After Madam Mo left, the old lady smashed her cup in anger, yelling, "You wretched child!"
——
They walked for a long time in the palace, and finally saw the emperor's place in the distance.
Siyu was almost exhausted from walking all the way. She felt that if she could post on her WeChat Moments right now, her step count would definitely be number one.
When they arrived at the emperor's palace, Mo Yan and her children were taken inside.
The emperor personally spoke with several of his grandsons, ultimately telling them that once they came out, they were not allowed to tell anyone about what had happened inside.
The grandsons dared not refuse and recounted everything. They were filled with rage and hatred for the courtesan, wishing they could devour her. However, when they spoke of their father, they were all filled with sorrow and pain.
This is what they told the emperor: they had thought about going to war, about studying hard, about helping their grandfather, but they never imagined their father would…
"Grandpa, what did we do wrong? Were we not good enough or hard enough? Why did Father kill us?"
The emperor was even more furious after hearing this. That scoundrel had hurt his own children like this.
"Don't worry, with Grandpa Emperor here, everything will be fine. No one can hurt you."
The emperor was very dissatisfied with his son's actions; how could he possibly want to kill his own son for a woman?
Previously, the emperor was quite satisfied with the Prince of Qin, believing he was capable of inheriting the throne. But today, why does he feel that he was somewhat blind in the past?
If someone can kill their child for a woman, does that mean they can also kill their father for the same woman?
“Grandfather, if Father really doesn’t like us, he can send us to the estate. My brothers and sisters are willing to grow up on the estate. We can be separated from the family as soon as possible.”
If you don't like our mother and aunts, you can divorce them or send them away, and spare their lives!
The children cried their eyes out.
Ruoxuan finally tugged at the emperor's robes, pleading, "Grandfather, please grant your grandchildren an imperial edict! Even if Father settles scores later, he says he is our father and can make our maternal family pay with their lives!"
The emperor, being the kind of person he was, immediately understood his grandson's words. He slammed his fist on the dragon throne and roared, "You scoundrel!"
Several children knelt on the ground, pleading, "Grandpa, please calm your anger!"
Calm down! How can he calm down?
This bastard is already thinking about what he'll do when he becomes emperor. He doesn't want to live anymore! Well then, let's grant his wish!
If the kids are saying this, then that bastard must have said something, and they might even be hoping their father dies sooner!
"Don't worry, Grandfather is not angry. Let's go see your mother together."
The emperor saw Mo Yan again, and he never expected that Mo Yan would personally stand in front of the children and even hit the Prince of Qin.
Upon seeing the emperor emerge, Mo Yan bowed.
"Your daughter-in-law greets Your Majesty."
The emperor gave Mo Yan a look, signaling her to get up on her own.
Mo Yan didn't stand on ceremony and stood obediently after getting up.
The emperor was waiting for Mo Yan to speak, but she remained silent, so the emperor spoke first.
"Mo Yan, why did you hit the King of Qin?"
"Father, I dare not accept such praise. I only took action because I had no other choice."
The King of Qin was about to kill his children for the sake of a courtesan, and his daughter-in-law, as their mother, naturally had to stand in front of them.
The daughter-in-law merely managed to subdue the King of Qin and bring them before her father.
Mo Yan won't take the blame for this; no matter what, it's impossible for her to admit it.
The Emperor: "..." She's quite eloquent.
"Did you spread this information?"
The emperor had received word that the censors were on their way.
They all knew about this and were going to report it to the King of Qin. It was impossible that Mo Yan and her group weren't involved in this, even if Mo Yan was on her way to the palace.
"Father, their love story has been circulating in folk tales for about a month now. It's said that they wrote it together."
The daughter-in-law didn't pay much attention at the time. The prince's romantic escapades were a well-known story. If he really liked a woman, he could just take her in. The prince's mansion could afford to support her. But who could have imagined that the Prince of Qin would lose his mind and not only want to give this courtesan a lifelong commitment, but also offer the kingdom as a dowry to marry her?
At the end of that story, they expressed their shared wish: to be together forever, with the empire as their dowry, and to marry her as their empress.
The emperor's face darkened; he hadn't actually discovered this. With a single glance from him, someone was quickly sent to investigate the storybook.
Mo Yan acted as if she hadn't seen his dark expression and continued speaking.
"The daughter-in-law thought that the King of Qin must have something to rely on when he said that. He must have received a promise from the Emperor."
The daughter-in-law knew that she was not well-liked, but it didn't matter. She was content with her lot and only wanted to manage the household and take good care of the children.
Who knew that even so, the King of Qin was still not satisfied and wanted to kill us for that woman.
My daughter-in-law can die, but she cannot die in such a humiliating way. If she really dies like this, what face will my Mo family have left?
Was it because a courtesan was killed by the King of Qin?
The emperor's face darkened even more. Not only was the Mo family utterly disgraced, but the emperor himself was even more shameless!
Thinking about all this, the emperor wanted to kill his son to see what was going on in his head.
I used to think he was quite pleasing to the eye and that he was capable, but now the more I think about it, the more I feel like he's an idiot.
