Translating Sloth

 Ji Yu Qing looked like she was going to spit out blood, her entire plan had been ruined by this beggar woman who appeared from nowhere, how could Ji Ling Xue give her clothes to someone, and had given them to a lowly person, was she insulting her intelligence? That's right, she thought that was the fool Ji Ling Xue, being duped by a fool, this feeling was not good. "What is actually going on?" Xiao Yi Chen's face sank, he turned to look at the late arrival Ji Ling Xue, he could not admit Ji Ling Xue was dressed appropriately and in good taste today, even though the materials were not gorgeous they couldn't conceal her fresh and pure temperament, if only her eyes were not so slacken and without sense. Ji Ling Xue put on an innocent expression: "Oh, yesterday Zi Su came to deliver clothes, she told me young sister didn't want it, I don't like the colour, so I gave it to a beggar on the streets, see, don't you think she looks stylish wearing somethi...

 Having heard what was said Xiao Yi Chen raised a finger pointing at his face, he began to doubt the man's medical experience in front of him, he really didn't know where he got the title of miracle doctor, could he not see the red rashes on his face, if it wasn't from poison what else? Understanding Xiao Yi Chen's meaning, Bai Mo laughed continuing to speak, "These ingredients do not have any toxicity, the embroidery on this pouch is very peculiar..." Bai Mo said as he used a slender fingernail to pick at the threads of the embroidery, the next moment a little fine powder covered his silver white fingernail, Bai Mo tasted it in his mouth, continuing to say, "It's snake grass..." Xiao Yi Chen frowned, "Snake grass, my face has been poisoned by snake grass?" Could Ji Yu Qing really have guessed it right, Ji Ling Xue was seeking retribution?  Bai Mo said: "The poison was very well concealed, if it wasn't for my discerning eyes it...

 Xiao Yi Chen said: "Ji Ling Xue, this prince has had enough of you!" As he spoke he grabbed her arm pushing her onto the ground, turning around he entered the gates, coming across Ji Yu Qing and Zi Su who were about to leave, seeing Xiao Yi Chen steaming with anger, Ji Yu Qing cautiously stepped forward, noticing the figure lying outside the gate, her lips raised into a victorious arc, a fool was a fool, how could she be her opponent. Ji Yu Qing tugged on Xiao Yi Chen's arm: "Prince, who has angered you so early in the morning, did older sister do something wrong, I'll apologise for her, I hope prince is a magnanimous person, we're one family no need to be unhappy." Ji Yu Qing said as she looked out of the corner of her eyes at the shivering red figure outside the gates, that's right, she had picked that outfit with the utmost care, so what if it looked goo d on her, a fool was a fool, she still couldn't obtain the prince's favour, wait for ...

 Until Ji Ling Xue's figure disappeared, everyone inside Linglang only then came to their senses, the shopkeeper hurriedly instructed the assistants to wrap up everything Ji Ling Xue had taken a liking to, and deliver them as soon as possible to prince Chen's residence, this was a massive transaction, of course it had to be carried out perfectly. The assistants scratched their heads with a pained expression, trying hard to recall what Ji Ling Xue had touched, you really couldn't judge someone by their appearance, the woman dressed plainly was actually the princess of prince Chen, they were going to remember her from now, to prevent offending her next time again. A woman said: "That was actually prince Chen's princess, the imperial concubine that married in yesterday, her temperament is bad, in any case as a bride the clothes she wore were too plain, could the Ji family not have given her any dowry?" B woman said, "The Ji family has declined these last few...

 As for why she should go to the gates of prince Chen's residence, of course it's for Ji Yu Qing to see for herself her decision to choose this outfit was not bad, it's also very beautiful on a beggar. Ji Ling Xue didn't expect her actions, would lead to an unexpected scene the next day in front of the residence gates. Mo Xiang nodded, "Yes." Without asking more, she did whatever Ji Ling Xue told her to do, her mistress giving a beggar what that woman gave her, she had no regret at all. When Mo Xiang presented the bright dress to the beggar girl, the girl opened her mouth wide in exaggeration staring at Mo Xiang, happiness and distrust in her eyes, she was really hungry right now, even though she was very uncomfortable as she was dirty and smelled, compare to this, she would rather prefer to have a full stomach. Mo Xiang said: "This is for you, tomorrow morning go to prince Chen's residence...there will be a reward!" The beggar finally picked her...

 Ji Yu Qing waved her hand and ordered, "Zi Su, go pick a good outfit and take it to my foolish sister, tell her tomorrow she has to go back with me, tell her mother and father miss her, they told her to go back with me, make sure she dresses properly, don't lose prince Chen's face." Zi Su nodded replying, "This servant will do as you bid, prince sent over a number of new clothes today, this servant will send over princess's old clothes." Having spoken she turned around and busied herself. On the other side, JI Ling Xue who had gotten herself ready to go out had no idea she was being schemed against, she and Mo Xiang stood in an empty corner of the courtyard, there was a dog hole there, Mo Xiang set about tidying it a little, she placed a door the same colour as the wall, creating an invisible door. Mo Xiang had just opened the small door, when the courtyard door was being knocked on, the noisy voice of Zi Su came through, "Princess, are you here? O...

