Legitimate Daughter Never Be Concubine - C13
Seeing her run away, the smile on Mo Li’s face gradually disappeared, and what replaced it was an ice-cold expression. He threw the wine cup he had prepared in the pavilion onto the ground, and the shattering sound of the jade artifact could be heard.
As the sound of his voice faded, the old man in the green robe walked over from the other side of the bridge. When he walked into the pavilion, Mo Li was already sitting on a stone bench. Seeing Mo Li’s unsightly expression, the elder knelt on the ground and said, “Master.”
Hearing this, Mo Li slowly opened his eyes. His expression was complex. “Uncle Qing.”
“I wonder why Master is so angry?”
“Who let young miss Su in here today?” Mo Li asked with an unfriendly tone.
Young miss Su? The old man was stunned at first, then he understood what was going on. He said, “It’s this old servant.”
“Uncle Qing, you have always been a calm person, you would never do something like this. Who exactly is it?” Even if Uncle Qing were to shield me, I will definitely find him. ” Mo Li looked at the old man in green with a complicated expression.
In this crown prince’s residence, he would not hesitate to punish anyone, even taking their lives. Only… Uncle Qing.
Back then, if it wasn’t for Uncle Qing, perhaps he would have already become a ghost in the Imperial Palace?
Seeing that Mo Li didn’t believe him, a trace of helplessness appeared on the old man’s face.
He only said, “It really is this old servant. Today, this young lady is dressed in black and is extremely mysterious.” He also wore Luo Mingyu’s jade pendant, this old servant only sent a letter in front of King Luo.
Although she had her suspicions because she was a girl, she thought that the Jade Emperor Bead was extremely important, so why would she give it away so casually? Even if he wasn’t the one delivering the letter, he was afraid that he might not be related to King Luo. Thus, he sent this person over. They didn’t know that this man was actually the future princess consort.
Hearing Uncle Qing’s explanation, Mo Li’s face eased up, and then he said, “That’s right, even I didn’t think that Luo Mingyu would actually send out the jade pendant.
I never thought that Miss Su would come to the Crown Prince’s Palace for Luo Mingyu. “What virtue and ability does Luo Mingyu have to have a woman to refuse the position of Crown Prince’s consort?”
“A woman’s heart is the easiest to change. In the future, when the Crown Prince treats her well, her heart will always be close to yours.” Uncle Qing said respectfully.
Hearing that, a smile appeared on Mo Li’s face. He picked up the other wine cup and played around with it, “A woman’s heart? I’m not interested. I’m just curious to see how far Luo Mingyu will go for this woman.
Women are all the same to me. If Luo Mingyu is not willing to pay the price, then I will just marry an interesting woman.
If you like… I’ll be the one to profit.
However, no matter what, the choice was still in their hands. I just casually made a decision, that’s all. Uncle Qing, you speak the word ‘love’ so arduously, why is there still someone who would sacrifice everything for you? Even though I know that I will never be able to recover from this calamity, I still can’t help but go and touch it.
“Your highness is wise, to be able to see others not to see, to be able to guess others’ hearts, of course you see things even higher. However, to ordinary people, you would never be able to see through it.” Uncle Qing said respectfully.
“True.” Mo Li’s smile deepened, as if he had thought of something interesting.
And at this time, there was only the sound of someone hurriedly rushing to the other side of the bridge. Then, a man wearing an inky blue robe stepped forwards. When they arrived in front of him, Mo Li’s eyebrows rose as he smiled playfully, “To think that King Luo would personally visit us.”
Luo Mingyu walked into the pavilion. Today, his body was a dark green, and he looked a bit more refined and less icy. Her red eyes were cold as she gazed at Mo Li’s smiling face. She bowed and said, “Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
“King Luo is the king with a different surname from my royal father, and he also has the Emperor’s grace on him. There’s no need to be overly courteous. “Uncle Qing, bring the Dragon Mountain Tea over.” Mo Li looked at Luo Mingyu without changing his expression, not asking any questions.
