Peasant Princess and Hen-pecked Prince - C244
The emperor did not think that Mo Yichen would actually say something like that directly, and angrily smacked the book table, then grabbed something from the table and smashed it towards Mo Yichen. Luckily he was old and his aim was off, otherwise a big hole might have appeared on Mo Yichen’s forehead.
“Unfilial son, what do you mean? Could it be that you have forgotten about your marriage with the Princess of the River North Di Kingdom? What do you mean by that now? Was he trying to disrespect the imperial edict? If the people call you the King of War, then you will be able to be lawless and not take my words to heart. If you go against me like this, aren’t you afraid that I will reduce you to a commoner and throw you into the prison? ”
Mo Yichen’s face was cold, there was no change in his tone when he heard the emperor, as though what the emperor said had no meaning to him at all.
The emperor stared at Mo Yichen for a while, he had thought that Mo Yichen would beg for mercy because of what he had said, but he never expected that’s expression did not change.
“Impudent! It looks like you, as your son, really do not view me, your father, in your eyes. Since that’s the case, it’s best that you give up your throne.”
Hmph, with the position of Duke Chen, Princess North Di Kingdom, you naturally don’t need to marry anymore. ”
Mo Yichen really did not expect the Emperor to say such words, but Mo Yichen was not worried about the issue with his own throne, because to him, his own throne was useless. Originally, he had shouldered this throne, becoming the Battle King, for the sake of his Royal Father.
It could be said that his current position was not one where he could do as he wished, nor do as he wished, but rather, the people who pushed him to sit in this position.
Therefore, Wang Wei was not someone that could be removed just because the Emperor said so.
“Since Royal Father has decided, I shall obey.” Mo Yichen replied casually, with a relaxed expression on his face.
The emperor never thought that Mo Yichen would actually say that he didn’t want the throne, and didn’t want the throne.
Actually, the reason he said that just now was only to scare him.
After all, the imperial power was paramount, and his own royal power would absolutely not allow even the slightest provocation.
As long as he still wanted this throne, and wanted his current wealth, he had to listen to his arrangements. Marrying the princess of North Di Kingdom, was because the marriage between him and that princess was no longer as simple as just marrying one another, and the two nations had long ago become closer to each other. If their side broke the agreement, then what they would have to pay back was not only their reputation.
He also had his own plan, which was to let the princess become the Princess Chen, and also let the princess be a widow. After a long time had passed, the princess would definitely resent Mo Yichen, and if he had any grudges in his heart, then he would destroy Mo Yichen’s power from its most basic state, allowing him the chance to truly subtract his most powerful son.
Therefore, this was definitely not the time for him to step down from the throne.
Mo Yichen also knew what the Emperor was thinking, but if he could get rid of this throne so easily, it would be a good thing. If he had nothing to do, he could bring Wanqing on a tour of the mountains and rivers, finding the place with the densest Profound Qi s to cultivate.
“You, you actually dare to disregard the throne that this king has bestowed upon you. Do you still have a lack of filial piety in your eyes?”
The Emperor’s words caused the corner of Mo Yichen’s mouth to curl into a cold smile.
“Royal Father was clearly aware that I was suffering from a strange illness, yet he still allowed me to marry the princess of the Northern Enemy Kingdom.
Royal Father, this son has never wanted to target you, but if you can treat this son sincerely, this son will definitely be grateful, and will wholeheartedly share the worries of Royal Father.
But Royal Father, can you treat us sincerely? ”
The Emperor grunted coldly, yet he knew that he couldn’t push too hard now. “What exactly do you want?”
“This son has already said it earlier, that was something that Royal Father agreed upon at the beginning. Royal Father’s words are as good as gold, how could he go back on his word?”
“No, other than this, everything else is fine.
Princess North Di Kingdom must be the main wife of the Morning King. ”
Mo Yichen knew it was going to be like this, but he had already thought of a way.
“Since she’s the official wife of the Morning King, then let this son establish a precedent. This way, not only can they marry each other, the Royal Father will definitely keep his word.”
It could be said that Mo Yichen had found a way for the emperor to settle this. The emperor was helpless, he thought for a while, then turned to the steward beside him and said, “Pass down the order, the one that Duke Chen married three days ago would be Chen Wangping’s wife. Furthermore, three days later would be the auspicious day.
The next day, General Liang’s daughter, Liang Yuxin, entered the Prince Chen’s Mansion to be the secondary wife.
When the emperor had finished speaking, the head steward had already finished writing the imperial edict.
Mo Yichen had already known that this would be the result, but hearing the Emperor’s words now made his heart hurt.
After all, he was his own father, and he was also the king of a country. Why was he being so cruel to him?
With the matter at hand, Mo Yichen had nothing else to say, but before leaving, he wanted to ask the emperor, “Royal Father, about the matter of Liang Yuxin, and I do not believe that you do not know, do you want your son to lose face for the imperial family when you refer a woman like that to me, or do you want your son to lose all face?”
