It was only then that everyone came to a realization. As the adopted son of the Eldest Princess, Mu Yigao had also been arranged by the Eldest Princess for him. If Du Muzhou was the life of a fiend, would the Grand Princess be able to scam her foster son?

The old Daoist refused to accept this. Although he was an unorthodox expert, he still knew a bit about matters of life and death. "Words have no basis. If the Eldest Princess had deliberately fabricated Madam Du's birthday, it would have been a lie."

When these words were spoken, everyone was astounded.

To slander the imperial princess, and to think that she was the emperor's most beloved younger sister, wasn't this courting death?

The Second Prince had great respect for his aunt. He walked over and kicked the old Daoist in the face, causing him to fall to the ground. "If you continue to speak nonsense, I'll kill you now."

The old Daoist knew that he had lost his tongue, but if he were to admit that the old Daoist was lying now, he would most likely die without a burial ground. He gritted his teeth, "This Penniless Priest said the wrong thing, but Miss Du's words are true."

In reality, his heart had already begun to panic. What he had said a few years ago, Du Zhong did not doubt it at all. He had originally thought that the Xiao Clan would be so angry that they would withdraw from the marriage contract if he had said so. He hadn't thought that the Xiao Clan would defend Du Mu Zhou like this. Now that he couldn't stop riding the tiger, he regretted taking the deal even more.

"Amitabha, don't take my words to heart." A monk's voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.

Du Mu Zhou looked over and saw Grandmaster Wu Chen walking over with a benevolent expression.

She couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as Xiao Qing Qing nodded to her.

Mu Yi Shao looked at the approaching person and immediately understood in his heart. So Du Mu Zhou had asked Xiao Qing Qing to find someone to invite Grandmaster Wu Chen.

Remembering that his Little Flower had something to ask of his second uncle, and yet didn't come looking for him, he felt a wave of depression in his heart.

Grandmaster Wu Chen was an esteemed monk of the Xiang Guoguo Temple. He often discussed the Dao with the Emperor. He had quite a bit of prestige in the Empire of Dongyuan.

Currently, he was living in the Imperial Palace, which was not something that ordinary people could ask for.

Grandmaster Wu Chen walked over and brought his hands together. "This old monk was originally under the orders of His Majesty and specifically came here to recite the Book of Life for Old Madam Du. I actually heard someone spouting nonsense, calling a deer a horse. "

When everyone heard this, they naturally believed in Grandmaster Wu Chen's words even more.

Master Wu Chen continued, "Back when Madam Du was pregnant with Eldest Miss, she had gone to the old monk to ask for a lot of money. Even if it is the fate of the Great Miss, even if I am destined to be the Nine Day Heavenly Slaughter Star, I have the protection of the Eight Dragons, allowing me to live a rich and auspicious life. Only the reverse was a problem, so I asked Mrs. Du to name her Wooden. "You only saw the heavenly fiends of the nine days and you already claimed that Miss Du is the life of a fiend. You truly discredit the morals of cultivators."

The old Daoist Priest's face was ashen as he collapsed to the ground.

"Someone, put him in prison for me, slander the Royal Princess, slander the Du Family's Eldest Miss. "Sin deserves to be punished." At the Second Prince's command, a few guards escorted the old Daoist Priest and began to hold him captive.

"Second Prince, I was wrongly accused. "Someone intentionally allowed me to say that …" Before he could finish his words, Second Madam Ye's bloodthirsty gaze abruptly silenced him.

His concubine and son were still in the hands of the second wife, and he couldn't allow his family's incense to burn out.

"Speak, who told you to do this?" Du Mu Zhou asked.

"No, no one. I made it up. " The old Daoist hurriedly changed his words and obediently took them away without any resistance.

Du Zhong felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart. Grandmaster Wu Chen had said that his daughter would be rich and prosperous all her life. Didn't that mean that once the Du Family made it to the Residence, their career would be a piece of cake?
