Chapter 573: A Slap Toward Madam Zhangs Face
Updted on BX0VEL.cmTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
I have to mention that Liu Fuyun was a literary man, and despite his dissatisfaction with his wives over the years, he never laid a finger on them.
His discipline for his son was very strict, and he was quite harsh with Liu Shimei as well. However, when it came to his always gentle and affectionate wife, Madam Zhang, he never acted rough. Even in the previous incident at the Grand Court, where he suffered 30 strokes because of the foolish mother and daughter pair, he did nothing more than scold them a few times.
This was the first time he resorted to physical violence!
Who is responsible for all these troubles? Liu Fuyun said coldly, If it werent for your schemes against Shimei, she would have become the Crown Princess by now! Reluctantly, I accepted Yaner, but thats as far as I can go! Yet you continue to cause me trouble! Now
His gaze turned into ice arrows, shooting towards the entire Zhang family, as he continued, I painstakingly tried to help your family, promoting your elder brother! But is this how your nephew repays me? Your brother and sister-in-law cant even raise a son properly, and they set their sights on my daughter. Their audacity knows no bounds!
From his words, it was evident that he had made up his mind.
He wouldnt trouble Liu Shimei!
Madam Zhangs heart sank.
The phrase reluctantly accepted Yaner was crucial!
It was easy to imagine that in Liu Fuyuns eyes, no matter how close Liu Yaner was to him, she could never match the value of Liu Shimei!
And now, because of her familys troubles, not only was she ruining the future of her daughter, who was about to rise to prominence, but she herself was going to be rejected?
No!
She couldnt accept such a fate!
What did Liu Fuyun say just now? He wanted Liu Shimei to find a solution for Yaner, to ensure that the Crown Princess Consorts position continued?
But
This is a crime against the Emperor!
All the servants who know about this matter should be dealt with. As for all of you Liu Fuyun looked at the Zhang family of four, then at his own wife, Liu Anhe, and Liu Shimei. He said, This matter must be kept a secret!
Finally, he turned to Liu Shimei and said, Shimei, speak for yourself. What benefits do you want before youre willing to help?
Liu Shimei looked somewhat troubled.
Nowadays, she really didnt know what benefits she could ask for anymore. Last time, she agreed to help Liu Yaner compete for the position of Crown Princess because even if she didnt agree, there was still a high chance of Liu Yaner being selected.
But the information obtained after Liu Fuyun investigated was barely satisfactory.
She felt like she had been shortchanged!
Now, another round of benefits?
Liu Shimei thought for a long time, her gaze sweeping over everyone present, each of them looking miserable. It made her feel quite satisfied.
In the end, her gaze settled on Madam Zhang, and she said, Fine, I dont even know what I want anymore. The only thing I can think of isI dont want to see Madam Zhang in the Grand Chancellors Residence ever again!
Liu Shimei! Mrs. Zhang screamed, Youre so ruthless! Do you want me to die?
Liu Shimei sneered and said, Whos the ruthless one here? If you hadnt done the first step, how could I have taken the fifteenth step?
She turned to look at Liu Fuyun and said, Father, having a wife like her in the family is truly unfortunate! I suggest sending her to the Grand Chancellors Temple to devoutly serve that compassionate grandmother
The words compassionate grandmother were emphasized heavily!
Mind you, that grandmother had been persecuted by Madam Zhang countless times!
Madam Zhang was cunning; once she ascended to her position, she found a way to send her malicious mother-in-law to the Grand Chancellors Temple, where she hadnt returned from for many years. So, Liu Shimei thought, why not send Madam Zhang there too and let her clash with the old lady?
A great show: dogs biting each other, both ending up with a mouthful of fur!
She smiled faintly and said, Furthermore, it can help Madam Zhang settle her mind a bit and pray for blessings for the Liu family.. At the same time, we wont tarnish the reputation of the Grand Chancellors Residence! Father, what do you think?
