Chapter 274: Argunt
Translator: Vesper
Because she was the youngest daughter, their expectations and demands of Wei Zi Xin were not as severe as Wei Ke Xin’s, she would be pampered and unrestrained most of the ti, who would have imagined she would cause such a ruckus after being unrestrained all this ti?
If it was towards soone else and had she not been seen by Xiao Qi Tian, it would not be a serious matter for the Right Senior Minister’s Residence.
The minister’s wife stood and said in a helpless manner: “I’ll go check on that lass.”
”Go on,” Senior Minister Wei waved his hand and sent her off.
Very quickly, only the father-daughter duo, Senior Minister Wei and Wei Ke Xin, were left in the room.
”Father, what younger sister did today was indeed a little overboard,” Wei Ke Xin’s brows furrowed tightly, doing so did not destroy her beauty, but instead would cause others to feel pity for her.
Although people had previously ntioned that she would be a candidate to be the Empress, things could not be certain before the dust settles.
Normally, people would just avoid bringing it up, but that idiot had spoken it out loud, not only so, she had acted willfully and treated human life as grass.
All that was fine, but what was unforgivable was allowing Prince Qi to see it for himself when that idiot brought it up.
Xiao Qi Tian had strongly objected to her being Empress, he could not bring it up openly without fear since he didn’t have any excuse. But she was caught in the act today, as long as Xiao Qi Tian said a few sentences to the Emperor, her dream of becoming the Empress would be crushed.
Just thinking about that, Wei Ke Xin gritted her teeth in hatred.
”Father knows. Xiao Qi Tian must be very angry with today’s incident, I’m afraid he would be brought up to the Emperor,” Minister Wei was also feeling very annoyed, it would be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days and the Emperor would definitely enrich his harem at that ti. If it wasn’t for today’s incident, Wei Ke Xin becoming the Empress would have been settled.
But all of their plans were completely ruined because of a tiny mistake.
”Father, what do you an?”
”Daughter, I’m afraid you’re not fated to be the Empress,” Minister Wei sighed.
Xiao Qi Feng would allow Wei Ke Xin to enter the palace, but he would not make Wei Ke Xin the Empress, she would only be an Imperial Consort.
Wei Ke Xin’s expression was slightly distorted, her target was to be the Empress, as for being an Imperial Consort, to put in ugly words, she would only be a concubine.
”Father, I’m not reconciled to it,” Wei Ke Xin gritted her teeth, she had always set her target to be the Empress but now she was told she was not fated to be the Empress, how could she accept it?
Minister Wei sighed heavily, how could she accept it?
”There would be a chance as long as you enter the palace, do not despair,” Minister Wei could only comfort his daughter that way.
He pampered his younger daughter for such a long ti, although she had caused trouble this ti, he was still reluctant to punish her.
Wei Ke Xin’s expression was not good, she knew it would end up like this.
Every ti Wei Zi Xin did sothing, even if she brought heavy losses to the family, they would not punish her.
”Ke Xin, don’t say that we only love your younger sister, but she......”
”Enough, I know what father wants to say, it’s just that she’s young, you want to concede to her, right?” Wei Ke Xin did not wish to continue listening to Minister Wei, she did not know if she would directly argue with them if she continued listening.
”Ke Xin, why are you......” Minister Wei was feeling stunned as he looked at his daughter.
”What’s wrong with ? She caused trouble making lose the opportunity to be the Empress. After so many years, how much did I sacrifice for this? I’ve lost everything because of her, you still want to forgive her? Why?” Wei Ke Xin did not intend to calculate much, but Minister Wei’s words had caused her heart to turn cold.
”Ke Xin, she is your younger sister,” Minister Wei furrowed his brows.
”Because she is my younger sister, I deserved it and must pay the price of her stupidity? She can do as she pleases because you all pamper her, as for , your requirents are strict, I’ll be punished for a small mistake. I’m wondering, am I really your daughter?” Wei Ke Xin was finally unable to endure it and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind.
Both of them were daughters but why was there such a huge disparity? She had to learn the four arts[1] to make herself more outstanding, she would only gain her parent’s praise at that mont. However, Wei Zi Xin did not need to do so, she could make them smile with joy with just a single sentence.
[1] The four arts, or the four arts of the Chinese scholar, were the four main academic and artistic accomplishnts required of the aristocratic ancient Chinese scholar-gentleman. They are qin (the guqin, a stringed instrunt), qi (the strategy ga of Go), shu (Chinese calligraphy) and hua (Chinese painting).
