The prefect originally wanted to help the Second Prince's wife regain face from yesterday, but he didn't expect the matter to be so difficult.
The few pills left by Mu Linghuang were not enough to offset even one percent of the bill. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell who should pay the money.
The people watching the show around them all spoke up:
"Mu Linghuang used so many things from General Mu's Mansion, so there's nothing wrong with asking her to pay it back!"
"Yes, you can't do whatever you want just because you're the Second Prince's consort, right?"
"I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless! She used so many things from General Mu's Mansion, yet she still asks for money with such a shameless face."
"I think the Second Prince's wife's parents and sister also spent a lot of money! A whole family of vampires!"
Mu Lingjiu ordered the accountants to copy a lot of bills, and hung one copy in front of the Mu Mansion so that people could see and spread it.
If anyone didn't understand something, the accountant would be there to explain it.
Soon the news spread throughout the entire Chu capital, and more and more people came to watch.
Seeing this, the prefect wanted to escape, but Mu Yufeng stopped him with a knife:
"Sir, now that the matter is clear, call Mu Cheng's family over to settle the accounts and pay the debt!"
The prefect nodded perfunctorily and said, "I'll go... I'll go right away..." He wanted to take the opportunity to escape.
"You don't have to go." Mu Yufeng casually pointed at a young constable, "You go. Tell them and the whole family to come quickly."
The young constable nodded repeatedly and crawled away.
Mu Lingjiu turned her dark eyes towards Mu Yufeng, "If they don't want to come, please trouble Third Uncle to go to Fulu Villa..."
"Okay!" Mu Yufeng agreed immediately, "I'll go beat him up and kick them out."
"No need to go through so much trouble. Just hang him at the palace gate and let him down when the money is paid back." Mu Lingjiu said seriously.
"That's fine." Mu Yufeng thought about it seriously and felt that it was feasible.
This family is really crazy!
Mu Cheng is now the father-in-law of the emperor. Isn’t it an slap in the face of the royal family to hang him in front of the palace gate?
Mu Yuzhi raised his head, took out a box and handed it to Mu Lingjiu.
"The best Jade Toad Powder can kill people without leaving any trace. If it really doesn't work, kill them."
Mu Lingjiu picked up the poison and put it into her bag.
The family seemed to be in harmony, as if they were discussing something ordinary.
But the people watching felt like they were risking their lives.
This family really doesn't treat them as outsiders! They dare to say anything!
They tried not to be conspicuous, for fear of accidentally offending these people.
At this time, the Second Prince and Mu Linghuang were sitting in a nearby restaurant, and they had a panoramic view of what had just happened.
The Second Prince originally wanted to cheer up Mu Linghuang, so he brought her to see Mu Lingjiu being beaten up, but he didn't expect things to turn out like this.
He apologized, "Ling Huang, don't worry, I will take care of this matter."
Mu Linghuang gently gathered her white crane cloak and smiled gently, "I naturally believe in the Second Prince's ability."
"Linghuang, wait for my good news here." The second prince stood up confidently and walked towards the door.
After Mu Linghuang watched the Second Prince leave, she turned around and continued to look at General Mu's Mansion in the distance, her eyes full of coldness.
Mu Lingjiu is just a waste, how can he compare with her?
Mu Lingjiu should really learn a lesson for daring to ruin her wedding.
The Second Prince quickly brought his men to the gate of the Mu family. He squinted his eyes and said to the people behind him:
"Tear down the thing hanging on the door."
Several people rushed over and tried to tear off the bill that Mu Lingjiu had posted.
Mu Yufeng held his broadsword in front of several people, intimidating them with his imposing aura.
"Why does the Second Prince touch our things?"
"Tsk..." Chu Junheng sneered, full of arrogance, "Just because I'm the Second Prince!"
He exuded an oppressive aura and waved his hand, telling his men to act quickly.
Those subordinates drew their swords and prepared to fight Mu Yufeng.
"Third uncle, let them tear it apart." Mu Lingjiu said.
"But..." Mu Yufeng was full of reluctance, but seeing Mu Lingjiu's suggestive look, he said nothing and returned to her side.
Seeing this, Chu Junheng chuckled and became even more disdainful of Mu Lingjiu.
"Don't think you can please this prince this way."
"..." Mu Lingjiu didn't understand the Second Prince's train of thought and said indifferently: "The people around have already seen this bill. If the Second Prince doesn't want the matter to be leaked, he must kill all of them." Just tearing up the bill will not work.
Chu Junheng's expression paused. Mu Lingjiu's reaction was beyond his expectations.
"What? Second Prince doesn't dare?" Mu Lingjiu raised his eyebrows and waited for the second prince's next performance.
The second prince glanced at the people around him.
The people around took a few steps back in fear.
They just came to watch a show and really didn't want to lose their lives.
The second prince thought for a moment and warned everyone present.
"If anyone dares to reveal even a little bit about what happened today, I will kill you."
The second prince handled the threat very smoothly, and it was obvious that he was a veteran.
Everyone present was silent and no one dared to respond.
Mu Lingjiu turned his head and instructed Tang Ze beside him.
"The printed bills will be distributed throughout the Chu State later."
"Okay." Tang Ze nodded obediently.
The Second Prince roared in anger, "Mu Lingjiu!"
Mu Lingjiu shook his hand and ordered someone to bring out the throne. The show had just begun.
She sat on the chair with her legs crossed, and several uncles stood behind Mu Lingjiu.
Fourth Uncle even fanned Mu Lingjiu considerately, "I don't know where these flies came from, they're buzzing so much that it hurts my head. Someone, get some incense!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the maid took out purple incense and lit it at the door of the Mu family's house.
The Second Prince naturally heard that Mu Yushang was teasing him, but he couldn't respond, otherwise he would be admitting his identity as a shit fly.
The Second Prince's momentum had weakened a bit at this moment, and he angrily accused Mu Lingjiu.
"Mu Lingjiu, didn't Linghuang just use some of your money? Why did you have to make such a scene? Lord Mu and Qin have taken care of you and raised you all these years, but not only do you have no gratitude, you're even here ruining their reputation. You're truly heartless and ruthless."
The second prince wanted to morally blackmail Mu Lingjiu, but Mu Lingjiu cleverly seized the loophole in the second prince's language.
"How can the facts I'm telling be considered discredited? Or... in the eyes of the Second Prince, it's truly evil for Mu Linghuang's family to have eaten into my mother's inheritance?"
The second prince frowned. According to common sense, this was indeed not an upright act, so he subconsciously said the word "ruining reputation".
But it is only natural for Mu Linghuang, a girl born in heaven, to use some rare treasures.
"It is your blessing that General Mu's Mansion can raise a spirit phoenix."
Mu Yushang quickly protected Mu Lingjiu and said, "This blessing is for you. We don't want it."
The Second Prince felt a lump of anger stuck in his throat. He felt that Mu Yushang must not have realized how rare a gifted girl like Mu Linghuang was!
At this time, Mu Cheng's family also arrived in a carriage.
As soon as I arrived, I saw the second prince confronting Mu Lingjiu.
Mu Cheng got off the carriage immediately. Although he was still limping, he was obviously much more flexible than yesterday.
Mu Cheng was kicked out of the Mu Mansion yesterday and was holding his breath. Today, with the support of the Second Prince, he jumped up in an instant and started cursing at Mu Lingjiu, pointing at his nose.
"Bitch, you are nothing but a waste now, yet you dare to shout in front of the Second Prince."
