Wang Meng: "..."
Wang Meng is not afraid yet; he believes his trump card will still be able to impress Mo's father.
Mo Yan brought Wang Meng to her father.
When Mo's father saw this bastard, he was furious and kicked him several times.
"Why did you bring this bastard here, daughter?"
Mr. Mo was a little worried. Could his daughter really be so blind as to fall for such a scoundrel?
He said he wanted to come and discuss some things with his father, and he believed his father would forgive his behavior.
He wanted to control me, to force me into marriage, so I would have no choice but to marry him.
Mo Yan's words were very direct, which made Wang Meng's eyes widen. He didn't expect Mo Yan to say it so directly, without worrying about being misunderstood at all.
"What?"
Mo's father had a terrible temper; he beat him half to death and even locked him up in jail.
On the last day, Mo Yan looked at everyone.
"Thank you all for coming here. I've had a great time with you all these past few days. Yuncheng is a wonderful city, and I hope you can experience its beauty."
Next, let's begin!
The magistrate and his friend had been watching the whole time, and the friend even spoke up. "I've heard a lot about this young lady these past few days. To be honest, if my martial arts skills weren't so bad, I would have wanted to go up there myself."
The magistrate knew perfectly well why his friend had said that. He glared at his friend and said, "Alright, what does this have to do with you?"
"You really don't want to give it a try?"
He could see that his eyes had been fixed on Mo Yan for the past few days, never leaving her for a moment, and he even showed signs of worry.
"I won't go. I believe Miss Mo Yan will definitely succeed."
You don't need to say anything more; there's no future for us.
The magistrate knew very well what he wanted, and also knew what he couldn't do.
A fleeting attraction wasn't enough for him to give up everything, nor was it enough for him to disregard the safety of his family. He wasn't just himself; he only needed to be a good county magistrate.
He can just watch from the sidelines.
In the end, Mo Yan was clearly a little tired, and the magistrate's heart was in his throat the whole time, as if she had escaped unscathed.
Mo Yan smiled and said, "I probably won't be able to get married in this lifetime, but that's okay. My father said he's willing to support me for the rest of my life. Is Yun Cheng willing to do the same?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
In the end, Mo Yan happily talked with everyone for a long time before going back.
This martial arts contest for a husband brought a lot of traffic to Yuncheng, and many businesses made money. Mo Yan thought that she could actually hold a contest for a husband once a year; it didn't matter to her, hahaha…
If it's not too conspicuous, two times wouldn't be a problem either.
...
On the other side, Wang Meng had been locked up for a day and a night. During this time, he was in great pain. He never thought that he would be locked up in prison one day. This was an insult to him.
He made up his mind that if he had the chance in the future, he would make Mo Yan and her father taste the same way. He would not let them get away with it, absolutely not!
He waited and waited, and finally, his father appeared.
Upon seeing Mo's father appear, his expression immediately changed.
"Uncle, listen to me, I can explain this, I really can explain it. Just give me a chance, and I can definitely explain the current situation."
I think we can have a good talk. Even if we can't become in-laws, we can still cooperate.
Wang Meng quickly spoke up, remembering the purpose of his visit.
Seeing that Mo's father did not speak, he continued, "Uncle, I came here with my sincere intentions. You know that our country is in dire straits, torn apart."
The situation is tense everywhere right now, and you need to make a decision about who to ally with.
My marriage was arranged by the Emperor himself, and I had no chance to resist.
After learning that you were going to hold a martial arts contest to find a husband, I quickly resolved the issue. I truly showed my sincerity, was willing to participate in the contest, and was even more willing to marry into your family.
I believe that marrying into the family is a sign of my sincerity.
No matter where I go in the future, no matter whether I can reach that position or not, I will always regard Mo Yan as the most important person. I can even step back from her.
Among the various factions, my advantage is the most obvious. I am highly favored by the Emperor, and now that the Emperor is bewitched by a seductive concubine, it is natural for us to purge the court of corrupt officials.
Wang Meng talked to Mo's father for a long time, about the future, about his plans, about the people he owned, and about what he could give Mo's father if they cooperated.
"I am willing to let Mo Yan become the Empress!"
"How dare you!" Mo's father said after he finished speaking. "You are plotting a rebellion! The Emperor is still alive, and you want to rebel? This is utterly treasonous! I will take you to the capital right now!"
Lord Wang, Lord Yang, did you both hear that clearly?
The reason why Mo's father didn't say a word just now was so that the two adults could hear everything clearly.
They came from the capital and had always been royalists. They believed that the current situation was due to too many people harboring rebellious intentions, and that dealing with them would solve everything.
They came here to see what Mo's father was up to, but they ended up capturing Wang Meng instead.
The appearance of the two adults made Wang Meng's face turn pale instantly.
"You plotted against me? Even if I harbored malicious intentions, what about you? Why did you hold a martial arts contest to find a husband for your daughter?"
"Didn't you want to find a force to cooperate with?"
