A breeze blew, and butterflies flew. The windows were bright and clean, reflecting the red moon.
The white cloth fluttered in the wind, and the other end of the gauze was unadorned. In front of the bronze mirror, the beauty combed her makeup. The cloud hair flower face depends on, but does not see Lang Xi.
He married into the General's Mansion for fifteen years, and at first he was very happy with her. However, why did he forget me in the blink of an eye? Suddenly, the red candle shone on the brocade bed. The moment the mandarin duck handkerchief was taken off, that handsome face captured her heart tightly. He had thought that they were a loving couple and that she was even willing to let go of her arrogant personality for him. Who knew that before the beauty was old, the kindness would be cut off first. One after another, the concubines entered the door and froze the tender heart of the bride. She cried endlessly but could not change her husband's heart. At this time, she knew that the man she married was so cold. She did not want to make herself suffer anymore because his desire to restrain his temper only showed how foolish she was. So what if he was arrogant and domineering, but so what if he was ruthless? The gentleness of the past couldn't change your heart. It was better to be a hateful person just to let you remember.
"Mother, mother…"
With a cry, he called back the beauty in front of the mirror and turned back. The bitterness on her face had already disappeared. Hearing her daughter's voice, she revealed a loving smile.
Bang!
The exquisitely carved wooden door was pushed open with great force. A light yellow figure dashed in like a gust of wind and pounced into the beauty's arms.
"Yue 'er, what's wrong with you?" Her slender hands lifted Leng Yue 'er's head, and her black gem-like eyes looked at her tearful little face. " Who bullied you?" Her delicate face was flushed red with anger, and her soft voice suddenly raised. In this empty General Manor, her children were her only comfort. This only daughter of hers was her treasure. There was actually someone who dared to bully her treasure. He was simply courting death.
"It's that little girl from the north courtyard." Leng Yue 'er's eyes were wide open as she gritted her teeth. Although she was afraid of Leng Wanwan's demonic technique, she couldn't take it lying down today. She had to take revenge.
"North courtyard?" Mu Zhaoyun raised her eyebrows." Isn't that the most remote place in the residence?”What kind of powerful little girl could there be in that place?
"Mother, it's Leng Wanwan." Leng Yue 'er stood up and shouted," That shameless maid gave birth to Leng Wanwan."”
Pa--
Mu Zhaoyun's body retreated, and the comb on the dressing table was inadvertently swept to the ground by her arm, making a crisp sound, giving Leng Yue 'er a fright.
"Mother, what's wrong?" Her mother's face was pale and she looked flustered. Why did she have such a reaction when she heard Leng Wanwan?
"No, I'm fine." Mu Zhaoyun shook his head, trying his best to hide the panic in his eyes. However, Xiao Lian's accusing gaze flashed in his mind. Four years ago, Xiao Lian was still a delicate and innocent little maid. He chattered like a child all day long. She used to like Xiao Lian, but she should never have gotten pregnant with the general's child. A fierce light flashed in her eyes. No one could snatch her husband away. She couldn't bear his child either. His children were only Yue 'er and the other two.
"Mother, that Leng Wanwan is a demoness.”Leng Yue 'er was still young after all. How could she see Mu Zhaoyun's complicated expression? She thought of that inexplicable fire and felt a little scared.
"Demoness? What nonsense are you talking about?" Mu Zhaoyun restrained his emotions and tapped Leng Yue 'er's forehead with his delicate hand as he said dotingly. "She's only a three-year-old child. Can she really bully you?”That child originally could not tolerate her, but who knew that her life was so tough. Xiao Lian's porridge was poisoned, but the fetus in her stomach was actually fine. Not only did she give birth safely, but the general also knew about it. It would be difficult for him to do anything about it. But if she wanted to grow up safely, it would not be easy. An unfavored girl would only be bullied in this courtyard.
"Mother, it's true." Leng Yue 'er didn't expect her mother to not believe her. She couldn't help but stomp her feet and pout. "She really is a demoness. She knows how to use fire. A few days ago, the forest that Father loved the most was set on fire by her. Today, my daughter went to visit her out of kindness. Not only did she beat Qiu Tang, but she also surrounded us with demon fire. The servants can be witnesses. Mother, you must stand up for your daughter.”Shaking Mu Zhaoyun's arm, she said coquettishly. Although she didn't see that the forest was also set on fire by Leng Wanwan, she was able to start a fire out of thin air today. Moreover, she was at the scene at that time, so it must be her.
"She really knows how to make fire out of thin air?" She didn't believe her daughter's kind intentions. No one knew their daughter better than their mother. Their daughter's personality was the same as hers. How could she be kind enough to see that girl? However, she said that Leng Wanwan hit Qiu Tang and even surrounded them with demonic fire. No matter how he heard it, it was unbelievable. That girl was only a three-year-old child, how could she use demonic fire? However, her daughter's vow made her skeptical.
