Ms. Doctor Divine - Chapter 1792

1792 Interrogation to Duke North 1
So, if Ouyang Mingjing had intentions of rebellion, this was the perfect opportunity for him.

Moreover, his presence was desperately sought after by the various schools nowadays.

With a confident gaze, Zheng Chenyi glanced at Gu Ruxue, ready to assert that choosing him had been the right decision. Now, even the Head of Snow Territory was personally at his doorstep.

Gu Ruxue was genuinely surprised.

While she had placed some hope in Zheng Chenyi, she had also lost a significant amount of confidence she had when she believed she would marry the Crown Prince. After all, Zheng Chenyi was merely a Duke. Nevertheless, she decided to take the risk; it was always better to take action than do nothing.

But now…

The situation had changed.

She even began to believe that their shared goal would come to fruition.

Zheng Chenyi was being sought not only by Piaomiao Pavilion but also by Snow Territory.

Gu Ruxue was well aware that Snow Territory wielded far more power than Piaomiao Pavilion, as their conversations had occasionally revealed.

She showered Zheng Chenyi with flattery and smiled. “Congratulations, Mr. Duke. You are now one step closer to attaining what you desire!”

Zheng Chenyi’s previously somber face was now adorned with a smile. “Hahahaha, you know how to flatter people. Don’t worry, once I achieve what I want, you will receive your share as well!”

Gu Ruxue’s smile gleamed brightly, as if she could already envision herself as the future queen.

“Go and bring him in. I’m eager to have a pleasant conversation with him!” Zheng Chenyi proclaimed proudly.

The City Lord himself had come to their doorstep, sparing Zheng Chenyi the need to personally greet him. All he had to do was wait here until Ouyang Mingjing arrived.

Maintaining a composed demeanor was crucial. After all, the man was coming to him personally!

Growing up in Duke North Mansion, Zheng Chenyi had gained insight into worldly affairs. He understood that sometimes, maintaining a calm composure without compromising one’s own status was essential. Only when you respected yourself would others respect you.

Dressed in a moonlight-white blouse, Ouyang Mingjing entered expressionlessly, accompanied by the housekeeper.

Zheng Chenyi put on a hospitable expression. “Welcome, City Lord of Snow Territory. What brings you here?”

Simultaneously, he gestured for his servants to pour the tea. It was imperative for him to maintain an air of arrogance, yet he also needed to show respect to the City Lord of Snow Territory. After all, he required the assistance of Snow Territory.

Ouyang Mingjing disregarded the pleasantries and focused on suppressing his anger as he addressed Zheng Chenyi. “Phoenix Girl paid a visit to your mansion yesterday, didn’t she?”

Zheng Chenyi was taken aback momentarily, but swiftly composed himself.

So, Ouyang Mingjing had come to Duke North Mansion to inquire about Phoenix Girl’s visit? That made sense.
After all, it was his own accomplishment, wasn’t it?

“Yes,” Zheng Chenyi replied directly.

“And what did you do under the influence of Piaomiao Pavilion? You drugged Phoenix Girl! She placed her trust in you and never doubted you. But you betrayed her,” Ouyang Mingjing interrogated sternly
