Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Lord’s Face-Slapping Frenzy for First Subscription (9)

The crowd gradually backed away, but as they left, their gazes towards Bai Xiyue and her servant carried a hint of a different meaning. Once everyone in the main hall had departed, Mu Lianrong turned to Bai Xiyue and said with a subtle meaning, ”Xiyue, Aunt has watched you grow up. In Aunt’s heart, you’ve always been that innocent, caring good girl. This matter is over now. You’re still injured, so go back and rest.”

After she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Lv Zhi with a touch of coldness: ”Lv Zhi, it’s your responsibility to consider your mistress’s welfare. But you must understand the role of a maid.”

”Aunt, it was Xiyue who was overthinking.” Bai Xiyue stood up softly, tears in her eyes.

Mu Lianrong looked at her, silent and contemplative.

After a brief pause, she sighed lightly and left the main hall.

”Miss.” As Mu Lianrong departed, Lv Zhi then stood up and approached Bai Xiyue.

Unexpectedly, Bai Xiyue raised her hand with a flick, the force of her sleeve directly knocking Lv Zhi to the ground.

”Ah!”

”You useless wretch!” Bai Xiyue cursed, venting all her pent-up emotions onto Lv Zhi.

”I’m sorry, Miss.” Lv Zhi held back her tears, trembling as she spoke.

Bai Xiyue wore a somber look and said harshly, ”If you don’t bring me out of here, are you waiting for me to be disgraced further?” Initially, her decision to leave the Mu Mansion was just an act, but now, she truly wished to leave, unable to stay for another moment.

When did Mu Qingge become so formidable, so clear-headed?

Clearly, she had considered thoroughly to ensure no mistakes before acting. How did everything change in just a few sentences from her?

Bai Xiyue’s gaze grew murky and difficult to understand.

She dared not inform Prince Rui of today’s failure, fearing that it would disappoint and make her appear useless to her beloved.

No alternative! She must destroy the relationship between Mu Xiong and Mu Qingge.

Pressing her lips together, Bai Xiyue returned to her own courtyard with Lv Zhi’s support.

After exiting Mu Xiong’s study, Mu Qingge tilted her head back and exhaled deeply towards the azure sky.

In the main hall, Mu Xiong harbored suspicions. Of course, the suspicion wasn’t directed towards her, but rather the change in Bai Xiyue. In her view, perhaps this was Bai Xiyue’s true nature gradually being exposed.

Yet, what puzzled her was why Bai Xiyue suddenly transformed overnight. From being long tolerant, to taking action today?

Certainly, Mu Xiong was curious about her reaction.

The answer she provided was that she had grown up, no longer the formerly childish and frivolous youngster.

Regarding the true course of events yesterday, Mu Xiong didn’t inquire, nor would she voluntarily disclose.

As she prepared to leave, Mu Xiong simply advised with a word: Be careful.

Mu Qingge’s lips curved into a faint smile. She murmured to herself, ”It seems the person in the Mu Mansion with the strongest sense of crisis must be the old man.”

What a pity! The old man couldn’t let go of the citizens of Qin Country.

Otherwise, how could the Mu Mansion be so passive?

Mu Qingge smiled helplessly and swept her sleeve to leave. Instead of returning to Chi Yun Garden, she directly led You He and Hua Yue out through the mansion gates, heading to the Mu Family Army’s camp in the suburbs.

The three rode horses, with the marketplace retreating from both sides.

Suddenly, Mu Qingge asked, ”What do you think, the Mu Mansion’s role is in Qin Country?”

You He and Hua Yue were simultaneously taken aback, seemingly confused about why Mu Qingge posed such a question. Eventually, it was You He who reacted quickly, and after a moment’s silence, said, ”The old Lord has fought on the battlefield for decades, safeguarding the peace of Qin Country. To Qin Country, the Mu Mansion is like a copper wall and iron shield forged in iron, protecting this land.”
