Chapter 994: Chapter 996: Unfilial Son (7)

Cai Wei slowly walked to a chair and sat down, she looked at the two women and asked, "What are your names, and how old are you?"

The maid in light green clothes bowed and said softly, "Replying to Miss, I am Madam Lian, and I am sixteen years old this year."

The other, wearing a floral open-collared shirt, also bowed and said tenderly, "Madam Lian pays respects to Miss. Replying to Miss, I am seventeen years old!"

In her memory, the girls at Shouma Pavilion were mostly young, referred to as concubines, generally around thirteen or fourteen years old, with many around ten, and even seven or eight years old was not unusual. However, they all had to be pure, beautiful, and clean, with agile minds. After entering Shouma Pavilion, they began to learn singing, instruments, and poetry, specifically studying how to please men—essentially, they were being cultivated as qualified concubines or first-class maids. Lady Mu Bai and Lady Li, however, had selected girls who were two to three years older than usual. It seemed they feared choosing girls too young for their father to handle, which would make it impossible to drive a wedge between him and their mother!

Cai Wei laughed coldly, "What delightful girls in the prime of your beauty, do you know what this old man bought you for?"

Madam Lian said tenderly, "Grandmother instructed us to wait upon the House Masters..."

Cai Wei asked, "Then do you know who I am?"

Madam Lian said, "I heard that Miss is King Qin’s unfinalized Royal Consort. Yesterday, when King Qin proposed, the entire Capital was stirred!"

"Hehe——"

Cai Wei let out a cold laugh, then suddenly stopped, a fierce look flashing in her eyes. She said ominously, "Since you know who I am, guess whether I would allow anyone who troubles my mother to live in this world?"

Seeing the sudden vicious look on Cai Wei’s face and hearing her words, Madam Lian and Lady Mei immediately became frightened, hurriedly knelt down, and kept kowtowing, pleading, "Miss, spare our lives, we dare not anymore, please spare us..."

The sound of kowtowing, one after another, made their scalps oily! Seeing that it was almost enough, Cai Wei said, "Enough! Seeing how pitiful you are, this Miss will point out a way for you to live."

The two said, "We will do whatever Miss commands!"

At this moment, as long as they could save their lives, they would do anything. Everyone in the Capital knew that this Miss was the apple of King Qin’s eye. If she wanted their lives, it would be easier than crushing two ants!

"It’s simple, just use your skills to help me with something..."

Cai Wei waved them over and signalled them to come closer. The two obediently moved closer and Cai Wei whispered a few words into their ears. Then, she took out a green porcelain medicine bottle from her embrace and handed it to them.

"I will be responsible for getting rid of those two women tomorrow. You must seize the opportunity to act at home. After the deed is done, everyone in the Manor must know about it. Then, this Miss will return your servitude contracts to you and give each of you three hundred taels of silver."

The two had known ever since they entered Shouma Pavilion that such a day would come, and they had mentally prepared themselves, especially when they heard they would get their servitude contracts back and receive three hundred taels of silver. There was no way they wouldn’t agree, and they immediately accepted!

After making arrangements, Cai Wei sent the two to the servants’ quarters to sleep. She herself smirked inwardly. Lady Mu Bai, Lady Li, let me see how you scheme malevolently and harbor ill intentions. Tomorrow, I’ll truly disgust you, and you will suffer!
