Mo Xian'er still has a limp. Although the poison has been suppressed, it has still made her crippled. Now it is inconvenient for her to walk, and even her skin is not as good as before.
"Crown Prince?"
The Crown Prince stopped and looked at Mo Xian'er with icy eyes. "Xian'er, why do I find that you are so popular?"
I used to be third, now I'm fifth. How many close friends do you still not know about?
Mo Xian'er's face changed, becoming even paler, with tears welling in her eyes. "Your Highness, how can you say such a thing?"
In Xian'er's heart, there has always only been you.
Xian'er has absolutely no relation to the other princes.
Mo Xian'er would never admit that she didn't want to offend anyone and enjoyed being the center of attention.
"No? How can I believe you?"
"Alright, you should go back to your room and rest. I've had someone arrange a room for you."
Mo Xian'er was taken away.
She was brought here by this person; she was a maid or servant, and didn't even have a change of clothes.
I forgot to mention, the Crown Prince isn't some male lead who only has one female lead; he has a concubine and several maids.
Even if Mo Xian'er was betrothed, she would only be a concubine. That very night, the secondary consort went to teach her manners.
The concubine had also seen Mo Xian'er several times at the Crown Prince's residence and noticed that she seemed to have a good relationship with the Crown Prince.
As they were all women, the concubine knew very well that Mo Xian'er was seducing the Crown Prince.
Upon seeing the concubine, Mo Xian'er showed no intention of bowing at all; in her heart, no one could make her bow.
"You daring Mo Xian'er, now that you've entered the Crown Prince's residence, you must understand its rules. I am a concubine and you are a maidservant. Don't you know you should greet me?"
Mo Xian'er was taken aback, looking at the concubine with disbelief. "Concubine? Where did you come from?"
The Crown Prince had never let her see these people before.
"I was betrothed to His Highness the Crown Prince by the Emperor, and it has been three years now. How come you didn't know?"
Mo Xian'er, of course, had no idea that she still wanted to be with the Crown Prince for life, but now, how could they be a couple like this?
"I don't know..." Mo Xian'er was very angry; the Crown Prince had never told her.
"Now that you know, why aren't you bowing?"
Mo Xian'er was naturally unwilling; she was different from them, as she was the person the Crown Prince favored.
But they were just women in the backyard.
Mo Xian'er did not move.
Upon seeing this, the concubine walked over and slapped Mo Xian'er without hesitation.
A hard slap.
With a "snap".
What are you doing!
Just then, the Crown Prince arrived and slapped the concubine as well. "Get out!"
The concubine covered her face and left angrily, her eyes filled with hatred as if she wanted to devour Mo Xian'er.
Mo Xian'er's eyes were full of tears as she looked at the Crown Prince with a wronged expression. She didn't understand why the Crown Prince had a concubine, which was different from what the Crown Prince had said before.
"Your Highness?"
The Crown Prince looked at Mo Xian'er's face; it was very swollen...
"I'll go and call the royal physician." Mo Xian'er actually looks rather unattractive like this.
Mo Xian'er shook her head, feeling wronged.
Mo Xian'er wasn't oblivious to the Crown Prince's bad mood, but she was in an even worse mood now; the Crown Prince had gone too far.
He never told her about this.
So they both fell silent.
The Crown Prince was used to being waited on hand and foot; they were always the ones begging for his favor. But this Mo Xian'er...
To put it simply, before she became his woman, he thought she was wonderful, unattainable, and he was willing to give her some tenderness, thinking about marrying her in the future.
But she became his concubine just like that, and he was unhappy, very unhappy.
The concubine had no dowry whatsoever; he wanted the Mo family's physician, the one behind the Mo family...
You know, there are many doctors in Lingnan, which is a great help to him. He likes her, that's true, but the power behind her is also real.
Right now... there's only Mo Xian'er.
"No need, Your Highness, I have ointment here."
My parents brought me some ointment; it's a new formula from our clinic.
After Mo Xian'er took it out and applied it, the swelling miraculously subsided.
"What's wrong with Xian'er?"
"This is a medicated ointment that can reduce swelling and bruising. It feels cool and comfortable after applying it."
The Crown Prince's gaze changed, and he held her tightly. "Xian'er, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I failed to protect you and caused you to be implicated by the Third Prince. Otherwise, you should be my Crown Princess."
Mo Xian'er: "!!!"
"What happened?" Mo Xian'er had no idea what was going on.
"My father found out about the incident where the third son injured someone while riding a horse, which is why you were implicated."
Mo Xian'er: !!!
"What does this have to do with me?" Mo Xian'er was speechless. What did this have to do with her?
"He did it all for you... that's why Father is angry with you..."
Mo Xian'er felt even more aggrieved. This had nothing to do with her. It was clearly the Third Prince's problem. Did she have to be a concubine forever?
"Your Highness, what will I do in the future?"
"Don't worry, I love you dearly. From now on, you are the mistress of this mansion, and no one can harm you. Tomorrow, I'll take you to fight back personally!"
——
After Mo Yan returned, Mo Lin already knew the news and rushed over to ask what had happened.
"younger sister……"
Fortunately, he still had some sense and didn't say anything at the door. After they went inside, he asked Mo Yan what had happened.
"Sister, what happened? Why did the Emperor summon you as well?"
