Chapter 186: Strong Support
"Your Highness!" Mo Rushan led everyone in saluting.
"Come in and talk!" Li Jing's voice was low and steady as a rock.
What father-in-law, uncle... I can't act in front of him at all, I just have to nod and bow.
Mo Rushan glanced at his second brother who was following Mo Yi. Why are you so nervous? The fact that the prince can accompany Mo Yi back home... shows that this girl has great reputation. What else do you have to worry about?
Look at this girl! She really has the aura of a princess. Tsk! Until now, I still don't understand what's going on.
In the room, the women were standing aside in fancy clothes. Mo Wen and Mo Yuan looked at Mo Yi carefully... Well, she should be living a good life.
But Mo Wen had complicated thoughts, while Mo Yuan was very excited: she would soon be a guest in the palace, and maybe she could stay for a while! Could she go during the New Year? She wanted to wear that...
Mo Ruhai and Wang, who was dressed very luxuriously, sat on top.
Mo Yi knelt down and offered tea.
The Mohists did not dare to set up a cushion for Li Jing, and they did not dare to accept his kneeling.
Li Jing indeed just stood there and bowed deeply, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law."
After this shout and the bow, Wang felt uneasy. She forced an exaggerated smile on her face, not knowing how to respond.
"No need to be so polite, my dear son-in-law! Yi Yi, please get up quickly." Mo Ruhai was still calmer.
Mo Ruhai had spent a long time preparing the gift for the wedding, which he had found among his treasures. He also wrote a poem about the gift and associated it with his daughter's wedding. Wang looked down on it and wanted to give her own good things, but Mo Ruhai refused.
"I'm just expressing my feelings, not trying to save face!"
The gift Mo Rushan gave was a military book from an unknown era, good or not, but a little special. Li Jing really valued it and even flipped through it, which was quite a treat for him.
Then, Li Jing greeted everyone one by one with a gentle and patient attitude. Of course, no one dared to talk too much nonsense with him.
He smiled and nodded to the two eldest sons-in-law of the Mo family. As for Xu Ke...the two had never spoken to each other before. But Li Jing knew the Xu family, so he chatted with them for a while.
Xu Ke was able to answer questions calmly and chat happily in front of Li Jing. He was much more graceful and elegant than the two older sons-in-law before him!
Mo Wen saw it all and felt extremely proud.
With so many happy events happening to him, Moda was in high spirits. He was polite and well behaved in front of Li Jing.
"Mo Fan, how have you been lately?" Li Jing knew that this guy had the best relationship with his wife.
"To reply to the prince, everything went well. The master took good care of Mo Fan. There will be an assessment after the New Year, so it should be no problem!"
"Okay, tell me if you have something to say." Then, Li Jing saw the calligraphy.
Tsk, this little guy: delicate features, red lips, white and plump, with a bright face, you can tell at a glance that he is well-nourished and quite cheerful.
...I have a good impression.
As a result, Mo Xiaobao became the person who talked the most to Li Jing, and even asked about his homework.
Mo Xiaobao's two major hobbies in life are reading and eating. So when asked by the prince, he was not timid, and answered with a childish voice.
This surprised Li Jing, and he asked him where he went to school. Mo Xiaobao answered, but Li Jing had never heard of it.
“Never heard of it… Is it a good school?”
Mo Rushan said quickly, "The school is ordinary, but it's close to home. It's not easy to get into a good school. Mo Bao's homework is acceptable because in addition to going to school, I and my second brother will also tutor them. In addition to the school homework, we will also assign some more. Fortunately, they are still hardworking."
So, Moda passed the imperial examination at a young age.
"Is that so..." Li Jing thought again, "Why don't I go back and make arrangements for him to enter the Imperial College?"
He looked at the little fat boy. Apart from being a little fat, he had bright eyes, looked smart, and was calm. He was about the same age as Anian. He wanted him to be Anian's tutor and suppress his reckless temper. Hmm, this was a good idea!
"Is this true? Thank you, Your Highness!" Mo Rushan was very excited.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Mo Ruhai also stood up excitedly and bowed.
Even Wang Shi heard this and covered her mouth with her handkerchief, almost laughing out loud...
Medha was very envious of his brother's opportunity. He was so envious that his mind suddenly twitched, "Your Majesty, Medha has something to ask, I wonder if you can help me..."
When everyone heard this, they were surprised and looked at him.
Moda blushed, "It was the student who was rude..."
"No problem, go ahead."
"I want to be a disciple of the great scholar Mr. Yang Shengqing... I heard that there are still two vacancies. However, although Mo Da passed the imperial examination, he has nothing special to show for it. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Yang to favor him. I wonder if I can talk to him, Your Majesty."
"As for your advancement, I will certainly help you. If Mr. Yang doesn't work here, Mr. Bai Wuhuan will always be able to help you!"
Mo Da clapped his hands, overjoyed, and stood up: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
At this point, Wang finally couldn't help it and said, "Oh, thank you for your hard work, my dear son-in-law! This is great! You don't know, these days, not to mention the Mo family, even my family has asked for help from their connections. I didn't expect that you solved it with just one sentence! Oh, this is really..." As expected, when she got excited, her voice rose several degrees.
Mo Wen said quickly, "Mother, you are so happy!" He pulled Wang, who was dancing with excitement. He turned to Li Jing and said, "Don't blame me, Your Majesty. It's just that mother has been too anxious these days. Just now she even said to me that she wanted me to go back and ask my parents-in-law!"
Li Jing glanced at Mo Yi and smiled, "I understand."
Mo Yi's eyes lit up. These two things were beyond her expectations... She was extremely excited.
Xu Ke watched everything silently. The prince's support was really great. He crossed his hands in his sleeves and twirled his thumbs together... Things were going in a direction he had never expected.
The following women were not formally introduced.
There will be basically no chance for us to meet in the future, let alone talk, so it doesn’t matter whether we recognize each other or not.
Mo Rushan ordered, "Zhuang, go take a look at the stove. We are accompanying the prince, you women can go and have private conversations." He turned to Mo Fan and said, "Go take a look at the tea served by the prince's servants."
The women bowed and left.
When a married daughter returns home, her mother will definitely ask about it.
But Wang was a little scared. She really couldn't handle Mo Yi.
The two major events just now made her so happy that she was just afraid that she would say something that Mo Yi would not like to hear...
On the way back to the room, he asked hastily, "Yi Yi, is everything going well in the palace?"
"Don't worry, mother. My daughter is fine."
"That's good, that's good! Just now, from the look on the prince's face, I knew you should be very good. Oh my God, now your elder brother and your younger brother are going to be very successful! This is really an incredible thing! Oh, the prince loves you so much!"
Mo Yi smiled and said nothing.
"Mother doesn't know about the affairs of the palace, and can't teach you anything. Be careful and don't make the prince unhappy. Also...your mother's family...will you and the prince go there?"
"The prince didn't say anything. Don't worry, mother. If the prince can't go because of something, your daughter will go too."
"That's good!" Although Wang had expected this, she was also a little disappointed and didn't dare to say anything else. "Then you can talk to the sisters. I'll go check on the stove. Mother bought a lot of good ingredients today. Don't let them spoil them."
After mumbling for a while, he left in a hurry.
