The fragrance of tea wafts through the private room.
Shen Zhilan was sipping her tea. Upon hearing this, she put down her teacup with a snap, stood up, and abruptly interrupted, "Miss Mo, the only disagreement between you and me is a verbal dispute. Is it worth comparing me to a jinx?"
Thinking of how she once looked up to Wei Jing and regarded her as her cousin Xie Zhao's white moonlight, Shen Zhilan felt extremely disgusted and even ashamed of such thoughts.
Facing Shen Zhilan's questioning, Mo Yan's words were stuck in his throat, and he lowered his eyes and said, "Miss Shen, I'm sorry."
Mo Yan, who had always been spoiled, apologized honestly. Shen Zhilan picked up the teacup and glanced at her in surprise: "It's not that I'm stingy, but now Wei Jing is considered a big pest, with a reputation darker than the bottom of a pot. I don't want to be associated with such people."
Even if she were reborn twice, Shen Zhilan would never be able to reach Wei Jing's level. She has a sense of shame.
"Yeah, what good can come of marrying into the Mo family like this?"
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Mo Yan and Chen Zhilan share the same hatred for the enemy.
Mo Yan had a very restless sleep last night after receiving the news. She leaned weakly against the back of her chair and said dejectedly, "I dreamed that Wei Jing married into the Mo family and killed everyone in the family. My father, mother, eldest brother, and even everyone in the family died in a fire, especially my eldest brother, who was burned to charcoal."
When Shen Zhilan heard this, the teacup shook and the hot tea instantly rolled out, scalding the back of her hand red.
Jiang Yuzhu hurriedly ordered the maid to bring cold water: "Soak your hands in the cold water basin first, at least for a quarter of an hour, cousin Shen, the hot tea is scalding hot, and you don't know how to be more careful."
Shen Zhilan didn't seem to hear what Jiang Yuzhu said, her mind was on Mo Yan: "Miss Mo, you said you had a nightmare?"
It's not a nightmare, it's something that really happened in my previous life.
Shen Zhilan did not know the inside story, but when the news reached the capital, it was confirmed that the entire Mo family had indeed died in a fire.
Is Mo Yan a reborn person like her, or is everything just a coincidence?
No one spoke in the room and the atmosphere suddenly became depressing.
As a bystander, Jiang Yuzhu noticed something and asked, "Yan'er, why did you have such a dream? It's unlucky."
Shen Zhilan must know something, but she just can't say it.
Mo Yan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "Sister Yuzhu, when I was a few years old, I was in the north with my parents. We were playing hide-and-seek in a warehouse when we happened to see the barbarians burning their food supplies..."
Although Mo Yan was rescued by the soldiers in the end, she was left with a trauma and became afraid of fire from then on.
If you are under a lot of stress, you may also have nightmares about fire.
Shen Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief. There was a reason for everything. It seemed that she was overthinking it.
As they were talking, Princess Yutan pushed the door open and walked in. She set her eyes on Jiang Yuzhu's teacup and drank it all in one gulp with a very heroic gesture.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't care and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that I will have more enemies?"
Princess Yutan waved her hand and said, "I'm impatient and can't drink hot tea."
Fortunately, Jiang Yuzhu is not particular about details and doesn't follow so many rules.
Princess Yu Tan sat down, her brows furrowed slightly. "The news you received is true. Prime Minister Wei approached the Queen Mother three times, asking her to grant Wei Jing a marriage."
Prime Minister Wei must have made a deal with the Queen Mother. Princess Yu Tan tried to probe her again and again, but the Queen Mother refused to mention it.
"This matter is not easy to handle unless General Mo marries a wife first."
There are only a few days left until the Chinese Valentine's Day, and there is no time to prepare it.
Princess Yutan was also in a difficult situation, she couldn't use any strength.
Having fought in the north for many years with Mo Qianyu, the two have always treated each other like brothers.
"The Mo family has been loyal for generations. It would be a waste if they were to get involved with that dung beetle Wei Jing."
Princess Yutan sighed repeatedly. She also learned a secret by eavesdropping.
Everyone present was a member of the royal family. Princess Yu Tan had her maid guard the door. After learning that all the private rooms on either side were empty, she said, "Wei Jing, you are not a virgin."
"What?"
Mo Yan was so shocked she was speechless. After a long while, she opened her mouth and found her voice. "Then what qualifies her to be the Queen of Flowers?"
Chen Zhilan held her forehead and said, "Miss Mo, are you stupid? You are in such a critical situation and you still care about who the Hundred Flowers Lady is?"
Empress Baihua has always relied on internal appointments. The maids in the palace are responsible for the physical examination and can be bribed by paying more money, without even the Empress Dowager's order.
The Queen Mother has chosen Wei Jing and will definitely get many benefits from the Wei family.
The key point right now is not the Queen of Flowers, but the Queen Mother's plan to grant marriage to Wei Jing and Mo Qianyu.
Shen Zhilan really hated Mo Qianyu. The two had a grudge in their previous life, but she also didn't want to see her cousin Xie Zhao's brother getting involved with the stinkbug Wei Jing.
Mo Yan panicked, tears streaming down her face as she muttered, "What should I do? What should I do?"
Mo Yan suddenly came to her senses and bowed, "Princess, how do you know Wei Jing isn't a perfect woman?"
"It's no secret that Wei Jing was abducted by the barbarians."
When Mo Qianyu found Wei Jing, she was being ravaged by two barbarians.
Princess Yutan said calmly, "Qianyu is just like that. He promised Wei Jing not to tell anyone, so he probably didn't mention it to his family."
It's a pity that the Wei family made a series of outrageous moves afterwards, using the Queen of Flowers to whitewash Wei Jing's reputation, and even turned against her and wanted to marry her into the Mo family.
Mo Yan wiped away her tears with her sleeve and said, "Princess, don't blame my elder brother. He is just that kind of person."
The Mo family is rooted in the north, and the atmosphere is different from that in the capital.
The people in the north are relatively open-minded. For many years, the common people have been harassed by barbarians, and the women are very tough.
The barbarians are good-for-nothings. They specifically target the women in the families of soldiers.
"I remember two years ago, a barbarian raped the wife of a military household. My eldest brother led his men to kill the barbarian, and the wife begged my eldest brother..."
Mo Qianyu agreed, said nothing about anything, and asked his men to sew his mouth shut.
