Chapter 151 Wishful Thinking

After saying these words with all his heart, Mu Heng completely relaxed, and the "affection" on his face seemed even more genuine.

He took a step forward and tried to reach out to pull Kuang Guya's hand: "Yaniang--"

"vomit--"

Kuang Guya slammed Mu Heng's hand away, turned her head and couldn't help vomiting.

All of a sudden, everyone's expression changed, and Mu Heng's expression became particularly ferocious and embarrassed. However, the expressions of Kuang's family members were solemn.

After hesitating for a while, Madam Kuang couldn't help but ask, "Yaniang, are you pregnant again?"

"Bitch--" Mu Heng didn't wait for Kuang Guya to answer, and cursed at her with a sullen face.

"Who are you calling a bitch?"

Mu Heng's behavior immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Grandpa Kuang, Madam Kuang, and the three brothers Kuang Zhihai, Kuang Zhifeng, and Kuang Zhihong. Kuang Zhihong, who had the most explosive temper, jumped up and punched Mu Heng, cursing at the same time.

"I haven't stayed in her room for more than ten years, and she is still pregnant. If she is not a whore, then who is? I want to divorce this unfaithful whore."

Mu Heng was not willing to give up after being punched, but his martial arts skills were far inferior to his opponent, and he had no strength to fight back. He could only jump up, point at Kuang Guya and curse at him.

The two of them haven't slept together for more than ten years? Doesn't that mean Kuang Guya has been a widow for more than ten years with this man in front of her?

Mu Heng's words made the people in the Kuang family gasp in shock, and then they all became extremely angry.

Kuang Zhihong originally wanted to just punch Mu Heng once, to teach him a lesson and then stop, but now he couldn't stop at all. Even the others wanted to rush over and beat Mu Heng up to vent their anger.

Kuang Guya was suddenly exposed to this embarrassing truth in front of her parents and brothers, and she was both angry and ashamed. Her face turned red, and she was shaking with anger, and she couldn't speak for a while.

"She was unfaithful to her husband and gave birth to a bastard. I want to divorce her. If your Kuang family is afraid of being embarrassed, it's not impossible for me to keep this a secret.

Besides that she has to abort the bastard and cannot have any contact with that bastard man anymore. She can't mention the fact that our Mu family exchanged a concubine for a legitimate wife anymore."

Mu Heng's mind worked even faster as he continued to dodge Kuang Zhifeng's punches. While he continued to dodge Kuang Zhifeng's punches, he did not forget to seize this opportunity to make something of it.

Mu Heng, who felt that he had caught the Kuang family, felt a little embarrassed about being cuckolded. But when he saw clearly that Old Master Kuang, Old Madam Kuang, as well as Kuang Zhihai, Kuang Zhifeng, and Kuang Zhihong all had some concerns on their faces.

He was somewhat proud of the fact that this "green hat" could turn the unfavorable situation around for him.

He shouted at them more and more arrogantly, "Compared to our Mu family's exchanging a concubine for a legitimate wife, isn't your Kuang family's daughter's unfaithfulness more despised? Who would dare to marry a woman from your Kuang family after this gets out?"

"Yes. Mother, although you did something wrong, as long as you are still my mother, father and I will not make it public. This way, the reputation of your Kuang family will not be damaged. Otherwise, once the matter is spread out, who will dare to marry a woman from your Kuang family in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Jinghe immediately persuaded Kuang Guya with a happy expression as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. Looking at Kuang Guya's belly eagerly, he even felt a little grateful for the embryo inside.

".Who is pregnant? I was obviously disgusted by what you said just now, so I couldn't help but vomit."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 152 Failure

Seeing that everyone misunderstood that she was pregnant, Kuang Guya was really confused. After Mu Heng and Mu Jinghe said those self-righteous words, she was speechless for a moment.

After she recovered, she sneered at Mu Heng with a face full of sarcasm: "You want to take advantage of our Kuang family even though we are not getting divorced? What are you dreaming about?"

She said disdainfully: "I want to divorce you because I have seen your true colors and I no longer want to give birth to a legitimate son for you, a man who is already dirty to the core. I want to give you a way out. In the end, you still don't appreciate it?

