Zi You thought of everything that he did to her and her mother. Her words grew sharper and she almost scolded out loud. âHow dare you mention mine and my motherâs love? How much have you loved me and my mother? You selfish, fickle, cold-blooded, lecherous scumbag!â
Zi You had endured it before because she hadnât completely destroyed Wang Yiping, but it was different now. Wang Yiping was caught in the act. Mu YingRui was someone who really cared about his reputation. Even without Zi You doing anything, Mu YingRui would deal with Wang Yiping for her.
Mu YingRui looked incredulously at Zi You. He was angry at first, but then he thought about his heartlessness towards Zi You and Dier. His face turned ashen and he bowed his head in shame.
But Zi You obviously didnât want to let him off. She continued, âWhen mother was here, you didnât care about her. You only knew how to have fun outside. When mother left and left her sole child, me, behind, have you ever cared about me? If it wasnât because of uncle, aunt, and grandfather, I would have been killed by you and your second wife already.
âYou want other peopleâs love? Let me ask you. Whom have you loved? Uncle took everything from you? What a joke. Everything uncle has is earned with his blood and sweat. But you take credit for everything that grandfather did. You complain all day long that grandfather is biased. But you donât think about what youâve done for grandfather.
âA son, a husband, a brother, a father â You havenât done any of them well. The worst thing is that your own son is killed by this malicious woman, but you can ignore it. Although a tiger is cruel, it wonât devour its cubs...... Youâre not even as good as an animal! So, you are destined to be alone!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Old General Mu (Shangguan LingRan) pretended to say sorrowfully, âActually, if Iâm biased, then my wife, I, and your grandparents are partial to you, but that made you lose your conscience. I thought you would change after your last lesson. It seems that Iâm wrong.
âSomeone, come drag this Nee Wang out and lock her up. Donât let her die. Wait until she gives birth and then send her and the adulterer to the yamen. Sue her and the Wang fu for deceiving our Generalâs Manor. They dared to deceive us that sheâs a maiden just so she can marry into our Generalâs Manor. How wicked! Lock...... Lock this rebellious son in the ancestral hall and wait for the Emperorâs punishment.â
âWait for the Emperorâs punishment?â Mu YingRui shouted, âFather...... Why? Why do I have to wait for the Emperorâs punishment?â
Old General Mu (Shangguan LingRan) looked like he hated iron for not being steel as he shook his head. âSoemone has exposed your corruption in Quanzhou when you were the prefectural magistrate there. Do you think you can hide it?â
âWait a moment, grandfather.â Zi You advised, âWe should at least let him see his good wifeâs true feelings for him.â
Zi You went over to untap Wang Yiping and Wang Shengminâs acupuncture points. She said mockingly, âSay it. Father treats you so well. He can even ignore his own children because of you. So, why did you betray him?â
Wang Yiping still had something she could count on. She thought that the Empress would certainly come save her. Besides, her affair with Wang Shengmin was already exposed. So, even if she pretended, it would be useless.
Thus, this woman looked up resentfully at âOld General Mu,â Mu YingYi, Nee Liu, and Zi You. She finally looked at Mu YingRui, but there wasnât any tenderness and affection in her gaze like in the past. There was only deep hatred.
