I can see that you're simply jealous of my unparalleled beauty and desire to possess me. That's why you dare not let me stay by her side, you're afraid she'll fall in love with me because of my face!”...The speaker was Liu Jinping, the current prime minister. His face was flushed with anger because he belonged to Mo Yunren's faction. His eldest daughter was married to Mo Yunren as his queen. If Mo Yunren ascended the throne in the future, his eldest daughter would become empress.
With the support he had, Mo Yunren was the most likely candidate to become the next Emperor. However, overnight, Mo Yunren lost an arm and a leg, which means he is no longer qualified to be Emperor.
In this situation, how could Liu Jiping not be angry Not furious
He had spent most of his life planning, and now it all seemed to be going down the drain. How could he possibly accept that
Zhou You's face darkened, "Minister Liu, you should back up your words with evidence."
"You..."
"That's enough." The emperor interrupted Liu Jinping, his gaze cold on Zhou You. "Continue speaking."
If you can't explain yourself, Zhou You's life is over.
Zhou You knew the dangers involved, but he still voiced his suspicions.
He told the emperor that if they went to cut off the eldest prince's legs at this time, it would mean going to war with the Fifth Prince completely.
But don't overlook the fact that he had someone chop off the eldest prince's arm, and now the Fifth Prince can have the Second Prince's arm and leg chopped off. This is pure retaliation twofold.
If we continue to fight the Fifth Prince now and chop off the Crown Prince's leg, the Fifth Prince will definitely not retaliate next time!
Then, who will the Fifth Prince target this time Who knows
Who can be sure they are not the emperor
This emperor is just a coward. He already had this idea in mind, and now Zhou You proactively brought it up, he naturally wouldn't impulsively have someone chop off Mo Yunchen's legs.
After all, the Imperial Guard has yet to find out who could stealthily enter the palace undetected.
In such a situation, an emperor who values his life would not dare to gamble with it.
He pretended to be furious and insistent on making the Crown Prince pay, but it was all just a show for these ministers.
By doing this, Zhou You actually paved the way for him to step down gracefully.
His sullen face turned towards Zhou You, "What do you think, Zhou Aiqing, I should do now Should I just let that rebellious son go unpunished"
Zhou You arched his hands, "Your Majesty, with the war in Beijang now raging, Fifth Prince must go to battle if we are to hold onto Beijang City. Your Majesty, why not follow Fifth Prince's lead first Act according to his requests. Once he defeats the enemy, your Majesty can then issue an edict recalling him. When he returns to the capital, wouldn't it be simpler for Your Majesty to punish him as you see fit"
The emperor, after a moment's silence, ultimately heeded Zhou You's advice.
And, news from the Northern Border Warfront arrived: the enemy army was advancing. Sending him to punish Mo Yunjing at this time wouldn't be appropriate.
Mo Yunjing has already put forward his conditions and allowed the Crown Prince to return to his mansion.
Otherwise, the Northern border war would cause him to act recklessly. As for what kind of recklessness that might be, no one knew, and the Emperor dared not gamble.
After all, Mo Yunjing now is someone he truly doesn't understand.
The prince was quickly released back to his residence, but the emperor was not about to let him off so easily. Although he was allowed to go free, he was under stricter surveillance than he had been in prison.
So, Yun San, Yun Si, and Jiang Qingyang wanted to save Mo Yunchen but had no way to do it.
The Emperor sent over 10,000 Imperial Guards to guard the residence of the Crown Prince both inside and out; they couldn't get in at all.
After the news that Mo Yunchen was returned to the former Crown Prince's Mansion reached Beijiang, both Mo Yunjing and Mo Junyi breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, the prince hadn't suffered in prison before. Saving him just needs careful planning.
That day, An Xuetang gave Mo Yunjing a pill to promote detoxification.
Because she didn't know if the medicine had any side effects, she wouldn't let him leave her sight after he took it.
"Tangtang, are you bored Want me to go for a walk with you"
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "No, today Jing can't go out. He has to stay in the room."
