Chapter 944 Punishment (1)
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Mingyu, eager to pick blossoms, enlisted the guards’ help. They wandered through the vibrant peach forest.
Suddenly, Zhou Ying heard whispers. “Second Miss, are you certain about this within the Mother G.o.d Temple? What if the Mother G.o.d discovers and punishes us?”
“Don’t be ridiculous,” the Second Miss scoffed. “She isn’t all-seeing. Here, take this powder. Discreetly slip it into her tea tonight.”
“Yes, Second Miss,” the guard replied, hurrying away before Zhou Ying could notice.
Using her divine sense, Zhou Ying easily tracked the nervous servant and the cunning Second Miss with a malicious glint in her eyes. She then followed them to another young woman, seemingly downtrodden.
Concerned, Zhou Ying steered Mingyu away and soon arrived at the spot where she and Gu Chengrui had fought Mrs. Tian.
Mingyu paused, taking in the sea of pink blossoms. “In a year or two, this will be a popular spot for scholars, ladies, and even matchmaking.”
Zhou Ying teased, “Why not call it a place for lovers’ rendezvous?”
Mingyu, scandalized, countered, “Vulgar!”
“Vulgar has its charm,” Zhou Ying smirked. “Besides, peach blossoms symbolize romance, wouldn’t you agree?”
Mingyu, speechless, simply changed the subject. “Alright, enough. It’s time to find a rest spot. My feet are killing me.”
“Mama, I can walk!” Zhuangzhuang whined, struggling to climb down.
“Careful, darling,” Zhou Ying warned. “Snakes might be out. Stay close.” Zhuangzhuang settled down, joining Chenchen in their playful search for stones. Zhou Ying and Mingyu chatted for a while, then began their descent as the midday sun dipped lower.
On their way down, they encountered Gu Chenglin and his group. They descended together, parting ways at the mountain’s foot.
Back in her room after dinner, Zhou Ying couldn’t shake the afternoon’s eavesdropping. She wouldn’t tolerate such scheming within the Mother G.o.d Temple. This young lady needed a lesson.
Using her divine sense again, Zhou Ying saw the young woman leaving the dining hall, looking troubled. Her servant rushed to her side, leading her toward a secluded part of the forest. The young woman soon fainted.
The servant gave two meows, summoning a man and the Second Miss.
“Cousin,” the Second Miss addressed the man, “I did as you requested. Now, you need to hold up your end of the bargain.”
“Don’t worry,” the man smirked. “The academy closes in three days. Wait at the designated spot, and I guarantee you’ll become the imperial brother-in-law’s woman.”
“I won’t bother you now, then,” the Second Miss said, dismissing the servant before leaving.
Witnessing their plot, Zhou Ying delivered a swift lightning bolt, causing both the Second Miss and her servant to cry out and faint.
Jolted from his sinister plan, the man looked around in terror and attempted to flee.
Zhou Ying boomed in the voice of the Mother G.o.ddess, another bolt of lightning accompanying her command. “The Mother G.o.d Temple is sacred ground.. Do not defile it!”
