Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1426 - 1364: Conspiracies? She Can Play That Game Too

The sinister actions of Madam Wang and her daughter were soon discovered by Wufu. After all, their target was already someone related to them and the Commandery Princess Ping Xi. They just didn’t expect them to act so ruthlessly and swiftly.

"Is she dead?"

It was already August, nearing the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the night temperatures had dropped considerably. Wufu, draped in a cloak, sat by the window, holding a carving knife and carving a Small Seal in her hand.

"That girl’s got a tough life," Chi Wu averted his eyes slightly, saying, "They must have strangled her to the point of fainting, thinking she was dead, and then threw her into the Mass Burial Mound. When I rushed over, the girl had already been bitten by wolves but was still breathing. I fed her the Ghost Doctor’s Life-Prolonging Pill."

Wufu lowered her eyes and said, "First take her to the estate where Lu Xiaodie is staying."

"Yes." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Madam Wang and her people probably thought they could make this person a scapegoat..."

"Miss."

Just as Wufu started speaking, Zi Lan walked in, bringing news from the Shuntian Prefecture: the Wu Residence had taken the initiative to report the case to the Shuntian Prefecture, claiming that a maid held a grudge against Wu Yining for slapping Wufu and thus instigated the woman to commit extortion. Upon the maid’s exposure, she ran away secretly, and now Shuntian Prefecture was sending people to arrest her.

"Madam Wang was indeed decisive," Wufu sneered, saying, "Take the Ghost Doctor for a turn, revive that girl, and then have her ’surrender.’"

"Yes, Miss."

Wufu continued, "Madam Wang and her people think that pushing someone out will end things. For daring to touch my belongings, haha. Since they love using such despicable and melodramatic tactics, let’s let them see what it’s like to have a face that’s not looking so good. Add something nice to Wu Yining’s face."

"So blatant?"

"We’re not that close to them, so why beat around the bush? Revenge right away feels satisfying, otherwise how can it be called swift vengeance!" Wufu said, "Just add something that causes rashes, no need for the Five Poisons Liquid. Just make sure she can’t leave the house for ten days or so."

So what if they suspect it’s her doing?

Wufu’s willfulness didn’t surprise Zi Yu and Chi Wu, and they said nothing.

After all, you can’t just endure humiliation without doing anything. They used covert moves, while Wufu countered with a more open strategy, it’s quite fair!

"What about the Commandery Princess Ping Xi?"

Wu Yining had this idea, regardless of her motivation, it was malicious, and that Song Jiaoer wasn’t any better; she cooperated because she coveted the Zining Pavilion. Everything came from Prince Wei’s Manor, didn’t it?

"Wu Yining and Madam Wang tried to win over Song Jiaoer by having her Rongxiu Pavilion make several luxurious dresses for Song Jiaoer. Find an opportunity to have Song Jiaoer embarrass herself in front of Prince Zhou and Fan Wu while wearing those dresses, for instance, by having her dress tear apart."

Making a fool of oneself in front of a beloved and a rival, Wufu didn’t believe Song Jiaoer wouldn’t lash out and shift the blame. By then, Madam Wang and Rongxiu Pavilion wouldn’t escape punishment. Let’s see how they maintain their sisterly friendship?

Does anyone think they’re the only ones who can play dirty games? She can too, and killing a few birds with one stone is quite satisfying, just thinking about it is delightful.

Then, that night, while Wu Yining was sleeping soundly, some fine powder quietly fell onto her face and vanished without a trace.

The next day, Wu Yining was awakened by the screams of her maid. Seeing her own face swollen like a pig’s head, she fainted out of fright.

Meanwhile, Madam Wang was terrified. Things couldn’t be such a coincidence; it must have been Wufu’s revenge. Otherwise, how could her daughter’s face have suddenly become disfigured?

What scared her the most was that someone had broken into her daughter’s room, yet no one knew anything about it. Was it a ghost? How could that be possible!
