Revenge of the Sixth Young Lady

Chapter 204 – Disputes In The Carriage

With those words, Wei Yuewu made an excuse for herself.

“What happened?” Yan Huaijing raised his eyebrows, and his long and narrow eyes hooked up into a charming curve.

Wei Yuejiao was even more infatuated. She stared at Yan Huaijing almost in a daze. The maid beside her pulled her several times, but she did not react.

Wei Yuewu smiled brightly, but she pursed her lips in her heart. She did not believe that this powerful heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State really did not know anything. “Eldest Sister was accidentally harmed by a servant, and her face was hurt!”

“Eldest Sister and Sixth Sister argued. Sixth Sister’s dog hurt Eldest Sister’s face. Eldest Sister is not in good condition!” Wei Yuejiao said at the right time. She couldn’t help but interrupt. What she meant was that Wei Yuewu had hurt Wei Fengyao’s face and Wei Yuewu had malicious intentions.

“The heiress-apparent’s face was hurt?” It was unclear who Yan Huaijing was asking, because there were two young ladies answering him.

Wei Yuewu consciously shut her mouth. She didn’t want to answer if possible. Yan Huaijing had never been easy to deal with.

“Yes, Eldest Sister’s face was badly injured. If not treated carefully, it might be completely ruined. If it wasn’t for Sixth Younger Sister…Eldest Sister wouldn’t actually be like this.” Wei Yuejiao would certainly not miss the opportunity to talk to Yan Huaijing and discredit Wei Yuewu.

“Wasn’t the heiress-apparent’s face harmed by a servant?” Yan Huaijing narrowed his eyes with interest. This was the first time his gaze had landed on Wei Yuejiao.

“No, it’s…” Seeing that Yan Huaijing noticed her, Wei Yuejiao was overjoyed and hurriedly said.

Halfway through her words, she saw a guard walk out from behind Yan Huaijing. The cold sword in his hand pressed against her throat, causing her body to collapse in fear. She fell to the ground with a thud, and her entire body started to tremble.

The sword, however, was like a shadow. It followed down and kept pointing at her throat.

“How dare you offend His Heir-apparent?” The guard shouted.

“I…I didn’t!” Wei Yuejiao replied while trembling. She was so frightened that she almost fainted. Although she had grown up at the border and learned some of the boldness of the women there, she was just a young lady in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. She did not even see a sword on normal days, let alone having one against her throat like this.

Wei Yuewu was speechless. She looked at Yan Huaijing, whose expression was still gentle. She told herself in her heart that this was a monster who was good at disguising himself!

“Cut her hair as a punishment!” The clear voice carried a hint of mellowness, but it made Wei Yuejiao feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

“Ah!” Wei Yuejiao let out a miserable scream and held her head. A strand of hair was cut off her head, and that part of her hair looked jagged in length.

The guard swiftly retracted his sword and stood behind Yan Huaijing. If Wei Yuejiao wasn’t sitting on the ground with her hair disheveled, it would make people think that everything just now was an illusion.

“Is the heiress-apparent alright?” Yan Huaijing asked gracefully. His handsome eyes fell on Wei Yuewu’s face. Anyone could tell that he was speaking with Wei Yuewu.

Wei Qiufu secretly sighed and carefully walked away to avoid blocking Wei Yuewu. She could not believe the rumors that the heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State was as elegant as jade anymore!

“I…Eldest Sister should be fine! Princess Nan’an is still dealing with this matter!” Wei Yuewu had no choice but to reply.

“Sixth Miss Wei, are you alright? I remember saving you several times. Before Marquis Hua Yang comes to thank me, you had better be careful of your own safety.” Yan Huaijing paused and said lazily.

“Thank you, Your Heir-apparent!” Wei Yuewu felt aggrieved. Although she secretly rolled her eyes, she had no choice but to thank him again.

It was as if every time she saw him, he would never forget the gratitude she owed him for saving her life. Well, he might as well put a sign on her head to show that she was saved by him.

Wei Yuewu could only express her helplessness towards this monstrous heir’s evil taste.

This seemed to make Yan Huaijing satisfied. He said indifferently to Wei Qiufu who was standing aside. “Fourth Miss Wei, is this also a lady from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang? Go back and tell your Madam Dowager that she really needed to be disciplined!”

After saying that, he led his men inside with Prince Nan’an Mansion’s steward.

“Yes…I will convey Your Heir-apparent’s words to grandmother!” Wei Qiufu replied respectfully behind him. She looked helplessly at Wei Yuejiao, who was still sitting on the ground with a pale complexion. Her behavior was truly not as dignified as that of a young lady from a noble family.

Sure enough, she was a concubine-born daughter. No matter how capable Concubine Dong was, she couldn’t change the fact that she used to be a maid, and the daughter she raised was really a laughing joke.

She asked the maid to help Wei Yuejiao to the side. Yan Huaijing’s carriage slowly drove away to make way for their carriages.

“Fifth Younger Sister, how about you and I ride in the same carriage?” Wei Qiufu looked at Wei Qiuju who had been dodging and asked.

Wei Qiuju had been following the crowd all this way, and she was even more afraid of Wei Qiufu. However, she was also afraid of Wei Yuewu now. When the incident happened suddenly, she hurriedly admitted that she had an affair with the Heir-apparent of Prince Nan’an. As she restored her senses now, she was filled with shame and indignation.

