Chapter 458 Sending Princess Xi Away
Early the next morning, the news that Fuping was suddenly critically ill after a night's rest due to falling into the water the day before reached the palace and the prince's mansion.
When the emperor found out, he was stunned at first, then his face turned dark. When Concubine Yu found out, she cried and wanted to go see the princess. The emperor felt sorry for her for having lost a son, so he followed Concubine Yu to the princess's mansion.
At the Prince's Mansion, Shangguan Nanxing was having dinner with Su Yue. When he heard the news, Shangguan Nanxing's hand paused obviously.
"Nanxing, why is Fuping suddenly critically ill? She just fell into the water yesterday. I saw that it was not serious."
When Su Yue heard the news that Fuping was critically ill, she frowned subconsciously. She could guarantee that Fuping's sudden critical illness had absolutely nothing to do with what happened yesterday.
"They just want us to go over and catch us all in one fell swoop." Shangguan Nanxing fiddled with the food in the bowl and sneered.
"What do you mean, is Mo Jingxuan going to take action?"
When Su Yue heard Shangguan Nanxing say this, she put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at Shangguan Nanxing with wide eyes.
"Well, he wanted to trick my father and I into going to the Princess's Mansion and then catch us all in one fell swoop. But I didn't expect that he would use Fu Ping as a pretext."
Shangguan Nanxing looked at Su Yue and told her what he knew last night.
"This Mo Jingxuan is quite courageous. I just don't know whether he did this at the instruction of the Emperor of Mo Country or he wanted to do it on his own."
Su Yue lost her appetite when she said this, her brows slightly furrowed, and she spoke softly.
"No matter what, the Emperor of Mo Country definitely cannot be immune to this matter. Even if he was not involved, it is impossible that he knew nothing about it."
Shangguan Nanxing said this, then stood up, looked at Su Yue, and signaled that he was about to go over.
"Nanxing, are you sure?" Seeing Shangguan Nanxing like this, Su Yue looked up at him and asked softly.
During this period, she always knew that Nanxing was dealing with Mo Jingxuan's affairs, but she did not interfere, let alone ask about it.
This is a sign of respect and trust for him. If he insists on being superior in everything, Su Yue believes that over time, even the man who loves her the most will feel bored and helpless.
Besides, the man she was marrying was about to become the most distinguished person in Dongyou, so she would not interfere in his affairs.
"Well, I have arranged everything. Mo Jingxuan will not continue to make trouble today."
Shangguan Nanxing saw that although Su Yue was asking him, her eyes were full of trust, so he smiled gently and replied softly.
"I believe you, Nanxing. Remember to go early and come back early." After Su Yue said this, she picked up the chopsticks. It was obvious that she didn't want to get involved in this matter.
After Shangguan Nanxing heard what Su Yue said and saw her pick up the chopsticks, he felt relieved.
He thought Yue'er would ask to go with him. It was such a dangerous place. He was just thinking about how to refuse and persuade her, but he didn't expect that Yue'er actually had no intention of going at all.
"Well, Yue'er, stay home and I'll be back soon after I deal with Mo Jingxuan."
After Shangguan Nanxing finished speaking, he went out and left.
Su Yue looked at Shangguan Nanxing's departing back and gently put down the chopsticks in her hand.
"Xiao He, prepare paper and pen, let's go back to the Princess' Mansion." After Su Yue finished speaking, she stood up.
After Xiao He brought paper and pen, Su Yue finished writing a letter and then rushed to the Princess's Mansion.
I still need to go to Mo Jingxi in person.
Before, she had always wanted to send Mo Jingxi back to Mo Country as soon as possible, but Mo Jingxi was unwilling to do so. Instead, she wanted to make plans after attending Mo Jingxuan's wedding.
Now that Mo Jingxuan acted so quickly, she had to make things clear with Mo Jingxi to avoid any trouble on Mo Jingxi's side.
"Yuer, you're here. I've been so bored these past few days."
When Mo Jingxi saw Su Yue from the Princess's Mansion, she pouted and looked impatient.
Although she had a lot of fun these days, Yue'er came to her less and less often.
"Xi'er, I came here this time because I have something important to tell you. I originally wanted to hide it from you, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that given our current relationship, I shouldn't and can't hide it from you."
Su Yue noticed that Mo Jingxi was very intimate with her as soon as he saw her. After some hesitation, she decided to say it out loud.
"Yuer, what's the matter? Why is it so serious?" Mo Jingxi looked at Su Yue's serious expression and also frowned and asked cautiously.
"Mo Jingxi, he is planning a rebellion today. He is going to the Princess's Mansion and wants to capture the Emperor and the Crown Prince in one fell swoop."
Su Yue said it directly. After more than a month of getting along, Su Yue had already realized that Mo Jingxi was an extremely upright girl with a very pure mind. This was also the reason why Su Yue chose to tell Mo Jingxi.
"What? Is there something wrong with Fourth Brother's brain? He just got married, how could he do such a thing?"
After hearing Su Yue's words, Mo Jingxi subconsciously began to scold the Fourth Prince, and his expression and behavior showed a sense of disappointment.
"He wants to completely destroy Dongyou by himself." Su Yue felt relieved when she saw Mo Jingxi like this. Since Mo Jingxi was on their side, it would naturally be easier to deal with the following matters.
"Yuer, you actually told me, the princess of the Mo Kingdom, about such a big thing, but what can I do?"
When Mo Jingxi heard Su Yue's words, he looked directly at Su Yue and asked with certainty.
His fourth brother had done something so outrageous, and given his status, he would certainly suffer together with his elder brother. However, Su Yue in front of him did not hide anything, but told him directly that he must have done something.
"Xi'er, you guessed right. I don't know whether the Emperor of Mo Country knows about the Fourth Prince's actions or whether he secretly approves of it.
But it is obvious that Mo Jingxuan will definitely fail this time. The emperor of Dongyou will definitely punish Mo Jingxuan. I hope you will return to Mo Kingdom now.
First, I couldn't bear to see you implicated by Mo Jingxuan, so I tried my best to protect your safety. Secondly, I hope that when you return, you can give this letter to the Emperor of Mo Kingdom, speak more for Dongyou, and do your best to stabilize the relationship between the two countries.
I think we will be good friends and sisters forever, and not become enemies because of the relationship between our two countries. ”
When Su Yue said this, she took out the letter she had prepared long ago and stuffed it into Mo Jingxi's hand.
"Yuer, I will listen to you. I will go back to Mo Country now. Father will definitely not know about Fourth Brother's matter."
Mo Jingxi took the letter handed over by Su Yue, then followed Su Yue out of the gate of the Princess's Mansion, got on the carriage that had been prepared long ago and left.
"Mo Jingxi, I hope you can deliver the letter safely to the Emperor of Mo Country."
Su Yue looked at the carriage going away and prayed silently in her heart.
