Ma Jiamen: I was forced to fight for supremacy

Hui Lin was helpless. She looked at the things on the stone table and then at Ma Zhan.

If it weren't for these things, Ma Zhan would have been thrown out long ago.

The courtyard was eerily quiet, and the little girl blinked her big eyes, looking dazed.

"Could he be my senior sister's child?"

The "ex-girlfriend" couldn't help it anymore, but she couldn't offend Ma Zhan, so she turned around and ran back to the room.

Huilin stood in front of Ma Zhan and forced a smile.

"Little brother, can I speak now?"

"I'm Ma Zhan from the Qingshui Marquis' Mansion, and Miaoyi asked me to deliver something.

She was injured and lived in a bamboo courtyard in Laoshan.

If you want to see him, you'd better ask me to take you there. There are traps everywhere around the bamboo garden.

What was the name of that girl just now?"

Huilin was confused and wanted to say something, but Ma Zhan answered her question in advance, saying...

"Her name is He Ling~"

"He Ling, what a nice name! Why does it look so much like my ex-girlfriend? Did she also travel through time?"

Seeing that Ma Zhan was still standing there, Huilin ignored him.

She summoned the other two disciples, arranged for the salt permit to be verified, and then sent it back to Mount Emei via several carrier birds. She took He Ling and Xiao Yue to visit Miao Yi.

After Ma Zhan came back to life, Huilin spoke to him kindly.

"Young Master, can you take us to the Bamboo Courtyard in Laoshan now?"

"Let's go."

Ma Zhan, Huilin and a few others, rode towards Laoshan on horseback.

——In the Qingshui Marquis Mansion, Yuehua sat in the main seat with a serious face.

Ma Er and Mr. Meng stood in the middle of the living room in panic. Yuehua listened carefully to what Ma Er said, not missing a single word.

After Ma Er finished speaking, he stood aside.

Yuehua looked at the girl in front of her wearing a silver mask thoughtfully. Perhaps unable to withstand Yuehua's majesty at the moment, the girl's body trembled slightly.

Not long after, Ma San brought a somewhat nervous old man into the living room.

The old man bowed to Yuehua and said, "I am honored to meet Princess Yuehua."

"Grandpa~."

Mr. Meng was very surprised that his grandfather appeared here.

The old man did not answer Mr. Meng and continued.

"Mengyao is young and ignorant. It is my fault that I failed to teach her well. I am willing to take the blame for her. I hope Princess Yuehua will show mercy."

"Grandfather..." Mr. Meng also knelt down.

The old man knelt on the ground with his head buried low.

Yuehua didn't say anything, but just looked quietly at the girl named Mengyao, thinking about something.

Not long after, Ma Da and Ma Wu entered the main hall together, saluted Princess Yuehua, and stood aside.

Yuehua closed her beautiful eyes slightly, sorted out her thoughts, and then spoke.

"Old man, please get up and go to the living room to have some tea. Miss Meng, please get up too."

After the old man left, Yuehua asked.

"What are the losses?"

Ma Wu stepped out and bowed in reply.

"There were three small merchant ships, 21 boatmen were injured, six were killed, and two fell into the sea and went missing.

Seven fishing boats were involved, five fishermen were injured and no one was killed.

Twelve dock workers were injured and one fell into the sea and went missing.

The loss of cargo is still being calculated.”

"Hmm~, where's Hu Zi?"

Ma Da said: "Take the people from Mount Emei to the Bamboo Courtyard."

Martha paused and continued.

"Madam, Hu Zi..."

Mistress Yuehua showed her majesty and glanced at Mada, who immediately lowered his head and remained silent.

"Post a public notice, a sea monster is attacking the salt field town.

Ma Da and Ma Er fought with monsters at sea, causing huge waves.

Qingshui Port will compensate for any loss of the vessel and cargo according to the market price.

The wounded will be treated at Qingshui Harbor, and the deceased will be given the Qingshui Weifu soldier's death allowance."

Ma Da, Ma Er, and Ma Wu took the order and left, and Yuehua continued.

"Third Brother, be mindful of the situation in Qingshui City and act accordingly."

Ma San bowed and left the main hall.

Yuehua breathed a sigh of relief and walked up to Mengyao.

"Ms. Meng, tell me about yourself."

At this moment, Mengyao was trying her best to please the high and mighty princess in front of her, but she didn't know where to start and was so anxious that she almost cried.

Yuehua didn't urge her and pointed the little girl in a direction.

"Tell me about the mask you're wearing. It's blessed with array patterns, so it's definitely not an ordinary item."

Yuehua's words did not make Mengyao relax. She was still hesitant and did not want to mention the mask.

Yuehua just looked at her quietly, waiting patiently for her to adjust her mood.

But Yuehua's eyes were firm. Mengyao would not be able to get away without answering her own question.

"I am an ominous person."

Mengyao closed her eyes tightly and recalled the past painfully.

“From the age of ten, my grandfather was the only one who took care of me at home.

Everyone around me said that I was an unlucky person. My parents and many relatives died because of me.

My former friends, sisters, and neighbors treated me like a plague and just wanted to stay away from me.

As a child, I was bullied and cried all the time.

Until I was twelve years old, I ran into the mountains alone and never wanted to go back to that home.

I only remember that the mountain was very big and it was dark. I was very scared and sat on the ground crying.

A huge monster came out from nowhere and I fainted from fright.

When I woke up, it felt like the right side of my face was gone.

I touched it with my hand and it was covered in blood. It hurt, it really hurt.

My grandfather held me in his arms and told me until I was tired of crying.

I was licked by a bear demon, and almost half of the skin on my face was scraped off by the barbs on the beast's tongue.

Since then, my grandfather took me away from that family and came to the small town of Yancheng.

I didn't want to go out every day, so I just copied my grandfather's books at home.

About half a year later, I learned that my grandfather was a formation master, and he began to train me deliberately.

For some reason, my grandfather's health is getting worse and worse.

Until a month ago, my grandfather was unable to go to work at the shipyard.

Song Baotou came to visit my grandfather many times. I learned from him that the shipyard could not do without formation masters.

In order to continue living in the small town of Yancheng, I asked someone to make this silver mask, engraved array patterns on it, and went to the shipyard in place of my grandfather.

The uncles and aunts at the shipyard were all very nice to me and called me Mr. Meng.

Uncle Ma also invited a doctor to see my grandfather and sent him a lot of tonics.

This month has been the happiest month of my life.

Today I met the little boy named Hu Zi. He looked so cute with his chubby face and I really wanted to get close to him.

He said he was a warrior and asked me to help him become stronger, I...

I never expected... something so horrible would happen. I'm sorry, Princess.

Don't embarrass my grandfather. I'm sorry."

Mengyao said everything she could think of, hoping to satisfy the princess in front of her and not embarrass her grandfather.

Although Yuehua was born into a royal family, she has run Qingshui City for many years and has seen many sufferings in the world.

After hearing Mengyao's story, I was only slightly moved.

Yuehua stretched out her hand, and her white fingertips lightly touched Mengyao's mask.

After a wave of runes, the mask fell into Yuehua's hands.

The area covered by the mask was not covered by skin, and the dark red flesh was directly exposed.

The scar is surrounded by wrinkles, which looks very uncomfortable.

Mengyao was afraid that her ugly face would offend Princess Yuehua, so she lowered her head as much as possible.
