"Why are you back so late? Was it so troublesome?" When Mo Xuetong came back to her yard, Feng Yuran had already been waiting there. He threw down the book in his hand and looked up lazily. His bright eyes landed on her, a doting smile flashing in them.
Usually, he was not at home at this time. The situation in the court had suddenly changed and he had many things to deal with. Even though Emperor Zongwen doted on him the most, if he did not have a certain amount of strength, Mo Xuetong believed that Emperor Zongwen would not choose him. Compared to the kingdom, Emperor's love for him was a little lighter.
Then he was worried about her!
Thinking of this, Mo Xuetong smiled even more sweetly. She walked to the couch and blinked her shimmery eyes. "Not really. It was not so troublesome, but I learn something else."
Then she waved her hand and the maidservants in the room sensibly left one by one. Mo Ye had already gone to find Mo Feng
Mo Xuetong did not expect Shopkeeper Xing to be so efficient. The next morning, she received news that the woman in the painting was now in King Chu's Manor. She was Consort Chu's personal maid who usually stayed by Consort Chu's side, but she would not go out when Consort Chu left the manor. She would only help Consort Chu manage the matters of the manor.Yu Sirong had entered King Chu's Manor? Mo Xuetong did not expect a casual move of hers to be so useful.Mo Xuetong paused for a moment and then asked Mo Ye to send a message to Shopkeeper Xing, asking him to keep an eye on Yu Sirong's unusual actions. Yu Sirong returned to the capital secretly, but did not go to her parents or relatives. Instead, she sold herself as a servant and entered King Chu's Manor. Of course, it was not just because of her bad reputation that she was not allowed to live in the Yu Manor.In her past life, Yu Sirong was the victor. After Mo Xuetong married into Duke's m
King Chu's birthday banquet was neither too big nor too small. However, all the people who were related to King Chu came to the banquet. How could they not come? King Chu was the most popular prince now. King Chu was so close to the throne that officials who had little contact with him flock to visit him. As such, the tables that had been set were far from enough.Mo Yarui was in over her head and could barely have time to rest because the number of the table had to increase again and again. Although she was so busy, she did not forget to greet Ling Rui'er, who had been rounded. She was not so arrogant as to think that she was the most powerful mistress in the manor after Ling Rui'er had been grounded and she took over the power to manage the manor.As King Chu was still staying in the main courtyard, she knew that he was forced by the situation to imprison Consort Chu. And once the matter had settled, Ling Rui'er would still be Consort Chu, and Mo Yarui wo
The next day was King Chu Feng Yuxuan's birthday banquet. The gifts had already arrived yesterday, so there was no need to take gifts all the way. Feng Yuxuan was Feng Yuran's eldest brother and his relatives did not have to pay attention to empty forms. As such, his brothers' gifts were all sent to him one day earlier.This was to save the trouble of the birthday banquet. With their status, they did not care about whether the gifts were expensive or not because their gifts were often from the palace, each of which was a treasure. There was no need for these princes to compete with others. In this way, people would not think that their gifts were better than theirs as they were from the royal family, and in case that some people's gifts would be relatively shabby.Mo Xuetong did not want to attend such a banquet. She and Ling Rui'er hated each other. It could be said that they had been on bad terms since they met each other. So Mo Xuetong did not want to me
After a long while, the Sixth Princess put down Mo Xuetong's wrist and put on a look of slight apology on her face. "Eighth Sister-in-law, I... didn't find anything. I just feel that you're a little weak. Other than that, I didn't find anything else!"She meant that she was not good at medicine. No one demanded a princess's level of medical skill. It was not a big deal whether she was good at it or not. Especially in such a situation, she still reached out to examine Mo Xuetong. The Sixth Princess was more respected. It seemed that she was a really kind person.Mo Xuetong retracted her wrist as if she did not care. With a smile playing on her lips, she said sincerely, "You're too polite, Sixth Princess. Thank you for seeing me. His Highness has to thank you heavily later."It sounded as if the Sixth Princess had come specially to examine Consort Xuan. Then some people thought that maybe the Sixth Princess was a medical expert as Consort Xuan ha
Behind the rockery, a man looked at the woman at the corner in a daze. She walked casually under the tree with light steps. As the breeze blew gently, the hem of her dress fluttered loosely like fine sand, and the belt also danced in the wind, looking quite charming. There was only a delicate jade hairpin on her head. As the pearls on the hairpin swayed, her eyes appeared crystal clear and looked like water. Her dark pupils were like bright pearls.Her eyelashes were curved. As she slightly looked up, her thick and long eyelashes fluttered, making her as beautiful as a fairy.Was she like the woman who was so beautiful as to cause cities and kingdoms to fall?While he was staring blankly, someone suddenly pulled his sleeve. He turned around in a hurry and saw the manservant who took him in. The manservant stood behind him, sweating and said, "Sir Hong, why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time. Didn't I tell you not to go away
Hearing Mo Xuetong's casual words, Ling Rui'er felt that she failed to influence Mo Xuetong. She took a deep breath and bit her lip, suppressing the anger surging in her heart. Then she cast a glance at the yard not far behind the trees and her eyes darkened. An imperceptible cold smile appeared in her eyes.Even though Mo Xuetong didn't react to her words, Ling Rui'er did not believe that she would not react a while later."All right, Consort Xuan. Then I will not stand on ceremony. I will definitely come with His Highness to take a look at the garden of your manor in a few days. If there are some spots we like, we can improve our garden," she responded with a smile. Her tone was extremely friendly without her harsh intentions towards Mo Xuetong, as if there was no hidden strife between the two of them.Mo Xuetong glanced at her quietly before she rolled her watery eyes and nodded with a smile of unconcern. Then, she chatted with Ling Rui'er i
"What a shameless woman! How dare she have an affair with another man?""This is the noble King Chu's Manor. They are courting death.""I heard that the daughter of the Mo family is a gentle and virtuous girl. I didn't expect her to be such a slut. Didn't she claim that Consort Chu killed the child in her belly a few months ago? Perhaps it wasn't King Chu's child.""Consort Chu is a kind person. If that woman were in someone else's family, she would have been beaten to death." They brought forward the matter that Ling Rui'er had caused Mo Yarui to miscarry. Furthermore, everyone was on Ling Rui'er's side. Hearing their conversation, Ling Rui'er was so smug that she almost could not remain the angry look on her face.She killed three birds with one stone. Si Rong looked common but was very smart."After this incident, King Chu will definitely care more about me. Even the Emperor in the palace will feel that he was wrong
"Stop!" A cold shout came from behind the crowd. Ling Rui'er, who had almost lost her wits, immediately regained her sense. When she heard the voice at this point, Ling Rui'er's face paled and she fell to the ground. The maidservant standing beside her quickly held her up.Everyone turned around in shock. Feng Yuxuan and Feng Yuran had arrived graciously at the entrance of the yard. Most importantly, everyone saw a person they would never have imagined: Mo Yarui.Wasn't she having a private meeting with another man on the bed? Everyone's eyes swept past Mo Yarui's face and then landed at the man and woman, who were wrapped tightly in the quilt on the bed. If she wasn't Mo Yarui, then they would be able to see clearly that Consort Chu had framed Consort Xuan.Ling Rui'er insisted that the woman on the bed was Mo Yarui, and used all kinds of coincidences to prove that it was a trap set by Consort Xuan. According to her, all kinds of things had so
