Chapter 353: What A Sly Fox Master Was

Zhao Qian quickly found out his masters intentions.

Something has happened at the Huaizhou military camp. Since the Grand Duke is now at Tianzhu Mountain, tell him to go and deal with the problem immediately, Long Yang ordered in a deep voice.

Yes, Zhao Qian responded at once, and only when he walked out did he realize that this was his masters plan of diversion.

Master wanted to lure the Grand Duke away so he could go and visit Second Miss Lu, right? Not only that, the Grand Duke would probably not be able to return for a while, being sent to Huaizhou out of the blue like that. When he finally returned, Lu Yunshuang would probably have recovered, and the Crown Prince could no longer use the Crown Princesss poor health as a reason to persuade the Grand Duke to send Aunt Zheng back.

What a sly fox Master was.

It was a double-layered trap!

Zhao Qian could not help shaking his head at the thought and even felt a little contemptuous of his master. He really pulled out all the stops just to see Second Miss Lu.

Sure enough, Long Chi had gone on a fools errand.

Only after arriving at the Grand Duke Mansion did he realize that the Grand Duke was not there. After asking the steward, he found out that the Grand Duke had left two days ago to escort the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess and Lu Liangwei to Tianzhu Mountain to pay respect to Buddha.

Long Chis expression became somewhat menacing.

Never mind other people, how could Royal Uncle not know this?

He was now engaged to Lu Liangwei, so there was no way he did not ask about his fiancees whereabouts.

If Royal Uncle knew this but did not bother to tell him in the imperial study just now, was he messing with him on purpose?

However, considering Royal Uncles broadmindedness, how could he possibly stoop to such petty and childish moves?

He felt that he was overthinking.

No matter what Royal Uncle did, it was unlikely that he would lower himself to such behavior.

The gloom in his heart cleared up.

However, Shuanger had not received any news about the Dowager d.u.c.h.esss visit to pay respect to Buddha, and this showed how little the Grand Duke Family thought of her.

Although it was not a huge event, the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess would not return anytime soon from her trip. Why did she not send a message about this to the Eastern Palace?

Long Chi was a little dissatisfied and felt even more upset that Shuanger was not in the Dowager d.u.c.h.esss good books.

The thought increased Long Chis doubts about Lu Yunshuang even more.

Since he had failed to complete his task, he did not want to go back to her place in order to avoid seeing her disappointed face, so he sent someone to inform her about the matter.

After learning about it, Lu Yunshuang was so furious that she smashed another cup.

Never mind Lu Liangwei; how could she be left in the dark about Grandmother going to Tianzhu Mountain to pay respect to Buddha? The Grand Duke Family had not even bothered sending someone to inform her.

Did they even think of her as family?

Seeing her trembling in fury, Hong Xiu hurriedly stepped forward and comforted her, Your Highness, please take care of your health. Its not good to get angry with unimportant people and harm your body.

Hearing this, Lu Yunshuang calmed down slightly and said with a cold gleam in her eye, Youre right. My good days have yet to come, so how can I ruin my body because of their shortsightedness? When I finally ascend the throne, theyll scramble to fawn over me, and when that time comes, Ill make them pay for the humiliation they brought upon me today.

Hong Xiu thought for a while and said, Your Highness, if you want to bring down Second Miss, nows a good time.

Lu Yunshuang quickly realized what she meant, and a smile bloomed on her cold face. You just reminded me.

The distance between Tianzhu Mountain and the imperial capital provided her the perfect opportunity to make her move.

Inform Chen Xuping as soon as possible, Lu Yunshuang ordered icily.
