The atmosphere between the two was weird.
In the past, the two of them would at least maintain a superficial friendship, but now the emperor seemed to want to tear that layer of window paper.
The queen noticed this and felt cold in her heart.
It doesn't matter, he can do whatever he wants, she is always there for him.
Since he was going to tear through this precarious window paper, she didn't need to worry about anything.
It's time to change the throne.
The queen was secretly planning in her mind, with a cold look in her eyes.
"Prince Zhao, the Second Prince, the Second Prince's Consort, and the Prince."
The eunuch's sharp shout was heard, and no one thought much of it at first. But when they heard the Second Prince and his wife, they couldn't help but stare with shock in their eyes, and hurriedly looked towards the entrance.
Prince Zhao walked in front, and Mo Bai walked in the middle, holding Su Qingyue's hand.
Mo Yu walked at the back
Everyone's eyes fell on the Mo Bai couple, their eyes full of amazement.
The emperor and the empress, who were sitting in high positions, looked past Zhao and fell on Mo Bai and Su Qingyue.
The two of them walked slowly with an elegant gait, like beautiful women walking out of a painting, pleasing to the eye.
"I pay my respects to your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"
The four of them saluted together, and the emperor stood up hastily, trembling as he walked toward the steps.
Without the emperor's order, no one got up.
He took two steps up the stairs, his eyes fixed on Mo Bai and never left.
"Get up, get up quickly."
The emperor reached out to support Mo Bai, and Mo Bai went to support Su Qingyue.
Su Qingyue was pregnant, but the emperor was still hesitant to announce it, which made Mo Bai a little unhappy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Mo Bai's tone was indifferent, without any sense of intimacy.
The emperor didn't care and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years. You look more and more like your mother."
The emperor looked at his son's face, as if he was looking at the woman he loved in the past.
Those distant memories came to his mind, and his eyes were filled with nostalgia.
Prince Zhao and Mo Yu were still kneeling.
But the emperor paid no attention to them.
The queen, who was in a high position, was so angry when she saw this.
Seeing Mo Bai, he was so happy that he ignored everything and didn't care about anything?
The queen was filled with jealousy. She couldn't help but pinch the hem of her skirt tightly with her hands on her knees, as if she wanted to use all her strength to tear the hem of her skirt. She was so angry that she had difficulty breathing.
"Have you been doing well these years?"
The emperor looked at Mo Bai with eyes full of love and gentleness, with only worry and longing in his eyes.
Mo Yu had never seen him like this before.
Mo Bai looked at the two people who were still kneeling on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Sixth Uncle and Brother are still kneeling!"
The emperor noticed this and said hurriedly, "Get up, everyone, get up quickly!"
King Zhao put away the emotion in his eyes, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, since Mo Bai came back, you can no longer look down on others. I can't help but feel jealous."
The emperor smiled happily, and the wrinkles on his face became deeper.
"I watch you guys every day, except for the second one. He hasn't been by my side for more than ten years. I can't even remember what he looked like when he was a child. I can only ask the painter to record his appearance at that time. I look at it occasionally and remember it."
King Zhao smiled and said, "Your Majesty loves his son so much that the heavens have been moved. Now Mo Bai has been sent back. Your Majesty can go to Guangfu Temple to fulfill his wish in the near future and pray to the heavens to bless Mo Bai with peace and happiness."
The emperor was very moved by this suggestion.
He nodded immediately, "Okay, that's the arrangement."
"I'll leave this matter to you to arrange. I'll go there in person on a suitable day."
The emperor's favor for Mo Bai is too obvious.
Everyone can see it at a glance.
The ministers looked at these men and felt that the weather in Xia Kingdom was about to change.
After giving orders to Zhaowo, the emperor called the fifth and sixth princes.
"Old Master, Old Five, Old Six, this is your second brother, Mo Bai, the eldest brother, Ruo. In the future, you must respect and obey your second brother."
The emperor's words surprised several princes!
This level of favor is truly unprecedented. No one in the palace has ever been so favored by the emperor.
Several people couldn't help but feel jealous of Mo Bai.
But in front of the emperor, they were naturally very well behaved and nodded and said yes repeatedly.
"Second brother, it's just right that you came back today. While everyone is here, you can restore your identity."
Mo Bai nodded slightly and didn't say much.
The emperor looked at the child that the two were holding, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"This must be Qingyue, right? She is indeed well-educated, gentle and virtuous, just as the second brother described in the letter."
The emperor looked at Su Qingyue's appearance and liked her very much, and couldn't help but praise her.
Su Qingyue smiled gently, and said softly, "My daughter-in-law greets the emperor."
The emperor smiled happily and stretched out his hand to his personal eunuch, who immediately handed him a box.
The emperor took the box and handed it to Su Qingyue, saying kindly, "This is the gift from the emperor to you. This is just one of them. I will have the others delivered to your palace later. This one was left by the second mother. Now that she is gone, I, the emperor, will give it to you."
Su Qingyue looked at Mo Bai, asking him with her eyes whether he would accept it.
Mo Bai nodded slightly at her, and she stopped talking.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor smiled happily. Seeing his son and daughter-in-law being so loving and affectionate, he felt at peace and relieved.
"Come, follow the emperor and sit up there. The emperor will introduce you to a family."
The emperor looked at Mo Bai and Su Qingyue.
On the high seat, the imperial attendants brought in new tables and stools and placed them at the head of the throne, which were slightly higher than those of all the ministers.
Everyone was very surprised to see this, and felt more and more that the situation in Xia Country was about to change.
The queen endured it all the time, watching the Mo Bai couple come up. She thought they were coming to greet her, but she didn't expect them to ignore her and just sit down.
The queen clenched her fists in anger, feeling secretly resentful.
"What? You think the Imperial Palace doesn't exist? You are so rude. You are really from outside. You have no manners at all. You are so disrespectful to the royal family. It seems that we should find a teacher to teach you two a lesson."
The Queen's tone was very harsh. Everyone was so frightened that they held their breath, not daring to breathe, and watched it all in silence.
Mo Bai was about to speak, but the emperor spoke first.
"Queen, the second son has just returned, so it is normal for him to be negligent for a while. If you are angry, then I will apologize to you on his behalf."
"But you didn't tell him who just returned. You didn't say a word for half a day. Do they know who you are?"
The emperor's favoritism was so obvious that the queen was so angry that her face turned pale.
"Your Majesty's partiality may make the children unhappy. Whether for the sake of the king or for the sake of children, Your Majesty should treat them fairly."
The Queen's blatant questioning made everyone dare not even utter a word.
They were afraid that the emperor's wrath would be directed at them at any moment.
The queen just looked at the emperor quietly, waiting for his answer.
The emperor's face was gloomy, and his eyes fell quietly on the queen. After a moment, he said calmly: "The queen is the mother of the country, and the prince is also your child. Do you treat him equally?"
The emperor's question made the queen look unhappy.
The queen was famous for her protectiveness, and no one dared to treat the prince lightly under her protection.
"Your Majesty, Mother, the return of our Second Brother is a happy event from heaven, and we should all be happy. Our Second Brother has been living away from home since he was young, and he must have suffered a lot of grievances. Now that he has finally returned, Your Majesty and Mother should compensate him well, and it is normal to show some favoritism."
Mo Yu spoke up.
