Chapter 606: Third Brother, I’m afraid he’s asking for it
After these words were spoken, both of them fell silent.
Although it is the truth, it is a bit harsh to hear.
Song Yanxi coughed lightly and asked, "Prince Ning was close to the late Crown Prince before, so he must have known that they were in love. Why did he misunderstand that Princess Ning and the prince had something going on?"
Mo Jinchuan said quietly, "Maybe it's because he's jealous."
Song Yanxi: "Feeling jealous?"
Mo Jinchuan nodded, "Back then, many people noticed that Third Brother was in love with Third Sister-in-law, and my eldest brother also talked about this with Third Brother in private.
The glass of wine that happened when the accident happened happened to be poured by the third brother for the third sister-in-law."
Song Yanxi murmured, "No wonder Princess Ning has always been so cold to him."
Mo Jinchuan's eyes darkened, and he said, "Third sister-in-law resents Third brother for guessing that the emperor had murderous intentions towards eldest brother, but never told her.
She always felt that the death of her eldest brother and sixth brother was her fault."
After hearing this, Song Yanxi felt only mockery. "If the king wants his subject to die, the subject must die. How can she alone change that?"
Mo Jinchuan sighed softly, "On the day they got married, Third Sister-in-law was so depressed that she wanted to commit suicide. Later, she heard from the imperial physician that she was three months pregnant, and that's when she gave up the idea of looking for Big Brother.
After that, I went to the border town alone, and only stayed at my third brother's house occasionally when I returned to Beijing. I didn't notice any awkwardness between them."
As if he found it funny, he said helplessly, "I don't know which boring people brought up the joke again, saying that I refused to marry after my coming of age ceremony because I had someone in my heart.
The third brother was narrow-minded to begin with, and his sister-in-law was always rude to him, so he believed it after hearing it so many times.
If you see me again from now on, you will inevitably be tempted to criticize me a few times. Perhaps a few words will make you feel better."
In fact, if you think about it, you should know that Xie Wanjun is eight years older than Mo Jinchuan, and the relationship between them can only be that of a sister and a brother.
Even if he really had some thoughts that he shouldn't have, Xie Wanjun would never have any thoughts about the brother she had watched grow up.
I really don't know if Mo Lingxuan is stupid or just too smart and ends up making mistakes.
Mo Jinchuan took Song Yanxi's hand and asked softly, "Are you still angry?"
Song Yanxi shook her head and sighed, "I just didn't expect that Prince Ning and Princess Ning had such a past."
Thinking about their current situation, she said worriedly, "Princess Ning is determined to have another child, and it seems difficult to change her mind.
I'm just afraid that after the two of them have been blaming each other for so many years, Prince Ning is unwilling to cooperate."
Mo Jinchuan said meaningfully: "Third brother, I'm afraid he would be more than happy to do so."
Thinking of something, Song Yanxi asked seriously, "Your Highness, do you know why Prince Ning hid the Ning Princess from her?"
She believed that Mo Lingxuan would not do such a dirty thing as drugging someone.
But knowing that Emperor Xuande was going to take action against the former crown prince, he concealed it and did not say anything, which seemed like something he would do.
Just like she said just now.
If the king wants his subject to die, the subject must die.
But even if Xie Wanjun could not change anything by herself, at least she could say goodbye to the late prince properly, so that she would not be caught off guard and learn about the death of her lover.
Not to mention, that person was his brother.
It would have been fine if Xie Wanjun had been kept in the dark, but she had to find out.
How could she not feel resentful?
Hearing this, Mo Jinchuan's expression turned serious. He said in a deep voice, "The day before my eldest brother's accident, Imperial Concubine Yu secretly met with my third brother. As for what they talked about, I don't know."
Concubine Yu was the biological mother of Prince Ning. For her, once the former crown prince died, her son lost his strongest opponent.
She wanted this more than anything, so naturally she wouldn't allow anyone to get in the way.
Even if that person is her biological son.
