Chu Yingge paused, looking at Chu Yanran's appearance, and suddenly seemed to remember something.

"How could I forget? What reputation does my sister have now? Wasn't she already disgraced long ago?" When she said this, Chu Yingge deliberately emphasized the last four words, "disgraced."

It would have been better if we hadn't brought this up, because as soon as we did, the people around us started to get into an uproar.

Chu Yanran was originally the most famous talented woman in the capital. Everyone knew her as the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family. However, since that incident, Chu Yanran's reputation in the capital has become infamous.

This matter had been gradually forgotten, but today, Chu Yingge brought it up again in front of so many people, not only embarrassing Chu Yanran but also ruining her reputation once more.

This is the consequence of making things difficult for Chu Yinge.

The people around her were talking amongst themselves, and in an instant, all the ridicule and sarcasm reached Chu Yanran's ears. She looked around in panic, and finally fixed her gaze on Mu Jingyu, but her eyes clearly showed undisguised disgust.

Indeed, no one will have a good impression of someone who is unfaithful and has a bad reputation.

Thinking of this, Chu Yanran's resentment grew even stronger.

He raised his hand, pointing his index finger at Chu Yingge, wishing he could tear the person in front of him to pieces.

"Chu Yingge, are you deliberately trying to embarrass me?"

"Did I bring this embarrassment upon you? Didn't you, sister, humiliate yourself?"

Chu Yingge took a step forward, her bloodlust even more evident in her eyes: "Today is such an important day for me. Do you expect me to give you a pleasant look when you come here to cause trouble?"

“And…” Chu Yingge paused, “The things you accused me of are completely unfounded, but everything I said is true.”

"You!" Chu Yanran was furious. She never expected Chu Yingge to be so presumptuous in front of so many people!

The angrier one gets, the less thoughtless the decisions one makes. For example, Chu Yanran actually slapped Chu Yingge across the face in front of everyone.

"Snapped!"

The slap was crisp and loud, and everyone was stunned on the spot.

A murderous glint flashed in Mu Ziyuan's eyes. He had originally intended to stop her, but when he saw Chu Yingge's gesture, he knew that the little woman was prepared to take the slap.

A trace of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth. Chu Yingge raised her head and looked at Chu Yanran with a smile instead of anger.

The smile was so eerie that Chu Yanran couldn't help but shudder.

"what are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing... You're finished."

"What do you mean?"

"literal meaning."

Chu Yingge gave Guozi, who was watching the show from the side, a wink. Guozi immediately understood and ran out, bursting into tears upon seeing the injury on her young mistress's face.

"Young Miss, our Ninth Miss has always been bullied by you. Now that she is the Seventh Prince's Consort, why won't you let her go?"

Before Chu Yanran could react, Guozi continued, "This Seventh Prince is also a member of the imperial family. Isn't his status higher than that of the Prime Minister's family?"

The preceding words were all prelude; only this last sentence is truly incisive and deadly.

"Shut up!" Chu Moran's eyes narrowed, and he prepared to strike the fruit with his palm.

Guozi doesn't know martial arts; if she were to strike him with that palm, she would surely lose half her life.

Chu Yingge's eyes darkened, and she pulled the fruit into her arms, forcefully taking the blow from Chu Moran.

Chu Moran was intent on killing, and the force of his palm strike was considerable. When it landed on Chu Yingge's back, its destructive power was astonishing.

Chu Yingge's fingers flew, subtly gripping her heart meridian. Since she had already taken this blow, she couldn't let it go to waste. She had to make good use of it, otherwise, how could she repay Chu Moran's good intentions?

This time, she was determined to ensure that Chu Yanran and her brother would never have a chance to recover!

A mouthful of blood gushed out, and Chu Yingge fell straight to the ground. Mu Jingyu reached out to catch her, but Mu Ziyuan beat him to it.

Guozi was terrified when she saw this, and it took her a long time to react.

"Young Master, how could you so cruelly try to kill Miss Jiu!"

"I don't!"

"With all the witnesses and evidence here, do you still want to deny it?" Guozi's acting skills were truly top-notch. With just a few words, she put Chu Yanran and her brother in the eye of the storm.

Mu Ziyuan swept the person in his arms around the waist, his eyes coldly sweeping over the surroundings before finally looking at the unpredictable Mu Jingyu.

"Your Majesty had better give me an explanation for what happened today, otherwise I will absolutely not let this go! And the Prime Minister's residence had better give me a satisfactory reply!"

With that, Mu Ziyuan carried Chu Yingge away from the front yard.

Watching Mu Ziyuan carry Chu Yingge away, Mu Jingyu's expression was the most complicated.

He never expected that Chu Yingge was completely unharmed, and he was even more surprised that things had progressed to this point and the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable.

These Chu siblings are truly brainless. They went on a killing spree on the Seventh Prince's territory, and the person they killed was none other than the Seventh Prince's wife. In the eyes of the civil and military officials, this matter cannot be handled with favoritism or perversion of the law.

It's one thing for Chu Yanran to be impulsive, after all, she's a woman, but Chu Moran is someone he personally cultivated, how could she act so carelessly?

Everyone in the courtyard looked at Mu Jingyu, waiting for what he would say next.

Guozi was worried about Chu Yingge, and seeing that the food was almost ready, she removed it from the front yard.

Visiting the bamboo garden,

Mu Ziyuan carried Chu Yingge to the bridal chamber and gently placed her on the bed, his anger clearly visible in his eyes.

"Do you know what you promised me?" When he was angry, Mu Ziyuan liked to use honorifics.

Chu Yingge struggled to get up from the bed. Although she did it on purpose, Chu Moran's palm strike could have been fatal. If she hadn't become much stronger than before, she might have really been killed.

With a light cough, the blood stuck in her throat was expelled, staining the snow-white handkerchief with a touch of red.

Seeing this scene, Mu Ziyuan couldn't bear to blame her. He picked up a teapot from the table next to him, poured a cup of water, and brought it to Chu Yingge.

"Don't do that again."

"it is good."

Chu Yingge nodded gently, took the teacup from Mu Ziyuan's hand, and took a sip.

"You don't need to stay here with me now. I'm fine. The most important thing right now is the situation outside."

"I know." Mu Ziyuan shook his head helplessly. "How can you let all that hard work go to waste? Don't worry, this time, I definitely won't let it go so easily!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news."

"Okay, you get some rest." After saying that, Mu Ziyuan nodded to Chu Yingge and strode out of the room.

No sooner had Mu Ziyuan left than Guo Zi arrived. Seeing the person lying on the bed, tears immediately streamed down her face.

Chu Yingge frowned and beckoned Guozi over.

"There's no one else here, so please stop showing off your acting skills, okay?"