"Men." She thought for a moment and shouted outside the room.
"Madam." A maid wearing a blue floral dress walked in from outside the house and bowed to Mu Zhaoyun. "What can I do for you?"
"Go and gather Qiu Tang and the servants and maids who came with Young Lady today.”
"Yes." The maid bowed and retreated.
"Mother, I feel that Leng Wanwan is not the same as before.”Leng Yue 'er sat beside Mu Zhaoyun and said while biting her lips. "Didn't you say that girl is as timid as a mouse and will only let others bully her? "But today, Leng Wanwan is not timid at all. Sometimes, I even feel that she's like…" Suddenly, she stopped.
"Like what?" Mu Zhaoyun pressed on. Why didn't Yue 'er say anything?
" Like-" Leng Yue 'er looked at Mu Zhaoyun, then closed her eyes and said loudly. "Like daddy."
"Nonsense." Mu Zhaoyun immediately reprimanded unhappily," How can that cheap girl look like a general? You have to know that only you, your brother, and your younger brother are the general's children. That girl is just a b * tch. How could she be like your father?”
"My daughter didn't say that she looked like her. I meant that her eyes were cold and made people shiver. Just like daddy." In her memory, her father was always away for a long time. When he came back occasionally, he was also cold. He didn't seem to like them at all, but she admired him very much. The people outside all said that Father was a great hero. He held a large army and fought on the battlefield. Only by protecting the peace of the border could the Heavenly Shine Empire prosper.
"Is that so?" Mu Zhaoyun was stunned. That wretched girl actually had a pair of eyes like a general? It was too hateful. His three children looked like him, but their temperament was not like the general.
"Madam, Qiu Tang and the others have arrived." Outside the house, a maid in a blue floral dress spoke in a clear voice.
"Come in." Mu Zhaoyun restrained his emotions and pulled Leng Yue 'er to sit at the table.
"Greetings, Madam and Eldest Miss."
Qiu Tang led the group of servants in and bowed.
"Yes." Mu Zhaoyun nodded." I heard that you were injured, Qiutang. Is that true? Put your head on."
"Yes, Madam." Qiu Tang raised her head. Her fair face was slightly swollen. Her shrewd eyes were filled with tears, making her look weak and fragile, making one feel pity for her.
"You're indeed injured." Mu Zhaoyun looked at the wound on her face and said gently. "Fortunately, I didn't use much strength. Otherwise, this face would have been ruined. Remember to apply some medicine when you go down, okay?”
"Thank you, Madam." Qiu Tang bowed and lowered her head, her eyes hiding her pride. As expected, she, Qiu Tang, was amazing. Even Madam was so gentle to her. Let's see who would dare to look down on her in the future.
"Have you seen the lady from the north courtyard?”Mu Zhaoyun's gaze swept over the group of servants, completely without the gentleness from before. Her delicate eyebrows raised with a hint of sternness.
"Yes, I did." Everyone replied in unison. Their hearts were still thumping in fear. He didn't expect that the always cowardly Miss Wan Wan had become so powerful. She even knew demonic spells. The fire burned so fiercely that they almost thought they were going to be burned alive.
"Ahem." Leng Yue 'er coughed loudly, her eyebrows raised as she stared at them with her big eyes. "I'm the only young lady you have."
"Oh, yes, we just saw a little girl.”The smart servants immediately changed the topic.
"Yue 'er." Mu Zhaoyun glanced at Leng Yue 'er before turning around to ask. "Did she really trap you with fire?”
"Yes." Everyone nodded. They suddenly felt that Miss Wan Wan was even more terrifying than the Eldest Miss. Eldest Young Miss was just a little arrogant, but that Young Miss Wan Wan actually knew demonic spells at such a young age, and could take lives at any time. For the sake of their lives, they must stay away from her in the future.
"It's fine. You guys can go down first.”
Mu Zhaoyun looked at their expressions. Indeed, they were truly terrified and did not seem like they were lying. Thus, he waved his hand and let everyone leave.
"This servant will take his leave."
"This servant will take her leave."
The servants bowed and slowly left.
"Mother, do you believe me now?”Leng Yue 'er said hatefully," That girl really knows demonic spells.”
Mu Zhaoyun did not say a word. This matter was too strange. That girl had always looked timid before. How did she become so powerful all of a sudden? He even knew demonic techniques? Could it be…
The wind poured in from the window, swaying gently, as if a ghost had come silently.
Mu Zhaoyun suddenly jerked. Could it be that Xiaolian's soul was causing trouble? She refused to let him go?
Pa--
She slid off the chair and fell to the ground.
"Mother, what's wrong?" Leng Yue 'er was shocked and quickly squatted in front of her.
Mu Zhaoyun raised his head and looked at her, his clear eyes flickering with a vicious light. He said word by word,
"We can't keep that girl."
