Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 438: Concubine
“Heaven, so the flower garden in the harem is huge. If we come during the day, it will definitely be more beautiful from now.”
“It's also beautiful at night. Too bad it rained today. I really want to dance among the flowers. I wonder if I can lure butterflies?”
“Rain has been very heavy for the past two days, and a lot of flowers have fallen. Too bad.”
“Because there are so many flowers, it would be better to make it into a fragrance bag or let the Pastor make it into a cheek-brushing powder.”
A group of women became emotional as they spoke.
At this moment, Feng Lan deliberately grinned and said, “Did you not know that the king told someone to gather all the flowers here to brew the Hundred Flowers Wine?”
As for who it brewed for, Feng Lan did not need to say it explicitly because everyone already knew.
Everyone looked at Feng Ling.
At this moment, everyone had already walked into the pavilion. There were soft pillows on the chair and fruits and snacks on the table.
Feng Ling sat on one of the wooden chairs, then smiled at everyone and asked, “Do you want to drink?”
The women were at first stunned, then looked at him expectantly.
“Prime, can we drink?”
“Of course.”
Feng Ling looked at the butler.
The butler quickly said, “I'll ask someone to bring wine to the ladies soon.”
With that, he went to give instructions.
Feng Ling glanced at everyone and said to them, “Everything, be careful when admiring the flowers at night. Also, it is best not to go to the lake. Be careful not to slip and fall. No clothes here for you to change.”
The women quickly replied, “Ya, Reverend.”
After responding, everyone went to admire the flowers.
Feng Ling continued to sit there without moving.
Feng Lan also sat down. He held Feng Ling's arm and said in a persuasive tone, “Sister, since everyone goes to admire the flowers, let's go as well.”
At this point, he lowered his voice and said, “Maybe those people said something behind us. Why don't we go and listen?”
Feng Ling glanced at him and said lightly, “Please. I'll wait for the wine to come.”
Feng Lan seemed to struggle for a while before saying, “Alright, if anyone dares to criticize you behind your back, I will definitely help you teach them a lesson.”
After saying that, he released Feng Ling and walked towards the crowd.
Feng Ling watched as Feng Lan walked away and the corners of her lips curved up slightly. He called out to the butler and instructed him in a low voice.
The butler quickly nodded and left.
Feng Ling had just been sitting in the pavilion for a while when a group of female servants entered with trays filled with wine.
Wine bottles are beautiful blue and white porcelain bottles. They look small, beautiful, and very beautiful.
One of the maids brought a tray and walked over to Feng Ling.
Feng Ling picked up a bottle of wine, a glass of wine, and poured herself a cup.
The servants left after putting all the wine on the stone table.
Just as Feng Ling was about to drink her third cup, a woman entered from outside the pavilion.
That person walked up to Feng Ling and bowed to her. “Women's download.”
“Yi Xuan, come and drink with me.”
Yi Xuan is the daughter of the prime minister. She was educated and sensible, typical of women from wealthy families.
He walked leisurely to the stone table and also picked up the bottle and cup of wine. He came and sat down beside Feng Ling, pouring a cup of wine to toast to Feng Ling.
“Principle, Yi Xuan toast to you.”
Feng Ling clinked the cup with him and the two of them each drank a cup of wine.
Only then did Feng Ling ask, “Everyone went to admire the flowers. Why don't you go?”
“Map, i..”.
Yi Xuan stopped talking. After a while, he said with a red face, “Prince, may I ask a question?”
“Ask.”
“Erm... will.... king accept empress?”
Feng Ling narrowed her eyes. “Why are you asking me this?”
Yi Xuan immediately stood up and knelt down in front of Feng Ling. “Prince, I.. I want to be the queen consort of the king. Please fulfill my wish.”
Feng Ling looked at the kneeling woman in front of her and realized that there was a black aura on her body. The corners of his lips slightly curved. She suddenly tapped her forehead with her finger and said, “If you want to become the king's empress, there's no point in asking me. You should ask if Your Majesty agrees. Even if I agree, there is no point if he does not agree.”
“Eh?”
As the black aura on Yi Xuan was removed, his body suddenly shook. He never thought of expressing those thoughts in front of the priest. He quickly kowtowed at Feng Lan agitatedly. “I crossed the line. Please don't blame me, Reverend.”
