The Great Planned Marriage: Becoming A Splendid Princess Chapter 38 King Rui Held Bitter Tears

In mid-August, the moon has gradually become round. The bright moonlight was poured on the man's strong body, looking hazy and mysterious.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue looked at him but couldn't help frowning, "Mo Junyang? Why are you here?"

Even in summer, it was still a bit cold at night. Mo Junyang had just become better from the serious illness and he rushed out at night. Did he try to be ill again?

Mo Junyang turned to s.h.i.+ Qingxue, smiled mildly, and ridiculed, "What? Why don't you call me Brother Yang this time?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was reminded that she acted weak to beg Mo Junyang to do her a favor in Xiangyue Pavilion, and her face blushed. Fortunately, it was dark at night, and he couldn't see her face clearly.

She replied in awkward, "There should be distance between men and women. You are King Rui's eldest son, so it's more proper that I should call you by your honorable appellation."

These were almost the same words as those when Mo Junyang slighted over s.h.i.+ Baojin.

Even though s.h.i.+ Qingxue answered like this out of embarra.s.sment, Mo Junyang was still upset in his heart.

He smiled more and more brightly, approached step by step, until he stood in front of s.h.i.+ Qingxue, he lowered his voice and asked, "It was not such an att.i.tude when you begged me before. Xue, you are ready to kick down the ladder?"

"Of course not!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue hurriedly denied, unwilling to make Mo Junyang think of her in this way.

But when she looked up, she met with Mo Junyang's smiling face, then she realized that he was just joking.

She was suddenly a little bit annoyed. She glared at him and was about to be mad, when she heard the man sighing, "Well, you have just said the word "beg" to me, and now you don't confess it. Poor me!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue had never seen such shameless Mo Junyang, and she was choked with her scolding words and couldn't say a word.

However, this man pretended quite well, and said in an upset and disappointed tone, "Nowadays, it turns out to be that you can beg one person with only several words and then rest a.s.sured. You are really lucky!"

She knew that he was kidding her, but s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't even say a word to argue, and she also felt guilty, as if she really had done something that she became irresponsible once the favor was done.

She was really unable to deal with Mo Junyang who acted like this.

"What do you want?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue pouted her mouth and asked reluctantly.

Mo Junyang raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It's not a big deal. I just want to ask you do me a small favor."

"Well?" When she heard that Mo Junyang, who was capable of everything, had something to beg her, s.h.i.+ Qingxue turned her big eyes brighter, and she asked a little eagerly, "What's the matter. Say it!"

Maybe because the two people missed each other in her previous life, or maybe because she accidentally figured Mo Junyang's affection to her, s.h.i.+ Qingxue always felt herself like a despicable thief in front of this man, who had stolen something that didn't belong to her but couldn't give it back, and she could only keep it with guilt.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue's emotional hurt in the last life made her care more about the true love. However, she couldn't give him anything in return for his true love, and she even couldn't be sure whether this man in front of her was still fond of her as he was in the previous life.

This contradiction made her unable to dodge or avoid, so she had to stay in this dilemma.

At this moment, she heard that this man needed her help, of course she was overjoyed. She wished the man hurriedly said a difficult problem and she solved it for him as a return to him!

"Hurry up." s.h.i.+ Qingxue urged again, and her eyes were bright and sparkling.

Mo Junyang knew s.h.i.+ Qingxue's subtle and complicated thoughts so well. At this time, he was only smiling in his heart and pretending to be slightly depressed on his face. Then he started to complain s.h.i.+ Baojin's disturbing him these days to s.h.i.+ Qingxue.

It turned out that since s.h.i.+ Baojin was driven out of the Langyue Pavilion by Mo Junyang last time, she didn't give up. Moreover, she started to hara.s.s Mo Junyang even more often.

At the beginning, she acted pure and innocent. Later, she became extremely unrestrained and s.l.u.tty.

The last time s.h.i.+ Baojin even dared to wear just a light pink veil and ran to Mo Junyang's room. If it wasn't that Mo Junyang happened not to be in the Langyue Pavilion, who knew what was going to happen?

Even though Mo Junyang was not afraid of being hara.s.sed by others, he didn't want to cause trouble in the s.h.i.+ Family, so he had to wander outside all day and night, and would not return to the Langyue Pavilion until the time to go to bed!

The last point was completely to create a chance to meet s.h.i.+ Qingxue, but he didn't have to say this thought out.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was astonished. She didn't expect that Mo Junyang, who had chopped others' heads off and killed the whole family of others in the previous life, would be stuck in such an awkward situation, and she almost laughed out.

However, it was not really nice of her if she ignored his disappointment and laughed out just because his experience was too hilarious. It was immoral.

But what if she really wanted to laugh?

"So, then, it seems that Baojin really loves you!" s.h.i.+ Qingxue pursed her lips tightly and said without emotions, trying to make her tone sounded not like ridicule.

But the man still narrowed his eyes and asked insidiously at last, "Is it funny?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue didn't hold back this time and laughed out loudly, "I'm, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it, but I really didn't expect it!"

It didn't happen in the previous life!

After she was abandoned by Mo Junhao, s.h.i.+ Baojin became the new Empress. Not only did she deal with the s.h.i.+ Army supporting Duke s.h.i.+'s Family well, but she also raised the Third Master s.h.i.+ Juncai, who had taken away the power to host the s.h.i.+ Family. But Mo Junyang was not involved in these matters.

