Chapter 754: Born in the Royal Family, Stupidity is a Great Sin
Mo Yingxue's crying stopped abruptly.
She turned around in disbelief, and after seeing that it was the Ninth Prince who did it, she pouting, "Wow, even my Ninth Brother bullies me.
I...I am dead!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she cried even louder.
The Ninth Prince was startled by her. He looked at his own hands and then looked up at Mo Yingxue.
Then, another slap.
He had a stern face and a serious look, looking like a smaller version of Emperor Xuande.
Mo Yingxue was angry at being beaten by him. She turned around and was about to teach him a lesson, but the moment she saw his face, she cried even harder.
She cried and said, "Wow, I will never be friends with Father again."
Concubine Li patted her back gently and soothed her in a gentle voice, "Princess, please don't say such angry words. Everyone in the palace knows that His Majesty loves you the most."
"They're all liars!" Mo Yingxue hiccuped and said angrily, "My father doesn't love me at all. He's going to marry me off to Liang State."
When she thought of the rumors about Wen Qi, she was so angry that she burst into tears. She bit her lower lip and said, "Even if I die, I will never marry into Liang State and become the Crown Princess!"
Concubine Li frowned, "Princess, who are you listening to? His Majesty normally wouldn't even say a harsh word to you, so how could he possibly let you marry someone so far away in Liang State?"
She thought of something and said with a grim expression, "I heard that Prince Liang is not a good man. Even if the State of Liang sincerely asked for his hand in marriage, your mother would definitely not agree."
"My Queen Mother..." Mo Yingxue bit her tongue and said in frustration, "You know my father's temper. Once he makes a decision, even if my Queen Mother cries her eyes out, it's useless."
As a concubine in the harem, Concubine Li naturally knew Emperor Xuande's temper.
He has a strong personality and always keeps his word.
Among his many children, only Prince Jin and Princess Roujia could persuade him a little when he was angry.
Even she, who had served His Majesty for several years and given birth to children for him, could only watch from afar when he got angry.
Seeing Mo Yingxue's eyes swollen from crying, Concubine Li sighed, patted her back gently, and comforted her, "Don't cry, Your Majesty may have just said that.
As long as the imperial edict does not come down, the matter is not settled.”
"Really?" Mo Yingxue had tears in her eyes, and she looked so pitiful that she was about to fall, which made people's hearts soften.
Concubine Li had watched her grow up. She patted her head lovingly and smiled gently, "Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"
Mo Yingxue sniffed, hugged her and rubbed her, saying: "Madam Li is so nice, I like Madam Li."
When Concubine Li heard this, she thought it was Jiaojiao who was beside her and laughed, "Our Yingxue is already an aunt. If she keeps crying, she will be laughed at."
"I don't care." Mo Yingxue snorted and held her tightly.
The Ninth Prince on the side became anxious, babbled a few times, and raised his little hand to pat her again.
Mo Yingxue seemed to have eyes on the back of her head. Without even turning her head, she said, "Xiao Haohao, if you hit me again, I'll be really angry."
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Prince quickly retracted his hand, touched his little face awkwardly, and pretended to be busy.
Li Fei was amused by his clever appearance and couldn't help but frown, "This brat, he really knows how to read people's faces.
Knowing you are easy to talk to, I dare to be unruly in front of you."
Mo Yingxue wiped her tears, turned around and picked up the Ninth Prince, teasing him while saying, "It's better to be smart. Being born in the royal family, being stupid is a serious crime."
Hearing the self-mockery in her words, Concubine Li frowned slightly, "Princess, why do you have to be so self-deprecating?"
She said with a serious face, "The princess is smart and insightful. Although she may be a little temperamental sometimes, she is also innocent and straightforward.
It really has nothing to do with stupidity."
Mo Yingxue gently squeezed the Ninth Prince's small, fleshy hand and said in a muffled voice, "Empress Li, you have changed."
As she spoke, she looked up at Concubine Li's somewhat surprised eyes, smiled brightly and said, "I like the current Concubine Li. She is more humane."
Concubine Li raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why, I didn't look like a human being before?"
"Yes." Mo Yingxue chuckled, "She's like an icy beauty, the kind that people only dare to admire from afar and not touch."
As soon as she said that, she realized something was wrong and quickly covered her mouth.
The Ninth Prince found it amusing and stretched out his little hand to pull her hand away, mumbling something incoherently.
Concubine Li took the little guy from her arms and said with a gloomy look, "Read less of those messy books in the future. You won't learn anything serious."
Mo Yingxue nodded quickly, then said somewhat unwillingly, "I'll send two copies over someday. Empress Li will know after reading them that some of the books are truly excellent.
It’s quite good for killing time on weekdays.”
"Really?" Concubine Li asked casually, "Is there still a book in the princess's palace?"
When the sad things were mentioned, Mo Yingxue instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "I just read some miscellaneous books and didn't do anything harmful, so how did I offend Fifth Brother?
Not only did they take all my books away, but they also made me copy twenty books of anecdotes as punishment."
Mo Yingxue said, showing her hands to Concubine Li, "Look, Concubine Li, my hands are almost covered with calluses."
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke, accusing him, "Fifth sister-in-law is so cruel. She and I are so close, but she doesn't even bother to say a few good words for me in front of Fifth Brother.
Could this be what the book says, "A united husband and wife can cut through metal?"
Song Yanxi just happened to lift the curtain and come in. Upon hearing this, she said helplessly, "The notebooks hidden throughout the Princess's palace fill up half of the study in Prince Jin's mansion. How can the prince not be angry?"
Mo Yingxue snorted coldly and refused to look at her out of spite.
Looking at her appearance, Concubine Li felt both amused and distressed, and called Song Yanxi to come and sit down.
When he wasn't paying attention, the Ninth Prince grabbed the collar on Mo Yingxue's chest with his little hand and giggled.
Mo Yingxue no longer cared about being angry, and hurriedly grabbed his little hand, trying to coax and trick him into letting go.
The necklace is not a problem, but the pendants hanging on it are mostly diamond-shaped, with several corners that are quite sharp.
If she accidentally scratched her ninth brother, she would be scolded to death by her mother.
Fortunately, the Ninth Prince was still young and was quickly attracted by the wooden sculpture in her hand, and reached out to grab it.
After carefully checking his hand to make sure it was not injured, Mo Yingxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She picked up the Ninth Prince, patted his butt twice, and scolded him with a smile: "You little brat, you are not a good boy. You just want to scare your sister all day long.
If you keep messing around like this, I’ll really beat you up next time.”
Not sure if he understood, the Ninth Prince pursed his lips, turned around and stretched out his hands towards Song Yanxi.
Seeing this, Concubine Li smiled and said, "This child likes you. Hurry up and hug him, otherwise he will cry."
As he spoke, tears filled the Ninth Prince's big eyes, which looked like black grapes, and he looked like he was about to cry out loud in the next moment.
Song Yanxi hurriedly took a few steps forward, carefully held him in her arms, and coaxed him softly, "Ninth Prince, be good and don't cry."
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Prince chuckled.
He laughed and reached out to grab Song Yanxi's hair.
Concubine Li called out in a cold voice, "Hao'er."