Seeing Mo Wuji speak, Luo Mingyu’s eyebrows slightly rose, “It is said that the Dragon Mountain Tea of the Crown Prince’s Palace is the best tea in the world and has never come before. Now that I can drink it, I am very lucky.” Luo Mingyu said lightly.
Hearing that, Mo Li’s smile became even wider. Then he heard Luo Mingyu’s words and changed the topic, “But … I have come here today because I have a request. I don’t need to drink this tea. ”
“Oh? What is it? How can it make King Luo so anxious that he doesn’t even want to drink tea? ” Mo Li asked with a puzzled expression. It seemed to be true. If it wasn’t for the fact that he knew Mo Li’s personality, anyone who saw this scene would have believed him.
Of course, that didn’t include Luo Mingyu.
He didn’t know who Mo Li was. As he thought this, Luo Mingyu looked at Mo Li and said bluntly, “The Crown Prince is a wise man, why would he pretend to be ignorant?”
“Hmm?” Mo Li raised his eyebrows and smiled, “I presume King Luo is doing this for the imperial edict?”
“Your Highness is intelligent. Miss Su and I are in love, so I ask for Your Highness’s help to have the Emperor retract his order. Luo Mingyu said, standing up and bowing.
Seeing Luo Mingyu act this way, the smile on Mo Li’s face deepened. Looking at the humble Luo Mingyu, he was truly surprised. The normally proud and arrogant Luo Mingyu seemed as if nothing could make him bend his waist.
Affection… Was there really such magic? How could someone have made such a huge change in just a few short days?
Mo Li could not believe it, but the facts were laid out in front of him.
Mo Li’s smile remained on his face as he dismissed the strange thoughts in his mind.
There was a playful expression on her delicate face: “I didn’t expect that the first time Prince Luo and I would make a request was for a woman. Logically speaking, I shouldn’t have refused, but … royal father’s decree has already been passed down and the so-called sacred fate is hard to take. Even I am willing to bear the consequences of angering royal father. ”
“Your Highness, we all know what’s good for you. Just let her go and speak your mind freely.” Luo Mingyu frowned, no longer continuing to circle around him.
If he went back too late, there was no telling what would have happened to him. If it wasn’t for the decree, he wouldn’t even have left the manor.
Luo Mingyu’s straightforward words caused Mo Li to be slightly stunned. According to his understanding of Luo Mingyu, this person had always been patient. How could he be here today?
Mo Li didn’t want to continue playing games with him. He lowered his eyes and said, “In this world, everything comes at a price. As long as you pay a sufficient price, you can get what you want.”
“Then, what is Your Highness asking for?” Luo Mingyu asked.
“What I want is something that King Luo should know, right?” Mo Li said with a faint smile. He picked up the wine cup on the table and looked into the lake through the wine cup. Luo Mingyu pursed her lips without saying a word. Looking at Mo Li, his expression turned dark.
“King Luo, do you think this Ming-Yue Empire’s Jiang Shan is good?” Mo Li asked.
“After being run by the royal family for generations, the Ming Empire is naturally very good.” But he still remained calm and collected. He had a rough idea of what Mo Li was asking for, but the price was too high.
“Do you think that the Moon Empire is very good?” Mo Li looked back at him, taking away the wine cup in his hand. His eyes were full of ridicule. “I’m afraid those words are not true, right?”
“Why does Your Highness say that?” Luo Mingyu frowned. A trace of ill intent flashed across his jade-like face.
Seeing him like this, Mo Li couldn’t help but laugh out loud. His face was pale and his smile was deep. “Of course it’s because we’re the same person.”
Luo Mingyu heard this and was about to speak when Mo Li continued, “King Luo, there is no need to refute. I have already known who you were since the first time I fought with you.
We are the same, and I… The Moon Empire, which had long been riddled with holes, hated this effort to the extreme. Didn’t you just ask me what I want? You should know my answer, right? “
