Chapter 146 Old General Mu Angrily Punishes His Slag Son [1]

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

But after taking Zi You’s pulse, the imperial doctor shook his head in embarrassment. “This is my first time seeing a pulse likes Xiaojie’s since this official started practicing medicine. It’s very messy, as if there are two people’s pulses beating. My skills are inferior. I can’t diagnose why Xiaojie is unconscious and can’t wake up. This official will try acupuncture. If she still doesn’t wake up, then please seek a more superior doctor, Second Furen.”

He performed acupuncture, but there was no response from Zi You. The imperial doctor broke out in a cold sweat on a cold day. He shook his head helplessly, “Second Furen, apologies. This official……”

“What is wrong with You’er (my granddaughter)?” The imperial doctor did not finish speaking, but Old General Mu and Mu YingYi had rushed inside.

Nee Liu saw her father-in-law and husband return and her tense nerves relaxed. Her tears were like a flood that broke from its banks and poured out. “Father, husband, what should we do? You’er won’t wake up……”

Old General Mu’s tiger body staggered. Fortunately, My YingYi helped him on the side, so that he did not fall over. The two rushed over to the imperial doctor and asked angrily, “What is wrong with You’er?”

Father and son had been through a baptism of blood and fire on the battlefield. Could that momentum and pressure be something that Imperial Doctor Mo, who was on duty that day at the Imperial Hospital, bear? His face turned white and cold sweat dripped down like rain. He stammered a reply. “Xiaojie’s pulse is too…… too strange. This official…… This official has never seen it before. Old General, please…… Please invite the main imperial doctor over! Or….. Or you can ask First Laoye what…… what happened.”

Old General Mu immediately said to Mu YingYi, “Go personally invite the main imperial doctor over to treat You’er.”

Then he said to Nee Liu, “Don’t cry. What happened? Tell me first.”

In the end, he was someone used to the battlefield. Old General Mu was distressed about his granddaughter and anxious, but knew that he could not panic and immediately calmed down.

Nee Liu did not dare to delay. She hurriedly wiped her tears away and fought back her grief and indignation. She then told him the ins and outs of what had happened.

After Old General Mu finished listening, he felt that his whole body turn extremely cold, like he was immersed in ice water:. He didn’t need to ask. His son must have certainly taken advantage of him not being in the house and did something to his granddaughter. Otherwise, why would You’er be unconscious and wouldn’t wake up? Even the imperial doctor was helpless.

Old General Mu was furious. His face turned livid. A sharp pressure appeared in his voice. “That animal is awake, right? He and that wife of his haven’t come to visit You’er, right?”

Nee Liu thought of how as soon as Mu YingRui woke up, he was angrily cursing “that beast” and “that rebellious daughter.” Nee Liu sighed.

Nee Liu thought of Wang Yiping crying out when Mu YingRui was carried into her room. “Heavens! What happened? Laoye, Bieqie had advised you not to discipline You’er, but you wouldn’t listen. Now, it’s great. You’ve even paid with your life. Her heart is resentful. Even if you treat her wholeheartedly, she won’t understand.”

Nee Liu nodded helplessly. She said, “Brother-in-law and sister-in-law seem to have a misunderstanding that You’er did something unforgivable to them. You’er’s maidservant Liu Yanhong seems to be involved. Does father want to call her over and ask her what happened? She was at the scene earlier.”

Old General My waved his hand majestically. “Bring her here!”

Liu Yanhong was brought over shortly. Old General Mu took a look. She was actually Wang Yiping’s actress yiniang’s maidservant. He felt a sense of disgust.

Thus, his tone of voice was colder and more severe. “Why did First Laoye call you and Xiaojie into his study? You better honestly explain to this general! Hurry and speak!”

Old General Mu slammed his hand on a table. The table instantly broke into pieces.

Liu Yanhong was scared into trembling. Her brain quickly thought. Should she say it or not? There were only her, Laoye, and Xiaojie in the study, after all. If Xiaojie could not wake up, then she could quietly follow Laoye to take up his post. But if Xiaojie woke up, then could she live if she lied to Old General Mu now?

Liu Yanhong was extremely conflicted. She frowned as she thought hard and did not immediately answer Old General Mu.

Old General Mu was always honest and aboveboard and spent his life on formations and commanding an army. He could only fight in wars and didn’t know how to scheme. But that didn’t mean that he was a fool who didn’t know how to read people.

