Chapter 51 - Counterattack 100
Lily was startled for a moment, and then reminded Dong Xiang, “Let’s find an inn to rest for a while, we will come back after four hours.”Tonight, she must see Helian Yi. Only if she saw him, would she be willing to leave Ming You Kingdom.
Just like that, the horse carriage slowly left Prince Jing’s Manor’s side.
Inside the Ming You Kingdom, the banquet was nearing its end. The Queen had already left due to her unwell body.
In the main hall, the envoys and ministers from both countries had already left.
Mo Youyou supported himself by holding his head as he sat at Helian Yi’s position, bored as he played with the wine in his hand.Initially, she wanted to discuss her future matters with Emperor, but unexpectedly, Xiao Zhai interrupted her. In the end, even Helian Yi was called over by Emperor.
Just as she was in a daze, a thick scent of flowers assaulted her nostrils, Mo Youyou raised her head and looked at Helian Yao’er who was standing in front of her.
Just as he was about to speak, Helian Yao’er took the initiative, “Mo Youyou, what is your relationship with the Tong Li Kingdom?”
“Tong Li Kingdom?” Thinking about Ah De, Mo Youyou pursed his lips into a smile, and replied: “Ordinary friend.”
Helian Yao’er sized Mo Youyou up with suspicion. She did not believe that they were only ordinary friends. Just now, she had clearly seen the adoration in Xiao Zhai’s eyes when he looked at his.
Seeing that Helian Yao’er did not believe her, Mo Youyou stood up and laughed: “If Princess does not believe me, you can ask Tong Li Kingdom. I still have things to do, so I will be leaving first.”
Just as he took a step forward, he was blocked by Helian Yu yet again.
Mo Youyou looked up to the sky speechlessly, and asked with an impatient face, “What does Prince Xiang need now?”
Helian Yu revealed a strange smile, “Youyou, it was I’s fault earlier. It hurt your heart. But the feelings I has for you, are real. Can you give I a chance to make amends? ”Mo Youyou looked at Helian Yu meaningfully. Was this a feast set up for him? She sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she only asked with an innocent smile:
“Make up for it? How does Prince Xiang want to make up for his mistakes? ”
The corner of Helian Yu’s mouth curled up, and he said: “Can Youyou please honor me and accompany me to the pavilion for a chat?”
Seeing that, Helian Yao’er turned to Helian Yu unhappily: Fourth brother, this woman had made you look so awkward in front of so many people, why do you want to apologize to her?
“Yao’er, this has nothing to do with you. Don’t get involved! “Step down!”
Helian Yao’er was so angry that he stomped his feet and ran out of the Qian Kun Hall.
Mo Youyou looked at Mo Li and Mo Yan. A glint flashed across her clear eyes. She walked up to the two sisters and asked, “How about you two sisters are with Youyou?”
Mo Li glared at Mo Youyou in disdain, but Mo Yan spoke up, “Since Ninth Sis is inviting me, then Big Sis won’t be courteous anymore.”
Seeing that, Helian Yu wanted to reject the two sisters, but he was afraid that Mo Youyou would suspect something, so he agreed. The four of them quickly left the Qian Kun Hall and went in the direction of the Imperial Garden.
Outside Qian Kun Hall, Wu Shang was left behind by Helian Yi to look at Mo Youyou. Seeing Mo Youyou and Helian Yu leave, he said to Yue Er who was beside him: “You go follow Ninth Miss, I’ll go look for Master now.”
Yue Er nodded, and followed Mo Youyou towards the Imperial Garden from a distance.
On the pavilion, Mo Youyou and Helian Yu sat facing each other, while Mo Yan and Mo Li sat on both sides of Mo Youyou.
Mo Youyou stared at the two of them with his clear eyes. From the looks of it, they were Helian Yu’s first wife, and couldn’t help but want to stick to Helian Yu’s body.With one hand playing with the teacup in his hand, he glanced at the teacup in front of Mo Yan again. With a cold laugh, Mo Youyou opened his mouth, “Prince Xiang can say whatever he wants to say.
Helian Yu replied, “Youyou, you should know the feelings that I has towards you. This time, I was really confused and did something to apologize to you … ”
Hearing Helian Yu’s words, Mo Yan wanted to stand up and ask. Under the table, Mo Li kicked him and she sat back down. Mo Li looked at her and gently shook her head, indicating that she should not act rashly. Receiving Mo Li’s gaze, Mo Yan could only endure her impulse for the time being.
Mo Youyou shot a glance at Helian Yu before he abruptly stood up and said in a cold voice, “If Prince Xiang truly has nothing else to say, then farewell, Youyou.”As he spoke, he turned to leave. Not far away, Yue Er stood on her tiptoes to observe the situation, afraid that her young miss would suffer a loss.
Helian Yu anxiously stood up and reached out his hand to stop Mo Youyou, but while the other three were not paying attention, he stopped above Mo Youyou’s teacup for a moment and quickly retracted his hand.
“Youyou, don’t be like this, I will not talk about this anymore. Come, let’s sit down and taste this golden needle leaf, this is one of the best tea leaves from the Fusang Kingdom, it is very light and fragrant, I heard that girls can still look good after drinking it, how about we taste it?”
After he finished speaking, Helian Yu looked at Mo Youyou with blazing eyes, hoping that she would stay behind.
Mo Youyou looked at Helian Yu in the blink of an eye and thought, “If you don’t have anything to offer, then please help me! “Since you want me to stay behind, I’ll play with you!”
She sat back down on her seat and rubbed the tip of her nose. Looking at the tea in front of her, her lips curled up into a mocking smile.
Helian Yu’s gaze was fixated on Mo Youyou’s body, seeing that she was hesitating while staring at the tea, he picked up his own teacup and brought it under his nose to take a small breath, his mouth raised, and glanced at Mo Youyou who was opposite, and reminded:
“Youyou, how do you like it?”
Mo Youyou was startled for a moment, he then took the teacup in front of him and brought it slowly to his mouth, Helian Yu stared at his hand and upon seeing that, Mo Li felt that there was something wrong. Her gaze fell on Helian Yu, and seeing his somewhat hopeful eyes, she shifted her gaze towards the teacup in Mo Youyou’s hand, and said in her heart:
“Could it be that there’s a problem with Mo Youyou’s tea?”
His heart tightened as he observed the actions of the two.
Suddenly, Mo Youyou put down the teacup in his hand, one hand on his chest, his expression painful as he slid down the chair.
Helian Yu looked at Mo Youyou in confusion. She did not touch the tea water, what was going on?
Seeing that, Mo Li and Mo Yan looked at each other, then suspiciously looked at Mo Youyou who was seated on the ground.Yue Er, who was standing guard around the pavilion, saw this scene, her heart was startled, and she quickly ran towards the pavilion.
Seeing Mo Youyou sitting on the ground and struggling in pain, Yue Er was scared to the point of crying, “Miss, what’s wrong? Miss, what’s wrong with you? ”
She raised her eyes to look at Helian Yu, wanting to get an answer out of him, but Helian Yu seemed to be very curious too. She then looked at Mo Li, and saw that Mo Li still had a face full of bewilderment and confusion.
Thinking about that, Mo Yan suddenly threw herself to Mo Youyou’s side, holding her shoulders tightly, she asked worriedly: “Ninth Sister, where are you unwell and telling Fourth Sister, Fourth Sister will call the imperial physician!”
