Mo Ye moved quickly and flipped over the doors. Then, she moved the door aside from the inside. Mo Xuetong brought Mo Lan through the door that Mo Ye opened and entered.
Standing inside, she could see that the twisting path leading to the door inside was filled with weeds and pebbles. It looked extremely desolated. Mo Ye used her foot to move the weeds away and Mo Xuetong followed the path. There was an inexplicable feeling in her heart.
There were two entrances to the yard. The first lead to the main house. They pushed open the somewhat wrecked doors. There was a creak. The house was empty.
"Miss, I will go and clean up first before you come in." Mo Lan stood in front of Mo Xuetong worriedly. Even though she did not know where they were, she could see the wariness in Mo Xuetong's eyes. She knew that her mistress valued this place very much. As such, she did not stop her mistress from entering. However, she was still worried.
"
All was peaceful in the time after. The Empress did not do anything else after gifting gifts to a few more ladies. She did not make anyone a princess, or even a concubine. There was no change on the Emperor's side either. It was as if the Flower Appreciation Banquet was just a normal banquet. King Chu, King Yan, and King Xuan did not have any main wives. Of course, this did not mean that there were no beauties or concubines in their inner courtyards. King Xuan's inner courtyard was florishing. It was said that the wild and arrogant King Xuan had the greatest number of concubines. He had not returned for too long when he started bringing in concubines into his manor. Even though Emperor Zongwen was angry, there was nothing he could do. In the beginning, he would send someone to rebuke him and then, after that, it was too late for any scolding. The Emperor just allowed him to do what he wanted. However, this annoyed the Empress and Concubine Su greatly and
Where did the blood come from? The eunuch sprawled on the ground started to shake. He had already cleaned the traces of blood by his lips when he entered. He thought about how he was going to get through this. If the Empress found out that it was his blood that had been sprayed on her favorite niece's painting, he would definitely die. However, he dared not lie to the Empress. The Empress looked like she was going to get into an argument with King Xuan. There was not just one person who had seen him spitting blood on the painting after being hit by the guards. If they found out that he had sowed discord between the Empress and King Xuan, then he would definitely die. "What is it? Is it difficult for you to speak?" The Empress glared at him and her already stern face looked even sharper. "No, no, that's not it. It is your servant. I was hit earlier and I accidentally spat blood... on it." The eunuch shuddered and did not dare to speak again.
"Old Sir, First Miss's clothes are too long and won't fit Young Miss. It seems like she can't wear it." Mo He was frightened because Mo Xuetong almost fell. She hurried up and helped Mo Xuetong steady herself. She squatted down at Mo Xuetong's feet and gestured at the hems, pulling out a large swath of cloth and said awkwardly. Mo Huawen's smile disappeared when he saw that the clothes were obviously one size bigger. He pursed his thin lips. "Don't worry. Eldest Sister means well and has already sent these clothes three or four times. If I don't accept it, she will get angry. Since I can't wear it now, I will wear it in the future when I can." Mo Xuetong seemed as if she did not feel anything and smiled. She flicked the sleeves and walked on her toes, spinning around. Then, she laughed and said, "Father, does Tong'er look good wearing Eldest Sister's clothes?" The main daughter had to wear the daughter of a concubine, and looked so happy eve
"Father said that these clothes and cloth are not good. He will send someone to send new ones over." Mo Xuetong said with a gentle and likable smile. The servant holding the cloths at the door smiled wanly at the door. She could neither leave nor say. She wanted to slip away but was glared at by Mo Huawen coldly and did not dare move. She was secretly upset. She would not have come if Mo Xiu from First Miss's courtyard had not said that First Miss was ending gifts for Third Miss and that Third Miss would definitely be happy and tip her. How unlucky! She did not expect to make Third Miss upset and even anger Old Sir. The servant hated the little bi*ch Mo Xiu for sending her on this trip. She would definitely not take part in such matters again. "Are the clothes not good? They look beautiful!" Xu Yan did not know what happened and only felt that it was awkward for her to sit there. Her face was flushed and her heart beat wildly. She did not da
The first thing Mo Huawen did when he returned to the Mo Manor was to visit Mo Xuemin's Fuqing Garden angrily. He got the two servants to throw the clothes and cloth in their arms onto the table the moment he entered. He harrumphed coldly at Mo Xuemin who was seated at a corner doing embroidery. Then, he raised his robes and sat down. "Father, why have you come to visit Min'er today? You came at just the right time. I made you a robe." Mo Xuemin seemed as if she did not realize Mo Huawen's annoyance. She stood up gently and retrieved a grey long cotton robe from the couch beside her. The robe was folded neatly, and it looked as if she had put a lot of effort into it." Father, put this against yourself and see if the length and size are right. I'm afraid I didn't do it well, and you won't like it." Mo Huawen was furious. He pushed the robe away and pointed at the clothes on the table and said angrily, "Do you like it when you give your younger sister your
