MMSTEM Chapter 34
Translated chapter released:) and proofread by Joyce.
After the ma.s.sacre that happened in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, Huang Fu Yue Xun wholeheartedly spent his time in investigations and didn’t accompany Li Wan Wan. Thus, Li Wan Wan was alone and finally, had a taste. After some time, she got impatient and mistreated some few servants.
“What are you all servants doing? Don’t you have eyes!”
This kind of situation was common these past, few days. Everyone in Li Wan Wan’s room lowered their head, afraid that they would make Li Wan Wan unsatisfied which led to punishment. They didn’t know what type of torments or punishment they would receive. Originally, they thought that if they followed Li Wan Wan, they would have good days. However now, the number of servants flattering w.a.n.gfei was increasing. When their master saw w.a.n.gfei holding authority, their master would lose temper, thus scolding and hitting them. Who’s able to live in this kind of day ah?
Li Wan Wan wanted to control her temper but was unable to calm her anger. Why can’t she compare to that woman who has nothing, except status. That woman s.n.a.t.c.hed the “w.a.n.gfei” t.i.tle which originally belongs to her and now, she wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h his man too?If the first scheme failed, then there would be a second time. She did not believe that she would fail every time.
With the winter season, it was rare to have a fine weather. Mo Qi Liang was in the courtyard strolling around when she heard Servant No. 1 reporting that someone came to pay a visit. Again, the same concubines of Huang Fu Yue Xun. What was their purpose this time?
“Our visit does not disturb w.a.n.gfei’s rest?” Still the same woman spoke. Looking at her appearance, probably her age should be around twenty something. Never expect Huang Fu Yue Xun would love an older woman.
“Last time, I didn’t ask for your name. If you don’t mind, please introduce yourself.” Mo Qi Liang didn’t know that they were thinking she could bring them a good life. However, she herself was unable to get her own desired life.
“This concubine is Xi Meng Ying. The other two is Qin Su Su and Xu Ling Yue. All of us are w.a.n.gfei’s concubine.”
Last time she saw Xi Meng Ying, and Mo Qi Liang had a deep impression of her. As her status is a concubine, naturally she would stay in a wealthy family but it was somewhat a pity.
“A few of you entered this residence way longer than me. Moreover, you are all my seniors. There’s no need to be polite.” Mo Qi Liang did not really take into account their manners. The few people in front of her didn’t object, but they could not easily abandon their conduct, so they did it in this way.
“Courtesy couldn’t be abandoned. w.a.n.gfei doesn’t have to accommodate us.” Xi Meng Ying said. Even she wanted to live a peaceful life in this mansion. But based on her status, she must find a backer. Originally, she was attached to Li Wan Wan. More or less she would have favour, but she received different achievements than what she begged for. At this time, Mo Qi Liang appeared and matched her wishes, which was why she was eager to be friends with Mo Qi Liang.
“Whatever. What brings you here today?” Even though she does not have a bad impression towards Xi Men Ying, it didn’t represent that she’s willing to mind the other’s business. Mo Qi Liang’s ideal wish was to live peacefully without being disturbed by anyone. Even sometimes, she thinks that Servant No. 1 and Servant No. 2’s presence was unnecessary, but to do everything by herself was not suitable for she was a lazy person. That’s why she simply let them serve her. However, if someone intends to treat her as a s.h.i.+eld, she couldn’t help but be bothered by it.
“We, concubines only came to see w.a.n.gfei, and didn’t have any other intentions.”Xi Meng Ying was always the one talking whereas the two other people’s expression somewhat shows impatience.
“Since you came here, let’s have a meal before you leave. It happens to be lunch time now.” Although her courtyard appears to be worn out, it has all her needs. Sometimes, extra people in the room were not a bad decision.
Just when Mo Qi Liang and the concubines agreed to have a meal together, she never expected Huang Fu Yue Xun to suddenly come over. Looking at every one of them, having timid and shy expressions glancing at Huang Fu Yue Xun, she was afraid that this lunch would drag longer.
Huang Fu Yue Xun intends to tell Mo Qi Liang something, that he found the woman they were looking for. This matter couldn’t be revealed to other people and Mu Rong Lun Shu already went home. Thinking of it, he himself never came to her courtyard. That’s why he came here to tell the good news and never expected that other people were present too.
“Why are you all here?” Out of curiosity, Huang Fu Yue Xun asked. Just that his tone was stiff. He didn’t know that he had broken a few people’s heart. Just now, the shy expressions changed to grieving. No wonder Huang Fu Yue Xun didn’t like them. Compared to Li Wan Wan, they make people speechless.
“They came here to see me. Let’s have lunch if w.a.n.gye hasn’t had a meal yet.” Mo Qi Liang helps relieve the awkward atmosphere. After all, this was her place. It’s not nice if they’re in a deadlock.
Huang Fu Yue Xun suspiciously glanced at Mo Qi Liang. When did she plan to have a good relations.h.i.+p with them?. Don’t tell him, she started to care towards him? (this guy definitely think too much).
“When did you all have a good relations.h.i.+p?” Huang Fu Yue Xun tried asking again without a hidden meaning. However, the three women thought it was daring to have a backing in the Prince Mansion. Hence, their expression turned to a terrified one.
However, Mo Qi Liang did not think like that. She only said, “Women matters are not worthy for w.a.n.gye to worry about.” Since I didn’t like you, I won’t like your women as well. Is it worthwhile for thieves to guard against me?
Regarding Mo Qi Liang’s words, Huang Fu Yue Xun was used to it. He was not listening as to avoid himself from getting angry. This was the conclusion made under many conversations, absolutely reasonable.
