Even though the Governor had given the order to keep this a secret, the people of the First City still found out about it.
This was because Murong Qian had been enraged when Murong Yang had returned and announced the Governor's order. As a result, the entire Murong family home could hear her cursing at Wen Ya. Her curses were extremely unpleasant to the ears and had spread far and wide. Even the people who passed by the Murong family home could hear her curses.
Hence, the people of the First City began to discuss this matter, especially those who had not participated in the assessment. They thought that Wen Ya must have done something to Murong Qian to make Murong Qian hate her to the bone.
Left with no other choice, the Wen family, under the Governor's tacit approval, offered an explanation for this matter. When they found out that Murong Qian had wrongly accused the Wen family of stealing pills, they snorted disdainfully. Hence, the entire First City was filled with curses against Murong Qian.
Everyone knew that Wen Ya and Murong Qian were like sisters. They never thought that Murong Qian would be so cruel and unscrupulous as to frame the Wen family. Yet after she had done this, she still had the gall to jump out and humiliate Wen Ya?
Hence, the people of the First City began to sympathize with Wen Ya. As for Murong Qian, whenever her reputation was mentioned in the First City, they would spit on the ground.
Even a three-year-old child would despise her actions!
For a time, Murong Qian's reputation was in shambles. In contrast, Wen Ya received unanimous praise.
Actually, if Murong Qian had not cursed Wen Ya every night in the Murong family home, perhaps the Governor would have suppressed this matter. However, they never thought that Murong Qian would destroy everything herself! As a result, she ended up with such a notorious reputation!
Of course, this matter has also reached Gu Ruoyun's ears. When she heard about this, Gu Ruoyun only smiled and did not say a word.
On the other hand, Zi Yun was enraged and exclaimed fiercely, "This Wen Ya is certainly vicious. It was clearly the Wen family who had stolen the Murong family's pills yet in the end, Murong Qian had framed them. She has won everyone's sympathy."
Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly when she heard Zi Yun's indignant voice, "There's nothing I can do. If Murong Qian goes up against Wen Ya, she won't be able to defeat her."
"Master, I don't think so." Chu Luo thought for a moment before replying, "Wen Ya had received the Secret Order's Left Emissary's help to successfully frame Murong Qian. If it had not been for the Secret Order's help, I'm afraid that she would not have been able to accomplish this so easily."
"No." Gu Ruoyun shook her head and laughed icily, "Given the current situation in the First City, the Governor would never allow the Three Great Protectors to have any sort of dispute! Hence, even without the Secret Order, the Governor would still place the blame on the Murong family. Only then would he be able to stop the war between the two great families. Otherwise, the Murong family would certainly not be able to restrain themselves and attack the Wen family. Once that happens, the First City would fall into chaos. "
If the Governor wishes to stop the two great families from fighting, he would have to put the Murong family members under house arrest. However, he must have an excuse to put them under house arrest. That excuse must be Murong Qian and Wen Ya's incident.
Hence, Gu Ruoyun knew from the beginning that it would not be easy to topple the Wen family.
"What a pity."
The Vermillion Bird's face was filled with regret, "I had thought that after I had injured Murong Qian, she would certainly start a dispute with the Wen family. I never thought that Wen Ya would be able to settle it so easily."
