Chapter 70 - Falling in love with a village girl

Just as he was about to set up the Flowing Water Dining Hall, Mo Xiyan didn't want to go and eat for free.

Thus, when he returned home, he told Zhang Ye to go to the county's market to buy some food before daybreak so that he could reduce Li Zheng's burden.

After Zhang Ye received his order, on the second day at dusk, he drove out the door.

His speed was extremely fast, and when the sky first brightened, he had already returned from the county, and loaded up a cart full of things that Mo Xiyan wanted.

He directly delivered the goods to Li Zheng's house, and as he unloaded the car, the crowd was so shocked that their jaws dropped.

His car, which could not be considered large, was actually filled with fine rice, big white face, and several tens of pieces of meat each.

"Good boy, these things cost a lot of money."

"Yeah, even if it's New Year, I wouldn't be able to prepare so much. Miss Mo is truly too rich."

"F * ck off, you don't even know how to talk. Which family would have this at the Spring Festival?" In my opinion, it's just a Miss Mo. Otherwise, I reckon that the Flowing Water Dining Hall that Li Zhengzheng is talking about can only be touched with a white mask. "

"Alright, it doesn't hurt to stand here. The situation in our village is the same, so don't laugh at anyone."

Because these things caused a heated discussion among the villagers.

However, their discussion was their business, so it did not matter that Li was putting the things in the house.

"Please thank her for me, but she wanted to help me out."

Li Zheng spoke with sincerity.

Yesterday, after his son was rescued, he was so excited that he immediately sent out a message to invite a three-day assembly.

However, when he got home, he was stunned when he saw the inventory in his cellar.

Looking at the empty cellar, only then did he remember that after A Liu had given birth to her, he had taken out the good stuff there and helped her recover.

Although he was a righteous person, he was actually still a poor person.

Compared to the villagers, they could only do so little.

He had originally wanted to tell the villagers that he would change this water to the tetradecyl's full moon wine when the sun rose.

After all, he could get some good stuff in this one month's time to support himself.

If he failed to trust the people, then in the future, he would no longer need to mix in with the Mo Village and become the center of attention.

So when he saw Zhang Ye bringing a cart full of stuff to knock on the door, he was not the least bit excited.

Although he owed Mo Xiyan a favor, it was still better than not believing others' words.

However, through this matter, he was once again certain of one thing.

If that was the case, it would be a good relationship with Mo Xiyan, and it would definitely be a business deal that only earned him money.

Just as the Mo Village was enveloped in a cheerful atmosphere, the atmosphere in the imperial palace of the capital was extremely strange.

The middle-aged emperor sat upright on the dragon throne, his two temples pale. Although he had already revealed his old mistress, his eyes were still sharp and wise.

With a cold and detached gaze, he looked at Murong Yu who was standing in front of the dragon table, and spoke with an indifferent tone: "This trip would have been extremely tiring, and if you hadn't been guarding the border all year round, our mountains and rivers would have been unstable long ago."

"Father's words are harsh, this son is just doing his duty."

Murong Yu knelt on the ground with a thump, lowered his head slightly, and said without a hurry.

"You should change your personality." The tone of the emperor was still cold. "If it wasn't for your personality, the crown prince position would have long been yours."

This was a trap.

Of course Murong Yu wouldn't fall for it.

However, he would still feel uncomfortable in his heart.

For the sake of his other son, his own father had actually probed him.

How could this not make his heart turn cold?

Could it be that he was born in a royal family and was unable to have any warmth?

At this moment, he thought of Mo Xiyan.

The girl with the brilliant smile.

It was also because of this that there was a trace of warmth deep within his ice-cold heart.

Murong Yu lowered his head, and muttered: "Father is joking, I, your son, am only capable of dancing with blades and sticks, how can I know anything about court matters?"

As he spoke, he paused slightly before continuing, "Moreover, Imperial Brother's accomplishments in coming to the Imperial Palace in the past few years were clearly seen by everyone in the Imperial Court. It is enough for you to have him helping Imperial Father."

The King did not continue with this topic, but called him up. After standing back up, his gaze landed on the mask on Murong Yu's face.

"What did the doctor say about your face?"

Murong Yu's gaze dimmed, but his tone remained calm and unperturbed, "This is a proper medical treatment. With his current medical skills, he has no solution."

"Tomorrow, Mo Qidao will enter the palace. At that time, let him take a look for you."

The emperor's words were still as neutral as ever.

Murong Yu's attitude was also neither cold nor indifferent.

"Alright."

Of course Murong Yu knew about that.

Five years ago, he seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Based on his appearance of the immortal wind, he was known as the living immortal.

This alarmed the emperor.

It was unknown what sort of method he used, but after the emperor proclaimed that he was to enter the palace, he never left the palace. It was as if he had become a guest here, sharing the glory with the emperor.

Murong Yu found it the strangest.

It was said that the Emperor's bed was by his side, so how could he allow others to sleep soundly?

But not only had Mo Qidao slept with his second wife, he had also allowed her to give birth to a child.

After what happened, not only did he become the emperor, his glory was even greater than before.

He did not think that his father was a monarch. On the contrary, he was a wise monarch.

It was also because of this that Murong Yu felt that there was another story behind Mo Qidao's actions.

Thus, he would definitely come tomorrow. He wanted to have a good look at what sort of character he was.

Yes, even though Mo Qidao had already been in the palace for five years.

But Murong Yu had always been guarding the border and had never really seen him.

Tomorrow was the first time.

"Right, you're no longer young, it's time for your wedding. Tell your father that he has set his eyes on whose girl, I'll grant you your marriage."

The speed at which his brain retraced its steps was also something that made people speechless.

But Murong Yu was already used to it.

The Emperor had asked him this question before, but he had never refused.

His hesitation was very obvious, and the expression of the emperor changed slightly at this moment.

"So, you have someone in your heart?"

He looked at Murong Yu and asked again.

"Yes."

Murong Yu did not plan to hide it.

After all, he had already given away his jade pendant, which meant that this matter would be known by the emperor as soon as possible.

Rather than letting him find out and expose it, if he were to say it out loud himself, it would be better for him to avoid being suspected by his royal father.

"Oh, tell me, which family is it from? Prime Minister's? Or from the Duke Palace? "

The emperor's interest was piqued, and his tone seemed to catch a bit of the heat.

But only Murong Yu knew that it was just an illusion.

Only mountains and rivers could pique the interest of an emperor.

Murong Yu had already planned to reveal Mo Xiyan.

However, he didn't want to reveal her identity that quickly.

Not only was he too close to the Crown Prince, he was obviously after the Crown Princess.

The Emperor had long since disliked him.

If he were to say Mo Xiyan now, perhaps the emperor would be able to send out his hidden guards the next day to assassinate her.

Therefore, he could not take the risk.

Thinking up to here, Murong Yu once again lowered his head and said softly, "That's not it, she is just a country girl."
