Chapter 3631: 4.1231 The Tide Has Turned

"Crown Princess, Master suddenly went mad and actually laid such a vicious hand on Madam! Is there something wrong with his mind?"

Mu Jingfeng noticed the little Crown Princess staring at him with icy eyes and couldn't help but shrink his neck, trembling all over. Then he yelled sharply, "You old woman, watch your words!! Who are you saying has something wrong with their mind, who??"

"Hold him down!" The little Crown Princess ordered coldly, and immediately two youths rushed forward, firmly grabbing Mu Jingfeng's shoulders and pressing him to the ground.

"Search both the front and back courtyards! Don't miss a single inch of this place," Qiao Mu said coldly.

"You rebellious daughter, rebellious daughter!! What are you doing, what are you doing??" Mu Jingfeng shrieked, pounding the ground with all his might, roaring furiously, "How dare you treat your own biological father like this? Aren't you afraid of suffering divine retribution??"

"Divine retribution? Let it come!! See if it dares to!" Qiao Mu coldly interrupted Mu Jingfeng, saying impatiently, "Shut your mouth!"

"The Crown Princess told you to shut up. Shut up!" Tong suddenly gripped Mu Jingfeng's neck, instantly silencing him.

Mu Jingfeng had not expected that just minutes ago, he was still gripping Mu Qingya's neck, asserting his authority, but now it was his turn.

His eyes, filled with immense resentment, stared fixedly at Qiao Mu, as if just by staring at her, he could tear her into a million pieces.

"Get a doctor to see to the Mu family head. Send him to a room; don't let him out to scare people if there's nothing wrong," Qiao Mu ordered faintly.

"Qiao Mu, you rebellious daughter, you will be struck down by heaven! How dare you imprison your own father? Qiao Mu! You rebellious daughter, you... ah!" Mu Jingfeng, appearing insane and dishevelled, was pushed and shoved into the inner chamber.

The wooden door slammed shut, causing Mu Qingya and the others in the outer room to shiver with fear.

Everyone looked up with dread, carefully observing the expressionless Crown Princess.

She was so resolute and decisive, as if there wasn't a shred of familial affection for Mu Jingfeng.

At this moment, Qiao Mu's gaze was fixed unblinkingly on Mu Qingya's face.

She stared at her as if she wanted her gaze to bore a hole in her face, or even into her heart, to see what this woman was truly thinking.

Although she hadn't seen the scene that transpired in the room earlier, when she entered the Gilded Jade Court, the argument between the two was at its most intense.

Even without witnessing it firsthand, she had heard everything.

With her intelligence, she could naturally guess why Mu Qingya had turned against Mu Jingfeng.

Mu Qingya had actually hated this man every single moment since the day Mu Jingfeng forcibly took her?

All these years, she had hidden it so well, but she had constantly suppressed this hatred in the deepest part of her heart.

This woman was truly perplexing, Qiao Mu observed her.

The little Crown Princess's gaze made Mu Qingya feel a little uneasy.

She coughed several times and looked up at Qiao Mu, saying, "Crown Princess, th-thank you for saving my life."

"Why do you hate Mu Jingfeng so much?" Qiao Mu felt that instead of letting questions linger in her mind, it was better to ask directly.

Mu Qingya's expression instantly changed slightly. "I, I don't hate, hate the family head..."
