Demon Wang's Golden Favorite Fei
Page 29
Now, her beautiful dream is about to come true, but before Murong Qi Qi left she made such a scene. Why does this Murong Qi Qi always ruin her matters? Can it be that the heavens send Murong Qi Qi to strain her?
Seeing Longze Jing Tian’s frost like eyes, Murong Xin Lian’s last string of reasoning collapsed.
“That’s right, I just despise you! I hate you! Aside from having a mother from a noble birth who gave you a noble identity, you are nothing. You are obviously a rubbish, but because of your noble blood, you can become Jing wangfei4. What do you have to get that position? I let Fei Cui spread those rumors. I also told princess many bad things about you. All of these are done by me! I had a hard time, I’ll also let you have a hard time!”
People were stunned by Murong Xin Lian’s hysteria.
The truth came out. No matter how stupid Longze Yu Er is, she understood the whole story. If it wasn’t because Murong Xin Lian inciting, confusing the right and the wrong to let her believe those rumors about Murong Qi Qi, she wouldn’t have become such a big joke today!
A country’s princess was being played by a woman from the illegitimate line. Being used and also lost face in front of the envoys of the three countries. Even more, she let Longze Yu lost the Tai Sui. Because of this she also became the laughing stock of the high society. All of these are things Longze Yu Er couldn’t accept.
“Murong Xin Lian, bengong5 will kill you!”
The just humiliated Longze Yu Er drew out a sword and rushed in Murong Xin Lian’s direction.
The sword’s silver glance stimulated Murong Xin Lian’s nerves and also let her woke up. Heavens! What did she just say? How come she confessed? Why is it that when her eyes met Murong Qi Qi’s, her mind became blank?
Having no time to think all of these through, Murong Xin Lian dodged the oncoming sword. Seeing Murong Xin Lian dodge, Longze Yu Er became angrier. She immediately pushed her inner energy. Her body was immediately surrounded by orange color.
The other has the intention to kill. For self-protection, Murong Xin Lian was also forced to use her inner energy. She was immediately wrapped b a circle of yellow light.
‘Ping, Ping!’
Sword and whip clashed in the air. Two graceful figures were also intertwined in the air. The places where they touch were be ruined. Others screamed and dodged, afraid to being hurt by those two. For a time, the imperial garden was a chaos.
“Rebel, rebel!”
Longze Yu’s beard shook in anger.
“Stop them for zhen6! Quickly!
Longze Yu’s words just fell, the two figures rushed towards the royal concubines. Then a scream was heard. Murong Xue Lian knelt on the ground, holding her belly. Under her legs was bright red.
“Emp, emperor, save chenqie’s7 child!”
“Beloved consort!”
Longze Yu was also anxious. He hastily rushed to Murong Xue Lian and held her hand tightly.
“Imperial physician! Get the imperial physician!”
“Emperor……”
Murong Xue Lian’s face was pale. Her slender left hand clutched her gown. Feeling the warm flow moving in the lower part of her body, Murong Xue Lian was in horror. This child is the root for her to settle down, ah! Nothing must happen!
“Emperor, save our child! I beg you!”
The beauty’s cry and the unstoppable bleeding, made Longze Yu’s expression became livid.
“Darn! Tie them up for zhen!”
Before people could separate Murong Xin Lian and Longze Yu Er, they heard a loud noise. Longze Yu Er felt straight to the ground. Her face color was purple. Around her neck was Murong Xin Lian’s whip.
“Yu Er!”
Duanmu Qing stumbled to Longze Yu Er, but found out that she already passed away!
“Yu Er!”
‘Dong……’
At the other side, Murong Xin Lian also knelt on the ground. Blood stained her lower part of the body, but the blood has already become black.
“My child! My child!”
Murong Xin Lian grabbed the dress on her belly.
“My child!”
For a time, the court was in chaos. All the imperial physicians rushed to the imperial garden. The other people stood at a distance. They didn’t even dare to breath loudly, because Longze Yu’s expression is already very very bad.
