2479: Selfish Calculations Abound

Selfish Calculations Abound

*Bam!*2

Concubine Shi looked up at her daughter who had charged inside. She furrowed her brows and chided, "Yun'er, you are getting more and more ill-mannered."

"Mom, you clearly know that woman is a fake, so why did you bring her back? I get disgusted just seeing her. Her face is ugly and dark, and she's still pretending to be young when she's so old. I'm not going to call this kind of small-minded bumpkin peasant, Sister!" Mu Rouyun ranted angrily.

"You child." Shi Huixin swept her an exasperated look. She beckoned to her. "Sit next to Mom."

"Mom." Mu Rouyun squeezed next to her and lay in Shi Huixin's embrace. She pursed her lips.

Shi Huixin poked her daughter's forehead affectionately. "Yun'er, do you really think Mom is dumb."

"Since we know that lass will come back one day, why don't we just openly bring her back? Finding a dumb one makes it easier to control."

Mu Rouyun looked at Concubine Shi in surprise. "Mom means that? Is the real Qiao Mu much more formidable than this fake?"

"Far more than just more formidable. This idiot from a poor family simply can't compare." Shi Huixin harrumphed. "Finding someone unpresentable that we can control in the palm of our hands is far better than that lass truly coming back and making a fuss."

"But Madam was the first to shoot down this matter. A fake will always be a fake. Someone will expose her someday."

"Humph." Shi Huixin pursed her lips. "That woman always acts as a good person in front of the eldest young master. Doesn't she get tired? I don't believe that she doesn't have any selfish intentions at all."

"So what if she gets exposed? By that time, Qiao Mu's reputation will have been ruined." Shi Huixin waved her hand without caring.

There were many things that she did not tell her daughter. After all, her daughter had a loose tongue.

When she learned of Qiao Mu's identity as the crown prince consort, she actually was extremely shocked.

She absolutely did not imagine that this daughter of the Mu Clan, who grew up on Sikong Planet, would serendipitously marry the present crown prince of the Divine Province.

He was not the crown prince of a tiny Mo Kingdom, but His Highness the Crown Prince of their august Divine Province.

But so what?

The emperor was definitely not going to acknowledge this marriage.

At that time, the crown prince would definitely be marrying someone else.

As for her…

Qiao Mu!

Disgust and chilliness churned in Concubine Shi's eyes. She should lie in the dirt and allow anyone to tread upon her.

On the other hand, her daughter should be charming and pampered.

Her daughter should obtain all of the Mu Estate's glory.

A bastard from the outside simply did not need to exist in this world!

…

The Qin Estate.

The opposite bank of the Xiangxin Lake.

Qin Xuan removed his cloak as he ascended Panyu Pavilion. He handed it to the boy servant following him.

"My younger brother, what are you busy with? I haven't seen you around recently."

Second Young Sir Qin looked up at this grinning eldest brother of his. He asked apathetically, "Why has Eldest Brother come?"

"Hm, just bored." Eldest Young Sir Qin sat down in front of him with all smiles. He didn't stand on courtesy and directly poured himself a cup of steaming tea from the teapot.

"I heard that you arranged for Fifth Brother to go to the Weixi Corridor to divert his mind?"

"Hm? Yeah." Eldest Young Sir Qin laughed. He nodded and said, "I saw that he's been holed up at home with nothing to do, so I had him go out and travel."

"Second Young Sir, Second Young Sir." A man in yellow clothes quickly and vigorously ascended the pavilion.
