Chapter 490 - 490 Bribing in Public?
Revenge of the Sixth Young Lady
Such a scenario, even if Wei Yuewu is full of heartbreak also canât help but laugh out, this chamberlain really has character, especially for this chess one, actually so obsessed with it, as if he doesnât know that today is to assess the showgirls, but just to play chess with people idly as if, and this temper is really too good.
Unable to do so, Wei Yuewu would not need him to be good-tempered this time.
Pick up the previous pieces, re-fall, re-play, two people again you and me several times, the last Wei Yuewu a corner is gone again, this time Wei Yuewu also did not say, extremely quick to reach out a wipe, the above chess game to wipe out, quite a few rogue lowered voice pleaded.
âThis eunuch, have been playing for so long, also did not distinguish a winner, Mo such as even if we draw, so many showgirls, if we wait for us to this game of chess down, but also not when, I still have to go to stand for election, afraid of being misplaced!â
Wei Yuewu accompanied a smile while secretly fumbling for a purse from her sleeve and handing it over.
Old Sister angry eyes are on fire, have never seen such a showgirl who does not know how to advance and retreat, actually openly in front of their own bribes, but also brazen to such a point, this will be unable to hold back again, sternly reprimanded, âThis showgirl, do you know what youâre doing? Here is the imperial palace, words and behavior are no good, directly brush down â¦â
âSister Yi, this matter is also considered a small matter, a draw is a draw, this showgirl has a childâs childish mentality, so itâs not like she can talk about her words and behavior being unruly.â That chamberlain finally raised his head, a calm young man looking face, his eyes were also very straight, I could tell that he was a good person.
Seeing Wei Yuewu stunned for a moment, but then a faint smile appeared on her face.
âBut Eunuch Qin â¦â Sister Yi was anxious when she heard that the chamberlain had spared Wei Yuewu again.
âSister Yi, this matter has its own decision, itâs not a big deal!â The chamberlain stood up and said with a leisurely face, âLetâs write a draw, itâs always the first round, they are all misses of the utopian noble families, so if the first round goes on, it will really make the families lose face!â
âBut â¦â Sister Yi looked at the name on the book, and wanted to tell this Eunuch Qin, this sixth miss of the Marquis of Huayang was originally supposed to be brushed down in the first round, and the people around the Empress have long hinted at the fact that the Marquis of Huayang has a young lady who has been selected to be a high-ranking concubine in the Eastern Palace. The concubine, basically is just going through the motions and themselves.
Empress Dowagerâs side of the people even though not the palace others can be called, but the Empress Dowagerâs meaning, or to listen to, and the Empress Dowager said is also the truth, this reason is said to the Empress Dowager in front, is also justified.
But on the contrary, this Eunuch Qin at the moment is His Highness the Crown Princeâs man.
The people sent over by His Highness the Crown Prince, and she couldnât just offend them, Sister Yi was really suffocating.
âAlright, Sister Yi will settle for a draw!â The chamberlain graciously took the purse that Wei Yuewu had sent over from the table, and put it into his sleeve in front of the crowdâs astonished gazes, and then smiled rather embarrassedly at Wei Yuewu, and stretched out his hand, âMany thanks to this young lady, please!â
Wei Yuewu stared at him for half a second and opened her lips, realizing for the first time that there were times when she turned out to be speechless, and then she could only smile bitterly and retreated helplessly.
To get outside the palace, see the team outside this time has been dispersed, some people cry, some people laugh, some people in the chattering chat, although very light, but the whole atmosphere is relaxed, not yet into the hall of the showgirls have not been much.
âMiss Wei Six1,â someone greeted her.
Wei Yuewu stood still and looked to the side, but it turned out to be Zhao Ruoâe. A slight smile appeared on her face as she raised her steps and walked over, âMiss Zhao!â
The party was so crowded that she didnât notice that Yue Ruoâe was even inside.
âMiss Wei Sixth here come sit!â At the corridor on Zhao Ruoeâs side, there were several young ladies sitting there, and one that looked familiar was Li Yueâer who she had seen last time, and when she saw Wei Yuewu coming over, she let out a cold snort, and directly twisted her head as if she hadnât seen it.
Wei Yuewu didnât care, and walked straight over with light footsteps.
Unable to do so, this Li Yueâer was a person who was not willing to be ignored, and her feet soundlessly probed out, intending to trip Wei Yuewu a heel.
A cold smile flashed in Wei Yuewuâs eyes, her feet didnât stop, as if she didnât see Li Yue Erâs outstretched foot, she smiled at Zhao Ruoâe in front of her, âI didnât notice Ms. Zhao just now, I canât imagine that Ms. Zhao is also here, ah â¦â
As she spoke, she stepped on Li Yueâerâs foot, thumped and rushed two steps, and fell to the ground.
âHahahahaha!â The few ladies standing beside Li Yueâer couldnât help but burst out laughing.
Li Yueâer retracted her feet and also covered her lips and laughed, âMiss Wei Sixth, why donât you grow eyes when you walk, such a big person, actually canât even walk steadily.â
âWhatâs wrong with you? Is there anything wrong?â It was Zhao Ruoâe who came over to support Wei Yuewu while saying with concern.
âWhose foot â¦â Wei Yueyue Dance covered her leg with one hand while whispering with a pained look.
