Mo Bilian frowned, "Fuchun was a gift from my third sister. How can you take back something that has been given away?"
Fu Liu pressed on, "Second Miss, you speak so confidently, are you shameless, or are you trying to steal the city lord's maid?"
"I……"
Before she could finish speaking, Fu Liu put her hands on her hips and shouted in a clear voice, "I wasn't always called Fu Liu. I was just a kitchen maid who tended the fire. The city lord had no one else to use..."
When she starts talking, Fu Liu's mouth is like it's been blessed; she rattles off a whole bunch of words in no time.
It was said that Mo Yunzhao had no maids to serve him, so he could only recommend her, a kitchen maid.
The strongest and most loyal maid, Fu Chun, became Mo Bilian's personal maid.
She didn't directly name Mo Bilian, but her words implied that Mo Yunzhao had stolen his maid!
"My Lord City Lord is so pitiful. To this day, I am just a useless fire-tending girl who cannot cultivate spiritual power. I can only cook for the Lord City Lord. If there is any danger, I can only use the spatula to shield him."
Mo Bilian: "..."
Fu Chun and his disciples, who had been whipped by the big-tailed fish, were speechless.
How could she possibly call herself a good-for-nothing?
They were all disciples of the Holy Extreme Sect, and when they went out, they were always treated with great respect and deference.
But they were beaten down by her with the big-tailed fish.
How could she say those things?
That's shameless.
Mo Bilian took a deep breath. "Fuchun was sent to me by my third sister. At that time, she followed my orders obediently. Now, I know that if she goes back, she will be waiting to die, so I send her back."
Mo Yunzhao looked up, his eyes, as clear as jewels, at her.
Mo Bilian met her gaze. "Therefore, I cannot return Fuchun to Third Sister. I will protect my people. If Third Sister has any issues, she can come at me."
After weighing the pros and cons, she decided it was best for Fuchun to stay.
Mo Yunzhao stared at Mo Bilian, then smiled and said, "If Second Cousin wants it, then keep it. However, this city lord is determined to eliminate the traitorous slaves."
Mo Bilian nodded: "I will protect Fuchun."
"Fu Liu, I'm leaving her in your care. Take your time, there's no rush," Mo Yunzhao said.
Fu Liu readily agreed, then stared at Fu Chun, pondering how to deal with the situation later.
Fu Chun suddenly saw a fish-shaped shadow in front of her, and she felt a little dizzy.
Will she get fish sickness in the future?
Seeing that her slander was in vain, Mo Bici said directly, "Today is the Hundred Flowers Festival. Every year, Moyang City selects a Hundred Flowers Fairy. Mo Yunzhao, I've signed you up."
Mo Yunzhao frowned.
Mo Yunlan glanced at Mo Bilian, who was wearing a veil, and said, "With her ugly appearance, she still wants to compare with A Zhao?"
Mo Bici laughed mockingly.
“But my second sister has been selected as the Flower Fairy every year since she came of age, while Mo Yunzhao, even though she is the most beautiful woman in Xuan Tang Kingdom, has never been selected as the Flower Fairy. She has only an empty title.”
Mo Yunlan was unhappy. "That's because A Zhao didn't sign up. She wouldn't bother participating."
Mo Bici: "So I've signed her and my second sister up now. Let's see who gets elected as the Flower Fairy and comes out on top today."
Ling Yongnian, seeing this as a good opportunity, said, "Whoever is chosen as the Flower Fairy today, I will bestow upon her a thousand-year-old Crimson Flame Flower."
The Crimson Flame Flower is the king of flowers, and it is extremely rare to find one that grows to a thousand years old.
This flower can be used to refine the elixir of immortality.
Although it's just a legend, it's truly priceless.
“Alright.” Mo Bici agreed, then looked up at Ling Jingyu on the second floor. “The Third Prince has already expressed his opinion, why isn’t His Highness the Crown Prince expressing his opinion?”
Ling Jingyu: "I will give this flower to A Zhao alone; and my heart to A Zhao alone."
Mo Yunzhao lowered his eyes.
Mo Bici: "If Your Highness does not wish to give flowers, then Your Highness can offer a reward: accompany the Hundred Flower Fairy on a night stroll around Tongxin Lake, or grant her a request."
