Mo Yarui finally hurried over and secretly wiped away the sweat on her forehead. She walked to Mo Xuetong and bowed with a smile. "Greetings, Consort Xuan!"
"Second Consort Mo? Please take a seat. Somebody, serve tea!" Mo Xuetong recognized that the person in front of her was Assistant Minister Mo's daughter. She suddenly understood that the so-called Ya'er was Mo Yarui. She avoided Feng Yuxuan's gaze and focused on Mo Yarui with a polite smile.
"Many thanks, Consort Xuan." Mo Yarui leaned over and sat on a stone bench by the side. It was such a hot day and she had been chasing after Feng Yuxuan. It was really hot on the way here. She took the tea from Mo Lan and took a sip. Then she felt a sweet scent and the summer heat diminished immediately.
"Your Highness, please have some tea." Mo Lan put a cup of tea beside Feng Yuxuan's hand. Feng Yuxuan nodded, but he intentionally fiddled with the teacup he had been holding. The corners of his lips cu
When Feng Yuxuan came to the Jinwei Pavilion with Mo Yarui, Feng Yuran was lying on an rattan chair, with his eyes closed, under the tree in front of the pavilion. Two little eunuchs were standing behind him, fanning him."Eighth brother, are you feeling alright?" That was what Feng Yuxuan saw when he entered. A smile appeared on his face and he looked around curiously. There were only a few young eunuchs who were standing by his side. He could not help but tease, "Why is there no one singing songs? You've changed since you married a wife."The last time he and Fifth Princess came here, there was a singing and dancing show. Staying here, one could see many beauties, and all of them were extraordinarily charming and attractive. Now there was only Feng Yuran. Compared to the previous scene, the change was really amazing."Hey, Elder Brother, you'd better stop talking about it. It's a headache when I think about it. It's hard for me to have a baby
Mo Yarui suddenly fainted. Even though she woke up and claimed that it was not a big deal, she had just suffered from heatstroke due to physical weakness, and she just needed to be more careful. But Feng Yuxuan decided not to stay any longer and took his leave to Feng Yuran. When leaving, he repeatedly told Feng Yuran not to use the excuse of feeling unwell tomorrow. Otherwise, the Emperor would really get angry.Feng Yuran sent Feng Yuxuan off at the door while promising that he would attend the banquet properly tomorrow and would definitely not be lazy.Mo Xuetong had already changed into a light green skirt by the time Feng Yuran returned. She walked out of the room and saw Feng Yuran enter, she took the handkerchief in her maidservant's hands and pulled his clothes, gesturing him to lower his head, and wiped his sweat carefully with the handkerchief.After all, it was in summer. There was still a long distance to make a return from here the
In the Consort Zhao's Mingyue Palace, there was no one else but Consort Zhao. It was too spacious and empty. Shadow twisted in the candlelight. Then, the light leaped with a slight sound, which made Consort Zhao's charming face look weird. Suddenly, the palace door creaked open. It was Caichun, her close maidservant in a common dress who came in from outside.Looking at Caichun's pale and nervous face, Consort Zhao asked, "How was it? Is there anything wrong?""There was nothing wrong with it. But I came across the maidservant of Consort Yu on the way back and was almost discovered. If I had not pretended to be from the Empress' palace, they would have almost discovered me." Thinking about what had happened just now, Caichun still wanted to tremble nervously.Just now, on the way to the Mingyue Palace, Caichun happened to meet two Consort Yu's maidservants to get the food from the imperial kitchen. The Emperor was said to rest in Consort Yu's p
