NovelEnglishMy Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!
Chapter 2658: You Do As You See Fit2658 You Do As You See Fit The old man twitched his mouth.
Okay! This move of his granddaughter’s was freakin’ harsh!
The old man’s eyelid jerked as he took that long dowry inventory. He became more speechless the further he skimmed down the list.
...
Not mentioning the fields and shops, just the auditing that the little lady wanted of the annual profits and account books for Butterfly Pavilion, Listless Pavilion, and Changle Boulevard—these three popular shops on Changle Boulevard—would cause an uproar.
The old man could already foresee his eldest son immediately bolting up…
He silently looked toward the little lady.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe little lady deadpanned with her stoic face, “If the patriarch cannot communicate this to Mu Jingfeng, I will have no other choice but to pull Hubby along to beseech the emperor. After all, it truly is not too acceptable for me to not have seen a single cent from all these properties.”
The old man twitched his mouth again. This young granddaughter was clearly trying peaceful means before resorting to force, on top of threatening him!
If his daughter-in-law’s dowry really was brought to the emperor’s attention, that would be so terribly shameful!
“In any case, this is what it is.” The little fellow said nonchalantly, “I’m not in a rush either. Just have the account books and profit statements prepared within five days. As for how to tell Mu Jingfeng, you do as you see fit.”
The old man was speechless. He muttered inwardly, sorting through all these statements from the past years in five days wasn’t being in a rush?
Nevertheless, he wasn’t dumb. He naturally knew that there was a complicated relationship between the father and daughter. The little fellow was doing this to give Jingfeng a difficult time.
The eldest branch had been living quite luxurious these past years. If it had to cough up so many things at once…
The Mu Clan’s old man himself was afraid to imagine it!
The little fellow left behind this mess, her mood quite excellent.
She had already said what she needed to say. As for whether they were going to do it, that was their problem.
It was one thing if they behaved well and did it. It was another thing if they didn’t obediently do as they were told. In any case, she had follow-up moves waiting for them.

On the other end, in the imperial palace, in the Qianyuan Audience Hall.
The atmosphere was so oppressive that you could practically hear a pin drop.
Ever since the crown prince got summoned to the hall, the atmosphere had gradually turned heavy and terrifying.
The officials silently lowered their heads like quails. They felt that the air flow in the space was getting more and more stifling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter coming to the hall, he merely gazed coldly at everyone present. He did not open his mouth to say anything.
This unfathomable pressure made everyone shut their mouths.
This long period of silence caused everyone’s hearts to be suspended. They were filled with boundless nervousness.
“Cough.”
Someone finally couldn’t stand it anymore and coughed. A man in white robes who was standing in the middle of Qianyuan Audience Hall strode forward. He cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, even if talking about punishment, our Holy Daughter has already had her fair share of suffering being locked up in the dungeon! She has received her lesson, so could Your Majesty…”
“Nie Yaoguang led a group of shrine believers to slander and vilify the crown prince consort in public. It is a serious crime to defy one’s superiors and start a rebellion. What do you take the Divine Province for to release such a person after five to six days? How could we allow you to be so wanton?” Crown Prince Mo finally spoke. The first thing he did was to mercilessly denounce the person. His gaze was so cold it felt like ice bits were going to fall.
That white-robed priest turned around and saluted him. “Your Highness the Crown Prince, Holy Daughter Yaoguang…”
Mo Lian didn’t keep listening and directly waved his hand. He declared coldly, “We do not agree to releasing her!”
“Crown Prince, you!”
“Insolence” Eunuch Hu chastised.