“Emperor, pardon us. The prince couldn’t be kept……”
“Emperor, pardon us, princess is gone……
“Emperor, pardon us. Ce wangfei 8 had a miscarriage……”
One after another bad news hit Longze Yu. When she heard that the unborn child couldn’t be kept, Murong Xue Lian exclaimed and then fainted. The imperial physician immediately rushed forward and let her swallow ginseng tablets. After a long time, Murong Xue Lian slowly woke up.
“Beloved consort……”
Longze Yu was very sad for losing the child. He really looked forward for this child to come into this world. He hadn’t thought that the child will be lost.
“Emperor!”
Murong Xue Lian heartbrokenly leaned against Longze Yu’s embrace.
“Emperor, you must definitely take revenge for our child! Definitely take revenge for our child, ah!”

Chapter 58: The Bad News One After Another
* * *
Murong Xue Lian kept shouting revenge. Her eyes are glaring full of hate at Duanmu Qing. Why? Why is the unlucky one her? Why is her child that she tried so hard to protect for six months gone and Duanmu Qing is unscathed?
“Good! Beloved consort, be assured. Zhen1 will give justice to you and your child!”
Longze Yu’s mood is very terrible. All bad things stacked together. Here he hadn’t appeased Murong Xue Lian yet, when there Duanmu Qing began to cry.
“Yu Er, my Yu Er. Wake up, ah! Wake up quickly, ah!”
Duanmu Qing held Longze Yu Er’s body and cried loudly.
“Yu Er, Yu Er…….”
Just in one hour, he lost two children. Longze Yu couldn’t help but look at Murong Xin Lian angrily. Everything is because of her! If it wasn’t because of her, Longze Yu Er wouldn’t die. Murong Xue Lian also wouldn’t have a miscarriage!
Sensing the killing intent in Longze Yu’s eyes, Murong Xin Lian climbed to Longze Yu and kowtowed: “Emperor, I’m innocent! I also lost a child. That’s your first grandchild, ah!”
Murong Xue Lian’s words let Longze Yu’s gaze shift to the long trail of blood behind her. That blood is not red like Murong Xue Lian’s but dark. It seemed that there’s some more to it!
Longze Yu didn’t believe Murong Xin Lian. Before he didn’t hear anything about an imperial grandson. How come there’s now suddenly an unborn imperial grandson? Immediately Longze Yu let the imperial physician inspect Murong Xin Lian’s body. He wanted to know the truth!
The imperial physician stroked his beard while checking the pulse for Murong Xin Lian. After a while, he changed to the right hand. After a while again, the imperial physician walked to Longze Yu and knelt down.
“Emperor, Jing wang cefei2 took medicine for abortion. That’s why she miscarriage. Besides this drug is strong. Ce wangfei hurt her body. I’m afraid that she won’t be able to get pregnant in the future anymore……”
“Medicine for abortion?”
Not only Longze Yu, Murong Xin Lian was also in stunned.
What did she eat? Why is it like this? Murong Xin Lian forgot the pain on her body and tried hard to remember everything that happened after she entered the palace. At the end, she remembered the empress rewa
rding her dessert and wine!
“It’s you! It was you, isn’t it?”
Murong Xin Lian struggled to get on her feet. Her finger trembled when pointing at Duanmu Qing: “I only ate the dessert and wine you rewarded. It’s definitely you! Right? How can you be so heartless? Why……?”
Murong Xin Lian’s words incensed Duanmu Qing’s anger. She stood up and slapped Murong Xin Lian.
“Who do you think you are to dare to speak like this to bengong3! Bengong didn’t even pursue the charge of you murdering the princess. You actually dare to frame bengong? Servants, drag this bitch down for bengong!”
“The empress dowager has arrived…….”
Just at this moment, a group of people escorted a grey haired old lady in.
“Empress mother, why did you come over?”
Seeing Shangguan Fei Yan, Longze Yu immediately went to greet her.
“Aijia4 heard that some things happened and come over to take a look.”
