Chapter 208 Qingyuan’s Emergency, The Hypocritical Slag Father and Malicious Woman

Now, the Emperor, the Empress, and Taizi were added to this list of people because they killed too many innocent people. If she didn’t avenge those who died unjustly, then she wouldn’t be able to forgive herself!

Mu YingYi was also very anxious! Before he went to war, Nee Liu was still angry with him. Although she had brought their children to send him off, she hadn’t said a word to him. Now that he was back, she wasn’t looking at him from afar on a hillside outside the gate like usual. He was really guilty and regretful. He felt very uneasy like something had happened at home.

So, Mu YingYi and Zi You both had their hearts set on speeding home.

They and Shangguan LingRan, who was disguised as Old General Mu, hurried back to the fu. Wang Yiping and Mu YingRui were there with a group of people.

Zi You took a look. Yu Lanxuan was actually standing next to Wang Yiping, but Zi You didn’t recognize more than half of the people in the crowd. Nee Liu and her two cousins weren’t there, however.

Something must have happened to Nee Liu and her cousins. Otherwise, it would be impossible that Nee Liu wouldn’t bring her sons out to welcome Old General Mu back.

Zi You was anxious, but that didn’t show on her face. She went over to greet her slag father and the malicious woman.

But before she could move, Mu YingRui and Wang Yiping, with a big belly, quickly looked at each other and went over to greet her first.

Wang Yiping pretended to rub her eyes excitedly. She didn’t wait for Zi You to curtsy, before she grabbed her hand. She said tearfully, “It’s great that you’re okay, You’er! I heard that you were injured and it was unclear if you would recover. I was so worried that I couldn’t sleep. It’s great that you’re okay.”

Then she deliberately looked behind Zi You and asked in surprise, “Where is your Shifu? I want to thank him. What kind of expert has such great ability?”

Her drooping single-lidded phoenix eyes constantly roamed sinisterly over Zi You.

Mu YingRui’s peach blossom eyes also turned. He expressed his gratitude again and again. “Yes, your mother said that we have to thank your Shifu well. We can’t forget his life-saving grace.”

Wang Yiping was so interested in Zi You’s Shifu not because she wanted to thank him like she had said, but it was to splash dirty water on Zi You.

As llong as Zi You said that her Shifu was male, they could certainly pour this dirty water on her.

“Xiaojie.” At this time, Zi You heard a woman’s anxious voice. A middle-aged woman rushed over.

It was Aunt Lan. She cried out, “Xiaojie, hurry and go save him! Qingyuan Shaoye can’t hold on......”

“What?” There was a buzz in Zi You’s brain. She couldn’t care about dealing with anyone anymore. She pushed Wang Yiping and Mu YingRui away. She leaped upwards and soon disappeared.

Wang Yiping and Mu YingRui were extremely frightened! When did this darned girl’s martial arts become so powerful?

At this time, Nee Liu and her eldest son, Mu Qingheng were crying heartbreakingly.

Nee Liu was holding her younger son Mu Qingyuan tightly in her arms. The seven-year-old little Qingyuan was ashen. He lied silently in his mother’s arms on his last breath.

“Aunt!” Nee Liu heard a voice as beautiful as a nightingale. A woman as beautiful and aloof like Chang’e from the Moon Palace was next to her already.

Nee Liu seemed to be stunned silly. She looked at Zi You and silently let her tears fall, but she couldn’t say a word.

Zi You looked at her and her heart couldn’t help but pain. Nee Liu was haggard, sallow, and extremely thin.

She looked at little Qingyuan in her arms and thought, ‘Not good!’

She didn’t have time to pay attention to Nee Liu. She took little Qingyuan from her and placed him on the bed. She shouted to Aunt Lan, who had just come in, “Take all the servants and Qingheng Shaoye out. Close the door.”

“Yes, Xiaojie.” Aunt Lan took Mu Qingheng and drove all the servants out unceremoniously. “Xiaojie’s orders you all to go outside.”

Zi You’s eyes were vicious. As soon as she came in, she had seen two unfamiliar maidservants with hostile eyes. So, she had issued an eviction order without hesitation.

The two maidservants were unconvinced and protested, “We’re specially sent her to serve Qingyuan Shaoye by First Laoye and First Furen. First Laoye and First Furen said that we can’t leave. Ouch......”

They didn’t finish speaking, when they were each slapped hard by Aunt Lan. Aunt Lan seemed to have a fire in her heart that almost burned her internal organs in these last few days. She could finally vent this fire out today, so of course she wouldn’t let these two maidservants off.

Zi You concentrated her spiritual power on her eyes. She saw how little Qingyuan’s lungs were dark in places. He had stopped breathing and his heart had stopped beating. He had apparently just died from respiratory failure due to severe lung infection.

She didn’t hesitate in the slightest. She raised her palms towards little Qingyuan. A blue beam and a purple beam soon transformed into light waves and covered little Qingyuan’s body.

