This stirred up a hornet's nest. Dong was a brother-supporting woman, and her mind and eyes were filled with her natal family and her younger brother.
Her heart bleeds as she sees her beloved brother suffering so much.
"Take her down."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the servants she brought with her rushed forward. As for Mu Bo, he stood aside to comfort his brother-in-law. "Whatever she did to you, you will return it to her later."
Dong San's hands were tied with thick gauze, his face gloomy, "I want her to be my eighth concubine, and to torture her day and night, so that she will know the consequences of offending me."
"That's fine, as long as you're happy..." Mu Bo loved his brother-in-law and was extremely indulgent towards him, "Eh."
Mu Wanqing stood still, looking at the crowd rushing towards her with an indifferent expression, but no one could reach her and they were all knocked to the ground by the guards.
Mu Bo and his wife were stunned. This fighting power was too strong.
Mu Bo protected his wife and took a few steps back, looking alert.
His mind raced, "Come on, report to the government, saying there's a spy from another country in the city, and we can't hold on any longer."
Mu Wanqing's eyes turned cold. "You bastard, you just spread rumors as soon as you open your mouth."
Since you can't do it yourself, you use the government, completely disregarding the lives of others and the reputation of your family. If this is the case, there is no room for you.
This touched her bottom line.
She deliberately changed her voice, "Mu Bo, you framed others for your own selfish reasons. You are unworthy of being a member of the Mu family. Princess Qingping's reputation has been ruined by villains like you."
Mu Bo was afraid that she would take action, and he was so panicked that he didn't bother to listen to her voice. "It's everyone's responsibility to catch spies. How can a spy like you be able to get involved with Princess Qingping?"
Dong was very cunning, "Yes, everyone come and catch the spy."
With a loud shout, the people around were called over, as well as the police officers who were maintaining law and order nearby. They all rushed over to catch the spy.
Mu Bo protected Dong and retreated to the safest place behind the crowd.
Mu Wanqing gave them a cold look, made a gesture, and a guard flashed away.
Mrs. Dong yelled at the top of her lungs, "Oh no! One spy has escaped. We can't let these escape as well."
The common people and officials surrounded Mu Wanqing and his group and started fighting impulsively.
The guards protected Mu Wanqing in the middle and fought off the people who rushed over, but they were careful not to hurt anyone.
In the midst of all the chaos, “the army came.”
A regular army rushed over aggressively, each man fully armed and holding a sword.
The leading officer shouted, "Where is the spy?"
Mu Bo pointed at Mu Wanqing, "It's her. She was a spy from Northern Chu who sneaked into Liangcheng. She was discovered by my brother-in-law, who beat him up."
When the general saw the woman who didn't show her face, he instinctively felt that there must be something wrong with her. "Capture her first."
"Wait a minute." Mu Wanqing was furious. The reputation she had worked so hard to maintain was ruined by these unworthy descendants. "You are government officials. How can you easily believe the false accusations of some villains? Aren't you going to do any investigation?"
The general was stunned for a moment. She was so powerful that she didn't seem to be guilty.
Dong San shouted, "You are the villain. My brother-in-law is from the Mu family, the Mu family of Princess Qingping. He said you are a spy, and you are."
Mu Wanqing wanted to beat him to death. He was so arrogant. She herself didn't dare to speak like that. "Sir, do you think so too?"
Mu Bo's eyes darkened slightly, "Brother Qian, this is a spy, let's arrest him first and then investigate."
The call of "Brother Qian" made Mu Wanqing raise her eyebrows and asked meaningfully, "So, in the past, have the Mu family caught few spies? What was the final outcome of these people?"
"Huh?" Lord Qian's expression changed several times. Although he was young, his beast-like instinct told him that this woman was not easy to mess with and that offending her would be very miserable.
Mu Bo had a bad feeling and was extremely anxious.
"Brother Qian, this is her stalling tactic. She is obviously waiting for her accomplices to rescue her. Stop wasting time talking to her and arrest her before she escapes."
"A delaying tactic?" Mu Wanqing no longer changed her voice, and it had all the desired effects. "Mu Bo, who do you think you are? How dare you order the court officials around? Just because you have the last name Mu? Are you worthy of it? Are you worthy of this last name?"
