Chapter 4
Yes, Your Majesty!
Wang Xiangjun bowed respectfully, I am Wang Xiangjun, at your service, Your Majesty!
Unveil your face and let me see! Lin Beifan said with a smile.
As you command Your Majesty! Wang Xiangjun hesitated slightly, then slowly lifted the veil from her face, revealing a visage as exquisite as a jade plate, a beauty that could topple empires.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
Lin Beifan laughed, Truly a delicate and lovely face! With your charm, you indeed deserve the title of the foremost beauty in the Mo Kingdom! However, what puzzles me is how you, born a commoner, managed to be unmarried?
As the saying goes, a beauty can be a source of trouble!
Being beautiful is not a fault, but without sufficient means to protect oneself, such beauty can attract calamity!
Its because this humble girl is born under the Heavens Doom Star!
Wang Xiangjun said with a sorrowful expression: Since my birth, my mother passed away due to complications in childbirth! When I was three years old, my father also succumbed to illness, leaving me to rely only on my grandmother and two older brothers for support!
But alas, fate did not favor this humble girl! When this humble girl was 7 years old, her grandmother passed away from illness! At the age of 11, her second brother went into the deep mountains to chop wood and was ultimately killed by a huge black bear!
When this humble girl was 12 years old, her elder brother arranged a marriage for her, but within a few days, a disaster befell her family. A passing bandit robbed them of their wealth and silenced them by killing them!
When this humble girl was 13, her elder brother arranged another marriage for her, and within two days, that family also met with misfortune! Unconvinced by superstition, her elder brother arranged yet another marriage, and once again, that family suffered a calamity!
Moreover, from her childhood, any man who intended to get close to this humble girl met with trouble!
It was so, everyone started saying that this humble girl was a Heavens Doom Star, a harbinger of disaster, and they avoided her as if fearing for their lives! Fortunately, she still had her elder brother, who never left her side. But then, two years ago, her elder brother also
Wang Xiangjun wept sorrowfully: He too left me after succumbing to a serious illness!
Lin Beifan listened and was filled with sympathy.
Such a tough fate indeed, jinxing everyone she meets; no wonder she has managed to live safely up to now.
After all, in this rather feudal era, everyone is a firm believer in destiny. Who would want to provoke a calamity star for no reason?
Beauty is important, but life is even more so!
Lin Beifan helped Wang Xiangjun up: So thats how it is, youve suffered for so many years! From today onwards, you shall be my Consort, and I shall be your only kin in this world!
Wang Xiangjun was shocked: But Your Majesty, this humble girl is born under the Heavens Doom Star, I fear I might bring you
Grand General, puzzled, said, Is that all? Theres no other meaning?
Tsk! You big oaf, cant you hear what it means?
The Prime Minister suddenly burst into laughter, stroking his beard contentedly, To have a drink with this old man actually, His Majestys intention is to apologize, understand now?
Ohh~ so thats what it means. This old man didnt catch on for a moment!
The Grand General suddenly realized and burst into hearty laughter, It seems His Majesty still cares about you, knowing he was in the wrong, so he specially sent Eunuch Liu to make amends! Old Xiao, you can rest easy now, right?
Eunuch Liu nodded repeatedly, Thats exactly what His Majesty meant, but some things are not good to say outright!
It seems His Majesty still has me in his heart, now I can be at ease! Its just that back then in court, I contradicted His Majesty, and with His Majesty being young and impetuous, he couldnt step down, which is why I had this calamity! I was indeed in the wrong; if only I had known, I should have chosen another method! The Prime Minister said, somewhat ashamed.
Grand General called out, Old Xiao, indeed the approach needs to change. After all, His Majesty has grown up and has his own opinions! Now that youve been dismissed and are at home, just take a good rest for a few days! Who knows, in a few days His Majesty might call you back!
Youre right, lets drink!
Drink!
The three of them embraced the wine jars and had a grand drunken spree.
Since the Mo Kingdom had already delivered all the promised supplies to the Xia Kingdoms Capital City, fulfilling the trade agreement, the Xia Kingdom troops and laborers stationed at the iron mine immediately withdrew, and the Mo Kingdom promptly sent an army of 200,000 to take their place.
Given the importance of this matter to the Mo Kingdom, the current Crown Prince was dispatched to oversee the affair.
The Crown Prince of Mo Kingdom, gazing upon the long-coveted iron mine that had finally fallen into their hands, ambitiously declared, With this iron mine, our Mo Kingdom will surely rise swiftly and become a great power! And the Xia Kingdom will ultimately be trampled into dust beneath our iron hooves!
Your Highness speaks the absolute truth! The generals of Mo Kingdom revealed joyful smiles.
Begin the excavation immediately! the Crown Prince of Mo Kingdom commanded loudly.
Yes, Your Highness! everyone responded in unison.
Thus, the Mo Kingdoms army and soldiers took up positions in the mine and began the bustling work of extracting the iron ore.
However, just at that moment, the ground began to tremble.
Boom, rumble, rumble.
