Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse


When Yu Weiwu spoke, everyone in the room was shocked.


Jiang Yuezhen was the first to react: “Uncle, what are you talking about?”


Yu Weiwu looked at General Yu coldly, and said: “Father just said that Mother is just a woman in the house, and she doesn’t even go out often, so how can she have any enemies?”


His gaze fell on Mu Shi’s unrecognizable corpse, and his voice couldn’t help but choke up a bit: “My mother was kind, how could she forge such a grudge with others, who would make her die so miserably? It’s someone from inside the mansion!”


As soon as this sentence was uttered, the whole room was stunned.


Yu Qianjiao, who had been crying with a headache, raised her head, and looked at Yu Weiwu with eyes crying like two rotten peaches: “Big brother, what do you mean by this? Is it because the family has made Mother like this? Brother, who do you think this person is!?”


Yu Weiwu’s eyes were full of hatred, and he said gloomily: “Isn’t it obvious? In our family, who else is so inhumane and can make Mother suffer like this?”


All of them were silent for a moment, looking at each other. Everyone faintly guessed who Yu Weiwu was talking about, but no one dared to say it.


Even General Yu tightened his lips, frowned, and said nothing.


Yu Weiwu looked at General Yu and said angrily: “Father, why don’t you speak? Tell me, who in the family can be this vicious?”


General Yu slowly lowered his head. No matter how stupid he was, he naturally knew who Yu Weiwu was talking about. His hand subconsciously stroked the bridge of his nose. There were the scars that Yu Linglong had caused that had never fully healed.


Seeing that everyone was silent, Yu Weiwu stood up and said loudly: “Since Yu Linglong entered our house, our house has not had a good day! Now even Mother has died at her hands. If Father doesn’t deal with her, I’m afraid she will overturn the whole family!”


General Yu cleared his throat awkwardly, and his tone slowed down: “Brother Wu, you don’t sound unreasonable, but where is the evidence? What evidence do you have that she did it?”


Yu Weiwu said angrily: “What kind of evidence is there? She has always been rebellious and unfilial to Mother. If she is dissatisfied, she will beat her. Now Mother has died so miserably. Who would it be but her?”


General Yu also felt that what Yu Weiwu said was somewhat reasonable, but subconsciously, he still didn’t want to provoke that ruthless commoner’s daughter.


At this moment, Yuwei was pressing harder, and General Yu didn’t know what to do, and simply pushed: “Then what do you say?”


Yu Weiwu gave him a fierce look, and said viciously, “Of course it was for her to pay for her life!”


General Yu was taken aback: “What?”


Who didn’t know that Yu Linglong is so famous. Could it be so easy to rectify Yu Linglong?


Needless to say, just talk about this, who in the Yu house could beat her? Weren’t they asking for trouble if they sent someone to catch her?


In the crowd, Yu Qianfang subconsciously touched the back of her head, remembering that after Yu Linglong had shaved her hair, she had been living a strange life; Yu Qianliu remembered that she had drunk stinky water, and how bad it tasted; Yu Qianjiao remembered Yu Linglong’s brutal slaughter of the dogs, and then she clenched her bare gums, and her body shuddered.


All of them were timid, afraid to look up at Yu Weiwu, let alone speak.


Yu Weiwu stood alone with an expression of disbelief. He really did not expect that this commoner’s daughter had already made the entire Yu Mansion surrender to her, and even General Yu who had fought many battles looked terrified.


His voice couldn’t help but become angry: “Are you just going to let Mother die in vain!?”


General Yu’s head hurt. He sighed, and tried to fill his voice with the majesty of the head of the family, and said, “Brother Wu, this matter must be considered in the long term—”


Yu Weiwu’s voice suddenly rose: “What else should be considered in the long term? No, you must report to the officials!”


General Yu frowned: “It’s impossible to report to the officials. Let’s think of another way.”


Although General Yu was not smart, he also knew that his family’s ugliness should not be publicized. What’s more, Mu Shi still died at the hands of his illegitimate daughter. If this matter got out, would the Yu family still have face? Can the marriage with the Gan family still be made?


Yu Weiwu looked at General Yu with resentment in his eyes. It was this man who ignored his mother’s death and turned a deaf ear to the anger of his own children, thinking only of his own pleasure and future. It was this man who was looking for mistresses outside, who was romantic all night, leaving behind the vile spawn of Yu Linglong. Now it was because of this illegitimate daughter that he had lost his mother.


He clenched his fist unconsciously and said coldly: “If you don’t report to the officials, then I will ask my father and give my mother an explanation!”


His meaning was very obvious. He didn’t have to report to the officials, but General Yu must deal with Yu Linglong to avenge Mu Shi.