“Build.” Feng Ling stood up from her chair and said to Yi Xuan, “I'll go see what others are doing.”
As he spoke, he walked towards the corridor outside the pavilion.
“Sure, but only if you help me do something later.”
“Good.”
In another pavilion.
Several young women stood in the pavilion and admired the flowers as they discussed gently.
“Before, I always thought that this Hundred Flowers Garden was built by the king for the High Priestess to admire flowers. I didn't expect him to use these flowers to brew wine. The king loved Priestess very much.”
“I wonder if the king will receive a concubine after he marries the High Priestess?”
At this time, Yi Xuan walked over and said, “Even if the king wants to take the empress, we don't have much of a chance.”
“Why?”
The women were angry.
“In terms of family background and appearance, we are not bad either. If the king wants to receive an empress, who else can he accept if not us?”
“Fast. If the king really accepts an empress, I think all of us here will have a chance.”
Yi Xuan shook his head. “You're wrong. Guardian Feng was the one who had the greatest chance.”
When the women heard this, they all turned to look at it.
At the same time, they looked angry.
“Why? Is our identity lower than a Guard?”
“Accurate once. The Guardian and the High Priestess are twin brothers. They look very similar. How could the king still want a Guardian after he has a High Priestess?”
“In addition, the Guardian is equivalent to the daughter of a third-rate official. Its status was also much different from that of High Priestess.”
When he heard this, Feng Ling, who had been hiding, saw a figure standing behind a pillar in the corridor on the other side. The smile on his face widened.
Feng Lan had not expected these women to see him like this behind his back.
He always thought that his status was very high. He had not expected that in front of this group of women, he was actually inferior to them.
Especially since they were actually saying that there was a huge gap between him and Feng Ling.
These words made him lose his senses out of jealousy and hate. The black aura on his body could not be blocked either.
He walked into the pavilion.
When the women heard footsteps, they involuntarily turned around.
Seeing that it was Feng Lan, some of them were a little embarrassed. After all, it was inappropriate for them to criticize the other person behind their back.
Some of them looked at each other and were about to leave.
However, Feng Lan said in a smiling voice, “Saudari, why are you leaving? I happen to want to find someone to play with me.”
The women thought that since this person was the sister of the High Priestess, they had to give her face, so they stopped.
Yi Xuan also asked with a smile, “Guardian Feng, where do you want to go play? The rain seems to be getting heavier now. You definitely can't go picking flowers.”
“I will not pick flowers. I just realized that the rain in the pavilion by the lake was a very beautiful sight. Sister, why don't we go there to see it?”
“Emm..”
The women were a bit hesitant. The priest had instructed them not to go to the lake now.
Feng Lan glanced at them and suddenly said with a thoughtful expression, “It's a shame if you don't see it, sister. The royal palace lake has a beautiful view. Even at night, it was so beautiful that it was suffocating. If you don't go see it, you might never have a chance again.”
Feng Lan's words made the women feel a little uncomfortable.
What does he mean by ‘may never have another chance’?
Perhaps the king would take them as concubines and they could then see the scenery every day.
Did this fellow really think that the king would accept her as his empress and deliberately utter these words in front of them?
At this moment, Yi Xuan stood up and said, “Since Guard Feng said that the night scene in the pavilion by the lake is so beautiful, why don't we go see it? Everyone can not go to the lake.”
Others thought about it and agreed with it.
They followed Feng Lan to the lake pavilion.
The others were all in other pavilions or admiring the flowers in the corridors. Feng Lan deliberately led them to an empty place.
When they reached the lake, they could not see anyone because of the forest.
When they reached the pavilion, the women realized that they could not see anything at night.
“Guardian Feng, you are playing us. No beautiful views here at all!”
“Accurate once. It's pitch-black everywhere. Where is that beautiful sight?”
“Sisters, don't worry. The crystal light doesn't light up here. Wait, I'll ask someone to turn it on immediately.”
After saying that, Feng Lan lifted her skirt and stepped back.
When he reached a place where no one could see him, he stopped. He went to the back of the large tree, before coming out with Feng Ling's appearance.
Feng Lan, who had turned into Feng Ling, revealed a sinister smile and walked into the pavilion.
