MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 594 How virtuous and capable
Chapter 594 What virtue is there?
Jiangdong is a long way from the capital. After the old lady passed away, it took more than half a month for the letter to reach Murong Palace in Jiangdong.
King Murong was cared for by the old lady when he was young. He was very sad when he heard the bad news. However, in the Murong Palace, the person who was most saddened by the old lady's passing was Qingluan.
When Qingluan heard the news, she was so sad that she fainted. Zhao Xuan knew that she was deeply in love with the old lady, so he comforted her thoughtfully: "It is a blessing that my great-aunt passed away at a long life. Princess, please don't be overly sad. Just take care of yourself."
Qingluan cried so hard that she couldn't help herself, and choked with sobs: "The only person in this world who truly loves and protects me is my grandmother. Now that she is gone, there is no one who truly treats me."
Murong Yi frowned and comforted her, "Princess, I'm still here. I promised my great-aunt that I will take good care of you."
Murong Yi is a humble gentleman. Although Qingluan has a paranoid personality, he always tries his best to be considerate to his wife. Qingluan is also in love with Murong Yi, but she cannot control her temper when she gets angry.
Now Qingluan was feeling sad. After listening to her husband's words, she became petulant again and said angrily: "Now that I don't have my grandmother to make the decision, how can your Murong family tolerate me? Why don't you encourage your concubines to get angry?" I, I am Amitabha."
"What are you talking about?" Murong Yi frowned, with anger on his face, but because of his wife's excessive sadness, he endured it and said kindly: "Princess, you are going too far. She is my wife, how could I, Murong Yi, let my concubines deceive you? Besides, they are all daughters of wealthy families and are well-educated, so they have no such intentions."
When Qingluan heard this, he became even more angry and said to Murong Yi: "I know you have those concubines in your heart. In this case, just go find them. Why are you still perfunctory with me?"
Murong Yi was still about to tell the difference, but saw that his wife had left him and went to the inner hall, so he sighed and walked out.
Walking outside the palace, Murong Yi happened to see Pang and his children coming to greet Qingluan. Zhao Xuan stopped Pang and said, "Don't go in, the princess is in a bad mood right now."
Before Pang could respond, Murong Yi's youngest daughter Bi Jieer said displeasedly: "This princess has to act petty eight days out of ten. She is really stingy."
Pangshi hurriedly tried to persuade her daughter: "Bier, the princess is the legitimate mother. It's so rude of you to speak like this."
Sister Bi glanced at her concubine. Although she closed her mouth angrily, her face was still calm.
Pang Zi gave Murong Yi a slight salute, "I have no way of teaching my daughter. I hope your son will forgive me."
Qingluan has an eccentric and cunning temperament that even Murong Yi herself can't tolerate at times. She comforted Pang and said, "It's very hard for you to help me raise my children, so what's the crime?"
Seeing her father speak, Sister Bi blurted out: "The princess has always been domineering. In terms of character, the concubine is much better than her. My father should have made the concubine his wife."
"Shut up!" Pangzi quickly covered his daughter's mouth and said coldly: "You child, who taught you such rebellious words? If spread, it will cause big trouble."
Sister Bi was frightened, her mouth flattened, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Murong Yi comforted his daughter and said to Pang: "My aunt passed away, and the princess is in a bad mood, so she is in a bad mood today. You just don't have to come here for a while."
Pang Zi respectfully replied that he knew, then looked at Murong Yi distressedly, and sighed: "The prince has lost a lot of weight recently, you should take more care of yourself."
Murong Yi smiled at Pang Zi, said it was okay, and sent them back personally. The death of the old lady was really a big blow to Qingluan. For several days, she stayed in the palace crying, and every time Zhao Xuan came to offer kind words, she was always met with harsh words.
It wasn’t until the old lady’s 100th day that Qingluan’s mood stabilized.
On this day, the weather was fine, so Qingluan ordered people to place a tribute table by the lake in the garden. She took a bath and changed clothes, and came in plain clothes. She was accompanied by two maids, who set off river lanterns and prayed for incense to pay homage to her grandmother.
The spring weather was just right, Brother Ning and Sister Bi had finished their afternoon school. When they passed by the garden, Sister Bi was so playful that she insisted on dragging her brother to the garden to catch butterflies.
The brother and sister happened to meet Qingluan who was paying homage. Qingluan was unhappy when he saw someone intruding. He complained to the maid beside him: "I am here to pay homage to my grandmother. Why don't you order someone to guard the garden gate?"
As he spoke, he rolled his eyes at Brother Ning and his sister, and snorted coldly: "Let these two frivolous children break in and disturb my memorial ceremony for my grandmother."
Sister Bi was pampered by Zhao Xuan. Before the maid could respond, Sister Bi replied in a deep voice: "This is the garden of our palace. My brother and I are the legitimate sons and daughters of the palace. Why can't we come here?"
Seeing Sister Bi's rude remarks, Qingluan said angrily: "I am the princess of Daqi, the wife of your father Ming Matchmaker, and your aunt. How dare you disrespect me? If you do this, you should be dealt with according to the family law."
Sister Bi was still arguing, but Ning Geer stepped forward and bowed to Qingluan: "My sister is young and not sensible. I hope my mother is rich enough to forgive her ignorance."
Ning Ge'er is only seven years old, but he has perfectly inherited his father's temperament and demeanor. He behaves like a noble prince.
Qingluan's maid Chao Lu saw this and was worried that things would get serious, so she stepped forward to persuade her: "The kid's family is not sensible. Since the eldest son apologizes, the princess will forgive the eldest daughter."
Qingluan's **** was still lingering, so she rolled her eyes at Sister Bi and snorted coldly: "I'll spare you once today, but if I don't punish you with minor punishments or severe punishments, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me, my aunt, to stand up in front of you, so why don't you just Go back to your room and punish you to copy the "Women's Rules" twenty times. When you finish writing, you will be able to rest."
Sister Bi has been spoiled since she was a child, how could she have suffered such injustice?
She immediately started crying and making a fuss, pointing at Qingluan and yelling: "Since you married dad, our family has been in a state of chaos. Apart from enjoying the dignity of a princess, what virtues and abilities do you have to be the wife of my Jiangdong Murong family?" Wife of the clan, hum! I will go back and tell dad to divorce you."
Qingluan was furious, raised his hand and slapped Sister Bi.
This angered Sister Bi even more. Not to be outdone, the little girl gritted her teeth and bumped into Qingluan. Qingluan subconsciously dodged and pushed her. Sister Bi was unsteady and then He fell headlong into the lake.
Everyone was dumbfounded immediately, but Qingluan was here to pay homage, and he had ordered people not to come near him. Because Brother Ning and Sister Bi had a distinguished status, the gatekeeper did not dare to stop him. He originally thought that they were just two children, so they would not be in the way. It didn't matter, so he let them in, so now that Sister Bi's son fell into the water, there was no servant, woman, or boy in the garden who could protect her.
Qingluan's two maids didn't know the nature of water at all. They were shocked when they saw this and hurriedly called for help. It's just that Sister Bi is young and there is no room for people to come. The little girl fell into the lake and disappeared.
At this critical moment, Brother Ning called out "sister" loudly and jumped into the water to save her without risking his own life.
