Chapter 605 Prince Ning stole his sister-in-law?
"What nonsense?" Xie Wanjun's face turned ashen as she said in a cold voice, "The men of Da'an are still here, how can it be your turn as a little girl to sacrifice your life for the country?
If you say such nonsense again, don’t blame me, your sister-in-law, for turning against you and complaining to the Queen Mother.”
Mo Qichen said anxiously: "Chen'er doesn't want your aunt to go with you on the marriage!"
After listening to the mother and son, Mo Yingxue's eyes reddened and she choked up as she said, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to marry into Liang State either.
But if there is no marriage, what will happen to the people if the two countries really go to war?"
Song Yanxi raised her hand to wipe away her tears and said in a deep voice: "This battle cannot be fought."
Facing Mo Yingxue's tearful eyes, she continued, "Years ago, the Liang army suffered a great loss outside the border town. Most of their proud warhorses were destroyed by the weapons developed by the Bai family. Morale was at a low point.
Unless Wen Qi dies in peace, Emperor Liang, no matter how foolish he is, would not choose this moment to reignite the war."
Xie Wanjun followed her words and said, "I heard that Prince Liang cherishes his life the most. In the past, he rarely even stepped out of the palace. He must be reluctant to die."
If he doesn't die, this war will naturally not start.
Thinking of something, she couldn't help but look worried. "There are quite a few ministers in the court who advocate peace. Even if there is only a very small chance of gaining a moment of peace, they will probably persuade Your Majesty to agree to the marriage."
Song Yanxi nodded slightly, "Princess, your guess is correct."
Those who advocated ending the war through marriage even accounted for the majority.
Xie Wanjun guessed something, patted the back of Mo Yingxue's hand, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I will go find your third brother later and ask him to help persuade His Majesty.
No matter what, I will never marry you to the barbaric land of Liang State."
"Third sister-in-law..."
"Don't cry. Shedding tears all the time will hurt your eyes when you get old."
Mo Yingxue was about to cry, but Xie Wanjun's words made her laugh. She said angrily, "Why is Fifth Sister-in-law talking like my mother?"
Xie Wanjun thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps my mother and I share the same view."
In fact, she is not much younger than Queen Chu, so it is normal for them to have similar ideas.
The noble concubine Li in the palace, who was awarded the title of noble concubine for giving birth to the ninth prince, was even a dozen years younger than her.
Otherwise, people always say that power is the best thing.
Isn't it wonderful that a man who is already approaching the age of knowing his fate still has a beautiful wife in her twenties by his side?
Mo Yingxue smiled and threw herself into her arms, whispering, "Third sister-in-law, please don't sacrifice yourself for me. It's not worth it."
Xie Wanjun smiled faintly and said nothing, silently telling herself in her heart that she was worth it.
Yingxue is a kind girl. Over the past few years, she has helped them and their son in many ways, both openly and secretly.
This love must be repaid sooner or later.
Suppressing the turbulent thoughts in her heart, Xie Wanjun smiled at Song Yanxi and said, "I'll leave the matter I just mentioned to you, Princess."
Song Yanxi nodded her chin slightly, "This matter still needs to be considered in the long run."
Xie Wanjun smiled lightly, "No hurry, I can wait."
She turned her head to look at her son who was acting coquettishly towards Mo Yingxue, and her gentle eyes gradually became firm.
No matter what the cost, she has no regrets.

After hearing what Song Yanxi said, Mo Jinchuan's expression couldn't help but become serious.
He frowned and asked, "Xi'er, if Third Sister-in-law gets pregnant again, can she handle it with her current health?"
Song Yanxi said frankly: "Conceiving is not difficult. The difficult part is maintaining the pregnancy afterwards. How to ensure the safe birth of this child and minimize the damage to the mother's body as much as possible."
Knowing that he didn't understand as a man, she explained, "Giving birth for a woman is like going through the gates of hell, especially when Princess Ning gave birth to the young prince, she was seriously injured.
