Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C46
Seeing Mo Xuan remain silent, Mu Yizi sneered. Holding the sword in her hand, she looked at Mo Xuan and said, “Since Young Master Mo doesn’t want to speak, I’ll speak up for you.”
“I wonder if you still remember Liang Jing Feng, the Liang Family’s young miss?” Mu Yizi lifted her sword and walked step by step towards Mo Xuan.
Mo Xuan stared at the treasured sword that was getting closer and closer to him. He couldn’t retreat a single step. He could only watch in horror as Mu Yizi approached him, trembling all over.
Ji Wei immediately stood up and pointed at Mu Yurou in anger. “General Mu, my nephew is already in such a state. Why are you still coming to intimidate him?”
Mu Yizi stopped and turned to Ji Wei, “Threatening? General Ji’s nephew forcefully took over the daughter of a commoner, sullying the innocence of a young lady. “Now that the young lady is pregnant, I would like to ask if General Ji has just said that the Son of Heaven committed the crime together with the commoners and that the officials will allow their relatives to bully men and women to be punished for their crimes.”
Being choked by Mu Yizi’s words, Ji Wei shut his mouth and could only angrily stare at her.
“If I were to report this to His Majesty, would His Majesty first blame me for bullying your nephew, or would it be a crime of conniving in the murder of a relative of General Ji’s?”
Ji Wei was so shocked that he sat back down, a few drops of cold sweat falling from his forehead.
If this matter were to be found out by His Majesty, His Majesty, who loved the people like he was his son, would surely strip him of his official clothes.
Earlier, the wargod General Mu Feng, who had been out on the battlefield in the Jin Li Kingdom, was extremely famous. He was just a deputy general following beside him.
If it wasn’t for Mu Feng, he wouldn’t have been able to achieve the rank of fourth rank general. However, His Majesty was only thinking of Mu Feng’s achievements. It was fortunate that Mu Feng had mysteriously disappeared and that he had sided with the Prime Minister’s group. Otherwise, he would have been fired long ago.
Now that his nephew had committed such a crime, Mo Xuan would surely be blamed for it as his uncle.
“She …” She was a geisha with a board on the top floor of a mirror. She was there to entertain men. “What right do you have to say that I am forcibly taking this woman?” Mo Xuan stammered his retort, but his tone was full of guilt.
Mu Yizi glanced at him, placed the sword on his neck, and said coldly, “You said it already. She is just a registered geisha. For there to be a person who is willing to sacrifice themselves, that requires my consent. Let me ask you this, does Liang Jingfeng have the free will to give himself to you? ”
A few words caused Mo Xuan to be at a loss of how to refute. This matter was indeed a result of him having drunk too much.
Just by drinking a bit of wine, he found her extremely charming. Using his strength as a man, he had forcefully taken her. But who would have thought that she would become pregnant just like that?
“General Ji, are you still going to protect your nephew?” Mu Yizi did not move the treasured sword in her hand, but looked at Ji Wei, who was silent at the side.
At this point, she didn’t believe that Ji Wei would give up his position as a fourth rank official for her nephew.
Ji Wei came back to his senses with a fawning smile on his face.
“General Mu, we … If you have something to say, just say it. ”
Ji Wei did not dare to speak another word against Mu Yizi. Mo Xuan’s life was in the hands of Mu Yizi, and most importantly, he could not blow up this matter. Otherwise, his position would not be kept.
Mu Yizi didn’t move, maintaining the position where she was holding the sword against Mo Xuan’s neck. Right now, General Ji needs to give me a clear word, or else … swords and sabers will have no eyes. I can’t guarantee that this good nephew of yours will still be alive. ”
“General Mu, please wait a moment. I’ll go to the imperial study and take your paper back soon.” I have my own way of explaining to His Majesty. I hope that General Mu can be magnanimous and spare this nephew’s life. ” Ji Wei was on the verge of kneeling down to Mu Yizi, but he didn’t know how to satisfy her.
“Heh. General Ji, you must be joking.” The book you played me with belongs to nothing. That day, if not for your good nephew coming to the Liang Household to pester Miss Liang, he wouldn’t have ended up like this. So what if you play me? Tomorrow, I will go to the royal study and explain the whole situation to His Majesty. I believe that your majesty will make a just decision out of the kindness of your heart! ”
This time, Ji Wei was no longer as arrogant as before. He had been doing his job watertight. Never would he have thought that the matter would turn out to be bad for his nephew.
When he had seen his nephew beaten to such a state, he had been so angry that he had to write a note. It played very early in the morning, so he didn’t even ask what was going on.
[What should I do? I would have lost my official position because of this!]
Seeing that Ji Wei was almost scared, Mu Yizi decided to stop immediately. If Ji Wei was forced to become angry from embarrassment, it would not be worth it if he risked his life to fight her.
“General Ji is also someone who understands things. I’ll give him a day.” I hope General Ji can give me a satisfactory answer the day after tomorrow. I won’t bother you today. ” With that, Mu Yizi threw the treasured sword in her hand to the ground and left.
After Mu Yizi left, Ji Wei didn’t say anything as he walked up to Mo Xuan and gave him a slap. Ye Zichen didn’t care whether he was injured or not, and even kicked him in the stomach.
“You stinking brat, didn’t I tell you to keep a low profile? Normally, when I go shopping in the brothels, I would just turn a blind eye.
Mo Xuan clutched his stomach, feeling wronged. His face was burning with pain. How could he have known that Liang Jingfeng was actually related to Mu Yu Zi? That little b * tch didn’t know what was good for him and still dared to find someone to cause trouble for him. After this matter was over, he definitely wouldn’t let her off! He had to please his uncle right now. The only thing he could rely on was his uncle. Otherwise, he might not even be able to keep his life.
“Uncle, I was wrong!” It’s all my fault, drinking is a mistake! However … What should we do now? ”
Ji Wei glared at him, touched his chin, and said while pondering, “This Mu Youzi is of the same rank as me, it’s useless for me to say anything. Adding on your matter, I don’t have the capital to negotiate with her. “Looks like I can only make a trip to the Prime Minister’s Estate.”
After speaking, Ji Wei immediately ordered people to prepare horses. Before leaving, he didn’t forget to give Mo Xuan another kick. Even so, he still felt resentful.
Mu Yizi, who had returned to the Mu Residence, whistled and entered the house. Shen Bai was in the yard watering the flowers, and the corner of his mouth lifted when he heard the whistle.
It seemed as though the trip to the Ji clan had been quite fruitful. Even the little girl was in a good mood, so the negotiation process must have gone smoothly.
Putting down the ladle in his hand, Shen Bai stroked his sleeves and walked towards Mu Yizi.
“Done?”
