Chapter 15 White Lotus' Vicious Acts Are Revealed
"Are you Fudong?"

When Mu Ning called his name, Fudong nodded nervously.

"Let me ask you, six years ago, two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, were you assigned by Mu Xi to find Jiang Banxia?"

Fudong carefully glanced at Mrs. Mu and Mu Xi, and shook his head in fright after seeing Mrs. Mu's sharp knife-like eyes.

"The servant doesn't remember."

"My sister, if you tell lies in front of the emperor, your tongue will be pulled out."

After Mu Yanxi finished speaking, her small snow-white hand patted Fudong's shoulder lightly.

Fudong's face changed, and then he knocked his head heavily on the ground, "I beg the emperor to forgive me, I say, I say everything..."

"...After Sister Yicui brought Banxia into Miss Er's room, I went to do my own thing."

Mu Xi was so angry that she got up and kicked Fudong to the ground, "Bitch! How dare you betray me!"

Mu Ning quickly grasped the key point, "Sell it? In other words, what Fudong said is true?"

Mu Xi suddenly realized that she had fallen into a trap, and she looked around in panic, until she met Mrs. Mu's eyes, and she slowly regained her composure.

"Yes, I did have people look for Banxia, ​​but I looked for her because of other things, Mu Ning, what evidence do you have to prove that I used money to instigate Banxia to buy Hehuansan? What if it was someone else, maybe It was you who called "stop thief."

Mu Ning sneered, "That's right, you and Banxia were whispering in the room, and no one else could hear them. However, there is one person who should know, after all, she was there at the time."

Hearing this, Mu Xi instinctively looked at Yi Cui who was kneeling on the ground.

Yi Cui also happened to raise her head, and the master and servant looked at each other, understanding each other.

Mu Xi was secretly relieved, she was still at ease with Yicui, she had been by her side since she was a child, and the rest of her life was tied to her, and she would never betray her.

Just when Yi Cui was about to open her mouth to clarify for her master, Mu Yanxi suddenly said, "Sister, do you know what a person whose tongue is pulled out looks like?"

Facing Mu Yanxi's threat, Yi Cui was very disdainful.

She is not a coward like Fudong, who would spit out everything after being frightened by a child.

It is absolutely impossible for her to betray her young lady.

"I……"

As soon as she was about to speak, Yi Cui felt as if there was something extra in her head, which made her unable to think or make up lies.

"...I followed the young lady's instructions, and took out the 500 taels of silver that I had prepared in advance and gave them to Banxia, ​​and asked her to go to Jiuzhentang to buy acacia powder... This is not a small sum, and the young lady asked for 300 taels of silver. His Royal Highness took..."

Mu Xi was immediately stunned.

Forget about Fudong, but Yicui is obviously the most reliable and loyal maidservant by her side, why did she betray her so easily?

Yi Cui was also confused, why did she tell the whole truth?

She wanted to ask Mu Xi for forgiveness, but when she opened her mouth, she counted all kinds of bullying Mu Ning by Mu Xi's mother and son. In addition to instigating Xiaohong to steal the original owner's monthly report, she also ordered Xiaohong to kill the original owner with poison and throw the original owner into chaos. Buried to feed the wolves.

Although Xiaohong is dead, the two servants who were assigned to throw the corpse are still there. With their testimony, Mu Xi cannot escape the crime!
"Tsk tsk, you really know people, know faces, but don't know your heart. Mrs. Mu looks kind and virtuous on the surface, but her daughter is so ruthless and vicious."

"You kind ghost, you can step by step from a slave to a concubine, and then become the prime minister's wife, monopolizing your husband's favor for 20 years, how can the means be so ordinary?"

"Cultivate one's morals, govern the family, rule the country and the world. Prime Minister Mu is the head of all the officials, but the back house is so chaotic, allowing the stepmother to bully the daughter-in-law, such behaviors of pampering concubines and destroying wives are simply stupid."

Hearing the comments and accusations from all civil and military officials, Mu Yuanlin's old face was burning with pain.

