My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker

CHAPTER 691-700

Chapter 691: Zombies

Therefore, she found people to put on an act, attempting to entrap Qiao Mu in her scheme.

If the act had been successful and Qiao Mu had really pitied that shrewd woman, taking her home out of benevolence, then she naturally would have had an opportunity to lurk beside Qiao Mu to continue slowly feeding her poison…

It was only a pity that Wu Xiaosu was young and quick-tempered, which led to her being roaringly impatient in handling matters. She was not dependable at all, so Qiao Mu was able to easily see through her scheme.

Qiao Mu flipped over her small hand, and a tiny golden cicada was reflected in Wu Xiaosu’s eyes.

The moment she saw this golden cicada, a trace of panic flashed past her eyes. Her entire body started trembling, which also caused her chains to clank, and she howled, “Qiao Mu, what do you want to do? I want to see Her Majesty the Queen! I want to see the Empress Dowager! I’ve been wrongly accused! Your so-called witnesses and physical evidence are all fabricated! I absolutely didn’t imprint the Wu Family’s seal on the inside of the rice sack!”

She had been framed, barefaced and undisguised!

Qiao Mu curved the corner of her mouth slightly and didn’t answer her. Instead, she motioned with her finger, and an immobilization talisman drifted out.

“You!” Wu Xiaosu’s entire body turned cold, and just as she opened her mouth wide in shock, she suddenly felt that her body was unable to budge.

Following which, Qiao Mu flicked her fingertip lightly, and that small golden cicada swiftly landed inside Wu Xiaosu’s mouth, sliding down her throat.

Wu Xiaosu’s eyes were filled with horror. If not for the fact that her entire body was stiffly immobilized at this moment, then she would certainly have already been shuddering as she lay limp on the floor.

Seeing her reaction, a faint snigger surfaced on Qiao Mu’s lips. Didn’t this Wu Xiaosu instruct that foolish woman on the street to go home with her and wait for an opportunity to approach her bedroom?

She wanted to stuff this golden cicada underneath her bed so that it would emit poisonous fumes that would accumulate over time?

Tsk, it didn’t need to be so troublesome. Just directly make Wu Xiaosu swallow it and let it nicely take effect inside her stomach.

After Qiao Mu finished sorting Wu Xiaosu out, she just left her frozen there, departing leisurely without undoing the immobilization.

When the two people, hand in hand, finally entered the palace and saw the queen, Eldest Madam Wu had sobbed so much that her eyes were puffy, while the Vassal King Consort of An’nan had drunk four hours’ worth of tea with a bellyful of rage!

Before the Vassal King Consort of An’nan could point fingers, the crown prince ordered someone to bring the evidence before the queen as he narrated the sequence of events while pointing out the established facts.

Seeing that the queen had turned silent, Eldest Madam Wu was anxious. “Wu Xiaosu is a pure and innocent maiden as well as the Vassal King Consort’s niece, after all. Won’t this imprisonment damage the royal family’s prestige? Moreover, she carelessly offended the crown prince consort only because of her childlike disposition. The crown prince consort didn’t suffer any harm at present, so why can’t we just take a step back and appreciate a boundless open vista…”

“A kingdom has its laws and a family its rules. From what you’re saying, does Eldest Madam intend to disregard the law?” The crown prince said dryly, “Three months in prison is already a light sentence. Could it be that Eldest Madam Wu wishes for your daughter to be beheaded due to gross disrespect instead?”
