Chapter 124 It’s better not to be disappointed
The prince narrowed his eyes and asked, "Huai Qing, are you talking about Concubine Feng and the others?"
Mo Huaiqing nodded, looked at Mo Yunzhu and said, "Sister, I want to go home."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are the Crown Prince's person now. Unless the Crown Prince divorces you, you cannot return home. Crown Prince, I didn't expect that my sister would suffer so much injustice from you." Mo Yunzhu's tone was not very good.
Jun Xianhe said anxiously, "Yunzhu, don't misunderstand me. I was not in good health before and did not go to the backyard to see those women. I didn't know that Huaiqing was bullied. Huaiqing, who bullied you? Tell me!"
Mo Huaiqing rolled his eyes a few times and glanced at Mo Yunzhu, who nodded.
"Not only Concubine Feng, but also other concubines. They said that after I entered the palace, the prince has never come to my courtyard. I have fallen out of favor, so they make things difficult for me. Wuwu..."
Mo Yunzhu raised her eyebrows, thinking that Mo Huaiqing's personality was not such that she would be bullied so harshly. It seemed that she was taking advantage of her presence to seize some power in the backyard.
"I didn't go to their place either." The prince said immediately.
"But, but Concubine Feng said that the Empress hates me..." Mo Huaiqing's words made Mo Yunzhu happy. As expected, the woman took out all the anger she got from her on Mo Huaiqing.
"It seems that my sister has harmed you. The Empress has been displeased with me recently. Sigh." Mo Yunzhu often sighed, "Before I was in the palace, the Emperor gave me a lot of things. I heard that there were rumors in the harem. The Empress may have misunderstood me."
"What?" The prince was a little confused as it was the first time he heard these things, but his brows suddenly frowned.
"Alas, I can't really explain it. Anyway, the Empress doesn't like me now, so how can she be nice to my second sister? Second sister, are there any of the Empress's people in the backyard?"
"Concubine Feng was given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by the Empress. She is so abominable. She beat me and stabbed me with a needle before." Mo Huaiqing pulled up his sleeves and found bruises on his arms.
"Oh my god, how can this be!" Mo Yunzhu stood up angrily, "Prince, you promised Yunzhu that you would treat Huaiqing well, look..."
Junjun Xianhe was dumbfounded, but when he saw Mo Yunzhu was angry, he became a little anxious.
"Yunzhu, don't be angry. Listen to my explanation. I really didn't know about this. But don't worry, I will punish those ungrateful people later. Huaiqing, you can move here later."
Mo Huaiqing was immediately delighted and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Big Sister."
"Your Highness, I know that what happened between us makes you very sad, but there are too many things you have to do. I only have one sister. If you still have me in your heart, please be nicer to Huaiqing." Mo Yunzhu's eyes were red.
"Yun Zhu, don't be sad. I know. I will treat Huai Qing well. Don't cry."
The prince had indeed forgotten the previous grudge between them. He only knew that Mo Yunzhu still had him in her heart. He was happier about that than anything else, so how could he think about the unhappy things in the past?
Mo Huaiqing lowered his eyelids and remained silent, but his hands were clenched into fists under his sleeves.
Mo Yunzhu felt that it was almost done, so she looked up and said, "The Queen must hate me now and will take it out on Huai Qing. Your Highness, please help me take good care of Huai Qing, okay?"
"Yunzhu, what are you talking about? Huaiqing is also my concubine. I will take good care of her. You, you should visit her often." The prince looked at Mo Yunzhu with heartache and some extravagant hopes.
After expressing her gratitude, Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. Let Huaiqing see me off."
"Okay, Huaiqing, go and see Yunzhu off." When the prince saw her agree, he smiled happily like a chrysanthemum.
"Yes, Your Highness." Mo Huaiqing looked very cautious, but in fact he felt sour and cold in his heart.
On the way, Mo Yunzhu grabbed Mo Huaiqing's arm and said coldly: "What about the methods you used to deal with me before! You can't even deal with the prince's backyard, how can you become the crown princess! You should know that if you don't live up to your expectations, the queen will be the first to take action against you!"
Mo Huaiqing was frightened by Mo Yunzhu. Her sister was not like this before. Why did her eyes suddenly become so cold and the way she looked at her changed?
"Mo Huaiqing, if it weren't for my mother, I wouldn't care about you at all, but you will never be my opponent. If you are capable and don't admit defeat, you should deal with the prince. Only then can you deal with the queen who bullies you. Otherwise, I will always look down on you! My mother will also be very disappointed!"
After saying that, Mo Yunzhu shook off her hand and left.
Mo Huaiqing stood on the road in a daze, but slowly, a kind of resentment and unwillingness emerged in her.
She is now the prince's person, which is better than Mo Yunzhu being the crippled person of Prince Lan. Mo Yunzhu is right, she can still climb up and cannot be bullied because of fear.
Thinking of this, she took a breath and did not go back to the backyard, but went directly to the prince. From today on, she had to cheer up. What about being a concubine? Since the prince promised Mo Yunzhu that he would treat her well, she just got up.
She can't lose to Mo Yunzhu!
At this moment, Mo Yunzhu was in the carriage returning to the general's mansion with a smile on her lips.
She hoped that Mo Huaiqing wouldn't let her down too much.
After returning home, his father called him. In the study, Mo Tiancheng had a heavy face.
"Dad." Mo Yunzhu's heart skipped a beat when she saw her father's face.
"Yunzhu, Dad asked someone to follow Chief Steward Fan, and it turns out he went to look for Master Zhang Guangnian. Now Chief Steward Fan knows that twenty of the Princess' thirty secret guards have died and ten are on the run, so he is sending people to search everywhere."
"Can they still find the person?" Mo Yunzhu frowned.
"Do you know who Chief Steward Fan met on his way back to the palace?"
Mo Yunzhu shook her head, and Mo Tiancheng said, "Prince Deqing, Prince Deqing invited Manager Fan to get on the carriage, and he stayed in the carriage for a while before getting off."
"Dad, do you know whether the retired emperor gave Prince Deqing death warriors?" Mo Yunzhu asked.
"Yes, Prince Deqing is the Queen Mother's biological son. The Emperor Emeritus has a good relationship with the Queen Mother. There must be death squads to protect Prince Deqing. The Princess has them, so Prince Deqing must have them too. I estimate there are more than 30 of them."
"Does the Emperor know?"
"You should know, but the emperor can't take back the assassins sent by the emperor. Commander Zhang knows this best. What Dad can't figure out now is why Prince Deqing wants to find Eunuch Fan? Eunuch Fan controls the assassins in the hands of the emperor. Dad always feels that something is going to happen, but he can't figure it out all of a sudden."
Mo Yunzhu's heart skipped a beat, and then he said in a low voice: "Dad, do you think Prince Deqing will rebel?"
"What?" Mo Tiancheng was startled, then shook his head and said, "No way, even if there are assassins, it's like an egg hitting a rock."
"But how do you know how many cards Prince Deqing has?" Mo Yunzhu thought of what Prince Deqing said about the princess playing a trick on him in order to get his secrets.
The low-key Prince Deqing was really an inconspicuous existence before, but as soon as the Queen Mother left, he seemed to be emerging.
Mo Tiancheng looked into Mo Yunzhu's eyes and nodded quickly, "We have always ignored Prince Deqing. Yunzhu, do you think we should help Prince Lan?"
"Dad, we still need to observe more, there is no rush. By the way, Prince Lan's poison has been cleared." Mo Yunzhu grinned at the thought.
