"Mo Yan, I was just about to have a word with you about Mo Xian'er. I want to make things clear to you."
The others also stopped, wanting to know what they were talking about.
The Crown Prince gave him a cold look, and the others quickly left. They knew they were doomed if His Highness was angry, so they decided it was best not to provoke him.
After everyone had left, the Crown Prince prepared to speak with Mo Yan.
"Mo Yan, I want you to be my Crown Princess."
Mo Yan: "???"
"Your Highness, who gave you the confidence to say such a thing?"
Crown Prince: "???"
The crown prince was somewhat bewildered. What did this man mean? Shouldn't he be overjoyed to hear him say that? Why didn't he seem particularly happy?
"The Crown Princess, the future..."
Before the Crown Prince could finish speaking, Mo Yan interrupted, "Your Highness, please don't speak carelessly. My marriage is decided by my parents."
A young lady should not make a private engagement with her husband, and those men who want to make a private engagement with a young lady are no good.
They all wanted to gain something from the girl.
As for those girls who secretly pledged their lives to someone, most of them were disliked by others. Regardless of their happiness, their reputations were certainly ruined.
Mo Yan's sarcastic remarks made the Crown Prince want to hit someone!
Unfortunately, at this crucial moment, he needed Mo Yan's help but couldn't make a move.
"I will not, I promise, I will ask my father for a marriage decree and marry you."
"Mo Yan will refuse."
Mo Yan looked at the Crown Prince, her eyes devoid of any emotion. "Your Highness, my father fought on the battlefield, guarding the border, and I... only wish to be like him, guarding the border."
I do not wish to enter the palace, much less marry you.
The crown prince's face darkened completely. "Are you rejecting me?"
"Oh, so you understood. Yes, it's a rejection. Is there a problem?"
Mo Yan watched his face grow darker and darker, and thought it was really good.
"Aren't you afraid of offending me and having no good days ahead?" The Crown Prince's expression darkened even more. This Mo Yan was courting death!
Seeing his angry expression, Mo Yan smiled even more brightly.
She looked him straight in the eye and spoke softly.
"What are you afraid of? Is His Highness trying to threaten me or frame me?"
Or perhaps you want to fabricate evidence that I am guilty?
"Your Highness, you are not qualified!"
Even though the voice was very soft and the tone was flat, it sounded so grating to the prince's ears!
"Mo Yan!"
The Crown Prince is furious!
Just then, the Imperial Guards arrived. "Your Highness, the Emperor requests your return to the palace for questioning."
"knew."
The Crown Prince snorted coldly, looking at Mo Yan, "Consider yourself lucky today!"
Then the Imperial Guards looked at Mo Yan and said, "Miss Mo Yan, His Majesty wants you to come with him."
"good."
Mo Yan boarded her own carriage and followed the Crown Prince's carriage to the palace.
Mo Yan knew very well that the emperor did not want her to marry any of the princes, so she was not afraid of the crown prince at all.
In her previous life, the original owner had to beg her father and maternal grandfather without eating or drinking before the emperor finally agreed.
Upon arriving at the palace, Mo Yan thought she would be taken to see the emperor after the matter of the crown prince was resolved, but she didn't expect to be taken to see the emperor together.
"His Majesty said that Miss Mo can go along. We're all family, so it's fine for her to listen."
Mo Yan: "..."
It turns out that the emperor found out about the Third Prince injuring someone while riding a horse, so he sent them over to find out what happened.
The third prince was kneeling on the ground at this moment, and it seemed that he had already been beaten.
When the crown prince saw this, he had only one feeling: he deserved it.
"Your subject greets Your Majesty."
"Your subject, Mo Yan, greets Your Majesty."
The emperor glanced at the crown prince, then looked at Mo Yan and spoke.
"Get up, everyone. Don't be shy, Yan girl. Coming here is like coming home."
This nickname seems to indicate a fondness for Mo Yan, but that's just an appearance.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, Father Emperor."
After the two stood up, they stepped aside, and the emperor looked at the third prince below and spoke.
"Your Highness, you knew about the incident where the third prince injured someone while riding a horse. Why didn't you tell me?"
Crown Prince: "..."
"Your son... Your son..."
"Do you want to protect your brother, or do you want to shield him?"
I've said it many times: you are not allowed to use your status as a prince to harm the common people. Have you all been deaf?
The third prince quickly kowtowed and begged for forgiveness, "Father, I was wrong, Father, I know I was wrong."
"Your subject will go and apologize, to make amends!"
Looking at his son, the emperor was extremely disappointed. Now he knew he was wrong, but why didn't he do it sooner?
This emperor, in his early years, killed many of his brothers for the throne. He hoped his son would be obedient and sensible, and not kill each other for the throne.
I also hope they will become princes with both virtue and talent, instead of being seen as the kind of people who would do such a thing.
It's basically like this: the father can do this, but the son can't?
"Your subject dares not. Your subject was unaware that your third brother had injured someone while riding his horse."
At this point, the crown prince could only grit his teeth and say he didn't know. What else could he do?
What else can we say?
This matter will become very troublesome if it cannot be explained clearly.
"You don't know why you wouldn't know that he brought the antidote so quickly because he was riding a horse. It seems that Mo Xian'er is quite popular with you. How about I make her your concubine?"
