When he raised his head, he saw that Huang Bei Yue had walked away. Then, he fell on the ground on his butt. The feet and hands were trembling.
Too scary, too scary!
Although she looked to be around a twelve-year-old girl, the clothes she wore made her look composed and stylish. She was elegant and outstanding, her temperament also calm as though she was Princess Zhang!
But there were still places that were different!
On Huang Bei Yue's body, there is a solemn murderous spirit. In her every moment, it was revealed as though she was naturally walking out from the Asura. It's just a faint look and this led people to feel numb the whole body!
This type of person, how could they think she was a useless person before? They thought she was a sick person who could be bullied however they wanted to? They really are blind ah!
In the front hall, the moment Huang Bei Yue sat down, the maids hurried to place the warm tea and snacks down. The hand in which they held the plate trembled with fear.
Huang Bei Yue used the back of her hand to support a side of her face. She slightly drooped her eyes down and with the other hand, she picked up the teacup. Dong Ling hurriedly raised her hand over, in a small voice: "Young miss, this tea—-"
"There won't be a problem." Before, she took specialized training with different types of poisons, even neurotoxins. She was very sensitive to different types of poisons. If there was a problem with the tea, she would've detected it already.
Plus, after she was punished by the Punishment Flame, she was basically immune to all sorts of poisons.
She slowly sipped half a cup of tea when Concubine Xue came over, bringing Xiao Zhong Qin and Xiao Yun. Today, she was soaked in the lotus pond for half a day so Concubine Qin's face was pale white. Right now, she had cleaned off her body but it was still obvious of her dejected look after being scared.
She held onto Xiao Zhong Qi's hand and the cold sweat dripped down her face. She was lacking in spirit so it seemed as though she was sick.
Huang Bei Yue lowered her eyes, blowing at the bubbles in the tea. She pretended as though she didn't see, letting Concubine Qin stand there for a while in her sick manner.
Xiao Zhong Qi's angry face became more and more visible. Slowly, he was unable to calm down, opening his mouth: "Third sister, why did you order for people to call us over for?"
Huang Bei Yue then raised her head, smiling: "As it turned out, elder brother Concubine Qin are here. How come you guys didn't say anything? Quickly sit. Concubine Qin looked as though your body isn't that well. What happened?"
Xiao Zhong Qi coldly humphed. He helped Concubine Qin sit down on the chair. This Huang Bei Yue knew how to act. All these years, he was fooled by her!
Humph, his mother was harmed by her to this point. She was not even embarrassed to ask what happened?
Huang Bei Yue turned her head around to look at Xiao Zhong Qi's face. She faintly smiled: "Elder brother's mood doesn't seem to be that good ah."
Xiao Zhong Qi was about to reply when Concubine Qin secretly pulled at the sleeves of his shirt. Concubine Qin smiled: "What is the third young miss saying? It's just that my body isn't that great and Qi Er is just worried."
"Oh—-" Huang Bei Yue purposefully dragged the letter out. She smiled with unknown intentions. "Elder brother, you are very obedient ah."
Concubine Qin's heart was pumping rapidly due to her 'oh.' She hurriedly inquired: "What is the matter for the third young miss to call us over for?"
The experience today by the lotus pond, Concubine Qin was unable to forget about this her whole life. She was mentally afraid of Huang Bei Yue's methods plus when Xiao Zhong Qi exclaimed that she had heavily injured the prefecture of the government minister's Lin Zi Cheng, she was even more petrified.
Originally, she had gotten only a little cold. It would be all good when she goes back home to sleep and drink some warm ginger soup. However, when she was sleeping, she started to remember all the things she had done to Huang Bei Yue in the past.
She dreamed that she( Bei Yue's Mother) came back for revenge and also killed her, hanging her on the fake mountains.
After she wakened up from the dream, her entire body collapsed. Now, as long as there is a slight movement, it was easy for her to lose her head out of fear.
In the past, she was never someone who got scared easily. But this time, it was obvious that she was very terrified!
Huang Bei Yue stared at her frightful look and faintly smiled: "Actually, there isn't really a matter. It's just that in the past, my body isn't that well plus I am also very young so all the things in the prefecture, I had to trouble Concubine Xue and Qin to manage it. I feel very apologetic so today, I especially found Concubine Xue and Qin to come together to thank you, guys."
Concubine Qin's originally pale white face, after hearing the words, turned even paler. She forced a smile on "The third young miss is saying some harsh words. These are all things that the Lord had ordered. I was just doing my best…"
The two hands, under the sleeves, tightly entangled each other. A mouthful of blood was in her throat and even if she wanted to vomit, she wasn't able to!
This day finally came ah! She knew that when Huang Bei Yue grew up, she would ask about family matters. But who knew that this girl who was only half grown up had already started to intervene with the matters!
All these years of building an enterprise, would she need to give this away?
"What the Lord's father had made clear, father is worrying too much about." Huang Bei Yue drank a cup of tea and raised her head up. Right then, she saw as Xiao Yuan Cheng and Concubine Xue walking in.
Xiao Yun and Xiao Zhong Lei were behind too.
There was also a couple of young concubines, brought their young children and those who hadn't given birth to any too.
The last person who followed, coming in, was Xiao Ling's mother – Concubine Fang. This Concubine Fang wore simple clothes and on an average year, she was a vegetarian. She stood aloof from worldly affairs and normally didn't come out either. At the Chinese New Year or other festivities, she just occasionally came out to make an appearance then went back. It was heard that her body wasn't that well and her personality was quite gentle and quiet. It was unclear how she gave birth to Xiao Ling – that type of daughter.
One time, Huang Bei Yue was bullied and she hid by Concubine Fang's Cui Zhu Yuan. Concubine Fang had given her some foods to eat and even protected her a couple times. Remembering this kindness, when she handled Xiao Ling, she would also be less strict on her.
The moment Xiao Yuan Cheng walked into the door, he saw that Huang Bei Yue sat on the master's seat. His face was a little unhappy. Huang Bei Yue opened her mouth first: "Father is here. Quickly come sit. All the concubines, please take a seat too. Brothers and sisters, take a seat too."
Concubine Xue stared at Concubine Qin. She watched her expression and in her heart, she was pondering. Could it be that Huang Bei Yue was starting to intervene with the family matters?
Everyone got into their seats. The maids brought the tea up then Huang Bei Yue slowly exclaimed: "Before, I had said this to Concubine Qin. These couple of years, father and the concubines have been hard at work, managing the family matters. Now that father is turning old and has a group of daughters and sons, it is time for you to live in ease and comfort with the concubines…"
Her words were not finished when Xiao Yuan Cheng was restless: "Bei Yue, you're still young and you want to monopolize the authority?"
Huang Bei Yue dropped the teacup down and blinked her eyes. She looked to be innocent and naive, not mad at all. She grinned, inquiring: "What does father mean by this statement?"
Xiao Yuan Cheng retorted: "All the matters in the prefecture, all the years, it's always been you and the concubines managing after it. Even if the power should be let go, you should follow the order of the seniority and let your brothers and sisters take over."
"Follow the order of the seniority?" Huang Bei Yue's gaze landed on the young masters and young misses in the hall and swept her gaze through each one, smiling: "Should I dare to ask the father that of the brothers and sisters, who else is born from the same mother as I am? Who is the first daughter of the first lady within the prefecture?"
