Chapter 27 What does it have to do with me how many women the tyrant has!
in the carriage.
Feng Xiyao can't ride a horse, so she can only ride in a carriage with the injured Kong Xueer.
The two had nothing to say. Feng Xiyao closed her eyes and conserved her energy, while Kong Xueer secretly opened the curtain and looked out to see Mo Cangyan riding a horse nearby.
Mo Cangyan felt Kong Xueer's fiery gaze, but he didn't even glance at her, looking straight ahead.
Kong Xueer looked for a long time before she put down the curtain and turned to look at Feng Xiyao who was closing his eyes and regulating his breathing.
"lady"
A voice was heard, Feng Xiyao opened her eyes, and saw Kong Xueer looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Seeing this woman looking shy, Feng Xiyao probably knew what she was going to say.
"Just say whatever you want to say?"
Kong Xueer bit her lip and spoke after a while.
"Excuse me, Madam, are you the only woman in your house serving Master Mo?"
Feng Xiyao smiled at the expected question and said, "No, my husband probably has..."
She lowered her head and thought for a moment, remembering the harem of three thousand beauties on TV, and said directly: "There should be several hundred! I don't know the exact number, there are too many!"
Kong Xueer's eyes widened: "So many? Mr. Mo looks like an upright person, how could this be?"
"Oh, what's the point of being upright? Men are just like that!"
Feng Xiyao looked at the shocked Kong Xueer calmly.
Kong Xueer frowned and clenched the handkerchief in her hand.
After thinking for a while, she continued, "Mr. Mo has so many wives and concubines..." At this point, she paused and asked tentatively, "I wonder what Madam thinks?"
Feng Xiyao pursed her lips.
[It doesn't matter to me how many women the tyrant has! 】
"Well, for a man, it's normal to have three wives and four concubines. I also... can't be ignorant of the rules, right?"
Kong Xueer smiled brightly when she heard this: "Thank you for telling me, sister!"
After saying this, she secretly lifted the curtain, took a few looks, and then shyly put it down.
This made Feng Xiyao stunned. She frowned slightly. She didn't say anything. Why was she so happy? !
The three people outside the carriage had strong internal strength and could easily hear the conversation between the two people in the carriage.
When Mo Cangyan heard Feng Xiyao's voice, he felt an unknown rage surge in his heart.
How dare she say that no matter how many women she has, it has nothing to do with her! !
Xiao Feng and Qin Fang looked at each other. Qin Fang looked helpless. The girl was just testing the empress to see if she minded her husband having another woman. As the legal wife, she should have not refused. But she even said that it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?
Xiao Feng smiled as if he deserved a beating. He glanced at the gloomy emperor secretly, and the smile on his lips deepened.
He grew up with Mo Cangyan and knew his personality. He was arrogant and could not tolerate any injustice. He never expected to see him so angry today.
After walking for another hour, they finally stopped at the gate of Confucius Mansion.
The servant at the door saw Kong Xueer and hurried back to report. After a while, a man in his thirties or forties ran out.
"Hey, my precious daughter, where have you been?"
Kong Xueer got off the carriage with red eyes.
“Daddy!”
Kong Lu walked over with a distressed look on his face, and finally consoled Kong Xueer after several words.
Thinking that there was someone behind her, Kong Xueer pulled her father to Mo Cangyan.
"Dad, he is Mr. Mo, and this time I am..."
Before she could finish her words, she saw her father kneel down immediately.
"Your Highness, I, Kong Lu, come to see the Emperor!"
Kong Xueer's eyes widened. She was attracted by his temperament and appearance at first, thinking that he was just an elegant young man from a wealthy family. She didn't expect that he was actually the current emperor.
Mo Cangyan stepped forward and helped Kong Lu up: "My dear, there is no need to be so polite. This time, I am very grateful to Miss Kong for blocking the hidden weapon for me!"
When Kong Lu heard this, he patted his daughter's hand with heartache.
Kong Xueer was stunned by Mo Cangyan's identity and stared at him blankly.
Feng Xiyao behind him tilted his head, not knowing the identity of this family.
Seeing Feng Xiyao staring blankly at Kong Lu, Mo Cangyan remembered that he had taught her the ability to predict the future, and gestured, "Empress, this is Kong Lu, the Grand Scholar of the Imperial Academy!"
Everyone looked at Feng Xiyao, and she gave a few awkward laughs.
“…”
Mo Cangyan didn't hear Feng Xiyao's thoughts about Kong Lu, and he frowned.
There was a case of cheating in a scientific examination before, and he had found some clues at the time, but before he could continue investigating, the witness died.
He thought about Kong Lu, but he couldn't find any evidence. He wanted to rely on Feng Xiyao's inner voice to find clues, but he didn't hear anything.
Mo Cangyan thought: Could it be that she doesn't know who Kong Lu is, or that Kong Lu has nothing to do with this matter?
Kong Lu hurriedly greeted a few people: "It's getting late, how about you stay in my humble home for one night?"
Mo Cangyan nodded and pulled Feng Xiyao along: "Thank you for the trouble!"
Kong Lu nodded fearfully, the smile on his face deepening.
"It is an honor for the Confucius Mansion that you can come to my humble abode!"
After seeing everyone go in, Kong Xueer frowned and lowered her head. Mo Cangyan is the emperor, and this woman should be the empress!
Thinking of what she had said to her in the carriage, she bit her lip: The Queen has always been neglected and has no real power. She should not be able to influence the Emperor's choice!
Thinking of this, she lifted her skirt and followed.
Kong Lu knew that everyone was tired after a day's work, so he specially ordered people to clean the guest rooms.
Qin Fang and Xiao Feng each had a room. When Kong Lu saw Feng Xiyao, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
"The Queen and I can just share a room. Don't bother your dear Lord Kong!" Mo Cangyan smiled and embraced Feng Xiyao.
Kong Xueer's eyes darkened when she saw Mo Cangyan hugging Feng Xiyao tightly.
Feng Xiyao was silent for a long time, until she left and was pulled into the room by Mo Cangyan, then she came to her senses.
When she heard Kong Lu just now, she couldn't remember who he was. It took her a long time to recall who he was.
[Kong Lu is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy and a legendary figure in Daxia. She was born in a commoner family and was known as a child prodigy at a young age. She later won the imperial examination and then relied on her extraordinary abilities to rise to her current position step by step.]
[In the eyes of outsiders, he is well-educated, upright, and a teacher who supplies talents to the country. But behind the scenes, he repeatedly opens backdoors for the children of officials! ]
[Not only are they academic frauds, they also kill all the poor students. Now in Daxia, it is extremely difficult to produce a poor student who is the top scholar. It is because of people like them who are blocking the way! ]
[I remember a passage in the book that said that a poor student, in order to break the monopoly of these people on the imperial examinations, found many students who had been targeted and jointly wrote a letter to the emperor to report the situation. Unexpectedly, before he could submit the letter, he was killed, and his seriously ill father was also burned to death at home!]
[Because of the suppression by the above people, many people don’t know about this incident. In their eyes, it’s just a death of a worthless person, which is nothing at all! ]
[As a result, there are now countless cases of favoritism and fraud in the imperial examinations in Daxia, and it is difficult for poor families to produce top scorers! ]
[Kong Lu is a bad guy. He is the biggest backer of those who cheated in the imperial examination. Many of the people in the court are his students. Even Lin Youquan wants to win him over. However, he is arrogant and looks down on Lin Youquan, a mere warrior.]
