Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Today, Qiao Mai’s performance truly stunned their eyes. The empress kept a stern face until the banquet ended.
Many people were still secretly speculating on how Madam Qiao conjured these things. Some even wanted to ask if she had similar jewelry and wished to have them—they were just too beautiful.
After the banquet, Consort Rui asked Qiao Mai and her family to stay.
“Relax and have a seat. We are family. When we meet privately, there’s no need for formalities.
Qiao Mai took the lead and sat. Consort Rui glanced at her son-in-law and then at Ling’er, nodding approvingly.
“Your family’s Feng Shui is nourishing. Your son is talented and handsome, and your daughter is exceptionally charming.”
“Thank you for the compliment, but I usually don’t like socializing, so I haven’t visited the palace. Please forgive me.”
“No need to be polite. I knew you didn’t like these things, so I didn’t actively invite you to the palace. But now we’ve met, haven’t we?”
“Marrying into the royal family is different from other families. It’s a bit uncomfortable.’
“There’s no choice; there are many rules in the royal family. When I first entered the palace, I wasn’t used to it either.”
“Now that we’ve met, let’s discuss the betrothal gifts?”
“Sure, a royal princess’s dowry is one hundred and twenty carriages.”
“Our two adopted sons also had a betrothal gift of one hundred and twenty carriages. Combining the betrothal gift with the dowry, one hundred and forty carriages doesn’t sound pleasant. Let’s go for a good omen. How about our family gives a betrothal gift of one hundred and sixty carriages?”
Consort Rui was pleased to hear this. She only had one daughter, and her in-laws valuing her was an affirmation.
“Not bad. I will include the betrothal and wedding gifts, making it two hundred and eighty carriages. I’ll send everything back when the time comes.”
“When should we send the betrothal gifts?”
“You should prepare first. The royal family has many matters, so we’ll choose an auspicious day. You can send the betrothal gifts when the wedding is approaching. ”
“We don’t understand these matters; we’ll follow your arrangements.”
The two women sat together, chatting intimately. Yuan Jiaqi and the others listened with their heads bowed.
Later, Consort Rui selected various treasures from her private treasury and gave them to Ling’er.
Seeing that it was getting late, Consort Rui let them leave.
There was no one at the palace gate. The steward still sat upright in front of the carriage, waiting.
Seeing his master coming out of the palace, he quickly drove the carriage forward.
Qiao Mai let the three sit in the carriage. She looked around, a sly smile appearing on her lips.
She told the steward, “Take it slow.”
“Yes, Master!”
At this hour, the streets were empty except for the night watchmen. Even they would only come out at a certain time.
The carriage traveled for about a quarter of an hour when Qiao Mai said, “Stop!”
Yuan Jiaqi nervously asked, “Wife, what’s wrong?”
“We are being followed. The three of you stay in the carriage and don’t move.”
At this moment, Yuan Jiagi and the others regretted not learning martial arts
seriously. They always let Qiao Mai take the lead when something happened,
feeling useless.
Qiao Mai jumped down from the carriage and created a barrier around it with a wave of her hand.
The two horses stood quietly. They knew they didn’t need to move a hoof with the master around.
At this moment, numerous black-clad figures flew from all directions towards the carriage, like bats in the night. Yuan Jiaqi gently lifted the carriage curtain and witnessed this scene.
Qiao Mai stood on the carriage’s roof, looking down from a high vantage point to better protect the people inside.
The black-clad figures rushed towards Qiao Mai, their weapons gleaming in the moonlight. Her eyes emitted a bloodthirsty red light. With a wave of her left hand, a golden light in the shape of an arc swept around her.
Unable to dodge in time, the black-clad figures used their hands and feet to block. They all had their hands and feet severed, emitting miserable cries.
In the silent street, the scene was particularly eerie.
Yuan Jiaqi and the children were dumbfounded. They watched as Qiao Mai effortlessly waved her hand, killing a group of people. It seemed as easy as sweeping the floor.
Looking at the limbs falling from the sky, the three sat in the carriage, gripping their hands tightly.
They had seen killings before, but it was the first time they witnessed Qiao Mai. Assassins were like floods, continuously surging toward her.
They were accustomed to moving forward, and by the time they saw their companions being killed, it was already too late.
It had been a long time since she felt the sensation of cutting flesh. A one-sided battle didn’t give her any satisfaction. She hoped to meet someone evenly matched.
Unfortunately, there was no one here!
A few sharp-eyed individuals turned to escape, but with her cultivation level, who could escape from her? All were killed on the spot.
The steward sat in front of the carriage, almost fainting as he watched this scene. The master was too frightening, killing people without blinking.
Seeing the master so valiant, the steward finally understood why Qiao Mai was so aloof and why she disliked socializing.
Someone like her did not need to accommodate anyone.
“Steward, drive the carriage and go home!”
Qiao Mai returned to the carriage, and the three people quickly assessed her.
“Wife, are you injured?” “Mom, why are you so clean?”
“Mom, are you okay?”
Seeing the three concerned people, Qiao Mai smiled gently.
“They can’t get close to me. Where would the injuries and blood come from? Don’t worry; go home and rest well. Don’t mention today’s events to anyone.”
“Yes, Mom!”
Nanny Jin sat in the back of the carriage, her face pale, tightly biting her lips without uttering a sound.
Qiao Mai glanced at her but remained silent. She believed that someone who had come from the palace wouldn’t be so fragile and would quickly adapt. free(w)ebnov(e)l
Back at home, Nanny Jin took Ling’er to rest, and Chuan’er also left.
Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi returned to their courtyard. “Husband, return to the room and rest.”
“Wife, what are you going to do?”
“I’m going to seek revenge. I never do things passively.”
“The Liu family?”
“Yes!”
“I will wait for your return!”
Qiao Mai glanced at him and disappeared into the night. She had inquired with sheep and the little squirrels. No one had tried to attack the house tonight, so it seemed that those black-clad people were targeting her.
They probably had confirmed she was the one who killed the alliance leader and waited outside the palace for revenge.
Arriving at the Liu residence, Qiao Mai didn’t find the two elders in the backyard, so she searched around the estate and unexpectedly found them in the guest courtyard.
At that moment, the two conversed with Madam Liu’s maternal relatives. “Can we let the matter with Madam Qiao go?”
“The enmity of killing a father and the pain of losing a child are insurmountable.”
Madam Liu regretted escalating the situation, “Her husband is a duke and holds an important position in the court. If anything happens, we won’t escape the government’s pursuit.”
“If we were afraid, we wouldn’t have come. Besides, you’re too late. One hundred assassins are already waiting for her outside the palace gates. I believe she won’t escape tonight.”
Hearing the mention of one hundred people, Madam Liu’s eyes lit up.
She hoped these assassins would kill Madam Qiao. Ideally, her husband and child would meet their demise as well, allowing the Liu family to vent their frustration.
Listening from the rooftop, Qiao Mai thought it was their own fault for not choosing a better path.
She had shown mercy, but if they insisted on dying, she would fulfill their wishes.
In mid-air, Qiao Mai immediately created a barrier around the building. A large hole appeared in the barrier, and with a forceful clap of her hands, the structure collapsed with a resounding crash.
Royal Physician Liu and Madam Liu were crushed instantly. Three skilled martial artists managed to break free from the wreckage, but Qiao Mai sneered, clapping her hands on the barrier again, causing them to be fatally shaken atop the ruins.
Using her psychic abilities to sense the area below, she confirmed no signs of life. Qiao Mai then turned and flew toward the imperial palace..
