Chapter 120



Shouldn’t they go to a secluded corner if they were to have a heart-to-heart talk?

Why was the actual situation so different from what she had imagined?

More unfortunately, Wei Yuewu had turned to walk forward. At this time, Yang Yuyan could not stand still alone, so she had to follow behind Wei Yuewu and timidly moved towards the center of the raised platform in the hall.

“Why, isn’t this my elder sister who always prefers to stay at home? Sister, didn’t you say you didn’t like to get involved in such gatherings and wouldn’t come even if you are invited by the princesses? Why did you come shortly after I left?” Yang Yurou said loudly in a shriek voice as she disgustedly swept her eyes past Wei Yuewu and finally stared at her sister, Yang Yuyan.

All of a sudden, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the two of them.

It was only too natural for them to receive attention from other young ladies. A quick thought would allow one to see so many similarities between their situations. Many young ladies who shared this thought covered their lips with handkerchiefs and smiled.

Sure enough, birds of a feather flocked together. The infamous Sixth Miss Wei and Eldest Miss Yang seemed to have a good relationship. One led the way and the other followed behind, as if they were advancing together on a battlefield.

Wei Yuewu had reached the highest step at this time. Yang Yuyan had no choice but to face her sister and explained with a blushing face, “I… I didn’t say I wouldn’t come. I was slower… and you left earlier.”

Coincidentally, Wei Yuewu tilted her body to the side, leaving the two sisters facing each other.

“Eldest Sister, did you mean that you didn’t want to be in a hurry and even the princess’ invitation was of no use and I, as your younger sister, must not start off before you? I know that I should respect you as my elder sister, but the princess’ summon is more important than you, isn’t it? So please forgive me for not waiting for you.”

Yang Yurou looked at Yang Yuyan and mocked her.

The royal authority was of course above family ties. Yang Yuyan would otherwise be accused of ignoring common social norms by asking her younger sister to place her above the princesses.

“Second Younger Sister… you … why did you say such words?” Yang Yuyan’s hands trembled from anger at Yang Yurou’s false charge. Her entire face flushed.

“Eldest Sister, why can’t I? Am I not telling the truth? You couldn’t make up your mind as to whether to come or not. You even returned Third Princess’ invitation. Well, it seems that you asked it back. The Third Princess is good-tempered. Otherwise, how would she allow you to come?”

Yang Yurou raised her head and snorted coldly. She glanced at Wei Yuewu who was standing at the side and seemed not to discover Wei Yuewu until now. She said in a dramatic manner, “Is this Sixth Miss Wei from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang? Eldest Sister, you’ve really found a friend. No wonder showed up here so eagerly despite your previous refusal to come.”

Yang Yurou clicked her tongue as she sized Wei Yuewu up and down.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes moved from Yang Yuyan to Wei Yuewu. Some mockingly pointed at her, some frowned, and others stood by to see how Wei Yuewu would handle the current situation.

Yang Yurou dared to be so arrogant because her mother was also from the Tu Clan. Although her mother was not a first daughter, she was at least related to the Empress. That was why Yang Yurou, though merely a daughter of an insignificant assistant minister, dared to provoke Wei Yuewu, the daughter of Marquis Hua Yang.

Seeing Yang Yurou shifted her fire at Wei Yuewu, Yang Yuyan flushed and forced herself to muster up her courage. She said loudly, “Second Younger Sister, it has nothing to do with Sixth Miss Wei. Whatever you want to say, say it to me!”

“Oh, I never knew you were actually so protective of your friend. You just met Sixth Miss Wei and you’ve already gotten on so well with her? It looks like that you really take Sixth Miss Wei as your friend. Big news that you can have a friend too and she happens to be the famous Sixth Miss Wei!”

Seeing Yang Yuyan getting angry, Yang Yurou became even more aggressive. She disliked Yang Yuyan the most at home. When the two of them were in a conflict, she always had the upper hand. Now she acted in her usual domineering manner and even ridiculed Wei Yuewu.

She didn’t go to the palace banquet last time because she was not noble enough as an assistant minister’s daughter. She heard that this Sixth Miss Wei amazed everyone at the palace banquet whereas that Second Miss Wei, who had always enjoyed a good name, lost her reputation. The incident ended up with Second Miss Wei being betrothed to Sixth Miss Wei’s fiancé.

In Yang Yurou’s opinion, Wei Yuewu was utterly useless since she couldn’t even keep her engagement and surrendered it readily to Wei Yan. Yang Yurou saw Mo Huating a few times. That tall handsome figure had unknowingly taken a place in her heart and she was infatuated with him. She had always be indignant at the fact that Mo Huating was forced to marry an untalented and plain-looking person.

She had never had a good impression of Wei Yuewu. It could be said that Lady Li and Wei Yan were responsible for most of the rumors of how untalented and plain-looking Wei Yuewu was, but Yang Yurou had also played a big role in spreading such rumors. Now she saw Wei Yuewu, of course she was not happy. The more charming Wei Yuewu looked, the angrier she was.

