nChapter 46 – Night Dinner 102
nWhen the few of them arrived outside Prince Jing’s Manor’s door, Mo Youyou looked at the luxurious carriage before him and jumped in without hesitation and sat down quietly.
nVery quickly, Helian Yi also got on the carriage, and the two sat facing each other with their thoughts. Along the way, Mo Youyou would always steal a glance at Helian Yi. Seeing that he was constantly resting with his eyes closed and a cold expression, Mo Youyou instantly heaved a sigh of relief.
nIf his eyes met hers all the way to Imperial Palace, that would truly be a bit awkward. Fortunately, things were not as bad as she had imagined.
n
n
nThe sky had already begun to darken, and in the various corridors on both sides of Ming You Kingdom, rows and rows of Night Pearls illuminated the entire Imperial Palace as bright as day.
nThis time’s Imperial Palace’s Evening Banquet was being held in the Heaven and Earth Palace.
nInside Qian Kun Hall, the maids and guards were busy with their own matters in an orderly fashion.
nThe envoys from the other countries who had come to attend the dinner were also present.
nGeneral Mo’s Residence’s two young misses, Mo Li and Mo Yan had long since followed their father, Mo Sheng, into the palace. At the moment, the two of them were sitting in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden, carefully observing the woman sitting opposite of them.
n
n
nOutside the pavilion, four maidservants were guarding the side with lanterns in hand. Mo Yan and Mo Li’s maidservants were standing not far away from them.
nIn front of Mo Li, was Helian Yao’er. She was wearing a goose yellow long skirt and a light pink veil. Her delicate nose split her palm-sized face into two, and a pair of bright fox eyes held a faint smile, making her entire face look particularly alluring.
nHer cherry pink lips slightly raised, her eyebrows raised, seeing that Mo’s Residence and Mo’s Residence were about to speak, but stopped, she raised her eyes, a strange light flashing past in an instant. Her voice was clear and melodious, yet carried a sense of arrogance, and she asked: “Mo Li, Mo Yan, you two sisters have something to say, please speak frankly. The night banquet is about to begin, and I still have to prepare gifts for royal father and mother in a while, so I cannot sit here with you two for too long. ”
nMo Yan glanced at Mo Li, seeing that she did not have any intention to say anything, she spoke to Helian Yao’er first:
n
n
n“Princess, my sister and I have come for nothing. It’s just that today, I heard my servant say that Tong Li Kingdom’s Crown Prince’s meeting with a woman this morning was “fleeting.” My sister and I really like the princess, so we came to inform the princess so that we wouldn’t see the wrong person in the future. ”
nAfter Helian Yao’er heard this, he stared at the two of them in suspicion. The marriage between her and Xiao Zhai was originally a matter of mutual benefits.
nWho was he with and what did it have to do with her? However, when it came out from the mouths of these two sisters, it was as if they were completely ignored by Xiao Zhai, and couldn’t enter his eyes at all.
nAlthough she admired her second brother, Helian Yi, she could only silently hide that love deep within her heart. In the future, she would eventually marry into the Tong Li Kingdom as Xiao Zhai’s concubine, and the relationship between her and her second royal brother would only be that of siblings.
nThinking about that, Helian Yao’er asked curiously: “Did your servant clearly see the lady’s appearance?”
nMo Yan was startled for a moment, then said to Xiao Cui who was standing nearby:
n“Xiao Cui, tell the princess everything that you see! There must not be any concealment. ”
n
n
nXiao Cui dropped to her knees and replied timidly, “Yes, yes, Miss. Today, this servant went out to buy rouge for the Young Miss, and just as I passed by the ‘flower in the blink of an eye’, I met the Ninth Miss. ”
nHelian Yao’er interrupted Xiao Cui, “What does this have to do with Xiao Zhai? I don’t want to hear any of this nonsense! ”
nXiao Cui immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy, continuing, “Your Highness, this servant felt that it was strange, and followed Ninth Miss into the restaurant, only to see Ninth Miss and Tong Li Kingdom happily drinking together, then, later on ….”
