Chapter 388: Breaking Off Their Friendship

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Han Qiao did have the intention of beating up Qin Song’s wife.

That was why she ignored her.

When it was almost lunchtime, the deafening sound of horse hooves came from outside.

“The Imperial Decree!”

They heard the loud shout.

The guests were so shocked that they immediately stood up.

Heng Yi stood up and went out to welcome them.

“Eunuch Defu.”

“Marquis of Wanning, greetings.”

Eunuch Defu endured the pain in his back and waited for Heng Yi to prepare the incense table to receive Emperor Zhao Qian’s decree.

Heng Yi knelt down, Han Qiao and Ah-Yao knelt beside him, and so did the others.

“In accordance with the heavens, the Emperor has decreed that the Marquis of Wanning will share your worries…”

The rewards they received were quite a lot.

There was another imperial edict for Heng Yao.

“Marquis, His Majesty’s intention is for you to take a look at the imperial decree first and decide whether to read it out.”

Heng Yi took the imperial edict.

On it was written that Ah-Yao was to be the heir.

Heng Yi turned to look at Heng Yao, who was laughing and sticking out his tongue at Defu.

“The child is still young. This is…”

“The Emperor said that the matters of the prince are all up to the marquis. There is only one prince in the marquis’s residence, and the Emperor only recognizes the third young master.”

What did he say?

Although the imperial edict was not read out, what difference does it make?

It was obvious, especially the gifts the Emperor delivered to Heng Yao. Which of these items wasn’t used by the people in the palace?

Heng Yi put away the imperial edict, “Yao, come and greet Eunuch Defu.”

Ah-Yao ran over and saluted Defu with cupped fists. “Greetings, Fu.”

The child’s eyes were clean and clear, with innocence and mischief.

Yet he was still obedient and sensible.

“Greetings, Third Young Master.”

Although Defu was an eunuch, he represented Emperor Zhao Qian and naturally had to sit at the main table.

One by one, they came over to toast him. Defu smiled and said to Heng Yi, “The Emperor has rewarded some civil officials this time. They will be here soon. I will leave for the capital tomorrow morning.”

Heng Yi didn’t have anything good to give Emperor Zhao Qian, so he decided to write a copy of their plans for Defu to take back.

Because of Emperor Zhao Qian, Wen Yu, Zhang Zhao, and the others were even more determined.

After lunch, Defu went to rest.

Madam Qin looked for Han Qiao hesitantly.

Han Qiao sighed and asked her to sit down.

“Thank you, Madam.” Madam Qin was a little nervous.

“To be honest, I don’t want to see you. No one would like to see someone who gives a concubine to their husband. You are too ambitious, and so is your sister. This is the first time we met, and she ignored me, another living person just like her.”

“What is she relying on? The fact that she’s young and beautiful, and the fact that you are backing her actions?”

“I’m most furious at you. You’re also a woman. If someone gave your husband a concubine, not only for the sake of the concubine but also for the favor of your husband and even for the inheritance of your son, would you be happy?”

“Qin Song does have a concubine, but you haven’t made her officially your husband’s concubine yet. You’re holding onto her contract tightly. You can sell her at any time so that she won’t cause trouble to your family.”

“But if Heng Yi takes a fancy to your sister, I can’t just scold or hit her as I please.”

“Madam Qin, do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. If you genuinely believe that you’re doing this with good intentions, why don’t you make the servant girl beside you your husband’s official concubine, give up your husband, and give away all the property that belongs to your son?”

“That’s why I don’t hate you, but I won’t get close to you in the future. I won’t think of you if anything good comes our way, and I won’t give you the opportunity.”

“As for Qin Song, that’s the Marquis’s business. I won’t interfere. Please return and don’t come to the manor in the future. I don’t like people who scheme against me and covet my position.”

That was as good as breaking off their friendship.

As Qin Song’s wife left the room, her face was as pale as a sheet..
