Legitimate Daughter Never Be Concubine - C46

Princess Xi’er’s words really made Su Jinyue at a loss for words. Mo Li, on the other hand, had a faint smile on his face. It seemed that he had gotten used to the rage he felt from the empress earlier.

At this moment, Mo Li was the same as usual. No one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

Princess Xi’er pulled Su Jinyue over intimately. On her exquisite face, there was a trace of affection. She slowly said, “In the future, I’ll leave this to you, your royal brother.”

If he didn’t know, Princess Xi Er would sound like a sister who was concerned for her brother. But with her last sentence, no matter how she listened, Su Jinyue felt it was strange.

But no matter what, this was a family matter. She had never thought of marrying Mo Li, so she naturally knew less. Thinking about this, Su Jinyue decided to play dumb. A harmless smile appeared on his face as he looked at Princess Xi’er. “Yes, I will take good care of your highness.”

Princess Xi’er was stunned by Su Jinyue’s attitude. But then, she turned to Mo Li. “Imperial brother, do you still have to pay respects to the Emperor?”

“Naturally.” Mo Li said.

“Then leave the girl here with me. I like her at first sight, so I want to talk more.” After saying that, Xi Er tightly held Su Jinyue’s hand.

Hearing this, Mo Li frowned. According to his original plan, he was going to bring Su Jinyue along as well. The backyard of the palace had never been a good place. If Su Jinyue was left alone here, something might happen.

However, the moment he thought of this, Mo Li was shocked by himself. Su Jinyue was just a chess piece that he had found. Since when had he … Have I started planning for a chess piece?

Wasn’t it his intention to ask her to help him share the pressure of this harem? With that in mind, Mo Li cleared away all the hesitation and said lightly, “Since it is my royal sister’s request, then let A’Yue stay.”

Hearing Mo Li’s agreement, a trace of happiness flashed in Princess Xi’er’s eyes, but only for a brief moment. He looked towards Mo Li and said, “Thank you, royal brother.”

“You and I, brother and sister, don’t need to thank me?”

“So what if it’s brother and sister? In your eyes, I’m afraid no one is more important than you. ” Princess Xi’er spoke with a touch of ridicule. After saying this, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said: “Alright, little brother, hurry up and leave. I want to talk to her.”

Mo Li’s expression was dark and gloomy. He nodded and then said to Su Jinyue, “I will pay my respects to royal father in a while. I will come pick you up during the Thousand-Autumn Banquet.”

“Alright.” Su Jinyue nodded with a smile on her face. Although this Princess Xi’er looked a little strange, she preferred to interact with her more than walking around the palace.

Seeing Su Jinyue nod, Mo Li turned and left. However, when he left, he felt a strange feeling that he couldn’t explain, like he was regretting it a little.

Thinking like this, Mo Li snorted disdainfully. He had never done anything that he regretted. It was clearly an illusion.

After Mo Li left, the smile disappeared from Princess Xi’er’s face. Her pale and beautiful face was filled with worry. Looking at Su Jinyue, her eyes filled with tears, she slowly said, “Thank you.”

“Huh?” Su Jinyue was stunned by the sudden change. What was this all about?

Seeing that Su Jinyue did not understand, Princess Xi’er restrained her expression and looked outside nervously. She then pulled Su Jinyue into the room. After closing the door and confirming that no one was there, she said seriously, “Don’t worry, I mean you no harm.”

After saying that, Princess Xi’er pulled Su Jinyue along and sat at the table. She looked at Su Jinyue with eyes full of affection.

Su Jinyue felt very uncomfortable under this gaze, but she still endured it. He was only waiting for Princess Xi Er to speak.

Princess Xi’er looked at Su Jinyue for a long time before slowly saying, “The actions just now were all forced by the Empress, and not my intention.” Princess Xi’er’s voice was so clear and soothing that those who heard it would feel comfortable.

