The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?

Tan Tai Hong put on his cold face again, "If the cabinet leader is also so frivolous, how can the people below obey him? It's very tiring to keep up such a mask."

Mu Xiyue agreed with him. "So now that you're so rich, why don't you just lie down and relax? I've been struggling in the apocalypse for five years, and after arriving here, I've been wanting to live a life of relaxation. If it weren't for that bastard Mu Fengnian, I'd be digging bamboo shoots and hunting wild boars in the countryside. Wouldn't that be so comfortable?"

Tan Tai Hong snorted, "With your boyfriend's identity, you still want to live a lazy life. What a joke."

Mu Xiyue knew that Xiao Yibai's status wouldn't allow her a quiet life, at least not yet. However, she had agreed to a six-month term, so she decided to wait and see. Now that she had lost her status as the eldest daughter of the Marquis's mansion, even if Xiao Yibai wanted to marry her, it would be difficult. He might even end all contact with her when he returned.

Mu Xiyue smiled indifferently, "If we can get along, then we can get along. If not, then we can break up. I'm not going to marry him."

After staying in the Soul-Seeking Pavilion for half an hour, Tan Tai Hong took the two of them for a walk in the city until evening before returning to the manor.

----

In Prince Jin's Mansion, Qi Feng had already informed Xiao Yibai about the incident caused by Mu Xiyue. Qi Feng also received the news that Mu Xiyue had left the city with a man. He paced back and forth anxiously. What was this incident caused by Miss Mu? Could it be that she didn't want her own master anymore?

According to Qi Feng's personality, he would definitely send someone to follow Mu Xiyue secretly, but the housekeeper said that without the prince's order, he should not do such a thing, as it would only arouse Miss Mu's disgust and cause trouble for the prince.

Uncle Fu saw Qi Feng scratching his head and was afraid he would do something reckless. "Don't do unnecessary things. The master is relieved to let Miss Mu come back on her own, which means the master has his own arrangements. Miss Mu is not the kind of person who is content with staying in the rear house. She can openly break up with Marquis Anyuan like this, maybe she discussed it with the master."

Qi Feng was deflated. "I'm not afraid that Miss Mu will abandon me and run off with another man. It's rare for the master to have someone he truly loves. Oh, and Miss Mu likes our manor's schizothorax. I'll go get some fish for her."

Uncle Fu shook his head as he watched Qi Feng disappear in a flash. This kid was originally a very calm person.

Qi Feng was anxious for a reason. There were rumors in the capital these past two days that Mu Xiyue had an affair with a man. Marquis Anyuan did not agree with Mu Xiyue getting too close to a man without a clear name. That was why Mu Xiyue made a big scene in front of the Marquis's mansion, trying to force Marquis Anyuan to agree by severing the father-daughter relationship. In the end, Marquis Anyuan drove Mu Xiyue out of the mansion in anger.

When this rumor started, the prince couldn't marry a woman with a ruined reputation when he returned to the capital, but Miss Mu did leave the city with a man.

Qi Feng sent people to investigate the source of the rumor and had already obtained evidence that Mu Fengnian sent people to spread the rumor. He suddenly thought of meeting Miss Mu under the pretext of delivering the fish to see how Miss Mu wanted to deal with the rumor.

Qi Feng first went to the manor of the palace to get some fish and then ran to Mu Xiyue's manor. Mu Xiyue was still in Luofeng City, so Qi Feng couldn't see her. He asked the people in the manor where Miss Mu had gone, but of course these people in the manor wouldn't tell him.

Mu Xiyue stayed at Tan Taihong's place for two days. As soon as she returned to her own manor, Zhang Da told her that a man named Qi Feng had come to see the Jin Palace. "He brought four fish, which are now being kept in Lao Tian's room. He said there are some bad rumors about you in the city, and he has found the person who spread the rumors."

Mu Xiyue nodded. "Okay, I understand. I'll take one fish, and you can divide the rest. This kind of fish tastes very good when steamed."

Mu Xiyue had no idea what rumors were spreading about her in the city. If she didn't have to make money in Shangjing City, she wouldn't care about the rumors. But since she still had to live here, she couldn't just let it go.

The next day, Mu Xiyue entered the city early in the morning. She first went to her own shops. Shops were places with a lot of traffic, so people in the shops would always know about any rumors.

Coming out of the shop, Xiao Tao said indignantly, "Miss, these rumors must have come from the Marquis' Mansion. It's really abominable to confuse right and wrong like this."

Mu Xiyue was not as angry as Xiaotao. "It's okay. It's not worth getting angry about such a small matter. I will make Mu Fengnian pay the price."

Xiao Yibai hasn't returned yet, and Mu Xiyue doesn't want to go to Prince Jin's Mansion at this time, otherwise she might be blamed by someone with ulterior motives for what she is going to do next.

The two of them went to the art gallery and asked Zhong Gao from the gallery to send someone to the palace to invite Qi Feng over.

When Qi Feng heard that Miss Mu was looking for him, he put down what he was doing and came to the art gallery immediately.

"Greetings, Miss Mu. I heard some rumors about you and investigated. It was the Anyuan Marquisate who hired some street dandies to spread them. Do you want to arrest them and send them to the authorities?"

Mu Xiyue smiled and waved her hand, "No need, just do me a favor and I'll handle the rest myself. I have to make Mu Fengnian spit out some blood."

Qifeng was very efficient, and by evening there was another noise spreading outside.

It is said that Miss Mu, who has severed her relationship with Marquis Anyuan, is a person blessed by heaven. Last time at the flower-viewing banquet of Princess Qinyang, Second Miss Mu framed Miss Mu and she was struck by lightning and one of her palms was burnt. Now Anyuan Mansion deliberately spreads such rumors to slander Miss Mu, and she may be struck by lightning as well.

Later, this rumor spread like wildfire that the Anyuan Marquisate would be struck by lightning if it had no conscience. Mu Xiyue, sitting in the art gallery, was very satisfied with the speed at which the rumor spread.

In the evening, Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao changed into men's clothes and put on human skin masks. Xiaotao waited not far from the Marquis's mansion and watched, while Mu Xiyue quietly went to the back alley of the Marquis's mansion. Soon, a shocking thunder was heard in the sky above the Marquis's mansion.

The sudden thunder startled everyone in the Marquis' Mansion, and several families living nearby also heard it. The sun had just set outside, and it was very strange that there was thunder in such weather.

Then there was another thunder. At first, there was one thunder every minute or so. After more than ten thunders, the thunder became more frequent, from one thunder every half a minute to one thunder every two or three seconds falling on the Marquis' Mansion.

The thunder lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it stopped. At first, people nearby did not dare to go out to see. Later, they gradually felt that something was wrong. The thunder seemed to be hitting the same place, so some people went out to see. What they saw was shocking. There was thunder and lightning above the marquis's mansion.

Xiao Tao was still shouting at everyone she saw on the main road, "This is really strange! Why did the thunder strike only at the Anyuan Marquisate? Did the Anyuan Marquisate do something heinous?"

People love to join in the fun, and the news that the Marquis' Mansion was struck by lightning for two quarters of an hour spread quickly as if it had wings. Some people saw it with their own eyes, and some people who didn't saw it with their own eyes also described it vividly.

In the marquis's mansion, the old lady kept chanting "Amitabha". Mu Fengnian sat in the study with a gloomy face and did not dare to go out. Even the servants did not dare to walk outside the house.

The thunder stopped for a quarter of an hour, and servants came out of the house one after another. Some trees in the yard were broken in half by lightning, some jars were smashed by lightning, and some roofs were pierced by lightning. Fortunately, no one was injured, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