In the main hall, the Empress sat high up with a dignified look on her face, and Consort Su, Consort Wen, Consort Zhao, Consort Yu, and other beauties were seated on either side of her. It could be said that all the noble consorts in the imperial harem gathered in the hall. The entire hall was filled with beautiful women of different charms and sweet fragrance. Some of the women were fat, some thin, but all were charming.Mo Xuetong walked into the hall, looking straight ahead. Even though she was still young, she behaved in an elegant manner and remained a calm attitude. In the face of so many consorts, she did not look nervous at all. Instead, she seemed to have the disposition of a noble lady, as if she did not care about them at all. The consorts seated high all landed their eyes on her. As they saw her half-angry, half-happy, pretty face, a few of them, who had always thought of themselves as young and beautiful, immediately grew jealous."Greetings, Y
Mo Xuetong did not expect to meet Mo Yarui the moment she stepped out of the hall doors. A happy smile appeared on Mo Yarui's face as she saw Mo Xuetong coming out. She hurried over and curtsied to Mo Xuetong. "Greetings, Consort Xuan.""Forego formalities, Second Consort Mo." Mo Xuetong took a few steps forward and held Mo Yarui's hand warmly. She had a good impression of Mo Yarui. On the one hand, she felt pity for her. Ling Rui'er was aggressive and Feng Yuxuan was a man who took interest first. If it weren't for Assistant Minister Mo, she would have died without even knowing the reason. On the other hand, Mo Xuetong liked her temperament very much."Why are you still here at this time?" There was no shade where Mo Yarui had stood just now. Although it was between pillars, it was still extremely hot. Mo Yarui had a heatstroke before, so she must be very weak. "Are you feeling better now?""Never mind. I just stood for a while. I saw you ente
"If you don't want to give the South Pearl head accessory to others, just go to the Empress Dowager's palace and beg her to return it to you. I heard that the Empress Dowager has been doting on Consort Chu," someone mocked.Then there was a great gust of laughter.Ling Rui'er was both angry and hateful when she saw that someone was on Mo Xuetong's side. She had wanted to embarrass Mo Xuetong because she could not come up with a way to deny it. She did not expect Mo Xuetong to ask King Xuan to send the South Pearl head accessory to the Empress Dowager's palace. Ling Rui'er was so angry that she almost wanted to vomit blood."You... when did King Xuan give it to the Empress Dowager?" She knew that she could not make any more trouble when she saw the reactions of the crowd around her. Her father and uncle had warned her that if she did something indecent again, they would have another girl of the Ling family marry King Chu.At the tho
Consort Zhao seemed to be frightened by her cold gaze and stopped talking. The group of people walked towards the other end of the imperial garden.Mo Xuetong did not say anything and followed behind the madams, ladies, and young masters.All the people followed the palace maid to pass by several rockeries and came to a remote place. By the lake of the rockery lay a female corpse. There was windy, so it was cool and refreshing at first. But now, because of this female corpse, the whole place was filled with gusts of cold wind and made people feel scared for no reason.A few daring eunuchs went over, pulled the female corpse up, and laid it flat on the ground. Then they heard the palace maid who found the corpse scream with her hand covering her mouth. Suddenly, she pounced on the corpse and shouted in panic, "Your Majesty, it's Fei Huan.""Fei Huan?" The Empress froze for a moment as if she didn't remember this maid. She frowned.
"Elder brother, it's so lively here. There's something fun to watch. Let's take a look together." A lazy voice rang from behind the crowd. Everyone hurriedly made a path when they heard the voice. They saw Feng Yuxuan and Feng Yuran walking towards them together. Even though Feng Yuran was a step behind Feng Yuxuan, the young ladies were all looking back at his handsome and attractive face as well as his wild aura.Mo Xuetong immediately felt that all the girls around her were sighing in annoyance and jealousy. They all shot jealous glances at her. Now before she spoke, so many people were already jealous of her. She could not help but glare at Feng Yuran. "This man is really hateful.""Tong'er, why are you here too? You're not being bullied, are you?" Feng Yuran looked as if he did not see Mo Xuetong's glare. His lips curled up and a charming smile appeared on his handsome face. He looked at Mo Xuetong and walked towards her with large strides, ignoring th
