Last night, I talked with my elder sister Su Mochen. Although she kept her mouth shut, Su Xiaoxiao could guess from her expression that there was an abnormal relationship between her and Jing Zhe. There was no need to guess. If it were normal, how could a man enter the Fuchen Palace?
Later, she secretly sought confirmation from Guizhi and unexpectedly overheard that Empress Yueyao wanted to arrange a marriage between Jingzhe and the emperor.
She had heard that Jing Zhe had gone to court today, but he hadn't come out yet. Unexpectedly, she saw Murong Xi standing outside, seemingly waiting for someone.
So she quickly ran to inform Su Mochen, and after contacting Su Mochen, she instantly understood.
No wonder we couldn't catch him!
It turns out that instead of leaving immediately after court, he went to have a secret rendezvous with his elder sister! And to make matters worse, Empress Yueyao was waiting for him outside!
What a scumbag!
Su Xiaoxiao thought bitterly.
"Empress Yueyao?"
Su Mochen was also stunned, his eyes shifting as if he had also thought of a certain possibility. Then his brows furrowed little by little, and his eyes began to turn cold.
Seeing this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't resist adding fuel to the fire: "Yes, she waited there after court, and she seemed quite happy!"
"This... is the mission outside the main hall?"
"What?"
Hearing Su Mochen talking to himself, Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
Su Mochen didn't answer, but said with a firm gaze, "Xiaoxiao, come with your elder sister to see what kind of person this Empress Yueyao is, that she could deceive me!"
"What? That shameless guy dared to lie to my elder sister? That's absolutely shameless! My elder sister must teach him a lesson!"
Su Xiaoxiao added fuel to the fire.
"You were lying to me because the empress instructed you to. You have a right to blame her, what does it have to do with Jingzhe?"
"..."
Is this the sour, pungent smell of love?
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself sullenly.
...
Outside the Golden Palace, Murong Xi was indeed waiting quietly, just as he had said in court. As for the Holy Maiden Yueyao, Chuxia, she had already returned home.
Last night, she even thought that even if they didn't have a marriage alliance, it would be good if something happened between her and Jing Zhe. For a woman to meet a man like him was a rare and precious thing. After returning to Yueyao Kingdom, she would devote herself to the country and its people. Even if she got married, Chu Xia could take care of having children. She could remain chaste for Jing Zhe for the rest of her life...
However, Jing Zhe was too afraid of her status as empress. After being rejected again just now, Murong Xi finally made up her mind. There was an insurmountable gap between the two of them, which could not be bridged by marriage or love.
Therefore, she decided not to stay in Jingzhou any longer and would leave immediately after the New Year. During the remaining days, she only hoped to spend more time with him, so that when she returned to Yueyao Kingdom, she would have something to look forward to…
Emperor An had clearly agreed to let him accompany him on his mission, but instead kept him behind, which made Murong Xi somewhat unhappy. He deliberately said that he would wait outside, just to tell Emperor An not to keep him for too long.
Fortunately, Jing Zhe came out not long after.
"Your Majesty, we've kept you waiting!"
Having just won over Su Mochen, Jing Zhe was beaming with joy.
Murong Xi didn't want to ask, but she couldn't help herself and said with a pursed lip, "Did His Majesty leave you behind to tell you to stay away from me?"
"Your Majesty is overthinking it. He is telling me to accompany her on her tour and study these next few days, to fulfill my duty as a host!"
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, he urged, "Your Majesty, the palace is a place of great importance, and we should not stay any longer. Let's leave quickly!"
Although he had dealt with Su Mochen, Jing Zhe still dared not let his guard down and only wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Without a word, Murong Xi agreed and walked out of the palace with Jing Zhe.
Murong Xi was tall and well-proportioned, not much shorter than Jing Zhe. The two walked side by side, giving the impression of a perfect match.
At this moment, Su Mochen, accompanied by Su Xiaoxiao, rushed to the front of the main hall and happened to see the two walking out together, looking like a perfect couple.
"Elder sister, wasn't I right?"
Su Xiaoxiao seemed to be taking credit, but her teeth were clenched tightly, and it was unclear what she was angry about.
Su Mochen also clenched his fists.
"stop!"
Su Mochen's angry voice seemed to have a penetrating power and a huge deterrent force. Not only Jing Zhe, but even Murong Xi stopped very consciously, and then the two of them turned around in unison.
However, the expressions on their faces were very different.
Murong Xi was puzzled, while Jing Zhe was terrified.
At this moment, the two women walked up. Seeing Jing Zhe's grinning expression, which was more like a grimace, Su Xiaoxiao felt a surge of pleasure. She sneered and said, "Hehe, you shameless bastard! If I hadn't told my elder sister, she would never have discovered this shameless side of you!"
Hearing this, Jing Zhe finally felt relieved.
Su Mochen clearly promised not to send him back to Fuchen Palace, so why did he turn around and do this?
It turns out that Su Xiaoxiao was behind it all!
With an awkward laugh, Jing Zhe said, "Senior Sister Mo, this... isn't what you think!"
Originally, she was supposed to be called "Mo Chen," but after thinking about it, Jing Zhe decided it would be better to call her "Senior Sister" in front of outsiders.
What kind of image do I have in mind?
While saying this, Su Mochen's gaze remained fixed on Murong Xi, never looking away.
She wanted to see what kind of woman this Empress Yueyao was. Not only had she asked him for a marriage alliance time and time again, but she had also let him deceive her.
From the back, Su Mochen could only marvel at Murong Xi's great figure, especially her height, which Su Mochen was most proud of.
Among the four women in Jingzhou City, including Zhu Xinning, Su Mochen was undoubtedly the tallest, but compared to Murong Xi, she suddenly looked short.
She reached Jing Zhe's neck, while Murong Xi only reached Jing Zhe's nose. So when Su Mochen looked at the two of them from behind, he had to admit that they did look very well-matched.
This thought became even stronger when Murong Xi turned around.
Murong Xi's frontal figure is similar to her back figure; just as her back is perky enough, her front is also perky enough.
After admiring her figure, her gaze moved upwards again, and when she saw Murong Xi's face, which was already stunningly beautiful with just a touch of makeup, Su Mochen's heart clenched.
Today, Murong Xi was still wearing the same green dress as yesterday. The dress's fitted and tight fit perfectly showcased her slender and supple figure, adding to her charm.
With her fragrant skin, delicately drawn eyebrows, and a pair of bright, clear eyes, she was breathtakingly beautiful. Su Mochen was quite confident in his own appearance, but compared to Murong Xi's exquisite looks and temperament, he felt somewhat powerless.
As expected... they are a formidable opponent!
Su Mochen clenched his fist, thinking to himself.