She felt very embarrassed and was also thinking about whom to ride with along the way. It seemed that there was no one else but Wei Yuejiao.

She would inevitably be mocked and ridiculed by Wei Yuejiao, who was arrogant and overbearing. However, Wei Qiuju felt that compared to Wei Qiufu and Wei Yuewu, Wei Yuejiao was the most suitable one. She was just afraid that Wei Yuejiao would refuse to take the same carriage with her.

Seeing that Wei Qiufu was inviting her, she didn’t dare to refuse. She agreed and followed Wei Qiufu into the carriage in the front in grievance.

Wei Yuewu smilingly watched the two of them get into the carriage before turning around and getting into the carriage behind.

In the carriage, Wei Yuejiao was already sitting there. Although she looked coldly at Wei Yuewu, she did not make any trouble.

Compared to Wei Yuejiao, Wei Yan’s temperament was indeed much weaker. No wonder when Wei Yuejiao and Wei Yan confronted each other back then, Wei Yan, as the first daughter, was repeatedly defeated.

Of course, Marquis Hua Yang was one of the reasons, but Wei Yuejiao herself was also an element.

The carriage set off and slowly moved forward. The carriage became strangely quiet. The puppies had already been placed in Prince Nan’an Mansion. They would be sent back after they were re-examined.

The maids sat beside their respective young ladies with clear boundaries. After glancing at each other, they all lowered their heads.

“Sixth Younger Sister, father is going back to the capital!” Wei Yuejiao suddenly broke the strange silence in the carriage and her gaze fell on Wei Yuewu. She did not believe that the news would not stir up the slightest ripple.

“Grandmother has mentioned it before!” Wei Yuewu glanced at Wei Yuejiao and smiled. She said calmly, but her heart was cold. She really did not have any feelings for this father. Only others constantly reminded her that she was Marquis Hua Yang’s daughter.

“When father comes back, I will ask him to thank the Heir-apparent of Yan for you. I hope that you will stay away from him in the future.” Wei Yuejiao snorted coldly, as if Wei Luowen would do whatever she said.

“Is His Heir-apparent related to you?” Wei Yuewu raised her eyebrows and leaned back. Her gaze fell on Wei Yuejiao’s hair that had been tidied but still looked messy and she smiled slightly.

Such a smile and gaze seemed like a provocation to Wei Yuejiao. Thinking that she had actually made a fool of herself in front of Wei Yuewu, the suppressed fire in her heart burned fiercely. She almost couldn’t help but want to slap Wei Yuewu and knock off the hateful smile on her face.

“Don’t daydream about him. With me here, father won’t allow you to get involved with the heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State!” Wei Yuejiao said hatefully, but she didn’t dare to make a move. Her mother had just sent a letter that repeatedly told her to get along well with Wei Yuewu. She had to make people think that she and Wei Yuewu were close sisters.

“Did Third Elder Sister say the opposite?” Wei Yuewu didn’t buy her words. She actually raised her eyes to squint at her and replied disdainfully.

Wei Yuejiao didn’t expect that Wei Yuewu would not only refuse to compromise, but also dare to mouth back. She was so furious that she couldn’t suppress her anger any longer and was about to stand up…

“Miss!” Seeing that Wei Yuejiao was about to get up and lose her temper, Jinzhu hurriedly grabbed her hand and said anxiously.

Wei Yuejiao gritted her teeth and glared at Wei Yuewu hatefully. However, she did not stand up in anger. She only said coldly, “Wei Yuewu, do you think father will care about you?”

“I don’t know if father cares about me, but I know that father definitely doesn’t care about you!” Wei Yuewu smiled and took a handkerchief from Jin Ling. She slowly wiped her hands and her beautiful eyes shone. Not only was she unhurt by Wei Yuejiao, she also behaved in a leisurely manner.

“Father has been pampering me for so many years, different from you, who were thrown into some unknown corner to die on your own.” Wei Yuejiao said proudly.

“So what? At least my identity is a legitimate daughter. You’re just a concubine-born daughter.” Wei Yuewu smiled and said softly, provoking her quietly.

“Wei Yuewu, you just wait. I’m going to become a legitimate daughter soon.” Wei Yuejiao was really mad. There wasn’t any outsider at this moment, so she couldn’t help but shout angrily.

“Is that so? But why did I hear that father and grandmother are already looking for a husband for you? I heard that it’s a good match. That man is handsome, and he is also talented. He was number three in the imperial examination last year and is very handsome. However, he is only a scholar from a poor family. If you marry him, I’m afraid you will have to live a hard life for some time. However, this does match your status.”

Wei Yuewu said leisurely, as if she was watching a joke.

“Nonsense!” Wei Yuejiao trembled with anger. So, what if he was number three in the imperial examination? He was just a poor scholar. If she really became Marquis Hua Yang’s legitimate daughter, she could even marry a prince. How could she be willing to marry a poor scholar?

“You can ask around and then you will know if I’m talking nonsense. I heard that this man is very romantic. He and Second Elder Sister also had a story. But Second Elder Sister is Second Uncle’s legitimate daughter, so it’s impossible for her to marry him.” Wei Yuewu shook her head and sighed.
