Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Goodbye (7)_1

"No need, have those people come to see me immediately, the sooner the better." Lady Mu commanded expressionlessly.

"Yes, My Lady." The old servant agreed respectfully.

Even though Lady Mu didn’t specify who to find, the old servant understood clearly.

Taking advantage of the old servant’s absence, Lady Mu took out a box from her hidden compartment, she opened the box to check the contents inside, then closed the box again.

Following that, she began to dress and apply makeup in front of the mirror.

By the time the old servant returned, Lady Mu had finished applying her makeup, "Brush my hair, in the most fashionable style."

Seeing her unusual behavior, the old servant trembled with fear.

"My Lady, you?"

"Enough. Go ahead and comb my hair." Lady Mu hurried impatiently.

With trembling hands, the old maid picked up the comb and slowly started brushing.

After a short while, four or five people appeared quietly in the room.

The appearance of these people was very ordinary, they were the kind that wouldn’t stand out in a crowd.

"Go and kill that bitch You’s woman, and don’t stop until she’s dead." Lady Mu issued a cold order.

"My Lady," the old maid tried to stop her nervously, "the Prince and the Marquis are enraged, if we kill the young lady, we will surely get into trouble."

"Trouble?" Lady Mu almost broke into tears laughing, "now, what trouble can I possibly fear? My son and daughter are dead, what more can happen if there is trouble?"

Seeing her go mad, the old maid became even more panicked. "My Lady, you still have your second son and the young master and young miss. You have to think for them too."

"Second son?" Lady Mu’s voice was filled with despair, "I treated him like a good son, has he ever treated me like his mother? And those two little ones, they have the blood of that bitch You’s woman, why would I spare them?"

"My Lady, the second son has always been good. Whenever he receives any benefits, isn’t he always thinking of you and the Marquis first? As for the young master and young miss, although they have You’s blood, they are also your eldest son’s children, and they belong to the Li Family too." The old maid pleaded carefully, fearing that Lady Mu would lose her mind.

Hearing this, Lady Mu remained silent, but she still ordered the men, "Do as I say, kill You’s woman, and do not stop until she’s dead. If you fail, better go die yourselves."

"Yes, miss." The men then bowed respectfully and quickly disappeared from the room.

"Let’s go." By this time, the old maid had finished arranging Lady’s Mu hair. Lady Mu looked at herself in the mirror, then started laughing in satisfaction.

"My Lady, where are we going?" The old maid asked anxiously, she had felt that Lady Mu was not right ever since they returned.

"Of course, to see my children. Oh, and go to the rooms of the eldest son and eldest daughter, find them each a beautiful set of new clothes. Be quick." Lady Mu instructed.

"Yes, My Lady." Not daring to disobey her order, the old maid hurriedly left.

As the eldest son and daughter of the Marquis’ residence, Li Jiesong and Li Yanran were certainly not short of new clothes. Soon, the old maid and two maidservants came out carrying two sets of new clothes.

Lady Mu touched the new clothes with her hand, and laughed in satisfaction again.

After boarding the carriage, Lady Mu urged the lad driving the carriage to speed up, fearing she wouldn’t see her children for the last time.

Fortunately, the punishment for Li Jiesong and Li Yanran from the Marquis Residence was not continuous, but once every hour.

Chu Suifeng just stood there, not saying a word. Even upon seeing his children beaten to near death, Marquis Li did not dare plead for them.

By the time Lady Mu arrived, Li Yanran was almost at her last breath, but she could still recognize Lady Mu.

"Your Highness, please allow me to dress them in new clothes." Lady Mu kneeled before Chu Suifeng.

As soon as Marquis Li saw her, he was filled with indignation, anxious that she would impulsively say something and anger Chu Suifeng.

"Mm." Initially, Lady Mu thought that Chu Suifeng would not agree to her plea and she was prepared to plead further. Unexpectedly, Prince Ling agreed to her request kindly.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Lady Mu raised her head, her eyes filled with hatred. That hatred was undisguised.

Chu Suifeng’s gaze was as sharp as a knife, filled with ridicule.

Finally, Lady Mu withdrew her gaze, letting two maidservants and the old maid bring the clothes to Li Yanran and Li Jiesong.

"Mother, save me." Li Jiesong was in too much pain, he had fainted and woken up several times, "I can’t hold on any longer."

"Mother." Li Yanran looked at her painfully.

"Don’t be afraid, mother is here. I will definitely protect you all." Lady Mu whispered, "Look, mother brought new clothes for you. As the eldest son and daughter of the Marquis’ Residence, how can you be so ragged?"

"Mother, it hurts so much." The look in Li Yanran’s eyes was scattered, the tears in her eyes had almost dried up.

"It won’t hurt soon." Lady Mu comforted her with a smile, her hand stroking her face, as if she were comforting her as a child.
