Revenge of the Sixth Young Lady

Chapter 78 – Vicious Second Lady Blocking The Way

Coincidentally, Mo Huating had also left the palace, and what was more coincidental was that he also had to pass through this lane to go to his own mansion ahead.

In other words, here was the side entrance of the mansion of Marquis Jing Yuan, and following the roundabout path for a little distance, he could reach the front entrance of the mansion of Marquis Jing Yuan. He would usually ride this way.

He was riding a horse and followed by a few attendants. They did not take up much of the road. The horse had galloped right past him. The rider on the horse was black-clothed. His speed wasn’t fast when he passed Mo Huating, but then he suddenly accelerated the pace. Then, the carriage in the front was overturned and the horse galloped away.

All of this happened in an instant.

Mo Huating didn’t think that this had anything to do with him. What had happened in the palace today already upset him extremely. Of course, he wouldn’t poke his nose into this accident.

However, when Mo Huating saw that familiar petite figure tumbling out of the carriage, his hands involuntarily trembled. He inexplicably clasped the reins in his hand and didn’t relax his grip until he saw Wei Yuewu didn’t hit the wall.

That was her carriage!

He saw that instead of shivering at the wall, she actually handled the matter with such composure and was even able to hit the point. His eyes flashed with traces of deep thought. Such character as hers actually made her more suitable for him than Wei Yan…

“I will report to grandmother when I get to the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang.” Wei Yuewu said coldly. She ignored the coachman and walked toward the end of the lane with Jin Ling. The mansion of Marquis Hua Yang should be a little afar from here. If there was any carriage available, they would hail one and go back to the mansion first.

“Sixth Young Lady, I really did not know that such a thing would happen. Please forgive me, Sixth Young Lady!” Seeing Wei Yuewu decided to report to the Madam Dowager, the coachman got anxious. He disregarded the carriage that was lying on the ground, hurriedly chased after Wei Yuewu and knelt in front of her.

It was widely known in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang that although the Second Lady was in charge of the backyard, the Madam Dowager had the highest prestige. The latter no longer managed affairs these past few years. However, in terms of craftiness, several Second Ladies combined would not match a single Madam Dowager.

“Say those words to grandmother.” Wei Yuewu walked past the coachman unmoved and continued her steps.

“Sixth Young Lady, it’s not me… but…” The coachman was really anxious. If this matter were to be reported to the Madam Dowager, he would definitely not end up well.

The Second Lady and the Second Young Lady were unable even to fend for themselves at present. It was impossible for them to protect him. The accusation that he made decision without asking for approval and almost killed the Sixth Young Lady would be enough for the Madam Dowager to punish him severely.

However, he was also afraid of the Second Lady, so he could not continue with the words on the tip of his tongue. He could only look pitiably at Wei Yuewu, hoping that the Sixth Young Lady would be merciful and let him get away with it.

“If you can explain it before grandmother, I will spare you.” Wei Yuewu stopped but did not turn around. With those words said coldly, she continued forward. Jin Ling followed her a few steps and turned around. She looked at the coachman and sneered, “I heard that the Madam Dowager cares most about Lord Marquis, and Sixth Young Lady is the only first daughter of Lord Marquis.”

These words had underlying meanings. After saying that, Jin Ling hurriedly took a few steps and followed Wei Yuewu towards the end of the lane.

Marquis Hua Yang was also an aggressive person. Although he had left the Sixth Young Lady at her maternal grandparents’ house for so many years, as if he didn’t care about her, nevertheless, the Sixth Young Lady was still the first daughter of the marquis.

If Sixth Young Lady was determined to punish him, then the Second Lady…

The coachman considered for a moment and then looked at Wei Yuewu, who was walking forward elegantly and calmly. He made up his mind. He stood up abruptly and ran forward. “Sixth Young Lady, let me help you find a carriage. I will send you back to the mansion immediately.”

Wei Yuewu nodded. Her wound was slightly split due to the violent jolt of the carriage. Now there was blood flowing out, not much, but enough to make her weak. Blood had already stained her clean sleeve. She felt a little dizzy. She was actually struggling to walk out of the lane.

Jin Ling noticed her bad state, reached out to support her, and followed her footsteps to slowly walk forward.

By this time, the coachman had run out of the lane to find a carriage for Wei Yuewu.

Mo Huating remained where he was. His eyes looked impenetrable as they landed on the light-colored, blood-stained sleeve. His handsome brows furrowed tightly. Again, he redirected his eyes to Wei Yuewu’s unduly slender back with deep consideration.

Indeed, he had never seen a girl with such fortitude. She looked like an exquisite porcelain doll, yet she was actually so resilient that she could still remain calm and composed under those circumstances. How many men could do as well as her? Not to mention she was merely a weak unmarried girl.

Was he really wrong…

Wei Yuewu’s carriage stopped at the corner of the mansion’s entrance. She did not get off directly. This position wouldn’t be seen from the mansion’s entrance. She remained in the carriage and told the coachman to enter first and go to notify Shufei and Huamo with her token.