Do you really think that everyone is like you, capable of doing dirty and despicable things? And a bastard? Are you so eager to wear a green hat on your head? "

Kuang Guya's eyes widened as she spoke, she was extremely angry: "Even if you are willing to be shameless for the sake of benefits, I am an innocent person, and our Kuang family's clean family tradition cannot allow you to frame me like this.

In this way, if only our Kuang family came forward to invite the imperial physician to diagnose my pulse, you might not be convinced. Don't wait until you leave this door and say something nonsense about us colluding with the imperial physician.

Just post your message and invite the imperial physician and doctor you trust. We, the Kuang family, also post another message and invite the imperial physician and doctor we trust. Let's all check my pulse and see if I have it or not. Now you will have nothing to say, right?"

As soon as Kuang Guya said these words, Old Master Kuang, Old Madam Kuang, and the three brothers of the Kuang family all knew what was going on. They immediately felt relieved, and Old Master Kuang immediately said, "Let's do it."

As he said this, he immediately ordered someone to take the Kuang Mansion's invitation to the Imperial Hospital and to invite two famous doctors.

Seeing that Mu Heng and Mu Jinghe were both standing there pretending to be stupid, he urged them a few more times, and finally forced Mu Heng to send someone with a letter to invite the imperial physician and the doctor outside.

The Kuang family and the Mu family still have good face.

Soon, the doctors and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital came one after another and checked Kuang Guya's pulse. The result was naturally that she was not pregnant, and she didn't even have any minor problems with weak spleen and stomach.

After paying the consultation fee, they sent the doctors and imperial physicians away one by one in a polite manner. Compared with the pride of the Kuang family, Mu Heng and Mu Jinghe both looked disheartened as if their wishful thinking had been dashed.

"No need to say anything. You two can divorce and the two children born by Yanniang can go back to the Kuang family with her. All you have to do is remove them from your Mu family's genealogy and never interfere in their affairs, including marriage, for any reason in the future.

From now on, our Kuang family is willing to make some concessions and write off all the grievances with your Mu family. I promise that our Kuang family will never use this matter as an excuse to embarrass your Mu family again in the future."

Staring at Mu Heng with a sharp gaze, Old Master Kuang bewitched him, "No matter what, the Kuang and Mu families were once in-laws. We have checked and found that although your mother was responsible for causing this incident, it was not your own wish.

Our Kuang family has always been clear about gratitude and resentment, and we won't put all the blame on you if it's not your fault. As for that concubine, Yaniang, the principal wife, didn't bother to argue with her in the past, and in the future, our Kuang family will also not bother to hold on to such a person who is not presentable.

That's too embarrassing. If we tell others that our Kuang family is arguing with such a person, how can it sound good? Besides, she is Jing He's biological mother. It is said that we should look at the Buddha's face instead of the monk's."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 153 Weighing the Pros and Cons

After a pause, Old Master Kuang said hypocritically: "Although Jing He does not have the blood of our Kuang family, we have always treated him as our Kuang family's grandson over the years, and we have some kinship with him.

So let her go, this is our last bit of kindness to Jing He. It is up to you to decide how to deal with that person, we will not ask or interfere. We only hope that in the future, both Yaniang and the two children will have nothing to do with your Mu family anymore. "

After saying that, Old Master Kuang glanced at Mu Heng, acting as if he was confident that he was not worried at all that Mu Heng would not agree to his conditions.

"We have already made such concessions. If you are willing, then fine. If you are unwilling and insist on making a big deal, then we are not afraid of having the matter brought before the Emperor. Let's see if the Emperor will let our Kuang family get what we want."

Mu Heng: "..."

His expression kept changing, and he kept weighing the pros and cons in his mind. Finally, when Old Master Kuang and the other people in the Kuang family showed impatience, he finally gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Can."

Mu Heng gritted his teeth and spat out these two words with a look of reluctance: "But you can't publicize the fact that Jingyan was removed from the family tree, and you can't change Jingyan's surname. When she gets married in the future, she has to stay in the Mu family."

Even though he knew that these things could not be concealed in the end, Mu Heng still wanted to keep a fig leaf hanging on himself. "Where is Qingyin? You only mentioned Jingyan, but the Qingyin who was replaced is also the granddaughter of our Kuang family." Old Master Kuang snorted and asked unkindly, "What do you mean by deliberately leaving her out?"

