Chapter 32 - Threats

Mo Xiyan did not continue to exert strength, and only continued to hold onto her neck, looking at the prime minister sinisterly.

"Mo Zhen, this decision isn't hard to make, right?"

Her gaze was too frightening, causing the Prime Minister to feel a chill crawl up his spine, causing him to involuntarily shiver.

"You just want this old house?" The Prime Minister had a puzzled look on his face as he asked her, he did not believe that Mo Xiyan would only waste her time with trash like her.

Ever since he married Xi Tinglan and became an official, he had never returned back. Although there were still fields in the mansion, it was already abandoned.

As far as he was concerned, his life was absolutely not worth this.

"Oh, yes. I really would have forgotten if you didn't remind me." Mo Xiyan bared his teeth at the Prime Minister and smiled, "Since I'm leaving, in the future, I have nothing to do with you. Then, other than the old mansion, I'll also take away my mother's dowry."

"A dowry …" The Prime Minister frowned. To him, these things already belonged to him.

It was also because of this that after Xi Tinglan passed away, she didn't say a word as she attributed all of her dowry to her personal storage.

Now that several years had passed and the usual expenses were so high, were the dowry really complete?

"You look really old, my father." When Mo Xiyan said this, he increased the power that was holding onto his neck once again. He suddenly raised his arms, and actually lifted both of his legs off the ground, "Since that's the case, I don't mind helping you to reminisce about it."

Only now did the Prime Minister panic. He originally thought that her aura had changed, but he didn't expect her to be so ruthless.

"No, there's no need. I'll give you everything you want." As he said this, he glanced around and discovered that there were already people paying attention to their situation. He immediately became even more anxious.

Spending some money wasn't a big deal, but if she lost face for him, then it would truly be a big matter.

"Since you've agreed, why don't you call someone to do it?" Mo Xiyan said as she placed him back onto the ground, but her hand still continued to grip onto his neck.

"Butler, did you hear that? Quickly go and bring the deed to the house and the dowry to the eldest miss." The prime minister did not dare delay any further and turned to shout at the butler.

At this moment, the steward was hesitant. He moved close to the Prime Minister's side and asked in a low voice, "S-master, do we really have to give it to Eldest Miss?"

For the past few years, the one in charge of the palace had always been Shen Hongqin, and the Prime Minister had always listened to everything in the palace, so after a long time, everyone in the mansion actually leaned towards the Madame Prime Minister.

"Didn't you hear what I said? "Hurry up and do it!" Just as the butler finished speaking, the prime minister clearly felt that the power Mo Xiyan had placed on his neck had increased by a lot. He instantly became anxious once again.

"But, but the madam …" The butler was still hesitating.

The Prime Minister, on the other hand, was enraged. If not for Mo Xiyan holding him by the neck, he would have already gone forward to give him a kick.

"Mo Zheng, am I the one in charge of this house, or is it the Madam? Do you want me to teach you new rules?!"

It was only when he shouted that the butler realized what mistake he had made.

He fell to his knees with a thud, scared to the point of peeing his pants, "Master, this little servant was wrong, this little servant will do it now."

"Then hurry up!" The Prime Minister roared anxiously.

The steward frantically got up and ran towards the manor door.

"You'd better make them move faster." As Mo Xiyan said that, she released the prime minister, casually clapped her hands, and smiled at him: "If it was too slow, I can't guarantee what I would have done."

With that, she turned and left in large strides.

"Reverse, reverse …" "Cough, cough, cough." The Prime Minister stared at Mo Xiyan's back, he was angry to the point of wanting to curse, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly coughed.

The manservant at the side hurriedly ran to his side, supporting him while patting his back to ease his anger.

After a long time, the Prime Minister finally came back to his senses, but he lost the interest to go out today.

It was a good thing that Xiu Mu was already here today. He had only gone out to have a drink with his colleagues.

Now that he was messed up by Mo Xiyan, how could he still have the interest to go out?

Thus, he sent the manservant to his colleague and got someone to carry him back to the study room.

He did not go to see Madame Prime Minister. Ever since that incident, Shen Hongqin was only a prostitute in his eyes, and not his wife.

He didn't take it now for the sake of his own face.

When he thought about Shen Hongqin, he remembered what Mo Xiyan had said before. When he thought about how he didn't even send her food these past few days, he immediately thought of it.

So all Shen Hongqin's so-called virtuous and virtuous character was really all fake?

When she thought about Mo Xiyan, why would he loathe her so much? It seemed that it was all because of Shen Hongqin's misdirection, and she had always compared him to Mo Xiyan.

Previously, he had also thought that compared to this, Mo Xiyan was nothing, far inferior.

But thinking about it carefully, Mo Jingyuan had been taught by Shen Hongqin ever since she was young, and he even asked her for a master to teach him, but Mo Xiyan, what did she have?

Of course, he did not think that Mo Jingyuan was not outstanding. In his eyes, this daughter was still the best.

It was just that regarding Mo Xiyan, he felt that she had made too many mistakes in the past.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that everything was Shen Hongqin's fault. If Mo Xiyan had someone who had taught him properly, why would they treat him like this today?

The Prime Minister had always been conceited and conceited, how could he accept the fact that he was being threatened by Mo Xiyan?

Just like he had always done, he pushed all of his mistakes onto Shen Hongqin. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that everything was because of this evil woman.

The things that Mo Xiyan wanted now, she would just treat it as her marrying early.

When he thought of this, the Prime Minister's heart instantly felt a lot more comfortable.

However, the marriage contract was easy to get, but the dowry was hard to get.

The butler quickly came over to inform the Prime Minister that the Madame Prime Minister had said that if he wanted to go there personally, he had to go there personally.

The Prime Minister did not wish to see Shen Hongqin. At the same time, he felt once again that his authority had been threatened.

Thus, he slammed the table and said to the butler in a deep voice, "Go and tell the madam that you don't want to take out the first wife's dowry and are just waiting to be taken away."

The butler did not dare to ask any further, and following the Prime Minister's orders, he went to look for Shen Hongqin.

"Old master, do you really say that?" Shen Hongqin sat in front of the dresser, lowered his eyes and said.

"Yes, yes ma'am." The butler lowered his head and nodded.

"Hehehehe, Mo Zhen, Mo Zhen, Mo Zhen, I knew that you were such a coward, I will definitely not follow you." She laughed with a hideous and twisted expression on her face, but she only laughed and cried in the end.

"Husband, madam, you …" The butler tried to persuade her.

But Madame Prime Minister misunderstood that he was here to urge her to hand over the thing.

She exploded once again, "Since he said so, how could I not give it to him?"

As she spoke, she opened the drawer next to her and took out a bunch of keys. She then threw them at the butler, "Take them and stop bothering me!"

"Yes, yes, rest well." After picking up the key, the butler turned around and left.

Watching the butler leave, Madame Prime Minister once again burst out laughing, but the grief in her eyes could no longer dissipate.

The steward took the dowry and tried to match the items on the dowry list as quickly as possible, only to find that it was missing a thousand taels.

A thousand silver taels … this was not a small sum. The steward hurriedly ran to the study room, asking the Prime Minister to decide …