General Yu did not expect that his son would become so aggressive after he hadn’t seen him for several years. He yelled anxiously: “Revenge, revenge! We’re a family, what revenge? Can your mother survive after revenge? Or do you want to make the whole family be involved!?”


Seeing General Yu’s attitude, Yu Weiwu had no hope for his father. He turned his head away and said firmly: “I will go to her family’s house to report it, and let her family get justice for Mother!”


General Yu was furious, and angrily stood up: “You—”


Yu Weiwu didn’t look at him anymore. He flicked his sleeves and strode out.


Sure enough, Yu Weiwu went to Mu Shi’s natal home and explained her death to his grandparents. He also said that he believed Yu Linglong, a commoner’s daughter, had killed Mu Shi. The second Mu lady and Yu Weiwu came to the Yu house together.


After all, it was the Mu family, and General Yu had to order all the people in the family to go to the front hall and met Lady Mu.


Lady Mu’s body was very thin, and she had a melon seed face, and her slender eyes looked very tricky. At this moment, she was wearing a daisy blue flower and bird pattern palace satin sleeve shirt, sitting upright on the seat of honor, with a pair of eyes that lifted up from time to time and regarded the concubines in the house coldly.


As soon as Yu Qianjiao saw Second lady Yu, she immediately rushed forward, her voice full of sadness: “Second Aunt!”


Only when Lady Mu saw Yu Qianjiao did her face showed a little sadness. She raised her hands to embrace Yu Qianjiao and sighed, “Ah, my poor Jiao’er, losing your mother at such a young age…”


After hearing this, Yu Qianjiao cried more fiercely, and buried her head in Second Lady Mu’s arms, and refused to come out.


Yu Qianfang, Yu Qianliu, and the others bowed their heads obediently and stood silently in the hallway.


General Yu scratched his head, a little embarrassed. He didn’t care about Mu Shi and knew very little about the Mu family members. At this moment, she was sitting next to him, and he really didn’t know what to say.


Seeing his appearance, Second Lady Mu’s eyes returned to coldness. She patted Yu Qianjiao on the back and motioned for her to stand up, and then coldly glanced at Yu Qianfang and others, and snorted coldly: “Who is Yu Linglong? Stand up!”


Yu Qianfang, Yu Qianliu, and the others looked at each other. Yu Linglong never participated in these kinds of occasions. This Second Lady Mu did not know the situation in the Yu house. Did she think Yu Linglong would come to meet her?


Yu Weiwu frowned and said, “Second aunt, she didn’t come.”


There was an expression of disbelief on Second Lady Mu’s face. She raised her brows and wondered: “What? A mere commoner’s daughter doesn’t dare to come greet her elders?”


Yu Weiwu was speechless. Yu Linglong even dared to kill her aunt, what was Second Lady Mu to her? Did she still expect her to greet her?


Second Lady Mu angrily said: “What are the rules in your house? How do your elders teach you? Don’t you even have the basic education?”


General Yu was not very articulate. Among the remaining people, the two aunts were not qualified to speak on this occasion, and the remaining concubines were even less likely to confront her. So although she said something awkward, everyone in the room was silent.


Second Lady Mu was majestic and feeling very relaxed. She cleared her throat and said pretentiously: “Master Yu, my sister died in your house. Tell me what I should do about this!”


General Yu had no idea at the moment. He frowned and said: “My wife died strangely, and I should know what to do?”


Second Lady Mu raised her eyebrows: “What’s the matter, did my sister die for nothing?”


General Yu was stunned, and tentatively said: “Then, what do you mean…”


Second Lady Mu snorted and said forcefully: “This is the first thing. Naturally, I want to avenge her. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to look down on us in the underworld!”


Yu Weiwu immediately agreed: “Yes, I must avenge my mother!”


Second Lady Mu continued: “Jiao’er is not young anymore. Seeing that she is going to get married again, if her mother is gone, who else will be in charge of her? I have also brought her mother’s dowry list. These things will come in the future. They are all left to Jiao’er as a dowry!”


When Yu Qianjiao heard this, she cried again, supported by her second aunt.


Yu Qianfang and the others raised their eyes and looked up, and they all had the same thoughts in their hearts. It turned out that Second Lady Mu was here to take advantage of the fire and wanted to plot Mu Shi’s dowry.


General Yu was also stunned. He couldn’t do the first of these two conditions of Second Lady Mu. Yu Linglong’s beating made him not get out of bed for a month, and he was full of fear for this illegitimate daughter. How could he deal with her!?[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]


As for the second article, he didn’t care about his home. He didn’t even know what Mu Shi’s dowry contained. As for the dowry list, it has been so many years, and he didn’t know where it went. He knew Second Lady Mu’s list would prevail. Would he have to give her whatever she asked for?


