After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister

Mu Wan Qing was dressed as cannon fodder playing a female supporting role in a book about a reborn female protagonist.

The heroine was her amazing and talented cousin. She was reborn on the w...

Chapter 298

Everyone stared blankly at the glorious woman walking up to the podium step by step. For the first time, they clearly realized that she was not only the head of the Mu family, but also a high-ranking official of the dynasty, the head of a department, and a big shot who held real power.

Hearing about it is one thing, seeing it with your own eyes is another, and the shock is enormous.

They held their heads high. It was the first time in their lives that they were so close to a second-rank official. Their hearts were involuntarily filled with pride and honor.

This is their patriarch! Theirs!

Some newly married wives were so shocked that their eyes widened. It turned out that there really were such powerful women in the world, so powerful that they were superior to all men.

The children were so excited that their faces flushed and their eyes were full of longing, wanting to become such people.

Facing countless burning gazes, Mu Wanqing, who was standing on the podium, felt nothing in her heart. As someone who had been giving speeches on stage as an outstanding student since childhood, she said she was used to it.

She looked at the people in the front room, "Sixth Uncle, are all the people here?"

Uncle Mu Liu held the sign-in sheet in his hand, with rows of check marks neatly marked on it. "To reply to the clan leader, everything is in place."

His attitude was more respectful than before.

Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, said a few opening remarks calmly, and quickly took control of the whole situation.

"Mu Yujun, Ye Meiniang, come out."

She called out the names directly, and everyone looked at Mu Yujun. Mu Yujun shivered uncontrollably, and Ye Meiniang's expression changed several times.

Mu Yujun stood up, looking humble, "Patriarch, half a year ago, I was in danger while doing business, and it was Miss Ye Mei Niang who saved my life. I am very grateful to her and became sworn sisters with her. I didn't expect that Yu Shi would misunderstand me. Now that I have explained it clearly to Yu Shi, she can understand."

"It's my fault for letting the clan leader worry about my personal affairs. I apologize to the clan leader."

Mu Wanqing looked at him deeply. He was a smart man, but unfortunately, his mind was not clear enough.

"Is this really a misunderstanding?"

Mu Yujun nodded without hesitation, "Of course, Miss Ye is already engaged and will be married soon. I don't want some false rumors to ruin her marriage."

Half a day was enough for him to arrange everything and get out of here safely.

Mu Wanqing asked casually, "Who are you marrying? Has the wedding date been set?"

Mu Yujun was particularly cautious, "Three days later, it will be a businessman."

Even though he had made arrangements, he still felt uneasy facing a woman who was so smart that she was almost a demon.

Mu Wanqing looked at him deeply, "Miss Ye, is that so?"

Mu Yujun has already discussed the statement with Ye Meiniang to ensure that there will be no mistakes.

However, he was too relieved too early. Ye Mei Niang turned against him and said, "Please ask Princess Qingping to make the decision for me. I am pregnant with Brother Yu Jun's child. I will be his in life and his ghost in death."

Mu Yujun was confused and his face changed drastically, "Mei Niang, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Ye Mei Niang looked at him affectionately, "Brother Yu Jun, I am already yours, how can I marry someone else? We are in love with each other and have made a vow to each other. Without you, I would rather die."

She looked at the pale Yu, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, "Sister Yu, I'm not here to destroy you, but to join you."

Yu's heart sank. Is this what men call a foolproof plan? A plan to help this couple get together, right?

I'm pregnant, haha.

Mu Wanqing: ...What a beautiful white lotus.

She also applauded, "It's really touching."

Ye Mei Niang was shocked, thinking that she was touched, "I believe that Princess Qingping is reasonable and will understand our feelings, right?"

Although she didn't know that Mu Yujun was so afraid of Mu Wanqing, this was obviously a family matter and it would be inappropriate for the patriarch to interfere.

But as long as Mu Wanqing is willing to help, all obstacles will disappear.

She was in no hurry. She entered the door first and then took steps one by one. She was determined to get the position of the principal wife.

If you know what’s best for you, get out of here. If you don’t, just go die.

Mu Wanqing looked at her eyes full of calculation and shook her head slightly. Mu Yujun's vision was not very good. He did not cherish his wife who had shared his joys and sorrows with him, but instead hooked up with that bad woman outside.

Once you enter the door, there will be no peace.

Others may not feel sorry for her, but she feels sorry for her three smart and clever children, who are all excellent office workers.

