Chapter 384 The Couple of Bad Guys Suffered Together

From his words, Mo Xuemin realized that Sima Lingyun was close to a breaking point and that she was going to fall on hard time. At the thought, Mo Xuemin was eager to tear him off with anger, but could not help becoming flurried inwardly.

Sima Lingyun! What a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He did have the impertinence to firm up the adultery between him and Mo Xuemin before the marriage. Mo Xuemin once saw him a lot for the sake of dealing with Mo Xuetong. Although the two did not touch the bottom line, they did always hug, touch and kiss each other. Even once they were encountered by Yun Yiqiu once. If Sima Lingyun spoke of it, it would be really terrible.

Mo Xuemin stood up fiercely, no longer pretending to be weak, and spoke with a stern look. “Your Excellency, you are always a n.o.ble gentleman and enjoy a good reputation among people. How can you say that?”

She was threatening Sima Lingyun with his reputation. If it was in the past, Sima Lingyun would never do the things that brought harm both to the enemy and himself. But nowadays, he did not have any good reputation. And thinking about being cheated, he could not bear it any longer.

Whenever he thought that the baby in Mo Xuemin’s belly would take up his manor, Sima Lingyun was so desperate to tear Mo Xuemin off.

Burnt with anger, the d.u.c.h.ess found that Mo Xuemin finally showed a hint of fear, so she immediately applauded and echoed her son’s idea. The d.u.c.h.ess looked at Mo Xuemin and said coldly. “Yun’er, you don’t have any worry. A woman who misbehaves before marriage can only be accepted as a concubine.”

“You are talking nonsense!” Mo Xuemin screamed, jerked her head, and glared at the d.u.c.h.ess. Mo Xuemin’s face turned livid, as if she were going to swallow the d.u.c.h.ess.

“Sir w.a.n.g, Mo Xuemin had misbehavior before marriage and had secret communications with different men. Besides, she always seduced me privately, and even ran to my manor to see me. The maidservants and doorkeepers in my manor can testify.” Sima Lingyun had been driven mad with fury. Now, he had only one purpose that he would not allow Mo Xuetong, the s.l.u.t, to take up the position of his wife.

And he would not allow the b.a.s.t.a.r.d in her belly to take up the status of his legitimate eldest son. Even if at the cost of ruining his reputation, he would not let go of the s.l.u.t. What was worse was that, after marrying the vicious b.i.t.c.h, he, Sima Lingyun, had no reputation at all. It was so ridiculous that he used to believe that Mo Xuemin was a kind and gentle girl and think that she would frame up her younger sister merely in order to help him.

Now, judging about the things in the past, if Mo Xuemin was really a kind and gentle girl, how could she do those evil things? Sima Lingyun thought he was really blinded by the venomous woman so that he finally fell to such a situation.

Sima Lingyun blamed all the vicious things on Mo Xuemin, but he never thought that he was not clean, either. In fact, he was one of the masterminds, colluding with Mo Xuemin. The two were both in an unfavorable situation, and the two sc.u.mbags were conducting a dogfight for the fear of getting the worst.

Sima Lingyun’s words were so shocking that everyone in the hall had different expressions.

Mo Xuemin even had a private relations.h.i.+p with different men, and even ran to Duke Zhenguo’s manor at midnight?

Then, there was an explosion of noise in the hall.

Hearing Mo Xuemin had conducted such shameful deeds, Mo Huawen looked stern and did not say a word while sitting beside. Mo Xuetong took a glance at Xu Yan and found Xu Yan pulled Mo Huawen’s sleeve quietly to comfort him. No matter how awful Mo Xuemin was, she was still his daughter.

“When did she meet you privately?” Grand Secretariat w.a.n.g sat down again and asked.

“On the night that the fire broke out in the Mo Manor, she once sneaked into the manor,” When speaking of it, Sima Lingyun paused, took a glance at the gloomy Mo Huawen and the silent beautiful woman sitting beside him, and continued his words ruthlessly, “the b.i.t.c.h is not only loose in moral, but also does cruel things to her younger sister. Because she envied her younger sister was the daughter of the legitimate wife, Mo Xuemin tried every means to ruin Third Young Miss Mo’s reputation again and again. She even ordered people to set fire on the Mo Manor that night, because she knew that Third Young Miss Mo was kneeling in the ancestral hall for punishment. In other words, the fire was set on purpose. That night, she came into my manor to meet me secretly and asked to save Third Young Miss Mo deliberately.”

