Legitimate Daughter Never Be Concubine - C123
“Everyone.” Just as everyone was discussing privately, a cold and ancient voice echoed. Everyone heard his voice and did not dare to speak.
The person who had arrived also walked up to the Emperor and said, “Your Majesty, I thank you for your cooperation in this year’s trip to Peach Blossom Town. From next year onwards, the Peach Blossom Town will not be reopened, and I will offer sacrifices to the heavens in the capital. ”
Grandmaster Mu’s voice was very faint, but his words stirred up everyone in the crowd. It was for no other reason but because the capital was offering sacrifices to the heavens! This meant that State Grandmaster Mu would not return to Peach Blossom Town, and would instead concentrate on supporting the Ming-Yue Empire!
How could they not be excited by this?
Although they didn’t know why he changed his mind, that didn’t stop them from being excited. Of course, the one who was the happiest was the emperor!
“We will naturally follow the decision of the State Grandmaster. On the day that the Imperial Advisors return to the capital, I will definitely bring a hundred civil and military officials to welcome them. ” The emperor said with a friendly expression.
Grandmaster Mu only nodded slightly. He didn’t care about the Emperor’s attitude. After announcing that he would return to the capital, he left.
With his departure, everyone knew that the Heaven’s Altar ceremony was over. The emperor also stood up and said, “It’s late today. I’m tired. All of our beloved officials should have already returned. ”
As soon as his words fell, he heard the shrill voice of the eunuch accompanying him say, “Your majesty, take off!”
The empress followed close behind the emperor, and they walked side by side.
With the departure of the emperor’s queen, there was no need for the ministers to stay. They all left in groups of twos and threes. Luo Mingyu walked in the center, looking as lonely as ever.
Su Jinyue’s gaze followed the man’s figure. Then, a pair of hands appeared before him. Puzzled, she raised her head and saw Mo Li looking at her indifferently.
“We should return.” Mo Li reminded.
Su Jinyue was stunned. She nodded and followed Mo Li.
“I wonder what’s so good about this woman. It’s worth it for His Highness the Crown Prince to like her so much.” The person who spoke was Yun Ling’er, who was sitting not far away from Princess Ziyan.
At this moment, Yun Ling’er had already forgotten about her conversation with Su Jinyue in the Cherry Blossom Forest. She was still hostile towards Su Jinyue.
“Cousin Yun’er, don’t spout nonsense. Your elder sister must be talented to be able to get His Highness’s favor.” Elder sister’s zither music is so beautiful that even Young Master Yun … ” Su Jin’s voice was soft with a trace of regret. He didn’t finish his words.
It was enough to make one daydream!
Nearby, Princess Zi Yan felt that she was about to lose control of the anger in her heart when she heard these words. He stood up and smiled at Su Jin Xiu and Yun Ling’er in a dignified and generous manner. “Miss Su’s zither music is indeed very pleasant to listen to. I wonder who can teach such a person.”
Zi Yan’s words, however, stunned Su Jin Xiu!
That’s right! Who taught her? All these years, Mother always suppressed that bitch Su Jinyue, but she never found her any master!
Could it be that she had secretly learned it? But even if he was secretly learning, he should at least have a master!
Su Jin Xiu was bewildered. Princess Zi Yan took in Su Jin’s expression and said thoughtfully, “This person is truly terrifying.
Ninth wangfei, it’s already late, are you going to come back with me? ” Princess Zi Yan looked at Su Jinxiu with a smile on her face.
Su Jinxiu never thought of refusing because Princess Ziyan’s words really interested her.
“Ling’er, the Ninth Prince has matters to attend to, so the princess and I will be leaving first.” You should remember to go back with your cousin later, don’t get into any trouble. ” Su Jin’s smile was gentle as he said this to Yun Ling’er with concern.
“Cousin, don’t worry.” I’m not a child. ” Yun Ling’er winked at Su Jin Xiu, then went to look for Yun Zhen Shui who was wiping the White Jade Zither.
Looking at Yun Zhishui, Yun Ling’er’s eyes sparkled. “Big brother, shall we head back?”
“Yes.” Yun Zhishui’s tone was indifferent. He merely acknowledged it and then stood up to hug Bai Yuqin. This scene caused Yun Ling’er’s heart to ache.
“Big brother only has Zither in his eyes.” Yun Ling’er couldn’t help grumbling.