"Isn't Baojin into Fourth Prince? How could it..." s.h.i.+ Qingxue tried her best to ask as seriously as possible, but the smile on her face made it more like that she was saying, "Look! It was all because you were being seductively dressed that s.h.i.+ Baojin would hara.s.s you and not let you go."

Mo Junyang was speechless for a while. He told this just in order to create the opportunity to get along with Qingxue, but not to make her laugh at him.

He deliberately said in an insidious tone, "But that's the daughter in the s.h.i.+ Family. If she really does some humiliating things, it's not me who should be dragged down. So, Xue, are you still planning to stand by?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue quickly waved her hands, and her eyes were wide open, as if she was trying to make him see her sincerity, "I'm not standing by. But isn't it easy for you to avoid her? Why don't you return to your house? Couldn't Baojin chase after you to the house of King Rui?"

Speaking of this, she asked confusedly, "Your illness isn't really..."

Afraid of being overheard, Qingxue said, "Isn't it really that serious? You have been treated for almost a month, but why aren't you even better?"

For nearly a month, Mo Junyang had lived in Langyue Pavilion.

Langyue Pavilion was very close to Luotong Boudoir, and there was only a small garden in between. So every time she went back to Luotong Boudoir, she needed to pa.s.s Langyue Pavilion. But during this period, Dong Hui happened to make Qingxue stay in the yard of First Master's Family to teach her how to manage ch.o.r.es, so the two barely met.

It was really like the saying that no one could predict!

If Mo Junyang didn't wait here on purpose, the two still wouldn't meet each other.

Of course, Qingxue didn't know about this. She was just worried that Mo Junyang really got ill.

She didn't want him to be in trouble.

Facing Qingxue's concerns, Mo Junyang would definitely not say that he was pretending. Instead, he pretended to cough, making Qingxue even more worried in her eyes. Then he said with satisfaction, "It doesn't matter. I just feel weak. It will be better after I rest for a while!"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was relieved, but was even more puzzled, "Then why don't you go back to the house of King Rui?"

How could the environment for recuperation of the house of Duke s.h.i.+ better than the house of King Rui?

That was because there was no s.h.i.+ Qingxue in the house of King Rui!

King Rui held bitter tears.

"Is Xue so unwilling that I stay in the house of Duke s.h.i.+?" Mo Junyang's eyes suddenly dimmed, making s.h.i.+ Qingxue feel as if she had done something really terrible.

She quickly waved her hands, "Of course not, I'm just afraid that you're not living well here! Now that my father is away, the family is so messy!"

Mo Junyang reluctantly raised the corner of his mouth, but he still couldn't smile, and he had to give in. He sighed with an extremely bitter voice, "What is the big deal of the matters in the s.h.i.+ Family. You don't know that the house of King Rui is really..."

Mo Junyang seemed to realize that domestic shame should not be made public and stopped suddenly.

But at this time, silence was better than sound, and this pause made s.h.i.+ Qingxue think a lot about it.

For example, King Rui seemed to be very nice to this only son, but actually he had an illegitimate son who was more beloved.

For example, although King Rui didn't appoint another Queen Rui any more, but he had other favored concubines, and they were in conflict with Mo Junyang.

For example, King Rui had already known Mo Junyang's shocking secret...

Once s.h.i.+ Qingxue suspected that Mo Junyang was not living a good life in King Rui's house, she felt even more guilty, and said hurriedly, "Since you don't dislike the house of Duke s.h.i.+, you can stay as long as you want to!"

"Okay." Mo Junyang still smiled, but looked at s.h.i.+ Qingxue with the unconscious heat.

"Uh..." s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't bear it. She looked away and begged in a low voice, "Could you please not look at me like this?"

Not knowing whether this man was born to like looking at others like this, even though she had repeatedly suggested that Mo Junyang had no other meaning, she still couldn't get used to such sight of him.

Only then did Mo Junyang realize that he was presumptuous, and was about to apologize, when he suddenly remembered that if it were s.h.i.+ Qingxue in the past, she would probably slap on him resentfully and not allow him to look at her like this any more, but at this moment...

Once he understood the meaning of this change, Mo Junyang couldn't help smiling again.

But in order not to scare s.h.i.+ Qingxue away, he still restrained his sight and changed the topic, "Let's get back to the serious business. As for Third Lady in your family, do you have any way to handle?"

"This!" Qingxue was also distressed when it came to s.h.i.+ Baojin.

It wasn't that she was unwilling to remove those evil people in Third Master's Family. But s.h.i.+ Baojin actually didn't do anything, so it was hard to remove her!

If Zhou Ruyu knew that her daughter was struggling to climb up so hard, she might even help her, like catching them two in bed...

s.h.i.+ Qingxue wrinkled her small face and said in distress, "You should hide first!"

At this time, s.h.i.+ Qingxue wished her father s.h.i.+ Junhe at home so desperately. If her father were here, how would Third Master's Family dare to bully First Master's Family? And even her grandmother wouldn't target at Dong Hui so openly.

"Or you could hang out more during the day?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue knew that Mo Junyang was living in the house of the s.h.i.+ Family to avoid the scourge in the house of King Rui. Then it should be fine if he hung out sometimes during the daytime. Couldn't s.h.i.+ Baojin follow him out?