It was only natural that she started to attack Wei Yuewu instead.

Some onlookers were gloating over this misfortune, while others felt sympathy. However, everyone watched the scene and waited patiently for the event to develop….

“You are the Second Young Lady from the mansion of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works?” The reason why Wei Yuewu had come to the stairs was that she noticed that this girl was looking at her and Yang Yuyan unfriendly. She was prepared. Such an imposing manner. Second Miss Yang? What a coincidence.…

Seeing Yang Yurou directly attacking her, Wei Yuewu unhurriedly raised her head and looked at Yang Yurou with her clear and beautiful eyes. She smiled coldly.

Yang Yurou glanced sideways at Wei Yuewu and then raised her head in disdain. “Yes, I am. So what?”

Wei Yuewu looked exceptionally beautiful. So what? She couldn’t even keep her engagement. Apparently she was an incapable person who would be resigned to everything unpleasant. In large aristocratic families, people with such a temperament could hardly end up well.

“Can the Second Young Lady from the mansion of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works scold other young ladies like this? I wonder how high the rank of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works is? Or is it true that the rank of Assistant Minister Yang is higher than any other official so that his daughter is also nobler than the young ladies of other families?”

Wei Yuewu curled her lips and said those words indifferently.

No matter how arrogant Yang Yurou was, she was now unable to mouth back with a proper reply. Her face immediately turned crimson due to embarrassment.

A daughter from the mansion of an assistant minister was of course inferior to a daughter from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. Marquis Hua Yang was not an ordinary aristocrat but a powerful officer who was in charge of the army. In addition, Wei Luowu was the Minister of Works. No matter how one looked at it, the mansion of Assistant Minister Yang was not equal to the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. However, Yang Yurou now acted as if she was superior. She had been in the wrong to scold Wei Yuewu.

She was usually arrogant and domineering at home, but in the outside, she knew that there were some people she could not provoke. For example, she had never provoked Wei Yan. The reason why she bullied Wei Yuewu was that she thought Wei Yuewu was a soft touch. However, she never expected that Wei Yuewu, who looked so weak, was not like her eldest sister, who would become tearful and speechless after being bullied.

“I… I didn’t say that an assistant minister is a high official position.” Looking at the mocking eyes around her, Yang Yurou had no choice but to explain.

“If an assistant minister is not that important, what makes you think you can scold me, Second Miss Yang?” Although Wei Yuewu’s voice was gentle and soft, her words were as sharp as a knife.

Those present were all young ladies from aristocratic families. The environment they lived in enabled them to interpret some things in political terms.

Why was Yang Yurou so arrogant? Could it be that she had someone to rely on? With this thought in mind, the other young ladies started to view Yang Yurou differently.

Was it because of Empress Tu? None of the young ladies dared to say a word when it came to the Empress. The two princesses were about to arrive. It was obviously unwise to get involved at this time.

The hall strangely quieted down, and for a moment, there was deafening silence in it.

“I….” Yang Yurou was speechless at the question. Her face turned from livid to red and then to purple. She pointed at Wei Yue and was speechless.

“What? Second Miss Yang, are you going to reprimand me on behalf of my father?” Wei Yuewu smiled sweetly.

These words were even more serious. Yang Yurou had absolutely no right to berate Wei Yuewu on behalf of Marquis Hua Yang, an important figure in court.

“Interesting! How interesting! The untalented and plain-looking daughter of Marquis Hua Yang.” On the second floor of a side hall opposite to the main hall stood a few people. From their position, not only could they clearly see the young ladies in the hall, but they could hear their words. One of them could not help but knock on the window frame with the foldable fan in his hand and laugh out loud when he heard those words.

“Marquis Jing Yuan, I heard that young lady was your ex-fiancee. What an interesting young lady!” After laughing for a while, the person seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and looked at Mo Huating, who was standing behind him. He said with a teasing expression, “Marquis Jing Yuan, do you regret it? She’s such a beautiful young lady!”

As he spoke, he winked at Mo Huating and made an expression that all the others could understand. Another person beside him laughed out loud too.

“Marquis Jing Yuan, did you really not know that Sixth Miss Wei was actually so beautiful? If I had known that she was so outstanding, I would have asked my mother to make a proposal. I would absolutely have acted earlier than you and arranged the engagement. Look now, you lost a real beauty and got Second Miss Wei, a slut!”

“That’s true! But we still have a chance.” The one in the front laughed even louder.

“That’s right, that’s right. As long as we can marry a princess, I believe that the Empress will not refuse our request to marry Sixth Miss Wei, considering our status.” The one in the back did not back down, indicating their unusual identity.

Mo Huating lowered his head as he stood behind them. He calmly waited for them to finish laughing before he silently raised his eyes and looked at that fragile looking girl on the platform downstairs. A trace of inexplicable thought flashed through his eyes.

His fingers unconsciously slipped across his pouch at his waist.…