Once he saw Liu Yanhong’s appearance, he knew what she was thinking. She actually dared to play games with him. Old General Mu coldly laughed. “Don’t play games with this general. If you dare to say one false thing, this general will sever all the tendons in your hands and feet. Then throw you into a snake pit so you can experience tens of thousands of snakes biting you. Hurry and say it.”

Liu Yanhong looked up in fright. She coincidentally looked into Old General Mu’s wide and fiery tiger eyes. That gaze was sharp like a sword and penetrated her body. It scared her into breaking out into a cold sweat and soaked through her inner clothing with a “whoosh.”

Her defenses finally collapsed. She described in detail how Mu YingRui instigated her to frame Zi You and what had happened in the study.

However, she wasn’t stupid. She didn’t say how Zi You repaired her hymen and had her seduce Mu YingRui.

She knew that after she gave up Mu YingRui’s scheme, her dream of becoming Seventh Yiniang would collapse. If she offended Zi You too, she really would only have a road to death left.

Even now, she wasn’t certain that Xiaojie would let her off and pursue her temporary defection. Her only hope was for Xiaojie to spare her life because she told Old General Mu’s Mu YingRui’s conspiracy.

After all, she needed to live to enjoy wealth and prosperity. Her life wasn’t even guaranteed right now, so how could she consider anything else?

Liu Yanhong’s words really angered Old General Mu into losing his rationality. He had thought before that his son possibly wanted to take advantage that he wasn’t home to deal with his granddaughter. But it wasn’t confirmed, after all.

Besides, after Mu YingRui had returned, You’er didn’t do anything unforgiveable to him. Old General Mu couldn’t think of why his son wanted to target her.

But the truth was really so terrible and ugly. So his son was so cold-blooded that he couldn’t tolerate his own daughter. He wholeheartedly wanted to kill her.

Was such an animal his son? No! No, he wasn’t.

Old General Mu was disheartened and filled with grief and indignation. He pulled out his Longyin Sword and kicked away the kneeling Liu Yanhong. He went towards Yiping Ju with a murderous aura. He only had one thought. He was going to kill his unfilial son. Then he would go to the underworld and plead for forgiveness from his wife.

Old General Mu was someone who practiced martial arts. His one kick broke two of Liu Yanhong’s ribs. She cried out in pain, collapsed onto the ground, and fainted.

Mu YingYi saw his father pull his sword out and was now rushing angrily to his brother and sister-in-law’s courtyard. He was scared and hurriedly went over to stop him. “Father, you can’t. Even if brother is a b*stard, you can’t kill him.”

Old General Mu was burning with anger. He was already angered by his son until he lost his rationality. What time of the year was this? This is the Spring Festival for family reunions! Even if you don’t love your daughter, you can’t pick this time to do anything. You want the whole house to not have a good New Year, like you? Since you want everyone to have a bad time, then I will end you unfilial son.

A wrathful Old General Mu was someone that even the Emperor could not necessarily stop, much less Mu YingYi. When Old General Mu was thirty years old, his most valued lieutenant died. He was so angry that he picked up his Longyin Sword and killed thirty-six enemies in one breath.

That spectacular momentum scared the enemies into losing their souls. They were afraid once his name was mentioned from then on. The name “Longyin Killing God” was derived like this.

Mu YingYi saw that he couldn’t stop his father and on one hand, he ran after him madly. On the other hand, he sent someone to see if Zi You woke up yet. He knew that only You’er could stop Old General Mu. Even he and his brother could not.

Before Old General Mu stepped into Yiping Ju, Zi You had already woken up. In fact, she was not pretending to be unconscious earlier. Because she was in grief, she really was unconscious for some time. In the moment when she pretended to be possessed by her mother, the memory of the things that Mu YingRui did to her in her previous life surged forwards. Her hatred was heaven-piercing and monstrous. After scolding her slag father, she really fainted due to her excited state.

Afterwards, she woke up when she was carried back to Youran Ju. When the imperial doctor was taking her pulse, she used her internal power to make her pulse disordered. Even the imperial doctor did not find out the real reason for her unconsciousness.

When Old General Mu came, she pretended not to wake up out of guilt. She really had no face to see her grandfather. In order to disrupt the vicious woman Wang Yiping’s plan, she could only let her grandfather be sad and angry again.

