Feng Yuran reached out and held Mo Xuetong in his arms. They snuggled up and did not speak. He lowered his eyes slightly, and it was obvious that he did not want to speak. However, Mo Xuetong was afraid that he would keep it in his heart. She rolled her watery eyes and shook his hand, asking, “Was the He family involved in the matter of Consort Zhao?”
She would not allow Feng Yuran to crazily take revenge on the He family like he did in the past life. After all, no matter how bad the He family was, they were still Consort Xian’s family on the surface. Though they had used the chance that He Yufen plotted against Mo Xuetong to reveal the He family’s scheme in order to cut off all ties with them.
However, this could only separate the He family and King Xuan’s Manor. King Xuan’s Manor could turn a blind eye to the He family’s request for help, but they could not add insult to injury. If Feng Yuran really punished the He family himself, outsiders didn’t know the truth, but only knew that Feng Yuran was ruthless and heartless to his uncle’s family. He would be regarded as heartless, which was not good for Feng Yuran at all.
The best way was to start from Consort Zhao! However, Consort Zhao had harmed Consort Yu’s child this time. Even though it was the Emperor’s child, it had nothing to do with the He family, so it was difficult for them to get involved. Mo Xuetong knew that it was very difficult. She had brought it up at this time partly because she wanted to distract Feng Yuran’s attention, and partly because they could consider the possibility of that.
She had the same idea as Feng Yuran—never allow the He family to get away with it!
No matter what, they had to get revenge for Consort Xian!
Feng Yuran was clear about what Mo Xuetong meant. He rested his chin on Mo Xuetong’s head and stared at the portrait on the wall. He seemed to have returned to his usual composure.
“Ever since Consort Zhao moved into Anhe Palace, Mother had always been very kind to her and treated her as her own younger sister. Mother would give her all the ornaments she liked. I still remember that Mother had a pair of earrings that Father gave her as a gift, and that woman also liked them. She first deliberately mentioned it in front of Mother, but Father gave this pair of earrings to Mother when Mother had just entered the palace, so Mother would not give it to her casually. However, not long after, she broke one of the earrings, and only explained that she was careless. However, what I saw at that time was her smiling proudly behind Mother’s back. From then on, I knew that… she is not so gentle with Mother as she appears.”
“Didn’t you tell Mother at that time?” Mo Xuetong asked in a soft voice.
“Yes, I did. But Mother didn’t believe me. She only said that I was a child who didn’t know how to behave myself and talked nonsense. She even told me not to talk nonsense in the future. But not long after… Mother was killed by her.” Feng Yuran’s eyes grew cold. At that time, he was so young that he couldn’t protect his mother. So he could only see Consort Zhao treat people with two faces. However, his mother thought that he was just a kid and talked nonsense.
“Mother would have been happy if she had known that you were so sensible and wanted to protect her at such a young age.” Mo Xuetong also looked up at Consort Xian in the painting. She always looked gentle, which made people feel warm from the bottom of their hearts. Compared with Consort Zhao’s eyes and brows, Consort Xian was gentler. The warmth that came from her bones could not be imitated by Consort Zhao as she wanted.
“Mother will not die in vain. I will definitely punish the He family,” Feng Yuran stated coldly.
“Aren’t the two members of the He family still in the capital? Do you want to start with He Yuxiu?” An idea suddenly flashed through Mo Xuetong’s mind. She lifted her watery eyes and pushed Feng Yuran’s hand that was holding her away and asked anxiously.
The two brothers of the He family had been controlled by He Yuxiu since they were driven out of the Lian An family. G.o.d knew why He Yuxiu kept them in the brothel. However, she controlled all the daily expenses and made some trouble for them from time to time. If they dared to go out without permission, they would be beaten severely.
Now, the two did not dare to play any tricks, and they all hid behind He Yuxiu obediently.
Hearing Mo Xuetong’s words, Feng Yuran immediately understood what she meant. His lips curved in a cold smiled. “We can indeed start from He Yuxiu. I’ll send Feng Yue there when I get back.”
Even though it was difficult to get Consort Zhao involved in this matter, if the two from the He family were in their hands, they could do something. Feng Yuran heaved a sigh of relief when he thought that he could get revenge for his mother. He reached out to lift Mo Xuetong’s chin and slightly kissed her with his thin, red lips.
Mo Xuetong was not prepared for his sudden kiss. She was scarlet in the face and could not help but elbow him and snarled, “You… we’re in the palace!”
Feng Yuran smiled quietly and blew softly into her ear on purpose. When he saw that her white and delicate earlobe had also turned red, his mood immediately improved. He reached out to hold her in his arms again and then said softly as if he was making a guarantee. “Tong’er, don’t worry. I will protect you all the time. I will never let you be like my mother. I will never allow other women to disturb you.”
He was a.s.suring her that she would be the only woman he would have.
Mo Xuetong’s eyes suddenly widened. They were filled with shock and joy, as well as sweetness that she could not control.
She ignored her blushing face and looked up. There was a great joy in her watery eyes. Even though she did not know what to say at this moment, she had to make him feel her joy. She reached out, wrapped her arms around Feng Yuran’s neck and took the initiative to kiss him on his lips. Then, she placed her hands on his waist and leaned her head tightly into his embrace. She felt that her face was burning everywhere!
