Mo Flower Vol 1 Epilogue

Mo Shang Hua Kai – Epilogue



Li Cong Qing has returned!

This news had been undulating in the court, one after another they whispered in secret.

The numerous Officials, who earlier saw the person from the crack between the door leaves, could clearly see Li Cong Qing lying flat. Who could have known that the sleepy a.s.sistant Minister unexpectedly slept on the pillow beside the Emperor.

No matter from which angle, horizontally or vertically, the a.s.sistant Minister of Ministry of Rites was not of the appearance of the victim of a crime, the best heroin who could charm the Monarch. The Emperor actually would just like this bestow favor upon him, everybody thought it was too fantastic, shout out loudly TOO UNFATHOMABLE!

The Imperial Court because of this matter was divided into three fractions. One fraction approved of it. One fraction opposed to it. Another one fraction had no opinion, as long as the Emperor happy, that will do.

What caused people to be in utmost astonishment was, the previously objected to Li Cong Qing the most, Xu Minister, stood on the approving fraction. Simply made the jaws of mult.i.tudes of people fall to the ground.

The person was the person, the matter was the matter. Li Cong Qing could be said as having a little enterprising spirit. Xu Minister thus said, from now on, if he was in the same fault, could be counted as to set good example from clearly separating the public and private affairs.

All beings possess love, all wish it could be granted, all deserve happiness, deserve to be congratulated. Shan Zai Shan Zai1. The Great Teacher of the Nation thus said while smiling, a line of Buddha’s teaching, endless for eternally.

The Emperor still industriously conducted morning court as before every day. Li Cong Qing still fell asleep during morning court as before every day. Ten years like a day.

What was different from the past was, everybody from a distant could catch a glimpse of the couple hand in hand leisurely strolling in the Imperial Garden; on the autumn hunting season, when the Emperor bestowed upon Li Cong Qing the most tender and delicate piece of meat, everybody no longer became envious to the point of red eyes. If Li Cong Qing got drunk during the Palace’s banquets, leaned on the Emperor, n.o.body would be surprised and deemed it as a disrespectful behavior towards one’s superior, as if that kind of thing was of the Heaven’s law and Earth’s principle2.

Li Cong Qing for all of his life was posted as a.s.sistant Minister of Ministry of Rites, lived to the age of sixty nine. Pa.s.sed away in peace due to advanced age.

The following year, Song Yu who had become the retired Emperor followed forth. Died a natural death at the age of seventy one.

The Retired Emperor on his deathbed had specially said in advance, to take the remaining of Li Cong Qing into his coffin to be buried together. This story became a story that was told for generations in Dashao.

Some people said, the Peony Fairy and the Son of Heaven had written together the heavenly book, in extreme happiness continued their predestined love forever and ever even in their afterlife.

Without extremely disturbing greed, hate and angry sentiment, needless to hold dear the violent social upheavals, more over need not to regret the mortal life-and-death. The feeling which quietly flowed like a tiny stream in this too peaceful and flourishing age, was like a beautiful flower burst forth into a full blossom. Brightened up for all of their life.


End of Epilogue.  

END OF MSHK


Notes:
1)      Shan Zai is the words a monk often said. Literally means: excellent.

2)      Heaven’s law and Earth’s principle (id) means: the right and proper matter of course.



Phewww…. Finally…. This is done.. LOL… XD

I started this project long long time ago, (I feel like a turtle… LOL.. ) and despite only 9 chapters plus a short epilogue, I actually took this long time to complete (posting) the whole translation thanks to my three months hiatus. Ehehhehehe… ---Next time, please pay attention if I say I will leave because I talked about serious matter jokingly and talked about joking matter seriously. XD

So, thank you for boarding with me in this long journey. 

See you soon in the next translation project. (next week tho… LOL.. )

Meanwhile, I will post my HHYL short fanfics (I have quite a lot) to fill the gap before Fanfic3. 
Then again…. See you whether in the fanfic or in the translation… LOL… XD 


Ps : please don’t love me too much. MUahahahhahahahhaha….
And : for every late release, every mistakes, every errors, every misconducts, every grammar’s fault :  please, I repeat, PLEASE BLAME Chantel!!!.   XD

aahhhhh.... one more thing, do you guys find that my translation is rather hard to be understood? or too boring for i obviously used the same words over and again. LOL... XD

please tell me since this is for my future advancement and progression in learning both Mandarin and English.
I usually don't care much about comments or such, but since galaxyan has mentioned about this, (that i only received praising and positive comments) maybe it is time for me to hear your real feeling?? let's talk about this. LOL.

No worry, I won't hold any hard-feeling (but surely will curse in secret... LOL.. XD ) hence, your real opinion rather than a mere 'thank you' is needed to make me a better translator. XD
