Murong Ci kept the secrets of the Military Supervisor Facility in a very hidden place. Whether it was real or fake, there would always be an opportunity for verification in the future.
Thinking that Murong Yu already knew she was the owner of the World's Greatest Manor and the Phoenix Building that she had cultivated secretly, she had trouble sleeping and eating.
She always felt that he would take action and wipe out her little power.
This uneasy feeling of being held in his hand and not being under control of your own life and death was very bad.
On this day, she went directly to the World's Greatest Manor.
When Rong Zhan learned that Murong Yu already knew that she was the boss behind the Phoenix Building and the World's Greatest Manor, he was surprised.
"We acted so cautiously. I didn't expect that the Regent would still learn about it."
He suddenly felt a chill on his back.
"The Regent's eyes and ears are all over the City, so it is really hard to guard against."
"I'm worried that he will do it."
Murong Ci frowned.
"If he wanted to do it, he could have done it long ago, why wait until now?"
"I don't know what he has in store."
"The Owner needn't be too worried.
The Royal Palace hasn't moved much lately, and it's unlikely that he'd attack the World's Greatest Manor and the Phoenix Building."
Rong Zhan said with relief.
"I hope so."
After the events of Linglong Pavilion and Xuanyuetan incident, she had a deeper understanding of Murong Yu.
This person's brain was extremely deep, strategizing, and exhaustive, which was terrifying.
She couldn't compare with him at all with his mind.
Seeing her frown, Rong Zhan was worried, and said:
"If the Royal King wants to do something, why tell you that he already knows you are the Boss behind the scenes?
Since he told you, it means he won't do it."
Murong Ci thought about it:
"I can't guess his thoughts.
Maybe he wants to make me anxious all day, as I sleep or eat, panic all day long, make my mind confused, and finally strike whenever I least expect it and be defeated.
What he is best at is the mind attack."
He found that she was indeed too worried, and her mind was confused,
"Well, let me send someone to watch the Regent's movement secretly, and I will report to you as soon as I have news."
She nodded.
He soothed:
"The more you are at this state, the more you have to be calm.
Remember. If the Owner is in chaos, then the other party will have the opportunity to take advantage of it."
Murong Ci suddenly realized it.
'Yes, if I'm in a mess, wouldn't it be exactly according to Murong Yu's plan?
Be sure to calm down!'
Leaving the Manor, she decided to go to a restaurant with Qin Ruo to relax:
A new restaurant had been opened in the Capital recently, called Songhe Tower.
She heard that you can eat all kinds of birds and beasts.
Their motto was:
"There are only things you can't think of, and nothing you can't eat."
The carriage stopped beside the restaurant. They just got off the carriage and saw that the street in front of the restaurant was surrounded by many people, clamoring, as if something was happening.
They squeezed in the crowd to check.
It turned out that there was an inn opposite the restaurant, and a girl wanted to rest there, but was blasted out by the clerk.
This inn was only a small inn, and two guys stood at the door with broomsticks to stop the girl from entering.
The girl was wearing a worn robe, her clothes were stained a lot, and her hair was messy, with grass clippings sticking to it.
She pleaded sadly:
"I won't give trouble, please let me stay for one night."
"Our shopkeeper said, it's full and there are no rooms left."
A clerk said roughly.
"But I've obviously just seen someone leaving the room, can't I offer double the silver?"
the young girl asked in a low voice.
"If you don't leave now, I'll be forced to chase you away."
The other guy raised his broomstick and threatened.
"I beg you, let me stay for one night."
The girl was earnest, so she almost kneeled,
"The other inns are full, and I don't have a place to stay at. Please be kind."
"Poor girl, but she is carrying a coffin, how could the inn let her stay?
Wouldn't that scare all the guests away?"
Someone in the crowd shook his head and sighed.
"Right? Which inn would ever accommodate a girl with the coffin of a dead person in it?"
※※(N.B.) And this is the start of the next arc, the Rong Story arc. In the Manhua only one of the three stories was introduced, and not even to its full (the third one, while the first and second one were not told in the Manhua).
Also, as you may notice, Murong Chang is still alive and unlike in the Manhua will never commit suicide (that's a complete invention of the Manhua).
It was confusing how they narrated the arc of Rong Story after the Princess Zhaohua and her Consort Husband accident.
In the Manhua the order was: Princess Zhaohua castrate the husband. >> Concubine Xiao is killed. >> Miss Rong arc. (Which ends without a solution, since in the Manhua they made Murong Chang kill herself and nothing was solved), while in the novel one happens after the other until the climax in which all three arcs concluded together.
Anyway, here is the biggest turning point and the different interaction between Murong Ci and her sister in the novel will also be a big gap with the Manhua.
Hope you can enjoy the real story and the events of how things should have been and how bad they were narrated and mixed or even invented in the Manhua resulting in confusion and messing storyline.