“Why was there only one kiss after I spoke to you about my love? It’s too few!” Feng Yuran’s lazy voice sounded in her ear in a pretentious manner. Mo Xuetong pretended to be a coward and buried her head in his arms, remaining still.
“Tong’er, aren’t you going to stop observing mourning for your mother in a few months?” Feng Yuran did not pull her hard. He seemed to have thought of something good, and his voice was filled with a kind of ambiguity that made her heart race. It was indeed only a few months. His face grew even redder when she thought that he asked such a question at this moment.
She twisted her body a few times and said yes in a low voice!
“Then, can we…” Feng Yuran lowered his head and spoke directly into her ear. Feeling the warmth and the man’s strong aura, and hearing his ambiguous words, Mo Xuetong could not say anything else. She could only reach out and pinch his arm forcefully.
The more this man talked, the more shameless he became!
“Ouch, it hurts! Tong’er, you hurt my arm,” Feng Yuran yelled and shook his arm.
Mo Xuetong had planned to ignore him, but he had yelled too miserably. She strained her ears and listened. Then, she heard him mumbling, “My arm is injured. How can I hug Tong’er in the future?”
Mo Xuetong was embarra.s.sed and fiercely pushed him away. Then she pretended to be furious and snapped, “How could I hurt you? How could you get hurt with a light pinch?”
However, regardless of when she spoke or she acted, she was both delicate and beautiful. Her usually pale face was redder, making her look even more beautiful.
Feng Yuran was in a good mood and laughed. He stopped laughing when she was angry from embarra.s.sment and pulled her to sit down on the couch beside him. Then he held her in his arms. “Tong’er, let’s be together forever from now on, okay?”
There was a hint of caution in his gentle words.
“Okay! We will be together forever!” Mo Xuetong did not refuse. She closed her eyes slowly and nodded with a red face. Since G.o.d had allowed her to be reborn and meet the person she loved, she was willing to be with him forever in this life!
Perhaps it was the compensation for her tragic death in her past life, so she was able to meet him in this life. She was willing to pay anything for him!
“Tong’er! Tong’er!” Feng Yuran’s handsome face was covered with uncontrollable excitement as he muttered to Mo Xuetong. He could no longer suppress the joy in his heart. He kissed her delicate, petal-like lips. This time, it not only carried simple gentleness, but also held the deep love that he had for the rest of his life that he would never forget…
Joy, obsession, and love silently flowed in their hot kiss.
When Mo Xuetong was almost out of breath from the kiss, Feng Yuran let go of her. He held her in front of his chest and closed his eyes to calm the excitement in his heart.
How many days before his mother-in-law’s death anniversary? He really couldn’t hold on to it any longer! And there was also the poison in Tong’er’s body…
The person he loved most was by his side, but he could only watch her. He was a normal man. Although he had great endurance, no man could guarantee that he could always control his desires when he faced the woman he loved!
Mo Xuetong came to her senses from the pa.s.sionate kiss. Her cheeks were burning hot, and she subconsciously changed the topic. “Before I came here, Princess Caifeng asked Hu Qianyue to come to me, and I sent her away.”
Feng Yuran lifted the corners of his lips and asked unhappily, “Did they want to bully you? I will take revenge for you later!” Neither of the two women was quiet. If it were not for the fact that there was not much time left, he would not have been able to stand them.
When the banquet was over, no matter who the two restless women belonged to, it had nothing to do with him. He would get someone to clean up the courtyard later. “d.a.m.n, the courtyard has been occupied by these two women, but Tong’er has to clean it up.”
Now that they dared to bully Tong’er, he would deal with them in a while…
“They did want to. But they didn’t expect that I, who was so sick that I was going to die, would be so imposing. Hu Qianyue was shocked and ran away after saying a few words.” Mo Xuetong thought of Hu Qianyue’s embarra.s.sment and her careful observation of her expression at that time. She found it funny, and giggled.
“If you don’t want to see her next time, get someone to beat her out. Just tell her that I said it. How dare an official’s daughter come to my wife’s courtyard and ask to see you. She really thinks too highly of herself,” Feng Yuran harrumphed coldly.
Hu Qianyue’s purpose in coming to the Qin Kingdom was to stir up trouble. Since she liked to stir up trouble, Feng Yuran would make her stay here. He wondered what the Third Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands would think if he knew that his chess piece was left in the Qin Kingdom. According to the news, Hu Qianyue was very likely to be the wife of the Third Prince.
“Oh, did you find a husband for her?” Mo Xuetong rolled her watery eyes and immediately understood what Feng Yuran meant. She could not help but ask Feng Yuran with great interest.
Looking at her bright eyes full of curiosity and looking at him, Feng Yuran smiled and reached out to pinch her pretty nose. Suddenly, he said mysteriously, “If Princess Caifeng knows that Hu Qianyue is going to stay in the Qin Kingdom with her and marry Feng Yuzhen or Feng Yulei, I wonder if she will be ecstatic!”
Mo Xuetong was shocked by his strange thoughts. She blinked her long eyelashes and could not speak for a moment. Hu Qianyue and Princess Caifeng? Both of them were restless!
Feng Yuzhen and Feng Yulei?
No matter which of them she married, they would really have a hard life!
