Prince’s Fierce Concubine - C98
Before closing the door, he could still hear her exceptionally clear voice.
“That’s right, Grandmaster. To the princess, this is a matter of the heart. If we don’t do something and wipe away some people and things, the princess might not be able to sleep soundly.”
The servant girl locked outside the door and stood there without moving slightly. Her eyes slightly moved, and with her body arched, she jogged out of the courtyard.
The Crown Prince Su Jin, the Fifth Prince Su An, and the substitute all sat in the great hall quietly as the Marquis Anping’s Wife sobbed softly.
“I don’t know if it’s because I’ve committed too many sins, but in the past ten years, I’ve never given my sister an incense stick.
“Right now, elder sister has started to complain about me underground. She still wants to force me into the Underworld. I, I …”
Before he finished speaking, Marquis Anping’s Wife covered his face and cried.
Fifth Prince Su An’s pitch-black eyes blinked slightly.
He said, “How can there be ghosts in this world? It must be because Madam has been overworked recently, causing this illusion to appear. Madam, please don’t worry too much!”
The Marquis Anping’s Wife shook his head, “At my age, what can I do? If I’m not raising flowers here, I’m just strolling on the birds. How can I be tired?”
The Crown Prince Su Jin followed up and said, “There can’t be ghosts in this world. The ghosts that Madam can see are definitely man-made. Once I capture this person for Madam, I will hand him over to Madam for punishment, and then lock the justice courts up for questioning.”
The corner of Li Churan’s mouth moved, just as he was about to say something, a servant girl suddenly ran out from outside the hall.
The maidservant’s face was filled with fear and her breathing was unstable. It could be seen that she must have been exercising intensely a moment ago.
She stuttered, “Madam, Princess Yuexi … Princess Yuexi seems to want to bribe the master to continue lying to Madam. He said that Madam Hualan’s ghost is still alive in this world …”
“What did you say?!”
Marquis Anping’s Wife seemed to be extremely shocked. She stood up abruptly and knocked over a piece of the tea table beside her.
The servant girl’s face was pale as she repeated herself.
Madam, Princess Yuexi, she wanted to use gold to bribe Master, she said that Madam Hualan’s ghost had always been by Madam’s side. She also said that she did not wish for you to live a peaceful life, Princess, the princess, she wanted to scare you to death!
The color in Li Churan’s eyes turned a little darker.
However, the Crown Prince Su Jin said, “Princess Yuexi still has such a plan. When Madame just had an accident, the princess was already thinking about how to add insult to injury. This is very inconsistent with the princess’ style …”
Marquis Anping’s Wife’s gaze suddenly fell on the crown prince.
As if somewhat surprised, he actually spoke up for Lin Xuecha.
Fifth Prince Su An’s eyes were as black as ink. “Wouldn’t we know if we didn’t go and take a look?
A group of people rushed to Lin Xuecha’s courtyard.
On the other hand, Lin Xuecha was feeling extremely bored. With a smile on his face, he made tea for the Exorcist Master.
A scorching heat came from his fingertip, but somehow, he suddenly thought of Su Nanxing.
Burning incense and playing the zither.
Tea, tea.
That was an extremely leisurely, carefree, and calm environment. However, right now, she was using this sort of environment to make some deals with others.
Lin Xuecha poured a cup of fragrant tea for the exorcist master.
Perhaps it was the aroma of tea, but the exorcist didn’t say much. She took the cup of tea from her hand and slowly savored it.
A faint sound came from outside the house. It was not very loud.
Lin Xuecha seemed to not have noticed at all, his smile still blossoming like a flower.
She held out her hand and handed the master a small slip of paper.
The Exorcist Grandmaster slowly weighed her options for a moment before taking the slip of paper from her hand.
Just as he was about to open it and take a look, he was stopped by Lin Xuecha.
“In order to prevent the Grandmaster from forgetting everything, Snowy Tea wrote down the request to the Grandmaster on this small piece of paper. She would only open it after the Grandmaster had agreed to it.”
The Exorcist Master nodded indifferently.
“Since the princess has given me a reward, I can do anything I want. I will definitely do my best to settle the matter that I promised the princess.”
Lin Xuecha shook her head at him, her voice was clear and cold.
“What the Snow Tea requires is not that the Grandmaster will do his best, but that he will definitely do it.”
“This …”
The Exorcist Grandmaster muttered to himself.
“There is always a possibility to everything. If it is outside of my capabilities, how can I give an explanation to the princess?”
Ting Zhu said from the side, “For a master like you, this matter is extremely easy. It is but a simple matter of lifting a person’s hand, and a mere word or two, how difficult can it be?”
The exorcist master frowned slightly, and Lin Xuecha took out another bag of gold from his sleeve.
He walked from the table to the front of the exorcist grandmaster.
“If Grandmaster agrees to this matter, I will definitely repay Grandmaster with a large sum of money.”
Before she could finish her sentence, the tightly shut door was kicked open.
Lin Xuecha looked towards the source of the voice.
Seeing that it was the Marquis Anping’s Wife, the crown prince, Li Churan and the others who followed behind her, all stood up.
Her face was flustered. “Mother …”
As if she had thought of something, she immediately bent down and bowed towards the Marquis Anping’s Wife, the Crown Prince and the others.
