The Princess And The Lord

"Listen what people said about you, they all say you are a loose woman, whor*, what kind of woman break-in into a man's house and tries to seduce someone's husband under his wife's nose, you are stupid - shameless woman and they all laugh at me for not being able to teach my daughter, even Yang Qiou Ru's matter becomes a talk in the city, people used to not dare to speak openly about your sister, but now because of you they all laugh at your older sister even the Gu family good reputation is implicated now! do you know what trouble you gave to the Yang family huh!" The governor spat out his anger relentlessly, never in million years he would have thought that his reputation will be destroyed not at the hands of his enemies or political rivals but by his own daughter.

Yang Qiou Xi's face turned from white to green, she couldn't believe how things turned out this way, it should not be like this, what should she do now?

"And you! what are you doing, why don't you stop your master when she acts stupid, what's the point of having you?!" This time Governor Yang took out his anger on Yang Qiou Xi's personal maid.

The young maid quickly knelt on the floor and repeatedly hit her forehead against the floor until she bleed  "Sorry master, please forgive this slave, please forgive me!" her voice shook violently.

Truth to be told, it's not the maid's fault, how can she stop her master when her master is adamant to do what she wants to do, the maid is just a slave, and a slave follows her master's orders, whatever that is, sadly as a slave she has to take the blame when her master makes a mistake.

The young maid pressed her head on the floor didn't dare to lift her head.

Lin Yu Lan's face drain from color she scared to imagine what would happen to her daughter's future now, she grabbed her husband's arm and begin to beg "Husband, what can we do, what happened to Qiou Xi, because of this who will marry her now?"

For women in this world, nothing is more important than marrying well, that's why they protect their reputation and chastity like gold because they know once destroyed there is no future left for them, it's not even strange for a family to abandon their ruined daughters to save their family face.

It was a cruel reality for women but that just how the society works, therefore being a cultivator gave women a lot of liberation to choose their own destiny, which was why Yang Qiou Ru and Yang Qiou Xi hated Yang Xi Ying for not only being legitimate daughters but also cultivators, they thought this is not fair, how could Yang Xi Ying be so lucky so ever since then they trapped Yang Xi Ying many times and made her life difficult, all because of their jealousy over Yang Xi Ying's lucks..

"I do not know!" Governor Yang jerked his hand away from Lin Yu Lan's, "I don't even know how to save my own face, how can I have time to think about this useless daughter, the entire Yang family is implicated now not only will it be difficult to find a match for Qiou Xi, even the other daughters will also have a hard time finding a potential husband from now on!" he felt about to burst from rage, as his chest heaved up and down rapidly.

"Why don't….why don't we talk to Yang Xi Ying?" Lin Yu Lan suddenly said, "Maybe if Lord Long Ming forgive us we can beg him to arrange Qiou Xi marriage with one of his subordinate"

"Mom, I don't want to!" Yang Qiou Ru refutes strongly.

"SHUT UP!" Lin Yu Lan shouts at her daughter for the first time.

The governor fell silent as he pondered, actually, it wasn't such a bad idea, the four Palace Lords were all very good men, they were all so strong, young, and handsome that it was not a waste to marry his daughter to one of them. Governor Yang feel happy as he thought he find a good resolution, he stroked his beard and his expression became more relaxed, he was surprised that Lin Yu Lan would come up with such a good idea.

"I'll talk to Yang Xi Ying then," Governor Yang said, then he glare at his useless daughter with utter disgust, "Make sure she stays here and doesn't create any more trouble!" he warns everyone in the room.

"Yes, husband" Lin Yu Lan lowered her head obediently.

"Yes, master!" the maid pressed her head further.

After Governor Yang left the maid was finally able to lift her head but then she was slapped by Lin Yu Lan, the maid screamed and fell to the floor, her head spinning and her cheeks throbbing, it don't need a mirror to know there was a clear palm print on her cheek, petrified the young maid prostrated while pressing her forehead against the floor and pleading, "Please, forgive me, madam!"

"You are useless!" Lin Yu Lan scolded the poor maid even though she knew it wasn't the maid's fault but she had to relieve her anger somewhere.