 Ji Ling Xue clapped her hands, patting away the lime plaster from her hands, "Very good, let's go, we should also leave the residence." She had guessed Ji Yu Qing would be the first to suspect her, that carefulness of  Xiao Yi Chen would definitely come check on her, thus she beat him at his own game by pretending to be the foolish princess in his mind. It was very convenient for Ji Ling Xue to leave from this side courtyard, she could reach the streets by climbing the wall, since she was known as the foolish princess of prince Chen's mansion by everyone, the guards neglect to patrol her courtyard on purpose, therefore she could leave the residence undetected. Mo Xiang closed the doors properly, hesitating a little, she opened her mouth to remind her: "Mistress, do we actually need to go to such a place? It's not appropriate for someone of your status..." Ji Ling Xue smiled, "There's no appropriate or inappropriate, here apart from you who trea...

   "What, what are you saying about prince?" Ji Yu Qing on hearing Zi Su's report widened her pair of eyes, the next moment she got up from the bed, she rushed over to Xiao Yi Chen's main courtyard with a jacket covering her shoulders. Zi Su hurriedly followed behind Ji Yu Qing assuring her to not worry too much, prince had only broke out in a rash. Ji Yu Qing still carried on walking, in her mind was the embroidered pouch that Mo Xiang had brought over. Xiao Yi Chen still carried the embroidered pouch on him, then something bad happened, it can't be a coincident right? Xiao Yi Chen sat on the stool, raising his hand wanting to scratch his face, thinking about it he stopped himself, the doctor said he mustn't scratch, what would happen if he was scarred? Even though he was a man who didn't pay attention to his appearance, he had a handsome face and didn't want to face others however with an ugly appearance. Li Yu Qing blew in from outside like the wind...

 A trace of a sneer appeared on Ji Ling Xue's lips as she picked up the small bamboo tube, imagining Xiao Yi Chen searching everywhere for this to prevent a leak of military secret, she felt very entertained. Who should she give this military report to? Ji Ling Xue's eyes moved around, she didn't want that man to live too well, this was what he owed her. Since he was so heartless, he needs to be prepared for her revenge! A craftiness flashed through Ji Ling Xue's eyes, putting the little bamboo tube away properly, she set the divorce paper alight and it became ash instantly. Mo Xiang pushed the door open and entered, she who had completed her mission was very pleased: "Princess, this servant did not disgrace you, I've done what you've asked!" JI Ling Xue turned her head, seeing Mo Xiang come in with a bright smile full of energy, the next moment, her chattiness was turned on, without waiting for Ji Ling Xue to ask, she told her everything she had heard...

 Ji Yu Qing obediently shut her mouth and kept quiet, the faint throbbing pain on her forehead made her eyes red, that bullied little woman appearance fell into Xiao Yi Chen's eyes, his heart softened immediately, but he felt there was no reason to take back what he had said. He only felt Ji Ling Xue had no intention to sincerely apologise to Ji Yu Qing, the apology was merely a pretence, maybe this pouch was filled with intestine water, it's fine if Ji Yu Qing doesn't understand him, he also didn't feel like explaining too much. Xiao Yi Chen raised his eyebrows, recalling the military report given to him yesterday by the military counsellor had disappeared without a trace before he had taken a look, his mood was suddenly not good, patting Ji Yu Qing's shoulder as consolation, he said: "Qing Qing, this prince still has things to take care of, you should rest well in your room, don't go provoke that fool Ji Ling Xue, you know, she's the niece of empress ...

 Early next morning, Mo Xiang went and paid her respects to Ji Yu Qing with a pair of red eyes, kneeling outside the doors of the courtyard, using a hundred percent of her voice she yelled: "Imperial concubine are you here? This servant is here to apologise on behalf of my princess." Even though there was half a courtyard between them, Ji Yu Qing who was lying in bed could hear her clearly, she rubbed her lightly throbbing forehead, cursing Ji Ling Xue in her mind a thousand times, if it wasn't because of her, she wouldn't have used such a callous method of injuring herself. Now she had done this to herself, but she still couldn't get Xiao Yi Chen to stay in her courtyard, yesterday Xiao Yi Chen had sent her back to her courtyard, asked for a few doctors to take a look at her injury. She then hugged Xiao Yi Chen's waist seeking comfort, Xiao Yi Chen looked around in his sleeves, suddenly his expression changed greatly, turning he left, leaving her to continue ...

 An hour later, Ji Ling Xue had waited for Mo Xiang's return, on her return she also brought back two large basket of daily essentials, food, rice and grains, it seems like using the empress dowager to put a bit of pressure on Xiao Yi Chen, he wouldn't mistreat her. Mo Xiang began to prattle on about the anger she felt from Ji Yu Qing as soon as she got back. Mo Xiang felt aggrieved saying: "Princess, the imperial concubine is really too despicable, it's enough that she's dominated the prince, when this servant said princess should get some preferential treatment, she shamelessly said she wanted to manage the housekeeper, she was only hurt a little, acting pitifully, surprisingly the prince agreed to her, now all the servants in the residence are treating her like the matriarch of the Chen residence." Mo Xiang tilted her head, looking at Ji Ling Xue checking the things inside the large wicker baskets, as for her position as princess being stolen away by her wh...