Seeing the blood on the ground, Shangguan Fei Yan frowned.
“What happened?”
“Empress mother, you need to get justice for chenqie5!”
Duanmu Qing knelt down in front of Shangguan Fei Yan and cried hysterically.
“Yu Er died, empress mother!”
“What?”
Only after hearing this Shangguan Fei Yan saw the lifeless body of Longze Yu Er on the ground. Immediately her expression changed.
“What happened? Who is so cruel to kill aijia’s Yu Er?”
“Imperial grandmother, asking you to get justice for granddaughter in law! Asking you to get justice to your great grandchild!”
Seeing Duanmu Qing being the thief crying thief, Murong Xin Lian also knelt in front of Shangguan Fei Yan. Her whole body was covered in blood. Her face was pale because of the miscarriage. She looked very pitiful.
After Shangguan Fei Yan understood what has happened, the cane in her hand hit the ground hard.
“Investigate! Investigate throughout for aijia! Wu Ji, you take charge!”
The empress dowager personally commanded Shangguan Wu Ji to take charge of the investigation. Duanmu Qing didn’t say anything. The four great families; she came from Duanmu family, behind Murong Xue Lian there’s Li family. As for Bai family, they have always just only been merchants. Shangguan Wu Ji is then the most suitable candidate.
Just in a moment, Shangguan Wu Ji already found the palace maid who send the dessert and wine to Murong Xin Lian, but she had already been silenced. The whole atmosphere became more heavy because of the palace maid’s death.
The person Duanmu Qing sent to send the dessert and wine to Murong Xin Lian is dead. People couldn’t help but suspect Duanmu Qing.
“Empress, what’s going on?”
Although Shangguan Fei Yan is over fifty years, but her prestige is still there.
“Empress mother, chenqie doesn’t know. Someone must’ve definitely framed chenqie.”
Duanmu Qing also didn’t expect that the outcome will be like this, but she really didn’t do anything, ah!
“It’s definitely you!”
Murong Xin Lian began to cry.
Just the thought that because of Duanmu Qing, she won’t be able to get pregnant ever again, Murong Xin Lian was full of hate till her teeth clattered. Even if Longze Jing Tian dotes on her very much, but not being able to have children, she won’t have a thing to fall back on. Moreover, the disgust that Longze Jing Tian has for her is so obvious. In the future, she won’t have good days anymore on Jing wangfu6
“You don’t have children, so you’re jealous that I’ve become pregnant. That’s why you can’t tolerate him!”
Murong Xin Lian’s lips trembled and she was very emotional.
“Just now I saw with my own eyes how princess hurt imperial noble consortniangniang7 which led to her miscarriage. Now you harmed me so I lost the child. It must be because you can’t see our Murong household be well. That’s why you used underhanded means to kill! It’s definitely like this!”
Not waiting for people to understand, Murong Xin Lian rushed to Duanmu Qing. She grabbed Duanmu Qing. She rolled with Duanmu Qing on the ground and twisted into a ball.
“Presumptuous! It’s obviously you who killed my Yu Er! You’re just too vicious!”
Duanmu Qing also didn’t show weakness, grabbed Murong Xin Lian’s hairs and teared at it.
“Presumptuous! Really presumptuous!”
An empress and a wangfei8 are now like abandoned wives shouting on the streets. Really shameful! Longze Yu’s face became red from anger.
“Separate them! Separate!”
Don’t know if it was Duanmu Qing who was unlucky or what, when the two were separated, Duanmu Qing stepped on Murong Xin Lian’s gown. Along with the two palace maids, the four fell down. Duanmu Qing was the unluckiest. She was pressed down by three people above her.
“Aiya……”
Murong Xin Lian’s knee just happened to touch Duanmu Qing’s belly. The next moment, Duanmu Qing felt pain in her belly. Immediately two hands covered her belly, but it was too late. A warm liquid streamed out along her thigh.
“My child. My child!”
Seeing such a scene, Duanmu Qing was in daze.
