All Chapters of The Devious First-Daughter: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

The hall was magnificent and could accommodate hundreds of people. A large red and gold carpet covered the ground and dragons were carved on walls and pillars. The emperor was sitting in the middle of the hall and Ao Chenyi was sitting on another chair near the emperor. He still wore a black robe, on which bloody equinox flowers were embroidered. Ao Chenyi was looking at Xia Tian and Ning Zu'an who were kneeling with a faint smile on his face. He was looking forward to what was about to happen. "Your Majesty, my son and daughter-in-law had already been engaged. And the date of their marriage had been fixed. So they were allowed to meet, so that they made a mistake after drinking. It's my duty. Your Majesty, please punish me!" Xia Tian explained in a natural tone while kneeling there and lowering his head with respect. Xia Tian did not pass the buck, but said that Xia Yuhang and Ning Ziyan made a mistake because they were drunk and it was not

"Concubine Ma, when I came here just now, I heard that the First Madam had asked someone to send you meals even if she's in the Buddha Hall. She's really generous. In my opinion, if something happens to you in the future, it must have nothing to do with the First Madam." Lanning glanced at Concubine Ma and spoke slowly while picking up the hamper. This hamper was prepared by Madam Ling! After knowing that, Concubine Ma became shocked and grabbed the handkerchief in her hands. First Madam always returned evil for good. Concubine Ma had bit her and this matter had come to a deadlock, so the First Madam would not let go of Concubine Ma. This was a threat to Concubine Ma! "Fifth Young Lady, don't go. Please do me a favor!" Concubine Ma could no longer control her fear, and couldn't help asking for help in a tremulous voice. Ning Xueyan stopped, but did not turn around. She directly said, "Concubine Ma, if you need any

Ning Xueyan frowned and said in confusion, "Father, does this matter have anything to do with mother? Concubine Ma said that this matter is not what I thought. She also said that she would tell me later when she had the chance." Concubine Ma did not say anything. Knowing that, Madam Dowager and Ning Zu'an looked at each other. They felt shocked, but also relieved. Madam Dowager finally smiled and euphemistically said, "This matter naturally has nothing to do with your mother. The womenfolk's courtyard is under your mother's control. When something like this happened, she is also sad and should take the responsibility. Since Concubine Ma isn't pregnant, I'll let her tell the truth. She dared to lie to me. It's detestable of her!" Madam Dowager dumped the blame on Concubine Ma, even though she knew Madam Ling was behind this evil. In such a big manor, no one really cared about Ning Xueyan. For the people of Lord Protector's Manor

"You are so…" Ning Zu'an glared at Madam Ling with the two fire-fork shaped veins on his forehead swelling. Madam Ling had sensed the danger already but was unable to interpose Ning Xueyan's spouting statement or to keep up with her thoughts. When Madam Ling finally took a tumble, it was already too late. Subconsciously, she cried with an affectedly effeminate voice, "Marquis!" Then she went limp and fell onto the ground weakly, her head colliding against a column beside her and blood bleeding profusely. Mother Chen went forward to hold her without delay and shouted to the crowd, "Hurry up! Hold Madam back to the yard right now and call a physician. My goodness, she was so seriously hurt. What shall I do?" Seeing this, Ning Zu'an knitted his brows slightly. He hesitated for a while when hearing the words of "back to the yard". After all, they had been couples for years and he felt a little bit sympathetic for her.

Madam Ling coldly asked with an unhappy face, "What's the matter?" "Although marquis has pity for you, he went to Concubine Ma's courtyard and asked people to invite a doctor for Concubine Ma as soon as I left." Mother Chen said indignantly, "This b*tch had promised to you, but eventually she helped Fifth Young Lady deal with you. She's an ungrateful person." Madam Ling gritted her teeth and asked again, "What about that little b*tch?" Mother Chen knew that Madam Ling was asking about Ning Xueyan. She answered while pointing to Bright Frost Garden, "I've already inquired about it. I heard that nothing had happened to Fifth Young Lady and Madam Dowager had rewarded her a lot of things and asked maids to send them to Bright Frost Garden. The servants said that the Fifth Young Lady is preferred by Madam Dowager and no one will dare to slight her and she will certainly get a good marriage." "A good marriage!" Madam Ling snorted col