Snow Tea greets the Crown Prince, Fifth Prince, Imperial Censor, and Mother.
Ting Zhu also stood to the side and bowed.
“This servant greets Crown Prince, Fifth Prince, Imperial Censor, Madam.”
Without thinking, Marquis Anping’s Wife walked up and snatched the small piece of paper from the Exorcist Master’s hands.
Holding the paper in her hands, she glared at Lin Xuecha furiously, using harsh words.
“Snowy, this is how you treat me. How can I be sorry for you? Your clothes, your living conditions, your diet, have you ever been treated so harshly by me? How can you be so deranged and ungrateful? What kind of good intentions do you have?!”
Lin Xuecha kneeled down with a “pu tong” sound.
“Is mother’s words too harsh? What did Snowy do wrong? Why is mother so angry?”
“You still dare to quibble!” Marquis Anping’s Wife’s phoenix eyes turned cold. She was too angry on the surface, so she must be extremely angry in her heart.
If you did not want to do something shameful, how could you close the door in broad daylight? Although your reputation is not good, you are still the first daughter of my Marquis Anping Palace. How can you casually let a man into your courtyard and your house?
Lin Xuecha’s clear eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of coldness, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
She lowered her eyes slightly, but spoke in a low voice, her tone tinged with a thick sense of disappointment.
“In the eyes of the people, a master exorcist is considered half a monk. Master has long seen through the world and has broken all emotions and desires. Snowy tea and Master, how can you talk about the defenses of men and women?!”
Besides, there is also Ting Zhu in the house. In the house, there are not only Snow Tea and Master, there are only two men and one woman, and although Snow Tea is a woman with a bad reputation, she still has her own self-respect and love, and has never done anything wrong, but Mother, as Snow Tea’s mother, has always been the opposite.
She didn’t finish her words.
However, the meaning behind her words were very clear.
Marquis Anping’s Wife was lying, and ruining her good name.
Furthermore, as Lin Xuecha’s matriarch, even if Lin Xuecha did something wrong, she should still focus on teaching him, and it was definitely not as simple as scolding him.
From this point of view, the image of the Marquis Anping’s Wife in everyone’s hearts had plummeted.
Marquis Anping’s Wife’s expression turned cold.
Everyone knew that Lin Xuecha was not stupid, but they didn’t know that she was actually this eloquent.
The retort left everyone speechless.
Marquis Anping’s Wife was also not a stupid person.
It was just that last night, he was truly quite frightened, and adding on to the fact that today, Lin Xueyu told her that the person who appeared last night, could actually be Lin Xuecha.
Throughout all her life, she had never bowed and kowtowed to a mere junior.
But she really believed Lin Xueyu’s words. In her heart, she was certain that the white shadow from last night was definitely Lin Xuecha.
This was why he was so anxious, wanting to capture Lin Xuecha in one go.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuecha actually used this loophole to go against her.
Marquis Anping’s Wife held onto the small piece of paper that Lin Xuecha had given to the Exorcist Master.
“There was someone just now who told me that you were bribing the master in your courtyard to think of a way to deal with me.” There was just someone just now, who told me that you were bribing the master in your courtyard to think of a way to deal with me.
She reacted so quickly …
The corner of Lin Xuecha’s mouth hooked up into a smile, but his eyes did not have the slightest bit of emotion.
Her eyes were lowered, and others could not see the emotions in them. All they could see was her tightly pursed lips and her humble posture.
“Snowy, please don’t say too much about this matter. Mother, please don’t make things difficult for the Snowy Tea.”
“Difficult?!”
Marquis Anping’s Wife snorted coldly.
You didn’t want to tell me the reason because you were doing something that couldn’t be exposed. You wanted to harm me, didn’t you? Your heart is so narrow-minded, and that’s because yesterday, I scolded you a few times, saying that you don’t go out and get sick.
No tea!
“No!” Just as Marquis Anping’s Wife was about to get angry, Li Churan spoke out and interrupted her.
“Everything requires proof. Madam, you should first take out evidence, and then verify it with the Princess Yuexi, one by one. After all, Princess Yuexi’s identity is noble, so you must be careful of what you say.”
The expression in the Fifth Prince Su An’s eyes changed slightly.
He looked at the man who stood beside him and saw that his expression was as cool as the wind and there was not a trace of haze on his face. However, if one were to take a closer look, a trace of coldness would quickly flash past his eyes.
Fifth Prince Su An raised his eyebrows slightly but did not say a word.
On the other hand, Crown Prince Su Jin looked at Lin Xuecha, then looked at Marquis Anping’s Wife, and said indifferently.
“You can’t even say it like that. In the princess’ courtyard, a man appeared for no reason and asked the princess why, but the princess refused to say anything more.” You can’t even say it like that, in the princess’ courtyard, a man appeared for no reason and asked the princess for a reason and the princess refused to say anything more.
Li Churan’s gaze was fixated on Lin Xuecha’s body.
“If the princess hadn’t done anything and instead did something she shouldn’t have done, doesn’t Crown Prince feel that she has been wronged?”
The Crown Prince was stunned and didn’t answer.
Lin Xuecha’s deep black eyes faintly flashed, and she did not say anything.
