You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman Chapter 754 ("Chang Wei beating Lai Fu")

Chapter 754 ("Chang Wei beating Lai Fu")

Looking at the Emperor's expression, Ding Wenfu hurriedly said, "Nothing."

However, Mu Ran below didn't care about any status. She just wanted to ask why they had withdrawn their protection from the Valoris in the first place.

"The Saintess should be nineteen this year, right?" Feng Yong Chang asked with a smile, seeming to want to bind this powerful expert of the Heavenly Dao to his side.

Upon hearing the Emperor's tone, everyone understood what he meant. It seemed that he wanted Mu Ran to marry into the imperial family and thus tie down this powerful expert of the Heavenly Dao.

The idea was good, but could a Heavenly Dao expert be easily bound?

Mu Ran also understood the Emperor's intentions and said softly, "Yes."

"Earl Mu, does the Saintess have a marriage arrangement?" Feng Yong Chang asked aloud, wis.h.i.+ng he could bind Mu Ran to the imperial palace. With a Heavenly Dao cultivator present, who would dare to attack!

Mu Anguo stepped forward from the crowd and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, the Saintess has no marriage arrangement."

Feng Yong Chang revealed a joyful expression and said, "My Fourth Prince is talented and has not yet married. I believe you two are the most suitable match!"

Everyone knew that among the Emperor's sons, the Fourth Prince Feng Yun was the most outstanding. The position of Crown Prince was still vacant, but considering the current situation, it was certain that the Fourth Prince would inherit that position.

However, Feng Yong Chang's words seemed more like an order than an inquiry.

In Feng Yong Chang's mind, he was the one who sent Mu Ran to the Supreme Spirit Sect. As a reward, he thought it wasn't excessive to have her marry his son!

So he didn't think much about it.

Mu Ran's expression remained calm as she said, "Your Majesty..."

Before Mu Ran could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ding Wenfu: "Your Majesty, what the Saintess means is that her marriage must be approved by the Supreme Spirit Sect."

As this statement was made, the entire scene fell silent, and Feng Yong Chang's face darkened instantly.

Though the words came from Ding Wenfu, they were undoubtedly Mu Ran's intentions!

This was an outright provocation to the Emperor!

Mu Anguo's heart sank. This Ding Wenfu!

He was actually framing his own daughter, sowing discord! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

Mu Anguo couldn't manage much, so he quickly explained, "Your Majesty, the Saintess did not mean that."

Feng Yong Chang ignored Mu Anguo and looked at Mu Ran, asking, "Saintess, can I make decisions about your marriage?"

Hearing this, Ding Wenfu smirked in his heart. If Mu Ran said yes, she would undoubtedly offend the Supreme Spirit Sect. If she said no, it would offend the Emperor. It was a no-win situation.

'Challenge me! You are still a little girl!'

Mu Ran took a deep breath. It was a dilemma. She said softly, "Your Majesty, Master has been very kind to me. I will seek the approval of the Supreme Spirit Sect for this matter, and I will follow your arrangements!"

Upon hearing Mu Ran's response, Feng Yong Chang immediately showed a smile, "The Saintess is wise and deeply favoured by this Emperor."

Everyone understood Mu Ran's intentions. The power of the Supreme Spirit Sect was immense, and the Divine Steppes wouldn't be able to resist it. Mu Ran's words meant she would return and explain everything to the Supreme Spirit Sect and then follow the Emperor's arrangements. This was to avoid offending the Supreme Spirit Sect. Her thoughts were very meticulous!

Mu Ran did have this intention, but her biggest concern was to protect her family!

Her parents were all living here, effectively serving as hostages for the Emperor. If she didn't obey, the Emperor would undoubtedly use her parents to threaten her.

But she also didn't want to see the Supreme Spirit Sect attacking the Divine Steppes because of her, causing the people to suffer.

If a marriage alliance could safely resolve everything, she would accept it!

Ding Wenfu didn't expect Mu Ran to agree!

It seemed he had underestimated this little girl!

If it were anyone else, they would surely rely on the Supreme Spirit Sect's backing, and the Emperor wouldn't dare to act against them!

A Heavenly Dao expert agreeing to such a thing was truly incredible. Kind-heartedness could indeed lead to one's downfall, ruining one's future. It was truly laughable!

The morning court ended amidst the joyous atmosphere, and there would be a banquet hosted by the Emperor in the evening, where Mu Ran and Feng Yun would be introduced.

Father and daughter returned home in a carriage.

They didn't speak all the way. Mu Anguo knew how great his daughter's sacrifice was. She had given up her happiness for the sake of both parties and had even sacrificed her path as a powerful expert.

When they arrived at the Mu residence and entered, they saw a woman wielding a whip, chasing after another woman and beating her.

It was the maid who was chasing and beating Tang Wei.

This was a carefully planned scene, taken from Chang Wei's beating of Lai Fu. [Chang Wei beating Lai Fu" is a metaphorical expression used to describe a situation where someone witnesses a scene without knowing the context or reason behind it. The phrase is used to imply that the observer only sees the surface of an event or a discussion without understanding its underlying cause or essence. The metaphor originates from a poem by Li Jie during the Tang Dynasty. The author describes how they witnessed "Chang Wei beating Lai Fu" but fainted without knowing the reason behind the incident. This expression is commonly used on the internet when people see others discussing or arguing about something but do not understand the context or the reasons for the discussion.]

Seeing this situation, Mu Ran's face immediately darkened, "What are you all doing?"

Suddenly, Tang Wei cried out, "Miss, save me! She's going to kill me!"

Tang Wei's arm was bruised and bleeding; this was part of the act.

"Miss, this wretched maid was stealing food!" The maid shouted.

Tang Wei explained pitifully, "Miss, she didn't give us any food. I only took a bun for my husband."

"Even if it's leftover, you wretched servant has no right to take it! These are all things from the Mu residence. Both of you have no shame!"

"Enough!" Mu Ran scolded angrily. She rarely lost her temper, but today she couldn't bear it anymore. No matter how strong a girl was, facing such a situation, she was not a deity and couldn't always remain composed.

"Miss," the maid quickly knelt down.

Mu Ran coldly said, "My Mu residence doesn't need someone like you!"

"Miss! Miss! You can't drive me away because of an outsider, please spare me!" The maid panicked instantly. Previously, the miss would have spoken up for her, but unexpectedly, she sided with that wretched servant!

"I don't want to see you anymore!" Mu Ran said in a low voice, then she helped Tang Wei up and said, "Come with me."

Tang Wei followed Mu Ran tremblingly, showing her acting skills were indeed top-notch. Even now, she still appeared frightened.

Meanwhile, the maid sat slumped on the ground, lifeless.

"Get out!" Mu Anguo coldly ordered, and soon a servant threw the maid out.

Wei Chang watched and a faint smile appeared on his lips. 'Little Tang's acting was getting better and better. Finally, she managed to blend in.'

Mu Ran took Tang Wei to her own room and took out some medicine.

"Sit down," Mu Ran said softly.

Tang Wei cowered to the side, appearing scared. Such an expression seemed normal before Mu Ran.

"Don't be afraid. I won't harm you," Mu Ran forced a smile, a smile that had to be put on even when she was injured like this. This was her fate. She would rather be the one hurt than see others getting hurt.

Tang Wei sat down slowly, still looking frightened.

"Stretch out your hand," Mu Ran said gently.

Tang Wei knew that this girl in front of her was very clever. She had to act convincingly; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to deceive her.
