Chapter 1213: A Mother-Daughter Quarrel!
Translator: Lonelytree
When Yuwen Ling woke up, her eyes were red and swollen. She immediately ran to Consort Liu De. She wanted to cry, but she didn’t. She looked very sad and pitiful.
“Consort Mother, your daughter wants to marry Jiang Zhennan, your daughter wants to marry Jiang Zhennan. Consort Mother, please help Ling ‘er and tell Imperial Father, okay?”
Consort Liu was so angry that she rubbed her dizzy forehead and asked angrily,” What did you say? Say it again!’
Yuwen Ling knew that she would anger her mother, but she still bit her lower lip. Her eyes were red as she said stubbornly,” Your daughter wants to marry Jiang Zhennan. I beg for your help!’
“Bang!’
Consort Liu immediately threw the teacup on the table and roared at Yuwen
Ling,” Yuwen Ling, are you crazy? It seems that Consort Mother and your Imperial Father have spoiled you too much! You’re really crazy, really infuriating me!”
Consort Liu De walked up and down in front of Yu Wenling with an angry face. She kept saying,” Even if Jiang Zhennan recovers to be a handsome man, it won’t change his fate of being a jinx. You’re simply courting death by marrying him! Consort Mother will never allow you to marry him!”
Yuwen Ling didn’t listen at all. She still used her previous words to block
Consort Liu De and retorted,
“Mother, two days ago, I said that if Jiang Zhennan were really a jinx, he would have cursed his father, his siblings, and his clansmen to death.
“But look at it now. Other than Jiang Zhennan’s mother, who died from bleeding during childbirth, everyone else is fine. From the looks of it, he isn’t a jinx at all. Why couldn’t Ling ‘er marry him?”
When Consort Liu De heard this, her face turned ashen with anger. She pointed at Yuwen Ling and said angrily,
“I see that you’ve gone crazy and stopped caring about your own life anymore. If that Jiang Zhennan is really a good person and doesn’t have the fate of being a jinx, then you won’t be wronged if you marry him. On the contrary, he’ll be a good candidate.
“However, he, Jiang Zhennan, was destined to be a jinx. He had cursed his biological mother to death the moment he was born. As for whether he had cursed anyone yet, who could guarantee that he would not curse others in the future, especially his wife? Therefore, Ling ‘er, don’t blame Consort Mother for being heartless. Consort Mother will tell you this. Other than Jiang Zhennan, if you want to marry anyone else, Consort Mother will help you fight for it!”
Yuwen Ling immediately became stubborn.” Mother, I’ll tell you this too. Other than Jiang Zhennan, I don’t like any man!”
“You…” Consort Liu De pointed at Yuwen Lings nose. She wanted to scold her, but she didn’t know how to do it. So, she was so angry that she was trembling and on the verge of collapsing!
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Granny Liu immediately went forward and helped Consort Liu to sit down. She patted Consort Liu’s back and advised,”
Consort Liu, please calm down! The princess is still young and hasn’t figured it out yet. We’ll teach her slowly in the future!”
Then, Granny Liu said to Yuwen Ling,” Princess, look at Madam. How angry is she because of you? Princess, you should know that Madam doesn’t want you to marry Jiang Zhennan. This is completely for your own good!
“Madam only has one daughter; you are her lifeblood.
“Since you were young, when has Madam not done everything she could to get whatever you wanted?
“Princess, in this palace, everything Madam did was for you. You couldn’t have angered Madam to such an extent that she fell sick because of Jiang Zhennan, right?”
Yuwen Ling looked at Consort Liu De, whose face had turned pale from anger and whose entire body was weak. She was holding her forehead, and a guilty expression appeared on her face. She said,” Consort Mother, I’m sorry. Ling ‘er shouldn’t have made you angry!’
Seeing her daughter’s expression, Consort Liu De’s expression softened. She sighed and said earnestly,” Ling ‘er, you are my only daughter. You are my life. I can’t wait to present the best things in the world to you, including your future husband. I also want to choose the best man in the world to marry you. I just want you to be happy!
“You’re already of age. If you were in the public, you would have been married long ago. However, Consort Mother can’t bear to part with you, so I want to keep you by Consort Mother’s side for two more years. I also want to pick a young talent and marry you off happily.
“Consort Mother has already inquired about a few young talents from the capital’s aristocratic families and is prepared to let you meet them personally. After that, I will let you choose a suitable husband to marry. Your Imperial Father has also agreed to this matter.
“But you…Why did you suddenly take a fancy to that Jinx of the Heavens, Jiang Zhennan? Are you trying to anger Consort Mother to death?
“What if Jiang Zhennan is really like what Master Xu Yun said? I can’t gamble with your life. Do you know that, silly child? What if he really is a cursed jinx? If you marry him and he kills you, how will your mother survive?
Yuwen Ling lowered her head and wept, not answering Consort Liu Deo
Consort Liu waved her hand and said,” You should think about it first! Consort
Mother is tired and wants to rest for a while!”
Yuwen Ling replied,” Yes, Imperial Mother. Have a good rest!”
After Yuwen Ling left, Granny Liu advised,” Your Majesty, you don’t have to worry. Princess, she will come around!”
Liu Defei shook her head and said in a somewhat pessimistic tone,” Nanny, we all know Ling ‘er’s temper. She won’t be so easily convinced!”
Granny Liu also sighed and said,” Madam, why don’t we summon the Great General into the palace and see what he thinks?”
She heard that Jiang Zhennan already had a fiancée, but it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Besides, if a princess took a fancy to him, wouldn’t he be overjoyed? Therefore, to dispel Yu Wenling’s thoughts, he first had to interrupt all of Jiang Zhennan’s fantasies.
Consort Liu ??????? sighed and said,” Nanny, you’re right! Take my token out of the palace and go see Jiang Zhennan at General Manor!” As a concubine, she could not leave the palace at will.
“Yes, Madam!” Granny Liu ordered.
After Yuwen Ling came out of Consort Liu De’s palace, she was expressionless. She lowered her head as if she was looking at the road, but also as if she wasn’t looking at the road.
At this moment, a vine stretched out from the grass and tripped Yuwen Ling as she passed by.
Before she could react, a branch of a peach tree quickly stretched out and whipped the butt of Yuwen Ling, who had fallen. Then, when someone ran over, the branch quickly stretched back and became an ordinary peach tree branch like before!
“Aiyo! It hurts!”
Yuwen Ling cried out in pain. When the palace maids and eunuchs quickly ran over to help her up, she roared angrily at these people and questioned loudly,” Who whipped me just now? Surrender yourselves!”
“…” They had just arrived, so who could have whipped her?
