Legitimate Daughter Never Be Concubine - C44

Su Jinyue’s pupils contracted a little as she said, “Esteemed Empress, everyone has their own destiny. My destiny with the Ninth Prince is shallow, so that’s why it ended up like this. Furthermore, since Ninth Prince has married his sister, I feel happy in my heart. “Right now, His Majesty has pitied me and issued an imperial decree for me to marry His Highness the crown prince in the future. This is already a blessing in disguise.”

The empress narrowed her eyes at Su Jinyue’s words. Marrying the Crown Prince was a blessing in disguise, then if she were to marry the Ninth Prince, would that be a disaster in her eyes?

“Girl, do you like the crown prince now?” The queen raised her eyebrows, the emotion in her phoenix-like eyes became much weaker. “This is my fault. If I had known, I would have chosen the crown prince when I was engaged to your mother. not Xiao Jiu. ”

If you want to know whether one person values another, you only need to listen to the way she calls the other. The Queen’s hatred towards the Crown Prince was expressed in her name as well. He didn’t even want to call the Crown Prince by his first name, but called him so intimately.

The Queen was so annoyed that she did not even try to hide it.

Perhaps this was the reason why the empress had dismissed the match?

As she thought that, Su Jinyue couldn’t help but feel sorry for Mo Li. At the same time, there was also a trace of resonance. Of course, it was only a little. Because she had never expected much from the start for Old Man Su, she naturally wouldn’t be too disappointed and would only feel puzzled.

They were obviously his daughters, but why was he so cold and detached from her?

Why was he so disgusted with the crown prince for the sake of his own son, who was clearly the empress?

As she thought about it, Su Jinyue deliberately revealed a shyness on her face. She looked at Mo Li beside her and said, “Being able to be together with the crown prince is my good fortune.”

“Is that so?”

The empress disapproved. His eyes were cold.

Mo Li didn’t think that the usually astute Su Jinyue would deliberately anger his mother like this. For a moment, a feeling that even he didn’t understand emerged in his heart.

He could have gone along with his mother’s words and pretended that he didn’t know anything to make her happy. Why did it have to be like this? He wouldn’t blame her. After all, there was no feeling between him and her in the first place.

The so-called marriage was just an imperial edict he had asked for, a deliberate chess game. How could the pawn possibly protect its master like this?

Mo Li stepped forward as he thought, “Imperial Mother entered the palace just now. Please don’t scare her.”

The empress was surprised by Mo Li’s words. All these years, she and the Crown Prince had already developed to the point where other than mocking and ridicule, they didn’t talk much.

Heh! She really fell in love with this girl?

Thinking of this, the sinister look in the empress’s eyes became even more intense. She looked at Su Jinyue and a gentle smile suddenly pulled her to sit by the side. It was directly in front of Mo Li, who was kneeling on the ground.

“Jin Yue girl, I heard that you jumped into the river for Xiao Jiu? Was this real or fake? “If that’s true, why don’t I go beg the emperor for you and have him give you a new marriage with Ninth Prince?”

The empress said half-jokingly. He completely ignored Mo Li.

Mo Li’s expression turned cold.

Look, this is his mother.

When Su Jinyue heard the empress’s words, she felt even worse. Was this the empress who wanted her daughter-in-law to remarry?

Was the palace really going to be alright?

As she thought about it, Su Jin’s face showed that she had been decisive in her rejection. Looking at the empress, a trace of helplessness could be seen in her eyes, “Esteemed empress, if you miss it, then you missed it. Now that the Ninth Prince has a sister, and I have a beloved Crown Prince. ”

“A woman’s admiration will change.” The queen’s words were meaningful.

When Su Jinyue heard that, the corner of her mouth twitched. She then revealed a sad look and said, “Esteemed Empress, it was His Highness who saved me when I was at my worst. His Highness didn’t care that I was abandoned by the Ninth Prince and saved me. My heart is no longer with Ninth Prince either. ”

“Oh? Then, what if I insist on giving you and Xiao Jiu another marriage? ” The queen’s eyes were cold.

When Su Jinyue heard this, she could not help but curse the empress for being crazy. However, she still showed a shocked expression on her face and then decisively said, “I would rather die.”