Mu Bo's heart sank. How come this arrogant aura was so similar to that of one person?
Impossible, she can't be here.
Mrs. Dong frowned, "Brother Qian, she is deliberately slandering Princess Qingping's clansmen. Princess Qingping will be very unhappy..."
"Surname Qian?" Mu Wanqing has already blacklisted this couple. They are using her name to bully others. They want to die.
She looked at the general carefully for a few times, "He looks somewhat like Mr. Qian Dayou, but is he his nephew?"
Upon hearing this, the general dared not take action again. This was obviously not the right situation. "That's my father. Do you know my father?"
Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "Lord Qian is a good official with a clear mind, capable and pragmatic, very good."
This was the tone in which a superior commented on his subordinates, and the generals became even more frightened.
A voice suddenly sounded, "This humble official greets the princess, thank you for your praise."
"Father." The general was shocked.
Lord Qian, who came hurriedly, bowed deeply. Princess Qingping was his mentor, and because of her promotion, he was able to become one of the core figures of the Xiliang Group.
Mu Wanqing then took off her scarf, revealing a face as beautiful as a peach. Everyone was stunned and knelt down.
It really is the princess. They are so lucky today.
No, they actually arrested Princess Qingping as a spy and almost hurt her by accident. What a sin.
So the question is, the one who caused all this is Mu's son, what is he trying to do? Rebellion to seize power and the position of clan leader?
What a sin! Without Princess Qingping, what would the Mu family be? They are blinded by greed.
Mu Bo's eyes went dark, the world was spinning, it was over! It was really Mu Wanqing!
She covered her face on purpose, deliberately making things irreparable, and using public opinion to deal with them.
Taking advantage of the public opinion, he cleaned up the house and restored the reputation of the Mu family and also won back the hearts of the people.
As expected of Princess Qingping, her mind is unfathomable.
But he actually offended someone to death, and became the chicken chosen to be killed to scare the monkeys.
Mu Wanqing had met Lord Qian yesterday, so she didn't say much and greeted him with a smile, "Lord Qian is here. You are the first to arrive. You are still strong and healthy."
Lord Qian had worked with her before and knew her character well. He knew that she had made such a big fuss and had no intention of letting it go peacefully.
That's right, even an inexplicable person used her name to severely damage the reputation of the Mu family.
He had heard of this a long time ago, but if the people don't report it and the government doesn't investigate, and if no victims come forward, how can the government follow the procedures?
"I am the closest to you. The princess is still as charming as ever, and she still has such a clear distinction between love and hate."
Mu Wanqing laughed at herself, "Who would have thought that I would become a spy in the mouth of the Mu family? As soon as he opened his mouth, he made up all the stories. The Mu family has become successful. Haha, it's because I, the clan leader, am useless. Anyone can throw dirty water on me."
She was framed by her own people, who would blame her? They would only pity her and hate those who hurt her.
This is her clear plan.
But if you act honestly, how could you possibly fall into this trap?
Mu Bo felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet. Oh no, they were going to use him as a sacrifice.
His legs went weak and he fell to his knees with a thud. "Chief, I... I was confused for a moment and was fooled by someone. I..."
Mu Wanqing didn't bother to look at him, but bowed to everyone around her. Everyone was shocked and returned the greeting. "Princess, you can't do that."
"I, Mu Wanqing, sincerely invite the officials and people of Liangcheng to witness my Mu family's cleansing of its ranks."
The scene was quiet for a moment, and then everyone became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and expressed their support for all her decisions.
Who doesn't want to watch the excitement? Especially such a gratifying scene, there is a lot of resentment.
Mu Wanqing's eyebrows were cold and her whole body exuded a sense of authority. "If there are people who have been bullied by the Mu family, please stand up and accuse them bravely. I swear in the name of Princess Qingping that I will investigate it thoroughly and will never tolerate it. I will always stand on the side of the kind people for the sake of justice."
Her words were powerful, resounding and her attitude was clear.
"Of course, we will also compensate the victims. If nothing else, money is no problem."