"Isn't Qingyin in danger?" Subconsciously, Mu Heng had already thought that Mu Qingyin was dead, so why would he even think of mentioning her? He was still stunned when he heard this.

"Pah, pah, pah, who said she is in danger? It is obvious that she will have good fortune after surviving a disaster. Even if all your Mu family members died, she would still be fine."

Mu Heng's words made the Kuang family frown and Old Madam Kuang cursed Mu Heng directly.

"She's still alive, and you found her?" Could it be because of this that the Kuang family suddenly found out the truth about the child swap? Although it was just a guess, just such a guess was enough to make Mu Heng feel even more disgusted with Mu Qingyin.

He frowned: "Where is that rebellious girl? If she's not dead, why won't she come out to see me?"

"Meet you?"

Madam Kuang sneered, "And then you sent her to the ancestral temple without any explanation? Since you don't like her, what else do you have to see? You don't have to nag her and point fingers at her anymore in the future?"

Mu Heng frowned angrily: "I don't want to see you then. As long as that rebellious girl doesn't change her surname and embarrass me, I won't ask who she will marry or where she will marry in the future. I will just pretend that I never gave birth to her."

Even though it was confirmed that Mu Qingyin was the legitimate daughter, it still could not change Mu Heng's deep-rooted hatred and contempt for her.

He didn't know how happy he was when he said these words at the moment, and how much he would regret it one day in the future.

"Okay, both children will keep their surnames. When Jingyan gets married, she can use your Mu family's land to get married and return to her parents' home. We have agreed to this."

Seeing that Mu Heng was happy, Old Master Kuang was also very happy and nodded immediately: "However, if you want us not to openly announce to the outside world that the two of them have no relationship with your Mu family anymore, it depends on what you do. If you can do it in the future without being shameless and getting involved with the two children, then we don't mind saving your face for the Mu family."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 154 Hint

"Okay, it's settled then."

Mu Heng nodded to Old Master Kuang and took a deep look at Kuang Guya. Seeing Kuang Guya's face and eyes full of disgust for him, without any lingering feelings, Mu Heng felt very suffocated.

However, he also knew that this result was already the best one, so he had to endure it no matter how hard he tried.

"Mom, mom, do you really not want me anymore? Even if I'm not your biological child, is the mother-son relationship we've had for so many years fake?

Mother, please don't separate from father. We can still be the same as before. I swear that I will double my filial piety to you in the future, okay?

Grandfather, grandmother, eldest uncle, second uncle, third uncle, please help persuade my mother. My mother is old. After the divorce, can she still remarry and have a son? Without a son, who will take care of her in the future?"

Seeing that Kuang Guya and Mu Heng's separation was about to become a foregone conclusion, his status as a legitimate son, the future prince of Yuejiang Marquis's Mansion, and heir would plummet.

Even though he knew that he couldn't stop it, Mu Jinghe still had a chance. Not willing to give up that tiny bit of hope, he threw himself at Kuang Guya's feet and begged her and the Kuang family.

"I'm not your mother. Aunt Song is your real mother. Even before you knew the truth, you never liked the Kuang family. You were always reluctant to stay at the Kuang family, and you didn't trust the people the Kuang family gave you, did you?"

With a cold laugh, Kuang Guya was not moved at all by Mu Jinghe's crying and begging: "It can be seen that you and I, and our Kuang family, have no fate. It can't be forced."

She took a deep breath, and continued to speak out what was in her heart: "Don't think I don't know that in your heart, you have long been dissatisfied with my daily control over you.

I will divorce your father, and there will be no one to restrain you anymore. You can go and look for Song Meier openly and honestly, isn't that great?"

The deeper the love, the more long-term plans will be made.

Thinking about how she had sincerely tried to do good for Mu Jing but was not appreciated, and that it was Concubine Song who catered to him for her own selfish reasons, even at the cost of hurting him, which made him feel close to her, Kuang Guya had long felt disheartened.

Such a person who doesn't know what is good for him, a rotten wood that can't be carved, a dung wall that can't be plastered. Fortunately, he is not his own son. From now on, he has no relationship with him anymore.

Thinking of this, Kuang Guya's mood suddenly improved for some reason.

