When Duan Yunfei heard Xiao Gui mention Mu Chuyang, her heart immediately tensed up.
"What happened to Young Prince Mu? Tell me quickly. "
"Yun Fei, don't be in such a hurry. Let's listen to what he has to say first."
Wu Shan was also very anxious in his heart, but if even he panicked at this moment, and something really happened, who would be able to comfort Duan Yunfei?
Xiao Gui took a deep breath, allowing his emotions to calm down. After everything was ready, he started to pour out all the rumors he had heard from Duan Yunfei.
"There is a rumor circulating in the Princess Palace that you and the Young Prince Mu are going to get married... Yes... "It's hidden …"
In the end, he was still afraid. After all, he was talking about the affairs of the imperial family without thinking, and if he were to say a word, his head might even drop to the ground.
"What secret?" You can rest assured that I will not punish you. "
This kind of promise did not really make Xiao Gui feel relieved. Although Duan Yunfei was a sensible person, since this was related to Mu Chuyang, Xiao Gui could not guarantee that Duan Yunfei would not take it lying to him.
But no matter how worried they were for their own lives, Xiao Gui could only stammer and continue, "They said that the Young Prince Mu was not worthy of you, and that the marriage was simply requested by the Prince Mu, and that His Majesty did it because of his many years of friendship with the Prince Mu, and because of the prestige the Prince Mu had in the army previously, that's why … I heard that there are also rumors circulating outside the palace. "
Halfway through Xiao Gui Zi's words, Duan Yunfei understood what he meant.
"Pa!" A crisp breaking sound made all the people in the hall shiver uncontrollably. Duan Yunfei's anger caused the teacup in her hand to shatter.
The broken teacup pierced into Duan Yunfei's palm, blood flowing out from the veins on her palm, causing people to tremble in fear.
"Yunfei, your hand." Wu Shan was the first to discover Duan Yunfei's wound, but seeing that Duan Yunfei seemed to not know anything, Wu Shan became anxious to death. Xiao Yang, quickly, bring the medicine box over. "
Duan Yunfei thought about what Xiao Gui Zi had just said, but she could not feel the pain coming from her palm.
There were rumors coming from the market, and logically speaking, they wouldn't be sent to the palace so quickly. After all, people in the palace couldn't leave without being instructed.
However, in one night, not only was this matter discussed by everyone outside the palace, but there were also such rumors within the palace. It was obvious that someone was up to something.
"This is truly outrageous. There is clearly someone secretly causing trouble here." Just as Duan Yunfei wanted to smash the table, he realized that her hand was being held by Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang treated Duan Yunfei's wounds and felt her heart ache. He cursed the people who spread the rumors, if not for them, Duan Yunfei would not have been injured.
"Yun Fei, there is someone behind this, I agree with you. It's just that the most important thing for us to do now is to discuss this matter with Chu Yang. You need to know, we don't know why that person would spread these rumors. "
Duan Yunfei nodded her head lightly. She knew that there must be something fishy going on.
After Xiao Yang finished treating his wounds, Duan Yunfei called Xiao Gui and the others out. What he was about to say was not something they should listen to.
"Yun Fei, do you have any thoughts?"
Seeing Duan Yunfei calling the random people out, and even instructing them to close the doors tightly, Wu Shan must have thought of something.
"Wu Shan, when I think about it, we seem to have missed the most important part."
"What?" Wu Shan's thoughts were not as fast as Duan Yunfei's, when Duan Yunfei had an idea, Wu Shan was still confused.
"Think about it, when did I get engaged to Chu Yang?"
Even after hearing Duan Yunfei's advice, Wu Shan still did not understand. His face was full of doubt, "Isn't it yesterday? What does this have to do with these rumors in the womb? "
"Naturally, it has nothing to do with the content, but you also said that it was only yesterday's matter, and even said it was last night's matter. Logically speaking, other than the people who were there at the time, I only told you and Xiao Yang and Chu Yang. Chu Yang should have only told Prince Mu and the others.
Wu Shan finally understood the meaning of Duan Yunfei's words, "So you feel that there was a spy inside the royal study that day?"
"Yes, that's what it means. It was not surprising that there were people from other palaces in the Imperial Study. In fact, Father had known all along, but had not placed him in his eyes at all. It's probably just my brothers who are trying to find out more information in the royal study for the sake of becoming the crown prince. "
Yuwen Di understood this in his heart, so he was very clear about it. Forget about the people who were planted by the princes in the imperial study, even the imperial concubines might have bribed the eunuchs serving in front of Yuwen Di.
"However, I don't know which of my brothers made the masterpiece this time, but it has really broadened my horizons."
Duan Yunfei snorted, such a despicable method was actually done by the Jin Country Prince, if word of this got out, it would really be a joke.
"However, Yun Fei, if it was really done by a prince, then what is he after?"
Firstly, the princes and princes did not treat Duan Yunfei the way Duan Yingluo did. Although Duan Yunfei was favored by them, she was still a princess in the end, and would not hinder them from vying for the throne. Secondly, Duan Yunfei also treated them with respect on a daily basis. Although the siblings weren't close, they didn't have any grudges with each other.
When he thought about Mu Chuyang, Duan Yunfei felt that it was even more impossible. After all, Mu Chuyang did not lead any troops nor became an official.
It was because of this that Duan Yunfei felt even more troubled.
"Wu Shan, I also don't understand this matter. However, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. I do want to see who the person behind this is and what kind of secrets it has. "
"Alright, I'll do the same for you." I'll make another trip to the palace tomorrow. If there's any news, we'll discuss it together. In my opinion, Chu Yang is definitely investigating this matter as well. Do you think we should discuss this with Chu Yang? "
"No, we'll check for ourselves first."
The rumors were bad to hear, but how could Mu Chuyang bear to be discussed about him like that?
Duan Yunfei decided to investigate this matter with Wu Shan first. When the matter was clear, she would tell Mu Chuyang because he wanted to protect Mu Chuyang's face.
Right now, Duan Yunfei was still worried about Mu Chuyang's feelings the most, but she had to endure it and not let the person behind her succeed.
