The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

After a long while, the Third Prince let out a long sigh, staring at Mo Yu with lifeless eyes, or as if he was staring at the curtain of the carriage behind Mo Yu.

I just heard him speak in a faint voice.

"It's really boring for me to be the third prince. My mother and my maternal family seem to be on my side, but everyone is calculating for themselves. I am the one fighting for the throne, and I have to bear the most thorns and dangers along the way."

"After the success, the one who benefited was the Mu family. Humph, yes, the Mu family is indeed my biggest helper at the moment, but in order to ensure the stability of the Mu family's position, of course, it may also be to eliminate dissidents."

"So my good grandfather can't possibly train a more powerful force for me besides the Mu family to become my arm. Is he too powerful to be a threat to his master? My good grandfather really has the nerve to say such a thing!"

The third prince narrowed his eyes and opened the curtain.

The carriage unknowingly arrived at the busy streets of the capital. The third prince looked at the crowd outside and spoke in a mocking tone.

"My dear grandfather himself said that the Prince of Chen is like chicken ribs to my father. It is useless to eat him, but it is a pity to throw him away. Even if he forcefully swallows him, it may get stuck in his throat and cost him his life."

"He even forced an analogy between the Xie family and Prince Chen. Why doesn't he think about the fact that the Mu family, which doesn't listen to me now, is useless to me? How can a Mu family that I can't use be better than the Xie family?"

Staring at Mo Yu who was sweating profusely, the Third Prince did not embarrass him, but just continued to mock him.

"And the Xiao family. The Xiao family was originally the Mu family, one of the supporters chosen by my good grandfather for me. Now it seems that the whole family is useless."

Having said that, the Third Prince suddenly reached out and pinched Mo Yu's face, forcing Mo Yu to look at him.

A trace of nervousness flashed across Mo Yu's extremely ordinary face.

The Third Prince's expression did not change. He stared straight into Mo Yu's eyes. He could see the expression on his own face reflected in Mo Yu's black pupils - the anger that he was trying hard to suppress.

The third prince said with gritted teeth.

"Tell me, when my grandfather was trying to win over the Xiao family for me, didn't he know that this family was full of useless trash? He always said that he had a pair of wise eyes and could see through people's hearts, so how could he not see through this bunch of idiots in the Xiao family?"

"He chose a good family like the Xie family instead of a good one, and entrusted such an important matter of marriage with the Xie family to the Xiao family. He is really my good grandfather!"

After saying the last sentence, the third prince pushed Mo Yu away heavily.

Mo Yu fell back and felt his cheeks burning, but he dared not say anything. He just knelt down respectfully again.

"Your Highness, calm down!"

Apart from these four words, he dared not say anything else.

The third prince closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and forced himself to suppress his surging anger. When he opened his eyes, the emotions in his eyes had subsided a lot.

Then he shouted to the coachman outside: "Go back to the palace!"

After shouting, the third prince began to mutter to himself.

"Don't worry, now is not the time..."

……

"Lingxi, what happened? Tell me quickly, what's the hidden story?"

Xie Zhibai really didn't expect that his sister would know so many private things.

He never doubted the truth of what his sister said, because he knew that his sister was not a person who spoke without thinking, and since she said it so clearly, there must be a basis for it.

Xie Lingxi did not disappoint her family. Under the burning gazes of her parents and eldest brother, she spoke in a cold and solemn tone.

"This story started three years ago. The fifth son of the Mu family, if I remember his name correctly, should be Mu Chihui, a bastard. During the Qixi Festival temple fair that year, the young ladies and young masters of various families went out to have fun. Mu Chihui fell in love with Miss Liu at the temple fair."

"Plus, Mu Chihui is already of marriageable age, and with his status, he can only marry a concubine's daughter who holds a lower official position than the Mu family as his principal wife. But Mu Chihui is not someone who is content to be second to others. He doesn't want to marry a concubine's daughter and spend the rest of his life with her."

Xie Lingxi raised her eyebrows with a bad look on her face.

"He is quite ambitious and wants to rely on his father-in-law to get promoted. After marriage, he can surpass the other brothers. Even if he can't beat the legitimate son, he must be better than the other illegitimate brothers. At the beginning, he just had improper thoughts about Miss Liu, but with this utilitarian mentality, he directly had evil intentions."

"And this Mu Chihui is also a bold, careful and daring person. In order to have an intersection with Miss Liu, he planned to meet Miss Liu several times and deliberately showed his courtesy, but was rejected every time."

Mrs. Xie, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but speak.

"How can this Mu Chihui be so ignorant of etiquette? Miss Liu is still a girl after all. Even if he has some ideas in his mind, he shouldn't set up a trap like this. It's really hateful!"

Lord Xie and Xie Zhibai looked at each other.

They are men, so they understand Mu Chihui's intentions. What the sister said was euphemistic. In fact, it can be said more bluntly that Mu Chihui just wants to force himself on her!

To put it more bluntly, they want to make the matter a fait accompli.

After all, with Mu Chihui's identity, if he could succeed with Miss Liu, it would be like being entangled by a toad for Miss Liu.

Lingxi also said just now that Mu Chihui had designed many schemes to meet Miss Liu by chance and showed his courtesy to Miss Liu. He must have done something excessive.

If it happened in public, whether it was just intimate words or other actions, it would be very detrimental to Miss Liu's reputation if it got out.

This Mu Chihui is really insidious.

Xie Lingxi looked at the expressions of her father and elder brother and knew that they understood the meaning of her euphemism.

On the contrary, it seemed that the mother did not fully understand, but she soon realized what a shameless bastard Mu Chihui was.

Xie Lingxi suppressed her nausea towards Mu Chihui and continued.

"Mu Chihui is a man of few feelings. Miss Liu has no such intention towards him. Besides, even if Miss Liu is slow, she is still a daughter of an official family. Mu Chihui has done this deliberately several times, and Miss Liu has noticed something is wrong."

"So, every time I went out, I was very careful and cautious, and didn't let Mu Chihui get close to me. But who would have thought that Mu Chihui would become even crazier if he couldn't seize the opportunity to interact with Miss Liu, especially when I later heard that Miss Liu and Sanlang of the Qin family fell in love with each other, and I became jealous."

Recalling this, Xie Lingxi's eyes were filled with disgust.

"Originally, Mu Chihui and Tan Sanlang didn't get along. Miss Liu fell in love with Tan Sanlang but didn't like him, so Mu Chihui became jealous and finally turned into hatred. He wanted to destroy Miss Liu with his own hands and make Tan Sanlang pay for it. He interfered and spent a lot of money to get Miss Liu and Tan Sanlang to agree on a time to go boating together."