At this moment, she even deliberately said to Mu Jinghe: "Since you like Song Meir so much, and you have already privately recognized your biological mother Song Yi Niang for her, and feel sorry for her. Then isn't it just right now? Song Yi Niang is your biological mother, and the Kuang family and I will not care about what she has done for your sake. After I separate from your father, you only need to ask your father.

If he really cares about you, his only son, couldn't he have made Concubine Song his legitimate wife for you, and made you a legitimate son?"

Kuang Guya intentionally or unintentionally emphasized the word "only" and paused for a moment. Then, she avoided Mu Heng and smiled at Mu Jinghe with an ambiguous meaning.

Mu Jinghe's eyes flashed, and he obviously understood the hint in Kuang Guya's words. Suddenly, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes.

Kuang Guya laughed even more happily, and her laughter made Mu Jinghe immediately realize that his reaction was wrong. He quickly restrained the expression on his face in a panic, lowered his head and said no more words.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 155: It's better to do it now than to wait for a day

"What nonsense are you talking about to a child? Aunt Song is just a concubine. Have you ever seen a family that would formally make a concubine their legal wife?"

Mu Heng didn't realize that Kuang Guya was playing tricks on his son right in front of him. Not only was he trying to sow discord between them, he was also secretly pointing out a "bright path" for his son.

He just felt angry after hearing these words.

I thought Kuang Guya deliberately said this in front of Mu Jinghe, asking him to make Concubine Song his wife. In fact, it was to humiliate me that I was only worthy of marrying a concubine as my principal wife, and to humiliate the entire Mu family.

How could he endure such humiliation?

Humph, since she looks down on me so much, I must prove it to her. See how he can marry another woman from a high-class family as his step-wife.

Clenching his fist, Mu Heng secretly vowed that he would choose carefully and marry a woman from a good family, and asked Kuang Guya and the Kuang family to take a good look at her.

And Kuang Guya. He also wanted to see what kind of ugly person she would marry after leaving him, other than living alone for the rest of her life. With anger and a hint of gloating, Mu Heng finally signed his name without hesitation on the divorce letter that Old Master Kuang had personally written for him and Kuang Guya.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for a day."

Looking at the divorce agreement written in his hand that clearly stated that from now on Mu Qingyin and Mu Jingyan had nothing to do with the Mu family, Old Master Kuang just wanted to laugh out loud three times.

He suppressed his excitement and said to Mu Heng: "Now that the divorce agreement has been signed, let's not delay it any longer and deal with everything today.

We will go back to the Mu family with you to edit the family tree, retrieve Yanniang's dowry, and then send this divorce letter to the government office for record. From today on, our Kuang and Mu families will go their separate ways, and we will no longer have anything to do with each other's marriages."

"good."

Although he felt that Old Master Kuang was a little too eager to press him, when he thought of the humiliation Kuang Guya had just given him, Mu Heng felt that if he didn't agree to this, Kuang Guya and the Kuang family would look down on him.

Moreover, if the matter is really investigated, even if he was kept in the dark from the beginning to the end, but it is spread out, the world will still think that it was him and that their Mu family had gone too far.

At this point, the only way to deal with it is to cut the Gordian knot. Therefore, Mu Heng found that he had no choice but to agree.

There was a divorce letter, and Old Master Kuang brought his three sons and Mu Heng to urge them personally.

The patriarch of the Mu family did not dare to delay, and had to open the ancestral hall as quickly as possible according to the wishes of several people, and remove Kuang Guya, Mu Qingyin and Mu Jingyan from the Mu family's genealogy.

After doing all this, with enough manpower brought by the Kuang family, everything went smoothly when counting and retrieving Kuang Guya's dowry, as well as the belongings of Mu Jingyan and Mu Qingyin in the Mu family's yard.

However, something went wrong in Mu Qingyin's yard.

The people who were sent to count the property were stunned to find that all the valuable property in the Mu family and Mu Qingyin's yard, including most of Mu Qingyin's clothes and jewelry, had disappeared. As a result, they had no property to count.

No one dared to hide such a major event, nor could it be hidden.

Soon the matter was brought to the attention of Mu Heng and Old Master Kuang, as well as the three brothers Kuang Zhihai, Kuang Zhifeng, and Kuang Zhihong who came to the Kuang family with Old Master Kuang.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 156 Conviction

Facing his former father-in-law and three former brothers-in-law, who kept silent but understood and looked at him mockingly, Mu Heng felt his face turn red, and he felt that he had lost more face than today in all his previous lives.