Everyone believed this. She was still the Princess Qingping loved by the people of Xiliang. She was fair, strict, selfless, and dedicated to the welfare of the people.
Of course, those bad things were done by the unworthy members of the clan. Which family doesn't have bad people, right?
Some ran away to inform friends and family.
"Greetings, Princess." Sun Tongzhi and other five people from the think tank arrived one after another.
The situation was so overwhelming that it made Mu Bo despair and feel cold in his heart.
So, when he saw his father, he ran over and said, "Father, save me."
Mu Laoqi slapped him on the head, and said angrily, "Look at what you have done. You even dared to cheat the clan leader. You are so bold."
Mu Bo was very scared, "I was wrong, it was all my fault, I was confused for a moment."
Mu Laoqi was both annoyed and distressed. "I've told you a long time ago that women can be pampered but not spoiled, but you just didn't listen. Look at how much trouble the Dong family kid has caused."
Mu Bo kept admitting his mistakes, mixed with screams of pain after being beaten.
While beating his son violently, Mu Laoqi looked in the direction of Mu Wanqing, half of which was for her to see.
Unfortunately, Mu Wanqing didn't even bat an eyelid and only spoke to the think tank.
On the other side, the victimized people came running when they heard the news.
In an instant, all kinds of people gathered in this world.
After the owners of each branch of the Mu family arrived, Mu Wanqing began to clean up the house.
"Mu Bo, you accused me of being a spy and wanted to kill me..." It was a royal bomb at the beginning.
Mu Bo's face was as pale as paper, and he knelt on the ground and trembled. "No, no, no, it's a misunderstanding. Listen to me, it's my brother-in-law who is not clear-headed and came to tell me about this, which led to my misunderstanding. I would never dare to harm you."
Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, "So, your brother-in-law is the culprit who deserves death?"
"This..." Mu Bo hesitated for a moment. Should he put all the blame on his brother-in-law?
Mu Laoqi was so angry that he was going crazy. He was really crazy to want to protect his brother-in-law at this time.
This eldest son was not like this before he got married. After marriage, he seemed to have been drugged and his mind started to become unclear.
If the woman was a good person, there would be nothing wrong with that, but this woman was superficial and snobbish, and only knew how to use the name of the Mu family to profit for her family.
It's no use talking to him. He won't change his ways and is like a rolling block.
Mrs. Dong still felt aggrieved. "Princess Qingping, these are just some trivial matters. We are a family. Why are you making a fuss about it? I will let my younger brother apologize to you."
She married into the family later and had never met Mu Wanqing, nor had she experienced any hardships. She only enjoyed the glory and was flattered so much that she didn't even know her last name.
She didn't know where her confidence came from, but she felt that if anything happened, Princess Qingping would definitely protect her people.
She knew nothing about Mu Wanqing and only heard what outsiders said, which was naturally half true and half false.
Dong San was also stupid. He was still muttering at this time, "You can't blame me for this. It's all because Princess Qingping hid her identity and didn't reveal her identity earlier. This is clearly a trick."
Miss Du couldn't listen any longer. "Is this a reason to bully people? I've never heard such shameless words. Who do you think you are?"
She ordered loudly, "Come here, he has offended an official of the court, drag him away and give him forty lashes."
The police pounced on Dong San like a wolf or a tiger, pinned him to the ground and beat him with a stick.
Dong San had never suffered such pain before. He screamed in pain as soon as the board hit him, "Help, sister, save me quickly."
Dong was heartbroken, with a hint of hatred in her eyes, "Princess Qingping, we are all family, how can you be so heartless..."
She swore that she would never forgive Mu Wanqing, never, and would definitely take revenge if she had the chance.
Mu Wanqing glanced at her indifferently, the hatred in her eyes almost overflowing. This woman is so bad and stupid, and only Mu Bo, a fool of the same weight, thinks she is good.
"Who are you and your family? I don't recognize you."
Mu Bo's heart sank. As expected, Mu Wanqing's bone-chilling voice rang out.
"The reputation of our Mu family has been ruined by you. Article 7 of the Mu family rules states that you must not oppress the people or bend the law."