Don't think she doesn't know he's going to talk business with Yunyi and the others.
Mo Yunjing smiled, "Then I'll draw a portrait of Tangtang"
"Ah, Jinghui"
"Well, I will," Mo Yunjing smiled, then had someone bring in some ink and brushes.
An Xuetang was a little excited, she really wanted to know what her Ah Jing would paint her as.
She proactively took the pen and ink over, setting them up for him, then smiled and looked at him, "Ah Jing, are you going to paint now"
"Hmm."
An Xuetang suddenly stood straight, "Then what would Jing want to paint Would I need to take all my clothes off"
"... "
Mo Yunjing's ears flushed slightly, obviously not expecting her to ask such a question. He cleared his throat and spoke in a serious tone, "If Tangtang wants to, it's not impossible."
An Xuetang's eyebrows raised slightly, wasn't it just painting a person's 'ke' body She wasn't afraid.
For her meager figure… she was still unafraid.
An Xuetang immediately wanted to take off her clothes, Mo Yunjing's dark and deep pupils narrowed slightly.
Apparently she actually means it
He chuckled, then walked over to her side and took her hand. "Don't worry, Sugar. Let me give you a facial today. As for..."
Speaking of which, Mo Yunjing looked down at her skinny frame and stifled a smile, "As for the rest, why don't we continue when Tangtang is ready"
"……"
"An Xuetang glared at him immediately, displeasure evident in her tone. "Mo Yunjing, what is that look on your face Do you think you can find a better body than mine"
Although "perfect" sounds a bit shameless, he's her husband. Even if her figure is... trashy, he has to compliment her.
Mò Yún Jǐng chuckled, reaching out to pinch her little cheek, "Yes yes, my little sugar is the most perfect."
An Xuetang was in a good mood immediately. Although what he said sounded a bit fake... but she liked it anyway.
The two of them were cuddling in the room for a while when Mo Junyi suddenly barged in.
It was quite a coincidence that the moment he walked in, he saw An Xuetang pouting and demanding a kiss from Mo Yunjing.
Mo Junyi immediately covered his eyes and muttered, "It is improper to look without permission, it is improper to look without permission."
Mo Yunjing glanced at him nonchalantly, then gently kissed An Xue Tang's lips.
An Xue Tang didn't know when she had developed such a thick skin, now she wasn't afraid at all to be seen by Mo Jun Yi.
She cleared her throat, "Zilin, why did you suddenly come over Did you finish your practice for today!"
Over the past two days, An Xuetang personally taught Mo Junyi some fighting techniques, including a move that could kill.
He trained very diligently and hardly had any time to come and see her.
Mo Junyi stealthily took his hands away, seeing that the two of them were no longer whispering sweet nothings before he finally completely withdrew his hands. He said unhappily, "Mother, in broad daylight, can you please be more mindful of the influence"
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "That's not right. My husband and I are in love and we don't break the law."
“......”
Mo Junyi was choked by her words, his face flushed slightly. "Then... then I'm still a child, aren't you afraid that I'll be harmed mentally and physically after seeing it!"
At this moment, Mo Yunjing raised his eyes to look at him, then slowly said, "You can blind yourself, so you won't be able to see."
"!"
An Xuetang chuckled, as straightforward and blunt as her family Ah Jing!
Mo Junyi snorted and then spoke disdainfully, "Fifth Uncle, you're being defiant with me now I'll see how you explain this to Mother later."
"Hm" Mo Yunjing heard the subtext in his words and frowned, looking at him.
An Xuetang also raised an eyebrow and looked at Mo Junyi, "Ziling, what's going on Why did you rush over"
Mo Junyi's expression was unclear whether it was gloating or not. He snorted at Mo Yunjing before turning to An Xuetang and saying, "Mother, your trouble has arrived."rough him to see Mò Yún Jǐng. It was this gaze, the one Mò Yún Jǐng had always used when facing the emperor's difficulties.Right now, looking at him like this, for some reason he couldn't help but rai...