This must be Aunt Song, that short-sighted bitch who did this "good deed".

"What's going on? Where are the Second Miss's things? You guys are guarding Second Miss's yard, but you all took everything away. You all said you didn't know where the things went? Are you thinking that others are three-year-old children who can be fooled and let you make up stories?"

Mu Heng sneered and questioned the servants who had served Mu Qingyin and were kneeling in the yard. In his heart, he had already determined the guilt of Concubine Song.

He thought fiercely that not only Aunt Song, but also everyone kneeling here would not be able to escape.

If they hadn't helped her, how could Concubine Song be so confident and do such a ruthless thing? She emptied Mu Qingyin's yard of anything that was even slightly valuable?

Aunt Song dared to do this because she must have thought that her child-swap would not be discovered.

That's why Aunt Song thought that as long as she had the identity of Mu Qingyin's "biological mother", she wouldn't have to worry about being discovered if she took her belongings, not to mention that Mu Qingyin had been sent to the family temple before and had an accident whose whereabouts were unknown.

Even if Mu Qingyin came back, she found that all the money in her yard was gone. Could it be that Mu Qingyin, as a girl, could really shout out and tell others that all her money was taken away by her "biological mother"?

Haha, this is really a good plan. He took a large sum of money from the Mu family to subsidize his mother's family, and he did it without anyone noticing.

Mu Heng, who felt that he already knew the truth, saw that the people in front of him still dared to have a fluke and tried to hide it for Concubine Song. Concubine Song would not ignore their calculations. The group of people who were trembling and kneeling and crying out for injustice, while still stubbornly talking, suddenly laughed in anger.

It's not that he was stingy with the money. After all, the Yuejiang Marquis's Mansion was wealthy and powerful, and he really didn't care about the little money in Mu Qingyin's yard.

Even if he gave this money to Mu Qingyin as compensation, it would be just a tiny loss for him and not something he would feel bad about.

He cares about his own face.

This matter was exposed in front of the Kuang family, which gave them a handle and made them believe that he was really stupid. Not only did he indulge his concubines and favor his concubines, but he was also unkind to his children.

The more Mu Heng thought about it, the angrier he became. He didn't have the patience to interrogate the people kneeling in the yard.

He only asked one question, and when no one answered, he became completely impatient and turned around and left. Before leaving, he instructed the people around him, "Since they are unwilling to tell the truth even after being given a chance, there is no need to say anything in the future. Every one of them here will be given a mute drug and sold out."

Mu Heng's words caused great panic.

After he finished saying goodbye, he turned around and left without staying for a moment. Most of the people kneeling in the yard suddenly became anxious, crying and shouting at him, but their mouths were still just dry cries for injustice and mercy.

Mu Heng: "."

I have seen people who won't give up until they reach the Yellow River. But it is rare for someone to not give up even after reaching the Yellow River. He curled his lips, chuckled coldly, and quickened his pace.

So what if it was rare? Anyway, he already knew what they didn't want to confess, and he didn't care if they spoke again.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 157 Returning the Property to Its Original Owner

Those who could follow Mu Heng were all shrewd people. Seeing this, they knew that he was beginning to become impatient. How could he really allow those people in the yard to continue shouting and rushing towards him, further ruining his mood?

As a result, those people were immediately suppressed by the ruthless force, and there was no more noise.

But even so, Mu Heng only felt his face less hot after he walked a long distance away from the yard where Mu Qingyin once lived.

Holding back his embarrassment, he said to Old Master Kuang and the others with a dry laugh, "No one has lived in that yard for several months. Even if those things are still there, they should be almost broken and unusable. It would be better to convert them into silver, and then you can help Qingyin buy some new ones."

"Yes, I thought so too."

Now that she only had the silver and no longer had those old things, Qingyin no longer needed to have any extra thoughts about the Mu family.

Old Man Kuang stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction. However, although Qingyin did not need the old things of the Mu family to think about, she still had to pay off the money she deserved.

Glancing at Mu Heng, Old Master Kuang smiled and said, "She was born a legitimate daughter after all, but she has suffered so much injustice for so many years. Those things that were originally used by concubines are indeed not suitable for her to use anymore. How much silver do you think is appropriate to give her?"

