"Master, if anything happens to Qing 'er, I don't want to live anymore!"
Seeing that Liu Yanzhi was accusing her first, Zheng Min did not let it go. She pulled Murong Xinlian and let Murong Tai see her face that was ruined by the soft sword.
Compared to Liu Yanzhi's grace, Zheng Min, who was thin, looked like a pretty daughter from a humble family. Especially her watery peach blossom eyes, which could make people's hearts beat faster.
"Master, Xin 'er is the most beautiful woman in the capital! So many princes love our Xin 'er, and so many rich people want to marry her. But now, her face is ruined. How can my poor Xin' er live in the future! Old Master, you have to uphold justice for us! "
There were two women and two young girls, and the four of them were crying so loudly that Murong Qiqi couldn't help but frown. If she had known that these women would cause a ruckus, she wouldn't have let the two of them fight.
Murong Qiqi's impatience fell into Li Yunqing's eyes and meant something else. It seemed that his cousin had really changed.
His two beloved concubines cried their hearts out and wanted him to help them. This gave Murong Tai a headache. Both were human. Of his two daughters, one had outstanding ability, and the other had outstanding appearance. Usually, the two would not be so hostile. What was going on today? They were actually fighting for real!
Murong Tai could not figure out what was going on. In addition, the women's cries were very noisy, and Li Yunqing was standing at the side with her arms crossed as if she was watching a show. This made Murong Tai very angry. "Alright, stop arguing. There are guests here! Go back! "
Liu Yanzhi and Zheng Min were startled by Murong Tai's roar. They could tell that Murong Tai was really angry. These two women, who had followed Murong Tai for many years, also restrained their temperament. They wiped their tears and each took their daughter away from Cuizhu Garden.
When Zheng Min left, she glanced at Murong Tai with a resentful look. Liu Yanzhi, on the other hand, changed her expression to that of a daughter crying out for injustice and gave Murong Tai an affectionate look. "Master, I personally cooked black chicken soup for you today. Master, you must come tonight!"
If it weren't for the fact that there were people around, Murong Qiqi would have hugged the spittoon and started vomiting. No wonder Liu Yanzhi's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion was so close to that of the First Madam. Such a woman was indeed a "stunner".
After everyone left, Murong Tai looked at Murong Qiqi coldly. "You'd better stay here. You've caused so much trouble the moment you came back. I'm punishing you for a month to reflect on your mistakes. You're not allowed to go anywhere, so don't embarrass me! Humph — "
With a flick of his sleeve, Murong Tai strode out of Jade Bamboo Garden, ignoring Li Yunqing's presence. He was heading towards the Lotus Fragrance Courtyard, where Zheng Min was. At this moment, what Murong Tai was most worried about was whether or not Zheng Min's appearance had been ruined.
His daughter was the most beautiful woman in the capital, and Murong Tai was hoping to marry her into the royal family. At that time, having two concubines would not only bring them supreme glory!
Murong Tai's hasty appearance caused Murong Qiqi to completely lose faith in this family. It looked like Murong Tai really had no feelings for his third daughter! If it wasn't because she had promised her godfather to protect that person, she would have laughed in the pugilistic world long ago. There was no way she would stay in this place to be a good-for-nothing third miss!
"Su Mei, Suyue, please clean up this place. Throw away the useless ones, and don't add more. Otherwise, you'll have to throw them away again when they're ruined." After being messed around by the four women, Murong Qiqi was a little tired. She looked back at Li Yunqing and could not be bothered to pretend anymore. "Cousin, do as you please. I'm going to catch up on my sleep!"
"Not pretending anymore?" Li Yunqing was surprised by Murong Qiqi's frankness. This girl's timid eyes were now as lazy as a cat's. Only the occasional glint in her eyes revealed her true nature. This was the real her!
"Cousin, you're a smart person. Don't you think it's funny to pretend in front of a smart person?"
There was a type of people in this world who were favored by the heavens. They were born a cut above others, and their intelligence was unparalleled. No matter how others put on a show, they knew what kind of face was underneath the mask.
And Li Yunqing happened to be this type of person.
Since he had seen through her, she might as well display herself openly. Otherwise, she would be treated like a clown and be treated as a joke.
"If aunt saw the changes in cousin, she would definitely be very happy." Li Yunqing smiled. He was right. This girl had a pair of energetic eyes. She was as lazy as a cat. No, she was as untamed as a leopard.
It seemed like his life would not be so boring in the future!
In the Lotus Fragrance Courtyard, Murong Tai propped up his fat belly and gently comforted the tearful Zheng Min, "Alright, my sweetheart. When you cry, my heart hurts so much!"
"Master is biased! Look at how badly Xin 'er's face is injured! It's almost Chinese Valentine's Day. What do you want Xin 'er to do? A while ago, Princess of Anyang praised our Xin 'er and said that she was exceptionally smart. Now, how is Xin 'er going to meet people on Chinese Valentine's Day? Master, if you don't punish Qing 'er this time, I won't let you off! "
When Zheng Min saw that Murong Tai was the first to come to her, she was naturally happy.
Although Murong Qinglian was talented in martial arts, a woman still had to marry. Men would not like such a strong woman. Since ancient times, there had always been heroes saving beauties. There had never been a case of a beauty saving a hero. What kind of story was that!
Zheng Min was full of confidence in her daughter. Since Murong Xuelian could become the Imperial Noble Consort, her daughter Murong Xinlian's appearance would not be bad either. Furthermore, First Madam Li Qiushui had been staying in the temple to eat vegetarian and pray to Buddha. Naturally, no one would obstruct her daughter's path to riches.
"Alright, don't cry. Let's treat Xin 'er's face first!" Murong Tai took out a small box of ointment. "This is a jade ointment made by Young Master Lian. It was brought back by Xuelian. Let Xinlian use it first! Don't disfigure her face. That would be troublesome! "
Hearing that it was a jade ointment made by Young Master Lian, Zheng Min hurriedly took it and opened the box. The fragrance was pleasant. "It is indeed good stuff!"
"That's right. Xuelian only got two boxes in total. Now this box is Xinlian's. Let her treat my face!"
Murong Tai patiently coaxed Zheng Min for a while. Before leaving, he touched her face and hurriedly rushed to the Orchid Fragrance Courtyard where Liu Yanzhi was.
