Mo Yu parted the curtain in front of her and walked out. Looking at that elegant, cute, and noble little girl, she smiled and said, "Your Highness, I don't really understand what you mean."
Luoluo did not smile. Her eyes were still very bright as she said, "You know what I mean. I want Zhexiu to return to the Orthodox Academy."
Mo Yu slightly raised her brows and pretended to be perplexed as she asked, "Wofu Zhexiu … what relationship does he have with the Orthodox Academy?"
Luoluo very seriously replied, "Zhexiu is a student of the Orthodox Academy."
Mo Yu calmly replied, "There is no record in the Bureau of Ecclesiastic Education, so no one will admit it."
This was a very direct refusal. If the Orthodox Academy had no way of proving that Zhexiu was a student, then no matter how noble Luoluo's status was, there was no reason for her to exert pressure on the Great Zhou Imperial Court.
Luoluo stared into her eyes and said, "You clearly understand that my teacher and I will definitely protect him."
Mo Yu replied, "The Imperial Court places great importance on the law. Whether Zhexiu is guilty or not will still have to be tried."
Luoluo asked, "Then have you ever thought, if Teacher comes back, how will you explain it to him?"
Hearing this, Mo Yu recalled Zhou Tong's words from before. For some reason, she felt angry and said, "Why should I explain it to Chen Changsheng? Do you think I'm afraid of him! "
Luoluo asked, "Then why don't you hurry and bring my teacher back?"
Mo Yu sneered, "The reason Chen Changsheng hasn't come back is because he wants to follow Su Li. At present, the entire world wants to kill Su Li, but this idiot insists on protecting Su Li. What does this have to do with me? What does it have to do with the Empress? If Your Highness has the ability, there is no harm in letting him clearly understand his own stupidity! "
These words were spoken very quickly, like pearls falling onto a jade plate. The clear sound never stopped, because she truly was very angry.
Angry at his stubbornness, angry at his idiocy, angry at his not cherishing his own life.
The 'him' here was naturally Chen Changsheng.
Luoluo's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Looking at her, she said, "If Teacher doesn't come back, he naturally has his reasons. If you're really worried about him, if you have the ability, bring him back."
Mo Yu became even angrier. She thought to herself, why would I be worried about Chen Changsheng's life or death? She said, "Your Highness, you should be well aware of just who is standing behind the people who killed Su Li in Xunyang City. If you have the ability, then have His Holiness retract the decree!"
Luoluo no longer paid her any attention and turned to walk out of the Imperial Palace. Only her clear and childish voice still echoed. "In any case, if you have the ability, have His Holiness take back my teacher's bed."
Hearing these words, Mo Yu's cheeks blushed slightly. She stared at her back, suppressing her shyness as she said, "Your Highness is so young, yet you care about these things. I don't have that kind of ability."
It could be said that she had no ability, but when Mo Yu walked onto the Dew Platform and saw the Divine Empress bathed in the radiance of the Night Pearls at the edge of the platform, she still couldn't help but want to say something. Finally, when she opened her mouth, she talked about her previous encounter. "Chen of Yu," Mo, of Li, Mo Mo Yu, and said of said, said of Yu, "When, Mo Yu of Mo of a of of Chen of, Family, Chen, Yu, and Emperor, Ming
Mo Yu softly replied, "Presumably, Chen Changsheng still has some use."
The Divine Empress smiled. "In the past few days, the capital has been spreading the news that Chen Changsheng was not able to leave the Garden of Zhou and may have already lost his life. I hear that she's very sad?"
Mo Yu thought, 'sad' is not as simple as that. ' Just when she was about to say something, the Divine Empress suddenly turned around and glanced at her. It was just a very simple glance, very light, without any deep meaning, just a casual glance. It didn't ask about the relationship between her and Chen Chang Sheng like Zhou Tong and Luo Luo did, but … her body suddenly became much colder.
After hearing the news that Chen Changsheng had died in the Garden of Zhou, her mood was also somewhat off.
Of course, she did not cry. She only felt somewhat disappointed, very perplexed, as if something was missing from her life. She knew that this sort of emotional reaction was very problematic. She was very worried that others would see this problem. But tonight, first Zhou Tong had asked, then Luoluo had brought it up, and now, the Empress had glanced at her. How could she not be nervous?
Fortunately, the Divine Empress did not do anything. She only extended her hand and lightly stroked her smooth and exquisite cheek, like she was playing with a cat, or like she was playing with some very wonderful object. Everyone knew that Mo Yu was an extremely beautiful woman, so beautiful that she was like a work of art.
The Divine Empress rarely acted so intimately with anyone, not even her own daughter, let alone those sons who had died and descendants who had been exiled to the various counties. In these past few years, only Mo Yu was an exception. There were times when some busybodies would even make many scandalous speculations about the relationship between these two lofty women of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but these speculations did not spread too far. This was because the Divine Empress's status was too lofty, and also because the Divine Empress was also a beauty. She was even more beautiful than Mo Yu. From the era of Taizong, she had been publicly acknowledged as the number one beauty.
"Chen Changsheng will not die."
The Divine Empress gazed at the myriad stars in the night sky, her expression very casual.
Mo Yu heard these words, but it was like she had heard the voice of an immortal. She immediately felt much more relaxed. She walked to the Divine Empress's side, and just like in the past when the mood was at its best, she lightly held the Divine Empress's arm.
"Then what about Su Li? Will he die? "
Today, at noon, the news that Su Li and Chen Changsheng had appeared in Xunyang City had finally reached the capital, and Zhu Luo's action had only been confirmed at dusk. Su Li was an enemy feared by the demons, and at the same time, he had always been an opponent of the Great Zhou. Mo Yu would not care about his life or death like she did for Chen Changsheng. She would only be a little worried, because Su Li was no ordinary person. His life or death was highly likely to change the entire situation of the continent, and just what did the Divine Empress think about this?
"What I think … is not important, because no one has ever asked me what I think about this matter."
The Divine Empress stood on the edge of the Dew Platform, her hands held behind her. Her figure was clearly graceful, but it gave off a majestic feeling like she was embracing the world. Her words at this moment were tinged with ridicule and coldness.
Mo Yu understood the Empress's meaning. Divine General Xue He had not received the Empress's decree before making his move, but the entire continent would regard his action as the Divine Empress's will. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, whether it was the old or the new powers, the Imperial Court or the Orthodoxy, there were far too many people who wanted Su Li dead. This was because the millions upon millions of Zhou people had a common dream: to unite the north and south and unite the world.
"But … if he dies, then he dies." The Divine Empress gazed at that star in the night sky that had already shone brightly for several centuries but had now become abnormally dim. After a moment of silence, she said, "In any case, I don't like Su Li. He's too distant from the world … what use is there in keeping him?"
… …