"One, no, three, how about thirty thousand taels?"

Before remarrying and giving birth to a legitimate son, Mu Heng really didn't want to bring up the topic of legitimate and illegitimate children. But now it was his ex-father-in-law who brought it up, a man he couldn't afford to offend and who wouldn't show him any mercy. Mu Heng didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, so he could only endure it, smiling and thinking that he was paying for peace and quiet.

He originally thought that it was just a daughter, even if it was a legitimate daughter, ten thousand taels of silver would be enough.

But as soon as he said the word "one", the smile on Old Master Kuang's face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a frost appeared on his face. Mu Heng could only change his words in his own bad luck. Then his heart ached.

Originally, he felt a little painful for giving 10,000 taels of silver. Now, 10,000 taels became 30,000 taels. Even if he married a legitimate daughter in a grand manner, he might not be able to spend so much money.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Heng endured it again.

While he took the token and asked his trusted confidant to go to the accounting office to get the banknotes, he felt so heartbroken that he blamed all the incident on Aunt Song.

"30,000 taels? Mu Heng, you are really generous. Over the years, the shops and farms that our Kuang family gave to Mu Jinghe alone have generated far more than 30,000 taels of income each year. What do you think of this?"

Seeing that Mu Heng only took out 30,000 taels of silver for Mu Qingyin, they all looked distressed, and the Kuang family immediately despised him even more.

Comparing the two, and thinking about the things that Mu Jinghe had gotten from his family over the years, Kuang Zhihong snorted coldly and said, "Mu Jinghe and Jingyan have those things, but why doesn't Qingyin have them? Isn't it because we all thought that Mu Jinghe was the bloodline of our Kuang family? Now that the truth about their life stories has been revealed, shouldn't Mu Jinghe also return those things that belonged to Qingyin to their original owners?"

Not really? You have the nerve to take back something you have already given away? Mu Heng looked up at Kuang Zhihong in disbelief. It turned out that not only Kuang Zhihong, but also Old Man Kuang, Kuang Zhihai, and Kuang Zhifeng, all agreed with this shameless proposal.

Kuang Zhihai, who was not at all generous and magnanimous as the head of the Kuang family, also agreed, "That's right. We didn't know the truth over the years, and we spent no more than thirty thousand taels of silver on Mu Jinghe.

So now, in addition to taking back the farms, shops, and villas that we have given him over the years, we also have to ask him to return the 300,000 taels of silver."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 158: Anger

"Three hundred thousand taels? Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough."

Mu Heng was suddenly choked by his own saliva. After coughing hard for a long time, he looked at Kuang Zhihai in horror, as if he didn't know him.

"What? Do you still think our request is too much?" After Mu Heng's reaction, before the three Kuang Zhihai brothers could say anything, old man Kuang snorted and asked coldly with disdain.

Mu Heng: "."

Are they not letting me tell the truth? If the Kuang family is so shameless and insists on taking back the things they gave away before, it seems that they really can't do anything. After all, if this matter is exposed, they will be the ones who are in the wrong, and it is the Yuejiang Marquis Mansion.

"How come?"

With a livid face, he secretly clenched his fists, and Mu Heng showed an extremely ugly and stiff smile, almost gritting his teeth and said: "It's only right for Jing He to return the things, but isn't another three hundred thousand taels of silver a bit too much?"

Three hundred thousand taels. The annual income of their Yuejiang Marquis Mansion was only a few hundred thousand taels. The Kuang family asked Jing He for three hundred thousand taels of silver. If Jing He couldn't give it, wouldn't they have to take it from him again? When Mu Heng thought about it, he felt sick all of a sudden.

"Humph, it's just a little bit of assets, a mere three hundred thousand taels of silver. I believe that you, the Yuejiang Marquis Mansion, will not deny us, right?"

Old Master Kuang pretended not to notice Mu Heng's extremely ugly expression and asked directly, "It's getting late, let's quickly finish these trivial matters, it will be cheaper for us to go our separate ways.

Where is Jing He? Since Jing He is not here, it won't work if I send someone here alone. You have to send someone to tell him. You can appoint someone, or we can go to Jing He's yard together and watch them do this in person?"

