Chapter 29 The calculator dies
On the other side, Li Zhoumu hurried back to his house and ordered someone to lock the door.

The women who accompanied Mrs. Li to the Yu family to cause trouble were now being pressed on the bench by their servants and beaten until they were crying and howling.

"You are really kind. While I am out on business, you can all make a difference!" Li Zhoumu paced back and forth in the courtyard, furious.

"Master, I am wronged, master." A woman screamed in pain, "It was the madam who ordered the slaves to carry the body of the third girl to the governor's mansion. I hope you will learn from it!"

"Madam, you've lost your mind and you're going to mess around with me?" Li Zhoumu was furious, "Hit me, hit me hard!"

"If it weren't for you talking nonsense to sow discord, how would Madam have found someone else to be so crazy?"

The women in Miss Li San's courtyard were so regretful that they wished they could have banged their heads against the wall and died.

They originally wanted to find an unlucky guy and let the madam vent their anger, so that they could lessen the punishment on themselves.

Unexpectedly, the madam went so far and ordered them to carry the body of the third girl to make a fuss in front of the Jade Mansion.

Let's make a fuss, but in the end, she was slapped in the face by Miss Jade in public, revealing the real cause of the third miss's death. She was really a little girl who was scarier than a ghost.

At this time, a maid stumbled over with a pale face, shouting sternly, "Master, my wife is seeking death in the room!"

Li Zhoumu was so angry that he felt dizzy. He threw up his sleeves and rushed back into the room, shouting at his wife, "Have you had enough trouble?"

"Are you making trouble? Am I making trouble?" Mrs. Li pushed away the arm of the maid next to her, rushed to Li Zhoumu, and asked with red eyes, "Li Yantong, do you dare to tell me the truth? Do you dare?"

Li Zhou Muzi stared at Mrs. Li with a swollen face for a long time, then suddenly said in a deep voice, "You all stand down!"

The trembling servants and maids, as if they had been granted amnesty, fled out in a panic and quickly closed the door.

Li Zhoumu glared angrily and shouted, "Are you embarrassed enough? Are you the wife of a dignified family being played around by a few wives?"

"What the mother-in-law said is what she said. We just met her once on the way back to the city. How could she have anything to do with San'er's death?"

"Let them go and accuse Miss Yufu. Where is your brain? You even took it upon yourself to carry San'er to the door of Yufu to ask for an explanation. It caused an uproar in the city! Tomorrow, all the teahouses and restaurants on the street will see the joke of our state pastoral government!" They have all been thrown into disgrace by you two!"

"Face, face, face, you know you want your face!" Mrs. Li beat the furnishings in the house like crazy, "It's a shame that I carried San'er over by mistake. Otherwise, you will still be kept in the dark, and I will die. I don’t know what happened to my daughter.”

"My daughter was born after ten months of hard work. She is a piece of flesh that fell from my body! If you don't feel sorry for me, I will!"

"Why did you hang her to death? Li Yantong, are you a human? You are not a human!"

"Pah!" Li Zhoumu couldn't bear it anymore and slapped his wife in the face.

"Why, just because I am her father! She is a girl who has not left the court, has an affair with others outside and ruins the family tradition, and she has an evil seed in her belly. She deserves to die!"

"You still have the nerve to yell at me and cry to me? It's all your fault! You have lax discipline and wanton indulgence, and she is so permissive that she is now so lawless!"

"How could you be so bold that day when you thought she was secretly ordering someone to put medicine into Mu Shizi's cup? Either she is out of her mind or she is very calculating!"

"You are such a shameless person, you want to accuse the Crown Prince of Xuanping Hou Mansion by doing such a destructive thing!" "Who does she think she is? What a shocking, aloof and arrogant figure the Crown Prince was back then, even if He is now more vulnerable than before, how can your daughter still be able to scheme against others with her pig brain??"

"That night, I sent someone to send all the information about the opera troupe and the rest to my office desk!"

Mrs. Li covered her swollen face and stared at her husband, her voice trembling, "What, what kind of actor?"

"What are you talking about, actor?" Li Zhoumu jumped up as if having a convulsion, and raised his hand to slap his old face, "The person who is messing around with your good daughter and committing adultery is a famous actor in the Zhu family class! That actor is called Mr. Qianyue!! That's it! Your daughter sent her old father’s face to the prince to be slapped hard!”

Mrs. Li grabbed the curtain on the side and fell to the ground in a daze.

"How did you become a mother? Your daughter is obsessed with an actor and can't help herself, and she shamelessly went to Wuhu County with the Zhu family to hang out with people. You have no idea at all!"

"You have raised such a good daughter! Do you still have the nerve to cry, make trouble and hang yourself here?"

Mrs. Li collapsed half to the ground, muttering to herself, "How could this be? How could it be? She said that the Zhenning Temple in Wuhu County has strong incense and that praying for blessings is quite effective."

Li Zhoumu looked at his wife coldly, "Do you know what kind of person Mu Shizi is? He went to the battlefield at the age of eleven, led the Black Flag Army at the age of thirteen, marched with great success, and took control of the capital of Xijing. Even the saint and the prime minister talked about each other. Praise, he is a talented person who has become famous at a young age. How could he be plotted by your stupid daughter?"

"When she plotted against the heir apparent of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, did she ever think about her sisters at home when she was having a romantic affair with an actor? Do you still have the nerve to cry when you cry? It only hurts her sisters who have not left the palace and those who have left the palace. What if this matter is revealed by their husbands? When the family finds out, how do you let them behave themselves?"

"If you don't want to ruin the future of everyone in the house, you should have never given birth to such a shameless daughter. I finally covered up the matter, and it's all your fault! You went to the gate of Yufu to make a fuss, causing uproar in the city. Everyone is laughing at our state pastoral office.”

Mrs. Li couldn't say anything. She just covered her face and cried a lot. Then she asked with sobs intermittently, "Then, where is the actor? Why don't you kill him? My poor daughter!"

"You think I don't want to kill him?" Li Zhoumu's eyes were red with anger, "He is also smart. When I found out that things were going wrong and I sent people to look for him, he had already escaped from Zhujiaban and is now missing."

Li Zhoumu glared at his wife coldly, "If you still want to make trouble and ruin the entire Zhoumu Mansion because of this rat excrement, don't blame me for ruthlessly divorcing you, you stupid woman."

When Mrs. Li saw him throwing away his sleeves and going out with a cold face, she couldn't help but lie on the ground and howl.

That night, Mu Zhao read through ten lines of a letter in his hand and lit it against the fire.

Li San should never have plotted against him.

Anyone who plotted against him should die!

"Li Zhoumu is a smart man and is very good at getting things done. After receiving the news from us that day, he dealt with the third lady without anyone noticing the next day."

"I thought this matter would be over, but I didn't expect Mrs. Li to go to the Yu Mansion today and confront Miss Linlang. Only then did she learn the whole truth."

"Now the matter is over."

A faint smile flashed across Mu Zhao's dark eyes.