After Mo Yichen said these words of respect, he turned around and left.
Of course he knew what Mo Yichen meant by those words, but he did not regret it at all. He had more desire for power than anyone else, but there were some people who could not bear to part with the power in his hands.
After leaving the palace in the middle of the night, Mo Yichen did not disturb anyone. It was as if no one had noticed him when he had arrived.
Really in accordance with the phrase quietly to go quietly, without taking a cloud.
The Princess Li moved very quickly, and on the morning of the second day, she left for the Mysterious Green Temple. Coincidentally, the abbot was doing his morning lessons, and did not have the time to see anyone, so the Princess Li could only wait.
The Xuan Qing Temple was the largest temple in the capital. It was located on another mountain outside of the bustling and luxurious capital city. On the mountainside, luxurious buildings and flourishing fireworks could be seen everywhere, revealing the majesty and grandeur of Xuan Qing.
There were three main halls in the temple, and on top of the main hall in the middle was the biggest Buddha statue. Looking at it, one could estimate that it was at least three to four meters tall and two meters tall.
In the courtyard in front of the main hall, there was a rather large pond filled with clear water. The water in the pond was actually flowing; it could be seen that the Xuan Qing Temple was blessed with water that was able to build such a pond halfway up the mountain.
Occasionally, there would be birds singing happily in the sky above the courtyard. The song was melodious and pleasant to listen to.
At this moment, people were lining up in front of the temple’s gate. Everyone was still holding their numbers in their hands, and they were all very polite.
Princess Li was number one, and was currently waiting at number one.
“Empress, please let this old servant queue up. You can go rest in the carriage for a while.”
The Princess Li shook her head. “You have to make this wangfei’s request personally. This wangfei not only hopes to find a good date, but also wishes for the two children to be safe and happy in this life.”
The abbot of the Xuan Qing Temple had a certain level of ability. It was said that as long as he had given his life, as long as he had his blessing, his life would be peaceful and beautiful.
The abbot was doing morning lessons, so Princess Li could only wait.
While the Princess Li was waiting, Hua Jinyu had already found a person who looked almost similar to Wanqing.
Furthermore, the girl was currently pushing the boat, and right when Hua Jinyu was about to enter the water under the bridge, he saw that the girl was about to leave his line of sight, and quickly jumped onto the boat.
“I wonder what this lady’s name is. Are you interested in talking with me?”
The young lady was shocked when she saw the person on her boat suddenly appear. She almost hit the oar towards Hua Jinyu.
Hearing her words, he couldn’t help but slightly lower his hand, but his voice was still cold, “Who are you? What are you trying to do on my ship? ”
“Miss, don’t speak to me in such a cold voice. I don’t have any ill intentions, but seeing that you look similar to my future sister-in-law, I’ve come to chat with you.”
Hua Jinyu had already decided to bring this woman back to his big brother’s side to comfort his big brother.
The woman’s name was Mei Lin, and she was a local born beauty from a Jiangnan fisherman. She was 18 years old this year, and was about to help her father sell this boat of fish.
Mei Lin looked at Hua Jinyu’s sincere face and then looked at his clothes. He was obviously not from Jiangnan, why did he say that she looked like his sister-in-law? What kind of logic was this?
“Who the hell are you? If you have something to say, then hurry up and say it, don’t block me from doing business. ”
Although Meilin was beautiful, she had a bad temper. If someone wanted to get some benefits from her, they could simply peel off a layer of skin.
When Hua Jinyu heard this girl speak so aggressively, his heart skipped a beat. He knew that this girl’s temper was definitely not good.
However, it didn’t matter if she had a bad temper. He had plenty of ways to change her.
Without saying a word, the Profound Qi in his hand moved towards Meilin. Meilin was suddenly stunned, her bright eyes suddenly glazed over, no longer agile like before.
Hua Jinyu thought about Wanqing’s appearance and then slowly channeled some of the energy flowing from his hands into Mei Lin’s body, causing her to slowly turn into Wanqing.
Now, Meilin only felt that there were a lot of things in her mind that didn’t belong to her. There was also a power that wanted to turn her completely into someone else that she couldn’t resist at all.
More and more blurry feelings, more and more unreal. In the blink of an eye, Meilin felt that she was no longer herself, but a different person. Her real self was completely sealed away, and the current her was no longer herself.
The expression on his face slowly changed into the same one that Hua Jinyu wanted, and adding the sixty to seventy percent similar face, Hua Jinyu really felt like he saw Wanqing.
“Young master.” Mei Lin said to Hua Jinyu with an ice-cold arrogance in her voice, but her eyes were filled with absolute loyalty to Hua Jinyu.
“From now on, you only have one mission, and that is to bring my big brother’s heart back to normal. As for you, after completing your mission, you might be my sister-in-law.”
“Yes, young master.” Meilin spoke up again, but it was not what she wanted to say, and she couldn’t help it.
“…”
