"Master, things went very well. Now the city is full of news that Mu Wanxi beat her own sister. This matter has even caused controversy in the palace." Lan Yi and Zi Yi knelt in front of Mu Tianxue and replied respectfully.
.
Mu Tianxue was leaning on the soft couch, flipping through the book in her hand carelessly. After hearing Lan Yi's report, she stretched out comfortably and said: Everyone, get up! Is there any news from the palace?"
"Master, as soon as I retired from the court, General Mu was sent to the imperial study by the emperor," Lan Yi replied respectfully.
imperial study room
With a worried heart, Mu Bingao stepped into the royal study, came to the emperor, knelt down respectfully and kowtowed: "Old minister, I see you, the emperor."
"Pa..." Emperor Long Yan was furious and punched a painting on Dali's table. He looked angrily at Mu Bin'ao who was kneeling on the ground, grabbed the painting and threw it at Mu Bin'ao, and said angrily
: "General Mu, tell me what is going on."
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Mu Bingnao shuddered. He raised his eyes and saw the painting in front of him. When he looked carefully at the person in the painting, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He hurriedly said in horror: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This must be someone.
This painting of falsely accusing the second daughter of the old minister is obviously someone deliberately destroying the reputation of the second daughter of the old minister. I hope the emperor will find out."
"General Mu, do you know how harmful and lethal this rumor is?" The emperor's face was full of anger. He pointed angrily at Mu Bingao and said angrily: "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles. Your general's palace is in chaos.
A daughter, Mu Tianxue, had an affair with a servant and became infamous, causing the royal family to have to bear the shame.
The concubine Mu Wanxi is about to marry the prince, but she has caused such a mess. With such a reputation as a poisonous woman, how can she assume the position of the prince's concubine and support the prince."
"The old minister failed to teach his daughter well, so I ask the emperor to punish me. Someone must have wanted to prevent the old minister's second daughter from marrying the prince, so he created these rumors and maliciously slandered the old minister's second daughter. I ask the emperor to look into it clearly."
Mu Bingao knelt on the ground in horror, his clothes wet with cold sweat, and bead-sized beads of sweat on his forehead fell to the ground. Mu Wanxi's crown prince position was obtained by him with all his efforts, and he would never allow it.
Anyone who destroys it must have done it intentionally.
"I don't care whether this is true or whether it is maliciously spread by others. This rumor has already had a great impact on the marriage of Mu Wanxi and the prince. For the sake of the reputation of the royal family, the marriage of Mu Wanxi and the prince has been postponed." The emperor said gloomily
Face, said angrily: "I, put the ugly words here for now. No matter what method you use, try to calm down this rumor as soon as possible, and find a way to let the people have a new understanding of Mu Wanxi. If Mu Wanxi's viciousness this time
If his name has taken root in the hearts of the people and cannot subvert good conduct, then the marriage between Mu Wanxi and the prince will be at risk."
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Old minister, please remember that we will calm down the storm as soon as possible and will not let the reputation of the future crown princess be ruined or the reputation of the royal family be insulted."
Mu Bingao felt a little relieved. As long as the emperor did not immediately step down from the position of Crown Princess Mu Wanxi, he would have a way to reverse the situation and turn things around.
After exiting the imperial study, Mu Bin'ao angrily crumpled the painting into a ball, returned to the General's Mansion full of anger, and went straight to Mu Wanxi's villa.
Mu Wanxi was sitting in front of the table at this time, looking at the female commander casually. She knew nothing about the vicious rumors about her. She was still thinking about what the man in black said, which could help her successfully become the crown princess.
, and it can also help her win the prince's heart, which is extremely important to her.
"Master..." Seeing Mu Bingao rush to the other garden in anger, Cai Die's heart trembled, and she quickly stepped forward and said in horror: "Master, the second young lady... she is reading a book..."
"Get out of here." Mu Bingnao pushed away the colorful butterfly that was blocking him, and angrily opened Mu Wanxi's door. Without saying a word after entering, he slapped Mu Wanxi hard in the face first, and then
He said angrily: "You useless thing, how many times have I warned you to pay attention to your reputation, restrain your temper, and don't cause trouble, but you are good enough to beat your sister. You have ruined your reputation and made the emperor want to retreat."
I really want to kill you, this useless thing, with one palm."
Mu Wanxi was stunned by Mu Bin'ao's slap. She didn't react at all. She didn't even hear Mu Bin'ao's words clearly. She only felt a buzzing in her ears. She covered her face that hurt from the slap and was stunned.
He stared at Mu Bingao, and after a while, he came to his senses and asked in confusion: "Father, why did you beat your daughter, and what did your daughter do wrong?"
"What did you do wrong? Take a look for yourself and see what good things you have done." Mu Bingnao threw the painting Mu Fu gave him in front of Mu Wanxi's face and said angrily: "Take a good look.
, what have you done?"
Mu Wanxi reached out and grabbed the paper that fell on her face. She felt uneasy. It was definitely not an easy thing to make her father so angry. When she saw the two people drawn on the paper, she immediately opened her eyes wide and revealed a look.
With a look of astonishment, "Who painted this...this painting...?"
"How dare you ask who painted it? Now people all over the city are talking about how you treated your sister badly. Because of this, the emperor also postponed your engagement with the prince. If you don't want to repent and can't calm down the storm, your Majesty
Your engagement with the prince will definitely be broken off, and you will never want to marry into the royal family from now on."
Mu Bingao was so angry that he wanted to strangle Mu Wanxi to death. He had tried so hard to help her get the position of Crown Princess, but she had ruined her character and reputation so easily.
The veins on his forehead popped out in anger.
"What? Cancel...cancel the engagement?" Mu Wanxi's hand shook, and the drawing paper fluttered to the ground. She knelt down in front of Mu Bin'ao, crying and begging: "Father, please help your daughter, she will definitely do it.
If I change, I will restrain my temper, never cause trouble, and never cause trouble to my father. I ask my father to find a way to prevent the emperor from issuing an order to break off the engagement, and my daughter cannot break off the engagement with the prince."
"Listen to me, if you want to successfully become the Crown Princess, you must control your arrogant and domineering temperament. No matter who you meet, you must greet everyone with a smile.
Even if you hate the other person or are very annoyed with the other person, you should not show a trace of displeasure. You must establish your own image of being morally upright, gentle, virtuous, and reasonable.
Otherwise, even my father will not be able to protect you from falling into the hands of others."
Mu Bingao said bitterly that it is easy to calm down the storm, but it is extremely difficult to let Mu Wanxi's good character be deeply rooted in people's hearts.
"Whatever the father says, the daughter will do it. As long as she can keep her position as the crown princess, she will do anything." Mu Wanxi knelt down at Mu Bingao's feet with tears streaming down her face and cried incessantly.
"You are now grounded, stay in your room, read the female commandments well, cultivate your character, and temper your violent temper. If you don't change your temper and give up the position of crown princess, I will beat you to death.
"Mu Bingao dropped the harsh words bitterly, turned around and left with a puff of sleeves.
