C63 A good man is hard to do (2/2)
”Yes!” Otherwise, we won't sell it! ”
Everyone was unwilling to forgive him. Ling Xi's expression also became cold, and mockingly looked at everyone, ”Sell? Do you think this is a chance for you to choose? Either they would accept her protection, or those people would take over the land deed and leave the Yue Empire with nowhere to stay. This is our destiny. Do not regard his kindness as the capital for you to take an inch! ” As soon as Ling Xi's words fell, everyone shuddered.
Right now, the situation outside was truly quite scary. No one wanted to be deprived of a chance to live on. Since there were people willing to protect them, they naturally weren't willing to leave.
Seeing that these people didn't dare to say anything, Ling Xi coldly snorted and returned to her own residence.
On the other side. Mu Ru Yue and Xing'er were sent out by Xiao Bai. When they got on the carriage, Lil 'White bowed towards Murong Yue. ”Thank you for your kindness today, wangfei.”
”There's no need for you to do this. I've only done things that are beneficial to me.” Mu Ru Yue replied indifferently before ordering the carriage driver to drive away. At this moment, the sun had already set in the west. Mu Rong Yue spent her entire day in the south side of the city.
”Miss, they used you, why are you still helping them?” After listening to what Mu Ru Yue had to say on the way back, Xing'er became really angry.
However, Mu Ru Yue didn't agree. ”They used me, but I also gained benefits. As long as they don't cross my bottom line, everything is fine. ”
”But …”
”There's no such thing as' but '.” Mu Ru Yue interrupted her, leaned against the window, closed her eyes, and rested.
Occasionally, there would be carriages passing by the southern part of the city. On the way, Mu Ru Yue didn't encounter any accidents, so she safely reached the Royal Mansion. However, when he returned to the manor, the steward was waiting at the door.
His complexion turned awful.
Seeing that Mu Ru Yue had returned, he said coldly, ”Esteemed wangfei, your highness is waiting for you in the main hall.”
”Yes.” Mu Ru Yue nodded. She had played Zhang Zhili today and knew that something like this would happen. As for the steward's cold attitude? Mu Ru Yue didn't even bother to look at it. There was no conflict between him and her.
In addition, he could only keep a cold face. Other than that, what else would he dare to do?
Mu Ru Yue was brought to the hall.
At this moment, Feng Chen was sitting at the head of the table. She had an expression that was more exquisite than a woman's, and there was no trace of a smile on her face. He coldly looked at the man lying on the ground, as well as the woman who was kneeling and crying loudly, and the grieving assistant minister of the Ministry of War.
That's right, Zhang Zhili was the son of the assistant minister of the military, and the one crying was Madam Mu Rong.
”My lord, my wife has cut off all ties with the Mu Rong family. I agree. She asked for compensation, and I agreed. However … Prince, please tell this official why his nephew was beaten to such a state. Wife, this nephew, is the son of the vice minister of the military. He is the blood of the minister of the imperial court. Prince, please give me an explanation.
”Otherwise, this subject would have gone to His Majesty today to demand an explanation!”
The one who spoke was the Prime Minister of the Left. He said these words with righteous indignation, but his heart was already moved to the limit. That fool actually dared to touch Zhang Zhili. Who the hell was that Zhang family?!
Since she didn't want to live anymore, it was a good thing that she removed this eyesore from her son. To make the Mu Rong family lose an enemy!
Feng Chen listened to him coldly without even looking at him. She didn't say anything as her gaze fell on the door. A red figure slowly walked in. A pair of eyes that contained countless amorous feelings met his on that ordinary facial features.
Feng Chen then heard the woman say, ”What kind of explanation does the Prime Minister want?”
Mu Ru Yue's voice wasn't loud, but it was very abrupt here. Everyone looked at Murong Yue. When Madam Mu Rong, who was crying, saw Murong Yue, she instantly jumped up and pointed at her. If you hate the Mu Rong family, then forget about me! Why did you beat my nephew to such a state? Such savagery and savagery, how can you be worthy of being an imperial concubine! ”
