At this time, Crown Prince Mo Junyu stood out in time and replied in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, although Right Director of the Ministry of War Yan Liang is a general, he has never been to the northwest. Therefore, I reckon that Left Director Yue Quan is more qualified for this position."

Mo Xiangbin nodded with satisfaction, and did not give Qin s.h.i.+rong time to refute, and decided at once, "That being the case, according to Crown Prince, Yue Quan is appointed to transfer the food. a.s.sistant Minister of the Ministry of War Leng Yuan is in charge of the transference this time. If there's any trouble, report to me straightforwardly."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Mo Junyu did not expect that this would be so easy to settle, and he couldn't help but look at Mo Junyang in surprise. Mo Xiangbin unexpectedly didn't accept Left Prime Minister's recommendation, but took his proposal instead?

Miracle!

Mo Junyang didn't even look at him. He stood calmly on his position, looking down and whispering, and waited for this conference to end.

Mo Junyu was even more curious!

It was Mo Junyang who had given him a sign, so that he could stand out and give his advice in time. He didn't believe that Mo Junyang knew nothing about this.

When the conference was over, the Crown Prince finally couldn't bear his curiosity, and found a secret restaurant to meet with Mo Junyang, "Tell me! What method did you use to make my father ignore Left Prime Minister's recommendation in front of so many officials? That was too unusual!"

It should be mentioned that Left Prime Minister was Mo Xiangbin's favorite official, and his status in the court was only below the Emperor. Usually, all of his suggestions were accepted by Mo Xiangbin.

But today, Mo Xiangbin just named his daughter as the Concubine of Fourth Prince, but instead he showed Qin s.h.i.+rong no respect at all, as if he was criticizing him.

Mo Junyu felt it strange as he thought about it, he had to ask Mo Junyang at last.

Mo Junyang slowly raised the tea cup and took a sip before he said indifferently, "Yesterday, the Emperor heard that Concubine Liu went to Peach Blossom Forest to admire the blossoms, and thought of his first meet with Concubine Liu. So he also went there. And he happened to see Fourth Prince and Fifth Lady of the Qin Family meeting secretly, then he pa.s.singly permitted their marriage."

Mo Junyu, "..."

He knew that Mo Junyang asked someone to send the cloak to Qin Yanyan yesterday, and later he also asked someone to find Mo Xiangbin. But he didn't find these two things relative at all then!

After a moment of speechlessness, Mo Junyu finally sighed, "Yang, I really admire you! You are so intelligent. Every decision of yours is closely linked to another. Who can escape?"

With Mo Junyang's low-key and quiet personality, he supposed that the group of people still didn't know how they stepped in the trap!

"However, make Mo Junhao marry Qin Yanyan..." Mo Junyu groaned for a moment, "Don't we completely push Left Prime Minister to their party? This cost is somewhat large."

Mo Junyang sneered and asked, "Why? Do you think that Qin s.h.i.+rong would choose you if Mo Junhao doesn't marry Qin Yanyan? He's always sitting on the fence. You will kick him out even if such a person is in your party. Now he's sent to Mo Junhao's party. We should just watch what's gonna happen!"

Mo Junyu suddenly understood. He hadn't considered this before, and couldn't help but laugh, "You are really... But Fifth Lady of the Qin Family only gets the position of Concubine. Although many consorts from the n.o.ble families all start from concubine, my father obviously doesn't mean this now."

He smiled a little indifferently, "To whom does he leave this position of Concubine? I think you have guessed it out."

"So what?"

Mo Junyu found the person he was teasing indifferent, and stimulated him again, "Sixth Lady of the s.h.i.+ Family is already fifteen years old. Grandma even started to be concerned about her marriage before, and Empress Liang and Concubine Liu both begged grandmother... Well, you really have a lot of compet.i.tors!"

Mo Junyang slightly looked up, and his expression was cold, "Yes, why don't you say that you are also included? Doesn't Empress Dowager think that you also match her?"

Mo Junyu, "..."

Looking at Mo Junyang's seemingly indifferent smile, he suddenly trembled as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his body became frozen.

It was terribly cold!

Mo Junyu trembled and shook off his gooseb.u.mps. He hurriedly explained, "No. Grandma thought that my force was weak and wanted to win over the s.h.i.+ Family for me. I never want to marry s.h.i.+ Qingxue!"

If he was hated by Mo Junyang because of this misunderstanding, it would be his disaster.

He smiled flatteringly, "Speaking of this, we are a group. You marry Qingxue, and the effect is also the same! Because you rarely showed up in front of grandmother in normal days, she wasn't reminded of you for the time being then."

"So, is it my fault?" Mo Junyang showed a bright smile, which looked very beautiful.

But Mo Junyu felt even colder. He waved his hand and looked awkward, "Fine, my goodness! Can you stop laughing so horribly? You are scaring me to death!"

Crown Prince was so frightened that he forgot to use his respectful appellation of himself.

Mo Junyang then took back his smile and said coldly, "You're right about one thing."

"What?"

"I really shouldn't be so silent." Mo Junyang smiled again and looked gentle, "I don't want to scare her, but she is much stronger than I have thought, then I won't allow her to hide from me anymore."

His eyes looked murky and dangerous, "Some debts, it's time to ask her to repay."

Mo Junyu shuddered, he was silently anxious with s.h.i.+ Qingxue.

In the past, he still didn't understand what was so good with Sixth Lady of the s.h.i.+ Family that Mo Junyang was so obsessed with her. But at present, he had stronger feeling that s.h.i.+ Qingxue was unfortunate that the psychopath Mo Junyang was fond of her!