“Really?” The empress raised an eyebrow.

“Yes.” Su Jinyue gritted her teeth and cursed the Queen in her heart for eighteen generations.

“Muhou, enough of a joke.” Mo Li’s tone was so cold that it could fall apart. Looking at the empress, there was no trace of kindness in her eyes.

The empress smiled when she heard this. With a loving look on his face, he said: “Alright, alright, look at how scared you are. How could I possibly be such a love-struck person? Moreover, if Xiao Jiu were to miss out on this girl, how could I do such a thing? I just wanted to test if the two of you really liked each other. ”

“Thank you mother for your concern. There is no need to test if we are sincere.” Mo Li’s tone was still cold. He had already stood up and was protecting Su Jinyue by his side.

Although he didn’t like Su Jinyue, it didn’t mean that he had to tolerate others using Su Jinyue to trample on him.

“Your mother cares about you too, child. Previously, Xiao Jiu’s hasty decision to marry the second young miss of the Su Family was disregarded by me. Now, those unsightly words from the outside world make one’s heart tremble. ” As the Queen spoke to here, she glanced at Su Jinyue.

He only saw that Su Jinyue’s expression did not change at all. For a moment, there was a trace of doubt. That incident, could it be that it really was not done by Su Jinyue?

But Xiao Jiu and that Su Jin Xiu insisted that it had something to do with Su Jin Yue.

“Imperial Mother, Ninth’s matter is truly infuriating. Those bandits actually dared to kidnap someone from the royal family. This was truly outrageous. “After this feast, I will request for an order to eliminate the bandits.” Mo Li said seriously.

Mo Li’s life was exquisite, but when he became serious, he was especially imposing. Su Jinyue looked at Mo Li and thought, maybe this is what a crown prince should look like?

Unfortunately, Mo Li could only do this when facing the empress.

Those who didn’t know what kind of enmity this mother and son pair held.

The empress heard Mo Li’s words and nodded her head in satisfaction. “Mm, that’s how it should be.”

“Esteemed Empress.” Outside the door, Aunt Ming Zhu walked in, holding a brocade box in her hands. At this moment, a hint of hesitation could be seen on her cold face.

“Bring it here.” The empress reached out her hand to the woman.

Hearing this, Aunt Ming Zhu could only give the box to the empress.

The Queen held the embroidered box and looked at Su Jinyue and the Crown Prince. A faint smile appeared on her face as she handed the box over to Su Jinyue and said, “Since you are engaged to the Crown Prince, I can’t give you anything. This box, I’ll give it to you.”

“Many thanks, esteemed empress.” Su Jinyue took the box but did not open it.

“Why don’t you open it and take a look?” The Queen looked at Su Jinyue, waiting for her to open the box.

When Su Jinyue heard this, she hesitated for a moment before slowly opening it. She saw a black dagger lying inside. Su Jinyue was stunned.

Generally speaking, wouldn’t gifts given to juniors by the royal family be as they wish? What the hell was this dagger?

Su Jinyue, who was still puzzled, naturally did not see the strong hatred in Mo Li’s eyes.

“Muhou, didn’t you take the wrong gift?”

“Of course not. This item was the spoils of war that you personally killed your own uncle.” Your royal father even said that you exterminated your family for a right, that you had the style of a royal family. This is your honor, why not give this to your Crown Princess? ” The empress still had a smile on her face, but the hatred in her eyes was no longer concealed.

When Su Jinyue heard this, she finally understood. The grudge between these two people was not as simple as Mo Li had said it was. He had personally beheaded his own uncle?

Just the thought of it sent chills down one’s spine. No wonder the empress would treat Mo Li like this. As Su Jinyue thought about it, she looked at Mo Li, only to see that his expression wasn’t very good.

Su Jinyue was hesitating on whether to accept this hot potato in her hand.

Su Jinyue’s thoughts only stayed for a moment. After carefully observing the dagger, she decided to keep it. Not to mention the matter between the two of them, she shouldn’t have gotten involved. Just based on the empress’s uncertain attitude, she couldn’t afford to offend the empress today.

At most, he would just give the dagger to Mo Li in the future.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyue respectfully said, “Thank you very much, esteemed empress.”