"Your Majesty, it's because I didn't discipline my daughter well that I made such a joke today. I'm ashamed."

Although Emperor Dongfeng had said when he first arrived at Mu's house that Mu Yuanlin was the birthday star today and he didn't need to kneel down, but when things got to this point, he had to kneel.

"It's not me, I didn't do these things, they were lying, it was Mu Ning, it was Mu Ning who colluded with them to slander me! Father, mother, emperor, believe me, it was Mu Ning who did it, it's all Her fault, you should arrest her and torture her..."

"Xi'er, shut up!"

Mu Yuanlin yelled to stop Mu Xi's cry for grievances, glanced at Mu Ning secretly, turned his head and pleaded with Emperor Dongfeng, and said, "Your Majesty, although Xi'er has a bit of a spoiled temper, her nature is not bad, I believe She was unintentional, she was just young and ignorant, and she was instigated by people around her to do wrong things.

The son does not teach the father's fault, the minister has devoted himself to the affairs of the court these years, and neglected the discipline of the children in the family, please the emperor, for the sake of the loyalty of the minister, forgive Xi'er once, and the minister is willing to accept Xi'er on behalf of Xi'er punished. "

Emperor Dongfeng calmly sized up all the civil and military officials, then turned to ask Chen Chongshan.

"Chen Gong, what do you think of this matter?"

Chen Chongshan glanced at Mu Yuanlin, who was kneeling on the knees, "Going back to the emperor, this matter is small, it's just private affairs in the inner house, and it's Master Mu's family affairs, but it's Lord Mu's injustice. The leader of civil servants, self-cultivation, self-cultivation and family governance, if you can’t do the first two points, no matter how talented you are, it’s hard to convince the public.”

"Then Chen Gong thinks, how should we deal with this matter?"

"But it's up to the emperor to decide."

Emperor Dongfeng: "..."

Hey Chen Chongshan, I threw the ball to you, but you actually kicked it back.

Emperor Dongfeng silently took out his small notebook and secretly wrote down a note for the other party.

Oops, what to do?

Although he was a little angry about Mu Yuanlin's affair with his second child, he didn't want to really tear his face and hurt his peace. After all, he still wanted to rely on Mu Yuanlin to help him manage the government and contain the party of Captain Xie, who was in charge of military power.

"Father, my son thinks that Mu Xi murdered my sister with vicious methods. He should be punished according to the law and give Miss Mu justice. If she is easily forgiven, everyone will follow suit in the future. Wouldn't the criminal law become a show?" , the society of the country will be messed up."

Seeing the third child who was jumping out in a silly way, Emperor Dongfeng felt happy.

That's the way it is, we should let the youngsters, the second and third, fight, and the old guys just sit on the sidelines and watch.

"Ming'er, in your opinion, what crime should Mu Xi be punished for?"

Mu Xi's face turned pale, and she immediately cast a look for help to King Qi Mo Yi.

Mo Yi, save me.

Don't worry, I'm here, it's okay.

After understanding Jun Moyi's hint, Mu Xi was relieved, and An Xin knelt down to stop defending herself.

It's just that she didn't notice the sneer that flashed across Jun Moyi's eyes.

Even if she was lucky enough to escape punishment, her reputation would still be infamous. As a popular candidate for the crown prince, Jun Moyi would only marry a notorious vicious woman as the princess if she was crazy.

"Father, the ministers are in charge of the Zong Ling, and the criminal law matters should be left to Wu Tingwei to decide."

Jun Moming is not an idiot either, he opened his mouth and kicked the ball to the Ting Wei Department in charge of judicial punishment and prison.

Well, you little six, you have the ability to catch the ball, but you shoot it yourself!
Tingwei Wu Zongxian cursed secretly, and replied in a muffled voice: "In my opinion, Mu Xi poisoned the King of Qin and mutilated his sister-in-law. The methods are outrageous and outrageous, and they should be executed here. Master Mu is incompetent in discipline, and he indulges his daughter in murder. As for the punishment, it is entirely up to the emperor to decide."
