"Prince, Xiao Xiao came out of Lady Mo Mo's room and took a bag of things and left the house." The butler stood respectfully in front of King Mo and reported.
Hearing that, Li Hao raised his head and looked at the butler.
"Oh?"
The butler felt cold sweat dripping down his back.
"After the Emperor left, I went to look for her and discovered that Xiao Xiao had untied her." She did not believe that all of this was a coincidence.
"Got it." Li Hao said lightly.
The butler waited for a long time but didn't see King Mo speak, so he stole a glance at him.
He pursed his lips and wiped a crumpled piece of Xuan paper with one hand with concentration. The steward was confused; why would such a precious piece of paper be so valuable? He glanced at it and quickly lowered his head.
No way, Master likes Miss Mo Mo?
He had watched King Mo grow up, and he believed that he understood the personality of his king.
After thinking for a bit, the butler changed the topic, "Your Highness, in a few more days, it will be your coronation ceremony. At that time, both Prince Rong and Prince Rong will come to congratulate you.
"Is there more than ten days left?" Li Hao's hand stopped at the drawing jade pendant.
Butler promised.
"In the next few days, when the prince returns to her mansion, I must train a bit. Don't make any mistakes on the right day."
"Of course we should practice this beforehand. Regarding the matter of sending Mo Mo away …"
Li Hao looked up at the butler who was looking at him with anticipation, "Let's talk about this later."
"Prince …"
The butler panicked.
King Mo raised his hand and stopped the butler from speaking further.
"Don't worry, it's fine. Look, when royal father saw him, he didn't say anything."
The butler opened his mouth. It was fine for the emperor to see, but it didn't mean that it was okay for Prince Qing to see.
Others might not know about Du Jinse's origins, but she did know about it. Prince Qing hated Du Jinse to the bones right now, so if he saw that she was still in Prince Mo’s Manor, he would definitely hate King Mo.
King Mo knew what the butler was thinking, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
"At this time, if you want to take care of yourself, you will be criticized. Old butler, you only need to do your thing, don't worry, don't tell me you don't even trust I?"
The butler naturally didn't mean that. He believed in King Mo, and this child knew how to avoid harm since he was young.
"Then... "Your Highness, I'll head down first."
King Mo nodded and the butler left.
Lowering his head, he saw the jade pendant in Du Jinse's hand. King Mo's lips curled up.
How could he be alone with a woman? She knew in her heart that he wouldn't agree, right?
She was smart enough to know how to refuse him, how to make him unable to do anything to her.
However, he was not the type of person to give up easily.
In the next few days, Du Jinse was very busy. Fortunately, Li Hao did not cause her any trouble.
With Xiao Xiao's help, everything that Du Jinse wanted became much more convenient. She quickly made a few commonly used cosmetics and generously gave Xiao Xiao a set.
Only by working hard did he help Du Jinse promote her cosmetics. Her business was actually not bad, and she felt that the interactions between her and the other sisters in the palace was much better than before. The eternal topic of women was beauty, and what she said was absolutely correct.
These past few days, Du Jinse calculated and came back with the money. She actually made a small profit and wrote another list, telling Xiao Xiao to help her buy it.
Xiao Xiao took the list and left happily.
Du Jinse stretched her back. Ah, right now, in Prince Mo’s Manor, although there was no one that she could rely on, but she was enjoying her meal very much, and was filled with confidence in his future. Forget about opening up a market, even for the young and old women like Prince Mo’s Manor, they would be enough to allow her to support herself.
As Du Jinse walked back, she calculated in the process that she would suddenly bump into someone.
"Insolent servant, you have offended the Prince Qing, why aren't you kneeling down?" a voice snapped.
Prince Qing?
Du Jinse was terrified and when she raised her eyes, she saw that Prince Qing's originally goddess-like face was ice-cold. Her eyes were looking at her as if she was looking at a dead person.
"Mo Mo greets Prince Qing."
Du Jinse relaxed his wide sleeves and leisurely went through with it.
She knew that when she met the Prince Qing today, she would not be able to be kind. Since that was the case, why did she let herself fall into the dust?
"Didn't you hear what I said?" The servant beside Prince Qing looked at Du Jinse furiously.
Du Jinse glanced at the servant, the most capable servant beside Prince Qing had already changed.
He didn't know if the two favoured servants were still alive or dead.
"This little brother, this is the Prince Mo’s Manor. If you want to show your might, aren't you standing in the wrong place?" Du Jinse kindly reminded him.
The attendant's face distorted.
It was all this woman's fault for causing his brother's death, and yet she was still alive. She should have died.
The Prince Qing slowly walked forward. Du Jinse felt the pressure and couldn't help but retreat as if something was pressing on him.
The servant stood behind Du Jinse and blocked her way.
"Du Jinse." Prince Qing spat out Du Jinse's name from between his teeth. He spat out every word as if he grinded it in the middle of his teeth.
"Du Jinse, why is it Du Jinse again, could it be that Mo Mo is really that similar to the Princess Qing?"
At a time like this, someone would never admit that she was Du Jinse even if they were beaten to death.
Du Jinse's expression did not change as she faintly smiled.
Prince Qing extended his hand out and grabbed Du Jinse's chin.
"Do you think that just because you pretend not to know I, I will not know you? Du Jinse, hello, you are very good. "
Prince Qing said 'good' to Du Jinse as he nodded his head. His fingers changed to pinching Du Jinse's neck, and started to retract it bit by bit.
He wanted to see how long Du Jinse could hold on. He wanted Du Jinse to beg for mercy while crying, and wanted her to live a life worse than death.
"Your Highness Prince Qing, you really recognized the wrong person." Du Jinse grabbed Prince Qing's hands with both of his hands, attempting to pry them apart.
Prince Qing's eyes did not waver, he had wanted to do this since long ago. He had to strangle Du Jinse to death personally, otherwise, it would not be easy to vent the hatred in his heart.
It was just that in these past few days, he had always been secluded in his room thinking, allowing Du Jinse to have more free and easy days.
Du Jinse's face slowly turned purple. It looks like, her end of the day had arrived.
Facing the Prince Qing's fierce and fanatical eyes, Du Jinse's lips curled into a ridiculing smile.
"His Highness the Prince Qing is just a pitiful person who has lost a lot of money." These words were unusually strenuous for Du Jinse. Since she was going to die anyway, it wouldn't be good if she didn't spit it out.
When his throat loosened, Prince Qing suddenly stopped his hands as he greedily breathed in the fresh air.
"I would like to hear how pitiful I is now."
Prince Qing said maliciously.