âIt doesnât matter whose foot it is, who made you walk without looking at the ground, who can you blame if you donât grow eyes yourself!â Seeing that the worse Wei Yuewu looked, the happier Li Yue Er became, this would sneer loudly.
âNo, Iâm not, I donât have eyes of my own!â
âWalk without looking where youâre looking!â
âIâm sure youâre from the countryside, you canât even walk!â â¦
The few young ladies following Li Yueâer, one by one, mocked.
âMiss Zhao, help me call that Sister over!â Wei Yuewu helped Zhao Ruoâeâs hand to stand up and take a seat at one side of the corridor, covering her calf with one hand as she said.
âWhatâs wrong?â Seeing Wei Yuewuâs expression, Zhao Ruoâe asked urgently.
âThereâs something to find that Sister, help me shout!â Wei Yuewuâs face was pale, but her complexion was still calm, she didnât even look at Li Yueâerâs few, and still said to Zhao Ruoâe.
âOkay, Iâll go right away!â Zhao Ruoâe also felt straight away that something was not right, and busily stood up, carrying her skirt and ran over, saying a few puts to an old Sister standing at the entrance of the main hall, the old Sisterâs eyes looked over to their side and frowned, but still followed Zhao Ruoâe over.
This side of the showgirls are all utopian noble lady, this if something really happened, she can not afford this responsibility.
As the old grandma came over, Li Yueâer inexplicably felt bad and hurriedly warned in a stern voice, âMiss Wei Sixth, just this one time, you wonât really be alright, will you? If you hurt your leg this time, you wonât be able to choose again.â
Canât carry on the selection again, on behalf of is no chance to enter the East Palace, later and the Palace is also hopeless, glory and wealth are over the eye of the cloud eye, Li Yueâer donât believe that Wei Yuewu dares to gamble so much on his future.
Wei Yuewu this time also ignored her, her hand still pressed on her leg and foot, the pain on her face was obvious, those few flirting young ladies obviously also thought of something, no longer dare to be reckless, one by one pinched her handkerchiefs and got distracted.
âWhatâs going on?â The old Sister walked over to Wei Yueyue Danceâs body.
âSister ⦠I tripped over someone and twisted my leg, Iâm afraid ⦠Iâm afraid I wonât be able to walk, please go and ask a eunuch to help me look.â Wei Yuewu tightly touched her calf, her face was pale and raised her eyes, a pair of beautiful eyes contained glistening tears.
âYouâre talking nonsense, just so lightly tripped, how can something be wrong, Wei Yuewu are you intentionally trying to harm me before you deliberately make all these have-nots.â Before the old grandma could say anything, Li Yueâer on the side couldnât help but yell out, âIâm telling you, this has nothing to do with me, itâs you who accidentally tripped over something, I just happened to be next to you at the time, donât you dare to rely on me.â
âWhat in the world is going on?â Old Sister also heard something from Li Yueâerâs words this time and sternly said.
âSister, call a great doctor over first!â Wei Yuewu ignored Li Yueâerâs yelling and remained in pain.
âSister, please call the Imperial Doctor first, this is the Sixth Miss of the Marquis of Huayang, the first daughter of the Marquis of Huayang, if we treat her too late, something will really happen!â Zhao Yueâe was also in a hurry, and even reported Wei Luanâs name.
The old Sister looked at Wei Yuewuâs situation and knew that she couldnât afford to make any mistakes, so she called over a palace maid and asked her to go and ask the Imperial Doctor to come over.
âWho tripped her?â The old Sister looked at the leveled area and asked in a stern voice, âYou are now all showgirls who have entered the palace to be selected for the draft, donât think that you are still in your own mansion and do whatever you want to do, the slightest bit of unpleasantness may even involve the entire family.â
âI ⦠have nothing to do with me!â
âIt doesnât matter to me either, Iâll stand away.â
âI didnât see clearly what was going on!â Being swept by the old Sisterâs stern gaze, the heads of one of the showgirls lowered and whispered.
Here is the palace, this if something really happened, it is really likely to be a big deal, not just their own a personâs thing, involving the whole family is very likely, these young lady into the palace, the family is also a thousand instructions, ten thousand instructions, just follow the crowd to ridicule Wei Yuewu is one thing, this will be Wei Yuewu really out of the matter is one thing.
Everyone knows that the Marquis of Huayang is not to be messed with, this only first daughter really if something happens, Iâm afraid that all the people present will not be able to get well, this will be several young ladies regret that they said the rumors at that time.
âThis matter has nothing to do with me either, itâs just that she fell down when she walked past me, I just sat here and did nothing, if you donât believe me, Sister can ask the other young ladies.â Although Li Yueâer was alarmed, she still defended herself.
She bet that no one was paying attention to her movements at the time, and it was impossible to see her slightly sticking her foot out to trip Wei Yuewu.
Moreover, this kind of thing, even if someone says itâs himself, he can also not admit it, the public says itâs reasonable, the mother-in-law says itâs reasonable, he dead bites that he didnât trip Wei Yuewu, itâs hard not to be able to identify himself, anyway, at that time in that position is not just himself.
âMiss Li ⦠how can you ⦠be like this!â Wei Yuewuâs slightly lowered voice carried a few moments of anger, âIf it wasnât for Ms. Liâs foot, how could I have fallen!â
âYouâre bullshitting me!â Li Yueâer screamed loudly, suddenly standing up straight and righteously saying, âWhat proof do you have that I tripped you, that I caused you to fall!â
