Chapter 2720: Beat Out Her Teeth and Swallow Her Blood2720 Beat Out Her Teeth and Swallow Her Blood Concubine Shi appeared visibly uneasy, her eyelids twitching incessantly.
“It seems that your intentions not only involve causing trouble for the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince Consort but also include undermining Madam,” Mu Jingfeng accused, pointing directly at Concubine Shi. “Despite your outwardly gentle demeanor, I’m surprised by the extent of your scheming.”
“You nearly deceived this Family Head. Your accusations against the Consort were completely misguided!” Shi Huixin’s face turned pale with fear, and her gaze shifted suddenly towards Mu Qingya. The malevolence in her eyes seemed to morph into a tangible arrow, ready to be released.
...
/Her? Was she aware that Juxian and Meixian were individuals she had placed in Magnolia Court?/
/This woman, has she been coldly observing from the sidelines all this time?/
Shi Huixin had initially seen herself as a spectator, someone who could enjoy watching conflicts within Magnolia Court with a smile.

Even if the Crown Prince Consort was akin to a celestial immortal, men might eventually grow tired of her. What was amiss with seeking a change of flavor?
However, given the Crown Prince Consort’s prideful nature, imagining her response upon discovering that the Crown Prince had indulged two maidservants was a spectacle in itself.
/Ha, perhaps His Highness would tolerate it once or twice./
Pushing too hard would certainly lead His Highness the Crown Prince to resent her. She had planned to mockingly observe, like a dragon sizing up a tiger, like a scowl confronting ten liters of wine.
Yet, unexpectedly, she found herself being outwitted by a cunning move!
Not only did His Highness deviate from the anticipated course, even the Consort was pushing back against her.
It had long been clear to her that this Madam Consort possessed a remarkable level of consideration, evident from her ability to rise to the positions of Family Head and Madam Consort despite her lack of cultivation.
/However, she hadn’t anticipated her turning so ruthless and shifting all the blame onto him./
What was truly astonishing was that Mu Jingfeng from the peak actually believed her!
Shi Huixin swiftly moved forward on her knees, crying out, “Master, I’m a victim of false accusations!”
/But could such a coincidence really exist?/ Mu Liang discovered a considerable amount of jewelry she had gifted to the two maidservants when he searched her belongings?
Only Master, that gullible person, could fall for such a deception.
“This lowly concubine is merely that—a concubine. How could I possibly hold sway in Magnolia Court?” Concubine Shi cried, her voice quivering. “My influence couldn’t possibly extend so far. Even if I had some ill intentions, executing such a scheme is utterly implausible…”
“Silence!” Mu Jingfeng’s cold gaze silenced her, and he delivered a swift kick, sending her sprawling to the side.
Mu Rouyun and Mu Rouyan were in distress. “Father, is this how you treat Mother?”

In a moment of desperation, Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun accidentally let slip the familiar terms they used privately.
In public, they maintained a respectful tone, never daring to be impertinent in their father’s presence. They consistently addressed Concubine Shi as “Concubine Shi.”
“So, this is the manner in which you’ve been raising your daughters. Lax and unbridled!” Mu Jingfeng from the peak remarked icily, “I had thought better of you, but it seems you’ve been quite adept at hiding your true nature.”
Shi Huixin’s complexion drained of color, and she struggled to offer an explanation.
/How had things escalated to this point?/
Shi Huixin was utterly baffled, unable to make sense of the situation!
Swiftly, she scrambled to her feet and clutched at Mu Jingfeng’s trousers, tears streaming as she pleaded, “Master, Master, this humble concubine acknowledges her grievous error. I beseech you, Master, to grant this concubine clemency on this occasion.”
Shi Huixin wasn’t naive. Master’s words had been unequivocal, leaving no doubt that he had decided she would shoulder the blame today!
/Whether or not Madam was truly responsible, Master had already resolved to exonerate her./
/Therefore, she had to confess. And even if she didn’t, she had to swallow the bitter pill with all her might!/