After a quarter of an hour, Zi You saw the blackened areas in little Qingyuan’s lungs revert back to a normal person’s red color. He was also breathing and his heart was beating again.

After another quarter of an hour, little Qingyuan made a “Wuu” noise and started crying.

This sound was tantamount to heavenly music to Nee Liu, who was about to collapse over the death of her son. And the sound instantly alerted Mu YingYi, who had heard Uncle Jiang and Nee Liu’s maidservants’ reports of little Qingyuan being ill and currently being treated by Zi You. He was now waiting anxiously outside too.

One person pounced over to the bed and one person charged through the door. Mu YingYi also pounced over to the bed and called out, “Yuan!”

Little Qingyuan looked dazedly at his mother and his father. There was obvious resentment and grievance in his heart. He was aggrieved and sad and didn’t want either one of them.

But once he saw Zi You, he reached his arms out and cried out heartbreakingly and gutwrenchingly. “Jiejie, jiejie, wuu......”

Zi You was exceedingly distressed. She bent down and quickly hugged him in her arms.

The little rascal knew that his jiejie really loved him and he cried and gasped in her arms. He was obviously extremely aggrieved.

Zi You’s spiritual power could save people, summon wind and rain, cure illnsesses, see through items, and could kill people. But she didn’t have the ability like her great-grandmother Goddess Mari to know the future and the past.

So, while she was softly coaxing little Qingyuan, she heard “Old General Mu” ask angrily, “Who can tell me what is going on?”

Wang Yiping and Mu YingRui saw little Qingyuan come back to life after he had been sentenced to death by the imperial doctors yesterday. They couldn’t help but be shocked and angry.

They looked at each other. Mu YingRui immediately pretended to complain and say guiltily, “Why did you have to do this, sister-in-law? No one wanted Yuan’er to pay with his life for Hui’er. I told you not to punish him. I told you not to punish him. But you didn’t listen and had to lock him up in the ancestral hall. As a result – Look. Yuan’er almost lost his life. How can I live with myself?”

Nee Liu looked at the hyopocritical Mu YingRui. She was originally on the verge of collapse because of her younger son’s death. She was very excited that her son was okay, but she was angered by Mu YingRui now. She sprayed out a mouthful of blood and collapsed straight down. Fortunately, Mu YingYi had been next to her. He quickly reached out and supported her.

Zi You instantly put little Qingyuan on the bed. She pressed down on Nee Liu’s philtrum and Nee Liu woke up.

She rushed over and hugged little Qingyuan and cried bitterly again.

Wang Yiping immediately pretended to rub her eyes sadly. She said sorrowfully, “Ai...... Our General’s Manor has had bad luck lately. First, the news that father and brother-in-law passed away came from Nanjiang. Then Yuan’er somehow pushed Hui’er, whom Shui Yiniang had given birth to, into the lotus pond and Hui’er died.

“Shui Yiniang was too sad and turned crazy. Laoye was angry and sad and said some words. Sister-in-law then beat Yuan’er and locked him up in the ancestral hall. He had a high fever that night and became unconscious. The imperial doctor came and said that he wouldn’t survive past tonight. I didn’t expect that he will wake up again. Amitabha, Buddha! This is great! Otherwise, Laoye will feel gulty to death.”

“If I remember correctly, Hui’er is only two years old, right?” Zi You looked deeply at Mu YingRui and Wang Yiping.

Then she lowered her head and asked little Qingyuan softly, “Tell me, Yuan’er, how did you meet Hui’er by the lotus pond?”

She didnt ask little Qingyuan “Why did you push Hui’er into the lotus pond?” This made little Qingyuan get the courage to explain himself.

Since Hui’er fell into the lotus pond, everyone had asked him, “Why did you push Hui’er into the lotus pond?”

He clearly didn’t push him. Hui’er slipped and fell into the lotus pond. But why did everyone not believe him? Even his mother didn’t believe him. She even beat him and locked him up in the dark ancestral hall.

As a result, he even saw a terrifying, green-faced, and toothless ghost.

“Jiejie, Hui’er...... slipped and fell into the lotus pond.” Little Qingyuan was extremely aggrieved as he sobbed. “I didn’t push him. That day, he was...... He was playing by the lotus pond. He wanted me to pick...... pick lotus seed pods. I said that it was out of reach, so he went...... went towards the lotus pond. I pulled him back, but who knew...... He slipped. I didn’t hold on tight enough and he fell...... down. Then I...... yelled for someone to come save him. But when those people went down...... and rescued him, he was already dead. Jiejie, I didn’t push him. I didn’t...... I didn’t push him. Why doesn’t...... doesn’t anyone believe...... believe me? Wuu......”

“Who was looking after Hui’er at that time?” Zi You absolutely didn’t believe that there were no servants around Hui’er. So, she asked, “There has to be someone looking after a two-year-old child near the lotus pond, right? Aunt Lan, bring the servants who were serving Hui’er over. Also, summon the servants who were serving Yuan’er over......”