"There is only a thin line between affection and adultery, but they are worlds apart. Forgive my lack of knowledge and my inability to understand the adultery between you good brothers and good sisters."

After these words came out, Mu Yujun's expression froze. Ye Meiniang's eyes flickered, and she looked even more pitiful. "It is common to have three wives and four concubines. I just want to stay with the man I love as a concubine. What's wrong with that? I just love a man deeply."

These remarks disgusted the wives present, what a shameless bitch.

Aunt Mu Liu's hands were itching so much that she wanted to slap him.

She was a woman, and she saw through this trick at a glance. What affection? Bullshit. Why didn't any women come to him when he was in exile? When he got rich, some affectionate women would appear from time to time.

Although this is her biological son, this time she stands on the side of her daughter-in-law.

Mu Wanqing watched Bai Lianhua's performance quietly, "Mu Yujun, do you think so too?"

Mu Yujun didn't dare to say anything. He had planned everything well. He could get away with it just by following his plan. But who knew... "I just feel sorry for her."

A man suddenly jumped out to help, "It's really pitiful, Princess, you are also a woman, please be more understanding and tolerant."

"Yeah, she just fell in love with a man, what's wrong with that? Just let Brother Yujun marry her, it's not like he can't afford to support her."

A strange empathy between men.

"We have money and ability, so it's okay to have a few concubines. We haven't done anything against the law."

The men all jumped out and talked a lot, and in short, they all had one idea: they wanted to have three wives and four concubines.

The more they talked, the more excited they became, a bit letting themselves go. To put it bluntly, they all had this idea in their minds.

Or, they have already hooked up with someone, but they just don’t dare to bring the child home.

The Mu family has a clan rule that a husband must be monogamous and cannot take concubines. If there are no children, one is allowed to take a concubine after the age of 40.

This is too inhumane.

When we had no money at the beginning, we thought it was no problem. We were busy working hard and making money, so we didn’t have time to think about these things.

But now that I have money, my mentality has completely changed, and I become more creative and active.

When you are well fed and warm, you will think about □□.

And women's faces are becoming more and more ugly. They are fine with you when you are with them in times of trouble, but when you become rich, they will think you are old and ugly, and not charming enough.

Men are all pigs, haha.

Mu Wanqing did not interrupt these men who were talking nonsense. She just took out a small notebook and wrote down their names.

She doesn't avoid people and behaves openly. She looks at you before writing her name, telling you clearly that she is taking notes in a little notebook.

The men were a little scared. What did she want to do? A little panic!

I have seen many of the clan leader’s outrageous actions, but I am afraid when they happen to me.

Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows. "Go on, I'm listening."

A man raised his hand weakly, "Why did you... write our names?"

Mu Wanqing gave him a meaningful look, which made him feel uneasy.

However, she did not answer, but looked at the crowd, "Yu, what do you think?"

Yu's face was frighteningly pale, but her brows were firm. She fell to her knees in front of Mu Wanqing.

"I want a divorce. Please make the decision, Princess." For the sake of the children.

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell into unusual silence.

Uncle Mu and his wife closed their eyes, finally coming to this point.

Ye Mei Niang's eyes flashed. There is such a good thing? This Yu is stupid, which is good. It saves her from having to spend time to deal with him.

Mu Yujun was angry and anxious, "Yu, how could you bear to give up our relationship of more than ten years? How could you do this to me? How could you do this to our children?"

The three children looked at each other with unhappy expressions, but they were all well-behaved and didn't interrupt.

Don't be afraid, the patriarch is the most fair and strict and will protect them.

Yu originally wanted to give him a chance, but he wasted it. "You've already had a child out of wedlock, why haven't you ever thought about our relationship? Have you ever thought about our child?"

This is what she cares about most. Once she takes a concubine, she might not be able to defeat this woman and protect her children.

Mu Yujun didn't want to divorce. "I'm a man. It's inevitable to play along in the business world. Everyone does this. How can you fit in with others if you insist on being special? How can you talk business?"

A clear voice sounded, "So, you sold your body and it's dirty."

Everyone: ...

"Bullshit..." Mu Yujun was furious, and he became cowardly as soon as he raised his head, "Patriarch."

Ye Mei Niang couldn't hold back her expression and couldn't help but say, "Women don't understand business matters. You can't do business without socializing."

Everyone looked over at once with meaningful looks in their eyes, "How dare you confront the big devil? You're finished!"

Mu Wanqing chuckled, "Well, I'm just a woman who made a few tens of millions of taels casually and doesn't understand business."

