The Legend Of Beishang
28. The Queen Mother's House II
"Wangfei Niangniang, you're late but you've got all the attention on you. How about we toast to our first meeting ?" Ask Madam Jiang.
"Miss Jiang, this is not the first time we have met. We've met before her at the palace, like her your memory is a little bad or you're not looking at me at all ? " Task her gently.
Madam Jiang's face turned blue from enduring the embarrassment, the intention of wanting to curry favor with the Queen Mother instead of humiliating herself.
"Miss Jiang, I heard Master Jiang has just picked up two other concubines who were previously comfort women. It is better to be wary of women of unknown origin. " Say it lightly.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang is indeed clever in saying the word, I heard below Bei Wang will go to war. I fear that Bei Wangfei Niangniang will feel lonely and bring others. " Say Mrs Ning.
He who heard this was not angry, the people here looked down on him too low.
"Mrs Ning, your words made my heart ache. Bei Wang can go to the border because His Majesty has no one else to rely on. Why didn't Mr Ning just go ?" Ask her with real mockery.
He said as if other than Bei Wang, there was nothing useful. The other is just a leech that can suck up money.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang, you said too harshly. You said that everyone is useless other than Bei Wang, do you intend to challenge everyone ?" Madam Ning asked still not giving up.
"Mrs Ning, you said wrongly. I never said they were useless. Of course they were useful, if they were useless then the palace treasury would be too full. But, thanks to all of them, the treasury of the Palace was never full. " Say him with a faint smile.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang, please stand up. " The Queen Mother finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Thank you, Huangtaihou. " Say with a strange smile.
He sat in his place to the left of the Queen Mother. Behind her, there was A Xiang who was ready to help her at any time.
Until he finally poured the tea into his own cup.
"Teh Intan who was personally brought by Commander Xie from the border. Huangtaihou is very generous to present her to everyone. " Take it with a thin smile.
His gaze fell on Xie Bei Chuan who was sitting a little far away, the farther his seat was where the smaller his post.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang really has a good view. Madame Xie has given me before. " Say the Queen Mother while appointing the wife of commander Xie who was sitting opposite her, right next to the Imperial aunt.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang is arguably my nephew as well, not expecting that he has grown so big. " Say Madam Xie pura terpenaru.
She snorted inwardly, This Madam Xie is the same as Xie Bei Chuan, equally insane and torturing her. Look how he humiliated these two women.
"Mrs Xie, I really haven't seen you in a long time. I really miss you, I see that your body becomes more contained, will I soon get a cousin ?" She asked cheerfully and excitedly, as if this was a wish from inside her heart.
Madam Xie's face turned grim before returning a smile, great self-control. If it was Xie Bei Chuan, then that woman would have already exploded.
Who doesn't know that in 20 years of Mrs Xie's marriage, there hasn't been a single child ?
Even Commander Xie had up to take out several tens of other concubines to look for an heir.
"Mrs Xie could have been, our relationship is both very deep. I wanted to find a partner for my son who was a little further away, I heard that marrying into a close family would cause a genetic defect. " Say him with a straightforward smile.
This time the smile completely disappeared from Madam Xie's face, who did not know that Madam Xie's parents were cousins.
People say that because of marriage, it produces people who cannot conceive like Mrs Xie.
"Zhou Beishang ! You're missing !" Shouted Xie Bei Chuan while slamming his cup until it broke into thousands of pieces.
"Oh, Mrs Zhou ? Long time no see you. I may not care if you call me by name when we are at home, but call me by name in public. Aren't you giving Bei Wang face ?" Ask her coldly.
"Destroying the glass in front of Huangtaihou, what a great crime ! This is a form of rebellion, if I were to host here then I would whip you 50 times. But, since Huangtaihou is the Host then I will let Huangtaihou give the order. " His words while cupping both hands lead to the Queen Mother.
In this way, he did not need to dirty his own hands to humiliate his enemy. Who told Xie Bei Chuan to be so cruel ?
Eating money from Bei Zhao with so much, is it still not enough ? Still intending to humiliate her inside the Zhou residence.
"Zhou Beishang ! Do you think that by becoming Bei Wangfei, you can just as easily ?!" Xie Bei Chuan asked as he pointed at her.
"Someone with a lower status referring to a higher status person is a great crime. Mrs Zhou, have you spent all this time just wallowing in the mud ?" He asked while turning his cup.
"Madam Zhou, after all this is the residence of Huangtaihou. You must respect Huangtaihou, if you cannot compromise then don't blame me for acting decisively. " Say Xiao Yu softly.
Xie Bei Chuan immediately knelt down in front of the Queen Mother and paid his respects three times.
"Huangtaihou, please grant my request. Zhou Beishang had forgotten all the graces given by the Zhou Residence and acted accordingly. " Xie Bei Chuan said pitifully.
"Bei Wangfei Niangniang, you must remember the grace given by the Zhou residence before you get married. " Say the Queen Mother calmly.
"Huangtaihou, I certainly respect anyone with the Zhou clan. But, is he someone surnamed Zhou ?" He asked while raising one of his eyebrows.
"Then, Huangtaihou, you seem unfair. I was only lightly joking but Madame Zhou shouted at me and pointed at me. Does this mean to cross swords with our Bei Wang residence ?" Ask her intimidatingly.
He looked at the Queen Mother coldly and threatingly.
"Huangtaihou, will our unvalued friendship with gold and jewels be ruined because of this problem ?" Challenge her.
This of course meant their cooperation, if the Queen Mother chose to keep protecting Xie Bei Chuan then they would become enemies in the future.
He had heard that between the Queen Mother and Xie's residence had some special relationship and this of course would be completed, later.
Just waiting for the time to do that, he was like he was sitting in front of a chessboard at the moment.
The Empress Dowager, Emperor Qin, Xie Bei Chuan, were all just a stepping stone for her.
