"Father won't abandon your mother." Mo Xiuyao promised. He'll only abandon you.
Mo Xiaobao said with tears in his eyes: "But just now, this auntie wanted mother to take Xiaobao away, wuwu … … little uncle said that all the women who want to talk to father alone want to be Xiaobao's stepmother. Xiaobao doesn't want a stepmother … … "Mo Xiuyao was speechless. He felt that separating Han Mingxi from Mo Xiaobao and Mo Xiaobao was definitely a wrong decision. He should have separated the five brothers of the Xu family as well. Look at what Xu Wu taught his son. He also learned a lot from Xu Qingchen, always talking about eldest uncle this way and that. If it wasn't for the fact that Mo Xiaobao often pestered Li, he suspected that Mo Xiaobao would simply follow Xu Qingchen to the Xu family. Of course, he could throw Mo Xiaobao to the Xu family now, but it was different for him as a father to throw Mo Xiaobao over and for his son to run over by himself.
"Your little uncle is right, so father won't talk to other women alone." I only want to talk to Li alone, so you shouldn't pester Li so often. That way, father will still love you.
"Xiaobao knew that father isn't a heartless person who would abandon his wife." Mo Xiaobao said with relief.
This time, Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li both had tears in their eyes. The husband and wife looked at each other. Who was the one who failed to educate their five year old son to become like this?
Mo Xiaobao didn't care that his actions had also shocked his parents. He flipped over the chair and climbed into Mo Xiuyao's arms. His tear-stained face revealed a happy and sweet smile. He said to Noble Consort Liu, whose face had turned green from anger: "Auntie, men and women shouldn't touch each other. My father won't be intimate with you alone. A man's reputation is also very important. Auntie, don't harm my father. "
Ye Li helplessly raised her hand to rub her son's little head. She turned to Noble Consort Liu and said, "The child is not sensible. Please don't blame him." Mo Xiaobao smiled and rubbed his face against his mother's heart. Although he hated his father the most, his father was his mother's. If mother still wanted father, even though he hated it, he would still accept it magnanimously. Other women want to snatch him? Humph!
Noble Consort Liu's face was cold. She knew it was impossible to talk to Mo Xiuyao alone today. He could only suppress the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, there's no harm in Miss Ye listening to it."
Ye Li smiled and nodded, indicating that she was all ears.
Noble Consort Liu waited until Mo Xiuyao stopped sleeping in Mo Xiaobao's arms before she spoke. Although it was only a short confrontation, she was really a little scared of this little mischievous boy. He had an innocent and naive little face, but every word he said made her look bad. She couldn't even think that he didn't mean it on purpose.
"Prince Ding, what do you think about the current situation in the capital?" Noble Consort Liu stared at Mo Xiuyao and asked in a low voice.
Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows and said, "I only came back to worship my ancestors. I don't plan to get involved in the affairs of the capital. Moreover, the Mohist army has no connection with the Da Chu State. I don't have a good reason to get involved. Noble Consort Liu doesn't need to ask about this. Moreover, this isn't something Noble Consort Liu should ask about. "
Shouldn't ask. These three words were undoubtedly a huge blow to Noble Consort Liu. Because it meant that Mo Xiuyao still regarded her as an ordinary harem woman. No matter how talented Mo Xiuyao was, he was still a marquis in the ancient imperial era. He definitely didn't think that men and women were equal. But he was different from ordinary men. He believed that some women were as capable as men. Therefore, he could accept them learning literature, martial arts, politics, and generals. For example, Ye Li and Princess Anxi.
But at the same time, he still thought that most women were ordinary women in the boudoir. All they needed to do was to stay in the boudoir. The former represented equal status and respect to him, while the latter represented a man's vassal.
Therefore, in Mo Xiuyao's eyes, it was natural for Ye Li to get involved in anything, and Noble Consort Liu shouldn't get involved in the affairs of the imperial court. Not because she was a harem concubine, but because she wasn't qualified. Noble Consort Liu obviously understood Mo Xiuyao's thoughts. Because of this, she was even angrier.
After a while, Noble Consort Liu gritted her teeth and said, "Prince, you should know that my son has been made the Crown Prince. Once the Emperor passes away, he will become the Emperor of the Da Chu State, and I will be the Empress Dowager of the Da Chu State. "Mo Xiuyao nodded. Of course he knew. But so what? "There are plenty of Empress Dowagers. In the Da Chu State alone, there were seven or eight Empress Dowagers. So, so what? "
So what? The Da Chu State had never had an Empress Dowager who could control the young Emperor and stir up trouble in the previous dynasty. It wasn't that they didn't want to. Most women who worked hard all their lives to sit on the Empress Dowager's throne wanted to govern from behind the curtain. But … … the Da Chu State had the Prince Ding Mansion. As long as the Prince Ding Mansion was there, there was no woman in the imperial court who could give orders. Therefore, since the founding of the Da Chu State, the Empress Dowager with the most power was the current Empress Dowager, Mo Jingqi's birth mother. Even so, she wasn't able to reach the level of power in the imperial harem of previous dynasties. One reason was because Mo Jingqi wasn't young when he ascended the throne, and Mo Jingqi couldn't tolerate the loss of power. Two was because the officials of the Da Chu State weren't used to having power in the imperial harem.