“As long as I could hold the disheveled Third Young Miss Mo out of the fire, Mo Xuemin said she could have a way to make Third Young Miss Mo as one of my concubines.” Fearing that Mo Huawen and Mo Xuetong would help Mo Xuemin, Sima Lingyun went ahead regardless and spoke out what had happened that day.

The audience burst into an uproar.

Was Mo Xuemin the lascivious and vicious woman as Sima Lingyun said, even more vicious than her brutal Auntie Fang?

Grand Secretariat w.a.n.g immediately sent people to ask the doorkeepers and some other people in Duke Zhenguo’s manor. Although it had been carried out secretly, there were still some people knowing about it. After all, it was impossible that a sedan could be carried into the manor without any sound.

Mo Huawen’s face turned livid with hatred. Although he had known that Mo Xuemin was not so kind, he had not expected that she did harm to Tong’er again and again. But for the luck on Tong’er, she would have been sent into the Duke Zhenguo’s manor, or lost her life. Mo Huawen clenched the chair handle on one side and almost crushed it.

If he had ever considered giving a hand to Mo Xuemin for the sake of saving Mo Manor’s fame, now he totally abandoned that idea. If he still wanted to help Mo Xuemin, how was he able to see Tong’er upright, and how was he able to see Luo Xia after death? Mo Huawen felt he failed Luo Xia, because he was almost unable to protect their only daughter.

He turned to look at Mo Xuetong, and his lips quivered, unable to say a word. At that moment, he felt nothing but guilty. He thought he was not fit to be a husband and a father, because he had not found there were two poisonous snakes hiding around him for such a long time.

“Father, it’s all over.” Mo Xuetong comforted him, as she pulled his other sleeve, raised her eyes filled with grieved tears, and shook it gently.

What a well-behaved daughter! How could he have the heart to let those two vicious women bully her for years?

That past which had been forgotten quietly now became blades of swords to stab into his heart and made him too aching to breathe…

The past was vivid in his mind: how he obeyed Auntie Fang’s words to leave Tong’er in the Cloud City, and how he lent his ears to Mo Xuemin and Auntie Fang’s slanders that Tong’er was so disobedient that had done so many deeds of impiety. Mo Huawen wanted to stand up and leave, but did not know where to go.

He stretched out his hand, pointed at Mo Xuemin, and said in a trembling voice, “You, why did you harm your sister? Even if you were the daughter of a concubine, I never treated you as you were. Why were you so vicious?”

Seeing that Grand Secretariat w.a.n.g had sent someone to investigate and that Sima Lingyun denounced her in such a convincing way, Mo Xuemin knew that the servants in the Duke Zhenguo’s manor would not help her without a doubt. And judging from the obvious disgust on her father’s face and the sneer and contempt on the people’s faces in the hall, she also knew that her day had gone and no one would help her. A hint of crazy red flashed in her eyes.

“You are good to me. But father, I am just a daughter of a concubine just as you said. No matter how I try, I am just a daughter of a concubine. I want to be a legitimate daughter and stand in front of people with dignity. I don’t want to be mocked. Where is Mo Xuetong better than me? She just owns the ident.i.ty of a legitimate daughter, so she can marry into the royal family and becomes a king’s consort. Why? Father, if you really treated us well, you should have made me as a legitimate daughter before.”

“From an early age, everyone said that she was a legitimate daughter and I was not. I tried my best to do everything well with the only hope to attract your attention, so that you could see my advantages and talents. In the past, Luo Xia was still alive, so Auntie Fang could not be your legitimate wife. Then, Luo Xia was dead. But why didn’t you make Auntie Fang as your legitimate wife? Father, you said you were good to me. But why could you not even fulfill my little wish? As long as Auntie Fang became your legitimate wife, I would become your legitimate daughter and I would be filial to you, too. Why did you always fail us?”

Mo Xuemin pointed at Mo Huawen and screamed crazily.

