Who would be in the mood to embroider wedding robes? He Yuxiu threw the threads and wedding robes onto the ground and said angrily, "Pick, pick, pick. What do you want me to pick? He's a terrible person, what's there to pick!"
"Oh, Second Sister, what's the matter? Who doesn't want to pick? Did the maids cause trouble and make you angry? I will tell Father and have him punish them." A mirthful voice could be heard from the door. He Yufen, who was dressed in a flower-patterned dress entered with a bright smile.
He Yuxiu's face paled with anger when she saw He Yufen entering.
He Yufen seemed not to notice He Yuxiu's hateful gaze. She entered with a smile and picked up the wedding robe from the floor. Then, she put it against the light from the entrance and praised, "Second Sister, you've got great taste. The style that you chose is much better than mine. No wonder you are getting married first. I, as your elder sister, really can't compare to
"My Lady, are you really going to Puguang Temple?" Mo Yu asked with concern having realized that something was amiss. "I am, of course I am. How will I find out who is plotting against me if I don't go? What is King Yan planning? Is he trying to deal with His Highness through me?" Mo Xuetong picked up the teacup by her hand. Her voice was soft and she sounded as if she was talking to herself. The smile on her lips grew cold. There was something she was very sure of. No matter who the man was, he definitely had something to do with King Yan. King Yan's Manor was locked up and there were only that many people who can enter King Yan's Manor. Mo Xueqiong was locked up inside of it and she could not see anyone she wanted. The only people she could see were those King Yan trusted. As such, Mo Xuetong already had a vague idea of who the man was. He was so stubborn he was getting irritating. She really did not understand what she did t
Even Feng Yulei, who was standing by the large horse carriage smiled. He watched Mo Xueqiong with some interest. When he realized that it was Mo Xueqiong, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes. He pretended not to see the pleading look in her eyes and helped You Yue'e onto the luxurious horse carriage in front before following her in. He did not take a second look at Mo Xueqiong. This was the man Mo Xueqiong had loved. She had done everything to hurt Mo Xuetong and betrayed her father for this man. But in the end, the man hated her and felt disgusted by her. Mo Xueqiong's blood ran cold. If Mo Jiao had not reached out for her, she would not have been able to continue standing. She could hear the peals of mocking laughter around her and she turned around. None of the faces around her were kind. They were filled with disdain, scorn, and disgust. Their emotions almost destroyed her mental state. She reached out with shaking hands and seemed as if she wanted
Based on the convention in the harem, the childless consorts would go to the Ganye Palace after the Emperor's death to live a life of spiritual practice and submit to the Buddhist discipline. Life for them was totally different from the flamboyant life before, but equivalent to a nun's. If the consort had a son, she could live with her son in the King's manor; if she had a daughter, she could still stay in the palace and be entitled as a "Consort Dowager".And what the Empress meant was that Imperial Noble Consort Wen was allowed to come out of the palace and live with her daughter. Such preferential treatment had never been granted before. So the Empress believed that it appealed to Imperial Noble Consort Wen most. Because the Sixth Princess was Imperial Noble Consort Wen's only daughter. If she could live with her daughter to spend the rest of her life, it would be more appealing to Imperial Noble Consort Wen that she had to live alone in the palace.Alth
Mo Xuetong's eyes fell on the person in front of her. Judging from his clothes, he did not look like those doing the hard work. His hands were thin but clean with his fingernails trimmed smoothly. And his long blue robe, no matter from the clothing material or the embroidered lines and buttons on the neckline, were very exquisite, unlike an ordinary one.Obviously, the man was either from a wealthy or a noble family. But how could such a person appear on the road alone and push on the trip the Puguang Temple with his sick body? A hint of suspicion flashed in Mo Xuetong's eyes.Mo Xuetong took two steps back and asked with a calm smile, "Sir, where are your family members?""In the early morning, I didn't wait for the servants and set off ahead. But unexpectedly, when I walked here, it was too hot for me to hold on, and shocked the lady. But for you, as I suffered a relapse, I would have died. Thank you for saving my life." The young man put dow
Mo Ye reached out to stop her.Mo Xuetong looked the woman up and down again, gently pushed Mo Lan's hands away, stepped forward and asked softly, "Who are you? Why did you find me? Lady, I don't know you, so what can I help you? Or do you get separated from your maidservants and nannies? Should we help you find them?"The woman raised her eyes, looked at Mo Xuetong with tears in her eyes, and said, "Your Highness, I am a concubine of the King Chu's Manor."Of King Chu's Manor? Mo Xuetong was surprised and frowned slightly. King Chu, Feng Yuxuan, was so cruel and merciless that he had framed Mo Xuetong more than once. In the last life, Mo Xuetong's tragic fate was mostly due to Feng Yuxuan who incited Qin Yufeng to support Mo Xuemin and Sima Lingyun to gang up against Mo Xuetong, making her fall into a miserable end.In this life, Feng Yuxuan also snared Mo Xuetong many times. Especially that time, Mo Xuetong was sent to King Yan's
"Didn't anyone visit her?" She could not help but ask again, "Not even a single maid or nanny?""I saw very clearly that no one visited her. King Yan did not send anyone to ask if she wanted to go with everyone to pay respect to Buddha. I heard a maid say that if Marquess Mingguo didn't protect her on the way there, she wouldn't even be able to get into the temple!"What did that mean? Was there something going on between Mo Xueqiong and You Yuecheng?A sudden thought flashed through Mo Xuetong's mind. You Yuecheng had always hated her for some reason, but that had always confused Mo Xuetong.You Yuecheng's younger sister, You Yue'e married Feng Yulei. He and Feng Yulei were definitely on the same side. You Yuecheng was definitely allowed to enter and exit Feng Yulei's manor. Coupled with You Yuecheng's hatred toward her, Mo Xueqiong's odd change, their trip to the temple, as well as some other things...Mo Xuetong fel
Mo Xuetong suddenly looked up and blinked with her large clear eyes. The coldness in her eyes left and her eyes shone brilliantly. She suddenly felt like laughing at that moment.You Yuecheng had said that he was going to marry her. However, he had no choice but to marry Ling Mingyan. The whole thing seemed to have nothing to do with her. Yet, why did he make it sound as if she had betrayed him?You Yuecheng had never asked if she was willing in the first place!This was the most ludicrous thing ever for him to hold her accountable at this moment!"Your Excellency, what is it that you wish to say?" Mo Xuetong asked softly. She thought that he was behaving oddly and a hint of ridicule appeared in her clear eyes.“Do you really not wish to marry me?" You Yuecheng asked, almost gritting his teeth. He glared at Mo Xuetong viciously as if he would tear her into bits if she said no.A surprised smile appeared on
"My Lady..." Mo Ye said.Mo Xuetong waved her hand and stopped Mo Ye from saying anything. She did not walk further into the temple but turned around to leave through the door instead. She walked out of the temple slowly and the maids who were waiting outside hurried after her.Mo Ye saw that Mo Xuetong's brows were tightly locked and knew that she was thinking about something. She took a few steps backward and got the others to take a few steps backward as well lest they disturbed Mo Xuetong's thought process.Mo Xuetong was a hundred percent sure that You Yuecheng had evidence in his hands. However, she was not sure how much he knew. It was obvious that he wanted something from her but did not expect her to be so stubborn. However, what evidence did he have that involved the Fu General Manor?How was he so certain that Consort Jin did not die then? He had not yet been boron then. What did he know and was it the Fu General who lea