The reason why Yu Feng was here was simple. His younger sister had gone to him, crying. He was very angry but was trying not to show it. He asked, "Lord Mo, Feng'er is already so old. How can he represent the household with his status? He can't even have a good marriage. He is your only son. Do you intend to let him carry the name as the concubine's son forever?" It was indeed hard for Mo Yufeng to marry a noble young lady with his status as the concubine's son. Even though he was the only son of the family, Mo Huawen was still young. If he married another woman, she might bear him a son. That would become his main son, and he would one day represent the family. If that happened, who would care about a concubine's son? So what if he was the elder son! This was what the Yu family was most worried about. If Auntie Fang wanted to be acknowledged in her own family, she could not do so as a concubine. The Yu family would not allow a main daughter
Mo Xuetong did not know about what happened at the Yu's. Mo Huawen had not visited the next day, but Luo Mingzhu did. When she heard that Mo Xuetong was interested in going shopping, she was even more enthusiastic about it than Mo Xuetong. She said that she was familiar with the city and was familiar with various shops selling fabric and that she would accompany Mo Xuetong. Mo Xuetong had not wanted to go, and it was not as if she had to go. However, she was about to return home soon. She thought of how Old Madam Xu had taken care of her and wanted to embroider a warm headscarf for her. She did not have any suitable materials. As such, she decided to go shopping with Luo Mingzhu. Luo Mingzhu was more excited than Mo Xuetong on the carriage. She secretly peeked out from a corner of the window and would occasionally point out at the odd things on the streets and chatted with Mo Xuetong. Nanny Han, who accompanied Luo Mingzhu, was very sweet. S
"Can I ruin their reputations?" Ling Mingyan was pleased when she heard the nanny's casual tone. She thought about it and took two steps forward to whisper in the nanny's ears. "Yes, but you have to listen to me." The teaching nanny said. There were so many such incidents in the palace. How could she not know about these since she served the Empress closely? The Empress had arranged for her to be with Ling Mingyan not just to watch her. Ling Mingyan was, after all, the First Miss of the Ding General Manor. If she were bullied, it would be an embarrassment to the Ding General Manor and the Empress. "Alright!" Ling Mingyan answered quickly. She looked at the two viciously and said hatefully, "Nanny, I want to ruin their reputations. I want to see if they still dare to be so arrogant in front of me in the future." "Alright, but First Miss, you have to remember to keep your temper in check and be patient." The teaching nanny gestured to the othe
It was midnight when Feng Yuran came back from the palace that night. Under the light, Mo Xuetong's beautiful face looked pink, which he had been praying for for a long time. Although he was tired and dizzy, he felt relieved.Fortunately, Bai Yihao did not make a desperate bet. That day, he looked calm on the surface, but in fact, he was already sweating on his back.If Bai Yihao had threatened him with Tong'er's life...If, Bai Yihao was determined not to give up...If Bai Yihao wanted to get Tong'er even if he would destroy her...He would really don't know what to do!Fortunately, there were not so many "ifs". Fortunately, Bai Yihao let go in the end. Even though he had already known Bai Yihao's character, he was still very nervous and flustered at that time in that place. Caring too much disturbed the mind. In this life, Tong'er was his weakness, but it was the weakness that he was willing to have.
Looking at the confident Bai Yihao who had a smile in his eyes, Feng Yuran suddenly put on an enchanting smile. He squinted at him and asked, "Tong'er is smart. If she knew that it was your mother who poisoned her mother back then and the poison in Auntie Fang's hands was left by your mother, what would you do?"This was a fatal blow, and Bai Yihao hid it in his heart. He thought that no one would mention it!The smile froze on Bai Yihao's handsome face. For a moment, there was a hint of blood in the corner of his warm eye. He put away the smile on his lip corners and looked at Feng Yuran viciously. "You're really funny. How could that poison have something to do with my mother?"That was the topic he didn't dare to mention. He even felt guilty and his heart was even twisted."It's a strange poison, so it must have come from a strange place. There was no way for an ordinary concubine to get it. Even though Auntie Fang died in the r
Since Yan Kingdom had taken in some remainders of Ding General Manor, the country would definitely become the Qin Kingdom's enemy. Bai Yihao was the commander-in-chief of Yan Kingdom. On the surface, the only person in the Qin Kingdom who could suppress the troops of Ding General Manor was King Xuan, Feng Yuran. In the past, Fu General and King of Xian were on different sides of Ding General Manor. They seemed to be friendly on the surface, but in private, they held each other back.The war drew near. Feng Yuran bid farewell to Mo Xuetong and led the army to the border. It was winter, so it was a little cold. Mo Xuetong stood on a small mountain town outside the city gate and could not help crying with a handkerchief in her hand when she saw the purple general's robe disappear from her sight.Mo Xuetong felt sad and could not hold back her tears when she thought that he had to go to the battle field and could not sleep well. The war was urgent and he had to
