The Devious First-Daughter (Web Novel)-Chapter 595: Wu Yao Who Lives Next Door to Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor

Chapter 595 Wu Yao Who Lives Next Door to Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor

Senior concubines were lowly in all mansions, especially in the home of a royal clan like a prince’s mansion. If their names were not recorded on the Royal List, they were the same as the ordinary concubines in the mansion. Although they had the lowliest title, it was still nothing in the eyes of the real royal family.

Therefore, giving the concubines without titles or those with the senior concubine’s title to each other was nothing eventful for the royal clans.

Ning Qingshan was now to enter and live in Prince Xiang’s Manor, but she would only be a senior concubine, even without a madam’s position, so she was most likely to be given to others.

“You are now put under the name of Madam Ling. I remember Madam Ling is now a concubine in the lowest class in the mansion, so her biological daughter can only serve as a concubine now. Then what about you? Do you still expect to be promoted with such a background? You are so lowly, and you also did the lowly thing of picking a fight with a man. More seriously, the man and you once… Do you think Prince Xiang can approve of the thing that he is a cuckold?”

Ning Xueyan continued speaking coldly. Seeing the fierceness and a bit of pain on Ning Qingshan’s face, she spoke word by word.

For Ning Qingshan, the biggest taboo was that she and Ao Xian had had sex previously. Now, Ning Xueyan would speak anything that gave her the most sadness.

She only had hatred toward Ning Qingshan. As expected, it was she who had poisoned Madam Ming, and the reason was so ridiculous. What kind of selfish and vicious person would think like that? She had hated a mother who treated her daughter nicely but didn’t treat her as nicely as she did to her daughter, so she had poisoned her. How venomous she had been! How twisted her mind had been!

She really didn’t know where Ning Qingshan had picked the idea that the whole world must revolve around her. If others were not as nice to her as she imagined, she would not hesitate to kill them.

“Ning Xueyan, you…” Ning Qingshan sprang up angrily.

“Xinmei, slap her!” Ning Xueyan took one step back, and Xinmei answered yes and went forward, striking Ning Qingshan’s face hard twice. Although Xinmei was well-informed and had lots of experiences, it was the first time she had seen a person who had become so vicious at such a young age. And she learned how vicious she was.

Ning Qingshan was slapped so hard that she went back and sat heavily down in the chair, and her beautiful face swelled immediately. As she gritted her teeth, she spat out a tooth. Instantly, her expression turned savage.

Xinmei had a martial arts-practicing experience. When she struck Ning Qingshan, the latter couldn’t bear it, of course.

“Ning Xueyan, how could you… you dare to strike me?” Ning Qingshan covered her mouth, looking at Ning Xueyan with venomous hatred.

“I not only struck you but also want you to see your current status clearly and know if anyone can help you. At the same time, I want you to have a clear mind,” Ning Xueyan looked at Ning Qingshan coldly and said severely.

Standing at the door, Lanning asked the older female servant outside to bring a big pail of water. Xinmei pulled Ning Qingshan up and pressed her head into the water. Instantly, the strong suffocating feeling made Ning Qingshan struggle desperately. She screamed, trying to resist it, but cold water rushed into her mouth time after time, making her almost pass out.

Her chest almost burst. Just when she was about to faint and fall, Xinmei pulled her up.

“Ning Xueyan, you are a bitch…”

Her head was pressed down forcefully again, and she felt the pain again. After this was repeated several times and she was finally pulled up, Ning Qingshan was like a dead dog, lying on the floor. When she saw Ning Xueyan coming over bit by bit, she couldn’t help moving back while shaking. In her eyes, there were not only envy and hatred but also fear.

“Do you see yourself clearly now, Ning Qingshan? If I want to kill you now, it seems no one will come and help you.” With a little hatred in her eyes, Ning Xueyan was looking down at Ning Qingshan, who was drenched in a mess.

Madam Ming had sacrificed so much for her, and that was almost all she had had all her life. Ning Xueyan clearly knew that she had wanted to treat such a woman like her biological mother.

Ning Qingshan was really afraid. Looking at such cruelty, she was extremely afraid. Now she said in a trembling voice, “I… I am the senior concubine of Prince Xiang!”

“So what? Do you believe that I can ask for you and take you out even after you enter Prince Xiang’s Manor and live there? Do you want to come to our Prince Yi’s Manor? Maybe Prince Xiang is quite willing to let you enter Prince Yi’s Manor,” Ning Xueyan said indifferently.

“No, I don’t want… I don’t want!” Ning Qingshan was so frightened that she shook from head to toe. If someone could enter Prince Yi’s Manor, and the person was his cousin, who would stand in line with him, Ao Mingyu would be very happy and agree unhesitatingly. But she knew that she would die if she went there.

Ning Xueyan would not let her off. She would never let her off!

“Who is the woman living next door to Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor?” Ning Xueyan asked with a sneer.

“She is, is Wu Yao, the second aunt of Ya Moqin. After her husband died, she lived there. But she was away for a period of time and then returned to the capital three years ago… If I have anything, I will go to her. She has a close relationship with Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor. Maybe there are still many secrets… you, you should go to her!”

Although Ning Qingshan didn’t know why Ning Xueyan had changed the subject so suddenly, now she was really afraid of seeing her, so when she heard this at the moment, she said whatever she knew, only hoping Ning Xueyan, the demon, to leave and not to torture her here. She knew in despair that no one in the mansion would help her; otherwise, a few messages of Madam Dowager and Ning Zu’an would have been brought here, and someone would have come to take a look.

