Shi Qingxue and Shi Baojing looked at each other speechlessly for quite a while.
Shi Baojing said, “I see. I am coming soon.”
She paused for a moment and then told Shi Qingxue, “I am fine. Don’t worry about me. Go back first.”
Concubine Tao’s intention was obvious.
She summoned Shi Baojing even though she knew that Shi Qingxue was here, so it was evident that she wanted Shi Baojing to go with Shi Qingxue to see her.
However, Shi Baojing told Shi Qingxue to go back.
Shi Qingxue couldn’t help laughing. She thought that Shi Baojing was capable of coping with the superior’s orders.
Qingxue didn’t want to get involved in the mess, so she nodded. “I am off now.”
Nevertheless, as soon as she got up, the maid outside said, “Your Highness, Concubine Tao is waiting in the side hall.”
“Gee!”
Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
In ord
After Concubine Tao realized this matter, the next things could be understood more easily.Mo Junzhan’s obsessiveness was to compete with Shi Qingxue on archery and win her once openly.Mo Junzhan liked the battlefield indeed these years and had learnt much to arrange battle arrays. He was always strict with himself by the standards of a general, but he had never slacked off on practicing archery.However, after both of them grew up, they had few chances to see each other, and the chances for them to compete on archery were slimmer.Concubine Tao didn’t need to guess with effort. After Mo Junzhan heard Shi Qingxue’s words, he would agree without hesitation.In this case, Mo Junzhan’s plan to go to the northern border far away in the near future would be...Even if Mo Junzhan was determined to guard the northern border, he would discuss with Shi Qingxue first as he couldn’t compete with her.
Shi Qingxue thought, “Why is this little prince still like the one in childhood who can’t suffer from frustration?”She had said only a few words, but Mo Junzhan was downcast again...Gee, he was really a kid.At the moment, Shi Qingxue would be really worried if Mo Junzhan went to the northern border.Who knew if the murderer behind the scenes in the previous life would take actions against Mo Junzhan again?Mo Junzhan might be good at fighting, yet he was inferior in playing dirty tricks. He would be fooled by others.“Of course, I don’t.” Shi Qingxue gave a negative answer without delay.When Mo Junzhan raised his head and looked at her, she didn’t avoid his eyes but stared at him calmly.Mo Junzhan finally looked relieved and had a smile on his face. “Then you...”“I just want to say that after you go to the northern border, I don’t know when you will come
Although Mo Xiangbin knew that his decision couldn’t satisfy everybody, after hearing Mo Junhao’s rebellious words, he was stunned evidently.Then he burst into anger.“Mo Junhao, do you know who you are speaking to?” Mo Xiangbin tried his best to restrain himself, yet his voice was trembling obviously.He was really pissed off.However, Mo Junhao was irritated a lot, and he had already forgotten everything.He didn’t admit his fault at once but sneered. “I certainly know what I am saying. You are really an old and fatuous man, right, Father?”Mo Xiangbin was speechless.It was his first time to be scolded as an old and fatuous man, and he choked and almost didn’t know how to lose temper.In the end, he couldn’t help laughing.He was too angry.“Junhao, I know that you are in a bad mood, so I won’t bother about your impertinent remarks today. Go ba
Quan didn’t see Mo Junhao, so he was worried all the time.He tried to find proper words and then asked, “Your Majesty, Prince Junhao...”“Junhao has returned home.” Before Quan finished his words, the one in the bed curtain said in a husky voice.“But I didn’t...”Quan wanted to say that he guarded the door all the time yet didn’t see Mo Junhao go away.However, he saw a crack on the window soon, while “Mo Xiangbin’s” roar appeared beside his ear. “Why not get out now?”Quan was scared after being rebuked, so he didn’t dare to guess.He trembled and answered, “Yes, yes. I am going.”Quan lowered his head and went away hastily to send the message.When Mo Junyu heard that he was summoned, he had gone to bed, while he could do nothing but get up and go to the imperial palace quickly.He came to the door of Mo Xiangbin’s bedroom and heard Quan knock
Ling Ruiyin stopped crying yet returned calm soon.She wiped the tears on her face calmly and then turned to Mo Junhao, asking unhurriedly, “What did you say?”Mo Junhao knew that Ling Ruiyin was partial to Mo Junyu, but now there was evidence, so he didn’t fear.He said calmly, “I said that Junyu killed Father. Grandma, please punish the murderer severely and avenge Father.”This time, no matter how Ling Ruiyin controlled herself, there was shock in her eyes.She finally noticed that Mo Junyu was pressed by some people and knelt on the floor. He looked at her and couldn’t move.“Grandma, I didn’t...”Mo Junyu tried to defend himself, while Mo Junhao rebuked in advance, “Who can it be except you? Father was fine earlier, but why did he pass away as soon as you entered the room? It was obvious that you killed Father in secret because you envy him.”“No! If I killed Father, w
Mo Junhao almost saw the throne in the large hall waving at him, so he was over the moon and more impolite to Mo Junyang.“What the hell is Mo Junyang?“After I take the throne, I will be the sovereign of the country. Won’t Mo Junyang have to bow to me?”At this thought, Mo Junhao looked at Mo Junyang with disdain.Mo Junyang didn’t mind but still kept expressionless, while Shi Qingxue behind him felt indignant for him.Huh!“Does this man really think that he can get that position if Mo Junyu is in trouble?“Stop daydreaming!”Shi Qingxue spat at Mo Junhao in secret. Not to mention that Mo Xiangbin had more sons besides Mo Junhao, even if only he was left, she would try every means to stop him from taking the throne.In the previous life, Mo Junhao had been on the throne for three years in comfort with satisfaction.Meanwhile, she was locked up in
Mo Junhao’s heart beat fast, with all kinds of thoughts flashing in his brain.He had thousands of excuses.He could argue that it was nothing as he and Mo Xiangbin made peace soon.He could say that it was only a spat between the father and son, and it couldn’t be the motive.He could even explain that even if he had the motive, so what? He didn’t have a chance to kill Mo Xiangbin.As long as Mo Junhao insisted that Mo Xiangbin was still alive when he left, Mo Junyang could do nothing to him.However, he didn’t know why he trembled involuntarily when he faced Mo Junyang’s horribly black eyes.He couldn’t speak out any excuses seemingly.Mo Junhao’s momentum was suppressed by Mo Junyang. He was the one who should be confident, but his confidence disappeared in front of Mo Junyang.In the end, he merely glared at Mo Junyang, being outwardly strong yet inwardly w
Mo Junhao’s aggressive question didn’t make Mo Junyang show anger or other negative emotions.Mo Junyang just stood there quietly. After Mo Junhao lost temper, he stated unhurriedly “The Empress Dowager told me to investigate the case, and I am checking the doubtful points of this case. I just deal with the matter on its merits. Why are you so anxious, Your Highness?”“I am not!” Mo Junhao retorted shrilly.He soon realized that he overreacted, so he quickly calmed down. “I just think that you are stalling for time. We have captured the prime suspect on the spot. You don’t interrogate the suspect first but waste time here. So people will doubt your intention inevitably.”After saying that, Mo Junhao smiled at Mo Junyang complacently.“Huh, don’t think that only you know how to shift the blame onto others. I can find fault with you,” he thought.Mo Junyang looked peaceful. “Your Highness, what are yo
