She really is Mo Jiuli!
145: 144.
She really is Mo Jiuli!
Ouyang Luoxi stared at the departing figures of the Mo Family Ancestor and Mo Chenluo, momentarily frozen on the spot.
How could they not believe his words after his lengthy explanation?
Everything he said was true!
That woman really was Mo Jiuli…
Mo Caiyun glanced at her daughter and the Crown Prince, waved her hand to let the guards leave, and gave the space to Mo Jiuqi and Ouyang Luoxi…
Seeing that the people behind him retreated, Ouyang Luoxi regained his senses and looked at Mo Jiuqi opposite him.
Seeing her disappointed gaze, Ouyang Luoxi felt somewhat embarrassed…
“Jiuqi, I know you’re disappointed in what I’ve done!
However, she really is Mo Jiuli!
You know that she is the legitimate daughter of the Mo Family.
It was Emperor Father’s intention for me to marry her, but the one I love is you!
I promise you, though I can only offer you the position of a concubine, I will only cherish and love you alone!” Ouyang Luoxi took a deep breath and spoke passionately to Mo Jiuqi.
He couldn’t give up Mo Jiuqi now, so he decided to appease her emotions first and discuss it later.
He didn’t even know where Mo Jiuli was, and if he angered Mo Jiuqi even more, he would be at a great loss if he couldn’t find Mo Jiuli in the end…
Mo Jiuqi looked at the Crown Prince with some doubt: “Are you telling the truth?”
“Jiuqi, when have I ever deceived you?
If Mo Jiuli hadn’t suddenly appeared, how could I have disappointed you?
Don’t you understand my feelings for you after all these years?” Ouyang Luoxi walked a few steps towards Mo Jiuqi, staring deeply into her beautiful face.
“But…but you…” Mo Jiuqi felt uncomfortable under Ouyang Luoxi’s passionate gaze.
“Jiuqi, I had no choice in today’s matter!
Emperor Father issued an imperial decree, and the eunuch who announced it was present.
I couldn’t say anything and had to tell you first, intending to explain it to you later!
I didn’t expect to make you sad; it’s my fault…” As Ouyang Luoxi spoke, his handsome face slowly enlarged in Mo Jiuqi’s gaze, and his cool lips gently caressed Mo Jiuqi’s red lips…
Mo Jiuqi, whose heart had softened, was swept away by Ouyang Luoxi’s sudden tender kiss.
Her anger and grief vanished into thin air!
She was lost in Ouyang Luoxi’s gentle kiss, leaning against the Crown Prince’s embrace, turning into a puddle of spring water…
A single kiss left their breaths in disarray, but Ouyang Luoxi wasn’t satisfied with just one.
However, realizing that this place was the courtyard of the General’s Mansion, which was not suitable, he reluctantly pulled away from Mo Jiuqi’s lips: “Jiuqi, you have to believe me!”
“I understand…” Mo Jiuqi buried her face in Ouyang Luoxi’s embrace, speaking like a woman in love.
“Jiuqi, about this imperial decree, can you…” Having appeased Mo Jiuqi’s emotions, Ouyang Luoxi looked at the imperial decree in his hand, hesitating to speak.
Mo Jiuqi stiffened at the mention of the decree but, seeing Ouyang Luoxi’s troubled expression, she sighed reluctantly: “Crown Prince, don’t worry, I will give the imperial decree to Uncle, the Patriarch!”
He uttered many irrelevant sweet words and even kissed Mo Jiuqi repeatedly, regardless of the situation, until she could barely stand.
Then, with lingering reluctance, he released her and left the General’s Mansion…
Watching the Crown Prince’s retreating figure, Mo Jiuqi touched her kissed lips, her smile beaming like that of a woman in love—happy and sweetly infatuated…
However, as her eyes landed on the bright yellow imperial decree in her hand, Mo Jiuqi’s smile gradually faded…
She walked towards the backyard, holding the decree.
Though she promised the Crown Prince not to mind, how could she not?
She had given him the best years of her life—did he really think a few words from him would make her willingly become a concubine?
Hmph, she merely agreed to the Crown Prince!
As for the woman the Crown Prince wanted to marry, all Mo Jiuqi had to do was find a way to get rid of her!
Then, the position of Princess Consort would still be hers!
Regardless of whether the woman was Mo Jiuli or not, she would not let her off…
A malicious glint flashed across Mo Jiuqi’s eyes, and Lin Yue, hidden in the shadows, looked at Mo Jiuqi in front of her.
Her gaze turned colder.
If it weren’t for her master’s orders, she’d want to deal with this woman right now.
Anyone who harbored killing intent toward her master deserved to die…
Mo Jiuqi hurried through the courtyard to Mo Caiyun’s room.
Once inside, she found Mo Caiyun already sitting there, waiting for her.
She walked over and gripped her mother’s sleeve, saying grievously, “Mother, you have to help me!
I really like the Crown Prince, and I don’t want to be her concubine…”
“Alright, tell your mother first.
Why did the Crown Prince say that Mo Jiuli is still alive?
Five years ago, didn’t you two…” Mo Caiyun patted her daughter’s head, asking with curiosity.
“I don’t know what’s going on either.
There was a commotion at the inn in the city earlier, so Elder Luan, a minister of the royal family, and many strong people went to investigate…” Mo Jiuqi honestly told the story of Elder Luan’s death, Princess Min’s death, and her encounter with Mo Jiuli and others at the inn along with the Crown Prince.
“Mother, I’ve seen that woman, and I’m sure she didn’t take any Disguise Pills or wear a mask.
She’s not that Trash at all.
There’s no resemblance.
But for some reason, the Crown Prince insists she’s Mo Jiuli…” Mo Jiuqi spoke, a little annoyed.
She still couldn’t make sense of what happened.
“You said that woman has dissolved the marriage contract with the Crown Prince?” Mo Caiyun asked pensively.
“Exactly.
That woman’s strength is not below mine.
She easily took the Crown Prince’s Heart Blood and, using some unknown demon art, stole his token and dissolved the marriage contract…” Mo Jiuqi said disdainfully.
While she had to admit that the woman was much stronger than her, she would never admit it.
Mo Caiyun knew her daughter’s temperament.
After wearing the halo of a genius for so many years, it was difficult for her to accept someone stronger than her.
Thankfully, she was usually calm and collected in front of outsiders, and only showed this side of her in private, so Mo Caiyun did not say anything…
However, thinking of the Crown Prince’s mention of the token, she felt a sense of familiarity, but couldn’t remember where she had heard or seen it before.
Jiuqi said that the woman was not Mo Jiuli, and she also thought so!
When Mo Jiuli was tested as trash years ago, she knew about it and later, out of worry, she privately had someone test Jiuli’s constitution again.
Only after confirming that she was truly trash did she allow Jiuqi to bully her without worry…