 Recalling Ji Ling Xue disturbing the privacy of the bridal room last night, her being alone in the room last night, everything was because of Ji Ling Xue, the hate in Ji Yu Qing's eyes increased sharply. Hearing Xiao Yi Chen's cold and reproaching question, Ji Ling Xue expressionlessly turned around, looking at the bloodstain on Ji Yu Qing's forehead, the blood had already dried up by now, with her pale gorgeous face she looked very pitiful. Ji Ling Xue's eyes again returned to a puzzled state, foolishly, she ran a little to stand in front of Ji Yu Qing, using strength to press the handkerchief in her hand onto Ji Yu Qing's forehead, "Staunch it, staunch it, then it won't bleed!" Ji Yu Qing sucked in a breath, her complexion paled further, her forehead being pressed on so hard by Ji Ling Xue, didn't feel well at all, beside her Xiao Yi Chen was still there, she couldn't explode in anger. Ji Yu Qing waved Ji Ling Xue aside wanting to cry but co...

 Ji Ling Xue and Ji Yu Qing had grown up at odds with each other, Ji Yu Qing became the first to write a poem, while everyone praised her every word, Ji Ling Xue didn't know a lot of words, but had a culinary talent that everyone in the residence praised, even the arrogant since childhood Xiao Yi Chen frequently visited the Ji residence, only to eat the culinary delicacies made by Ji Ling Xue. For this reason the empress dowager really took a fancy to Xiao Yi Chen and Ji Ling Xue, arranging a betrothal for the children. Ji Yu Qing who had been jealous of Ji Ling Xue since young cried loudly and caused a scene, her mother felt distressed for her daughter, as such she hated Ji Ling Xue as well, she bribed the wet nurse taking care of Ji Ling Xue to put a slow acting poison into Ji Ling Xue's food every day, very soon, the originally lively and joyful Ji Ling Xue gradually became a fool, even Xiao Yi Chen didn't visit her from close or afar, he married her, only because of the...

Xiao Yi Chen put away the small bamboo tube in his hand, turning around to look at the housekeeper, frowning slightly, he didn't know, his heart was slightly unsteady. The housekeeper said: "The rightful princess." Chi Feng immediately laughed, like he had heard a joke, "The rightful princess...you're talking about that foolish Ji Ling Xue, haha, doesn't she always stay in the side courtyard, why did she leave her mountain today?" The housekeeper's forehead was filled with black lines, he didn't know what he ought to say, the princess was a fool, but she was the prince's official wife. Xiao Yi Chen's eyes narrowed, with a fling of his sleeves to his back, he walked forward in large strides, "Let's go, take a look." He wanted to see what the foolish woman wanted. Reception pavilion, Ji Ling Xue had already changed into a refreshing light blue dress, long hair bound into a fashionable style, only two jasper hairpins were in he...

 Ji Ling Xue nodded, in front of Mo Xiang she didn't need to act foolish, helping Mo Xiang up, she held her hand smiling, "Thank you Mo Xiang, if it wasn't for you, I don't know what would have happened to me." Mo Xiang shook her head, "Princess had saved this servant's life, this servant has engraved that in her heart, this servant had one swore, to pledge her life and loyalty to princess." Ji Ling Xue smiled, she really was a great maid!  When she was a child she was poisoned and turned into a fool, she had gotten married to Xiao Yi Chen out of politics, the day before Ji Yu Qing married Xiao Yi Chen, she had gone to find Ji Ling Xue to show off, and took out a bottle of poison and poured it into Ji Ling Xue's mouth... The poison however did not take Ji Ling Xue's life, because when the female lead left the Ji residence to marry the male lead, her personal maid Mo Xiang had constantly been looking for a way to cure the poison in Ji Ling Xue...

 The maid in green on seeing Ji Ling Xue was safe and sound let out a long breath, "Princess, this servant has finally found you!" Xiao Yi Chen had already stood up, with a fling of his sleeve the trouser leg he had helped Ji Ling Xue roll up just now fell back down, with a grave and stern face he stood to the side, "Mo Xiang, how do you look after your princess?" His tone held a dutiful anger, scaring Mo Xiang so much her legs weakened, that's when she noticed the man to the side, the prince Chen she had not seen more than a few times. Mo Xiang was the maid which accompanied Ji Ling Xue as dowry, she had always been with Ji Ling Xue, the odds of seeing this master was rather pitiful, recalling although Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen's wedding had been grand, but after Ji Ling Xue had been married into the prince's residence, Xiao Yi Chen had been too lazy to even lift the bridal veil before he left, since that day they had been thrown to the side courtyar...