n“Speak!”
n“Later on, this servant saw Ninth Miss sitting on Tong Li Kingdom’s lap …”
nBefore his voice fell, Helian Yao’er shouted angrily: “How dare you!”
nXiao Cui was so scared that she kept on kowtowing and admitting her wrongs, saying, “Princess, spare me, Princess, please spare me, it is this servant’s fault, this servant should not have followed Ninth Miss in, much less seen her meeting with Crown Prince in private …”
n“Someone come!” Drag this lowly slave down, and Reward 20! ”
nVery quickly, two maidservants came and dragged Xiao Cui down. Mo Yan originally wanted to plead for Xiao Cui, but when she received Mo Li’s gaze, she could only sit down quietly.
nHearing Xiao Cui’s pleas for help, Mo Yan said in her heart, “Xiao Cui, you can bear with it for now. Once you return to the General’s Estate, I will make it up to you. Tonight, I must definitely not let Mo Youyou leave the Imperial Palace alive. ”
nHelian Yao’er looked coldly at Mo Li and Mo Yan. These two sisters had obviously wanted to borrow her hand and get rid of their sister Mo Youyou. It was not like she didn’t know about the little matter between Mo Yan and her royal brother Helian Yu.
n
n
nShe also remembered very clearly that Mo Youyou had always admired her royal brother, Helian Yu. In order to marry his royal brother, he even dragged General Mo into the Imperial Palace.
nNow, why would she suddenly entangle Xiao Zhai? Unable to think of a reason, Helian Yao’er stared fixedly at the teacup on the table. This kind of thing, without the wind, there is no waves. Since the waves have come, then we will kill it in the cradle!
nIf she dared to touch Helian Yao’er’s man, she definitely would not allow her to live in this world!
nClutching the silk handkerchief tightly in his hand, Helian Yao’er reminded them, “Let’s stop this matter here. Alright, I still have something important to do, please forgive me for not accompanying you.”
nSeeing Helian Yao’er leave with a face filled with anger, Mo Yan glanced at Mo Li suspiciously, and asked softly, “Elder sister, what does the princess mean by this?”
nMo Li stared at the direction where Helian Yao’er left with his deep eyes, and laughed sinisterly: “Helian Yao’er is not an easy target. The reason she said no more is only because of our words, which hurt her pride, making her lose face.
nThink about it, a man of the dignified Ming You Kingdom Princess, was snatched away by a useless trash like her. Where would she put her dignity as a princess? Moreover, these words came from Xiao Cui’s mouth. Say, if it was you, would you be able to take it lying down? ”
n“What does elder sister mean?”
nMo Li smiled, and revealed a strange smile, “Let’s just wait and see for ourselves!”
nWhen Helian Yi brought Mo Youyou to the Qian Kun Hall, all of the guests had already taken their seats.
nEveryone’s eyes were filled with amazement when they saw the newcomer. Even Yelv Zhuo, who had just sat down with Luo Rong, was stupefied by what he saw.
nThe two of them were a perfect match! The man wore a blue embroidered robe. His face was pale and cold, without a single trace of emotion. However, his body exuded an aura of an Emperor, which no one dared to ignore.
nThe woman wore snow-white clothes and had a strange bun on her head. Her peerless appearance made her look even more enchanting. Her exquisite and graceful figure was even more enchanting under the decorations of her belt. A pair of talking eyes were always carrying a gentle smile, like a fairy from the heavens, unreachable.
nMo Youyou followed closely behind Helian Yi, his large round eyes swept across the crowd, and thought: “What’s going on? Why are you all staring at me? ”
nHelian Yi coldly glared at them, and all the officials who dared to stare at Mo Youyou immediately retracted their greedy gazes. But his friends still stared at Mo Youyou.
nHe brought Mo Youyou to the seat closest to the Dragon Throne and sat down, reminding her not to look around. Seeing that, Mo Youyou immediately retracted his gaze and followed closely behind.
