Lord Shizi's favorite is a crazy beauty

Chapter 41 The scandal
The streets and alleys of Shengjing.

At the last moment, everyone was still discussing how Qingyu, a vixen, had confused their unattainable Ning Shizi.

But in the next moment, the painting style suddenly changed.

There was no other reason. A scandal happened in front of Duke Mu's mansion.

In front of Duke Mu's mansion.

A beautiful woman about seventeen or eighteen years old was kneeling on the ground, holding a baby in her arms, her pretty face was sad, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

There was also a child about two or three years old kneeling beside him, next to the beautiful woman, his timid little face was full of embarrassment.

"Master, do you really want to be so heartless?"

"Rou'er has been with you for four full years and gave birth to a pair of children for you. Now you don't even want to see Rou'er?"

The people watching the play couldn't help but look at each other, and no one knew what was going on.

"Judging from the meaning of this woman's words, could it be that Mu Guogong's concubine?"

"Mu Guogong? I remember that he must be more than 50 years old this year, and spoil such a young girl?"

"What are you talking about? Of course it is the new Duke Mu. He has long heard that the new Duke Mu hangs around in the flowers. Now someone is coming to see him. Besides, the child is so old."

"Hey, even the new Duke Mu is old enough to be this girl's father, but now that he wants someone else's girl, let alone give him a title."

"You don't know that. I heard that the new Mrs. Mu's wife, Mrs. Meng, is very jealous, and she has some tricks."

"I've also heard that there was a servant girl who was pregnant with the new Mu Guogong's flesh and blood, but was beaten to death by the order of the Meng family. One corpse and two lives, it's a tragedy."

Everyone said something to each other, shaking off the scandal of Mu Mingyue and his wife.

"Speaking of which, this matter has reached such an extent that no one from the Mu family has come out. This girl is also pitiful."

"Heh, what's the use of coming out? Such a frail girl might be tortured to death by the Meng family within a few days after entering Mu's house. It's pitiful for this pair of children, who are lonely and helpless."

"That's right, this Mu family is used to committing crimes, bah."

Amidst the commotion, the door of Duke Mu's Mansion finally opened.

The person who came was Mu Mingyue who was the center of everyone's discourse.

Looking at the delicate woman kneeling on the ground, and then at the people around watching the fun, Mu Mingyue's face immediately sank?

"What kind of woman dares to slander the reputation of my Duke Mu's mansion in public!"

"Tell me, who ordered you!"

The woman named Rou'er immediately trembled with fright, and even her face turned ugly.

After a while, I slowly came back to my senses.

Under Mu Mingyue's coercion, Rou'er's voice was a little frightened, "No...no one...ordered me."

"I...I just want to see the Duke."

"I'm the Duke Mu you mentioned. Why, you were plausible just now, but now you don't recognize him?"

A stern look crossed Mu Mingyue's eyes, "Do you know that slandering the Duke of the current dynasty is a capital offense!"

"I...I didn't."

Rou'er had a stubborn face, but her explanation was so pale and weak.

"Come here, put this rumor-mongering woman into the Ministry of Punishment."

Seeing someone coming to fight for the child in her arms, Rou'er wanted to snatch it, but the disparity in strength between men and women was doomed.

Rou'er looked at Mu Mingyue and kept explaining.

"No, I didn't... I really belong to the Duke."

"This is a child of the Mu family, how can you..."

For a moment, the crying of the baby, the crying of the woman, and the noise of the crowd merged into one, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

"take away!"

Mu Mingyue made a quick decision, the reputation of Duke Mu's Mansion has been greatly damaged, and this matter must not be allowed to continue like this.

"You give me back my child, give me back..."

Seeing her child being carried away, Rou'er wanted to go forward but was held back tightly.

Hearing the baby's heart-piercing cry, Rou'er couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted in the direction of the gate of Duke Mu's mansion, "Mu Qi, do you really want to be so heartless?"

"You don't want me, don't you even let your own children go!"

"Muqi, come out!"

As soon as the words fell, the crowd suddenly exploded.

The one who raised the outer room turned out to be the former Duke Mu!

Even had two children!

Everyone never expected that the protagonist of this scandal was the former Duke Mu, Mu Qi, who was dismissed from the Duke title a few days ago.

Mu Mingyue's face turned ashen immediately, he never thought that Rou'er would involve Mu Qi on the spot.

"What are you still doing, take it away!"

Mu Mingyue hurriedly gestured to cover Rou'er's mouth, for fear that she would say something she shouldn't say again.

"Uh...uh..."

Rou'er struggled desperately, but to no avail.

He was about to be taken away by Mu Mingyue's people, but he heard a cold female voice, "Wait."

Mu Mingyue couldn't be more clear in his heart, no matter how big the trouble is today, it will pass after a while.

A weak woman with no identity and no background, it was so easy for him to silence her.

As for why there was no doubt that someone ordered Rou'er, it was because Mu Mingyue already knew about it!
Rou'er is indeed Mu Qi's waifu, and this pair of children is undoubtedly Mu Qi's flesh and blood.

It was also like this that Mu Mingyue had to solve Rou'er's trouble as quickly as possible. Duke Mu's mansion is now troubled, how can it tolerate another trouble.

But I didn't want to, someone still stepped in.

Mu Mingyue looked up, and saw the woman walking slowly in a plain white dress.

That face was so delicate that people couldn't bear to look away, but it made Mu Mingyue hate him so much.

It was Qing Yu, the chief culprit who harmed his Mu family to such an extent.

Mu Mingyue's face was gloomy, and he asked displeasedly, "What does the princess mean?"

Qing Yu raised his head, facing Mu Mingyue's dark eyes, "Isn't it too hasty for Mu Guogong to deal with it like this?"

"Sloppy? This woman has slandered the reputation of our Duke Mu's mansion, she should be executed for the crime, and now she is being sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. How can you speak rashly?"

Qingyu smiled, these ordinary people didn't know, but she knew.

This minister of the Ministry of punishment is best friends with Mu Mingyue.

This Rou'er has entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, even if there is a real grievance, it is impossible to get out alive.

Besides, the play wasn't over yet, how could Qing Yu let Mu Mingyue send Rou'er away like this.

"This girl keeps saying that she is from Duke Mu's mansion, and that the child is also from the Mu family's blood, but Duke Mu doesn't listen to an explanation. Could it be that there is something wrong in her heart?"

"Absurd, this woman was ordered by someone to humiliate the reputation of my Duke Mu's mansion in public. Does the princess think that I should let her talk nonsense?"