In addition, she has not taken good care of herself over the years, so compared with women of the same age, her health is more deficient.
If she becomes pregnant, the risks she faces are much greater than those faced by other women giving birth.”
The more Mo Jinchuan listened, the tighter his brows furrowed. "Is there any way to improve it?"
Hearing this, Song Yanxi couldn't help but feel surprised.
He actually supported Princess Ning in taking risks?
Understanding her expression, Mo Jinchuan explained, "Third sister-in-law may seem weak, but she is actually the most opinionated. Once she makes a decision, no one else can change it.
If she didn't want to, she wouldn't blink even if a knife was on her neck.
On the other hand, if she really wanted a child, even if her third brother didn't want her, she would always find a way."
This was something Song Yanxi had never thought of.
She sighed softly and said, "Although I can help Princess Ning recuperate, I can't just give her a child.
This kind of thing always requires the cooperation of the couple."
Mo Jinchuan said: "I will go and persuade Third Brother about this matter."
After a pause, he continued, "The reason why Third Brother has ignored Third Sister-in-law for so many years is actually related to this matter.
If she had been able to come to terms with it sooner and overcome this hurdle in her heart, their relationship might not be what it is today."
Song Yanxi has a different opinion on this.
She frowned and asked, "Your Highness, do you really think that Princess Ning is being rude to Prince Ning just because she doesn't want to have children?
It has nothing to do with the beauties in Prince Ning's backyard?"
Mo Jinchuan looked embarrassed, and after a while he said, "Third brother took concubines one after another just to piss off third sister-in-law."
Song Yanxi asked again: "If your Highness says so, can Princess Ning also keep a few concubines in her own courtyard just to piss off Prince Ning?"
Mo Jinchuan was choked by her and was speechless. Just as he was about to explain, he heard her say, "It's getting late. The prince should go back."
Anyone who is not extremely stupid can see that she is very angry at the moment.
If she had a big stick, she would even want to hit Mo Jinchuan twice.
In order to make her angry, he took in a concubine to bully her. Is this how much he loves her?
Seeing Song Yanxi's face flushed with anger, Mo Jinchuan quickly poured her a glass of water and handed it to her, explaining: "Xi'er, don't be angry, I didn't mean that."
"What does the prince mean?"
"The rift between Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law wasn't caused by taking a concubine."
"Your Majesty, do you believe what he said?"
Meeting Song Yanxi's angry eyes, Mo Jinchuan sighed softly and said, "Qi Chen's arrival was actually an accident."
Song Yanxi's expression suddenly changed, and she cursed, "Prince Ning, you beast!"
She stood up suddenly and was about to go out.
Mo Jinchuan hurriedly stopped her and blurted out, "They were tricked by someone else. It's not their fault."
Thinking of everything Song Baozhu had experienced in the Princess's Mansion, Song Yanxi felt a chill in her heart.
How many women have fallen victim to such insidious tactics?
After helping her sit down, Mo Jinchuan continued, "Originally, Third Sister-in-law was going to marry Big Brother and become the Crown Princess."
Thinking of the legendary handsome Crown Prince, an idea suddenly popped up in Song Yanxi's mind.
If he were to marry Princess Ning, they would definitely be a good match.
A gentleman like him would treat his wife with respect and love even if he did not like her, and would not speak ill of her like Prince Ning.
Harsh words can hurt people in the most invisible way.
Song Yanxi pondered and asked, "Were Princess Ning and the late Crown Prince in love with each other?"
With a cold personality like Princess Ning, I think she should prefer the gentle and polite former crown prince.
Mo Jinchuan chuckled, "How could anyone not like someone like Big Brother?
Even my always arrogant Third Brother followed his lead back then."
Song Yanxi believed this.
It is normal for someone who can make Emperor Xuande so afraid that he can only fabricate an "accident" to silence the gossips of the world to be admired by his younger brother.
Doesn't that mean Prince Ning stole his sister-in-law?
