" Foolish woman, why are you standing still? Should you not offer me tea on your knees ?", Kin Fie roared as Jiang Yang left the pavilion.
Kin Hua Jing smirked, " Bitch! you can never win over my Aunt.", she mumbled.
" Did you say something? ", King Lil turned towards Kin Hua Jing.
She immediately turned her expression to an anxious one and told, " No, I am just thinking that how will Brother's Mansion be handled in the future? The new Princess does not know our rituals, if she cause rufous in public then, Imperial Family will loose face. I am worried about it. ", she said in a meek voice.
"Sister Hua, you are so wise and always thinks about others.", Jing Li praised her.
" Geez, what a green lotus.", Ji Musaid under her breadth. Then, she turned to her, I mean, Princess Ling Siyue's mother in law.
"You, lawless woman.. I am the greatest
authority in the country only second to the Emperor. Even the Empress needs to pay her respect to me. If I say then she too has to kneel in front of me.
But, you are just a Princess Consort and a Princess of a decreased country who was greedy and betrayal ran in the blood of your countrymen. You still have the power to stand high and mighty.", Kin Fie roared.
Ji Mu was caught off guard as Kin Fie shouted at her being from the deceased and all those negative things.
"Your highness, mind your words. You are an elder who should treat every child equally and what are saying about my country?
Haha... our great emperor only had one wife , the empress and was completely in love with her. Our empire's princes worked together like five fingers forming a hand.
Your own husband has so many wives, so many children. And, they will soon fight for the throne, unlike our princes who does not want any throne. ", Ji Mu was stimulated.
She continued, " Our Emperor Ling ascended the throne with his own capabilities unlike Emperor Jing who had killed his brothers. In addition, even if we had Forbidden City, even if the officials and our many royal ancestors had greedy heart and no conscience, it does not mean that we are similar to them. "
The trio were staring at her.
'Tu Ji told me that this princess was not ready to deal with. If offended, she could do anything. But, I am also Kin Fie and her mother in law. ', Consort Kin thought.
'This woman is so outrageous. Sister Hua was right when she said that she would destroy our reputation. I have to talk about it to big brother. His life is at stake. ', Jing Li thought.
'This bitch is hard to deal with.. ugh.. but, I am also the daughter of the left Prime Minister. The Second Princess Consort title is mine.
If I have to kill her then also it will be no big problem. All the woman who has tried to be with his highness have either been killed by him or aunt. But, when someone talks about him to her friends in tea parties, I have been the one killing them. I will collect her tongue like I have collected others and add to my collection. ', Kin Hua Jing thought.
"Princess Consort, we understand your mood as you must be angry as you had not consummate your marriage even when the prince was with you in the wedding chamber. But, you can not remove your anger on aunt, she is an elder. ", Kin Hua Jing bit her lower lip so hard that her eyes were filled with tears.
"Sister Hua, please control yourself.", Jing Like tried to comfort her.
"Thinking about it, does she know that I am the one who tried to prevent her from having the wedding night and also spread rumors, so that's why she is raging. ", Kin Fie mumbled.
It was not heard by the anyone around but her slight frown which had appeared on her forehead for a few seconds made things cleared for Ji Mu.
Meanwhile, a maid asked the permission to enter and came inside the hall with a cushion in hands. It had a white cloth on it which was stained in blood.
"What is it? ", Jing Li asked.
The maid bowed and replied, "Your highness, his highness, the second prince instructed us to show you this when he entered the palace. It was handed over by his personal eunuch."
Kin Fie's face had a tough expression and Kin Hua Jing almost wanted to strangle the maid to death. But, Jing Li did not understand the meaning behind it.
Jing Li turned to Kin Hua Jing sitting next to her, and asked, "What is it, sister Husband? "
"This... ", she did not have words to explain.
"Let me educate you Princess Jing Li as your second sister in law, it is my duty.", Ji Mu said. Kin Fie's frown deepened and Kin Hua Jing's face turned red with anger.
" It is the proof that his highness had sent to testify that last night we have consummated our marriage.", Ji Mu said proudly. Internally, she was cursing that prince as she had not even seen her highness's face and producing the proof of their wedding night.
"What? ", Jing Li turned towards Kin Hua Jing for confirmation.
She lowered her eyes as she could not accept the fact. The trio had to accept it as it was sent by the personal eunuch of the prince, I'd it was anyone else then they could have denied.
Kin Fie was raging to see her beloved niece and the daring Princess Consort, before she could say anything, Ji Mu cut her words.
" Imperial Consort Kin, in our country, the tea offering ceremony is done. The tea is offered by the bride to the groom's parents in the presence of groom.
If groom is not present then, the ceremony does not fulfill. The cases for the absence of the groom in the ceremony marks that either the wife does not respect her new husband or her husband is on the verge of death. ", she said in a loud voice.
"You.. ", the trio spoke at the same time.
'I have to speak about it, as the Emperor and Second Prince are coming here. Your highness be safe.', Ji Mu thought.
In the morning, Ling Siyue had told her to speak mighty words to confirm her identity to this mother in law. She included that we had to start our plan to destroy the Imperial Family . She would start it with the Kin Fie as she was the mother of the person who had killed her brothers. For this, she had to make doubts in the relationship of the Emperor and Imperial Consort.
Entering of this maid was the sign for her that she had to start her act that told that KinFie did not respect his son and the emperor.
Ji Mu cut their words by speaking ahead, "And tea is offered to the both parents. If only one is there then, it means that the other has died already. Her Majesty, Consort Kin wanted me to serve to serve her tea in the absence of the Prince's father, does this mean that the Emperor King has already died?"
"Prospertous, who said I am dead? ", a loud voice came from behind.
Everyone looked towards the door and found The Emperor King and Jing Yang standing there.
The trio shuddered to see him here except for Ji Mu. 'Ooooooo... So the this prince got his handsomeness from this handsome geezer. If it was not cleared that he is the old emperor I will have considered her as the Prince's big brother. So handsome... ', Ji Mu could not help but think.
'Ooof.... Our Ling Emperor was nothing in front of this hot geezer. It is no wonder that there are so many consorts and concubines in his harem.'
"Your Majesty, I was not informed of your arrival.. these servants of Intoxicated Pavilion needs a beating.", she stood from her chair and went to him.
Jing Li and Kin Hua Jing also stood from there chair.
"I, Ling Siyue, the second Princess Consort pay my respect to his majesty, the Emperor Jing, the father of Binhai. ", Ji Mu saluted him.
The trio were shocked as they had forget to pay their respect. Even if she was the beloved Imperial Consort, she still had to the pay respect to the first authority in the country who was the Emperor.
The Emperor glared at the trio, especially his consort Kin Fie.
