it's Xiao Liu and the others. I'll go test their homework for today."Mo Yunjing hummed, "Okay, if Tangtang is tired, let them come tomorrow."An Xuetang smiled. "I'm fine. Ah Jing can stay here for a...Mo Yunjing leisurely picked up the cup she had set down and poured herself another. "It's just some unimportant matters."

As he spoke, he lifted his cup and drank from the same spot where An Xue Tang had just sipped her tea.

An Xue Tang kept staring at his movements, but she didn't realize what he was doing at all.

Only the little brat Mo Junyi noticed his sleazy operation. His embarrassed face flushed red right now, and he silently lowered his head, finding it really embarrassing to watch such a display from Mo Yunjing.

An Xuetang blinked. "Ah Jing, just tell me, what did the dog emperor say Did he force you to marry that woman"

Mo Yunjing's pitch-black and deep eyes narrowed slightly, "It's just an imperial decree based on self-importance, Tangtang needn't mind it."

To onlookers, his actions amounted to blatant insubordination, a defiant challenge to the Emperor's authority!

But who could do anything to him

Mo Junyi pursed his lips, a hint of worry in his voice, "Fifth Uncle, the North Frontier Princess is a matter of great importance. In the future, there will undoubtedly be many voices opposing my mother's position. They will never accept a commoner woman as the rightful princess consort of the North Frontier."

Mò Yún Jǐng coldly smiled, "Does my queen need them to acknowledge her"

An Xuetang simply smirked, munching on the fruit on the table, as if the topic of conversation between the two had nothing to do with her.

Mo Junyi peeled an orange for her and handed it to her, "Mother, don't you want to say anything"

"I took it and started eating, smiling. "What am I supposed to say Anyway, whether I'm the Princess of Beijng or the Fifth Princess... I don't care about any of that."

> "Mo Yunjing's dangerous eyes narrowed slightly, staring at her like that. "

"An Xuetang chuckled and quickly explained, "Ah Jing, don't misunderstand me. I mean... those titles of Princess Consort don't matter to me at all. All I know is you... Mo Yunjing... are mine!!"

Her words instantly extinguished the little temper that had just risen in Mo Yunjing.

He smirked indulgently at her, "Well, I am yours."

"...."

Mo Junyi rubbed his arm, "Can you guys tone it down a bit I'm right here!"

Mo Yunjing glanced at him lightly, "You may leave."

"!!"

Mo Junyi really wants to get angry, he really wants to beat him!!

But he can't beat me... Humph... I'll wait until he grows up a bit more!

An Xuetang smiled and quickly stopped the two from igniting.

"Alright, alright, Zilong, tell me about this woman. What's her story"

Mentioning the woman again, Mo Junyi subconsciously darkened his face. "Her name is Cheng Ruer. Her father is the Minister of Justice. Don't be fooled by her current appearance of fragility; she can be quite cruel."

"Hmm" An Xue Tang raised an eyebrow. "What else do you know"

Mo Junyi didn't know what bad thing he had thought of, he snorted, "Didn't that woman used to live in Wu Shu's mansion I was taken there once by Yun Si, she...she actually chopped at the servants' wrists with a knife one by one, and she also killed a lot of pigeons!!"

"...."

An Xuetang was shocked, she couldn't believe it, that woman was so cruel!

"Didn't she hurt you"

Mo Junyi let out a cold snort. "She wouldn't dare. But she actually wants to force me to write a letter to Fifth Uncle, pretending to be injured and lure him back to the capital to marry her. That woman has quite the mind, doesn't she"

At that, An Xue Tang instantly understood why Mo Jun Yi disliked Cheng Ru'er so much.

Mo Junyi told An Xuetang many things about Cheng Ruer. An Xuetang listened patiently, adopting a mindset of knowing oneself and one's opponent.

But after hearing it, she felt that Cheng Ruer was just a superficial rich girl who wasn't worth her attention.

Such a person... doesn't deserve to be her opponent!

"Mother, what do you want to do by keeping her here"

An Xuetang curled her lips, "Of course, it's to give her a lesson. If she wants to stay here, she has to see if she has the ability."

When Mo Junyi was still wondering what she wanted to do to Cheng Ru'er, Yun Yi walked in.

He saw that Mo Junyi was also there, and the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.

An Xue Tang raised an eyebrow, she reached out and covered Mo Jun Yi's ear, "Yun Yi, speak."

Yunyī twitched the corner of her mouth, but quickly said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, those two maidservants have been dealt with."

..." Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

So fast!

"An Xuetang shook her head with some regret, "I don't know if it was that they were too weak to resist, or if those hungry soldiers were just too ferocious. I didn't expect them to be killed so quickly. It's a pity...a lot of soldiers probably didn't get to play."

"!"

Yun Yi's heart was shocked, thinking to himself, "Could this princess be a devil"

She was truly unlike any ordinary woman. While other women would have turned pale with fear upon hearing such a thing, she, to everyone's astonishment, seemed to think that the two people had died too soon!

Mo Yunjing rather helplessly propped his forehead up and looked at Yun Yi, "Drag it away and bury it."

"Yes."

Yun Yi didn't dare to delay and went downstairs right away.

Mo Yunjing looked at An Xuetang, reaching out to pinch her cheek. "Don't interfere in these kinds of things in the future, lest you soil your hands and eyes. With Yunyi there, you just need to speak up if you want to do anything."

An Xuetang smiled happily, "I didn't do it myself either."

Mo Junyi moved, signaling An Xuetang to let go of him. Actually, he had heard everything; he didn't feel there was anything he shouldn't have listened to.

Well, since she didn't want him to hear it, he might as well just pretend he hadn't heard anything.

"Mother, what exactly does Cheng Ru'er want to do"

An Xue Tang shook her head. "Now we wait patiently and see what she does!"

Mo Junyi and Mo Yunjing looked at each other, both feeling that An Xuetang's smile on her face at this moment was a little... sinister!

At this time, the capital city was far from peaceful.

The news that the Second Prince, Mo Yunren, had his arm and leg cut off spread somehow, and many people felt sorry for him.

After all, everyone knows that the person sitting on the throne must be physically perfect, but now this Second Prince has lost an arm and a leg.

That means he is completely out of the running for the throne.

Mo Yunren, having his bleeding stopped, woke up and flew into a rage. He immediately ordered that all the guards who had been watching over his residence that day be beheaded.

Mo Yunren has always been a smiling tiger. Over the years, he has appeared to be indifferent to fame and fortune but is actually ruthless. He has cultivated a large number of assassins in his hands, and with the support of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after the fall of the Crown Prince, he was considered the most likely candidate for the next Crown Prince.

The death squads he trained also frequently acted, and other princes often found themselves in danger, his handiwork being undeniable.

Now that he's suddenly turned into this ghastly apparition, he naturally can't accept it.

At this moment, summon the leader of the death squad and roar, “I want that Mo Yunchen dead! You immediately send people to chop off his head and bring it to me!” and walked towards Mo Yunjing's study. As soon as they entered, Yunliu outside the door knowingly shut it.Mo Yunjing frowned, "What's going on""Just now, news arrived from the Qingyun Pavilion. Accor...
