"Does Wei Zu Tian know we are all waiting for him if you watch the show while leaving your pregnant wife at home?" Lory was worried that Li Mo Zhen's presence would increase Wei Zu Tian's suspicions.
"He won't" Bei Li Yan cut in "There's no harm in married men watching beautiful singers while leaving their pregnant wives behind, in fact, when women are pregnant they won't be able to fulfill their obligations as wives so it's normal for men to do so. men looking for other women to fulfill their needs even though this behavior frowns upon, but most people excused this type of behavior" Bei Li Yan smiled sarcastically.
Lory was dumbfounded then he narrowed his eyes "I hope Mr. Li didn't come with any intention" Lory gave Li mo Zhen a stern look.
Li Mo Zhen shook his head vigorously then quickly explained himself "Of course not, I won't take any more wives other than Xi Ying, it proved to be creating unnecessary trouble in many noble households…. besides…Yang Xi Ying will definitely leave me" Li Mo Zhen muttered the last sentence.
Yang Xi Ying once joked with him, if one day Li Mo Zhen let him down she would leave him and take refuge with Ming Yue Yin or Lory. Albeit it was just a joke still it was enough to make Li Mo Zhen anxious, It was quite difficult to fight against Ming Yue Yin but did he have to fight Lory and Long Ming too?
Li Mo Zhen had never had the intention to find another woman, but the idea of going up against many formidable opponents like Ming Yue Yin, Lory, and Long Ming still sent chills down his spine.
Lory laughed at Li Mo Zhen stressed expression, Yang Xi Ying might look gentle on the outside but on the inside, she was stubborn and quite opinionated especially after she was completely influenced by Lory and Ming Yue Yin, she learned that women are more than just accessories and baby-making for man, therefore, she would not hesitate to leave if Li Mo Zhen treated her badly, Yang Xi Ying knows a woman also deserved to be happy.
"When you came here, did Miss Yang insist on coming along?" Wu San Bo was curious how Li Mo Zhen persuaded her to stay while they were having 'fun'.
"Oh, I begged Empress Ming to use her authority to make Xi Ying stay" Li Mo Zhen smiled innocently as he shamelessly throws the responsibility to Ming Yue Yin.
'So Li Mo Zhen threw Ming Yue Yin into the beast's mouth' Lory was stunned then she gives approval nods at Li Mo Zhen's discernment, "Very smart..." Lory also doesn't want to mess with Yang Xi Ying especially when she is pregnant now, it might be a hormonal imbalance or something but lately, Yang Xi Ying had become even more fierce.
Well, Lory refuses to mess with any other pregnant woman, they're nuts.
Suddenly Ming Yue Yin enters the main hall, she stomping her feet with the exhausted face behind her the the Su sisters followed behind her, and they're also Fu Ying General Fu Son's and Grand Tutor Zhang Yu Hong.
Ming Yue Yin instantly complain towards Lory "If looks could kill, I'll be dead right now"
Lory could imagine Yang Xi Ying's looks when she was told she couldn't come, "Thankfully, you're not"
"Because I ran" Ming Yue Yin narrowed her eyes.
Because Yang Xi Ying is pregnant, no one wants to take a risk by bringing her hence watching the show, since the pregnancy does not even pass the trimesters.
"She's very angry, right?" Lory presses her lips together.
"Yeah….." Ming Yue Yin blows her cheeks"You know as a ruler I should not afraid of anything but she scares me" Ming Yue Yin didn't know should she feel amazed or worry.
"I think you should stay in my manor for a couple of days" Lory sincerely said.
Ming Yue Yin grin from ear to ear "That also my intention"
On the side, Zhao Li Xin's eyes darken 'Freeload again, huh!'
"Dammit, you owed me Li Mo Zhen" Ming Yue Yin suddenly point at Li Mo Zhen
But Li Mo Zhen didn't look the slightest bit offended on contrary he bowed his head politely "Thank you, your majesty, I will forever be grateful" he earnestly said.