This is Versailles at its best.

Saying that the Minister of Revenue, who is in charge of the world's money and grain, doesn't understand business shows that she has no common sense. No, she has no IQ at all. Everyone really looks down on this woman.

Mu Wanqing's expression became serious, "Mu Yujun, Yu, I allow you to divorce."

Her words were the patriarch's orders and no objection would be accepted.

"According to the rules of the Mu family, if a man is at fault, he must leave the house with nothing, and the family property must be divided equally between the children and the woman."

"You have three children, and the family property is divided into four parts. Yu is allowed to take one of the property and marry someone else, but the children cannot be taken away, and they will be returned to Mu."

She was decisive and swift in her decision making, and the first divorce case was handled in her hands.

As for the child born out of wedlock, who knows if his surname is Mu.

With tears in her eyes, Yu bowed deeply. She had never expected that this clan rule was true and that the clan leader did not blindly protect people with the surname Mu.

If she doesn't remarry and has property, it doesn't matter if her children are unfilial.

She just lost a man who had two hearts.

The children did not suffer any loss either. They received the family property in advance, had the protection of their family, and received the best education. Their life will not be too bad.

The whole audience was silent, silence, and silence again.

Many women have thought that divorce is not a bad thing, but for the sake of their children, should they reconsider?

Ye Mei Niang was struck by a bolt from the blue, her face changed drastically, "What? How can this be possible? Are you crazy?"

This is too outrageous. How can such a thing be possible in this world?

Ji Cheng rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't your brother Yujun tell you about this? This is the Mu family rule."

In fact, there are many men in the Mu family who have unfaithful intentions, and some of them even have mistresses outside. However, they dare not make it public and keep it secret very strictly.

What they fear is this clan rule.

This clan rule does not have much impact on the interests of all parties. Only those who make mistakes suffer losses.

The interests of the children are fully protected, and their grandparents will not step forward to stop it.

As for the woman's share, it was what she deserved. The Mu family made their fortune from the snack street, and it can be said that the whole family was engaged in this business.

Did the man transfer the family property in advance? When a divorce occurs, the clan's arithmetic group will be responsible for the settlement, and they can check every penny to ensure fairness and justice.

Ye Meiniang's reaction was the most intense. She was almost mad with anger. After all her hard planning, this was the result?

"How can there be such a family rule? This is unreasonable."

Everyone cast contemptuous glances at me. Look, this is what is called true love.

"Whether it's reasonable or not, I have the final say." Mu Wanqing knew that many men would not accept it, but this was her family. "If you don't accept it, I allow you to leave the family, or set up another branch."

Men: ...Just stay put.

Mu Wanqing looked over coldly, "Mu Yujun, are you convinced?"

Mu Yujun's face was pale, and he squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "I surrender."

At the very least, he was not expelled from the clan and could continue to work hard with the help of his family.

Mu Wanqing likes it when others are extremely angry but cannot do anything to her.

"You are single now, you can marry whoever you want, I have no right to interfere. But forget about this Ye Mei Niang, she is the mastermind of the incident, she harmed people, saved people, and used honey traps, she took on both the bad guys and the good guys, I don't know what she is planning."

There was an uproar at the scene, and Uncle Mu Liu couldn't help but think more.

Mu Yujun turned his head suddenly, stunned, shocked, and unable to believe it.

Ye Mei Niang was completely panicked and hysterically denied, "I didn't, you're talking nonsense."

Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows. Since Mu Yujun lost everything, all of Ye Meiniang’s plans had failed.

"Anyway, I've already reminded you, you can marry me if you want."

Mu Wanqing's eyes swept across everyone's face. "Everyone knows what happened to Mu Bo and the others. I'm sorry, but for the long-term prosperity of the family, I can only sacrifice my relatives for the sake of justice. I hope you can learn from the lesson and don't do stupid things."

She looked solemn and murderous, "I will protect you from being harmed by others, but if you dare to harm others, I will be your death warrant. I will not show mercy to anyone who stands in my way."

This was a warning, and it sent chills down everyone's spine.

"The more you use affection, the less it means. I don't have to be with the Mu family." Mu Wanqing had said everything she needed to say. If they still didn't understand, she would cut them off completely.

"Who else wants to divorce? Let's deal with it today."

As soon as she finished speaking, several women stood up at the same time, "Me."

"I."

"And me!"

The men's faces turned green, black, and they became autistic.

This life is unbearable!
