Chapter 139
The Cold Prince Dotes On His Wild Wife
Thinking of this, Mo Sheng hurried forward to stop him, âLong, long, long, etc.â
âHmm? Father? â
âGo get Second Aunt!â Mo Sheng suddenly ordered coldly.
Li Rong felt a chill run down her spine and her entire body tensed up. It seemed that she couldnât avoid this attack!
At this moment, the flower orchids of the zither garden were restlessly pacing back and forth in the hall. Seeing that a servant girl was rushing over, she quickly asked.
âWhat happened? Why are you so flustered?â
The maidservant blessed herself and quickly replied, âSecond Aunt, the lord has ordered this servant to invite you to the front hall.â
âOld master, do you not know that I am not feeling well? Whereâs Third Aunt? Didnât she tell the master? â
It was Li Rongâs idea to pretend to be sick at the Zither Garden, so she thought that Li Rong had already arranged everything for her.
After the servant girl heard Flower Orchidâs words, she paused for a moment before replying.
âMaster knows, Third Madame also said, but Ninth Miss insisted on coming to the Qin Garden to see you. Master felt that this action was inappropriate, so he ordered his servant to come and invite you over.â
What was there to be afraid of? Flower Orchid Flower was afraid that Mo Xie would come looking for her to interrogate her about the Violet Bamboo Forest. Who would have thought that she would arrive so quickly.
She gripped the silk handkerchief in her hand tightly, hesitated for a while, then let out a long sigh of relief. What should come will eventually come, as long as she bites until her death and doesnât admit it, Mo Xie couldnât do anything to her, could he?
After making up her mind, Hua Lan tidied up her clothes and followed the maidservant to the hall.
After Mo Long finished his tea, he quietly sat to the side and waited for the flower orchids. Helian Yi had been silently accompanying her, today, there was going to be a good show to watch!
Glancing at Mo Sheng, Mo Sheng felt Helian Yiâs cold gaze sweeping over him. He shuddered and sat up straight, looking outside.
Finally, Hua Hua Lan hurried over. Li Rong sat on the chair rather nervously as cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
When Mo Long saw the newcomer, he immediately stood up and went forward to greet him. With one hand on Hua Lanâs arm, he asked in concern:
âSecond Madame, I heard from Third Madame that you werenât feeling well. How is it?â
Hua Lan wanted to retract her hand, but she was stopped by Mo Liao. She carefully wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with one hand and softly replied.
âAlright, I feel much better now â¦â
âCome, Second Aunt, come sit here.â As he said this, Mo Long led the flower orchid to Mo Shengâs side and sat him down. From the looks of it, it seemed like the flower orchid was Mo Shengâs main wife.
Before Hua Lan could even get close to the chair, she heard Li Rongâs cold snort. She suddenly stood up and looked towards Li Rong. Mo Li laughed with her mouth open.
âThird Madame isnât feeling well either?â
Li Rong replied with a smile, âNo, no.â Itâs just that my throat doesnât feel right. â
âMy throat isnât right, Iâm afraid Iâm on fire. I just happened to order someone to bring some pears today. I heard that these pears are a tribute from the Li Kingdomâs royal palace. They taste sweet and delicious, and most importantly, go on fire!â
Li Rong looked at Mo Xie uncomfortably, she did not answer nor did she answer, instead, Mo Long did not give her a chance to speak, and continued:
âThird Madame still needs to be careful. I heard that sheâs too impatient. Not only is it easy to get angry, itâs also easy to get incurable illnesses.â Look, Sister Four just left, and now, Second Sister ⦠â Mo Xie paused, then raised her voice a little bit.
âSecond sister has committed the crime of deceiving the monarch again and is now locked up in the prison of Jing King Manor. If anything happens to you, if Second Sister is released one day, wonât that mean that you wonât even be able to meet your own mother? â
Li Rong gritted her teeth as she stared at Mo Li, at that moment, she truly wanted to strangle Mo Li to death!
If it wasnât for this little bitch, how could her daughter have died? How could her Liâer be tortured by King Jing? All of this was caused by this little bitch!
Mo Long sensed Li Rongâs hostility, he glanced at her coldly, then spoke at a casual pace.
âOh, I forgot. Even if Third Madame did, Father and Second Aunt will as well.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As his voice fell, Mo Xie gave Hua Hua Lan a glance, âSecond Aunt has been serving father wholeheartedly for all these years at General Moâs estate. As the wife of General Moâs estate, itâs only right and proper.â
Everyone heard Mo Liâs words and looked up at her. Hua Lan was also shocked.
Shouldnât Mo Li ask her, or even seek revenge? Why does it sound like sheâs going to help me take the position of the Madam of the General Mo Estate?
Li Rongâs Lifesteal Hall was not to be underestimated. If she were to offend Li Rong, she might really become the wife of General Moâs Residence in the future.
Thinking of this, Hua Hua Lan hurriedly stood up and said to Mo Sheng timidly.
âChenqie dares not. âChenqie has never thought of being the wife of General Mo, please enlighten me, Old Master.â
âWhy is Second Aunt so modest?â I know that you have coveted the position of General Moâs wife for a very long time, but youâve always been angry because of Third Madame, so you didnât say anything. It was still impossible for the Generalâs Estate to not have a mistress. After all, his father was always outside fighting, so there was no time for him to care about matters of the mansion. Even though I am the direct descendant, I have already married and have become the mistress of the Jing King Manor. It is not my place to be in charge of General Moâs affairs. â
Li Rong stared at the flower orchid. Although she knew Mo Li was deliberately trying to sow discord between them, but seeing the flower orchid slowly turn silent, her heart could not calm down.
Amongst so many aunts in the Generalâs Estate, only Flower Orchid could compete with her for Madamâs position. Now, if Mo Long continued to fan the flames like this, Mo Sheng would naturally favor the flowers and orchids. Then, wouldnât it be a waste for her, Li Rong, to have worked so hard for so many years?
Just as he was lost in thought, Mo Long suddenly changed the topic, and asked with a cold voice.
âSecond Madame, I just donât understand why you didnât fight for such a good opportunity and instead sent people to chase after the Purple Bamboo Forest to assassinate me.â I donât remember how I offended you! â
Flower Orchid listened to Mo Liâs words. She gripped the silk handkerchief tightly and almost fell to the ground. She hurriedly explained.
âI didnât. You must have misunderstood. It must be a misunderstanding! â
âI also hope that itâs just a misunderstanding, but what should we do? I was lucky that day. Not only was I not hurt, I even caught a live one! It just so happened that the kid admitted everything! Including your plan to assassinate me! â
Flower Orchid reminded herself in a low voice that she must remain calm, that she did not catch him at all. However, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Because she was too nervous, her entire body was trembling.
Mo Shengâs deep and cold voice sounded, carrying some anger with it.
âSpeak!â Just what was going on!? What assassination! What live?! âHu-er, explain it clearly!â
Flower Orchidâs body trembled as she knelt in front of Mo Sheng and pleaded, âOld master, chenqie was wrong. Chenqie will never dare to do it again. Old master, I beg of you to spare this concubine of yours. Thatâs why chenqie would do such a ridiculous thing. â
