Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 116 Waiting for Death
"Because what I want is different from what the empress thinks." Mo Qingli raised her eyes and frowned slightly, but her eyes never changed, it was that determination.

Shangguan Yun frowned, "It's good for you to come back, I feel more at ease when I'm by my side, but it's just a waste of the prince's arrangement. You know, it's much harder for a person to disappear than to appear. By the way, Song Sicen is engaged to Qin. He is the legitimate son of the Liu family."

Mo Qingli was a little surprised, she had dealt with Song Sicen before, Song Sicen was infatuated with Luo Zishang, how could she be willing to marry someone else?

"Speaking of which, I left the palace early in the morning, and now it is said that the wind and cold can't see people, who knows what's going on?" Shangguan Yun shook her head, "Xueshi Liu, that's a tough one."

"The most important thing right now is the prince's marriage." Mo Qingli said.

Shangguan Yun raised her eyes lazily, "I have taken care of a lot of things these days, and I am exhausted. I want to take a break. Go find Qianqian. She misses you too."

"Yes." Mo Qingli took the order and retreated.

Shangguan Yun lay on the couch, watched Mo Qingli retreat, frowned slightly, and muttered: "It's getting harder and harder to get off."

"Isn't this Hongye girl? I haven't seen you for a while, where are you going?" Mo Zhiyan met Mo Zhiyan on Mo Qingli Road, and because of Shangguan Yun's praise, Mo Zhiyan also remembered this unusual court lady, so she went to see her off that day. The maid who added makeup came back and reported that her makeup was completely overwhelmed by the queen. It's a pity that that cunning Xing'an stopped her and asked Hongye to bring her makeup over. See you now, Mo Zhiyan is in a terrible mood not too good.

"The servant is following the order of the empress to visit the princess." Mo Qingli said.

Mo Zhiyan smiled, "That's really a coincidence, I'm going to see the princess too, so I just happened to be there."

Mo Qingli knew the way. Mo Zhiyan's original path was to the outer palace. She was afraid that she didn't want to meet the princess, but wanted to find an opportunity in the outer palace to meet Luo Zishang. But it just so happened that she also had something to say to Mo Zhi words of mind.

"The happy event in this palace is coming soon, the palace has not been lively for a long time." Mo Zhiyan said, "No wonder the empress is so caring, the makeup and gift are almost comparable to the dowry that ordinary daughters go out, it is really great glory."

Mo Qingli said with a smile: "The empress will feel distressed after sending it out."

Mo Zhiyan was a little surprised, with a smile in his eyes, "The red leaves are teasing me, how can the empress feel sorry for these things, these are probably a drop in the bucket for the empress, or the empress plans to keep more as a dowry for the princess."

Mo Qingli said: "It's not because of this, because of the prince, the empress intends to reward more, on the surface it is for Miss Duan, but in fact it is not for the prince, but with this specification in front, it will be difficult to deal with later. .”

Mo Zhiyan was surprised, "Later? Is there another happy event?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know yet, Mr. Luo came here, and Mrs. Luo's cousin, Miss Sicen, who lived in the Empress' Palace, is also engaged. The good times are probably not far away." Mo Qingli said with a smile.

"What?" Mo Zhiyan straightened her expression, "You can't talk nonsense, you can't bear the responsibility if you don't spread the news without definite information."

Mo Qingli smiled, "The slave is not a newcomer anymore, there is no such thing as a sure thing, how dare the slave say that? The empress even gave the congratulatory gift yesterday, but the slave is busy with family affairs, so she only went back to the palace to find out."

Hearing this, Mo Zhiyan smiled, took off the blue-and-white beryl bracelet from her hand and handed it to Hongye with a smile: "It must be true, I haven't been out for a long time, I don't know anything, this is a happy event , fortunately, you told me, so I will be happy too."

"Your Majesty is kind, Miss Sicen must be very grateful." Mo Qingli said, accepting the bracelet.

Mo Zhiyan nodded, stopped walking and said, "I'll go clean up first, and I'll see the princess with you some other day."

Mo Qingli saluted her, watched her leave, and looked at the bracelet in her hand, the whole body was crystal clear and jade-like, it seemed that Mo Zhiyan's small coffers were not short of things, accepting the bracelet was secondary, if Mo Zhiyan It would be interesting for her to be Shangguan Yun's breakthrough.

"Hongye, you're here." Qianqian was playing the piano, and immediately stood up when she saw her come in. Mo Qingli saluted and was helped up by her, and she pulled her to sit down and said, "Listen quickly, I just learned a new song."

Mo Qingli listened to her talking for a while, and said with a smile: "The princess is playing better again, but it's too slow."

Qianqian stuck out her tongue, "That's talent, and I'm not yet proficient in score. By the way, how is your mother?"

Mo Qingli was taken aback, she didn't expect Qianqian to accept such an identity, she subconsciously said: "It's much better."

Qianqian nodded, took a jade hairpin directly and said: "I don't have any silver in my hand, this jade hairpin should be able to exchange for some money if you take it. Going bankrupt."

Mo Qingli's heart warmed, she pushed the hairpin over and said, "Your Majesty has rewarded me so much, I can't use them all up."