She made a direct decision, "Mu Bo, you two are acting recklessly and challenging the law. We in the Mu family will not tolerate you anymore. From today on, you will be expelled from the family."
Being expelled from a clan is the greatest punishment for a person. People without a clan are like rootless duckweed, and will be despised and looked down upon wherever they go.
The gap between being a member of the Mu family who enjoys all the benefits and being a member of a clan who has nothing is something that most people cannot bear.
Mu Bo's eyes went dark and his heart was broken.
Master Mu Qi felt a pang of pain in his heart, "Patriarch, this is absolutely impossible. Mu Bo was harmed by Dong, a woman with shallow knowledge. He is not a bad person by nature. I will let him divorce his wife right now."
"Mu Bo, hurry up and draw a clear line between yourself and this woman."
Mu Bo was in a state of confusion and struggle. He really liked Dong, but losing everything for her...it didn't seem worth it.
Dong didn't expect that Mu Wanqing, a woman, had such a cruel heart. Logically, shouldn't she suppress everything and protect her own people in order to preserve the good reputation of the Mu family?
She didn't understand how Mu Wanqing dared to do this. Wasn't she afraid that the people in the clan would lose their morale?
She didn't have time to think about it, and could only hold on to Mu Bo tightly. "I am Brother Bo's person in life and Brother Bo's ghost in death. Brother Bo, if you divorce me, I will not live."
Mu Bo's lips trembled and he couldn't utter any cruel words.
He could only admit his mistakes with tears in his eyes, "Chief, all the mistakes are my fault. Please give me a chance, I will repent, please."
Mu Wanqing's lips curled up in a cold arc. He was a loving man and did not mention divorce even at this time.
Then let them become a couple who share hardships.
She looked at the people who were watching, "Now, this couple is no longer part of our Mu family. Let's take revenge if there is revenge, and settle grievances if there is grievance."
She proved with her actions that she was serious about cleaning up the house.
"Master Sun, I want to sue this couple and Dong San. They have teamed up to slander me and humiliate my reputation. They even forced me to become Dong San's eighth concubine. They are so arrogant. Please give me justice."
There was a burst of gasps at the scene. Are they crazy?
Miss Du's face looked unhappy. This was her brother's fiancée, the future mistress of their Du family.
"Dong San, is this true?"
"I...I..." Dong San felt so wronged. Didn't he know her identity?
He hesitated and didn't dare to say anything, so naturally someone stood up and spoke.
"I heard it. This shameless guy wants to force Princess Qingping to be his concubine. How can he be so shameless?"
There were quite a few people at the scene just now. Now that they came to their senses, they realized that they were being used as guns to deal with the people they respected the most. They were very angry.
"It's Qiangna, but Auntie didn't marry him."
MD, I'm even angrier.
"Bah, so despicable and shameless, he is not worthy of it, why doesn't he even look in the mirror."
"Who the hell is he, sir? Chop off his head. It's a waste of food if he's alive."
"To insult the princess is to insult the people of Xiliang."
This aroused public indignation. If no one had stopped him, Dong San would have been beaten to death.
One by one, they stood up and said, "Sir, I want to report Dong San. Last month, he forced me to use ten taels of silver to buy my family's heirloom vase. If I didn't give it to him, he smashed my door and beat my wife and children. My youngest son died of excessive fright."
"I want to report Dong San..."
Mu Wanqing took the lead, and others came forward to testify against Dong San, saying that Dong San was a repeat offender and had killed many people.
No one dared to stand up before. After all, Dong San was fighting under the banner of the Mu family. Who would dare to go against the Mu family?
"I want to report Mrs. Mu. She forced me to buy and sell under the name of the Mu family, and insisted on exchanging her worthless gold-plated jewelry for a set of pure gold head ornaments."
"I want to report Mu Bo for colluding with Dong to seize my store."
Suddenly, everyone pushed the wall down.
Without the Mu family, Mu Bo would be nothing, not even a fart.
Master Mu Qi slowly fell down while holding his chest. This son whom he had carefully raised was completely ruined and could not be saved.
Mu Wanqing's eyes turned cold. You can't bear it? This is just the beginning.