“This Madam Wu’s voice is so similar to Ya Moqin’s!” This was an ice-cold sigh.

“Yes, yes, their voices are very similar. When I saw Ya Moqin the first time, I was shocked. Their voices were so similar that they were almost from the same person.” Ning Qingshan didn’t know why Ning Xueyan was so clear about it, but now she told her whatever she knew. Just now, Ning Xueyan had been quite cruel. Now, she was very scared and didn’t dare to refute Ning Xueyan.

Anyway, it was the affair of Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor. Now she hated Grand Tutor Ya.

“Since they think I am the child of Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor, why didn’t they adopt me? Why didn’t they let me be the young lady of Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor? I was born to be the cousin of Third Prince, but I was given to Lord Protector’s Manor. If it had not been for the so-called plots of Grand Tutor Ya, I would be living in Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor, safe and sound, and I wouldn’t have met Ning Xueyan or been reduced to a senior concubine.”

She hated Grand Tutor Ya and Honored Consort Ya. It was they who had wronged her. She was the Great Elder Princess of the previous dynasty, with an exceptionally noble identity. She had been to live in their Ya Manor. It was an honor she had given them, but they hadn’t been grateful. Instead, they had shifted the responsibility, carrying her to Lord Protector’s Manor. Therefore, she had such an end.

“Wu Yao is a member of Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor?” Ning Xueyan barely closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, they were still ice-cold. Now, she was almost sure that Wu Yao was the woman who had been with her mother in her previous life and had lived in the Ning Manor for some time and then disappeared.

Later, her mother had died, and she had come to the capital in a hurry. Probably, it had connections with the woman, which meant that it had relations with Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor.

“On the surface, Wu Yao was the relative of Grand Tutor Ya’s Manor, but in fact, she had an affair with Ya Moqin’s father. I saw him in Wu Yao’s place more than once. He was a brother-in-law, but he appeared in her wife’s younger sister’s house from time to time. No matter what, it was abnormal. And the two held an intimate attitude toward each other. Maybe they only kept it from Ya Moqin’s mother.”

Now, Ning Qingshan answered every question asked. As for those Ning Xueyan didn’t ask, she would also confess them.

Out of the Foggy Courtyard, Ning Xueyan told Xinmei to ask Madam Dowager for leave, and she went to her Bright Frost Garden. Now, she was Prince Yi’s princess, the only one of his. Although Madam Dowager was dissatisfied with her for not coming here to pay her greetings after return, she could not do anything to her due to this reason.

Now she didn’t have the mood to show her “filial piety” to Madam Dowager.

In her previous and present lives, her two adoptive mothers had been quite nice to her. They had almost sacrificed all their lives for her, hoping she could grow up safely. Without knowing each other, the two of them had done the same thing of hiding everything from her and hadn’t told her real family background. She knew that they had done it with goodwill and for her good.

But now, the fact had been pushed to her, so she had to know the fact clearly.

Wen Xueran, the Princely Heir of Commandery Princess Min who almost knew everything and was clearer about it than she was, was never a playboy who was good for nothing.

She always thought that he was a dangerous man. In her previous life, he had been so, and now he was even more like that. More importantly, he didn’t seem to stay behind the scenes anymore, and he was approaching her step by step.

In her previous life, he had been looking for Senior Nun Jing Kong. Presumably, he had also been looking for her—Ning Ziying. In this life, she didn’t know how Wen Xueran had found her, but she thought that he should be quite clear about her identity now. As for Ning Qingshan, it was possible that he had truly mistaken her for someone else previously. Of course, another possibility was that she was the one he had trained on purpose.

He was fathomless! So, she didn’t want to have any connections with him. No matter what he was intended to do, she didn’t want to have relations with him. She was just a woman. Since her two adoptive mothers had chosen to hide her family background, there must be the most important reason, so she preferred to believe the two adoptive mothers who had made sacrifices for her.

“Prince Yi’s princess, what a coincidence! I didn’t expect to meet you here.” Two people appeared from the crossing ahead, with one being Wen Xueran Ning Xueyan had remembered just now and the other beside him being Ning Huaijing. This was the first time Ning Xueyan had met with Wen Xueran since the last time.

When the seductive and stunning young man looked at any woman with his tender eyes, the woman’s face would turn hot, and her heart would beat fast. Ning Xueyan’s heart beat fast, but her face was not hot. Instead, she felt it had become a little cold. In her eyes, that beautiful smile had no romance.

“How could you get the time to come to our Lord Protector’s Manor today, Princely Heir Wen?” Ning Xueyan asked gently as she stood still. Her eyes were indifferent and calm as if the words Wen Xueran had just said hadn’t affected her at all.

“I accompanied Yunheng here, but he wanted to remain alone in the Cloud Reflection Courtyard for a while, so I asked the Second Young Master to keep me company walking around in the mansion. I didn’t expect you to come back, Prince Yi’s princess. This is our fate.” Wen Xueran had a smile, showing the usual affection in his seductive eyes, and pointed at the pavilion beside them.

“Our meeting is rare. Let’s go there and sit for a while, shall we?”

“OK!” Ning Xueyan took a deep breath and nodded. As for a few things, she had to face them. Since she was not going to avoid them, she had made her decision.
