The Great Planned Marriage: Becoming A Splendid Princess Chapter 44 Grandma Was Always Right!

Mo Junhao paced in the gazebo for a long before seeing Yan hurrying over.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue was not behind, and Yan reported with an upset face, "Master, Sixth Lady of the s.h.i.+ Family said that the palace banquet had begun and she was inconvenient to leave her seat. It would cause others' gossip if she and Your Highness stayed together alone. Your Highness, please..."

Before Yan's words were finished, Mo Junhao was so mad that he threw the pansy in his hand to the ground. And he was still not relieved, he even stepped on it twice.

He asked sullenly, "What else did she say?"

Yan replied trembling, "Your Highness, please, please forgive her, and she won't come."

Yan finished his words with one breath in the end, and closed his mouth instantly. He half-opened his eyes to look at Mo Junhao's face.

Mo Junhao looked ferocious, and his eyes seemed to be burning, while he gritted his teeth and scolded, "Fine, s.h.i.+ Qingxue! You really regard yourself as a treasure! I invite you with good intention. How dare you to turn me down?"

But after a while, Mo Junhao showed a weird smile again and said insidiously, "Do you think that you can avoid seeing me if you say so? I show my respect and you don't treasure this chance. Then don't blame me for being cruel!

This time I not only want you to see me, but I want you to belong to me completely!"

Mo Junhao smiled insidiously, waved his hand to Yan, "Come and listen."

Yan felt hard in his hearty, but he could only be obedient to his master and stepped forward.

After listening to Mo Junhao's order, his sweats rolled down and hesitated, "Master, if this turned into a big trouble, it would be shameful..."

"Don't make nonsense, hurry up. If you can't do this matter well enough, I will rip off your skin!" Mo Junhao kicked on him and drove him away.

In a not long time after the banquet had begun, there were people continuously asking s.h.i.+ Qingxue to talk alone, but she turned them down. She just sat in her seat and wouldn't move.

On the contrary, s.h.i.+ Baoning frowned, and whispered, "Qingxue, it might not be proper that you declined the kindness of those sisters. After all, they are all out of good intentions, and Fourth Prince..."

s.h.i.+ Baoning knew that Qingxue liked Mo Junhao, and said, "You two grow up together, and there is no such a defined distance between you. Moreover, grandmother tends to marry you to Fourth Prince. If you talk with him alone, no one dares to say anything. Why do you..."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue did not expect that s.h.i.+ Baoning would say such words to her. She was a little surprised. After a while, she frowned and said, "Baoning, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you want me to meet a man in private?"

Even if the distance between men and women was not strictly defined in the Mo Dynasty, handing things between men and women would make others gossip, let alone meeting in private.

s.h.i.+ Baoning was speechless and explained in a hurry, "I don't mean it. Just Fourth Prince... He will become your husband in the future, and in this way, he is not someone else. Now he asks you out with good intentions, and you don't have to turn him down because of these little matters."

s.h.i.+ Qingxue guessed that her previous admiration for Mo Junhao made everyone think that she must belong to Mo Junhao, therefore, she didn't blame s.h.i.+ Baoning for her guess. She only said coldly, "The thing hasn't been decided yet. Who says that he must be my husband? What if I don't want to marry him now?"

"No!" s.h.i.+ Baoning declined immediately.

Both of them were astonished for a while, because they didn't expect that s.h.i.+ Baoning would have such an excited response.

Qingxue closed her lips slightly and looked at s.h.i.+ Baoning, "Why not?"

s.h.i.+ Baoning realized that she had overreacted. She looked a bit easier, and persuaded softly, "Fourth Prince matches you in the aspects of knowledge, appearance, family and senses. And grandmother chose this marriage for you. How could you not marry him?"

"Grandma chose it for me?" s.h.i.+ Qingxue's pupils shrank, and she suddenly found something she hadn't noticed in previous life.

She clearly remembered that in the previous life, she wanted to marry Mo Junhao, and her parents both didn't want her to get involved. In the end, she begged her grandmother to deal with it and her parents finally agreed.

But at this moment...

She never thought that Mo Shujun actually hoped that she would marry Mo Junhao. Then after Mo Junhao became the Emperor, why did she agree to abolish her and make s.h.i.+ Baojin the Empress?

s.h.i.+ Qingxue held her breath and didn't dare to think more.

s.h.i.+ Baoning was unaware of her emotions, she nodded solemnly, and said cautiously, "It has been said that you should always follow parents' order and the matchmaker's words. Grandmother has chosen this marriage for you. How could you not marry him?"

Qingxue still hadn't come back from her emotions. She whispered, "What if he's not a good one?"

She could still see her experience and feel her pain in her previous life. She was so painful that her body was about to tremble.

s.h.i.+ Baoning paused, and she looked a bit hesitant in her eyes for a moment. Then she said more firmly, "No! Grandma's choice for us must be good! As the juniors, it will never be wrong for us to listen to her."

"Well..." s.h.i.+ Qingxue suddenly laughed in a low voice, but there was no smile on her face.

Although she and s.h.i.+ Baoning had the same mother, because the latter was weak, they didn't get close to each other in the previous life. She didn't realize that her sister had regarded Mo Shujun as a G.o.d and would obey every word that Mo Shujun had said.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue clenched her fists under her sleeves. She was about to refute, when an old servant came over, and it was exactly Mammy Ru who accompanied Concubine Liu.

