Chapter 67 The empress dowager’s harsh conditions (1)

“Wishing empress dowager good health!”

Murong Qi Qi paid her respects to Dongfang Lan according to how Feng Yu had taught her.

Murong Qi Qi could sense the hostility Dongfang Lan had against her, which was related to the grudges of the previous generation. She, more or less, had an understanding of it. So she cannot let the other party find a thorn in her etiquette!

“En!”

Murong Qi Qi’s etiquette was at its place. The gestures were generous without losing nobility. Dongfang Lan couldn’t pick any faults. Therefore, she nodded slightly so as to show her satisfaction.

“You are a child who knows etiquette. You’ve been trained well!”

“Thanking empress dowager!”

Although she couldn’t pick out any faults, but this didn’t mean that Dongfang Lan would let Murong Qi Qi off. However, she’s an empress dowager. If she really made matters difficult for Murong Qi Qi, not only would she offend Xi Qi, but also let people make a controversy of it and say she is small-minded. Fortunately, she prepared earlier. That’s why she brought along these two beauties.

Among these two beauties, Murong Qi Qi has seen one. It’s Wanyan Bao Zhu, Bei Zhou’s princess and Bei Zhou’s flower. The other is the prime minister’s granddaughter. People call her the most talented woman of Bei Zhou, Mu Yu Die.

The two both have good feelings towards Feng Cang. Mu Yu Die was twenty years old and hadn’t married yet. She was bent on waiting for Feng Cang. Since Dongfang Lan brought them here, it’s apparent that she didn’t want to make Murong Qi Qi look good.

“I heard that princess came from a scholarly family. Don’t know what kind of books princess usually reads?”

The one asking is Mu Yu Die. She has a white face, dignified features. Her body has a scholarly aura. Plus, the fact that she was wearing white, she looked like an orchid on a mountain stream. Very elegant.

However, relying on the fact that her grandfather is the prime minister, Mu Yu Die’s eyes has a hint of harsh aristocratic pride, ruining her overall beauty and making it her flaw.

The other party was acting so aggressive in front of so many people. The empress dowager must’ve given her permission. Murong Qi Qi didn’t know which rumors about her these people know. But in a situation where she doesn’t know the other party’s bottom line, going head to head isn’t a good idea.

Thinking till here, Murong Qi Qi answered somewhat ‘cowardly’: “Woman with no talent is virtuous. I only know a few words.”

After Murong Qi Qi’s words fell, there was laughter. The one who laughed is none other than Mu Yu Die. She had long heard that this Murong Qi Qi was a rubbish of ignorance. Originally, she wanted to embarrass her today; let her become a fool in public. She didn’t expect that she (MQQ) would admit it all on her own.

Know only a few words? Then, doesn’t this mean that she is no different from farmers?! How can such a person be worthy of Feng Cang? She is not even worthy to clean Feng Cang’s shoes!

“What, does this lady feel that what I’m saying isn’t right?”

Seeing the sarcasm in the other party’s eyes, Murong Qi Qi acted as if she didn’t understand. Her eyes were clear and her smile was like rainbow. It’s so clean, it’s refreshing.

“Before the departure, my mother repeatedly told me that women without talent were virtuous. Instead of reading those poetry and literature, it’s better to learn how to manage the house, how to be a qualified wife and how to obey the husband and teach the children. After marrying, obey the husband. Only husband is my sky. Should listen to husband in every way. Can it be that you think this isn’t right?”

Murong Qi Qi’s words made Dongfang Lan feel very comfortable. Three obeys and four virtues are the essential qualities of a woman. Of course, women must see their husband as the sky. Why does she need to understand so much? It’s more practical and reliable to be good to the husband and teach the children! It seemed that Murong Qi Qi’s mother isn’t a befuddled person and taught her well.
