The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor Chapter 1042 – Compensate

Chapter 1042 – Compensate

Huan Qing Yan lifted her head and looked into Shang Qiu Meng Qian’s eyes which were holding a complex mix of adoration, pity, and determination.
“I know that Lady Qing Qing might be thinking that I am a lowly person who takes advantage of others when they are down, but I do not mind. This Young Master is here today because I want to analyze the current benefits and downside of the situation. If the Lady finds that this Young Master’s words to be true, you can always choose to accept the marriage proposal later.” Shang Qiu Meng Qian laid out everything clearly.
Huan Qing Yan was feeling a slight loss at what to do next and was interested when she heard Shang Qiu Meng Qian’s proposition. She did not mind listening to his analysis since she has the final say in the end.
She drank her tea and made an inviting gesture.
Shang Qiu Meng Qian had naturally prepared beforehand.
He no longer treated Huan Qing Yan as merely a person he was wooing, but as a co-operator that required convincing, he sharply pointed out: “Lady Qing Qing is currently in the height of status, your name has spread far but lacked a solid foundation, akin to a paper tiger, looking ferocious but easily blown down.
Putting aside the escaped Bai Li Zi Xi first and let’s talk about Madam Ru. Madam Ru herself is not difficult to deal with, but Mu Rong Clan stands behind her. Madam Ru is the first daughter of the main branch generation at that time, possessing outstanding talents and beauty. Although she was arrogant and like to look down on others, her status was no weaker than the new Clan Patriarch that took up the position later. The Mu Rong Clan and the Ji Mo Clan had established a marriage union because they noticed Madam Ru’s promising talents, that was why they were able to overlook the fact that the Mu Rong Clan was in decline.
It was said that when Madam Ru married into the Ji Mo Clan, the Clan Patriarch at that time halved his authority; one-half was given to Madam Ru as dowry to bring into the Ji Mo Clan and become a capital for her to establish her status. That was also why she was able to use the resources from the Mu Rong Clan to achieve her goals; she represented half of the entire Mu Rong Clan.
If you want to deal with Madam Ru, it will mean facing half of the Mu Rong Clan. Are you sure you have the ability?
Let’s talk about Bai Li Zi Xi now; she has been rescued by someone and is currently missing. If you want to look for her, you will need a large information network. This is something Lady Qing Qing lacked as well.”
Huan Qing Yan frowned: “Based on what Young Master has mentioned, does this mean that I can forget about revenge? Since each of my enemies is so difficult to handle! But Young Master, don’t forget, I am now a member of the Bai Li Clan, using some of the Bai Li Clan’s resources should be fine, right?”
Shang Qiu Meng Qian smiled, and look at Huan Qing Yan meaningfully: “Lady Qing Qing may not know this. The Great Clans might place emphasis on bloodline, but the long term benefits of the clan are even more important. The Bai Li Clan received the lady back to the clan and will provide a reasonable amount of compensation. They might even allow and help the lady to search for Bai Li Zi Xi’s whereabouts because this will not affect the foundation of the clan! However, to deal with Madam Ru meant dealing with the Mu Rong Clan too. The Mu Rong Clan might not be as powerful as before, but they are still a Great Clan! If they are backed into a corner, and forced to destroy everything indiscriminately, they might still be able to hurt the foundations of the Bai Li Clan. I believe the Bai Li Clan will be the first to disagree when the time comes!”
Huan Qing Yan went silent, Shang Qiu Meng Qian’s analysis was very thorough, she could not think of a reply.
However, she suddenly recalled something. The Crazy Sage had agreed to help her deal with Madam Ru but he had later found out that Madam Ru had been taken away by the Ji Mo Clan, causing Crazy Sage to return empty-handed.
