Mo Rongzhan looked at his brother, who was talking with confidence and excitement. It was the first time he had seen such a confident expression on Ah Yi's face. In the past, Ah Yi was probably used to being bullied in the palace. He was always a little timid and wanted to rely on his brother for everything. He did not dare to really go out and meet the children of the aristocratic families.
Today, he actually said that he wanted to hold a banquet and invite those people to participate, which surprised Mo Rongzhan.
"Why do you suddenly want to hold a banquet?" He asked in a deep voice. Someone must have reminded his brother, otherwise he would not have thought of it.
"Yao Yao said so." Mo Rongyi did not hesitate to sell Ye Zhen out.
Mo Rongzhan was slightly startled, "Lu Yaoyao? What did she tell you? "
"She said …" Mo Rongyi told Mo Rongzhan everything Ye Zhen had told him. As he spoke, he carefully looked at Mo Rongzhan's face, for fear of making him angry.
How could she say such a thing?! Mo Rongzhan was a little surprised. He thought that Lu Yaoyao had lived in the border town since childhood. Even if she was amazing in many aspects, she should not know as well as the women in the capital. It seemed that … she had impressed him again.
"Do you still want to play polo with Prince Shun?" Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yao Yao said that we can beat Prince Shun." Mo Rongyi said hurriedly.
Mo Rongzhan was a little upset. Lu Yaoyao was more intimate with Ah Yi. When facing him, she never talked too much. "Then go. Leave the banquet to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. As for the invitation, you write it yourself."
"Thank you, brother!" Mo Rongyi exclaimed, beaming with joy. He had never written an invitation before. He had hosted banquets in the past, but it was always him, his mother, and a few others who quietly celebrated their birthdays. This was the first time he hosted a big banquet, so he was a little nervous.
"Yao Yao entered the palace so early, just for your matter?" Mo Rongzhan asked as if he didn't care. Although he said he didn't care, he still wanted to know about her after knowing she entered the palace.
Mo Rongyi didn't notice his brother's awkward thoughts at all. "Yao Yao just went to see my mother. She should be going to ask about her eldest brother. But she is now teaching my reading companions how to play polo on the polo field."
"She can play polo?" Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I don't know …" Mo Rongyi couldn't sit still anymore. "Imperial Brother, let me."
Mo Rongzhan blurted out without thinking, "We will go with you."
"Brother, weren't you very good at playing polo?" Mo Rongyi asked excitedly. "Can you teach me?"
"You can't even ride a horse well, and you're thinking of playing polo?" Mo Rongzhan asked faintly. "You should learn how to ride a horse first."
"Oh." Mo Rongyi lowered his head in disappointment.
The two brothers arrived at the polo field one after the other. In the huge polo field, there was only one person galloping on the horse. A few boys at the side stared at her with their eyes wide open. Even the surrounding guards were looking at the polo field.
Ye Zhen wore a red, narrow-sleeved racing outfit, which decorated her figure, making her look slender and tall. Her skin was as white as porcelain. She held a cue stick in her hand, which was several feet long and shaped like a crescent moon. She galloped quickly on the polo field. Suddenly, she grabbed the reins in one hand and the cue stick in the other. Her body almost left the saddle and she hit the Seven Treasures Ball into the gate.
Jade Reins Thousand Gold Horse, Seven Treasure Ball Engraved. As fast as lightning, Fu Fen felt the flow of stars.
Under the sun, she wore a carefree smile. Every shot was accurate and fast. Her horse skills were even more stable than other men's.
Mo Rongzhan seemed to hear his heart beating faster. Thump! Thump! Thump! He looked at her with burning eyes, unable to take his eyes off her.
"Good!" Mo Rongyi clapped his hands and shouted, "Yao Yao, you can play polo!"
When Ye Zhen heard Mo Rongyi's voice, she turned her head and looked over. At a glance, she saw the man beside Mo Rongyi. Startled, she immediately took back the cue stick, slowed down, jumped off the horse, and said to the boys who were already staring at her, "See? This is polo. What you did just now is like you haven't eaten. Practice well."
Mo Rongyi ran over and took Ye Zhen's hand. "Yao Yao, how can you be a girl? If you were a man, you would be able to play Prince Shun for us."
Ye Zhen laughed and pushed his hand away. "You can rest assured that there are many people who are better than me. I will write down the candidates for you tomorrow. Whether you can let them help you or not depends on your ability."
"How do you know who is good at playing polo?" Mo Rongzhan's deep voice came from behind her.
Ye Zhen's shoulders stiffened. Oh no! She forgot that she was Lu Yaoyao now, not Ye Zhen. Lu Yaoyao had lived in the capital for less than a year. How could she know so much about the situation of those aristocratic families?
Mo Rongyi did not notice her strangeness and said excitedly, "Yao Yao, my imperial brother is also very good at playing polo."
"Yi, go and practice riding. Let … Yao Yao rest." Mo Rongzhan said faintly to Mo Rongyi.
Mo Rongyi did not doubt him and took his little friend to practice horsemanship.
"Your Majesty, this subject's daughter will retire first." Ye Zhen did not want to face Mo Rongzhan's suspicion alone.
"You haven't answered my question yet." Mo Rongzhan looked at the sweat sliding down her white cheeks and resisted the urge to wipe it for her.
Ye Zhen looked up at him and pretended to forget what he had asked. "Your Majesty, what do you want to know?"
A smile appeared at the corner of Mo Rongzhan's mouth. "I heard from Yi that it was you who gave him the idea to set up a banquet to invite the aristocratic children?"
"I just think that the little prince should know more people. It is the best way to set up a banquet on his birthday." Ye Zhen whispered.
"Then how do you know who can help Yi?" Mo Rongzhan asked again.
Ye Zhen bit her lip. "I don't know."
She was always guarded and vigilant in front of him. He didn't know how many of her words were true. For the first time, Mo Rongzhan felt a little defeated. Did he scare her before?
"Go change your clothes and come to the Imperial Garden." Mo Rongzhan whispered.
Ye Zhen looked up at him and asked with a frown, "I don't know what else Your Majesty wants me to do. It is better to say it here."
"Why don't you call me Imperial Brother?" Mo Rongzhan asked, amused. She was already the legitimate Princess of Furong, but she refused to call him Imperial Brother. Although it was awkward for him to hear it, if becoming a princess could make her lower her guard, he could temporarily treat her as a younger sister.
He had plenty of ways to change her identity as a princess.
"Didn't you tell me not to call you Imperial Brother?" Ye Zhen asked.
Mo Rongzhan choked and his eyes darkened. "Go change your clothes, I will wait for you in the Imperial Garden!"
"I still have something to do." Ye Zhen was afraid to be alone with him.
"Don't you want to know about your eldest brother?" Mo Rongzhan had to throw out the bait.
She didn't care if Lu Lingzhi died! However, she wanted to know about Tian Jiu. "Well, I'll go change my clothes first."
