Chapter 251: Tyranny
But her status didn't allow her to be timid, so she deliberately exaggerated the cause: "Mu Xingci, this bitch actually dared to rely on her status as the Regent Princess to say that the Shunshang Kingdom was conquered by your Mu family. I heard her speak so rudely, how could I forgive her?"
When Mu Xingci heard such outrageous words, his eyes darkened slightly. Just when everyone thought he would blame his wife, he chuckled.
"I believe my wife would not say such nonsense. I think the Queen Mother must have heard it wrong."
The man's reaction made Xie Fengying even more jealous. She thought that as long as she charged his wife with a crime of disrespect, no matter how much Mu Xingci loved this woman, he would know that she had committed a serious crime and he could not protect her.
At that time, he would definitely kneel down and beg for mercy without caring about his dignity?
But she had good intentions and never expected that he would refute her to her face and believe his wife without any doubt.
The word "madam" sounds like such an ordinary name, but when it comes from the man's mouth, it is full of affection, kindness and love.
"Are you questioning me, Lord Regent?" The man's reaction made her realize that this bold woman was the one he liked, which made her extremely jealous.
"Empress Dowager, it is necessary to save some face for each other." Mu Xingci said indifferently.
Xie Fengying looked at the man in front of her with her beautiful eyes flashing. She saw that his face was gloomy, as if everything was under control. This made a hint of gloom flash in her eyes.
"Since the Regent has said so, I will give you a favor. Come, let's go back to the palace!" After saying this with a sneer, he was about to leave.
"Please slow down!" Mu Xingci stopped her.
"What else does the Regent want?" Xie Fengying looked at him in some confusion.
"Empress Dowager, you can go back, but all the people you brought with you must stay with me." There was a murderous look in Mu Xingci's eyes.
Xie Fengying was slightly surprised when she heard this: "What do you mean?"
Mu Xingci didn't answer her, but turned back to look at Yun Wansheng: "Madam, can I borrow your gun?"
Yun Wansheng listened to the man with tenderness in her eyes, and smiled: "Of course." Then she placed the gun in his palm.
"Is the bullet fully loaded?"
"It's full!"
"That's good!" Mu Xingci said with a smile in his eyes, then turned around and pointed the gun at the palace maids, guards, and two eunuchs brought by Xie Fengying.
With six gunshots, six more bodies were found in the house. The remaining few wanted to escape, but were blocked by the guards from the Regent's Palace, who prevented any of them from escaping.
"Mu Xingci! You are so brave! You even dare to kill my people!"
Xie Fengying, having recovered from her shock, shouted fiercely, but her trembling voice betrayed her current mood.
"Empress Dowager, since you are giving up your good life and are determined to commit suicide, then I have no choice but to offend you. You! Kill!"
As soon as the order was given, the last few royal servants were killed.
Xie Fengying looked at the more than 20 subordinates he had brought with him, all lying dead before his eyes, and trembled all over: "You...you want to rebel?"
"I dare not! Ni Yi, take our people to send the Queen Mother back to the palace and make sure to protect her safety." Mu Xingci seemed respectful, but in fact he ignored her completely.
"Mu Xingci, do you want to put me under house arrest?" Xie Fengying understood what he meant as soon as she heard it.
"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, please return to the palace!" Mu Xingci said calmly.
"Empress Dowager, please!" He stepped forward and signaled that it was time for her to leave.
"Mu Xingci! I have always treated you well, why do you treat me so cruelly?" Xie Fengying said angrily.
"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, why do you have to make yourself sound so righteous? You don't have to show off when you and I both understand the situation." Mu Xingci said without giving any face.
Xie Fengying glared at him angrily, then glanced at the woman behind him, her red lips suddenly raised: "Mu Xingci, it's all my fault that I was blind and blind. I was deceived by your sweet words and lost my body and mind. That's why I helped you become the regent.
Now that you've married a beautiful woman, you want to throw me away. Where is your conscience when you treat me like this?"
Mu Xingci's handsome face instantly darkened when he heard this: "Yi Yi! Take him away."
Xie Fengying achieved her goal and left without waiting for Qi Yi to come forward, leaving some hidden dangers for the couple.
At this time, Wu came in with a worried look on her face: "Wansheng, are you okay?"
"Mother-in-law, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry." Yun Wansheng said gratefully.
"I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay! I was scared to death just now."
"Mom! Don't worry, I still have something to say to Wansheng, you go back first!" Mu Xingci said with a gentle look.
"Okay! You guys chat, I'll go back soon." Mrs. Wu left the room consciously.
Then Mu Xingci asked someone to deal with all the corpses in the house. After everything was cleaned up, he asked everyone to leave.
When they were alone, Mu Xingci turned around and looked at his wife with a gloomy look in his eyes: "My wife, do you believe what the Queen Mother said just now?"
Yun Wansheng met the man's dark eyes and blinked slightly: "I don't believe it! But I want to know why she is targeting you?"
Mu Xingci listened to the woman's decision to believe in him without hesitation, which immediately relaxed his tense heartstrings. Then he raised a sly smile at the corner of his mouth: "Why? Of course you have fallen for your husband, me. Who made your man so outstanding?" As he said this with a smile, he pulled the woman into his arms.
Yun Wansheng looked at the man who had suddenly become indecent, and patted his smiling face with her small hand: "Have you ever been attracted to her? After all, the Queen Mother is also very beautiful and young."
"I'm not interested in other people's wives. No matter how beautiful she is, I would not bother to do anything that goes against human ethics."
"Tsk! Who would believe that?"
"You don't believe it?" Mu Xingci held the naughty little hand on his face, put it to his lips and bit it lightly as a punishment.
"I don't believe it!" Yun Wansheng teased him.
"You are just trying to make your husband angry! Come and sit down." Mu Xingci took her by the hand and sat her on the armchair, letting her sit on his lap.
Yun Wansheng leaned against the man's arms, her small hands fiddling with a strand of hair draped across his chest. "You killed the Queen Mother's men. Will she cause trouble for you when she returns to the palace?"
"It's good enough that she can protect herself now." Mu Xingci gently touched the woman's abdomen with one hand and smiled faintly.
"Are you so confident? Aren't you afraid that she will expose your crime of rebellion in the court?" Yun Wansheng sat up straight and looked at him, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Don't be afraid! Madam, you may not know this yet, but this Queen Mother has no power to rely on. If it weren't for her clever suggestion to the late Emperor to let me be the Regent, I'm afraid the current Emperor would have already changed hands."
Yun Wansheng was slightly startled when she heard this: "What do you mean?"
"The late emperor met her among the common people. At that time, she was just a daughter of a wealthy family. The late emperor fell in love with her at first sight. After many twists and turns, he finally made her his empress. From then on, she was the only one in his harem.
