C101 Pick One of the Two

"Yu clan, I presume you have also heard of the rumours that have been spreading around the city recently. How do you wish to resolve this matter?" Mu Taijun didn't say anything and went straight to the point.

Yu Qingye was stunned by Mu Taijun's straightforward reply and didn't know how to respond.

"Since you've been floating in the back room for so many years, you must have already known what was going on. I'm sure you can see through Jiang Chen's little trick, right? " Mu Taijun continued, "All of my words have been exposed, I won't leave any room for others to fight Tai Chi."

"Grand Monarch, this …" Thinking about his many years of relationship with Madame Jiang, Yu Qing Wan didn't know how to make such an excuse. Saying bad things about Jiang Chen Bi was not good, and pleading for her wasn't good either. For a while, they were stuck in a dilemma.

Mu Yu Ting saw the expression on Qing Ye's face and shook her head as she sighed inwardly. Mu Yu Ting and her were truly worthy of being mother and daughter. They never thought that they would have such an indecisive situation and be unable to come up with a plan when things were so straightforward.

"Yu Clan, you can choose between your daughter and the daughter of others."

Mu Yu Ting was slightly stunned by these words, and she immediately understood Mu Taijun's attitude.

The Grand Lord's words were clearly a choice made between her and Jiang Chen on a clear night like this. If Mu Taijun still had the intention to protect Jiang Chen, he wouldn't say such words at all. Now that she could ask such a question, Jiang Chen believed that Jiang Chen no longer had the status of Jiang Chen Bi.

Yu Qingye wasn't a fool. He quickly understood the meaning behind Mu Taijun's words and immediately bent his knees before bowing respectfully, "Grand Emperor, I am ignorant. I am afraid I cannot handle this matter properly. I hope the Grand Lord can take charge of this."

There was indeed an old friendship between her and Madame Jiang, but how could any close friend match up to her daughter? Furthermore, this friend of hers had recently done so many things that she felt were beneath her.

Mu Taijun nodded, then turned to look at Mu Yuting, who was sitting beside her: "Zhu Ting, right now your mother wants to punish Jiang Chen Bi, what do you plan to do? Is she still unable to part with her feelings for her friend? "

Mu Yu Ting shook her head seriously, "Grand Monarch, right now, I can only choose to deal with him the same way he does."

"Oh?" When Mu Taijun heard this, he became interested. "Didn't I hear your words earlier? Didn't I hear that you were still thinking about the relationship between Jiang Chen and Bi Chen? Why did you suddenly change your mind? "

A glimmer appeared in Mu Qiushan's eyes. "Just now, Mu Yuting said that because of Mother's feelings. Now that the only thing that I have to worry about has been abandoned, why can't my granddaughter do what she wants? "

Mu Taijun nodded, his expression easing up. She waved her hand and leaned back on the couch, massaging her temples. "Alright, I'm also tired now. You two can go back now."

After bowing and bidding farewell to Mu Taijun, Yu Qingye and Mu Yuting left the courtyard together.

"Baiting, what exactly did you and the Third Marquis experience?" Yu Qing Wan'er looked at Mu Yu Ting beside her. After a moment of hesitation, she opened her mouth and asked, "I remember that he injured you on the Emperor's birthday last time."

Hearing Yu Qing Wan's question, Mu Yu Ting could only laugh and hide the awkwardness within her heart: "Mother, it's not convenient to tell you more about these things. But don't you worry, I will definitely protect myself well and not be harmed by him! "

Yu Qing Wan saw her confident expression, and sighed in her heart, "Since you already said that, then I won't interfere anymore." However, mother only has one request, and that is to grasp your limits and not harm yourself. "

"Mother, you've said this a thousand times already." Mu Yu Ting held her arm and said intimately, "Your daughter's ears are about to go deaf."

"You, you're already so grown-up, all day long you only know how to act like a spoiled child and you don't have any proper attitude at all." Yu Qingyan reached out and tapped Mu Qiantang's nose, her eyes filled with a doting expression.

As they got along, she became more and more adept at expressing her emotions. She no longer felt like she couldn't say it out loud.

Mu Yuting snorted lightly, her tone tinged with a hint of delicacy. "Your daughter doesn't care. Anyways, in front of Mother, your daughter will forever be a child. Your daughter can always act like a spoiled child to Mother!"

Yu Qingyan smiled and exchanged a few more words with her. Suddenly, she thought of a special day that was coming up in a few days' time, so she said, "Qiantang, the Beggar Festival is approaching. I heard that there will be a lively lantern exhibition on the city's streets. Do you want to take a look?"

"Really?" In fact, Mu Yu Ting had long since lost interest in this kind of activity. She just wanted to cater to the topic of the Qing evening, so she revealed an appearance full of interest.

They were at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and there was always a grand celebration for every festival. There was no need to talk about such an important day like the Spring Festival. Just based on the customs of the past years, a night's worth of splendid lights would be lit during the Beggar's Day.

"Yeah, if you want to go, then let your brother accompany you for a few rounds." Yu Qingye nodded. The Day of Begging was an important holiday for the daughters, and there were many ladies in the city who would come out to take a walk.

"Why do you insist on accompanying me?" Mu Yu Ting glanced at the corner of her mouth, "He'll always be in charge of things. He even teases his daughter from time to time. How can he continue playing around with her to his heart's content?"

Yu Qing Wan said: "With your brother by my side, I can feel more at ease. Otherwise, no one will take care of you, you're just a girl's son, I can't stop worrying. If I get kidnapped by someone evil, who will I go to for you? "

Hijacked by criminals?

When Mu Yu Ting heard these words, she was startled. It seemed as if she had forgotten something important. Could it be that in her previous life, she had experienced something important at the Begging Festival?

Mu Yu Ting thought about it carefully for a few seconds. Her heart moved slightly, and she immediately understood why she had such an emotion. It turned out that she had forgotten about this matter!

In his previous life, the Beggar Festival was indeed very lively. At night, she also became the focus of everyone's attention, attracting the mocking gazes of others.

Jiang Chen asked her to go shopping. He had accidentally lost his relationship with her and had met with harassment from the wrong person. Jiang Chen brought a group of people to look for her. He wanted to let everyone see her disheveled appearance, making others think that she had lost her innocence.

Han Xiangyuan stood by her side, determined to believe in her, even as she was being mocked by tens of thousands of people.

It was because of this that she had stubbornly immersed herself in this absurd feeling. Now that he thought about it, this matter was riddled with loopholes, and there were many doubts that were difficult to explain.

It was likely that Jiang Chen had planned this together with Han Xiangyuan, all in order to lure a big fish like her into taking the bait!