On November 15th, 41st year of the Mo Dynasty, Third Princess of the Mo Country, Mo Yuzhen, married She Changfeng, the son of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

King Wen of the Mo Dynasty was overjoyed and specially set a banquet in the house of Princess's Husband, and invited the officials in capital city to the banquet.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was Mo Yuzhen's best friend, so she was forcefully brought to the palace by Mo Yuzhen several days before the wedding. She had the intention to make s.h.i.+ Qingxue accompany her in the whole process of wedding.

Although it was not proper according to the rules, the elders acquiesced, so s.h.i.+ Qingxue didn't bother to care about it. She followed Mo Yuzhen like a small tail.

"Qingxue, do you think that I should make up to be more dignified or lovely? Do you think my husband would be fascinated by me? Well, he saw me last time and I almost beat him with a whip. Won't he feel that I am barbarous?" Mo Yuzhen kept questioning. She was sometimes worried but sometimes also rejoiced. There were so many questions poured to s.h.i.+ Qingxue's ears.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was tortured by these words all night, struggling to open her eyes to see the hourgla.s.s.

G.o.d! It was already 12 o'clock at night!

She sighed helplessly, "Yuzhen, aren't you tired? Tomorrow you will get dressed up at 5 o'clock and go to the wedding sedan at 8 o'clock in the morning."

Mo Yuzhen then stopped and glanced at the hourgla.s.s, and said disappointingly, "Time flies so fast! I thought it was still evening!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue rolled her eyes silently and thought, "You had been thinking about this all night, and left poor us being busy with your wedding as companies. You surely felt that time went so fast!"

Mo Yuzhen quickly laughed, "You are bothered to keep busy with it! Qingxue, you're the best!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue glanced at her and asked straightforwardly, "So, what else do you want to say?"

"Aha, you surely understand me!" Mo Yuzhen was not embarra.s.sed at all because her thought was figured out, she scratched her head, "I want to ask one last question."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue waited for Mo Yuzhen's following words quietly.

But she didn't expect that Mo Yuzhen's high-pitched voice suddenly dropped and she hesitated for a while, then she whispered, "Qingxue, do you think my husband will like me?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was shocked for a moment, and felt surprised in her heart.

She did not expect that Mo Yuzhen, who had always been full of self-confidence, would worry about this. Seeing the smile and shyness on the delicate small face with inexplicable expectation, she took back the words that had just reached her lips.

At this moment, Mo Yuzhen absolutely didn't want to hear s.h.i.+ Qingxue's answer like that how much She Changfeng matched her, or that they had been engaged and She Changfeng would like her no matter what.

Qingxue tilted her head and thought, sitting upright, and said seriously, "Yuzhen, since you have been certain with Mr. She's character, and you are fond of him, you shouldn't doubt whether he likes you or not!

With your ability, aren't you confident to catch your own husband's heart? The Princess Yuzhen I know isn't such a person with no confidence!"

Seeing that Mo Yuzhen was stunned by her words, she calmed down and chuckled, "You can rest a.s.sured! You are so great, and Mr. She will definitely love you!"

Moreover, with the principled character, he definitely wouldn't be tempted by other women!

But Mo Yuzhen suddenly rolled her eyes on Qingxue, not noticing the key point, and snorted, "Who says that I like She Changfeng? Don't talk nonsense. It is the blessing of their family that I marry him!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue, "..."

She had never seen such a person whose face changed so fast.

"Okay! Our Yuzhen is the best! You have asked the last question, can we go to sleep?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue yawned slightly, and waved her hand at Mo Yuzhen. She really didn't have the energy to talk about this.

She knew that she wouldn't be much easier than the bride tomorrow.

Mo Yuzhen grabbed her again, requiring in a low voice, "Qingxue, I'm sure I won't fall asleep if I sleep alone tonight. You come sleep with me!"

"Okay, let's go to sleep!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue's eye could hardly be opened, and she lifted the quilt and covered Mo Yuzhen, then she followed to the bed and slept.

Mo Yuzhen was the princess most favored in the palace of the Mo Dynasty. Her dowry could be described as ten miles of fortune, especially that Mo Xiangbin specially built a house for the couple. It was obvious how favored she was.

The custom of the Mo Dynasty was that an unmarried girl couldn't enter the husband's house with bride unless she was also brought with the bride, so s.h.i.+ Qingxue stopped when she sent Mo Yuzhen to the house.

Seeing that the gold and silver boxes were lifted into the house, s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't help thinking that when she had married Fourth Prince, was it the same?

There were smiles on everyone's face, but how many people's smiles were really from the bottom of their hearts? And how many people truly blessed her?

These guests with all sorts of bad characters made her annoyed and upset.

"What are you thinking?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue was obsessed with her thoughts, and suddenly a deep male voice sounded in her ear, startling her.

She looked back hurriedly, while he kept the posture of bending down and lowering his head. And the two mouths touched straightforwardly.

The soft and hot touch came, s.h.i.+ Qingxue felt that Mo Junyang's face was infinitely enlarged in front of herself, and when she looked at the pair of dark black eyes like a pond, she seemed to have fallen into the starlight.

For the first time, she stared so closely into Mo Junyang's eyes that she didn't respond for a while.

It was really an accident!

But it was an unexpected delight for Mo Junyang.

He didn't move, even slowed down his breath for fear that he would scare s.h.i.+ Qingxue, he only quietly absorbing the familiar aroma.

The breath of the two was entwined, so charming and seductive.