When Yun Zhishui heard this, he gave her an indifferent glance and said, “The zither does not lie, but the world does. The zither music can see through the heart, and the heart is clear, so it is for the sake of nurturing the body and the mind. ”
Yun Zhishui’s tone was cold and clear. Yun Ling’er felt discontent when she heard this. “What guqin? It doesn’t know how to lie!” That Su Jinyue is obviously a despicable woman with an aquamarine personality, but her zither music has the likes of big brother. ”
“The Yun Family has never taught you to speak like this.” Yun Zhishui frowned slightly.
Yun Ling’er became even angrier. “You only know how to talk to me! When did he become an elder brother? Su Jinyue was obviously holding Fifth Uncle’s jade pendant, but you still couldn’t bring it back!
I think brother you also have fallen for that bitch! ” Yun Ling’er hooted.
After that, he saw Yun Zhishui’s gaze not waver as he looked at her and asked, “Are you done talking?” Yun Zhi’s words caused Yun Ling’er to tremble. Seeing Yun Ling Shui, she suddenly realized what she had just said and became flustered for a moment.
“Brother, I … I didn’t do it on purpose. “I just …”
“The Yun Family rules a hundred times. Execute it when you get back. If you do not finish copying it, you are not allowed to leave the manor. ” Yun Zhishui’s tone was ice-cold, without a single trace of emotion.
There wasn’t even the slightest bit of anger.
Yun Ling’er couldn’t help but laugh at herself as she looked at the man’s back, which was devoid of any feelings for her. Everyone in the world said that she was the young miss of the Yun Family, and that she had an outstanding brother like Yun Zhishui.
Everyone envied her, but who knew? This so-called brother had never cared about her? Even if it was a personal protection, it was only because of the Yun Family’s rules, that was all.
In his eyes, only Zither could move him. Other than this, nothing else would enter his eyes. This person always rejected everyone’s intimacy in a cold and detached way.
Even the closest ones.
Or perhaps, in his eyes, she wasn’t even worthy to be his relative. Yun Ling’er thought to herself as she endured the soreness in her heart and caught up to Yun Zhishui.
Even if it was because of the Yun Family’s rules, she had to keep this knowledge. Without the cloud stopping the water, she would return to that life of contempt.
That was something she could not tolerate.
Thinking this, Yun Ling’er gritted her teeth and ran a few steps.
The night was just right, and the inside of Peach Blossom Town was completely silent. The people on the street walked back and forth. Under the moonlight, they still looked weird.
The people who came to pay their respects to the heavens all went back to rest.
The next day at dawn, when the emperor’s carriage was the first to leave, the ministers’ carriages also left the Peach Blossom Town. Su Jinyue sat on Mo Li’s carriage and looked back at the scenery of the Peach Blossom Town.
“After we return, I’ll go ask my royal father to set a date for our marriage. How about it?” Just as Su Jinyue was looking at the scene behind her, she heard the faint sound of a man’s voice. It exploded in Su Jinyue’s ears!
Su Jinyue turned her head and looked at Mo Li in disbelief. Without hesitation, she asked, “Did you eat the wrong medicine?”
Mo Li choked and looked at Su Jinyue, “I need a princess consort.”
“Am I not?” Su Jinyue asked.
“An imperial edict will one day be taken back.” Mo Li looked at Su Jinyue. He clenched his hands into fists under his sleeves and looked at her, hoping that she would nod.
Then, he saw Su Jinyue shake her head decisively.
“Your highness should have promised Luo Mingyu and I that you wouldn’t marry me.” Could it be that His Highness already wants to break the contract? ” Su Jinyue’s eyes were clear and full of questions.
It was this gaze that caused Mo Li’s heart to be unable to flee.
What should he say? That he wanted to break the contract? Even if he were to kneel in front of her and ask for her hand in marriage, the result would only be a cold refusal.
Since that was the case, why did he have to give him face?
As he thought about it, Mo Li only said, “I’m just worried that you might have too many enemies. If it’s only an engagement, I’m afraid it won’t be able to protect you.”
Hearing that, Su Jinyue immediately laughed, “Does Your Highness think that I am made of paper? “An Xin, as long as Your Highness continues to let me take advantage of them, sooner or later, I’ll make them completely give up on the idea of causing trouble for me.”
What Su Jinyue said was not a lie.
Mo Li believed Su Jinyue’s words. After all … This woman always had an idea. He only asked casually. The result was exactly as he had expected, he was rejected.
Mo Li restrained his thoughts and slowly closed his eyes.
