Rebirth Of The General’s Granddaughter
chapter-63

Mu YingRui was distracted by her tears and delicate, frail appearance. So he agreed to Wang Yiping drugging Zi You, but only if the drug was harmless.

Wang Yiping bribed her mother’s lover, Imperial Doctor Qin, and promised Mu YingRui.

The stupid Mu YingRui did not know that Wang Yiping would bring harm to his daughter. Medicines were 30% poisonous. How could there be a non-harmful drug?

So that gentle, ladylike, sweet and charming little wife was such a poisonous and vicious shrew!

She not only slapped his daughter’s face and caused her to fall on the ground of broken porcelain and be injured; she even cursed him and his family. If this could be tolerated, then what could not? Enough was enough.

Mu YingRui did not like his father controlling him. But his father was still his father. They were related by blood. How could it be permissible for someone to curse him?

Mu YingRui went over to the still-scolding Wang Yiping and kicked her. Then he helped the Zi You up from the ground. His face immediately changed.

Zi You fell sideways onto the ground. Her left arm had been pierced by the broken porcelain and blood was flowing.

It was over! If his father found out, not only would Wang Yiping be punished, but he would also be beaten. Mu YingRui thought of that terrifying military rod and anger gushed forwards. He rushed over and slapped Wang Yiping five or six times. He scolded, “You poisonous woman! You never stop, always trying to find trouble. What day is it today? It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival! You hurt You’er like this! You really don’t want the whole manor to have a good day right?”

Wang Yiping was not an ordinary person. Once she saw Mu YingRui, she already began to regret her impulsiveness. Now that she was scolded and slapped by him, she sobered even more.

Simply put, she was lowly person who bullied the weak and was afraid of the strong. She had to be beaten to come to her senses.

Wang Yiping relied on nothing more than Mu YingRui’s love and doting. If she lost this man’s love, she couldn’t move a step in the General’s Manor.

Great Yan valued martial skills over civil skills. Even the Emperor gave Old General Mu face. As for civil officials, even if you were a first-rank prime minister, you could not compare to a first-rank general’s resoluteness. Martial officials held more power than civil officials.

Duke Yingguo only had a title with no real power. Compared to the military power in Old General Mu’s hands, it was like comparing clouds to mud.

Besides, Wang Yiping was Duke Yingguo fu’s Shu daughter. Duke Yingguo furen always disliked her. Even if she returned to her maiden family to complain, her family couldn’t run to the General’s Manor to seek justice.

In addition, she was the unreasonable one in tonight’s events. Even if she went to the Emperor’s throne room, she couldn’t state an excuse.

After all, Zi You didn’t do anything wrong. She simply performed an exotic dance for her elders with a maidservant. As for Mu YingRui liking Shui YouLian, it had nothing to do with Zi You. Could the daughter control her father’s mind and prevent him from liking or disliking someone?

Wang Yiping was just jealous and angry and lost her senses. Now she was slapped sober by Mu YingRui. She immediately feigned being pitiful and delicate. She hugged Mu YingRui’s arm and cried, grief-stricken, “Laoye, Bieqie won’t… won’t… Bieqie wasn’t… wasn’t… deliberate. Bieqie thought Laoye… Laoye didn’t want Bieqie anymore. Bieqie was momentarily fearful and anxious and lost… lost her senses.”
