Chapter 220 I Want You to Experience the Pain of My Previous Life 1,000 times Over
Yu daren never thought that Zi You would be so articulate. She left him speechless and unable to refute a single word. He could only hold firm that Yu Lanxuan had never said those things and that Mu Zi You was framing her.
Yu daren immediately winked at Yu Lanxuan.
Zi You smiled lazily and said slowly, “Yu Xiaojie, I advise you not to play any tricks and just admit it. I have a thousand ways to make you and Duke Yongnan Shizi tell the truth. Try it if you don’t believe me.”
She was smiling and she spoke very gently, but Yu Lanxuan, Zhao HongXiang, and Yu daren felt a chill all over.
Zi You’s eyes were very cold. Her supple and soft curved eyebrows shrouded her translucent eyes. She seemed graceful and soft, but she looked at people strikingly, like water meandering. And because of this, when she smiled sincerely, her face turned soft. But when she was angry, her smile didn’t reach her eyes. Her cold eyes would shine with a cold and chilling light.
Yu Lanxuan and her father were stunned. At this time, the Emperor pointed to Yu Lanxuan and shouted again. “Why aren’t you examining her yet?”
Yu Lanxuan was completely stunned silly! She had thought that Zi You cared a lot about Zhao HongXiang and would never publicly suggest dissolving the engagement. So, she had gambled that Zi You wouldn’t publicize what she had told her today because Zhao HongXiang’s reputation would be destroyed.
She had thought that Zi You would suffer all sorts of grievances for Zhao HongXiang. Otherwise, it would have been absolutely impossible for Zi You to become engaged to him just to treat his leg and she absolutely would not have told Zhao HongXiang that he could never have any other women besides Zi You.
Yu Lanxuan had thought that Zi You wanted to monopolize Zhao HongXiang. If Zi You didn’t care about Zhao HongXiang, then why would she do so much?
It seemed that Yu Lanxuan was deceived. She was deceived by this darned girl.
If she had known, she wouldn’t have said those words to provoke Zi You and make her angry.
She regretted it, but it was too late. She was dragged away by two stout elderly palace maids. Before she could react, her pants were already stripped off.
The two elderly palace maids were old veterans who had experienced a lot in the Palace.
They originally looked at each other and thought that if this darned girl was still pure, should they do Mu Xiaojie a favor and break Yu Lanxuan’s hymen?
But they took a look now and looked contemptuous.
They went to report to the Emperor. “Emperor, Yu Xiaojie is no longer a maiden.”
“What?” The Emperor slammed a hand down on his chair and asked with interest to get to the bottom of it, “How do you know?”
The other elderly palace maid immediately explained, “It can be seen how long it’s been since she was pure. It can also be seen if one frequently sleeps with men too. This Yu Xiaojie isn’t much different than a woman who’s been married for a year. She must have been with a man more than once.”
Thunder struck everyone again!
The palace hall started to loudly discuss again. For a period of time, everything was said.
“I knew it. Her sister is so shameless, so how good can she be?”
“She obviously stole Mu Xiaojie’s fiancé, but she dares to be so arrogant and show off in front of Mu Xiaojie.”
“So extremely shameless! She isn’t married, but they’re already rolling around together.”
“Duke Yongnan Shizi is also nothing good! His fiancée’s life or death is unknown, but he has the mind to cheat. And he’s still pretending to look like his love is as deep as the ocean.”
“Duke Yongnan furen is even more shameless. She used Mu Xiaojie to treat her son’s leg, but she’s now framing Mu Xiaojie. So ungrateful. She’s our Great Yan shame.”
“……”
An imperial censor stood up and said indignantly, “Emperor, this matter must be severely punished! This is simply Great Yan’s disgrace!”
Imperial Censor Lu’s words were directly to the point. “Emperor, not only should you allow Mu Xiaojie to dissolve the engagement, but you also have to severely punish Duke Yongnan fu, Yu daren, and Yu Xiaojie. Only then can we combat their crooked and wicked thoughts and propose righteousness.
“Mu Xiaojie is the savior of the soldiers who went to pacify the rebellion. She is a hero to the citizens. But Yu Xiaojie and Duke Yongnan Shizi have greatly humiliated Mu Xiaojie. If that can be endured, that what couldn’t?! If the soldiers stationed in Nanjiang and the citizens find out, it will inevitably cause chaos. Emperor, you have to hand out severe punishments.”
The Emperor knew that Zi You’s prestige was very high for the soldiers and the citizens. When she entered the city today, the citizens spontaneously stood on either side of the streets. They didn’t call out “Old General Mu” or “Young General Mu.” Instead, they called out “Mu Xiaojie” and “Commander Mu.”
It was as Imperial Censor Lu said. If her engagement matter wasn’t taken care of properly, it would chill the hearts of millions of soldiers and citizens.
