"I went to see Consort Zhao and was about to return to the manor." Even though she did not like Feng Yuxuan, she still had to be polite. Mo Xuetong got up gracefully and replied. She lowered her long lashes to hide the coldness in her eyes. Feng Yuxuan had harmed her more than once and was still trying to trick her with his gentle exterior. It was a pity that she was not a stupid woman who could not learn from her mistakes.
"I am about to leave the palace as well. Let's leave together!" Feng Yuxuan said softly.
"King Chu, please go ahead first. His Highness is still waiting for me in the palace. He asked me to wait in the gardens first and will leave with me once he is done." Mo Xuetong's voice was gentle and dulcet. Men and women should not be alone together. There was more than enough gossip in the palace. He was her husband's brother while she was his brother's wife. It was inappropriate for the two of them to travel together. Furthermore, Mo Xuetong did
"Now?" Feng Yuran's beautiful eyes bent with a teasing look. Mo Xuetong's present expression made his heart soft, and he thought how lucky he was that he could marry Tong'er."Yes, it is now," Mo Xuetong said petulantly."Okay, then I'll go into the palace now and speak to Consort Zhao clearly." With a serious look, Feng Yuran held Mo Xuetong's waist to support her to stand up, as if he was about to leave."You're tiresome!" Seeing his serious look which seemed to tell her that he was going to the palace if she did not stop him, Mo Xuetong grabbed his hand in exasperation with a backhand and gave a hard bite. Since Feng Yuran had known that Mo Xuetong said the words deliberately, he still did it to annoy her."Ah, it hurts. My wife, please let me go. And I won't do it again." Feng Yuran screamed pitifully and stretched his slender hand in front of her, showing the wound which could not be hurt anymore. Grievance lingered on his bea
"Oh, cousin Fen is not in good health now." Mo Xuetong gave a faint smile, with coldness in her eyes."Sister-in-law, no. It is... I was sick a few days ago. So..." He Yufen felt greatly disgraced, so she raised her watery eyes and looked at Mo Xuetong aggrieved, just like a tender and decent young lady.Mo Xuetong just looked at her quietly with her head tilting up slightly. Then, she put the book in her hand aside on the table, and the smile on her face gradually dissipated. She took up the teacup on the table and said in a cold voice, “Since Cousin Fen is not in good health, why not rest at home, but still run out. In this weather, it will be terrible if the virus is spread out."The words sounded rather impolite, different from Mo Xuetong's style. He Yufen froze for a moment, then raised her head in surprise, and looked at Mo Xuetong unbelievably, only to spot the displeasure in Mo Xuetong's bright eyes. He Yufen was too embarrassed to say
"Well, elder sister, what's wrong with you? Look at you! Where is your decent as a young lady? Then, don't make senior uncle angry! Maybe he will replace you with a sister from the hometown." He Yuxiu screamed exaggeratedly. Looking at the mess on He Yufen, He Yuxiu turned around her with a look of fuss.He Yufen stopped and refuted immediately with an acid smile. "Even if I am replaced, I will not be replaced by second young sister. You'd better think about how to be the playboy's wife now. As for other things, you don't bother to worry about."If He Yufen's current expression was exposed to the people in the King Xuan's Manor, it would be a great shock to them, as she was not the gentle First Miss He as she usually pretended.Her words stung He Yuxiu. He Yuxiu's countenance changed instantly, and she gnashed the teeth in anger and said, "Don't swagger. I'm afraid that you are not only unable to become the King's consort, but also fail to marr
He approached naturally and collapsed upon her. He reached out to hold her slender waist and breathed in deeply at the crook of her neck. When his nostrils were filled with her clean scent, he asked with satisfaction, "What are you laughing at? Why are you so happy?""It's nothing. I was just wondering if you remember anything of the past after going to the brothel." Mo Xuetong pushed him away, pouting slightly. She was rather charming.Feng Yuran tousled Mo Xuetong's hair. His handsome eyes were clear and charming. When he looked at how she was leaning into him softly, his heart felt soft and sweet. No matter what his Tong'er did, he would like it. He reached out to stroke her nose lazily and asked, "What's the matter, are you jealous?""No way. I would have to submerge myself into a pool of jealousy if I were to be jealous. Have you found out anything about the thing I asked you to investigate?" Mo Xuetong felt a little lazy with the hot weat
"They are just little girls who do not know better. Since you are all family, Consort Xuan, be the bigger person and forget about it." Someone said with a laugh, trying to mediate the situation.Everyone turned to see that there was a woman in her 20s standing beside the He sisters, who were looking very awkward. The woman had a smile on her beautiful face. Her face was round and pleasant looking.She was the wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Works, Lian An. She had entered together with the He sisters, which was why the two managed to get into the Qin Manor.Lian An's wife had always had a good reputation amongst the other wives. She was always gentle and kind and was also the wife of a first-grade official. Mo Xuetong could not treat her like how she treated the He sisters.Mo Xuetong's eyes glittered colorfully and held out a hand to stop Mo Yu from speaking. A gentle smile appeared on her pale face as she greeted the woma
Mo Xuetong continued. She did not look at Auntie Fang again. Instead, she turned around and left. Her light ringing laugher rang behind her and grew softer as she left the courtyard.In her past life, she had been completely destroyed. Her heart had grown bitter with hatred before her death. And now, she had finally gotten what she wanted!Auntie Fang was at the end of her life. Even if Mo Xuetong allowed her to live, she would not be able to live for long."Ahh... Slut, slut... Damnable slut..." Auntie Fang forced herself to get up. She rushed at Mo Xuetong's figure with a crazed and ferocious expression. Her hair was in a mess and she looked like a madwoman.However, before she could finish venting, the curtains lifted again silently. Mdm Yu stood at the entrance expressionlessly. She looked at Auntie Fang sadly..."Eldest Sister, help me. You have to help me. We have to kill the little slut. Kill her. Min'er and Yu'
Qin Yufeng smiled softly. He turned and started walking on the path that took him here. Mo Xuetong followed him. She descended into silence and did not speak. Qin Yufeng smiled and did not hurry her either.The two continued walking casually as if they were friends. The two maids behind followed closely. The wind blew, upturning their sleeves, but no one noticed. Things seemed to be in harmony between the two of them. It was a strange harmony that came from a gentle smile and wariness.They were walking on the main path of the back courtyard. A smaller path appeared in front of them suddenly. A woman rushed out at them and toppled on Qin Yufeng. Qin Yufeng moved swiftly and pulled Mo Xuetong back so that Mo Xuetong could avoid the woman who rushed at them.Then, another woman followed. The woman stood still when she saw that there were others present. Her expression, which had been sharp and fierce, turned gentle. She smiled pleasantly and imme
"Second Sister, shall we follow?" He Yufen watched the horse carriage draw away. She wrung her handkerchief as she spoke to He Yuxiu softly. When she thought of King Xuan, Feng Yuran's handsome appearance and the way he turned to look back when he got onto the carriage, He Yufen's heart jumped wildly. Her face grew hot. She felt that Feng Yuran had turned to look at her."Elder Sister, do you really think King Xuan was looking at you? Dream on, he won't like you." Now that there was no one else around them, He Yuxiu did not have to act as if they were close. She gave He Yufen the side eye and berated her jealously. Feng Yuran was obviously looking at her, not He Yufen.When she thought of how her uncle and father decided to marry her to King Xuan, He Yuxiu could not control the jealousy she felt!The riches and luxuries that were about to land in her hands were slipping away. How could He Yuxiu calm down?"Second Sister, you don't