"Tsk" Ming Yue Yin pouted her lips.
She was blindsided by Li Mo Zhen when she was visiting Yang Xi Ying bedroom, she was in a mids of eating dumpling when Li Mo Zhen said "You cannot come to Xi Ying your condition is too weak, isn't that right your majesty?" he turns his gaze at Ming Yue Yin.
Ming Yue Yin was in the middle of opening her mouth to swallow half the dumpling on her spoon when Li Mo Zhen and Yang Xi Ying looked at her and Ming Yue Yin froze, "Uhm…." she utterly speechless under Yang Xo Ying fierce gaze.
Li Mo Zhen shamelessly handed the matter over to Ming Yue Yin as he said to Yang Xi Ying.
"Xi Ying you should listen to what Your Majesty has to say, it is for your own good" He patted Yang Xi Ying's attention with worried eyes then he turned towards Ming Yue Yin again.
"Your Highness, I live everything in your hands" Li Mo Zhen clasped his hands behind his back and quickly but elegantly left the room before Ming Yue Yin have a chance to say anything.
This was the first time Ming Yue Ying was blindsided with someone other than Lory, although she was upset Ming Yue Yin must praise Li Mo Zhen's wittiness and was grateful he wasn't one of his court officials.
"Captain Fu and Grand Master Zhang, welcome!" Wu San Bo greeted Fu Ying with open arms.
"Thank you for your hospitality Master Wu" Fu Ying cupped his fists and bowed his head deeply as he politely greeted everyone in the room "And greetings to the Palace Lord, Master Long Ming, Madam Zhao, and Master Li"
"You don't need to be so polite, Captain Fu," Bei Li Yan chuckled.
"Master Bei is right, by the way, he is the young General Fu now!" Ming Yue Yin announced proudly.
To be honest, it is not difficult to promote Fu Ying as a General, he is very capable and respected not only by other generals but also his subordinates, it is because the old emperor was worried about the influence of the Fu family thus the old emperor deliberately blocked Fu Ying's military career.
Hence after Ming Yue Yin became Empress she raised Fu Ying's position to where she deserved as a result Ming Yue Yin was now protected by two famous Generals who were wholeheartedly loyal to her.
"Oh, congratulations General Fu!" Lory congratulated him.
Fu Ying bowed her head "Thank you Madam Zhao. This is all because of the Empress's generosity" she sincerely thanked Ming not only because Yue Yin gives him promotion also because she had restored the Fu family's honor after being trampled by the previous emperor.
"And Grand Master Zhang, thank you for coming, thank you for your help in my upcoming wedding" Lory smiled shyly.
Since an elder was asked to continue the wedding ceremony, they asked Grand Master Zhang who was Ming Yue Yin's teacher, and old master Mu who was a good friend of Zhao Li Xin former Master.
"What an honor, Madam Zhao, Master Long Ming" The grandmaster's eyes wrinkled with joy, who would have thought she would act as Madam Hei Shen's elder at her wedding, how could she believe that even her family were shocked when they heard it. , apart from all that Zhang Yu Hong also really likes Lory, he thinks Lory is a good influence for Ming Yue Yin even though he doesn't know Lory's real background but Lory is intelligent and foresight enough to amaze him.
"We have to go, now." Zhao Li Xin suddenly said.
"Right, the show is being held in the city square after sunset we have to go now if we don't want to be late" Li Mo Zhen looked out the window and the sky had already been painted with crimson light.
"Then goodbye and please be careful" Zhang Yu Hong reminded them.
Ming Yue Yin wore a half-mask fox to cover her face, Lory gives an inquisitive look, "You wearing a disguise?"
"Yes, actually their other matter involves Wei Zu Tian and no one imperial palace know I'm here except Uncle Fu and uncle Wu" Ming Yue Yin showed her blatant annoyance.
"Oh what happened?" asked Lory.
"Lao Min Na happened…" Ming Yue Yin clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"Tsk, he's everywhere isn't he" the news instantly irritated Lory.
