Flower Stealing Master

Chapter 329: The helpless princess

"Otherwise, what can he do?" Madame Tang smiled sadly, "He has his own family to consider, and it would be of no benefit to anyone if he acts against that man. If he pretends not to know, at least he can keep everything he already has."

"He's really not a man." Song Qingshu said angrily.

"Yes, he’s really not a man. Not long after that, he hid at the front line and rarely comes home. I'm afraid he felt that seeing me at home would hurt his fragile self-esteem." Madame Tang's tone was full of resentment .

Song Qingshu frowned, and tired to explain, "Maybe he’s trying his best to get revenge in the future."

Madame Tang was taken aback, but she quickly shook her head, "Even if he really tries his best, it would only be for his dignity as a man, not for me. When I was most helpless, he chose to leave silently, and I will never forget that for the rest of my life. I will never forget that feeling."

Song Qingshu remained silent and didn't know how to comfort this pitiful woman.

"Actually, although I was annoyed at his cowardice and incompetence before, I could still understand his helplessness, until today…" Madame Tang coldly said.

"What happened today?" Song Qingshu asked curiously.

"Young Master, who do you think was the one who hired those people who tried to kill me today?" Madame Tang closed her eyes, and two streaks of tear slowly slid down her cheek.

"This…"

Since Madame Tang was the secret lover of that important person, there must be no one in the Jin Empire who would be so blind to offend her. From Yang Miaozhen's tone before, it was clear that someone had hired them to kill Madame Tang. And, based on what Madame Tang was saying, the murderer was already obvious.

Song Qingshu hesitated for a moment, then said, "It may not be him, maybe it's the wife of that man. Maybe she got jealous after seeing that her husband was obsessed with… you, and she wanted to send someone to get rid of you to win back her husband's favor."

"The Young Master is kind-hearted, so you are only thinking of the positive things." Madame Tang opened her eyes, stretched out her hand and gently stroked Song Qingshu's cheek.

Song Qingshu cautiously shrank back, and said, "I'm just talking about the facts."

"I hope so too…" Madame Tang's eyes flashed blankly, "It's a pity that the Young Master forgot. At the beginning, it was… his wife who had facilitated the incident. With her age and status, all her considerations are based on interests. How could she compete with a lowly woman like me and feel jealous?"

"Madame, please tell me who that man is. This Song is not talented, and my martial arts may not be that high, but I will try my best to kill him and avenge you." Song Qingshu hated women's tears the most, not to mention that in the near future, the Jin Empire would inevitably be his enemy, so it would also be good to get rid of a big shot in advance.

Hearing Song Qingshu's words, Madame Tang's eyes were full of surprise, and she stared blankly at Song Qingshu, "We only met by chance, why are you being so kind to me?"

Zhao Min who was under the blanket also kicked him angrily to show her dissatisfaction.

"I can't let Madame lose her confidence in all the men in the world." Song Qingshu lightly replied.

Madame Tang's heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and she continued to stare blankly at Song Qingshu, "Can you give me a hug?"

Song Qingshu hesitated for a moment, but finally stretched out his hand to hug Madame Tang.

Pressing her face against Song Qingshu's chest, Madame Tang quietly listened to his heartbeat, and her mood gradually calmed down, "Thank you, but I won't put you in danger."

"You don't have to worry about me. With my movement technique, even if the assassination fails, they won't be able to catch me." Song Qingshu actually regretted making that promise on the spur of the moment, but in life, one must be prepared to make some irrational choices, otherwise what's the point living?

"Young Naster's martial arts is world-class, so naturally I don't need to worry about you…" Madame Tang suddenly hugged Song Qingshu tightly, "But you don’t have to worry. The women on our grasslands don't have such a strong concept of chastity, aren’t I just someone else's secret lover? Well, it’s not a big deal. This will ensure the safety of my family and the prosperity of my husband.”

“Of course, there’s also some risks. If that person dies, some of his political opponents will think of using the relationship between me and him to completely eradicate his power group. Without a backer, whether it is this Concubine or my relatives, we won’t have a good end."

Madame Tang was born in a Jin aristocratic family, and she had long been accustomed to the waves in the imperial court, so she was able see the results so thoroughly.

Song Qingshu was stunned, as he hadn't thought about the matter to that extent. And, only then did he understand how dreary the reality of political struggle could be.

"Do you think this Concubine is a dirty woman?" Seeing that Song Qingshu was silent, Madame Tang worriedly raised her head.

"No, this Song was just impressed by Madame's words. I truly admire Madame's courage." Song Qingshu sighed, "Since Madame has already seen through everything, why tell me these secrets?"

"I don't know either…" Madame Tang blankly shook her head, and smiled bitterly, "Maybe I just wanted to let you know and arouse the Young Master's pity. The Young Master has a natural reassuring smell, I don't know what came over me, I just ended up telling you everything."

"Madame's late-night visit is really full of bad intentions." Song Qingshu joked.

Madame Tang blushed, and said embarrassingly, "I was just worried that the Young Master won’t be able to have a good rest."

"That's quite the unique reason…" Song Qingshu said with a smile, "Madame, how will you make me rest well?"