Noble Consort Liu lowered her eyes. She couldn't argue with Mo Xiuyao. Not only because she loved him, but also because she didn't have any bargaining chips to compete with him. She could only change her tone and say, "Prince Ding should know the current situation in the imperial court. Not only did Mo Jingli poison the Emperor, but he also forced the Emperor to make him the Prince Regent. Once the Emperor passes away, as the Prince Regent, Mo Jingli will definitely rule the world. At that time, the Da Chu State will become Mo Jingli's world. In this way, it won't be good for Prince Ding, right? "
Mo Xiuyao raised his eyebrows and looked at Noble Consort Liu without saying anything. Noble Consort Liu continued, "Prince Ding should know that Prince Li and you have been at odds since you were young. Because of Miss Ye, you have a grudge against him for stealing your wife. Once Prince Li has power in his hands, he will use the power of the entire country to make things difficult for the northwest. Prince Ding will have a headache. "Mo Xiuyao casually picked up the teacup and took a sip. The bitter taste of the not-so-good tea leaves made him frown. He said calmly, "Noble Consort Liu, I'm afraid you haven't discussed this with Prime Minister Liu before?" The smile on Noble Consort Liu's face froze. She asked with some confusion, "What does Prince Ding mean?"
Mo Xiuyao said, "I said that if Noble Consort Liu has nothing to do, you should stay in the Imperial Palace and not interfere with things you don't understand. If you had discussed it with Prime Minister Liu beforehand, he would have told you that no matter if it was your son or Mo Jingli who ascended the throne, they wouldn't be able to do anything. They don't have the ability to make things difficult for I! "
Noble Consort Liu's expression changed slightly. She clenched her fingers tightly and said, "Prince Ding is too confident." She didn't believe it. The northwest was only a small place. In Noble Consort Liu's eyes, the people of the Da Chu State could drown that small place with just a mouthful of saliva. But she forgot how many people of the Da Chu State were willing to spit on the Prince Ding Mansion for her.
"However, what you said is not wrong. For I, the little crown prince ascending the throne is more beneficial than Mo Jingli ascending the throne. "Mo Xiuyao looked down at the tea in his hand and said lightly.
Hearing this, Noble Consort Liu was delighted. She said with a smile, "So, Prince Ding agrees to help I?"
Mo Xiuyao looked up and glanced at Ye Li who was drinking tea silently. He asked, "Li, did I agree?" Ye Li looked up and said lightly, "I didn't hear it."
"What does Prince Ding mean?" Noble Consort Liu felt like she was being played. Even if the person playing with her was Mo Xiuyao, she still couldn't stand it. But in fact, Mo Xiuyao didn't mean to play with her. He looked at her calmly and said, "I already promised Mo Jingli that I wouldn't interfere with the affairs of the Imperial Court."
"Why?" Noble Consort Liu asked. At the same time, she was deeply disappointed. She hoped to cooperate with Mo Xiuyao. At least, she had to let Mo Xiuyao see how different she was. Mo Xiuyao would definitely realize that she was a better choice than Ye Li. "Why? Do you really not care about what you can get by cooperating with me? As long as you help me, the Prince Ding Mansion will still be the Prince Ding Mansion of the Da Chu State. You can become the next Prince Regent. You can even … "She would even help him if he wanted to become the Emperor. Compared to the Empress Dowager, she wanted to be his Empress more.
Ye Li's eyes twitched. She said lightly, "I don't know what I can get by cooperating with Noble Consort Liu, but … at least I can anger Mo Jingqi to death. Prince, right? " His favorite concubine, the birth mother of the Crown Prince, was cooperating with his most hated enemy, the enemy he feared the most. Even if Mo Jingqi didn't die of illness or poison, he would be angered to death, right?
"Miss Ye! I was talking to Prince Ding. "Noble Consort Liu said coldly. She stared at Ye Li angrily. Ye Li's expression was calm and unhurried as she replied, "Ah, this consort is also talking to His Highness. I was just giving my opinion on Noble Consort Liu's proposal for Prince to consider. Prince, right? " Mo Xiuyao smiled dotingly. He said softly, "Miss Li is very thoughtful. I's business is Li's business. There's nothing that can't be said. Besides, I can still anger Mo Jingqi to death even if I don't cooperate with the Liu Family. Miss Li, you have to believe in your husband's ability. "
"Is Prince refusing?!" Noble Consort Liu said to Mo Xiuyao. She stared fiercely at Ye Li.
Mo Xiuyao said carelessly, "I'm not refusing. I have never considered such a — — boring and time-wasting proposal."
