2674 Settling Accounts

Chenshang bowed neither obsequiously nor superciliously. “Master, Chenshang is only speaking the truth.”

“You told me that Mother left the Mu Clan on her own!” Mu Xingchen turned to look at Mu Jingfeng with suspicion in his eyes. “What did Qiaoqiao mean just now?”

“Eldest Young Master, Madam had no choice but to leave the Mu Clan of her own accord.”

“All these years, Family Head Mu has been deceiving his son like this.” Chenshang sneered. “No wonder he did not allow this old servant to see Eldest Young Master again no matter what.”

“This old servant has tried to see the young master over and over again. Every time, this old servant was either told that the young master was in closed-door cultivation or that he had gone outside to cultivate. This old servant was told not to disturb him.”

“Once, this old servant barged into the young master’s court late at night. However, this old servant got beaten and fled with injuries before reaching the inner court.”

“After that time, it was clear that this old servant wouldn’t be able to see the eldest young master.”

“If it was not for the fact that Family Head Mu still wanted to save face—in case word got out that he had no tolerance for others and was unwilling to let off even the elderly maidservant safeguarding his ex-wife’s home—this old servant would probably have long been killed.”

“Chenshang, you can just hide by yourself inside that d*mn house, yet you came out to sow discord! You really think this family head is afraid of killing you?” Mu Jingfeng berated angrily with a cold glare.

He should have killed this wicked old servant several years ago.

He should have killed her, this old fart, that time after failing to obtain the building and land deeds.

If she hadn’t craftily said that she had long left a trump card outside that would ruin the Mu Clan’s reputation should she be killed, how could he have cowered and kept her here until now?

Reputation was very important to him. In the eyes of the world, he was Family Head Mu. He was the pillar of support for the entire Mu Clan, so he could not fall.

“Family Head Mu, return to your own court if you want to swagger about! There’s no need for you to do that here.” The young girl brusquely gave the order to expel guests. “Prepare everything. Once the three days are up, I will personally bring people for the handover.”

“Don’t be shameless when I’m giving you face! At that time, I’ll make sure that you can’t bear the consequences of failure!”

“You! You!!” Mu Jingfeng was about to explode from anger. He flung his sleeves and walked out of the courtyard. “Okay, okay, okay!”

He truly had a good daughter.

Mu Qingya looked at Qiaoqiao with emotional turmoil in her eyes. She let out a long sigh and quickly followed Mu Jingfeng out.

On the other hand, Mu Xingchen was a bit dazed, but Qiao Mu didn’t want to pay him any attention.

Take care of his feelings?

Don’t be kidding!

He simply had the brains of a pig to not have his own judgment at his age.

Qiao Mu was unaware that right now her feelings were that of expecting better from someone.

How could the crown prince not understand? He went up to hold her hand, comforting her.

“Can you find a group of people who know how to keep accounts?”

The crown prince nodded and patted her head. “Don’t worry, leave this to me.”

Qiao Mu nodded. She decided to properly settle accounts with Mu Jingfeng.

Before the two could say anything, they saw Huifeng coming in with a grin. He reported, “My lord, the people from the shrine have agreed to our conditions. They sent over the contract for Chess Mountain’s spirit stone mine, as well as two blank jade tablets for entering and exiting the secret realm.”

The crown prince nodded without surprise and turned to look at Lady Qiaoqiao.

Qiao Mu nodded and said, “Mhm. Release her then.”

“Alrighty!” Huifeng ran off excitedly.

Lady Qiaoqiao and the crown prince exchanged a glance.

/Was it normal for their subordinates to be so enthused every time they received compensation?/

The shrine’s principal guardian Wen Quan finally got back the released Holy Daughter and the other priests.

The Holy Daughter was no longer submersed by the pure and holy glow of the past. She now looked like a beggar…

Wen Quan glowered at her fiercely. “Follow me.”
