Chapter 178 Mo Qingcheng Returns Home
Looking at the woman sitting obediently on the marriage bed, Jiang Jue didn't know how to face her.
They all knew that those words were just to protect the queen.
What's more, apart from having met each other a few times before, the two of them could only be said to be acquaintances and had no feelings for each other.
“…”
Seeing the man standing at the door and not taking a step inside for a long time, Mo Qingcheng moved.
Her sweet and clear voice rang out: "Come over and lift the hood for me!"
Jiang Jue finally reacted, walked over awkwardly and gently lifted the veil.
Mo Qingcheng raised his head and their eyes met.
Usually Mo Qingcheng liked to wear green clothes or lovely bright pink clothes, but today she was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which made her pretty face look even more attractive, and her eyes sparkled brightly.
Jiang Jue realized that he was stunned and quickly looked away.
He felt a little annoyed, thinking that he was so superficial.
She was a princess who married him for the sake of him and the queen. He took a few steps back and bowed to her.
"Thank you, Princess, for saving my life!"
Mo Qingcheng saw the flash of surprise in his eyes and smiled secretly with complacency.
She helped Jiang Jue up, and deliberately touched her fingers lightly with his. She successfully saw the panic in his eyes.
"Master Jiang, don't blame yourself. I am only doing this for the sake of my sister-in-law and brother's reputation. I am doing this voluntarily!"
Before, Jiang Jue had always thought that Mo Qingcheng was spoiled and willful, but now after hearing her say this, he felt that he was too self-righteous before.
"The princess is tired today. I'll go out and ask someone to come in and help her rest!" Jiang Jue turned around and was about to go out.
“Don’t!”
Mo Qingcheng reached out and held him, pursing his lips a little aggrieved.
“…”
Jiang Jue turned around and was about to ask her what was wrong, but saw her looking at the shadow reflected in the window.
That was the old maid in the palace, who was ordered by the Queen Mother to teach the two how to consummate their marriage, and she was now watching outside.
If he went out now, not only would the Queen Mother blame him, but word would probably spread tomorrow morning that the princess and her husband were not getting along and would sleep in separate rooms on their wedding night.
Even though it was my own problem, everyone would think it was the princess' fault.
"Lord Jiang, let's sleep together tonight, otherwise if my brother hears about this tomorrow, we won't be able to explain it to him!"
As she said this, she climbed onto the bed and shrank into the corner, separated from the room by a quilt.
Jiang Jue looked at her without moving.
Mo Qingcheng thought that even after all he had said, he still didn't want to sleep with him, and was about to continue persuading him.
Jiang Jue said softly: "If the princess doesn't take off the hairpin on her head, she will not be able to sleep comfortably!"
Mo Qingcheng touched his nose and slowly sat up. In order to coax him to sleep together, he forgot about this matter.
Jiang Jue's eyes fell calmly on her head, and he reached out his hand to gently take off her hair crown. In an instant, her waterfall-like hair was let down and spread long behind her.
"Thank you, Jue, let's go to sleep!"
Mo Qingcheng raised her bright eyes and looked at him with a smile.
Seeing her closing her eyes and falling asleep, Jiang Jue thought about it and finally went to bed.
Neither of them spoke, and the room suddenly became silent...
The next morning.
Jiang Jue felt something move in his arms. He slowly opened his eyes and saw the woman in his arms.
He was so scared that he turned over and got out of bed, his face flushed.
Looking at the woman sleeping peacefully on the bed, he felt a little annoyed, thinking it was because he drank too much last night.
She was helping him out of kindness, but he actually took advantage of her while she was asleep. How shameless! Fortunately, she didn't wake up.
Afraid that she would wake up and see his beastly side, Jiang Jue turned around, opened the door and fled...
Not until the door was closed did Mo Qingcheng open his eyes and curl his lips in amusement.
…
Return home in three days.
Mo Qingcheng and Jiang Jue came to the Queen Mother's Shoukang Palace.
Seeing Feng Xiyao, Mo Cangyan and the others were there, Mo Qingcheng reached out and took hold of Jiang Jue, whose body was stiff, and smiled at him.
The Queen Mother was holding her pearl treasure, and when she saw them coming, the smile on her face deepened.
"The princess and her husband are here, come in quickly, we are all waiting for you, the newlyweds!"
Zhang Luoyi took his daughter and looked at the two people who walked in.
Mo Qingcheng walked in with a smile and called out sweetly, "Mother!"
The Queen Mother took her hand, her eyes full of love.
She only has this one daughter, so she loves her dearly.
He took her hand and looked her up and down.
"Now that you are married, you must abide by the rules. Don't cause trouble everywhere, and don't bully your husband just because he is honest!"
Mo Qingcheng held Jiang Jue's hand and smiled with his eyebrows curved.
"How could I possibly bully him? I can't bear to leave my daughter behind. I love him so much!"
"Shame on you!" The Queen Mother tapped her on the forehead.
Feng Xiyao looked at the loving appearance of the two and smiled.
If they truly love each other, isn't this a good thing?
Mo Qingcheng successfully escaped that tragic fate and was with the person he loved.
“…”
Seeing that she was looking at Jiang Jue, Mo Cangyan smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Seeing how happy you are, the Queen and I wish you the best!"
Jiang Jue met Feng Xiyao's gaze and forced a smile.
"The princess and I thank the emperor and the queen!"
Mo Cangyan held Feng Xiyao's hand and said, "Isn't the Queen happy to see them happy?"
Feng Xiyao glanced at him and saw a newlywed couple standing there.
"I'm so happy!"
“…”
Feeling that the atmosphere between the two was not right, Mo Lingyun, who had been entertaining the child, hurried out to smooth things over.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's eat. My baby Pearl is hungry!"
…
After dinner, we chatted for a few more sentences before the conversation ended.
Feng Xiyao was pulled out of Shoukang Palace by Mo Cangyan.
After leaving Shoukang Palace, Feng Xiyao shook off the man's hand and walked forward alone.
“…”
Looking at her leaving back, Mo Cangyan felt annoyed.
When she saw her ex-lover with another woman, she immediately couldn't stand it. What a great guy!
Feng Xiyao quickly returned to Fengchun Palace, and the system in her mind suddenly spoke.
[Host, my boss has found the thing that severed the connection between you and the tyrant. It's called the Emperor Mirror. We broke it, but it was repaired! ]
[Someone is deliberately working against us and wants to bring the story back to square one! ]
Feng Xiyao frowned: [What should I do? ]
System: [Now we can only rely on the Tyrant to break through on his own. Otherwise, even if we break the Emperor Mirror, they will be able to repair it. Repeating this will only disturb the Tyrant's consciousness and make him irritable! ]
Feng Xiyao thought about Mo Cangyan's increasingly impatient expression recently.
【So what should I do now? 】
System: [Try to stop the tyrant and the heroine from being together. Otherwise, under the interference of the heroine, the tyrant will be affected by the plot and slowly fall in love with her. In the end, not to mention your life value, the world will be pulled back to the starting point! ]
