Having known about Hu Qianyue's secret, Crown Prince Xieyue felt assured. "My Lady, I remember when we first met, you told me that you were the third miss of the Mo family. I didn't expect that you would marry King Xuan at such a young age. You are already Consort Xuan now!" he said to Mo Xuetong in a soft voice.
Ever since they met, there was always such a slightly cold beauty in his dreams. So when he learned that she died in Consort Yan's plot, he was so furious that he almost couldn't control himself who had always been clam.
Later, he used Princess Caifeng as a tool to plot against King Yan. Besides, marrying Hu Qianyue into King Yan's Manor was also part of his scheme. Now that King Yan's Manor wanted to make peace with the Southern Barbarian Lands by a marriage, he would make King Yan marry a woman who was said to be the Third Prince's wife. If Feng Yulei really married Hu Qianyue, what he would get was the anger of the Southern Barbarian Lands.
<In King Xuan's Manor, Hu Qianyue was so ill that she could not get up; so was You Yue'e in King Yan's Manor, and she almost lost the baby in her belly.She had a fever when she returned to King Yan's Manor that night. According to the imperial physician, she was depressed inwardly and seemed to be in a bad mood recently. That was why You Yue'e had almost lost her baby. So she could only lie on the bed today and did not dare to move. She was determined to prevent miscarriage.Upon hearing the news, the Empress was so anxious that she immediately sent a nanny from the palace to visit You Yue'e. She also asked a few people to serve and protect the pregnant woman by her side.If You Yue'e gave birth to a son this time, King Yan taken more than one step ahead of the other princes, so he would also have a great advantage. Since the other princes, including King Chu, King Ning and King Xuan, hadn't had a son—the Emperor's little grandson, the Emperor
"She is a prince's future consort and from such a powerful family. What's more, I heard that the Third Prince is the legitimate son of the current Empress. The future Emperor of the Southern Barbarian Lands might not be Crown Prince Xieyue!" Even though You Yuecheng's words were reserved, the Sixth Princess had understood what he meant."Then what should we do now?""Don't do anything but wait." You Yuecheng looked at the Sixth Princess who had obviously turned happy with a hint of darkness in his eyes. "Sixth Princess, you are too impatient!""Am I impatient?" The Sixth Princess frowned, looked at You Yuecheng, and said hesitantly, "I... Father... Xieyue, I'm afraid... I don't want to marry into the Southern Barbarian Lands."After that, she looked at You Yuecheng with sad eyes. Suddenly, she lost control and grabbed You Yuecheng's hand. "Your Excellency, am I continue waiting? I can't wait any longer! If we continue waiting, Fath
Hu Qianyue was ill. Crown Prince Xieyue was very busy and the engagement was settled. King Ning, Feng Yuzhen was unwilling to come to the manor. Of course, the other princes would not come to the manor again for the sake of their reputation. As for Princess Caifeng, she was really depressed.After arriving in the Qin Kingdom, she was always surrounded by the crowd, but now she found that there was no one around. How could Princess Caifeng not feel depressed? She originally wanted to go to the backyard to see Consort Xuan, but before her maidservant arrived at the backyard, she was stopped by Feng Yuran's men."Consort Xuan doesn't feel well. After visiting Miss Hu that day, she caught a cold. So she couldn't accompany Princess Caifeng now. Please understand." The person who spoke was very polite, but his attitude was not very good. He looked up at the sky and was disdainful of the maidservant sent by Princess Caifeng, which made the maidservant angry.
"Mother, I saw Elder brother and someone of the Yu family on the streets earlier." Mo Xuetong went straight to the point. "Doesn't Elder brother need to study these days?"Mo Huawen had asked Mo Yufeng to take the last imperial exam, and naturally, he didn't pass it in the end. Fortunately, his family members knew that he was likely to fail and did not hold out much hope for him."Isn't he in the yard? Why did he sneak out again?" Xu Yan frowned and answered uncertainly, who had never had a good impression of Mo Yufeng. Even though she had never skimped him, she usually did not want to interfere in his matters. As such, Xu Yan did not ask much about his situation.Mo Xuetong keenly grasped the meaning of her words and continued to ask, "Secretly?""Yeah." Xu Yan gave a sigh. "After the exam, he had gone out to meet a few friends. He even met one of them in a brothel and your father happened to see him, who sent servants to take him
In her past life, many things were hidden in mists, and Mo Xuetong was the most important tragic person. There were countless people involved in it. Sometimes all those people seemed to have something to do with her, and sometimes none of them seemed to have anything to do with her. On the surface, Auntie Fang and Mo Xuemin were the ones who had caused her tragedy.But how many things had happened behind the scenes? And how many people were involved in it?As for the girl who died in the hands of her elder sister born of a concubine in the backyard, what a turbulent situation she once had faced beneath such a surface!Fortunately, she would no longer grin and bear it, nor would she return good for evil. She would no longer allow herself to be blinded, and instead, she saw the truth through the phenomenon. Step by step, she would carefully deal with restless people and evil things.Even though Mo Xuetong only had a few memories of A
Auntie Qing immediately became vigilant when Mo Xuetong mentioned Mo Yufeng. She wiped her tears and stole glances at Mo Xuetong's face. As she did not find anything unusual about her expression, she explained carefully, "Eldest Young Master is pitiful now, and I lost Qiong'er. As I found that the maidservants in his yard couldn't take good care of him, I went to ask about it in person. That's why I have become a little closer to Eldest Young Master.""Do you mean that Madam didn't take good care of Elder brother?" Mo Xuetong's expression grew cold. A hint of anger appeared on her face as she harrumphed coldly."Ah... No, no, I didn't mean that Madam didn't take good care of him. Madam's body is getting heavier, and thus it's inevitable that she can't take care of everything. Eldest Young Master is a man, so it's normal that she can't take care of him in all aspects of his life." Auntie Qing shook her hand hurriedly. She didn't dare to say anything bad abou
It was the desolate season of autumn when the Peony Garden was the most deserted. Fortunately, even though the Peony Garden was famous for peonies, there were also other flowers. Mo Xuetong had especially chosen a pavilion beside a lotus pond to meet with Miss Cai Rong. They had not seen each other for some time and Miss Cai Rong looked good. When she heard Mo Xuetong's arrival, she hurriedly put down the watering pot in her hand and followed Mo Lan to the waterside pavilion.Seeing Cai Rong come in, Mo Xuetong politely invited her to take a seat.While looking at the lotus pond outside the pavilion, the two of them started to chat leisurely."Miss Cai Rong, what do you think of the lotus flowers in this pond? How is it compared to the lotus flowers in Jiangnan?" Mo Xuetong asked with a casual smile.Miss Cai Rong relaxed when she saw that Mo Xuetong did not put on airs. She had been living a good life these days. She did not even
Her parents and relatives had passed away. After she had gone through so many ups and downs and had been forced to earn a living by prostitution, Cai Rong only wanted to go back to normal and live an ordinary life. She did not want to recall the unbearable memories of the past. Thus, her expression grew calm when she heard Mo Xuetong's question."My Lady, I really do not have anything else to ask for. It would be a blessing for me to be able to live beside rivers and mountains and forget about the past." As Miss Cai Rong knew that Mo Xuetong wanted to help her sincerely, her eyes grew red. She no longer tried to refuse, and looked at Mo Xuetong expectantly. The past was too bitter and she did not want to think about it anymore.Originally, she thought that she could look forward to seeing her parents, but she found that she had already lost them! Sometimes, ideas occurred in an instant. At this time, Miss Cai Rong really didn't want to think too much. She j
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
