Chapter 478: Your brother may not be able to enjoy this blessing
Seeing that Song Yanxi was actually considering it, Mo Jinchuan's face darkened and he almost crushed the cup in his hand.
Good job Qiu Zongping, he really didn’t misjudge him.
Qiu Ling rubbed his arms and muttered, "It's such a sunny day, why did it suddenly get so cold?"
Song Yanxi picked up the teacup and took a sip. She glanced at someone out of the corner of her eye and said meaningfully, "Maybe it's a late spring cold snap. Ling'er, remember to put on more clothes."
Qiu Ling smiled sweetly, "Sister too."
Thinking of something, the smile on her face became even wider, "Sister is so good, it would be a blessing for my brother if she could be my sister-in-law!"
Mo Jinchuan said with a cold face: "I'm afraid your brother won't be able to enjoy this blessing."
Qiu Ling was startled. Just as she was about to ask what was going on, the maid came in and reported, "Miss, Miss Xu is here. She said she wants to invite the princess and you to go to Wanzhen Tower together to choose a birthday banquet for Miss Jiaojiao."
Xu Ruyue also received the post?
Meeting Song Yanxi's gaze, Mo Jinchuan shook his head.
He was not aware of this matter in advance.
And there’s Xu Ruyue, whose name I’ve never even heard of.
Qiu Ling frowned and pulled Song Yanxi aside, whispering, "Why did the prince send an invitation to Sister Ruyue? Doesn't he know how she feels?"
"What's your intention?"
"That's it..." Qiu Ling looked conflicted, wanting to say something but not daring to.
That hesitant look says it all.
It seems that the young lady of the Xu family is most likely interested in the prince.
Knowing this, Song Yanxi was not surprised.
Looking around Da'an, there are countless women who want to marry Mo Jinchuan.
When he was seriously injured and unconscious, Princess Huayang had the idea of finding a wife for him to bring him good luck. Once the news was released, many people were eager to try.
It’s a pity that he became a father at an early age, and all the children he gave birth to were extraordinary.
With just one poem, Zi Yan not only earned the title of "child prodigy" of Bailu Academy, but also eliminated the thoughts of most aristocratic families.
If parents have any love for their daughter, they would never be willing to let their daughter in her prime become someone else's stepmother.
It's a good thing that Mo Jinchuan is fine. They will have their own son in the future so that they will have someone to rely on when they are old.
But if he couldn't wake up, or died of illness, she, a stepmother with no relatives and only the title of princess, would really not be able to survive.
With these children around, we can't even adopt a child from someone else.
Even so, Song Yanxi still heard that several young ladies were on hunger strike in protest, claiming that they would be willing to be buried with him immediately if they could marry him.
He was still so charming back then, not to mention that his old injury has healed and he can walk without any problem.
It's normal for someone to have such an idea.
Qiu Ling secretly glanced at Mo Jinchuan and said in a low voice, "No wonder they all like him. His Royal Highness Prince Jin is indeed handsome."
Song Yanxi raised her eyebrows and jokingly said with a smile, "Ling'er likes it too?"
Qiu Ling hurriedly shook her head, her voice even lower than before.
She was speaking completely in a whisper, and even though her head was close to hers, Song Yanxi still couldn't hear clearly.
What's coming?
Seeing her confused eyes, Qiu Ling bit her lower lip, leaned forward and repeated it again.
This time, Song Yanxi heard it clearly.
She said, "Ling'er doesn't like the prince. The prince is too old."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yanxi caught a glimpse of Mo Jinchuan's mouth twitching, obviously he had heard it.
It seems that having too high martial arts skills is not a good thing.
It's inevitable to feel guilty when talking about others behind their backs. Qiu Ling coughed lightly, looked at the waiting maid and said, "Go and tell Sister Ruyue that Sister Yanxi came here today to check my mother's pulse and is busy.
When I have time in two days, I will go look for her myself."
The maid received the order and quickly retreated.
But not long after, she came back with an embarrassed look on her face.
She didn't even need to say anything, Qiu Ling knew what was going on.
She frowned and stood up, looking at Song Yanxi and said, "Sister, please help entertain the prince. I'll be back soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, she left in a hurry.
She never thought that she was the host and Song Yanxi was the guest.
How can we let guests entertain guests?
In the blink of an eye, they were the only two left in the pavilion, staring at each other.
Song Yanxi suppressed her smile and said politely, "Your Highness, please have some tea."
Mo Jinchuan pulled the corner of his lips and said in a neutral tone: "You are not polite at all."
Song Yanxi raised an eyebrow and smiled instead of getting angry, "Your Highness is very polite. You're not leaving after having a meal with me. Are you planning to eat dinner with me?"
We are all guests, who is more noble than who?
Besides, she wasn't the one who said he was old, so why should he vent his anger on her?
It really makes no sense.
Seeing that Mo Jinchuan was choked and unable to answer, Song Yanxi curved her eyebrows and was in a very good mood.
I was drinking tea when I heard the man across the table ask, "Do you think so too?"
Song Yanxi was stunned by the question, "What do you think?"
Immediately, she thought of something and looked at Mo Jinchuan, whose expression was indescribable, and said, "Your Majesty, eavesdropping is not what a gentleman does."
Mo Jinchuan: "I will be a villain for once."
Song Yanxi: “…”
This was the first time she had seen someone being a villain and being so righteous.
The key point is that these words came from the mouth of the dignified King Jin.
Even if you tell it to others, no one will believe it.
Some people even think that she has gone crazy and is biting randomly.
Seeing that Song Yanxi was hesitant to speak, Mo Jinchuan took it as her tacit agreement and said with a dark face, "I am not much older than her."
Song Yanxi nodded, "Indeed, she is only in her teens."
Mo Jinchuan's face turned even darker when he heard this.
If he remembered correctly, Qiu Jialing'er was just fourteen years old this year.
If it were any other ridiculous noble family, at his age, they would have given birth to a daughter this big...
By this calculation, it is reasonable for the little girl to say that he is old.
What about Song Yanxi?
He was eight years older than her. When he and his brothers entered the Imperial College to study, she was just born.
Would she... also think he was old?
Song Yanxi was unaware of the confusion in Mo Jinchuan's heart, and took advantage of the fact that no one was around to ask him about what happened in the morning court today.
When she first arrived at Qiu's house, she saw someone from the Dali Temple delivering a letter.
It is unknown what was said, but judging from the serious expression on Lord Qiu's face, the Dali Temple will probably be busy next.
Nothing major has happened in the capital recently. If nothing unexpected happens, Your Majesty should have reported the matter of their assassination on their return to the capital to the Dali Temple.
Mo Jinchuan nodded and said, "You are right. Father has indeed handed this matter over to the Dali Temple for full investigation. However, my second and third brothers seem to be quite concerned about this matter."
Song Yanxi frowned, "Hasn't Prince Ning been staying in the mansion to recuperate these days?"
Mentioning this, Mo Jinchuan said with a look of surprise, "Third brother almost fainted in the palace today. I'm sure that within two days, the emperor will send someone to ask you to go to Prince Ning's mansion to treat him."
Song Yanxi had anticipated this before returning to Beijing.
There was just one thing she needed to ask Mo Jinchuan about.
"Your Highness, do you think there's any hope for His Royal Highness Prince Ning's recovery?"
