Chapter 1523: 1522 Ridiculous Decision
Monica was taken aback and then smiled, “Although I’ve married His Royal Highness, I don’t have royal blood flowing through my veins. My words are useless, even if I wanted to give that land to your family, it wouldn’t end up with you.”
“I’ve heard long ago from His Royal Highness that the land belongs to Princess Samiyi, His Majesty the King plans to build a summer palace there for the princess to spend her old age. Do you think your family has the capability to get that land?”
Alisa said, “Your Highness the Consort, everyone knows that Prince Busodi is very fond of you. If you just speak up, he would certainly help you with this favor. Moreover, what is Princess Samiyi compared to you, you are…,” she lowered her voice, “the one who is going to be queen!”
Monica was both surprised and pleased, but she still pretended to be very calm, “Don’t talk nonsense, this isn’t your home.”
Alisa said, “In our hearts, you are the most honorable woman in the whole world!”
Monica seemed to be fantasizing about such a future, “Hmm, you’re absolutely right. However, I still can’t agree to help you because there are other residents there. What about the people living there if you take the land? The reason the King hasn’t immediately started building the new palace is probably because there are people still living there; he must be waiting for them to move out.”
But Alisa countered, “Isn’t it easy to make those people move out? Just cause a little trouble there, like poisoning their water supply, and they’ll move out immediately.”
Monica said, “Alisa, ever since you got married, I’ve found you to be more and more vicious.”
Alisa scoffed, “I’ve been used to living a hard life, and now that I’ve finally met a rich man, I must hold on tight to him.”
She had married her current husband as his second wife, his previous wife having died, thus making her the successor.
Moreover, Monica had introduced her to her husband. After marrying Prince Busodi, Monica had taken care of all her good sisters. It was uncertain whether she truly wished to look after her friends or to flaunt her current status.
“Keep your voices down, this isn’t home,” the woman in the pink garment advised.
Monica looked around and saw no one on the second floor, so she boldly proclaimed, “It’s fine, there’s no one here. We sisters can chat to our hearts’ content. Even if there is someone, it doesn’t matter. Who would dare to report me, the consort?”
These friends of Monica’s, not only foolish and vicious, but also shortsighted, failed to notice Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu sitting right there, not having seen them or heard their presence.
Tan Rou made a gesture to Zhuang Liu, signaling him to stop flipping through the book.
Zhuang Liu gently closed the book and continued listening to the conversation of the few people.
“Don’t you cause any deaths,” Monica still didn’t want to stir up serious trouble.
Alisa reassured, “Don’t worry, I will only put a little poison in their drinking water.”
Monica nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll talk to His Royal Highness as soon as I get back. I believe you’ll get that land very soon.”
Tan Rou was furious. These despicable people were planning to poison innocent individuals for a piece of land. No, she couldn’t let them succeed; she needed to inform Samiyi about this promptly.
Monica and her good sisters talked for a while longer, discussing various dark schemes, and they were brazen about it, not afraid to act in a public place.
Probably because there was no one else around, they genuinely had no fear of others overhearing their conversation.
After the conversation, Monica’s friends left happily, clearly having achieved their objective for the day. Yet Monica did not leave; she sat there elegantly drinking coffee and touched up her makeup.
Tan Rou observed Monica’s actions, waiting for her to leave. Just when she thought Monica would go after fixing her makeup, Monica took out her mirror again.
Monica looked at herself in the mirror while glancing at her watch, as if waiting for someone.
Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou exchanged glances, Shall we go?
