Chapter 64 Contract



On the second day, Mo Weixin dressed up early as she said and got on the carriage back to the Marquis' Mansion.

But she only took a personal maid with her and nothing else.

She did not go back to the mansion directly, but after making a detour, she rushed out of the city.

There was a simple teahouse on the side of the road, with only one customer wearing a veil sitting inside.

Mo Weixin took a look inside and walked in.

"Boss, a pot of Biluochun."

After ordering a pot of tea, she walked straight to the only customer in the shop and sat down opposite him.

"You're finally here." A gentle female voice came from under the curtain.

"You're really early."

The other party smiled and said, "The early bird catches the worm."

After saying that, the man raised his hand and took off the curtain. Looking at the face, it was Zhao Wanqiu, the third prince's wife who had not yet married.

"Tell me, what do you want me to come out for?" Zhao Wanqiu adjusted the white gauze on Mu Li and gently placed it on the table.

Mo Weixin didn't beat around the bush and said, "The prince seems to have discovered something. He seems to want to send me back to the Marquis' Mansion now."

"So what?" Zhao Wanqiu looked at her with a smile.

Mo Weixin said: "Help me."

"Then what I agreed with the princess before..." She stopped here. There were some things that she couldn't ask for in person. She had to let the other party give them voluntarily.

"As long as I can be the regent princess, the Anding Marquisate will definitely support the third prince."

Zhao Wanqiu thought about it after hearing this, and then pretended to say, "That's a good point, but if you and I say it without any evidence, what should we do if the princess doesn't admit it?"

Seeing her showing off, Mo Weixin felt very unhappy and her tone became more aggressive: "Don't beat around the bush with me, just speak frankly!"

Having said that, Zhao Wanqiu didn't bother with any of that fancy stuff and just took out a drafted contract from her bosom.

She spread the paper on the table and said, "Princess, please take a look. If you agree, please sign and stamp on it. If you disagree, I will tear up this paper."

Mo Weixin read the contents of the contract carefully, and when she saw the end, she really wanted to tear up the contract.

"You want the tiger talisman?" Mo Weixin couldn't believe that this little girl, Zhao Wanqiu, dared to ask for such a high price.

Zhao Wanqiu smiled softly and said, "I told you that if you don't agree, just tear up this piece of paper. Anyway, it's not a big deal for me to just write a few words."

Mo Weixin clenched her fists and pressed them hard on the paper.

She is still hesitating.

Zhao Wanqiu looked at her, and after a while she said, "Princess, you have to think carefully about what is important and what is not."

Although Zhao Wanqiu didn't have much contact with her, she was able to grasp her personality to a certain extent.

She didn't know what Mo Weixin would choose, so she could only give it a try.

She was testing how important Xiahou Chongyuan was in Mo Weixin's heart.

"I agree."

Obviously, Zhao Wanqiu made the right bet.

She quickly took out the pen she had prepared and handed it to Mo Weixin, "Princess, please."

Mo Weixin took the pen, and when the tip of the pen was about to touch the paper, he suddenly stopped.

"Can you really help me get rid of Song Qingxue and seize the position of my principal wife?" She suddenly felt a little stupid.

Zhao Wanqiu is just a concubine's daughter of the Minister of Rites. She has no status and no rights. Why should she believe Zhao Wanqiu's words?

"Of course." Zhao Wanqiu said with a smile: "Since I dare to put forward conditions to the princess, I must be confident enough."

Seeing that Mo Weixin was still hesitant, she added fuel to the fire, "Besides, it is clearly written in the contract that the day you marry the prince is the day that Marquis Anding hands over the tiger talisman. If it really doesn't work out, you won't suffer any loss."

After hearing what she said, Mo Weixin believed it 90% and immediately wrote down his name and printed his own seal next to his name.

Zhao Wanqiu took back the contract, looked at it, then smiled and folded it and put it back in her arms.

"Princess, you can wait to become the regent princess."

After she finished speaking, Zhao Wanqiu stood up, took the Mu Li and put it back on her head, covering her face completely.

Zhao Wanqiu left for a long time before Mo Weixin came out of the tea shop.

"Let's go back to the mansion."

Although Mo Weixin returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Xiahou Chongyuan was not very happy.

He was wondering what reason he should use to send Mo Weixin back.

Although he knew everything that Mo Weixin had done, he couldn't fall out with Marquis Anding just because of these things.

After all, the military power in his hands should not be underestimated.

Now Xiahou Le's position is still unstable, and Xiahou Jun is also ambitious. It would be best if he could win over Marquis Anding, but if that is not possible, at least he should not be angered and give Xiahou Jun an opportunity to take advantage of him.

He was just worrying about his problem when he suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder.

He glanced sideways and found that it was Song Qingxue calling him.

"Finally you paid attention to me. What were you thinking about? I called you several times but you didn't respond."

After Song Qingxue finished speaking, she handed him half of the orange in her hand and said, "Would you like to try it? It's very sweet."

Xiahou Chongyuan naturally took the orange and tasted it.

“Isn’t it sweet?”

"Um."

"Tsk!" Song Qingxue pouted, "Have you only learned the word 'hmm'?"

"no."

"Tsk, forget it." Song Qingxue turned the topic back to the previous question and asked, "What were you thinking about just now?"

"nothing."

"A big secret?"

“…”

"Can't say?"

"Um."

"Okay, I won't ask anymore."

Song Qingxue pouted, finished eating the orange in her hand, and suddenly spoke again: "By the way, I heard that Mo Weixin returned to the Marquis' Mansion this morning?"

"Um."

"Is she coming yet?"

"..." Xiahou Chongyuan began to think about how to better answer this question.

However, seeing that he was silent, Song Qingxue immediately guessed, "It seems that he will come back again."

This woman, she treats the palace as her husband's home before she even gets married!

I really don't take her seriously!

Song Qingxue thought angrily, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

I have always called myself the villain's white moonlight, why should you take me seriously?

Tsk tsk tsk, I have to say, no matter if it’s a man or a woman, being overconfident is really discouraging.

Next?

Xiahou Chongyuan felt as if he had learned some new and strange words.

However, is this how Mo Weixin positions herself?

Xiahou Chongyuan felt like he was overwhelmed.

He has respected Mo Weixin as his elder sister since childhood and has always kept a distance from her. He couldn't figure out what went wrong that would lead to such a strange self-positioning in Mo Weixin's heart?

"Your Highness?" A hand waved in front of his eyes.

Xiahou Chongyuan was puzzled: "What are you doing?"

"Didn't you get enough rest? Why are you always distracted today?"

Song Qingxue was really a little puzzled. Ever since she entered the door, she saw Xiahou Chongyuan in a daze from time to time.

"It's okay." Xiahou Chongyuan sighed and said, "The room is a bit stuffy, accompany me for a walk."
