Chapter 328 - The Result Is Ou (2/2)

“Do you really think Murong Lanyi eloped with someone?”

Lady Murong’s face changed greatly. “Why do you know about Lanyi?”

The scandal of the Murong family had been kept a secret all this time. n.o.body knew that Lanyi had gone missing. They thought that she had gone out traveling.

“How can I not know? I even know where her body is buried.”

“What? Lanyi is dead? That’s impossible!” Lady Murong slapped her hand on the table and stood up. “Don’t think that you can make things up just because you’re Princess Zi.”

Gu Bailu shrugged. “If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do, but I need to remind you that your granddaughter is not as innocent as she appears. If you’re interested, you can ask Murong Huangtang about Murong Lanyi.”

Lady Murong snorted. “You’re just slandering Ningxin because you’re afraid that she’ll steal your position, right?”

“She failed to obtain it after years of work, what’s there for me to be afraid of? Just forget what you heard if you don’t believe me.”

Gu Bailu focused on the tea and stopped talking.

After all, to be the leader of a big family, Lady Murong couldn’t be a fool, and she would definitely investigate the matter if she grew suspicious.

If she couldn’t find any clues that Murong Lanyi had eloped, she would certainly believe Gu Bailu.

In that regard, Gu Bailu believed that Lady Murong was more reliable than Murong Huangtang.

She had followed Nan Ningxin back to the Murong family house precisely to talk to Lady Murong.

Otherwise, she would’ve already ended Nan Ningxin back in Prince Zi’s house.

Very soon, the midwife returned with Nan Ningxin, an awful look on her face.

Nan Ningxin had changed into another red dress, which made her look like a pink lotus flower blooming at the beginning of summer. The midwife walked to Lady Murong and whispered something to her, and Lady Murong sighed. “Princess Zi, it seems that you do owe me an explanation.”
