Chapter 66 How is countering someone a crime? Part 1
After the horse carriage stopped, Mu Zi Ling reached out her hand to open the curtains.
When she saw the group of people outside, her brows furrowed. If this was what she
thought it was, then the news probably have already spreaded to Empress Dowager by
now.
The person who walked over was the Lin mama who was always by the Empress
Dowager’s side. There was also four palace maids behind her. Rumors say that Lin
mama has came up with many evil ideas to please Empress Dowager.
Now, she has become the Empress Dowager’s favorite and placed no one in her eyes.
“This old servant greets the Qi Princess and Sixth Prince.” greeted Lin mama arrogantly
with a raised the pitch. Her face was stiff and harsh, containing no signs of respect at all.
Her eyes didn’t even look at them, and her voice was very loud, as if they were deaf and
couldn’t hear her.
“This servant greets the Princess and Sixth Prince.” said the four palace maids, following
Lin mama’s greetings.
Mu Zi Ling started to mock Lin mama in her heart. This old lady talks loudly, but she
doesn’t do anything. Now, she’s even bringing a group of subournates with her.
In this situation, the greeting methode made Lin mama almost seem to have a higher
status than her, the Qi Princess. Was it because that Lin mama already knew that Mu Zi
ling will be having very bad luck today, so she was bragging in front of her?
“You may stand, what do you want from me?” asked Mu Zi Ling even though she already
knew the answer. Although she really couldn’t stand the old lady being so arrogant, she’s
not in the mood to talk about manners with her.
Lin mama coughed a few times, and then she raised her head as she seriously said,
“This old servant is here to bring the Qi Princess to Shou An Palace under the Empress
Dowager’s orders.”
Now, Lin mama was talking about “Bringing” her instead of “Inviting” her. The meaning
was completely different from before.
“Third Sister in law, it seems like Empress Dowager has already heard about this
situation. What do we do now?” wisphered Long Xiao Ze in Mu Zi Ling’s ears.
“What do we do? She was delivering words straight from the Empress Dowager’s mouth,
so do you think I can reject her? Clearly I can’t. Even if I don’t want to go, I would still
have to go.” said Mu Zi Ling loudly and unconcerned. She also knows how to bluff. No
matter what is happening right now, she still has to boost up her status and recover her
lost face.
The Empress knew that Long Xiao Nan’s illness has recurred. However, instead of
urgently telling her to go take a look at Long Xiao Nan, she was trying to create troubles
for her. Was she trying to use this time to let Long Xiao Nan finish letting out his anger
and cool off? She truly was a “kind” and good grandmother.
No matter what kind of dangerous place the Shou An Palace was, she would have to go
in there alone. Mu Zi Ling has no idea what kind of moves the Empress Dowager would
make against her. She would have to be able to counter every one of the Empress
Dowager’s move. If she was not able to counter them, then there would be nothing else
she could do. If only she was higher ranked than the Empress Dowager by status.
“Then let me go with you, third sister in law.” said Long Xiao Ze concernedly. He gets a
feeling that it would be safe for Mu Zi Ling to see the Empress Dowager by herself.
When Lin mama heard that Long Xiao Ze wanted to go too, she didn’t remind him, “Sixth
Prince, Empress Dowager only said that she wanted the Qi Princess to go by herself.
She never mentioned for you to come.”
After she finished speaking, she coldly laughed silently in her heart. She naturally knew
the reason behind why the Empress Dowager wanted Mu Zi Ling to go to the Shou An
Palace by herself.
The gods were really on her side today. That day, she was so humiliated in front of the
Empress Dowager because of this little girl. Today, she will definitely “treat” this Qi
Princess very well.
After hearing these words, Long Xiao Ze wasn’t happy anymore. He stared at Lin mama
and said, “How dare you! If this Prince wanted to pay my respects to Imperial
Grandmother, who are you to stop me?
He also knows what has been happening with this old lady. Now that she has become
more popular in front of the Empress Dowager, she has been acting very halty. She
would oftenly abuse her powers and pick on others. In front of the Empress Dowager,
she has also came up with many dirty tricks in order to harm others. She was awfully
annoying and extremely hateful.
If Third Sister in law was brought to the Shou An Palace by this old lady, who knows
what would happen? He doesn’t want his third sister in law to receive any harm. Even
though he doesn’t have much capabilities, he would still try his best to protect third
sister in law.
“This servant doesn’t dare. It was the Empress Dowager who has said that you don't
have to go pay your respects to her today.”
“You…” Long Xiao Ze was so angry that he wanted to continue speaking, but he was
cut off by Mu Zi Ling.
“It’s fine, I can go by myself. You should go check to see how the Fifth prince’s
conditions are right now.” said Mu Zi Ling lightly.
She also didn’t want Long Xiao Ze to go with her. With his personality, who knows what
kind of trouble he would get into. At that time, not only did he not help her, he would
also get himself in trouble and dragging her down. Doing all that just wouldn’t be worth
it.
“Third sister in law…” whined Long Xiao Ze.
Mu Zi Ling gave him a reassuring look and said, “Alright, go and don't worry about me.”
“Ok, I will get off of the carriage.” After Long Xiao Ze finished speaking, he immediately
jumped out of the carriage. He didn’t dare to waste any more time. Every minute that he
wastes is giving the Empress Dowager an extra reason to pin a crime onto third sister
in law’s head.
After Long Xiao Ze got off of the carriage, the carriage continued to move. However,
Long Xiao Ze didn’t move after he jumped out of the carriage. He just stared of to the
direction that the carriage has left to.
Only when the carriage has disappeared out of sight did he hurriedly ran towards the
another direction. That direction was not to the Nan the Nan He Palace. It was to the…
