Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife Chapter 2239: 2236: Everyone Has Plans

Capítulo 2239: Chapter 2236: Everyone Has Plans

Chu Heng saw her reaching out in a daze, wanting a hug, and knew she hadn’t fully woken up from her nap. Feeling a bit helpless, he stopped her movent.

Ye Muyu murmured, as it was already past her usual sleep ti.

She simply climbed into bed, hugged the quilt, and drifted back into sleep in a daze.

When Chu Heng finished washing up and ca out, he saw her sleeping soundly, her face looking sweet and fragrant, and he couldn’t help but touch her cheek, smiling silently.

He didn’t wake Ye Muyu.

He walked over to the soft couch, the screen and bed curtains blocking the view of the inner chamber’s bed, and he opened the window beside him.

A gust of cold wind blew in.

A shadow appeared outside the window, reporting softly, “Master, they have taken action.”

“Hmm, proceed according to the original plan.”

“Yes.” The secret guard disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chu Heng read the secret letter, curling his lip in indifference.

He directly put the secret letter into the lamp’s fla, and soon it turned to ashes, much like how he treated those who opposed him in private, quite coldly.

The following morning.

Ye Muyu woke up to find the bed empty long ago.

Outside, the room was already brightly lit.

No one had called her to get up, and she didn’t know what hour it was.

“Su i.” Ye Muyu called out.

The door opened with a sound, and Su i walked in quickly, seeing her awake. She helped bring the outer garnt from the rack while instructing others to prepare warm water for washing.

When Ye Muyu finished tidying up, she had ti to ask, “What hour is it?”

“Two quarters past Chenshi period.” Su i answered promptly, explaining, “Before leaving, the master instructed us not to disturb you, my lady. The master is really good to you.”

Ye Muyu applied so cream on her face, not surprised by this remark. She usually wakes up early and without instructions, Su i and the other maidservants wouldn’t truly not call her.

Last night, she waited quite long.

But it was also because she was busier these two days.

Especially with the progress of the tavern case.

Although she managed to control the rumors in the capital, she knew the crucial part lay in the struggles within the official circle; it was uncertain who would win or lose. Therefore, she had to pay attention to every change, especially those ordinary people working in her shops.

These people mostly weren’t servants of the Chu family and didn’t have any contract, making it easy for them to be threatened into betrayal.

Even when she employed them initially, she knew today’s situation might occur.

Yet she didn’t regret it.

If she truly wanted to avoid trouble, she could have gathered servants like other powerful folks in Great Chu.

But then, what would be the difference between her and other noble families?

Just transforming from farrs to the powerful exploiting the people.

Since there was to be change, she had long been prepared.

“Did the master say anything else before leaving?” Ye Muyu asked.

Su i replied, “The master said not to worry, he will handle it.”

However, regarding the thods of handling, Chu Heng didn’t elaborate, and Su i dared not speak carelessly, naturally keeping silent without adding anything.

Ye Muyu’s eyes flashed with a thoughtful expression; based on her understanding of Chu Heng, he wouldn’t make baseless comnts.

However, the opponent seed busy on the surface; could it be a disguise for soone else to see?

Ye Muyu touched her chin, feeling less concerned because of Chu Heng’s words; if there was truly an issue, Chu Heng would say it directly.

“Has any other news co from Zhu San’s side?” Ye Muyu decided not to go out today.

Though she had revealed her identity last ti, everyone working in Jingyuan knew.