"Greet to two ladies."

There was someone else at present, and s.h.i.+ Qingxue couldn't say it no matter how resentful in her heart. She could only smile and ask, "What is the matter, Mammy Ru?"

Mammy Ru glanced at them two, and said straightforwardly, "Which one of you is Sixth Lady of the s.h.i.+ Family? The Concubine is calling. Please come with me!"

The son was just declined by s.h.i.+ Qingxue before. At this time, the mother sent a person to call her again. Wouldn't they be tired of it?

s.h.i.+ Qingxue thought that Liu Yiyi was here to find some respect for Mo Junhao. She could decline Mo Junhao, but she had no reason to decline the Concubine's calling. She could only nod and followed Mammy Ru out.

Qingxue took Xia Mang and walked on the path in the palace with red bricks and green walls on both sides.

As she walked, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

Even if everyone was attending the palace banquet at this moment, the path in the palace shouldn't be so deserted, and this road obviously didn't lead to the Concubine's room.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue stopped, and whispered, "Mammy Ru, this is not the way to Liuye Palace. May I ask where Her Majesty would like to meet me?"

Mammy Ru glanced at her arrogantly, and gave a sign at the corner. Two tall guards jumped out of the corner immediately, when they stood on the path, they blocked s.h.i.+ Qingxue's way.

Then she said coldly, "The Concubine will meet you in the Peach Blossom Forest. You can just follow me. Why do you say so much?"

If s.h.i.+ Qingxue didn't realize it was a trap at this time, she would really be a fool.

But there was no way out, even if she took Xia Mang, she could not escape from the two strong guards. Besides, Mammy Ru was indeed the servant of Liu Yiyi.

Even if Liu Yiyi wanted to trick her at this moment, she could only confront the difficulties.

They continued to walk again, and the two guards also followed behind them. They didn't give s.h.i.+ Qingxue any chances to escape.

"Sixth Lady..." Xia Mang also realized that something was wrong, and grabbed s.h.i.+ Qingxue's sleeve, whispering.

Did they really have to go there when they knew clearly that there was a danger?

s.h.i.+ Qingxue gritted her teeth and stopped. When others looked at her, she took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her forehead. He said softly, "I didn't notice today when I went out and wore a thick cloak. It really makes me sweat so much."

As she spoke, she slowly took off the water-blue hooded long caper and handed it to Xia Mang, "This is made of the brocade rewarded by Empress Dowager. You should take it back and carefully put it away. If it is dirty, you will be punished."

Xia Mang was stunned first, and looked at the cloak handed to her without reaction. At last, Qingxue patter her and let her go hurriedly, and then she understood that s.h.i.+ Qingxue was asking her to take the cloak to ask for help!

She immediately answered, "Yes! I'll go immediately."

But the two guards were still there as if they were guarding a door, and Xia Mang couldn't get through.

s.h.i.+ Qingxue looked at Mammy Ru, and said casually, "Her Majesty has called for me, but she hasn't said that I have to bring a servant, right? Moreover, if the cloak rewarded by Empress Dowager was broken, would you want to be killed for it?"

While talking, she also gave Xia Mang a sign to took two steps forward, and the two guards were really forced to step back a little, and didn't dare to touch the cloak.

Then Qingxue raised her eyebrows and looked at Mammy Ru, implying, "If you don't let my servant go, then we should all stay here."

Mammy Ru was unwilling to cause trouble, and thought that a little servant couldn't make a change to this thing. She waved her hand and make the guards let go of her, and said, "Now can we go on?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue watched Xia Mang's back disappear into the night, but she was not at all relaxed.

Could Xia Mang really find anyone to save her?

Who could stop Liu Yiyi's tricks on her?

She followed Mammy Ru to move forward, but silently planned in her heart that she still had to save herself.

So after just a few steps, s.h.i.+ Qingxue stopped again.

Mammy Ru gave her an impatient glance, "What's the matter this time, Sixth Lady?"

s.h.i.+ Qingxue shrugged innocently, "Nothing, I'm just tired."

Mammy Ru, "..."

She was also an experienced servant beside Concubine Liu, and she had done a lot of things like this. Everyone would follow her hurriedly after hearing the call, for fear that the Concubine would be impatient.

But this one didn't show her respect at all, but also constantly postponed and resisted. She wasn't afraid to make Concubine Liu mad at all.

Mammy Ru looked cold and snorted, "Sixth Lady, if you keep inattentive and it is delayed because of you and the Concubine blames it on you, don't say that I haven't reminded you in advance!"

Even threatening was used, but for s.h.i.+ Qingxue, those words were useless.

She was even tougher than Mammy Ru, and said coldly, "Well? Mammy Ru means that I deliberately delay time? I am not talented, and I don't have cla.s.s, so I'm not qualified for you to call me Master. But I'm the daughter of First Master of the s.h.i.+ Family. Does Mammy Ru even think that the s.h.i.+ Family is not qualified?"

Such a serious guilt was she accused of suddenly, and Mammy Ru was instantly astonished.

At this moment, how did she suddenly become not respectful for the s.h.i.+ Family?