So, just as the Emperor started to speak, Zhao HongXiang howled like a pig was being killed. “Chen has been wronged, Emperor! Chen never had any contact with Yu Xiaojie, so how can Chen have an affair with her? Please investigate, Emperor. Chen is innocent!”
Yu Lanxuan never would have thought that Zhao HongXiang would push her out at this time and hide in the back at this critical moment. She thought about how scared she was in this past year and how much contraceptive soup she had drunk just to be with him.
However, more than a year of affection was worth less than Zi You’s words. For Zi You, he threw Yu Lanxuan away like a dirty rag.
Yu Lanxuan looked at Zhao HongXiang. Her heart felt as if thousands of knives were stabbed in it and then pulled out. She was in pain from the inside out, which made her lips tremble. She was stunned silly.
Zi You looked at her and felt very refreshed. Cheap wench! You’ve finally tasted the feeling of being betrayed by your lover, right? But this is just the beginning. From now on, I will make you live in Hell every day and make you wish you were dead!
After she decided, Zi You said to Zhao HongXiang, “Don’t be like this, Shizi. Yu Xiaojie sincerely likes you. Otherwise, how can she do such a crazy thing without any regard for her reputation? On account of her wholehearted devotion to you, you…… You should take responsibility for her. You’re a man. You can’t let a woman take all the blame for you.”
These words were scolding Zhao HongXiang for not being a man and pleading for Yu Lanxuan in a roundabout way. But Zi You understood Zhao HongXiang and Nee Chen very well. They viewed their reputations and personal interests very highly.
At this moment, Yu Lanxuan not only could not help Zhao HongXiang, but she would even destroy Zhao HongXiang’s reputation. Zhao HongXiang and his mother must certainly hate Yu Lanxuan to death.
Sure enough, Nee Chen immediately shouted, “You can’t marry her, Xiang’er. Her reputation is ruined. You absolutely cannot marry her.”
Since you don’t want to marry Yu Lanxuan, I definitely will not let you have your way! Zi You looked mockingly at Nee Chen before saying to the Emperor, “Emperor, please dissolve Chennu and Duke Yongnan Shizi’s engagement. Chennu is a descendant of a goddess. A god’s purpose is to help the world. Although Yu Xiaojie stole Chennu’s fiancé, she is a good friend after all. Chennu rather she let Chennu down than ruin her whole life. She did this muddleheaded thing for love. But we can’t force her to die or ruin her life because of this.
“Forget it. Gods are merciful. Let’s forgive them!” Zi You looked like she couldn’t bear it, but she was thinking, ‘You want to get rid of Yu Lanxuan? Keep dreaming! I want your son to marry Yu Lanxuan. I want you to keep scolding her and remember the shame that she brought to your fu. I want to see how loving they will be. I want you to experience the pain of my previous life 1,000 times over!’
Zi You could see that Yu Lanxuan was already pregnant. She wanted Yu Lanxuan to also experience the pain of losing her child. She would scheme so that Zhao HongXiang would personally kill his own child, just like he did to her in her previous life.
No one knew what Zi You was really thinking. They saw her speaking up for the two people and even persuading the Emperor to fulfill them, so they instantly praised Zi You. “She’s really kind. No wonder she’s the descendant of a goddess. Her good friend stole her fiancé, she was insulted by her future mother-in-law, and she was betrayed by both her fiancé and good friend. But she is still thinking for their sake. She is really virtuous and magnanimous.
The Empress Dowager immediately said, “Emperor, Mu Xiaojie is really a model of our Great Yan’s virtue and generosity! Even Aijia is moved by her. Forget it. Just do what Mu Xiaojie says and fulfill her kindness. However, Shizi’s actions are so preposterous. He is no longer worthy to be Duke Yongnan Shizi.”
Nee Chen shouted anxiously, “It’s not my son’s fault. It’s that cheap little wench who seduced him.”
“En……” Shangguan LingRan (Yi He) scolded, “This darned old woman is so unreasonable! Your son ate her clean, but he doesn’t want to take responsibility? Is he still a man? Of course a coward like this who dares to do it, but doesn’t dare to take responsibility doesn’t deserve to be Shizi. My imperial grandmother and imperial uncle are really wise!”
Zhao HongXiang saw that things were getting out of control. He anxiously and quickly begged Zi You for mercy. “You meimei, You meimei, I beg you! Don’t dissolve the engagement. It’s really that woman who seduced me. You should know that I love you. I have always vowed that I won’t marry anyone else but you!”
He tried to grab Zi You’s clothing.
Zi You quickly moved away. She looked at him like she was looking at a monster. She said mockingly, “Vow? What where you doing when I was in the Indian God Realm’s Blackwater Pool about to be devoured by poisonous snakes and crocodiles? You were being intimate with her. Where were you when all of my meridians were broken and I was about to die? You didn’t even come see me once. Vows don’t represent your heart. I said it before. I, Mu Zi You, don’t want glory or wealth. I just want to be with one person for a lifetime!”