"Dad, I think we should go together. Anyway, we don't have anything else to do right now. We can't run to my sister or Jingyan's yard and keep an eye on them, right?"

Without waiting for Mu Heng to answer, Kuang Zhihong said with a smile, "Besides, we can go over and count together. No matter how much money is missing, Mu Heng can personally make up for it immediately. It won't delay anything, how great is that?"

Good? What's good about that? You're really planning to make yourself a scapegoat and say it's good? This expected statement came out, not only did Mu Hengsheng not show the calmness that he had prepared for, but the veins on his forehead were throbbing, and he had a thousand curse words in his heart but he didn't dare to say a single one.

His face had long been so stiff that he couldn't even keep smiling.

However, under the aggressiveness of the Kuang father and son, he could not bear it and had to continue to endure it. He followed their instructions and went to Mu Jinghe's yard with them.

Soon they arrived outside Mu Jinghe's yard.

The group did not see Mu Jinghe coming out to greet them. Instead, the person who came out to greet them was Mu Jinghe's confidant Chang Gui. Seeing this, Mu Heng immediately became furious and asked in a cold voice, "Where is Jinghe?"

"In reply to Lord Hou, the eldest young master said he wanted to be alone and left. I don't know where he went, but he must have stayed in this mansion."

Seeing Mu Heng's rage, as if he was about to cause bad luck if he wasn't careful, Chang Gui wanted to hide but knew he couldn't, so he could only bite the bullet and walk out with trembling legs, answering cautiously.

"I don't know where he went?"

He kicked the man to the ground with his foot. Mu Heng angrily said to Chang Gui, who was so scared that he was lying on the ground and dared not move, "Idiot, why are you still standing here without knowing where he is? Why don't you go and look for him quickly? Are you waiting for me to go?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 159 Fear

"Yes, yes, my Lord, please calm down. I will go right away, right away." Chang Gui got up in a panic, rolling and crawling, and was ready to run.

"stop."

Before Chang Gui could run a few steps, Mu Heng suddenly thought of something and immediately stopped him with disgust: "Who keeps the key to your eldest master's private vault?"

"Yes, I took it. I took it." Chang Gui didn't know why Mu Heng asked this, and a trace of uneasiness flashed through his heart. But he didn't have the courage to not answer, so he could only stammer and tell the truth.

"Just leave the key and you can go away." Mu Heng said with his expression finally relaxing a little.

"."

The Marquis actually asked him to leave the key to the young master's private vault? Himself, did he hear correctly? Chang Gui stared at Mu Heng dumbfounded, his eyes wide open, and for a moment he was so surprised that he forgot to be afraid.

"What? My words don't work?" Seeing that Chang Gui didn't do what he said, he immediately handed over the key to Mu Jinghe's private vault. Mu Heng felt that he was embarrassing himself in front of the Kuang family again, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"I don't dare."

Chang Gui was so frightened when he saw Mu Heng like this that he almost peed himself. Without thinking any more, he quickly took out a purse from his arms, took out the key from it, raised it above his head with both hands, and gave it to Mu Heng tremblingly.

"Go away."

Grabbing the key, Mu Heng kicked Chang Gui in the heart again, causing him to groan and spit out blood. He lay on the ground for a long time before struggling to get up. Wiping his tears, he staggered to find Mu Jinghe.

Chang Gui didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to Aunt Song's plum courtyard.

As Mu Jinghe's most trusted confidant, he followed him back from Kuang's house and knew the big secret that Mu Jinghe was actually the child of Concubine Song. Without asking too much, he could guess where Mu Jinghe would be at this moment.

Plum Courtyard.

When Chang Gui arrived, he saw that the whole yard was silent. Even Aunt Song's two older maids were standing outside, each of them looking as silent as a mouse. He realized something was wrong.

It must be that my master and Aunt Song had a quarrel.

Just as Chang Guicai was thinking this, he heard a loud sound of porcelain breaking in the room. He shuddered with fear, his heart involuntarily tensed up, and he stretched his ears to listen to the next movement.

Unfortunately, no matter how long he stretched his ears, there was no more loud noise in the house.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Chang Gui couldn't possibly move to get under the window or get close to the door. In the end, he couldn't hear a single word they said.

Inside the house.

