Chapter 5: The Blessing of Gouging Out Eyes and Chopping Off Feet
In order to show her love and support, Lan gave her a dowry of five loads in the name of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion, including clothes, headgear, cloth, gold, silver, jade, screens and ornaments.
Even the Empress Dowager in the palace sent out female officials to add makeup to her.
On the day Lan Hui got married, Mu Qingyan went to watch the fun.
In fact, it was mainly to take a look at the original owner's younger sister who was raised by the empress dowager since childhood and was only a few days younger than her.
That is the eldest daughter of the Lan family, Mu Ruge.
She has lived in the palace since she was a child. With her own efforts, she has risen step by step from an ordinary palace maid to a second-rank Shangyi in charge of etiquette teaching in the inner court.
Today she was wearing the crimson purple attire of a second-rank female official, with four palace maids in front of her fanning the way.
Behind her were sixteen palace maids, all holding wooden boxes in their hands, following her respectfully. She folded her hands in front of her, looking straight ahead, and the hem of her clothes only swayed slightly when she moved. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't see it at all. She was indeed a female official in charge of etiquette.
Her face was fair and rosy, like a fairy from the Ninth Heaven who had strayed into the mortal world, not interested in worldly matters. She was cold and aloof, with a graceful figure. Her every move was full of unparalleled charm.
The moment he saw her, Mu Qingyan felt that using words to describe her appearance was pale and powerless.
The female official's attire had no fancy patterns, but the crimson purple color always represented nobility. Her status in the inner court was even higher than that of many concubines.
She learned about the original owner's noble sister from another sister, namely Lan's youngest daughter Mu Yingyu.
Today, Mu Yingyu insisted on dragging her out to see her sister, the most glorious female official.
Looking at that face, Mu Qingyan remembered the dream. It was a very long dream with many people in it. Among them was a face that belonged to Mu Ruge.
She remembered a scene where Mu Ruge put on the gorgeous clothes of a queen, walked up to the original owner, who was left with only a broken body, and told her in a proud and almost crazy tone, "Sister, after all, we are sisters. I will go to the general's mansion to fulfill my filial piety for you."
"I had their bodies thrown into a mass grave and released a few wolfhounds that had been hungry for days... Watching their flesh being torn and eaten... Tsk tsk tsk tsk... I really should have let you go and see..."
"Ouch! Look at my memory... Your eyes have been dug out, so you can't see, hahahaha..."
Mu Qingyan didn't know if this was a dream or a memory left in the original owner's mind. If those scenes really happened, then under this captivating beauty, there was a heart of a vicious snake...
"Greetings, Master Shang Yi!"
The sound of shouting in her ears brought her back to her senses.
The people in the Marquis Mingyuan's mansion were flattered, especially the Marquis' wife. They never imagined that the Empress Dowager in the palace would specially send someone to add makeup to Lan Hui!
Mu Ruge's face was calm. The dignity of a female official made her already cold and aloof look even more noble. "In compliance with the Queen Mother's order, I am going to add some dowry to the daughter of the Marquis of Mingyuan's mansion..."
Lady Mingyuan was trembling with fear, because the dowry she prepared for Lan Hui was not as much as that prepared by the Lan family. Not to mention the queen mother's! She would never have thought that the queen mother would make such a big show to save face for that bitch! On weekdays, she didn't seem to pay much attention to her!
Watching the bride get on the bridal sedan, followed by a long procession of dowry, Mu Ruge walked through the crowd and came in front of her. She stared at her for a long time with her phoenix eyes before leaning close to her ear and whispering, "No matter what kind of monster you are, you'd better not make trouble in this mansion, otherwise, I will make you live a life worse than death..."
She hugged Mu Qingyan with both hands, with a gentle smile on her face and uttered those threatening words.
Then he let her go and said in a normal voice, "Mother wrote to me saying that my sister is back, but I didn't believe it. Now it turns out to be true. Unfortunately, I'm in the palace and can't leave my post without permission. Otherwise, I would definitely have a good chat with my sister..."
Mu Qingyan sneered, "I have never met you before, what good old times do we have to talk about? This is your biological sister."
She took a step back and pointed at Mu Yingyu, who was slightly shorter than her.
Mu Ruge's calm expression changed slightly, but she quickly covered it up with a smile, "You and I are from the same family, blood is thicker than water, and we are sisters. Yingyu is naughty, and she needs your care."
Before Mu Qingyan could say anything, Mu Yingyu became impatient and said, "Sister, why are you wasting your time arguing with her? I have a mother and a sister, why do I need a wild girl from a remote village to take care of me!"
"Sister Yu, you must not be disrespectful to your elder sister!" Her tone was a little serious, and Mu Yingyu pursed her lips and said "oh" in dissatisfaction. But soon, she glared at Mu Qingyan behind her.
"I have been ordered to leave the palace and cannot stay for long. Please give my regards to my father and mother. I have to return to the palace."
After saying that, she bowed politely to Mu Qingyan before turning around and leaving.
Because of that dream, Mu Qingyan didn't have a good impression of her. In her eyes, all of Mu Ruge's behavior was just pretense. Under that beautiful face, it seemed as if there was a giant beast hiding, ready to open its bloody mouth and reveal its sharp fangs at her at any time.
Seeing her leaving with so many people following her, Mu Qingyan also turned around and left. Mu Yingyu ran up to her and held her back, "Are you in such a hurry to reincarnate? Why are you running so fast? My sister is a second-rank female official in the inner court. She is willing to humble herself and call you sister. This is a blessing you have earned in several lifetimes. Don't be ungrateful!"
Mu Qingyan sneered. Blessing? What kind of blessing? The blessing of having your eyes gouged out and your feet chopped off?
"This blessing is for you, I don't want it!"
"Hey! Your engagement has been broken off. It won't be easy to find a good marriage in the future. Please beg me, and I will go and beg mother and sister. With them around, you can also marry a good husband! Don't leave!"
Mu Yingyu ran and shouted, but she couldn't catch up no matter what. People on the street kept looking at her.
She was so focused on running that she didn't notice that the person running in front of her suddenly stopped, and she was caught off guard and bumped into him.
"Ah——" Mu Yingyu was shorter than Mu Qingyan. She stopped suddenly and her nose just hit her shoulder blade.
"You're going to die! You bumped my nose into a crooked shape!" Mu Qingyan turned around and saw her covering her nose with tears streaming down her face. Her eyes were red, like a little rabbit.
“Let me see…” Mu Qingyan took her hand away, “Ouch! It’s broken! Your nose is really crooked, tut tut tut… You won’t be able to get married!”
"Oh, you are a bad person! I will tell my parents that you are a bully!"
She covered her nose and ran away crying, and the maid behind her hurriedly chased after her.