What had happened to Wei Yan in the palace was enough to drive Lady Li so crazy that she would do anything possible. Even if Wei Yan married Mo Huating in the end, her reputation was completely ruined.

Moreover, Wei Yuewu had also re-estimated Mo Huating. Would such a calculating and cold-blooded person accept this marriage for Wei Yan’s sake despite his unwillingness?

If he had some plan on his mind, Wei Yan would probably be unable to see the engagement fulfilled. In that case, Lady Li would definitely blame her for everything and would even be likely to do something crazy that she normally wouldn’t dare to do.

Fortunately, she had come prepared.

The coachman came out shortly after he entered the mansion. He brought out Shufei’s sachet as a token. Although the coachman had no choice but to stand on her side, Wei Yuewu felt that she still needed to be on guard.

The carriage turned around the corner and appeared at the entrance of the mansion. A servant noticed it and went to report to Lady Li in a flash. When she heard that Wei Yuewu actually returned to the mansion unharmed, Lady Li, in her viciously threatening manners, immediately led a large group of servants out. That bitch! Lady Li was determined to avenge Wei Yan today even if she would offend the old lady.

The wound on Wei Yuewu’s wrist had been rewrapped by Jin Ling in the carriage. It had stopped bleeding by now. However, much of the cuff was stained with blood, which was a very ghastly sight. Anyone could tell that something bad probably had happened to this Sixth Young Lady too.

The Second Young Lady was carried into the mansion when the Third Lady brought her back. Although the Sixth Young Lady walked in by herself, she didn’t seem alright either…

Didn’t they just go to the palace for a banquet? Why did both of them come back in such an unsightly state?

It seemed that something serious was going to happen…

Many servants in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang became subject to intense fear, feeling an oppressive atmosphere pervading the entire mansion.

Wei Yuewu walked past two courtyards when she encountered Lady Li. The latter waved her hand upon seeing the former. Several sturdy old maidservants immediately came to encircle Wei Yuewu and Jin Ling and stopped them on the spot. The rest of the servants were gloating.

The old maidservants guided Wei Yuewu and Jin Ling into a wing room nearby, where the Second Lady was sitting in the head chair. When she saw Wei Yuewu enter, Lady Li slammed her hand heavily on the table and angrily said, “Someone, beat this little bitch who framed her own sister to death.”

As long as she thought about how her daughter, whom she brought up with extreme care, was ruined, Lady Li wished she could tear Wei Yuewu apart. She had been informed first that her daughter had her reputation destroyed and was carried into the mansion. After that, when she received a message sent by Mo Huating, she trembled all over and fury surged in her heart right away.

It was that little bitch who was supposed to be caught in trouble. Why did Wei Yan fall a victim in the end? Wei Yan must be trapped by that bitch.

At this time, Lady Li was determined to take Wei Yuewu’s life. She did not believe that the Madam Dowager would really value this cheap girl.

Moreover, it would be too late even if the Madam Dowager received the news. As long as she insisted that Wei Yuewu framed Wei Yan, could the Madam Dowager avenge for the cheap girl by insisting a life for a life?

This was Lady Li’s plan. Therefore, she had come here immediately with her people to wait for Wei Yuewu to enter.

She was originally in charge of the backyard of this mansion. Even though she didn’t take care of as many affairs as before these days, at least she had enough servants working for her. Hearing Lady Li’s words, those menial old maidservants were going to pull Wei Yuewu over. Jin Ling hurriedly stepped forward to protect Wei Yuewu.

Wei Yuewu’s expression turned cold. She said sternly, “If someone doesn’t want to live, do it as you may!”

Her normally bright eyes had now turned icy-cold. Her bloodthirsty ruthlessness stopped the menial old maidservants from approaching her. They even subconsciously retreated a few steps. They lowered their heads without daring to look at Lady Li’s ferocious face.

“Bitch, how dare you disobey me!” Lady Li struck her hands heavily on the table and stood up.

‘”Second Aunt, I have my father and grandmother to discipline me. I don’t know how I could be charged with being disobedient to you. Moreover, Second Elder Sister disgraced herself of her own accord. Everyone saw what she did in the palace. She disgraced the entire mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. Second Aunt, you came here to find fault with me rather than go to punish Second Elder Sister. Why?”

Wei Yuewu looked coldly at Lady Li. Although her voice was gentle, every word she uttered was sharp. It was Wei Yan who had caused the trouble. It was Wei Yan who had embarrassed the entire mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. Lady Li, however, shifted the blame onto her to protect her own daughter. Was Lady Li doing this because she was sure that no one would stand up for her?

However, after the past few days, Wei Yuewu felt that the Madam Dowager was a bit strange. For sure, the old lady did not have any affection for her. Nevertheless, strangely enough, she wasn’t too harsh with her either. With granny’s warning, Wei Yuewu was confident that the Madam Dowager would have to stand on her side if the matter got out of control.

At the Madam Dowager’s in the inner courtyard.

“Your Ladyship, bad news!” Two maids rushed in, threw themselves on the floor at the door of the main chamber and reported in screams in panic!