Yan Empress heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing Lan Yanwen looking calm, she said politely, "That's right, that's right. I can't stay here any longer. I'll leave this to you." She was still the dignified Empress of the Yan Kingdom."Goodbye, Your Majesty!" Lan Yanwen lowered his head and bowed respectfully, which was no different from his usual attitude. Yan Empress waved her hand with satisfaction, took her people to get on the carriage at the back door and returned to the deep palace.Yan Empress left, surrounded by a large group of people. Lan Yanwen slowly raised his head, and his beautiful eyes were inexplicably deep in the flickering light. He stared at the back of Yan Empress and walked to Princess Royal's body that was lying on the ground, speechless for a moment.The night was very quiet, as if the sound of people's breathing could be heard!After a long time, Lan Yanwen ordered, "Somebody, take Princess Royal Mingzhu out! Alo
It was Yan Empress's voice!In the dark, Mo Xuetong didn't dare to move. She bit her lips and even held her breath, hiding in the rockery. Although it was secluded, Yan Empress came with so many people, and she might find her. If Mo Xuetong fell into her hands, it would be terrible!"Sister Yunruo?" Princess Royal helped Nanny Qin to stand firm under the light. Looking at Yan Empress, who was protected by a group of secret guards and eunuchs, she slowly restored calmness.There was no guard around her, and the only person beside her was Nanny Qin, who knew nothing about martial arts. She was sort of alone now.Mo Xuetong also saw Lan Yanwen hiding in the dark beside Yan Empress. "He came as well?"This small courtyard of the Lan family gathered all kinds of powerful personage unexpectedly. It was quite lively."Sister Mingzhu, it's not easy for you to remember me. Why don't you come to my palace to have a
Seeing that there was something wrong with his expression, the Yan Empress knew that Bai Yihao was still worried. She gave a sweet smile and wrapped her soft arms around Bai Yichen's neck. Her breath was fragrant and she smiled seductively in his ear, "Don't worry. He still thinks that I really want to send some people to the East Palace and have been focusing on investigating the women in the Beauty Gathering Palace. When we succeed in the harem, it will be too late for him to do anything.""The old man won't suspect us, will he?" Bai Yichen paused for a moment and was still a little worried."Don't worry. Even if he senses something is wrong, he can't tell his son. Most of the imperial physicians in the palace are our people. When the right time comes, whichever palace he will die in, it has nothing to do with us!" The Yan Empress smiled as her eyes raked over Bai Yichen's handsome face, and she looked even more charming.However, as the two
With a thud, the memorials to the throne on the table were slammed to the ground, and Emperor Zongwen's face had darkened."Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself." Regardless of the memorials to the throne that were scattered all over the ground, Liu Xi hurriedly turned around to support Emperor Zongwen, who was about to fall down with one hand covering his chest. His usually calm face was filled with anxiety and panic."B*tch, that b*tch, how dare she... deceive me!" Emperor Zongwen's face was purple. He reached out to cover his chest and said a few words with difficulty. As he opened her mouth, he spat a mouthful of blood. Liu Xi only had time to cover his mouth with a handkerchief before he immediately became dispirited and was helped to sit on the throne."Your Majesty, please take care of yourself. Even if you don't look out for yourself, you still have to consider His Highness," Liu Xi persuaded anxiously as he served E
In the dark night, the wind rushed backward and poured into Mo Xuetong's mouth and nose. Her eyes were blurred. Subconsciously, she stretched her arms behind her, held the comer's waist tightly and buried her head deeply in his arms. Then she let out a breath slowly, her nose full of the scent of a familiar man. As she breathed, his scent heavily enveloped her, which made her feel inexplicably relieved and softened.The man gave a little chuckle in her ear, and his warm breath fell on her earlobe, making her itch like a feather. "Tong'er, don't be afraid. It's me!"In the satisfied sigh, she felt that his grip on her body was getting tighter.His voice was mellow and leisurely, like the alcohol that had been brewed for many years and was filled with an intoxicating aura.There was less noise following him. He landed lightly on a horse in front of him. Then Mo Xuetong was turned around and landed steadily in his embrace.
Mo Xuetong did not use the Lan family's horse carriage. There was indeed a horse carriage sent from the Crown Prince's East Palace parked at the entrance. After they got on the horse carriage, Qing Zhu asked, "Miss, how did you know that the person is not the true head of the Lan family?" There was nothing different in air, deportment, or appearance between the man and the head of the Lan family."I am just an orphan daughter of the Lan family. Even if the Lan family values me, there is a limit. Even if I can enter the East Palace in the future and be favored by His Highness, it will still be a matter of the future. The Lan family does not lack beauties in their back courtyard. It is already a great honor for me to send Minister of Public Works to meet me. It is said that Minister of Public Works is the best husband in the hearts of the princesses," Mo Xuetong stated with a faint smile. She took the tea that Qing Zhu poured for her and took a sip before she leisurely re