“Imperial physician, imperial physician! Come quickly. Save my child!”
Duanmu Qing being pregnant surprised the crowd. Originally she wanted to stabilize the foetus before telling Longze Yu, but such an accident happened in the middle.
“Niangniang, don’t grief too much……”
After the imperial physician checked the pulse for Duanmu Qing, he shook his head. Just a few words broke Duanmu Qing’s last hope.
“No! My son, ah……”
The child she hoped to get for so many years was gone in just a moment. Duanmu Qing couldn’t accept this fact. She shook her head and screamed: “No……”

Chapter 59: Cohabiting Before Marriage (1)
* * *
The supposed to be very lively Chongyang palace feast, because of the death of one princess and the miscarriages of three imperial females became very strange. Smell of blood entered the people’s noses. The wind also became biting. The whole scene was very quiet. So quiet that it became somewhat scary.
“Wangye1 I’m tired.”
Just then, Murong Qi Qi softly spoke: “Let’s go back…….”
“Alright!”
Feng Cang saw from Murong Qi Qi’s face that she is tired. He held her hand and said goodbye to Shangguan Fei Yan.
“Please return, Nan Lin wang. When princess Zhao Yang marry, aijia2 will definitely personally send her off!”
Shangguan Fei Yan waved her hand somewhat tired.
A royal scandal was seen by a wangye of another country. No matter how you see it, her face can’t be held up. Letting them go back is better, lest to let them find out the truth. If these people know that royals are killing each other, then Bei Zhou country will laugh till they lost their teeth.
Out of the palace, Murong Qi Qi became a lot more relaxed. Even breathing became more easy.
“Miss!”
Seeing that Murong Qi Qi came out, Su Yue and Su Mei immediately went forward and greeted.
“Let’s go!”
Murong Qi Qi went on the carriage. She didn’t expect that Feng Cang will follow her.
“Qing Qing, why don’t you come and live at with me?”
“Does wangye want to cohabit before marriage?”
Murong Qi Qi removed a hai
rpin. Hair fell like loose like waterfall.
Really tired! Although this ‘Autumn Flower’ is really beautiful, but those gold are really too heavy. If she had known that this crown will be on her head, she would’ve designed it more light weighted.
“Cohabiting before marriage? This sentence is not bad!”
Feng Cang came nearer, lifted some hair and sniffed it.
“I don’t have a problem. Don’t know what Qing Qing think of it?”
“Not good!”
Murong Qi Qi withdraw her hair from his hand and sat on the other side.
“Wangye, I want to go back to the prime minister’s residence. Today was so busy. I’m tired. After the marriage, wangye can see me every day. Now, asking wangye to leave. After all men and women have differences. Etiquettes are indispensable!”
Murong Qi Qi’s words were so upright, making it that Feng Cang can only laugh bitterly. Originally he thought that after what happened at the palace, little wangfei3 will accept him. He didn’t expect, ah……that there also will be a day when he is rejected. He is actually being ‘driven’ out of the carriage by Murong Qi Qi.
Looking at Murong Qi Qi’s carriage slowly fading away, Feng Cang heard a chuckle around him. It’s Ru Yi. His face was red, but he didn’t dare to laugh out loudly.
“Laugh, don’t suffocate to death…….”
“Hahahaha!”
Not waiting for Feng Cang to finish speaking, Ru Yi hunched down with his hands on his belly. He laughed out loud. Even tears came out.
“Wangye……. hahaha……wangfei is really too cute……hahaha……if those misses in Bei Zhou gets to know this……. hahaha……. wangye, your fame, ah…….”
“Are you very happy that your wangye has been rejected?”
Seeing the tears in Ru Yi’s eyes, Feng Cang smiled while shaking his head.
Remembering Murong Qi Qi’s smile like flower and her faint sense of alienation, Feng Cang said: “I’d like to let my fame go into ashes, just to get the beauty to smile……”
Back at Cui Zhu yuan4, Murong Qi Qi let the people retreat and only let Su Yue and Su Mei stay.
