CHAPTER 30

Hadn’t Married yet the Husband Already Dead

“Bold, how dare you look at Consort G.o.ddess like that?” a maid standing beside the woman angrily berated.

Jing Yue lowered her head, heart filled with anger; growing that kind of face yet didn’t allow people to see; why on earth did you grow it?

“Ninth Huang Shu, where did this girl come from? What is her name?” the woman sitting high above carried an odd look in her eyes as she examined Jing Yue up and down; Jing Yue suddenly felt all her hair stood on the end. Why did she feel this Imperial Consort was a bit strange?

“My name’s Jing Yue.” Jing yue lifted her eyes to look at Imperial Consort and spoke and then remembered that she was not allowed to look, she hastily lowered her head again.

“Presumptuous! You dare said ‘I’ without any polite honorific, really is someone without the least bit of education!” the palace maid standing beside Imperial Consort once again berated Jing Yue. Jing Yue, even with her good temperament, also couldn’t endure any longer.

“G.o.ddess, I am only a rude girl from inside the mountain; these rules inside the palace, I don’t have even the slightest understanding. If I somehow made offense in some area, also ask G.o.ddess for much forgiveness. Don’t know whether this considered wrong or not; but the Emperor hasn’t speak yet; you, a small maid had better closed your mouth!”

“You!” that maid was a favorite maid at Imperial Consort’s side; whoever met her still had to show some courtesy; didn’t expect this time she would be berated in the face of so many people.

“That will do.” The Emperor who had been silent from the beginning finally lifted his hand and spoke. That Emperor was probably about to be thirty years old; he bore an examining gaze to size Jing Yue up until he finally changed the direction of his gaze toward Xiao Chen and said: “ChenEr, this time, why did you bring this girl into the palace?”

“Emperor Brother’s* joking, younger brother brought YueEr to the palace naturally to ask Emperor Brother to bestow a marriage.” Xiao Chen coldly stood still, the words he said were ice-cold without any waves; pitch black eyes directly clashed with the Emperor’s.

The Emperor slightly narrowed his eyes to look at Xiao Chen and said: “If you want to take a concubine, you can directly bring her into your fu; there is no need to ask for marriage bestowal that kind of big events.”

“Emperor Brother, you spoke wrong; I don’t want to take concubine, I want to marry her as a proper Fei.” The corner of Xiao Chen’s mouth was hooked into a chilly curvature; the eyes that looked straight into the Emperor’s carried a strong deadly intent to kill. The hall quieted down strangely because of Xiao Chen’s words.

The Emperor hadn’t speak yet; Imperial Consort’s face actually cooled down, white hand angrily pointed at Jing Yue and said: “This woman didn’t have any status, didn’t have any background, didn’t understand the least bit of etiquettes or rules, which part of her deserve to be with you!?” the intention to attack in those words made Jing Yue’s eyes went cold.

“Consort G.o.ddess, you think the person I am right now still care about any status, any background? If there really is someone with status and background; Emperor Brother, you will let me marry her?” the corner of Xiao Chen’s mouth was hooked up as he sneered. His eyes were completely cold as he looked at the two people sitting high above.

“Xiao Chen, what kind of rubbishes

are you talking!” the Emperor’s inverse scale** seemed to be touched by Xiao Chen’s words, his eyes widened as he glared furiously at Xiao Chen.

“I come to the palace just to tell you, this person will be my Ninth Huang Fei; regardless of whether you people agree or not, I’ve decided to marry her.” Xiao Chen unyieldingly stood still; the arrogance in those words almost made Jing Yue clapped her hands loudly; simply too mighty, too domineering!

“Do you still put me this Emperor Brother in your eyes!?” the Emperor pounded the table and stood up; that furious glare toward Xiao Chen made Jing Yue suspicious; in the next seconds, would the Emperor give a decree to chop Xiao Chen?

Cannot ah…….. She hadn’t married yet the husband already dead……..

Didn’t it mean she got deceived***?

—–

* 皇兄 (huáng xiōng) : Emperor brother; the way the emperor refer to himself as an older brother; but I would not use Huang Xiong as I’ve decided in the earlier chapter that the term I’ll use are only Huang Shu and Huang Fei; actually there are a lot of new term in this chapter such as these three I wrote down here plus Imperial Consort (贵妃, Guìfēi). Also when Xiao Chen said younger brother towards the emperor, he actually said 臣弟(Chén dì) instead of弟弟(dìdì), they both means younger brother but the first one is the respectful way to address himself towards the emperor; Jing Yue was berated also because of this, she should not say ‘I’ (我, wǒ), and should refer herself as 臣女(chén nǚ/ I might get the word 臣wrong for this one)

** 逆鳞 (nì lín) : Inverse scale; term to say something that rubbed you the wrong way/ your soft spot which will angered you if it was touched.

*** 坑爹 (kēngdiē) : literally means ‘trap your father’, it means something related to getting deceived, getting tricked or cheated.

So, as I said, four chapters a week…., two today, two on Fridays…..
