<span>Chapter 41: Begging her part 1
<span>Mu Zi Ling secretly gave Lin mama a thumbs up in her heart. Was Lin mama really
<span>that scared that she’d expose her? This really was a tough job for her old bones,
<span>doing so much work.
<span>However, the way Lin mama had spoken was really impressive. Not only had she
<span>conceded defeat and admitted her wrongs, she had made the Empress Dowager
<span>seem high and mighty, as well as drag her into this mess.
<span>The Empress Dowager also caught onto the meanings hidden in Lin mama’s words,
<span>and was delighted that Lin mama had made her seem so high and mighty. She did
<span>not directly me Lin mama, instead, she looked towards Mu Zi Ling like she was
<span>waiting for her to speak.
<span>“That was indeed what had happened.” said Mu Zi Ling simply. She didn’t want to
<span>give more exnations and make the situation worst.
<span>If the Empress Dowager''s servant didn’t know any manners, then it would be the
<span>Empress Dowager who lost face. She knew that the Empress Dowager wouldn’t
<span>lose her face just for a servant, and continue ming her for beingte.
<span>Hearing such simple wordsing out of Mu Zi Ling’s mouth, the Empress
<span>Dowager was displeased.
<span>However, she still looked at Lin mama seriously and said, “You are an old mama
<span>who has served for so many years. How could you still not know the basic rules
<span>and manners? Why are you not thanking the Qi Princess for teaching you yet?!”
<span>Once Lin mama knew that the Empress Dowager would not be ming her, she
<span>was ecstatic. She suddenly kneeled down to Mu Zi Ling and said, “This servant
<span>thanks the Princess for teaching this servant.”
<span>So <span>now<span> Lin mama had dropped her threatening demeanor. She was such a sorry
<span>creature. If she had a tail, she would probably be wagging it right now.
<span>Mu Zi Ling let out a coldugh. So the Empress Dowager wasn’t nning on
<span>ming Lin mama for herck of manners. Did she think that just getting Lin mama
<span>to thank her was enough?
<span>“How could I let you thank me? Lin mama, you’ve probably been in the Royal
<span>Pce for over than ten years. You’d naturally know much more manners than this
<span>Princess. Lin mama, it should be you teaching this Princess.”
<span>You want to use the Empress Dowager to bully ne? You dare bully the soft but fear
<span>the tough? Tsk, I’ll show you that I’m a master you shouldn’t mess with.
<span>“This old servant wouldn’t dare.” said Lin mama with a trembling heart. Mu Zi Ling’s
<span>words made it seem like she didn’t want to end it just like this. Lin mama was so
<span>scared that her legs were turning soft.
<span>“Alright, you are excused,” said the Empress Dowager coldly.
<span>Although Lin mama was a servant, she was still her servant. To watch her servant
<span>beg Mu Zi Ling for mercy was unbearable.
<span>“Of course, this old servant takes her leave.”
<span>When Lin mama heard the Empress Dowager say she could leave, her nervousness
<span>disappeared. It would seem that the Empress Dowager had already fully approved
<span>her. Thank goodness she was clever and had spoken before the Princess.
<span>Mu Zi Ling’s face was full of disdain. What type of master would have the same type
<span> of servants.
<span>If the Empress Dowager had med Lin mama, then she would be admitting that Lin
<span>mama didn’t have basic manners and lose even more face.
<span>Since the Empress Dowager was so conniving, then she would not meddle in the
<span>business of others and cause more troubles for herself.
<span>“Ling’er, you’ve been married for quite some time now. Are you getting used to
<span>everything?” Once Li mama left, the Empress Dowager started talking to her in a
<span>friendly tone again.
<span>“Thank you for worrying about me Empress Dowager. However, the Qi King’s Manor
<span>is my home. There’s no such thing as being used to or not used to. While at home,
<span>you naturally ept everything with good will.”
<span>She basically just said that the Empress Dowager had asked a stupid question and
<span>wasted her time. She was married to the Qi King, so the Qi King’s Manor was her
<span>home. While someone was at home, they’d obviously befortable and happy.
<span>What was there even to get used to?
<span>She was eating well, sleeping well, and living her life like a god.
<span>When the Empress Dowager heard her, her face looked like it couldn’t hold up
<span>anymore. However, she immediately recovered and said, “Since Ling’er is living
<span>well, then this Dowager doesn’t need to worry about you anymore. If Yu’er ever
<span>bullies you, then you cane to this Dowager, this Dowager would give you
<span>justice.
<span>Oh god! The Empress Dowager’s words almost hit her. It was as if she knew that
<span>Long Xiao Yu would bully her, and wanted to be her backup, so she could bring
<span>justice.
<span>If this old Empress Dowager didn’t stab her behind her back, then she would already
<span>be thanking Buddha!
<span>“Empress Dowager, you overthink this. His highness treats this consort really well.
<span> His highness is usually very busy with everyday matters, but this wife is a female,
<span>so she can’t really help him. How could this wife still darein?”
<span>“Ling’er really is fair and considerate. You make this Dowager like you even more.”
<span> Currently, although the Empress Dowager was a bit angry, she couldn’t just explode,
<span>so she conceded to speaking with a fake smile.
<span>“Ling’er, your Eldest Imperial Brother has been feeling a bit unwell these days. None
<span> of the imperial doctors could figure out what was wrong. The Imperial Mother knew
<span>that you excel in medicine, so the Imperial Mother wanted you to go take a look at
<span>your Eldest Imperial Brother.”
<span>Off to the side, the Empress seemed like she couldn’t stand the Empress Dowager
<span>talking to Mu Zi Ling, so she took action of her own.
<span>“What happened? It was only a few days ago that he was fine. Howe he’s sick
<span>now?” said Mu Zi Ling, pretending to be worry.
<span>She was actuallyughing secretlyughing inside. The Empress Dowager had
<span>wasted so much words, yet she still hadn’t gotten to the point. The Empress was
<span>the frank and straightforward one, able to get to the point the moment she opened
<span>her mouth.
<span>Mu Zi Ling had also guessed that the Empress Dowager had wanted her toe
<span>to the Royal Pce because of Long Xiao Li. Even if the Empress Dowager didn’t
<span>invite her, she would’ve stille over here willingly to cure Long Xiao Li.
<span>In Long Xiao Li continued on like this, it was impossible to guess how many more
<span>innocent lives would be taken.
<span>“Well…”
<span>The Empress was getting more embarrassed as she spoke.
<span>Although she really couldn''t stand Mu Zi Ling’s fake expressions, she was still
<span>seeking help from her, so she could only show her manners in front of her.