Qianqian forced the hairpin into her hand and said, "Just in case, it's good to have something urgent."

She had no choice but to accept it, and Qianqian took her to look at the prepared flower dew again. After Taocheng came out, added spices and dried it in the sun, it was done. This batch of flower dew was well done, which shows Qianqian's intentions.

The days passed quickly, the Duan Mansion was properly prepared, Jun Shecang had the empress personally presided over it, no one would want to delay the time, and the empress even ordered the ceremony to be held in the palace. Well, the queen is the elder sister-in-law, so the palace is decorated with lanterns and festoons everywhere, and the floor is paved with red carpet.

"Sister Hongye, do you think it would be good to put this potted plant here?" A few eunuchs carried the longevity pine to Mo Qingli and asked for instructions. The queen empress left all the arrangements to Sister Hongye. Blessings that even the general manager can't enjoy.

Mo Qingli nodded, suddenly, a snow-white lotus flower came to her, raised her eyes, Xing'an handed the flower to her with a smile, then sat on the stone beside her and said, "Sister Hongye, why are you here?" I'm gloomy, but I've been too busy lately, and these people are too stupid, I have to ask for instructions to put a flowerpot, so what do I need my brains for?"

Mo Qingli laughed, "There has been no wedding in the palace for a long time, so they must be unfamiliar. The empress is so concerned, the people below are unavoidably nervous. It is not wrong to want to do more carefully. Where did you pick these flowers? On the Yuhe River ?”

Xing'an smiled, "There is no such delicate flower on the Yuhe River. It was newly cultivated by the Flower and Bird Department. I passed by to have a look, so I broke one and brought it to my sister."

"Where is the prince?" Mo Qingli asked after a pause.

"The lord has cut new clothes, and a group of ministers gathered there to think of a name for Miss Duan. After all, the empress gave her a marriage title, and it would be more appropriate to add a title. All the books of poetry have been moved out. I don't think it's necessary. If you want to come to me, you tell the prince to come and help." Xing'an said.

Mo Qingli's heart skipped a beat, "Did you tell the prince that you would come to help?"

Xing'an smiled and said: "Yes, the lord also knows that it's not easy for my sister, as soon as I said it, he agreed."

She lowered her head and didn't speak any more. Even if she knew she didn't care and wanted to let go, how many people could really say let go. Did she overestimate herself?Mo Qingli patted Xing'an's shoulder and said, "It's no fun waiting here, do you dare to drink with me?"

"Drinking now?" Xing'an was taken aback.

Mo Qingli nodded.

Xing'an said with some anxiety: "I have to go back to the imperial study to serve at night."

Mo Qingli raised her eyebrows, "Could it be that there are no other living people in the imperial study room besides you? The prince is about to get married, he must be in a good mood, and he should give others a chance to show his face."

Xing'an smiled and said, "Then sister doesn't need to answer the empress?"

Mo Qingli shook her head, "Your Majesty won't care."

Xing'an said enviously: "We slaves have never been able to make decisions by ourselves, but my sister has the ability to do everything so freely, I really dare not."

Mo Qingli smiled lowly, because she was not a slave, neither Shangguan Yun nor Jun Shecang would do anything to her, that's why she dared to be so casual, she stretched out her hand and pulled Xing'an up, " Just go drink with me, it's worth getting to know each other, I'll take care of anything."

Xing'an has been cautious all his life, but at this time she brought out a ray of pride. Anyway, the prince will not need him recently, so he nodded and said: "I will listen to my sister."

Mo Qingli ordered someone to fetch two altars of Lihuabai, found a secluded place with Xing'an and started drinking.

She didn't deliberately drink alcohol, but maybe she was born with a lot of alcohol, she just felt unhappy and wanted to get drunk, just like an ordinary woman who lost her love, crying and making a fuss is not her nature, and sleeping with her head down is right. She works better.

Accustomed to sealing all the wounds in her heart and burying all the pain in her stomach, she also wanted to find a way to vent.

Xing'an originally talked to her one after another, but he couldn't drink enough, and he lay down after half the jar.

Mo Qingli sat on the rockery, watching the moonlight quietly, her eyes were cold and serene, she occasionally raised her hand to pour the clear wine into her mouth, it was as natural as drinking water.

She suddenly thought of a very classic line, the difference between wine and water is that the wine will get warmer the more you drink it, while the water will get colder the more you drink it.

Before she knew it, the jar was already empty, she gave a low laugh, and kicked Xing'an, Xing'an was already fast asleep with the stone in her arms, Mo Qingli ignored him and left the rockery.

"Sister Hongye." The passing maids greeted her respectfully, Mo Qingli nodded, and as she walked slowly, she could hear the maids behind her whispering.

"That's the celebrity next to the empress, it doesn't look unusual." "Shh, don't say it's unusual, it depends on their style, look at how dependent the princess is on her, even Eunuch Xing is on her Three points of admiration."

Hearing what they said, Mo Qingli had a smile on her face. When others saw her status, they were jealous and envious. Everyone wished to have half of her glory. No one would understand the difficulty she was trapped in this body. Boredom welled up in my heart.
