Chapter 300 - Royal Visit III
"It seems her highness knew about my Fiancee?" Lory smiles at her.
Qian Mu Ting a little bit flustered "I think a lot of people knew about Lord Long Ming, afterall he is very famous I don't think no one in the world who haven't heard his name" she said with a gentle smile, it's true she does admire Zhao Li Xin everyone only singing praise about him and many people fear him, he is like an immortal stand above humankind how could she does not admire him.
But then she heard about him taking consort from a lowly birth woman she have to admit she was very disappointed, a man like him could marry any women he wants but why must he choose someone like her who does not just have a low background she even a wasted who couldn't cultivate, it's hard for Qian Mu Ting to accept it perhaps she would feel better if Zhao Li Xin married with someone who has excellent background and also talented cultivator, someone like Lao Min Na her brother savior or Nan Yu Wei the Holy Lady from Sacred Mountain Peak.
"Her highness you seem...trouble, may I be bold to ask what's bothering you?" Lory put down the teacup and the maid hand her a wet cloth to clean her hand.
Qian Mu Ting feel hesitant but then she braces herself "I'm sorry if I offended you but is it true you were a maid before?" she asked with a worried look.
The maid who served Lory glance at Qian Mu Ting with upset looks, Lory smiles calmly "I am..." she replied without hesitating.
Qian Mu Ting annoyed when she saw no shammed or awkwardness in Lory's face bit she maintain her composure than she innocently asks again "They said...you can't cultivate too?"
The maids face turn red from anger, how dare she humiliated their Mistress, their Lord would cut that woman tongue if he was here, they all glare viciously at Qian Mu Ting and her maids, Qian Mu Ting shuddered when everyone threatened her with there gaze but she can't back down right now she wants to remind that woman that she is not comparable with Zhao Li Xin.
Lory's face remains unperturbed "I am" she answers with a calm smile. Lory calmness amazed the maids inside the room, they never seen Lory interact with outsiders before so they anxious how would Lory handle the princess who was used with scheming and lying.
"What do you implied you're highness?" Lory tilted her head with a sweet smile plastered on her face.
Lory calm only make Qian Mu Ting restless, she unconsciously clenches her hand under her wide sleeve "It must be hard to be Long Ming fiancee, many women crave for your position, there's a lot of powerful and beautiful women out there that would kill to get that position"
"Oh, I know what you mean in fact I met a few of them" Lory stroke her cheeks as if she just remember something.
Qian Mu Ting sneer inwardly but it didn't show on her face "Don't you feel worried?" she pretend to be a concern.
Lory giggles like a little girl "I would, if only Li Xin didn't kill them, burn them or discard them before I start to worry" Lory cover her giggles with her sleeve elegantly.
The maids also stifle when they hear what Lory said, with there Lord temperament why would Mistress need to worry, the Lord will get rid anything and everything who stand on his way and the Mistress, not to mention he also very clingy with the Mistress, his probability to be seduced by other women is close to negative.
Qian Mu Ting face turn dark, she heard what Zhao Li Xin had done to every woman who dares to approach her even Tang Mei Yi who is rumored to be close with him for years is killed by him even Lu Yao also dead in his hand, chills running to her spine when her maid describe her how Zhao Li Xin killed them.
"You're highness, what do you think my fiancee need?" Lory suddenly asks "A woman with a great background, a woman with wealth or a woman with powerful cultivation or perhaps all of them in one but you're highness you forgot he already has enormous power, infinite wealth and family background? he wouldn't throw away his title as a Prince if he thought a background is worthy" lory sips her tea to moist her throat, Qian Mu Ting faces turn ashen she can't deny Lory's words.
"He doesn't need a woman to give something who already his, so you're highness you don't have to worry Zhao Li Xin knew my worth and I know mine, you don't have to understand you're highness you just need to accept it" Lory make solemn smile than she takes another sip.
Qian Mu Ting face turn stiffed she barely can't maintain her calm demeanor, that woman reminds her, no he warns her not be delusional and accept the fact that Zhao Li Xin only want one woman in his life, she told her Zhao Li Xin didn't care with background, power whatsoever he doesn't need woman to give what he needs and if he needs something there's only one woman who can give it to him, that is the woman who sits calmly in front her with annoying smile on her face.
"I'm...I'm glad to hear that...." Qian Mu Ting smile who didn't reach her eyes.
"Thank you, do you want to stay for dinner, it would be an honor for me" Lory courteously asked.
Qian Mu Tin contemplating for a second, then she lifts her head "Unfortunately I have something to do, Miss Luo I hope you don't mind"
"Of course not your highness, let me send you off" Lory bow slightly.
"Please" Qian Mu Ting smile kindly.
Lory escort Qian Mu Ting to leave the manor, they walk side by side in a comfortable distance while their maid follows behind them.
"Its a nice hairpin, is that emerald or jade?" Qian Mu Ting suddenly asks.
Lory unconsciously touch her hairpin "I don't know, I'm just wearing it because it looks beautiful"
Qian Mu Ting secretly scoffed, no wonder she's a commoner she might never see precious stone before, she's lucky Lord long Ming fond with her but for how long? she wonders what would this vixen do when Long Ming eventually bored with her.
"I never pay attention to my jewelry but if you wonder, my favorite is always blue Saphire" Lory make playful smile.
"Why don't you asked Lord Long Ming, are you worry he might not fulfill your wish?" Qian Mu Ting said casually but Lory could hear her mockery behind her words.
Lory chuckles lightly "He will but it's fine, Just because I want it doesn't mean it has to be mine isn't it" Lory stare at her with a meaningful gaze, Qian Mu Ting suddenly becomes flustered as if Lory could see through her heart, she suddenly lowers her head down.
The front gate opened by the guard keeper, at the outside, a few soldiers had waiting for Qian Mu Ting they kneel on the ground at the same time when they saw her arrived, a lavish carriage stop in front on the stairs to the front gate, the maid lifts the curtain for Qian Mu Ting to enter.
Lory cupped her fist and bow gracefully "Please send mine and Long Ming regards to the Empress and the Emperor for their kind concern"
Qian Mu Ting clenches her fist, Lory told her that she and Zhao Li Xin knew they real attention so Lory gives her warning for not crossing the line, Qian Mu Ting can barely maintain her gentle facade, she nods her head slightly and enter the carriage in haste.
Lory watches the line of soldiers and big lavish carriage disappear in a distance, she hopes Qian Mu Ting understands, she doesn't want Qian Mu Ting to be hurt for another man's greed.
Qian Mu Ting a little bit flustered "I think a lot of people knew about Lord Long Ming, afterall he is very famous I don't think no one in the world who haven't heard his name" she said with a gentle smile, it's true she does admire Zhao Li Xin everyone only singing praise about him and many people fear him, he is like an immortal stand above humankind how could she does not admire him.
