Although Yan was sealed in the Forbidden Black Water Prison, he was still able to see clearly what had happened in the outside world.
"This seemed to be a Water Pearl…" Yan stopped and continued, "It's right. It really is Water Pearl! Humph! This compensates for our loss. Although we don't have the Lotus Flame Furnace, this Water Pearl is also one of heaven and earth's precious treasures."
"Water Pearl?"
"With this Water Pearl, it's not a difficult task to go to the depth of the sea."
Huang Bei Yue thought for a moment then laughed: "The pressure at the bottom of the sea is huge. If people go down there, they will be pressed into pieces."
"Humph, you don't understand this. Although this Water Pearl isn't a weapon, as long as it is water, it will move out of the way. Walking at the bottom of the sea would be like walking on the plain ground."
"Well, this sounds amazing. When we have time, we should try this out." Huang Bei Yue looked at the pearl and placed it away. She then sneaked back to Flowing Cloud Pavilion.
After she had come out from changing her clothes, Dong Ling had run over exclaiming: "Young miss, something's wrong! Anguo Gong Fu's people had surrounded our prefecture."
Huang Bei Yue calmly drank her tea and nodded: "They're pretty quick."
Dong Ling saw how she acted naturally as though she knew everything. She curiously asked: "Young miss, what happened?"
Huang Bei Yue hooked her finger and told Dong Ling to move her head over. She then explained how she had framed Xiao Zhong Qi to Dong Ling. After she heard everything, Dong Ling burst into laughter: "Young miss, you're so mean!"
"This is called placing the blame on someone else. I killed Xue Meng while Xiao Zhong Qi had stolen Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl. Guess. Guess whether that old man Anguo Gong would think Xue Meng is more important or Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl?"
Dong Ling scratched her head and said: "Blood runs deeper than water, after all the affection between father and daughter…."
"Aye!" Huang Bei Yue knocked on Dong Ling's head. "What affection between father and daughter? In these famous families, there is no such thing as affection. There are only benefits. Look at Xiao Yuan Cheng and you'll understand."
Dong Ling's expression dimmed and patted Huang Bei Yue's hand saying: "Young miss, don't be upset with how the lord is right now."
She shouldn't be too upset? There was no affection between Xiao Yuan Cheng and her!
In her heart, she had never accepted Xiao Yuan Cheng as her father. Although the truth is that she couldn't deny was that the lord and Huang Bei Yue were related by blood.
Dong Ling was innocent and gentle unlike her. After experiencing so much, she had become isolated and bitter.
The noise outside got louder and louder. The quiet night was completely disturbed.
The lights in Princess Zhang's Prefecture were turned on. The young masters/misses and concubines were all woken up. Right now they were all frightened by the murderous aura outside. They all hid in their rooms, afraid to go out.
Huang Bei Yue and Dong Ling walked over to the front yard where the Xiao family and Anguo Gong's Prefecture's people were at. The atmosphere was hostile and it seemed to be the point where if they started arguing, countless people were going to die!
Xiao Yuan Cheng didn't even wear his clothes properly on time. He stood at the door with Anguo Gong. Anguo Gong's clothes also weren't properly dressed and he had on the black fox fur coat from before.
Xue Che noisily exclaimed: "Where is Xiao Zhong Qi? Let him come out!"
Xue Che's voice was firm plus he had let out the giant red spider out, which had stood proudly in front of Princess Zhang Gong's Prefecture. Everyone was frightened by the red spider's size.
That Xiao Zhong Qi probably had received the news, thus the reason why he still hadn't come out.
Only Xiao Yun's calmness was still intact. She summoned her Sky Snow Cat out and squatted in front of the yard, staring at the red spider.
The Sky Snow Cat and the red spider, the difference in levels were too high. The Sky Snow Cat wouldn't be able to beat the red spider. It was weaker than the red spider.
Huang Bei Yue thought it was funny to look at. She couldn't hold it in so she covered her mouth with her hand while laughing. Dong Ling couldn't hold it in either.
"Third young miss? How did you come here?" A voice came from the back which belonged to someone who was sneaking around.
Dong Ling turned around and saw it was Pei Xiang. She then put away her smile and explained: "Third young miss came over here to see what happened."
Pei Xiang answered with a low voice: "What happened? It's the eldest young master who had gotten in trouble. Who knew what he does every day? There's no improvement and he only knew to cause trouble. This time he caused a huge trouble!"
The corner of Huang Bei Yue's mouth tilted up, her expression indifferent: "What trouble did he cause?"
"I heard that the eldest young master was extremely reckless. He actually went to Anguo Gong's Prefecture and stole the famous Lotus Flame Furnace!" When Pei Xiang explained, she was angry. Just before Concubine Qin was angry and that go her pinched! It had hurt so much!
Dong Ling pretended to be shocked: "Lotus Flame Furnace?! That's so daring! What was the eldest young master thinking? Anguo Gong's Prefecture has a lot of power. It's not someone who he can offend!"
Pei Xiang's face was indignant, "That's right ah, who knew what he was thinking! Concubine Qin was so furious! I think this time, the lord would harshly punish Concubine Qin! Concubine Qin will lose favor."
Dong Ling comforted her: "Don't worry, Concubine Qin has Cheng Xiang's Prefecture behind her back ah. Plus Concubine Qin is beautiful, she won't lose favor"
Pei Xiang raised her eyes and carefully looked at Huang Bei Yue before saying: "Third young miss, how about you let me follow you?"
"Pei Xiang, with you at Concubine Qin's side helping me, I'll be more than relieved." Huang Bei Yue turned around and looked at her. The white face revealed a simple and elegant smile.
Dong Ling added: "That's right. Without you, how can the young miss beat Concubine Qin? When the young miss is in charge of Princess Zhang's Prefecture, you'll be the biggest hero."
Pei Xiang's face flashed over a happy expression and hurriedly exclaimed: "Thank you third young miss! Pei Xiang will do her best to help third young miss!"
Huang Bei Yue nodded and gave a look to Dong Ling. Dong Ling smiled and grabbed a pocket of gold coins from her sleeves to Pei Xiang.
"Sister Pei Xiang, use this money first. Young miss has rewarded you it."
Pei Xiang's eyes were almost straight and she widened her mouth. This is a whole packet of gold coins ah! Growing up this big, she had never seen that much money!
In the Karte Mainland, gold coins were the most valuable type of coins. The income of normal people, at most they would only have 20 something gold coins.
Yet when young miss had given her something, it was a whole packet of gold coins! There were at least 100 something gold coins!
"Thank you, young miss!" Pei Xiang was so joyful she couldn't even close her mouth.
Dong Ling smiled: "Keep it safe, don't let anyone see it."
Pei Xiang nodded her head rapidly and then lowered her voice to announce: "Third young miss, the problem that the eldest young master had caused will probably go out of hand. The Emperor will probably get to know about it too. No matter how much power the prime minister has, it wouldn't be more than the Emperors. Therefore, Concubine Qin might come back and beg you for your help."
Huang Bei Yue raised her eyebrows: "Beg me?"
"Well right now, who doesn't know the Emperor has the third young miss in his heart? Plus the Crown Prince and Princess Ying Ye are also fond of the third young miss. One sentence from you is probably more useful than ten sentences from the prime minister."
Pei Xiang tried to please her. Although it wasn't really pleasing since, after that day's palace banquet, the Emperor's attitude about this was obvious.