General Yu’s first reaction was that he couldn’t agree, but seeing Second Lady Mu’s non-negotiable expression, and Yu Qianjiao crying so miserably, he didn’t know what to say.


Seeing General Yu’s painful expression and vaguely guessing General Yu’s thoughts, Yu Weiwu took the opportunity to continue to pressure General Yu: “Father, as long as you deal with Yu Linglong and avenge my mother, everything else is easy.”


General Yu glanced at Yu Weiwu and then thought again.


Yes, if Second Lady Mu must retrieve Mu Shi’s dowry, her eldest son can help him.


The crux of the problem now was, how can we deal with Yu Linglong?


In General Yu’s mind, it was not that he didn’t want to clean up Yu Linglong, but he also wanted to make this illegitimate daughter disappear completely, but he really didn’t have this ability.


General Yu thought for a moment, and said, “Okay, then I will hand over Yu Linglong to the Mu family.”


He just needed to say yes, and leave the rest to Yu Weiwu and the others. If they want to be beaten, let them suffer. He didn’t care about these things.


Seeing that General Yu agreed, both Yu Weiwu and Second Lady Mu looked satisfied. Yu Weiwu thought for a while and said to Second Lady Mu: “Second aunt, that woman is very savage. If you want her to leave, you must send people to tie her up first, and then we will torture her slowly, how about it?”


Everyone in the Yu house knew how powerful Yu Linglong was. If Yu Weiwu used the people in the Yu house, no one would dare to go and catch Yu Linglong.


Second Lady Mu had never seen Yu Linglong, and naturally she did not attach importance to this illegitimate daughter, so she agreed, “Okay, I will send someone over tomorrow!”



In the middle of the night, the lights of Pinlan Garden had already been turned off, and the people fell asleep.


In the darkness, two figures came out sneakily. After looking around, they knocked on the door gently.


The gatekeeper rubbed her eyes, walked out yawning, and asked, “Who is it?”


A thin voice rang: “It’s me.”


The woman thought the voice sounded familiar, and she opened the door. It didn’t matter if she saw it, she was shocked: “Auntie, why are you here!”


The woman with an azure cloak outside the door with a nervous look turned out to be Concubine Mei!


Concubine Mei came in with a maid, and said, “Go and ask your young lady to get up, and say that I have something important to discuss with her.”


The woman hesitated for a moment: “Auntie, you know our young lady’s temper…”


When Yu Linglong is sleeping, who dared to wake her up? Do you not want your head anymore?


Concubine Mei glanced at the maid behind her, and the maid immediately stuffed a silver ingot into her hand: “Our auntie really has something important to say, so please take care of it.”


Seeing that the woman was still a little hesitant, Concubine Mei added another sentence: “Just talking about this matter has a lot to do with your young lady.”


The woman went in and told her, and it took a long time before she came back: “The Lady is up, please come in.”


Concubine Mei was relieved and hurriedly walked inside.


In the room, Yu Linglong was wearing a moon-white coat and looked very impatient.


She looked at Concubine Mei coldly. Her eyes finally fell on her slightly protruding abdomen, and her eyebrows frowned.


“Come on, what’s the matter?”


Concubine Mei lifted the cloak gently, revealing a round and charming face, a pair of watery apricot eyes that looked at Yu Linglong without blinking, and said in a low voice, “Fourth Lady, I am here to make a deal with you.”


Yu Linglong raised her eyebrows: “Oh? Tell me about it.”


She had always known that Concubine Mei’s mind had always been great, and she could also vaguely guess Concubine Mei’s intentions. Now Lady Yu was gone, and Mu Shi was gone. The position of the mistress in the Yu house was empty, and COncubine Mei must want to use this rare opportunity to win a place for herself in the Yu house.


However, she didn’t understand why Concubine Mei wanted her to help.


Concubine Mei stared at Yu Linglong’s delicate and extraordinary face and said softly: “Fourth Lady, you have a good life, you have a strong temper, and you can get everything you want. Unlike me, who is just an ordinary daughter. All I want is to be able to live peacefully in the mansion—”


Yu Linglong coldly interrupted her: “What do you want?”


She was not interested in watching any bitter drama and was not in the mood to listen to Concubine Mei’s nonsense here in the middle of the night. She just wanted to know what conditions Concubine Mei wanted to exchange for the power of the Yu house.


Concubine Mei paused, and said, “The Second Lady of the Mu house is here today, and the master has promised her to hand you over to the Mu house and let them handle it. Tomorrow, Second Lady Mu will take someone to arrest you. “


Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong didn’t show a timid expression. On the contrary, she smiled slightly, as if she thought it was very absurd. “Why did they name me?”


Concubine Mei stared at Yu Linglong: “Didn’t you kill the Lady?”