As a mother, she knows Mo Lingxuan's weaknesses best.
It's easy to control him.
Even an outsider like her could think of these things. Xie Wanjun had been close to the royal family for many years because of her father, Tutor Xie, so she should not have been unable to think of these things.
Perhaps, she was not unaware, but was too aware.
She was not unwilling to let Mo Lingxuan go, it was clearly unwilling to let herself go.
The more Song Yanxi thought about it, the more worried she became. She said with a serious expression, "If Your Majesty has time, you can go to Prince Ning's Mansion more often and persuade Princess Ning."
After she said this, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Mo Lingxuan had originally transferred his jealousy towards the late crown prince onto Mo Jinchuan, fearing that he would secretly miss his sister-in-law like himself.
If he went in front of him again, wouldn't he be misunderstood as a deliberate provocation?
Mo Lingxuan is so petty that he might be angered to death by himself.
Mo Jinchuan also had this concern. After thinking for a while, he said, "Yingxue has nothing to do anyway. Let her go out of the palace more often to accompany my third sister-in-law. Just think of it as a way to relax."
Song Yanxi nodded and said thoughtfully, "That's good. It will save her from being bored and reading those storybooks all the time."
The story of a romantic scholar and a pretty widow is nothing but an unrealistic fantasy of some poor scholars. If you see it too much, it will inevitably corrupt little girls.
Thinking of Mo Yingxue's pitiful appearance as she wiped away her tears, Song Yanxi frowned and asked, "Your Highness has spent another day with Crown Prince Liang. What have you learned?"
Mo Jinchuan's face darkened when he heard this. "Shameless and lustful person, let's not talk about him anymore."
Seeing that he was too embarrassed to speak, Song Yanxi called out softly towards the door, "An Yi."
The next moment, An Yi, dressed in black, appeared at the door.
Without waiting for her instructions, An Yi said respectfully, "Miss, the master accompanied Prince Liang to Yifang Pavilion today."
Why doesn't this name sound like a serious place?
Song Yanxi looked at Mo Jinchuan, and seeing his guilty look, she immediately understood something.
She curled her lips in a faint smile, and deliberately prolonged the ending tone as she said, "I thought it was some other place, but it turns out to be a brothel.
Prince Liang has come all the way here, and it would be inappropriate to spread the news that the prince is entertaining guests in a brothel."
Mo Jinchuan hurriedly explained: "I just accompanied you to drink tea and listen to music, nothing else."
An Yi quickly followed suit, saying, "Miss, please don't worry. I'm watching from outside. The girls in the brothel didn't even get close to the prince."
Song Yanxi nodded, not knowing whether she believed it or not.
Just when Mo Jinchuan was feeling annoyed and worried about turning on Wen Qi when he was taken to Yifang Pavilion today, he suddenly heard Song Yanxi ask, "What about Prince Liang?"
Hearing this, An Yi said with disdain, "I haven't seen the girl, but Prince Liang acted like he hadn't seen a woman in eight hundred years. He ordered ten girls in one breath."
He racked his brains and concluded, "There are all kinds of people, fat or thin."
Thinking of something, An Yi said with some satisfaction, "Most women in Liangdi are strong and sturdy. How can they be as gentle and affectionate as the women in Da'an?"
Mo Jinchuan asked with a cold face: "Have you seen it?"
Without thinking, An Yi blurted out, "Master, you forgot, when we were in the capital of Liang State last time..."
He swallowed his words back halfway through his speech.
God, what the hell was he talking about?
If the girl asks him later what they had seen in Liang State, what will he say?
He couldn't possibly tell the girl that his master was favored by the princess of their Liang State and was almost captured and taken to the palace to be a prince consort.
Seeing An's evasive gaze, Song Yanxi thought of something and curled the corners of her lips and said, "Since Commander An can't explain it clearly, then the prince should speak for himself."
Facing her slightly cold smiling eyes, Mo Jinchuan asked, "Xi'er, can we talk about this another day?"
