Then fine, in any case… the spiritual bamboo shoots would eventually be exploited by profiteers like Manager Hu if they continued growing inside this Yating Court.
It would be better for her to harvest all of them and cultivate spiritual bamboo shoots on a large scale.
Hence, Qiao Mu kicked off her shoes and laid on the bed to take a delightful afternoon nap.
On the other end, Her Highness Consort Cheng did not even eat from her lunch spread and instead kept wringing her handkerchief as she paced around her room.
Besides Shu Quan, the eldest prince’s two side consorts, Side Consort Zhang and Side Consort Wu, were also inside the room.
Side Consort Zhang had always been clumsy in speech and was not too liked. Seeing that Consort Cheng had flared up, she shut her mouth and hung her head without daring to take a deep breath.
On the other hand, Side Consort Wu was a smooth character and hastily advised Consort Cheng, “Mother Consort, do not get anxious. This is only Manager Hu’s side of the story. Is it not simple for us to deal with a servant? There is a chance for us to make a comeback.”
However, Shu Quan sighed when she heard this.
She had long warned her husband that he had to first use his brain before doing anything. Don’t do everything just by relying on reckless courage.
The crown prince’s position was so secure that her husband wouldn’t obtain it just because he wanted to. If he had taken the crown prince’s side early on, how would there be so many troubles today.
Unfortunately, her words carried little weight, as her mother-in-law and her husband each had their own plans and calculations. She was like duckweed tumbling endlessly on the surface of the sea. She simply could not see the light at the end of the tunnel.
“Shu Quan, why aren’t you saying anything?” Compared to these two side consorts, Consort Cheng had more faith in her daughter-in-law Shu Quan’s brains.
Yet Shu Quan did not know what to say at this time.
When Consort Cheng saw her daughter-in-law like this, she couldn’t help but get agitated. “Shu Quan, why don’t you say something!”
“Mother Consort, I feel that if this matter is not handled properly, it will probably be difficult for the eldest prince to make a comeback in the future!”
“You, what did you say?” Consort Cheng got worked up. “Im-Impossible! Isn’t it just embezzling several lousy bamboo shoots? How could it implicate so much.”
Shu Quan gazed quietly at Consort Cheng. “Mother Consort, what the eldest prince has touched this time is the cultivation resources of Her Majesty the Queen Dowager, the king, as well as the princes and the royal family. The eldest prince has exchanged all these cultivation resources for mystic currency and supplies, but what does he need so much for? When the investigation goes deeper, do you think the king can let him off this time around?”
Upon hearing this, Consort Cheng plopped down mechanically into her chair.
Shu Quan swept a chilly gaze at her before walking outside with a shake of her head.
Needless to say, this incident was indeed the eldest prince’s doing on the surface. However, Consort Cheng and the entire Shu Family must have also been aware. Perhaps, the Shu Family had even received benefits.
She let out a self-mocking laugh. So what if she had been cautious?
With that kind of father, mother, mother-in-law, and husband, she did not need to even think of living well in this lifetime.
“Shu Quan, Shu Quan! You’re the cleverest one. Quickly think of a plan to let it blow over! Shu Quan! Shu?” Consort Cheng was stunned as she watched her daughter-in-law walk outside without turning her head, and she was so angry that she picked up a teacup and smashed it on the ground.
“This ingrate! Jiao’er deeply respects her and looks to her to make a decision for everything, yet at the crucial moment, she is actually so cruel and merciless!”
Side Consort Zhang was so scared that she did not dare utter a word.
On the other hand, Side Consort Wu smirked and exhorted as she helped Consort Cheng sit down, “Mother Consort, I see that Sister cannot be depended upon. Right now, we can only think of a countermeasure ourselves before we return to the palace.”