Hearing this, Su Jinyue couldn’t help but be surprised. According to what Mo Li had said, Princess Xi’er should hate Mo Li the same as the empress, right?

“Back then, father committed a great sin that caused his entire family to be beheaded. Mo Li pitied me and begged His Majesty to let me go. I was meant to live, to leave hope at home. But I didn’t expect the empress to tell me what had happened that year, in front of the spies in the palace. to imprison me here from now on. ”

A trace of coldness flashed across Princess Xi’er’s eyes.

When Su Jinyue heard this, she was slightly surprised.

After that, he heard Princess Xi’er sneer, “It’s a pity that the Queen doesn’t know that I already knew about those things from the very beginning. In fact, the fact that her father had rebelled against her was basically being used by the empress! If it were not for the Queen, my family would not have been separated by Yin and Yang! ”

The one who wants to rebel is the empress? Su Jinyue really didn’t understand. The empress had already adopted the role of mother to the world, did she still want to be the empress?

“The empress wanted to imprison me in the palace, and I also wanted revenge. That was why I decided to play it by ear and pretended to hate Mo Li the same as she did.” Princess Xi’er’s voice was slightly hoarse.

Hearing this, Su Jinyue raised her brows slightly, “So, why is the princess telling me all of this?”

Princess Xi’er was asked by Su Jinyue. Then, he narrowed his eyes and explained, “I am under surveillance. Every time I meet with Mo Li, I cannot tell him the truth. Now that Mo Li isn’t around and the spies have left with Mo Li, I have a chance to tell him the truth. Can you help me tell Mo Li about this? ”

Princess Xi’er looked at Su Jinyue expectantly.

Su Jinyue thought to herself. She knew that nothing good would happen. Thinking of this, Su Jinyue sighed and looked at Princess Xi’er, “My apologies Princess, I cannot agree to your request.”

“Why?” Princess Xi’er looked at Su Jinyue in disbelief. “As long as you tell Mo Li that we will succeed in toppling the empress in the future, Mo Li will be grateful to you and I will be grateful to you as well. Why did you reject us?”

“Princess, I don’t want to be involved in these grudges. Moreover, I can’t believe that what you say is true.” After Su Jinyue finished speaking, she bowed to Princess Xi’er and said, “Princess, please forgive me.”

Seeing how determined Su Jinyue was, Princess Xi’er’s face turned even paler. Looking at her, tears rolled down her face. She shook her head and said, “I’ve made things difficult for you.”

Princess Xi’er’s appearance moved Su Jinyue’s heart. I still couldn’t help but say, “Princess knows, the wall has ears. The real secret is only known to oneself when I am alone. ”

“Only I know?” Xi Er repeated Su Jinyue’s words to herself.

Su Jinyue nodded and continued, “Yes! There was only one person. Although I cannot help you pass these words on to the crown prince, but I can tell these words to him at a crucial moment. But… Not now. ”

Princess Xi Er’s face lit up when she heard this. She grabbed her hand and asked in a hurry, “Really?”

“Of course it’s true. The prerequisite is that … At that critical moment, the princess can prove that you really helped the crown prince. ” Su Jinyue looked at Princess Xi’er and said meaningfully.

She wasn’t an idiot, Princess Xi’er’s words had already been guessed at the moment she opened her mouth. Princess Xi’er was probably not on Mo Li’s side, nor was she on the Empress’ side.

Mo Li had killed her father with his own hands, regardless of whether he was willing or not. The queen has destroyed her freedom. Thus, she had no reason not to hate these two people.

She was afraid that Princess Xi’er had other plans in mind for her to pass on the message.

Therefore, she definitely couldn’t pass these words on to Mo Li. However, she couldn’t afford to offend Princess Xi’er, so this kind of decision was the best for her.

As for what happened afterwards? She would not be squashed by anyone soon, so she naturally would not be afraid of anyone. As she thought about it, a harmless smile appeared on Su Jinyue’s face.

He looked like an easy to deceive and kind old man.
