Old Master Mu’s face was so dark that it was a little scary. Even the people who were standing around him could feel the cold, dark aura.
Feng Ruqing did not say a single word from the beginning to the end.
“You said that that person... is called Liu Yuchen?”
After a while, the old master’s old, deep voice spoke.
Tan Shuangshuang felt a jolt of happiness in her heart as she nodded and said, “That’s right. It is Liu Yuchen from Liu Yun Kingdom.”
“Alright,” Old Master Mu said coldly. “Old Housekeeper, take a thousand taels of silver and give it to Liu Yuchen of the Liu family.”
Tan Shuangshuang was a little stunned as she looked at the old master in confusion.
The old housekeeper was also at a loss. “Master, this...”
“Go and thank him. Xiao Qing is such a good maiden. We have to thank him for divorcing her. Otherwise, where would our family’s grandchild have an opportunity? I guess one thousand taels might not be enough. Go and prepare two thousand taels. We need to thank them!”
Tan Shuangshuang’s expression changed.
Why were the reality and her predictions... a little different?
‘Should Old Master Mu kick Feng Ruqing out? A woman who has been married before, why does the Mu family not disdain her?’
As if not seeing Tan Shuangshuang’s expression, Old Master Mu wore a serious expression as he continued, “Housekeeper, go and check if Tan Shuangshuang’s child is related to the Liu family. Since Xiao Qing has already said so, then it should not be wrong. You also said that you frequented the Liu family. I do not care if you were there for Lady Liu or Liu Yuchen. You are definitely related to the Liu family in some way. If I find out that somebody tries to wrong my Mu family... Hehe...”
Tan Shuangshuang’s legs went soft and she almost crumbled to the ground.
She and Chancellor Liu... no, the previous chancellor’s matters were widely known in Liu Yun Kingdom.
If Old Master Mu went to investigate, then everything would be exposed.
Even if the child was really Mu Ling’s, the old man might not believe it either.
In that moment, Tan Shuangshuang finally understood what it meant to pick up a brick and drop it onto her own foot. Cold sweat was dripping down her back, drenching her spine.
“Old Master, I...”
She wanted to defend herself, but a cold, elegant voice rang from inside the manor, like a cold wind that blew past, so cold that she shuddered.
“Qing’er has always been a filial child. It is just that some people were disrespectful just because they were older. Considering that they were seniors, they tried to suppress her and had thus disrespected her.” Suyi slowly walked out of the door. Her expression was indifferent. “Too bad, she did not see what identity she had. My family’s Qing’er is a princess. Such a foolish old lady had actually wanted her to show filial piety? How ridiculous. If it were me, I would definitely have given her a good beating! It could be seen that my family’s Qing’er was still merciful to that old lady.”
Next to Suyi were Feng Tianyu and his wife.
Originally, Tan Shuangshuang was already feeling cold. Her heart was shaking when she saw Feng Tianyu and his wife walking out together. She was so frightened that she had almost lost consciousness.
Why did no one tell her that His Majesty and the empress would be at such a place...
“Your Ma... Majesty... Empress...”
Tan Shuangshuang was quivering.
Feng Tianyu clasped his hands his back. His gaze was fierce and sharp like a knife. “Liu Yuchen disdained the fact that my daughter was a two hundred fifty pound beauty, leaving her to keep watch over an empty room for so many days. It was only by luck that the state preceptor Nan Xian is wise and has been loving her since she still weighed two hundred and fifty pounds. What are you? How dare you slander my daughter here?”
Feng Ruqing who was originally supposed to be happy suddenly felt ripples in her heart.
‘Can you guys not mention the words ‘two hundred and fifty’?’
Was her reputation not important?