“Why, why am I just an illegitimate daughter? I deserve better!”

Based on her talents and temperament, why was she unable to become a legitimate daughter? But why was Mo Xuetong able to? At this moment, Mo Xuemin was on the verge of going mad. Almost, almost, she could do it. She had come very close to her dream. But now, why did it happen? Mo Xuemin did not reconcile herself to the fact. How could she reconcile to it?

Mo Xuemin turned to Sima Lingyun and said crazily. “And you, Sima Lingyun, you dreamed to get both Mo Xuetong, that b.i.t.c.h, and the support of Fu General Manor behind her. Therefore, you wanted to ruin her reputation again and again, so that she would have no way but to marry you. But pity that it was your daydream. That b.i.t.c.h finally became King Xuan’s Consort. It was beyond your fond dream.”

Looking at her crazy look, Sima Lingyun became more disgusted and shouted, “Vicious woman, no matter what you say now, you cannot change anything. Until now, you still refuse to admit your viciousness and try to drag others into the water!”

“Drag you into the water? Sima Lingyun, you really think too much of yourself! Do you need dragging? You are already corrupt into the heart and soul. In the plum blossom forest, you pulled that b.i.t.c.h deliberately so as to frame up a scene where you two had an affair, but out of your expectation, the one you pulled was Mo Xueqiong. And for the burning fire, you wanted to get the good fame that a hero saved a beauty and could gain both fame and beauty. Besides, the things in the palace were all done by you. Everything was done by you. Sima Lingyun, the Duke Zhenguo’s manor has been rotten completely from inside.”

Mo Xuemin was not afraid of anything now and screamed. She pushed away the two maidservants who were supporting her and threw herself to Sima Lingyun with hatred.

If it weren’t for this cheap man, she would still be a virgin and could go out of the manor to meet You Yuecheng secretly and could get the man’s support by her body. But now, she was done and had nothing but an illegitimate child in her belly. All were given by Sima Lingyun. Since he wanted her to die, she would not let him live a comfortable life, either.

Sima Lingyun did not expect that Mo Xuemin would pounce on him, so before he had time to avoid her, his face had been scratched heavily by Mo Xuemin. He screamed with pains. The d.u.c.h.ess yelled and ran to help him. But Mo Xuemin kicked her away with inexplicable strength and still rushed to Sima Lingyun rashly.

Because in the Mo Manor, Sima Lingyun knew when to stop and control himself, and then, he just dodged to avoid Mo Xuemin. But unexpectedly, the sharp hands scratched towards him again. And he even could not close his eyes. With a scream, he kicked Mo Xuemin off with great pains, fell to the ground with his eyes covered, and shouted wildly, “My eyes, my eyes.”

Blood continued to flow out of his covered eyes and stained the ground.

Mo Xuemin was kicked and hit the corner of the column. She covered her belly and burst into wild laughter. Blood spread out under her skirt. She took no notice of it but just laughed wildly and desperately at Sima Lingyun’s pitiful sight like a ferocious ghost. Other people in the hall stepped back subconsciously.

The d.u.c.h.ess stood up, ran to Sima Lingyun, and shouted anxiously, “Yun’er, Yun’er.”

However, Sima Lingyun rolled on the ground in pain, and she couldn’t get close to him but just kept yelling on the side.

At this time, the person sent by Grand Secretariat w.a.n.g came back and confirmed Sima Lingyun’s words. But the things had developed into such a situation, totally like a farce, so Grand Secretariat w.a.n.g said nothing but made obeisance to Mo Huawen and left, since he had to report the things to the Emperor.

“Father, lead the eldest sister into the room and ask the doctor to check her.” Mo Xuetong stood up and glanced at Mo Xuemin. The blood flew fast and fiercely. Obviously, the child in Mo Xuemin’s belly could not be kept. Mo Xuetong looked around the mess in the hall, and a chill took on the corner of her mouth with slight bloodthirsty satisfaction. She did not feel any sad for Mo Xuemin at all.

That Mo Xuemin and Sima Lingyun ended up like this was due to what they had done in the last life, and they owed Mo Xuetong. It was also due to the trouble they brought to themselves this life!