Having just swept all the tea sets to the ground in anger, Mu Jinghe lowered his voice and roared at Concubine Song: "Now it's good, they are separated. With such a big commotion, everyone in the capital will know tomorrow that I am just a lowly bastard.

"At the beginning, since you did it, why didn't you do it more thoroughly? Why did you have to be so soft-hearted and keep that dead girl's life to give her a chance to turn things around?"

"He'er, don't blame me. I really don't know how that damn girl could be so lucky. She fell off the cliff but still had such a good life. She was rescued by the people in the Kuang Mansion and took the opportunity to find out her past."

Song Yimei also beat her chest and stamped her feet in regret: "If I had known earlier, I would never have tolerated her. But now, things have come to this, what else can we do?"

Song Yimei shuddered, fear in her eyes: "Your father seemed to have spoiled me over the years, but now I know that he actually did it mostly on purpose for my husband, Kuang Guya, to see.

I know him too well, he is mean and ungrateful. After sending the Kuang family away, he will definitely show no mercy to us mother and son.

He might have made up his mind to let people know that he completely hates us mother and son, so that he can find a new wife with a good family background and have another legitimate son. What should we do? What should we do now?"

Chapter 160 There is a way

What to do? Of course, he could only let him know that he could never give birth to a son. Without him in the rest of his life, the Yuejiang Marquisate would never be passed down. Even if he was just a bastard, he had to think only for himself.

His eyes flickered, and Mu Jinghe stared at Song Yimei: "There is a way, it just depends on whether you dare to do it?"

"What method?" Song Yimei only heard the three words "there is a method" and was immediately delighted and asked hurriedly.

"It's very simple. Doesn't your father want to remarry and have another legitimate son? Then let him know that from now on, even if he marries ten or eight stepwives, they will only be decorations, and no other children will be born."

Gritting his teeth, Mu Jinghe's eyes were filled with crazy excitement.

"You, do you mean drug him or just let him get into trouble?"

If he wanted to let Mu Heng know as quickly as possible that he would no longer have children, the fastest way would be to give him drugs or create some kind of accident.

Concubine Song's eyes also flashed, and then she showed the same crazy excitement as Mu Jinghe - as long as her son's position as the only heir to the Marquis's mansion was preserved, then as a biological mother, would she be afraid that she would not be able to benefit from it? If the Marquis did not remarry in the future, there would be no legitimate mistress in the mansion, and she could even be the legitimate mistress. No matter which one it was, she would be the real mistress of the Marquis's mansion in the future;

If the Marquis still remarried, even if it was another mistress, as long as that mistress had no hope of giving birth to a child, she would not dare to offend him easily for the sake of her son.

If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth, so Mu Heng should not blame himself for being cruel to him.

After realizing this, Concubine Song nodded immediately, looked at Mu Jinghe with admiration, and said with satisfaction: "That's right, only in this way can you keep your status in the mansion unchanged.

As long as your position is preserved, since the Kuang family won't pursue me, then I will naturally be fine. After this incident, you have grown up a lot and know what is best for yourself."

"Let's not talk about these nonsense. What we should discuss now is how to do it so that he won't notice it and won't suspect that it was us who did it."

Mu Jinghe interrupted Aunt Song impatiently, feeling disgusted by her tone of praise.

This person is just a concubine. To put it bluntly, she is a slave. Does she think that because she is her biological mother, she is qualified to act like an elder to her? And she still has the nerve to praise him? Pah, if I praise him this time, I will have the nerve to teach him a lesson next time?

Mu Jinghe felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to listen to Concubine Song. But he thought that he had to use her for this matter, and he could push her out to be a scapegoat at a critical moment, so he didn't lose his temper even though he felt disgusted and uncomfortable.

He held back and went straight to the point: "I accidentally got a secret medicine a few days ago, which can make men become the same as eunuchs after taking it. But this medicine has no harm to women after taking it. Do you have any way to make my father take this medicine?"

"It's not difficult. He is not on guard against me to the point where he doesn't even eat easily."

Since there was a ready-made medicine, Concubine Song did not feel embarrassed about how to give Mu Heng the medicine. However, she hesitated when she heard that men would become eunuchs after taking the medicine.

I am only in my early thirties, still in the prime of my life. If Mu Heng is useless in the future, then wouldn't I be like a widow?
