Grab a Handsome Guy as Strategist - C48

“I understand what the Prime Minister means, but this matter concerns a lady’s innocence and reputation. How can it end like this?”

Mu Yizi didn’t want to play a silly game with the prime minister and Ji Wei, so she simply expressed her stance.

She would absolutely not back down on this matter.

Whether it was for himself, or for Liang Jingfeng, or for Liang Jingqing.

Even if she was at odds with Liang Jingfeng, she could not allow this to happen in front of her eyes.

If all the officials in the imperial government relied on their power and influence to bully others, then was there still a law within this country?

“General Mu, I hope you know what it means to be a wise man when the time comes!” The Prime Minister’s face was somewhat sullen, his tone becoming unfriendly as well.

Mu Yizi knew that if she were to offend the Prime Minister just like that, there would be no good outcome for her in the future.

Even if there was Lu Xiang and His Majesty’s protection in the court, the Prime Minister could not help picking a fight with them.

“Prime Minister, those who know their place may not necessarily be elites, but they may also be the fence-sitters. The wind blows that way, and the little man falls that way! ” As she spoke, Mu Youzi glanced at Ji Wei, who had been silent this entire time.

It wasn’t that she didn’t know who Ji Wei was. Just by casually asking around the streets, she was able to tell that he had previously been nothing more than an aide under her father’s command.

If it wasn’t for his father wanting him to be recommended by the emperor, how could he have achieved his current position?

Ever since Mu Feng had left the capital with Mu Youzi, he had gone under the tutelage of the Prime Minister.

It was probably because he didn’t know that he was Mu Feng’s daughter. Otherwise, how would he feel?

Now that his benefactor’s daughter had returned, not only did he not care for her anymore, he even went against her. If word of this got out, he, Ji Wei, who was an ungrateful and vile character, would probably be carried away for the rest of his life.

The Prime Minister glanced at Ji Wei by his side. It wasn’t that he didn’t understand Mu Yizi’s meaning.

But after all these years, Ji Wei had always been loyal to him. He believed that Ji Wei deeply knew who would be the one to allow him to firmly sit in his position.

“General Mu doesn’t want to give in?” The Prime Minister said with a strange tone, looking at Mu Yizi with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.

But why would Mu Yiran be afraid? He was just a mere Prime Minister, so what if he had some solid foundation in the palace over the years? To be able to personally send his only son into that dangerous harem, it was inevitable that he wouldn’t be able to sell himself out for other benefits in the future.

Such a person definitely could not be followed!

“Prime Minister, I still have matters to attend to, if Prime Minister has nothing else, please return!” Mu Yizi no longer had the interest to continue arguing with him, and even more so did not have the patience to accompany him in making all those twists and turns.

He simply ordered and directly sent off the guests to express his intention.

The Prime Minister had never been humiliated by a girl before, and this time, he actually ended up getting a piece of cake for him.

He was the dignified prime minister of the imperial court, yet he personally came to win her over and yet she rejected him. He really doesn’t know how to appreciate favors! Wasn’t this obviously going against him?

He angrily stood up, flicked his sleeves, and the Prime Minister angrily left with Ji Wei.

Looking at their furious backs, Mu Yurou’s heart felt refreshed.

So what if it was the Prime Minister? A prime minister who had no people or country in his heart was no different from the corrupt official.

If it wasn’t to balance the kingdom, why would His Majesty raise the son of a tiger at his side?

After some thought, he decided that he had to prepare for it. She took out the golden token from her bosom and looked at it fixedly. Not long after, she stood up and entered the palace.

“You’re here?”

However, he was not too surprised when he saw Mu Youzi walk over. He continued to review the memorial in front of him without raising his head.

Mu Yizi bowed and did not say another word.

Before he finished speaking, he took a paper from the table and threw it in front of Mu Yizi, then stopped moving.

Mu Yizi took a step forward and picked it up. When she opened it, she saw that it was the same book that Ji Wei had pasted on her this morning.

“Tell me, what happened?” She did not even bat an eyelid as she knew that Mu Youzi must have her own reasons for doing so. She wanted to see what kind of explanation Mu Yizi would give her.

Mu Yizi closed the memorial, put her hands above her head, and returned it to the table. She took a step back and stood up straight, neither servile nor overbearing, and said: “The words on the paper are true.”

Finally, he raised his head and looked at her. Then, he shifted his gaze back to the paper in front of him and asked, “Is there nothing else?”

“There’s nothing else.” Mu Yizi did not explain any further. She had indeed beaten Mo Xuan to an inhumane state. This was the truth, and there was nothing to refute.

“Why?” He wasn’t in a rush and seemed to understand Mu Yizi’s personality. It was as if he was giving her a chance.

Mu Yizi pursed her lips, kneeled on the ground, and said with her head lowered, “Your subject hopes that Your Majesty will uphold justice for this subject’s adopted sister!”

“Sister-in-law? “Tell me in detail.” He closed the paper and listened to Mu Yizi’s narration.

After hearing it, Lin Mu Yu slapped the table and said angrily: “How could this happen? Ji Wei had the guts to allow his nephew to do such a malicious thing in the imperial city under the feet of the Son of Heaven! ”

Mu Yizi cupped her hands and bowed her head, saying, “Your Majesty, this subject did indeed hit General Ji’s nephew, Mo Xuan, that day. However, because of the urgent situation, ever since Lord Liang had been deposed, the Liang Household had declined. In order to subsidize her family, Liang Jingfeng had no choice but to go to the brothel to become a geisha. But as we all know, Jin Li Country is the brand of geisha are not for sale. “Mo Xuan dared to snatch her away. He’s truly unforgivable!”

He took a deep breath and calmed down. A calm voice entered Mu Yizi’s ears, “You sure are a bit too harsh.”

Mu Yizi lowered her head even more as she said guiltily, “This subject was just in a rush. Back then, Mo Xuan held onto Miss Liang tightly. How could Miss Liang’s delicate body withstand his tugging? Therefore, this subject … “In a fit of anger, he attacked.”

Lin Mu sighed and waved his hand: “Stand up!”

Only then did Mu Yizi dare to stand up, but she still did not dare to look at him.

“Why would you not dare to look at me?” She frowned slightly. This was the first time she saw this little girl being so timid.

Mu Youzi said somewhat embarrassedly, “Your subject is afraid that Your Majesty will scold me.”

This sentence actually amused Luo Yu, “You are so bold, yet you are afraid that I will reprimand you? Just a moment ago, you were still so confident! ”

Scratching her head shyly, Mu Yiran dared to raise her head to look at Lin Mu before quickly lowering it again.

“Alright, I understand now. But how do you think we should deal with this? ” Before he finished speaking, he pursed his lips. If this matter were to be used as evidence against Ji Wei, then there was no reason why Ji Wei should not be punished.

However, a mere Ji Wei wasn’t enough to shake the Prime Minister’s forces.