Originally, Zi You wanted to hide it from grandfather. But she thought again and knew that it wasn’t realistic to hide it. If Mu YingRui hurt her, grandfather would be sad if he found out. But if she hurt Mu YingRui, Mu YingRui would certainly run over to grandfather and blame her.

So after thinking left and right, she still listened to Shangguan LingRan’s persuasion. “You’er, I think that you shouldn’t hide this from grandfather. He must know about your father’s cold-bloodedness and heartlessness. Only this way, would grandfather will be completely disappointed in him. Only when grandfather holds no more hope towards your father, would he feel more loving towards you.

“As long as grandfather holds no hope for your father and is cold to him, your father will hate the Wang Yiping whom instigated him. No matter what, grandfather is your father’s father. No son doesn’t want his father’s approval.”

These words were from Shangguan LingRan’s personal experience. No matter how indifferent his Fuwang was to him or how much Shangguan LingRan hated and resented him, he was still very eager to get his Fuwang’s recognition and love.

Zi You considered for a long time before she nodded to Shangguan LingRan’s suggestion. But agreeing was just agreeing. When she heard grandfather, uncle, and aunt’s anxious and sad voices, before she saw their extremely grieving faces, her heart already ached until she wanted to die.

At this moment, she really hated Mu YingRui and Wang Yiping. She hated so much that for the first time, she had the thought to kill them both. What filial piety? What blood was thicker than water? Did that slag man and poisonous woman count?

When Old General Mu and Mu YingYi were interrogating Liu Yanhong, Zi You didn’t dare to feign consciousness anymore. She quickly woke up. She understood Liu Yanhong too well. She was not a strong and brave person. Although she was greedy for wealth and riches, she was not willing to use her life to exchange for them.

Sure enough, after Zi You woke up for a little while, the person, whom Mu YingYi had sent to inquire if she was awake, came.

Once she heard that Old General Mu went to Yiping Ju with his sword, Zi You was panicked. She quickly put her clothes on and ran out.

At this moment, she really hated that she couldn’t stab the dog man and woman to death! The family was really in turmoil every day with them around.

If her slag father wasn’t back, the poisonous woman wouldn’t make any waves. Once the slag father was back, the poisonous woman had to cause trouble. She didn’t stop for even a moment.

Fortunately, the slag father was taking up a post elsewhere. If he was transferred back to the capital, wouldn’t this never stop?

Her slag father still had a year and a half to fulfill his prefectural post. She could not let him return.

As Zi You swore an oath to herself, she ran into Yiping Ju. She heard Mu YingRui’s piercing wailing. “Father, You’er is pretending to be obedient and well-behaved in front of you. You don’t know how wicked her mind is. She actually…… Actually had her maidservant come seduce me and give me an aphrodisiac……”

“Shut up!” Before Mu YingRui finished speaking, Old General Mu interrupted him. “You’re shameless, but I am not. You know exactly what you have done.”

“What did I do? Father, why don’t you believe your son?” Mu YingRui’s sad and indignant voice sounded again. Although Zi You could not see his face, she could imagine his pained face.

When she thought of how her biological father was so hypocritical just to deal with her, his biological daughter, Zi You’s body was cold to the bone, as if she was immersed in an ice pool.

She pushed aside the maidservants in front of her and went into the room.

Mu YingYi was the first one to see her. He looked at her pale face and unsteady gait and quickly rushed to help her.

His surprise was mixed with sympathy as he asked, “You’er, you’ve woke up? Are you feeling unwell?”

Old General Mu originally had his back facing her. When he heard his second son’s words, he immediately turned around and rushed over to his granddaughter.

He looked her up and down and left and right. After careful scrutiny, he was distressed and sad. His tiger eyes were tearful as he asked, “You’er, are you okay? You have to tell grandfather if you’re not feeling well.”

Mu YingRui also saw her at this time. His eyes didn’t hold any concern, care, or love. There was only resentment and blame.

He scolded, “How can she be unwell? She even dares to hit her own father. Can she be unwell? Father, brother, can’t you see that I’ve been beaten by her until I’m black and blue? You only know how to be distressed over her. Do you know what that rebellious daughter did to me?”

Wang Yiping was originally shedding tears silently on the side. When she heard Mu YingRui’s words, she immediately looked at Zi You. She said sadly, “You’er, even if your father is not good, he is still your biological father. Even if you hate him, you cannot hit him!”

Zi You looked at Wang Yiping’s hypocritical appearance and her slag father’s resentful, poisonous gaze. She didn’t have a trace of hesitation anymore.
