Princess Consort of the City squatted down in front of Wei Xu, watching him vomit blood. She was extremely anxious and hurriedly ordered, "Quickly go and call the imperial physician."
Mu Chenshuang said coldly, "Princess Consort of the City, there's no need to call the imperial physician. Prince Wei is not dead yet."
These words were shocking; Mu Chenshuang was far too arrogant.
Mu Yazhi's eyes held a sinister smile; she was just waiting to see the show.
Princess Consort looked up, her almond-shaped eyes filled with anger, but her good upbringing made her appear cultured even when she was angry.
She stood up.
The maid helped Wei Xu to the side to rest.
Princess Consort of the City stepped forward. "I wonder what Princess Weiyang's intention is? Is it because my City Prince's Mansion has been unaccommodating and has offended Princess Weiyang?"
Before Mu Chenshuang could speak, Xue Jiajia said, "Princess Consort of the City, it was your brother who struck first. Does Princess Weiyang have any reason not to fight back and let Prince Wei beat her?"
Mu Chenshuang's kick just now was so cool, her arrogant aura is simply admirable.
Princess Consort of the City was taken aback.
"If Princess Weiyang hadn't insulted the Wei Prince's Mansion, would the Wei Prince have taken action? Princess Weiyang is truly arrogant. Even if the Wei Prince's Mansion is not what it used to be, its achievements are still there, and it is still the glorious Wei Prince's Mansion. How dare you insult it so easily?"
These words made the Princess Consort's face darken, and her fingers clenched tighter.
Even if others flatter her, she knows in her heart that the Prince of Wei's mansion has fallen, but it is not up to others to ridicule her at will!
“The Marquis of Jingbian’s mansion is indeed very powerful now. Marquis Mu holds a large army, and Princess Weiyang is a renowned female general. My Prince Wei’s mansion is indeed inferior to them. However, the heroic spirits of my Prince Wei’s mansion are always with the late emperor. With the late emperor’s protection, even the current emperor still respects my Prince Wei’s mansion. If Princess Weiyang does not give the Prince Wei’s mansion an apology, I will have no choice but to petition the emperor to do justice for my Prince Wei’s mansion.”
Princess Consort of the City was, after all, a woman raised in the secluded courtyard. Her gentle and quiet appearance, when she got angry, carried a refined and scholarly air about her.
If it's about suppressing others, it can easily intimidate them.
Xue Jiajia was startled by the words of the Princess Consort of the City. Looking at Mu Chenshuang, she remained calm and composed, her gaze cold and clear. Her imposing aura, though not angry, was like that of a queen, which made the Princess Consort of the City's aura much weaker.
Seeing this scene, Mu Yazhi was extremely pleased. Although the Wei Prince's Mansion had fallen, it was still a noble family with its prestige. She had offended the Wei Prince's Mansion, and when the Wei Prince impeached her in front of His Majesty, she wanted to see how long Mu Chenshuang could be arrogant. It would be best if the Princess Consort of the City took her to see His Majesty right now.
"He only enjoys the glory brought by his ancestors, without thinking about how to continue the family's prosperity. He only indulges in pleasure and does not think about danger in times of peace. In my eyes, Prince Wei is a good-for-nothing who only revolves around women, is simple-minded, and listens to slander."
Mu Chenshuang's voice carried an invisible domineering force, and her sharp eyes exuded an aura of supreme authority.
It was so heavy it was hard to breathe.
Wei Xu was so scolded that he couldn't utter a single word, and could only glare at Mu Chenshuang with indignant eyes.
“If he continues to be useless, the Wei Prince’s Mansion will fall into his hands sooner or later. Even if I were to go to see His Majesty now, I would still repeat these words to His Majesty without missing a single one.”
Princess Cheng clenched her fingers, lowered her eyes, and her eyes were filled with sorrow and indignation. She was sorrowful because what she said was true, that Wei Xu was indeed useless, and she was angry because Mu Chenshuang had humiliated her in public without any regard for the consequences.
Even so, she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
"Sister, you've gone too far..." Mu Yazhi said, putting on a righteous and indignant expression, and began to defend the wronged.
"Shut up!"
Mu Yazhi wanted to speak, but Mu Chenshuang's sharp shout made her swallow her words.
Mu Chenshuang lowered her eyes and looked at the Princess Consort of the City, saying calmly, "Princess Consort of the City, reality is always bloody. Just because you don't want to face it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I didn't mean to say these cruel words to your face today. The affection between Prince Wei and my father is still there, so when I see that the Prince of Wei only revolves around a woman who stirs up trouble, I just said a few more words."
"The Princess Consort is also a wise woman. I hope you can distinguish between human speech and ghost speech."
The Princess Consort listened, closed her eyes, and her expression turned helpless.
Originally, they were expecting the Princess Consort of the City to teach Mu Chenshuang a lesson, and preferably bring her into the palace for His Majesty to decide. However, the sudden turn of events caught Mu Yazhi and the others off guard, as Mu Chenshuang actually managed to quell the Princess Consort of the City's anger.
Mu Yazhi felt a pang of panic and her body stiffened. She was afraid that the Princess Consort of the City would believe Mu Chenshuang's lies.
“Sister, even if you are a princess and look down on my status as a concubine’s daughter, my mother has worked hard to manage the Marquis’s mansion all these years, but in the end, all she gets in return is your humiliation and slander. You hate me, and no matter what I do, you find it displeasing. You can’t stand me being with Prince Wei. You bully me at home, and I haven’t said a word, but how can you slander me in public?”
Mu Yazhi burst into tears, heartbroken and inconsolable, her tears falling like broken pearls, utterly aggrieved.