"Mother please, I don't want to marry Long Ming's subordinate, I love him, I want to be his wife, why can't you help me?" Yang Qiou Ru pleaded with tears.

"Qiou Xi, stop it!" Lin Yu Lan felt tired "Look what Long Ming has done to you, It's impossible to marry him now, the best thing for you is to marry anyone from Hei Shen sect this is the only way to save your reputation" Lin Yu Lan coaxed her daughter.

Yang Qiou Xi sobbed as she remembered Zhao Li Xin's beautiful face her heart ached like thousands of ants biting her from inside out, it was so painful she couldn't breaths.

It was as if she had been possessed as her obsession seeping through her skin like a deathly poison, it slowly taking over her sanity and reason. 

At first, she was attracted by Long Ming's power and influence but once she saw his face she was instantly infatuated, she knew has fallen in love for real this time and there was nothing she wouldn't do to be with him.

"Oh my, did that really happen?" Yang Xi Ying gasped.

"Yes, everyone knows..." Li Mo Zhen blew the spoon then carefully fed Yang Xi Ying "Your sisters are in big trouble now, I don't know how they will recover from this" Li Mo Zhen sighed.

"Don't call them my sister!" Yang Xi Ying pouted, "Who do you think that arrange my meeting with that bastard Han Yuan, and who released all the bad rumors about me throughout the whole city if is not them, I believe Yang Qiou Ru seduced Gu Lian Fu because she was scared when Gu Lian Fu tried to propose to me. Hump, Who wants to marry that loser Gu Lian Fu anyway!" Yang Xi Ying scoffed with disdain.

Even though Gu Lian Fu and Yang Xi Ying were childhood friends but he ended up leaving her when she needed him the most, he even believed all the rumors and blamed her for it if she didn't meet Li Mo Zhen and Lory she was afraid to imagine where she would be now.

"I know – I know, don't be angry it's not good for the baby" Li Mo Zhen comforted his wife gently "Come on, drink a bit more, it will make you feel better" he fed Yang Xi Ying again.

"Enough, I'm full" Yang Xi Ying pressed her lips into a tight lip.

"Just one more time, Miss Yuan has been preparing this tonic all morning, do you have the heart to waste her hard work?" Li Mo Zhen knew how soft-hearted his wife was, especially to someone like Yuan Xue An who had been bullied all her life in her own family, Yang Xi Ying can't help to feel sorry for her.

Yang Xi Ying took a deep breath, "Okay, one more..." she resigned.

"En, that's good" Li Mo Zhen looked satisfied.

After finished feeding her Li Mo Zhen gently wiped Yang Xi Ying's mouth, he had meticulously helped Yang Xi Ying through her first pregnancy, Lory and Yuan Xue An told her how difficult pregnancy is for a woman, not only Yang Xi Ying would have uncontrollable mood swings, she will get easily tired, headaches, nausea, she will also experience aches all over the body and feel bloated all the time, but still, that's not all.

After listening to what Xi Ying must have been through, Li Mo Zhen felt guilty for getting her pregnant, Li Mo Zhen was determined not to let Yang Xi Ying through this again, is good enough for only having one child in this lifetime, after all, he also an only child.

However, Li Mo Zhen found out later on that his wife thought otherwise. Just like people say 'When a man makes plans, God laughs'

The door suddenly knocked.

"Come in" Li Mo Zhen gave permission.

A maid entered then bowed politely before informing them that Governor Yang had come to speak to Young Madam. Yang Xi Ying and Li Mo Zhen exchanged glances, they could guess why Governor Yang is here. 

Even though Li Mo Zhen was upset he couldn't kick out his own father-in-law from his manor, right? but luckily Yang Xi Ying's pregnancy had stabilized so Li Mo Zhen thought it would be okay if Yang Xi Ying met her father.

Honestly, Li Mo Zhen doesn't like his father-in-law who always troubles Yang Xi Ying with problems that actually have nothing to do with Yang Xi Ying, Li Mo Zhen has already thought of leaving Sun Jan City after Zhao Li Xin and Lory's wedding, he will not let his father in law constantly disturbing his wife.

"No matter what, stay calm okay" Li Mo Zhen didn't forget to remind Yang Xi Ying.

"I know…" Yang Xi Ying sighed heavily.