Seeing Yu Linglong’s sharp gaze, Concubine Mei couldn’t help but shrink a little, her voice lowered: “I don’t mean anything, but…”


Yu Linglong said in a low voice, “So what if it’s me? Mu Shi’s death will only benefit you, so there is no harm, right?


Concubine Mei was said what was on her mind, and her face couldn’t help but be embarrassed. She changed the subject: “Fourth Lady, I’m here to inform you. You’d better be prepared.”


Yu Linglong didn’t appreciate her overly obvious hint: “You came to inform me, shouldn’t there be a reason why? Come on, what do you want?”


Knowing that nothing could escape Yu Linglong’s eyes, Concubine Mei simply said: “Fourth Lady, I want to be in charge of the Yu house.”


Yu Linglong was not surprised by her ambition. This woman can follow General Yu from northern Xinjiang to the capital, which proved that she was not a person who was comfortable with the status quo. What’s more, Concubine Mei was young and her looks were not lost. For others, it was natural that they were unwilling to succumb to others.


Seeing Yu Linglong lower her head silently, Concubine Mei said in a hurry: “You have also seen the situation in the mansion. The master doesn’t care about anything, the other young ladies are still young, and Concubine Dong is not the sharpest tool in the shed. I am the best candidate…”


Yu Linglong suddenly said, “What about Jiang Yuezhen?”


Concubine Mei suddenly stopped speaking. Yes, although Jiang Yuezhen had only been in the house for a short time, she was a well-known new wife in the Yu family, and she was the best housekeeper. She was a little aunt, how can she compete with the others?


Yu Linglong said lightly, “Jiang Yuezhen is a smart person. Don’t underestimate her.”


Concubine Mei gritted her teeth and said: “Although she is a new wife, she has no strength in the house. Uncle doesn’t see her too much…”


In front of Mu Shi’s coffin today, everyone saw Yu Weiwu’s attitude towards Jiang Yuezhen. It was obvious that the relationship between this young couple was not good.


Yu Linglong smiled sarcastically, “In any case, she is better than you.”


Concubine Mei could not help blushing. Of course, she knew this. Although Lady Yu and Mu Shi were gone, it was not easy for her to take the opportunity to gain the power of a housekeeper, even if General Yu was willing to listen to her. But Yu Weiwu, Yu Qianjiao, and the others would definitely not agree. Now that Jiang Yuezhen was standing in front of her as a new wife, she naturally had to fall behind.


That was why she wanted to win over Yu Linglong and get Yu Linglong’s help. She knew that in this mansion, as long as she could get Yu Linglong’s great help, her chances of gaining the power of the housekeeper would greatly increase.


But she was a concubine, who had neither power nor status. Why should Yu Linglong help her?


Yu Linglong looked at Concubine Mei’s disappointed face and suddenly smiled.


Her petal-like lips glowed with the light of saliva in the candlelight, and she gently spits out a word that made Concubine Mei’s heart beat faster.


“I can help you.”


Concubine Mei suddenly raised her head and looked at Yu Linglong in surprise: “Fourth Lady, are you really willing to help me?”


Yu Linglong looked down and blew her tea, and said faintly: “Yes. But I have one condition.”


Concubine Mei’s heart fell suddenly. She carefully looked at Yu Linglong’s face and asked, “Then…what is it?”


Yu Linglong stretched out three watery fingers and said, “After you take care of the house, I want 30% of the Yu family’s annual income.”


It turned out to be money. Concubine Mei was greatly relieved, and promised: “Okay, I promise you!”


Watching Concubine Mei leave with joy, Yu Linglong smiled coldly.


Of course, she didn’t just do it for the 30% of the silver. If it was only for this little silver, it was not worth it at all.


The reason she wanted to help Concubine Mei was because she needed a puppet.


Now that she had decided to intervene in the Yu Mansion, she must control the power of the Yu Mansion, but her identity did not allow it, and she herself had no interest in managing the trivial matters of the Yu Mansion. In this situation, fostering a puppet was the best choice.


Of course, she could also win over Jiang Yuezhen, but she knew that Jiang Yuezhen was not like Concubine Mei, who had the ambition to get the power of the Yu house, so naturally she will not be as obedient as Concubine Mei. And Jiang Yuezhen had her own natal power, unlike Concubine Mei who was helpless and alone. Therefore, if she promoted Concubine Mei to the position, she would get more benefits with the least effort, and she had the confidence to make Concubine Mei obey her.


After drinking all the remaining tea in the cup, Yu Linglong got up and walked towards the inner room.


Concubine Mei was not in a hurry in advance. The question now was how to deal with the guys who come to find fault tomorrow.


In the darkness, the corners of her mouth curled up with a nice arc, with a bit of coldness and a bit of sarcasm.
