Chapter 141: Piercing Her Heart
"You'll suffer the consequences of your own actions. You should be glad that you didn't know what your grandmother had done before, otherwise your fate would have been even worse." Jiang Yunxi said with a cold face.
Mu Yanran's expression changed, and she looked at Jiang Yunxi angrily. If she hadn't appeared, the Mu family would still be as prosperous as before.
Although she is a merchant's daughter, the Mu family's wealth and status still make her popular among some people.
"Take me to see the old master." Jiang Yunxi said to the butler.
"This..." The housekeeper didn't dare to make a decision, after all, Mu Yanran, the eldest daughter, was here.
Jiang Yunxi sneered and walked straight inside.
Mu Yanran shouted sternly, "Stop her."
"Let's see who dares to stop me!" Zhan Beiyuan's handsome face was stern, his dark eyes were filled with arrogance that looked down on the world, and a powerful pressure emanated from his body.
The butler and other servants didn't dare to move.
Jiang Yunxi glanced at Mu Yanran and said, "Stupid."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the housekeeper.
The housekeeper's heart sank when he saw her look, "Prince Han, Miss Jiang, please come this way."
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan followed.
Mu Yanran took a deep breath, her nails digging deep into her flesh, hatred surging in her heart. This is the Mu family, the Mu family, what right does she have to be so arrogant here?
The housekeeper took Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan to Mr. Mu's yard.
Old Master Mu was lying on the bed, half paralyzed, his face covered in tears. He had just learned that his eldest son had passed away, even though he was still fine when he came to see him last night.
He is sending off a young person at an old age.
"King Han, please forgive me for not being able to get out of bed to pay my respects..." Old Master Mu said, suppressing his sadness, but he felt extremely distressed in his heart. He was clearly fine until the day before yesterday.
He was still looking forward to the day when the Mu family would become the imperial merchant.
As a result, starting from yesterday, the Mu family encountered accidents one after another.
What Zhen Mingyue did shocked him even more.
"I came to the Mu family today for something." Zhan Beiyuan said indifferently.
"Is it about what Zhen did? I don't know that she was the one who killed the old lady of the Zhen family. As for borrowing the fortune of the Lan family, I don't know either."
Mr. Mu said frankly.
"You really don't know?" Jiang Yunxi asked.
"Back then she only said that she found a master, and that the feng shui of the Mu family was all instructed by that master. It was also her suggestion to do business. I didn't expect that it would really succeed." Grandpa Mu said lightly.
"Have you seen that master?" Jiang Yunxi didn't expect Zhen Mingyue didn't tell the people from the Mu family.
Old Master Mu shook his head. "When our business started to pick up, I was very grateful and wanted to invite the Master to our home. But she said the Master didn't like to interact with people, so I asked her to give more money to express her gratitude."
He really had never seen that mysterious master.
"Do you know about the worship of the Dark Evil God?"
"The antique shop business was started by Zhen Mingyue. He said it was the advice given by a master, so I bought the mansion from someone else. I didn't know about the enshrinement." said Mr. Mu.
He did not lie. Zhen Mingyue did not let anyone in the Mu family know about those things.
"It seems that she has some conscience and didn't let you know. Even so, you have enjoyed the benefits brought by the borrowed luck formation, so you must bear the consequences." Jiang Yunxi said.
Zhen Mingyue is quite nice to the people of the Mu family.
But even so, they cannot escape the consequences of the twenty years of benefits they have gained.
"I fell like this, my great-grandson fell into the water and burned his brain, and my eldest son Mu Xian just collapsed and died inexplicably. Is there really no way the Mu family can save him?"
When Mr. Mu talked about his sad moments, he couldn't control his tears. The sudden change made him feel like he had fallen from heaven to hell, and he couldn't accept it at all.
"You must have used a lot of dirty tricks in doing business over the years, otherwise you wouldn't have suffered retribution so quickly for borrowing the formation without knowing it." Jiang Yunxi had no sympathy at all.
They deserve it.
Old Master Mu was silent. He had to admit that people are greedy after all. From having nothing to having something, they will want more. He did use some tricks in doing business and made a lot of dirty money.
After that, the Mu family became better and better every year, and he became more and more unscrupulous.
Now he regrets it.
But he also knew that regret was useless.
"If you divorce Zhen, you will suffer less. Believe it or not, you have to believe it. You don't want people from the Mu family to die one after another, do you?" Jiang Yunxi did not give him a chance to choose.
Mr. Mu looked at her and finally nodded.
He has no choice.
…
The government prison.
"What did you say? He divorced me? How could he divorce me!" Zhen Mingyue was struck by lightning when she saw the divorce letter in Jiang Yunxi's hand.
She crawled to the door of the cell, opened her eyes wide and looked at the words on the divorce letter, and finally her sight fell on Mu Hongwen's name, it was his handwriting.
"No, it's impossible, he won't divorce me..." Zhen Mingyue kept shaking her head, with an expression of unwillingness to believe on her face, but her heart was broken.
They have been married for decades, and she helped the Mu family build itself from nothing to great success.
It can be said that the current achievements of the Mu family are all due to her.
She didn't even tell them about what she had done. She was the one doing it all so as not to implicate them. If anything really happened, she would take the responsibility.
She cared so much about the Mu family, but now that the Mu family is in trouble, Mu Hongwen actually divorced her!
How could he do this to her!
"By the way, your eldest son Mu Xian died this morning." Jiang Yunxi said something that hurt her heart again. She came to Zhen Mingyue just to hurt her heart.
If she doesn't hit her physically, then torture her mentally.
"What did you say..." Zhen Mingyue's eyes widened. This made her feel more miserable than being divorced. Mu Xian had been managing the business almost all these years.
She is proud of him.
Even if the Mu family is suffering a backlash now, as long as Mu Xian's business skills are still there, the Mu family will surely make a comeback. Now Jiang Yunxi tells her that he is dead.
This didn't completely destroy her hopes.
"He died this morning. You were the one who killed him." Jiang Yunxi reminded her with a smile.
"No, you lied to me, he won't die, he's not dead..." Zhen Mingyue grabbed the cell bars with both hands and yelled heartbreakingly, with a look of agony on her face.
Tears finally fell at this moment.
Although she didn't want to cry in front of Jiang Yunxi, he was her eldest son whom she was proud of. She originally wanted him to enter the officialdom, but Zhen Huanning was unwilling to help her.
She had to choose another path.
It’s Zhen Huanning.
It was she who killed her eldest son.
"Don't collapse yet. People will continue to die in the Mu family. Oh, and you will never see anyone from the Mu family again. But don't worry, someone will come to tell you news about the Mu family every day until the day you die." Jiang Yunxi said and left.
The matter in Jiangzhou has been resolved, and it is time for them to return to the capital.
"Jiang Yunxi, come back, you..." Zhen Mingyue yelled angrily, but soon she was speechless.
Zhan Beiyuan sealed her mouth with force.
The two of them left the prison together.
Jiang Yunxi was in a good mood, "We have to find a way to find out who is behind Zhen Mingyue."
Zhan Beiyuan said in a deep voice: "You should first use the Soul Gathering Pearl to check where your remaining soul and spirit are. This is more important."
