It seemed the carriage was a bit hard, as the girl wasn't sleeping very soundly. After thinking for a moment, Ming Beiya reached out and pulled the girl into his arms.
The movements were extremely gentle, as if afraid of disturbing the person in his arms.
Fortunately, Mo Shisheng was not disturbed and woke up. When Ming Beiya held her in his arms, she only frowned slightly but did not open her eyes.
In just a short while, such a simple thing as holding Mo Shisheng in his arms made Ming Beiya break out in a sweat.
Looking down at the girl in his arms, he saw that she seemed to be sleeping soundly, her brows relaxed, her delicate little face exceptionally beautiful, with a hint of coldness emanating from it, like the chilling air emanating from a snow-capped mountain.

Luanfeng Palace.
Ever since Nan Xiao said those words, Situ Xue has stopped gently playing with her hair.
Perhaps because the atmosphere was too oppressive, Situ Xue chuckled lightly, "Your Majesty is right. From the beginning, I have hated Shangguan Yan to the extreme. Now that I hear Your Majesty say that Mo Shisheng is Shangguan Yan, I understand why I wish she were dead."
"She's clearly the ugliest woman in Qi Kingdom, so how did she get into Jialuo Academy? I really hate her!"
The feud between Situ Xue and Mo Shisheng likely began the night they entered Jialuo Academy. From the moment Mo Shisheng made a move against her, she began targeting him at every turn.

When Situ Xue heard the instructor announce the enrollment list and saw that Mo Shisheng was among the admitted students, she couldn't help but sarcastically remark, "Shangguan Yan is the ugliest monster in Qi Kingdom, she can't even cultivate, how did she get into this Jialuo Academy? Could it be..."
"If you say another word, I'll cut out your tongue."
Qingluan slowly approached the woman, her voice so cold it felt as if one were in an ice cellar.
The woman seemed surprised that someone would reprimand her. She stared with wide eyes, her beautiful features appearing deliberately stunning, which made people feel somewhat uncomfortable.
She looked at Qingluan and said disdainfully, "What are you to dare talk back to me?"
"We're all students of the Gara Academy, how can you be more noble than me?" Qingluan glanced at the woman indifferently. When she saw the woman's beautiful but deliberately made-up features, she knew her identity. She sneered, "Is this the kind of upbringing a princess of the Situ Kingdom has? Her words are simply unbearable to hear."
Princess of Situ Kingdom?
Mo Shisheng was naturally paying attention to the commotion. Her gaze fell lightly on Qingluan, and when she realized that she didn't recognize her either, a question arose in her heart.
Normally, people would avoid such situations, but she was the first to step forward and speak up for herself.
Mo Shisheng became more curious about Qingluan and slowly turned around to see what other nonsense the princess of Situ Kingdom had to say.
Situ Xue seemed surprised that Qingluan knew her, and even after learning her identity, she still spoke so arrogantly to her. Situ Xue was so angry that her breathing became rapid, and she raised her hand to hit Qingluan's face.
A flash of bloodlust crossed Qingluan's eyes. Just as she was thinking about how to cripple Situ Xue's hand, a scream rang in her ears.
Qingluan frowned slightly and looked over, only to find that Mo Shisheng had somehow appeared in front of her, the short dagger in his hand slashing deeply at Situ Xue's arm.
Mo Shisheng didn't use much force, after all, she had just arrived at Jialuo Academy and didn't want to make too many enemies.
