Chapter 140 The Prime Minister is actually a woman, and His Majesty the Emperor drools over her.
Xiao Ling suddenly broke free from the guards and rushed towards Mu Wanwan. Zhao Yihan thought she was going to harm Mu Wanwan, so he quickly drew the knife from the guard's body and stabbed Xiao Ling hard in the back.
Xiao Ling, who had been stabbed, grabbed Mu Wanwan's arm with both hands, looked down at the knife tip protruding from her body, and smiled through her bleeding lips, "Prime Minister Mu, you are just a man. You and the Emperor will not have a good ending. You will eventually kill the Emperor and yourself."
Zhao Yihan drew his knife, and Xiaoling spat a mouthful of blood directly onto Mu Wanwan's chest, the red blood quickly seeping into her clothes.
Although Mu Wanwan was scared, she realized from Xiao Ling's words that she thought her affair with Mu Chenfeng had been exposed.
Does that mean Consort Xiao also knew about it? No wonder Consort Xiao harbored such great hostility towards her.
"What if I were a woman?"
She leaned close to Xiaoling's ear, and Xiaoling, with her last breath, stared wide-eyed at Mu Wanwan, "You..."
She slowly collapsed to the ground, instantly losing all life. The guards stepped forward to check her breath and reported to the emperor that she was dead.
Several guards worked together to carry the already dead Xiao Ling out.
"Consort Xiao has failed to properly manage her servants, and has been confined to her quarters for half a month without being summoned to leave."
The party was ruined. Mu Wanwan stared at the woman on the ground, still crying with her face covered, and secretly she was overjoyed.
After everyone left, Consort Xiao crawled to Zhao Yihan's side, "Brother Yihan, I didn't mean to, I just wanted to..."
Zhao Yihan was furious and quickly distanced himself from her.
"What an idiot! He tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead! He almost got himself killed."
Consort Xiao explained while crying, "This move is risky, but the chances of success are high. I just wanted to help you solve two major problems at once."
Zhao Yihan finally saw through Consort Xiao. This woman was a complete idiot, all looks and no substance, good for nothing but being a pretty face.
Her self-righteous scheming almost ruined his empress. "Didn't I tell you before that you didn't have to do anything, you just had to wait to become your empress? Do you know that if Xiaoling had betrayed us, neither of us would have been able to leave here alive today, and we would both have been beheaded?"
Consort Xiao got up from the ground and hugged him from behind. "Brother Yihan, I really didn't mean it. I meant well but things went wrong. Please don't blame me, okay?"
Zhao Yihan slowly pried open her slender fingers, gritting his teeth as he said, "Stay in your palace and be confined. If you cause any more trouble, even if Mu Chenfeng doesn't kill you, I will personally finish you off! And Prime Minister Mu is now my man. How dare you kill my man?!"
Consort Xiao stood there dumbfounded, watching Zhao Yihan walk further and further away, and then she laughed loudly.
His people? Prime Minister Mu, as a man, is even more cunning than a woman. He actually managed to bring Mu Chenfeng from the palace into his grasp and even got Grand Commandant Zhao outside the palace to protect her.
She laughed at herself for being so naive, thinking that Zhao Yihan was sincere towards her.
She laughed at herself for being so foolish as to believe the man's lies.
She was nothing more than a victim of men's power games.
She could already imagine the scene of Zhao Yihan abandoning her after she ascended the throne.
Mu Wanwan walked out from behind the pillar with her hands behind her back. She didn't go far at all, but hid to the side.
Zhao Yihan not only promised her the position of Empress, but also promised the position of Empress to Consort Xiao.
"you……"
Mu Wanwan chuckled softly, noticing that Consort Xiao did not bow but instead approached her.
The usually arrogant Consort Xiao actually took a step back in fear, asking, "How much did you just hear?"
Mu Wanwan touched her chin and said ambiguously, "I've heard everything I should and shouldn't have heard."
Consort Xiao swayed and almost fell to the ground, but Mu Wanwan helped her up.
She pushed Mu Wanwan's hand away in disgust, "Don't touch me, it's disgusting!"
Mu Wanwan wasn't annoyed. With her back to Consort Xiao, she said, "Your Highness, why did you do this? To please a man, you actually poisoned the Emperor and me, and the result... tsk tsk tsk."
"Even if you heard it, so what? You go and tell the Emperor that I'm the mastermind. Do you think the Emperor will believe your one-sided story?" She forced herself to remain calm and confronted Mu Wanwan head-on.
"Consort Xiao, you overestimate your position in the Emperor's heart. In the Emperor's eyes, you are nothing!" She trampled on Consort Xiao's psychological defenses little by little.
"The Emperor loves me, but he has a hidden illness. Otherwise, we would definitely be a very loving couple, living a life that would make even the immortals envious."
"Oh? If he really has a hidden illness, why is he so proud and imposing when he's with me?" Mu Wanwan covered her mouth, feigning shyness, and said it out loud.
Humiliated by a man, Consort Xiao completely lost her temper. She pushed Mu Wanwan hard, but Mu Wanwan had some martial arts skills, so she only swayed and did not move an inch.
"You're a rooster that can't lay eggs. So what if the emperor favors you? Can you become the emperor's concubine? Can you become the empress? And you even dare to say you can give the emperor a healthy baby? That's just a pipe dream."
"People say you're a hen that can't lay eggs, so you describe me as a rooster? That's quite fitting, isn't it?"
Anyone can curse. You can curse a rooster, I can curse a hen, but no one can feel at ease.
“Consort Xiao, I now know about your relationship with Zhao Yihan. I have leverage over you. If you join forces with me to collect evidence of Zhao Yihan’s crimes, I can beg the Emperor to spare your life.”
Consort Xiao's arrogant expression vanished just moments before. "I... I am loyal to the Emperor. Don't even think about slandering me!"
"If I were to see you and Zhao Yihan, do you still think I would consider you loyal?"
Mu Chenfeng strode out, and Consort Xiao's face instantly lost all color.
"Your Majesty~"
Mu Chenfeng came to Mu Wanwan's side, reached out and pulled her into his arms to assert his ownership.
"My women will not be insulted by anyone! Who do you think you are?!"
At least the man who used to dote on her has become repulsive, no longer loving her, but instead embracing another man and calling himself...
No, he just said "woman"?
Is Prime Minister Mu a woman?
"Your Majesty, you are confused! She is a man!"
Mu Chenfeng took Mu Wanwan's hand in his and gently stroked the back of her hand. "So what if she's a man? I love her for who she is! Besides, I just made it very clear that she is my woman!"
Consort Xiao completely broke down, crying loudly and unrestrainedly, "Mu Chenfeng, how could you treat me like this? I am the woman you married with all due ceremony. From our wedding until now, you haven't touched me, you have no feelings for me, I can tolerate that, but why? Why can you be intimate with her?"
Mu Chenfeng played with Mu Wanwan's soft hand, completely disregarding Consort Xiao's feelings. "My body only reacts to people I like. Besides, don't you have Grand Commandant Zhao to comfort you? Why pretend to be so affectionate in front of me?"