"Young Master, you already know, so why you are asking…" Madame Tang said in a faint voice, as her tone gradually became lower, and the bed was suddenly full of ambiguity.

‘This pair of adulterer and adulteress are flirting again!’ Zhao Min under the quilt was furious and secretly regretted her decision to stay. If she had known that this kind of thing would happen, she would have gone back to her room when Madame Tang came in just now, so as not to spoil their fun. But now, she could only sulk with a stomach full of anger.

"Young Master, do you know what this Concubine fears the most?" Madame Tang softly spoke up.

"This… excuse me for being stupid, I really can't guess it." Song Qingshu smiled wryly.

"This Concubine is most afraid of loneliness." Madame Tang let out a deep sigh.

"What?" Song Qingshu was dumbfounded.

"That person will only visit me when he misses my body, and he comes and goes according to his whims. My husband also dislikes me and leaves me alone. In such a big mansion, when the night is quiet, this Concubine feels… a coldness deep down in my bones." Madame Tang said bitterly, "Sometimes I think, those two men ruined my life, so why should I let myself suffer like this? Although I can't take revenge directly, I can use my own way to get revenge"

Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, and he felt his throat turn dry, "How does Madame plan to take revenge on them?"

A blush flashed across Madame Tang's skin, but she didn't answer, she pulled Song Qingshu's hand in from her skirt, and slightly parted hair red lips, "That's… like this."

Feeling the mature woman's body that was immensely soft and attractive, Song Qingshu's body trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but Madame Tang firmly held his hand, with her eyes full of pleading, "Please, don't refuse, I…"

Hearing Madame Tang's slightly choked voice, Song Qingshu's heart softened for a moment, he hesitated, but he didn't pull out his hand in the end.

"Young Master Song, you are injured and not suitable for activities. Let me serve you today." Madame Tang put her lips close to his ear, softly whispered, and then began with gentle kisses on the neck.

‘Oh my god!’ Zhao Min in the bed sighed in her heart, ‘This ba*tard didn't refuse, did he forget that I'm still here?’

With the warm and fragrant figure in his arms, he was able to feel the mature and soft body to the fullest, and his nose was filled with the fragrance of this delicious fruit, that was ripe for picking.

Song Qingshu sighed, if he didn't have more important things to do, he might really have been unable to hold back tonight.

"Song Qingshu, you ba*tard!" Hearing Madame Tang's sultry moan, Zhao Min couldn't bear it any longer. She threw off the quilt and planned to rush out. Unexpectedly, her waist suddenly felt numb, and Song Qingshu had already tapped on her acupoint, and she had no choice but to limply lay down on the bed again.

"She is?" Madame Tang was shocked when she saw Zhao Min who had suddenly jumped out. But, before she had time to say more, Song Qingshu tapped on her sleeping acuoint, and she also passed out.

Finding Madame Tang lying beside him, Song Qingshu stared at Zhao Min with malicious intent, which made her panick and she hurriedly said, "You… what do you want to do?"

"The Princess suddenly jumped out, and ruined my good fun. Shouldn’t the Princess pay me back?" Song Qingshu said with an amused expression.

"I… I’ll pay, I’ll pay! After returning to the Ruyang Palace, this Princess will definitely give you ten, ah no, a hundred beauties." Noticing that Song Qingshu's expression was very different from before, Zhao Min said in a panic.

"Speaking of beauties, who in the entire prairie can compare to the Princess?" Song Qingshu said with a wicked smile.

"Who said that? Princess Xiangxiang from Huibu, Pucha Alihu and Wanyan Chongjie from the Jin Empire, Empress Xiao Guanyin of Liao Empire, and Princess Yelu Nanxian… they are all famous beauties on the prairie, and this Princess promises you that I will give them all to you in the future." Zhao Min was flustered and talked about more than a dozen of the most famous beauties on the prairie, just to escape this calamity.

"The Princess sure can talk big. These women are either from the Jin Empire or the Liao Empire, or they are from the Western Regions. Their identities are either queens or princesses. None of them has a status below a Princess. How can the Princess decide their fate?" Song Qingshu's tone was full of sarcasm.

"In the future when Mongolia will rule the world, these women will be subjugated as sl*aves, so this Princess will naturally decide their fate." Zhao Min's breathing was rapid, and the rapid ups and downs of her chest showed how nervous she was at the moment.

"If Mongolia wants to unify the world, it will take fifty, if not thirty years. At that time, all these so-called beauties will turn into dust. Is the princess trying to trick me?" Song Qingshu pretended to untie her skirt.

"Ah!" Zhao Min screamed and quickly said, "I can give you Princess Xiangxiang first."

"Princess Xiangxiang?" Song Qingshu was taken aback when he heard the words, "Is she in your hands?"

Noticing Song Qingshu's strange expression, Zhao Min finally regained her composure, she turned her head aside, and deliberately didn’t give an answer.

"I don’t care whether she is a Princess or a Queen, after all, it is an illusory thing. It is not as real as the Princess in front of me. The night is long, and I really don't want to sleep. How about this, if the Princess can immediately get someone on this bed, I will replace you with her, and let you go." Song Qingshu looked down at Zhao Min who was lying on the bed.
