However, Mo Lan thought about it again and realized that Mo Xi had not done too much in this matter. Compared with the eldest and second mothers doing such unethical things, they should be taught a lesson.
"Xi'er, you also know that Er Niang is not as wealthy as the eldest lady. You can set a price. As long as Er Niang can get it, there will be no ambiguity." Qin Ruotao gritted her teeth, with a look of risk-taking, as long as her daughter can be given.
When her illness got better, she accepted it.
Mo Xi, who was lying on the hammock, suddenly opened his eyes, a cunning look flashed in his eyes, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Then it's easy, just follow the old rules, just like the eldest lady, hand over all your
Private money is enough.”
"All the private money?" Qin Ruotao's eyes widened suddenly. She didn't expect that Mo Xi had a big appetite. But what she didn't believe was that the eldest lady would give all the private money to Mo Xi? This
It's just a fool's dream. You must know that the eldest lady is a woman who regards wealth as her life.
"It's up to you whether you agree or not. Go back and think about it. Don't stand here and get in the way. I'm sleepy." Mo Xi yawned lazily and pretended to close his eyes to rest.
"No, no, no, I just promise you..." Qin Ruotao said in a panic, carefully testing: "Then... when are you going to check on Yun Shi's condition?"
"Of course we are going now. Is it possible that Miss Ben is still waiting for you to go back to Zhu Yu Pavilion to transfer the money and then collect the money?" Mo Xi's cold voice was full of teasing, and then his eyes fell not far away.
On Hong Ling: "Hong Ling, what are you doing here, girl? Follow me to Zhu Yu Pavilion to collect cash..."
"Yes... yes, miss." Hong Ling was happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to laugh out loud. She suppressed the joy in her heart and followed Mo Xi, trotting out of the yard.
Looking at her sister's back, Mo Lan's clear eyes gradually blurred. She could not understand her sister more and more, but one thing she could be sure of was that her sister was not a soft persimmon who could be manipulated by others. I believe that even if
Even though Heqin was married to Dongli Kingdom, she was able to protect herself very well and would not be easily bullied.
If this is really what she thinks, then shouldn't she feel relieved...
There was no delay in getting married. The next day, Mo Xi entered the palace according to the order. The emperor, not wanting to be polite, specially arranged a grand ceremony for the conferment of the emperor. Mo Xi would then marry from the Nan Cang Kingdom to the Dong Li Kingdom with the etiquette of a princess.
This was Mo Xi's first time entering the palace. He had to fully appreciate the luxurious style of the palace. Along the way, the scenery was beautiful and pleasant. Among the green trees and clouds, there were countless buildings in Qiongtai, which were majestic but not magical.
It's so relaxing and refreshing.
Unexpectedly, the old emperor specially prepared a palace for Mo Xi, called Anle Palace. Although it was just a decoration, it still looked decent and magnificent, and he was quite happy to see her, a folk princess.
However, Mo Xi knew in his heart that Emperor Nan Cang was spending a small amount of money to make big deals, and wanted to use her as a chess piece to get married to a powerful country like Dongli.
Looking at the wooden boxes piled up all over the house, they were all carved from fine agarwood and trimmed with gold. They looked very gorgeous. They were all the dowry given to her by Emperor Nan Cang. This...
…It’s too exaggerated!
Hong Ling couldn't help it anymore, so she cautiously and tentatively opened one of the boxes and took a look. It contained various kinds of silks and satins. Mo Xi on the side couldn't help but rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice: "
Are these tattered fabrics worthy of a dowry?! I didn’t expect the emperor to be so petty and petty, and not afraid of being laughed at by Dongli Kingdom.”
"Who is saying bad things about me behind my back? How could I be stingy with my adopted daughter..." A deep and mellow voice came from behind, with a bit of a smile.
The two of them looked back, and Hong Ling was so frightened that she knelt down with a bang: "I'm here to see you, Your Majesty."
Mo Xi's face was indifferent, he bowed slightly and saluted, and said in a clear and gentle voice: "My lord, please see your Majesty."
"You still call me your emperor? Xi'er, now you are Princess Anle of Nan Cang Kingdom, my adopted daughter..." Nangong Xiao had a gentle smile on his face, as if he didn't mind Mo Xi's rude remarks behind his back.
Mo Xi smiled and said calmly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for showing me your love. My daughter deserves it."
"Oh?! Why are you so ashamed?" Nangong Xiao's eyes flashed with interest, and he asked Mo Xi thoughtfully.
"There is no reward for no merit. I got the title of princess for free and received such a house of dowry. Naturally, I deserve it." Mo Xi responded calmly with a calm face.
Nangong Xiao nodded with satisfaction, the smile on his face gradually faded, and his expression became serious: "I didn't expect that Prime Minister Mo's five thousand gold would be so smart. It is really different from the rumors I heard before..."
Mo Xi smiled and said nothing. She knew without asking that the world only knew that the fifth lady of Prime Minister Mo's family was a nymphomaniac who would drool when she saw a man. But now it seems that this is not the case.
"You all...retreat." Nangong Xiao glanced at Eunuch An behind him lightly, and at the same time, his eyes swept over Hong Ling.
Eunuch An immediately waved his hand knowingly, signaling the palace servants and maids to retreat. When Hong Ling came into contact with the emperor's eyes, she was half frightened. At this time, she quickly retreated, and at the same time, she did not want to give up.
The master gave him a helpless look.
Mo Xi's face was still pale and calm as before. The expression on Emperor Nan Cang's face at this moment made her involuntarily remember a person, a person she was about to forget, that was her master in modern times, who was Black Panther.
Father.
She saw the ambition and the desire for power in Nangong Xiao's eyes, and she... seemed to be his pawn on the road to that. This feeling made Mo Xi inexplicably disgusted. She hated that kind of being
The feeling of being in control makes her yearn for freedom.
"Do you know what I want to say to you? I'll let you guess first -" Nangong Xiao spoke in a low voice, with a hint of laughter in his voice, but Mo Xi could tell that it was not a smile from the bottom of his heart.
.
"Your Majesty, do you want to hear the truth?" Mo Xiyun looked at Nangong Xiao calmly, and seeing his eyes nodding with determination, he continued: "Your Majesty wants to... place one of your own in Dongli Kingdom.
"
There was a flash of appreciation in Nangong Xiao's eyes, and he could tell that Mo Xi's answer satisfied him. If a woman as smart as her could be used by him, she would become a great asset.
