Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2008 - 2016: Spending the Night in the Suburb (Part 2)

Dong Qi shamelessly said, "What? The Fragrance of Temptation from Tongzhou Mansion was bought out yesterday? Who did it? It’s truly nonsense. Now, Chong Wen will definitely be more certain that we deliberately framed him."

"Who else could it be? It must be the madams of the various brothels in Tongzhou Mansion, using means to compete for customers. This kind of thing has happened more than once or twice in Tongzhou Mansion. If Young Master Mu hasn’t seen such things, no wonder he finds it surprising." Prince Consort Dong Guanghui argued disingenuously, revealing his hypocritical nature.

"So that’s how it is, truly shocking!" Princess Zhao Qing echoed her husband, fervently condemning those women who seduced men with disgraceful means, pretending that their whole family was genuinely wronged.

Not long after, Dong Qi’s little boy Mao Tai was brought in. As soon as Mao Tai came in, he knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, begging for mercy.

"Your Highness the Eldest Princess, have mercy, Young Master, mercy, please. It was the servant’s greed for money for a moment, receiving Silver from Young Master’s Auntie Qiu, wanting to accomplish the good deed between Auntie Qiu and Young Master, and hence dared to put that fragrance into Young Master’s incense burner. Unexpectedly, Young Master initially said it was good for Auntie Qiu to go to his Study Room for lunch, but he changed his mind midway and asked the servant to invite Young Master Mu. The servant feared Young Master’s punishment, so dared not reveal the truth. Therefore, I took the chance when Young Master was drunk and Young Master Mu left to run to the Back Garden and poured all the fragrance Auntie Qiu gave into the lake... The servant knows the mistake, begging Young Master to forgive this once on account of serving Young Master since childhood..."

Mao Tai said while crawling to Dong Qi’s feet, continually kowtowing.

Dong Qi erupted in anger, kicking Mao Tai to the side, scolding, "Unworthy thing, I trust you so much, and yet you’ve done such filthy, disgraceful things, causing my good brother to doubt me and my Younger Sister to lose her Virtue. If I forgive you, heaven won’t forgive me."

Then, shouting loudly, "Housekeeper, take Mao Tai away, beat him with fifty sticks, then call a human trafficker over and sell their whole family. Auntie Qiu need not stay, sell her too."

"Young Master, mercy, I dare not again, Young Master, mercy..."

Mao Tai was dragged away, Dong Qi guiltily looked at me and said, "Chong Wen, the truth has been revealed, I hope you can forget past grievances, aren’t we still good brothers, right?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

He completely pushed off responsibility, found scapegoats, and covered up everything without a flaw. Seeing this family’s superb performance, I wanted to applaud them. Pity, this matter is closely related to me and nearly ruined my Reputation. I can’t applaud them nor forgive these shameless lowlifes.

I sneered lightly and said, "We both know the real truth in our hearts, no need to stay brothers, just tell me how you plan to compensate me for your ’misunderstanding’ of me."

The Dong family present were stunned by my words, seemingly not expecting me to be so impolite. However, that’s the kind of Temperament I have. I can’t be bothered to deal with these vile and obscene people, so I got straight to the point.

Princess Zhao Qing turned cold-faced, saying, "What does Young Master Mu mean? We were also deceived by this dog slave, not intentionally making things difficult for you. Moreover, you suffered no loss from the event the other day. Speaking of loss, my Daughter suffered more, and we haven’t said anything about it, so why do you have to press the matter?"

Mentioning the word "loss," Dong Wan’er’s face flushed red as she bit her lip and looked at me resentfully, starting to use a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.

I had no mood to watch her pitiful performance, nor do I have the temperament to pity ’fragrance’ or ’jade.’ Therefore, I merely glanced at her before withdrawing my gaze, saying coldly, "This time, my innocence was confirmed all thanks to Third Miss’s righteous assistance. Therefore, I will take Third Miss and her Younger Brother to leave the Dong Mansion. Prince Consort Dong should invite clan members to witness, from now on Third Miss and her Younger Brother will have no association with the Dong family, and you must not interfere with the siblings’ lives."
