Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

In the imperial study, Noble Consort Dehui had just been scolded by Emperor Jing. She came out of the imperial study with red eyes and saw Xiao Mo sitting in a wheelchair from a distance.

She gritted her teeth, turned around and left. The failure of the poisoning made her lose face in front of Emperor Jing. She had to find a way to gain Emperor Jing's trust first.

As for Xiao Mo, if he wanted to stir up trouble in the capital, he would be underestimating her.

When Xiao Mo entered the imperial study, Emperor Jing was painting. Not far away, sitting on a chair was a little palace maid who was dressed pretty and coolly. The bun the palace maid wore was not the one worn by girls from the palace, but the one that girls from ordinary families usually wore. However, the clothes she wore were not something that girls from ordinary families could afford.

Xiao Mo sneered at Emperor Jing's bad taste.

"I heard that a maid was just beaten to death in your house. What happened?"

"Father, there is a maid in my mansion who was so bold that she even dared to poison the princess. Naturally, I cannot keep her. In order to make an example of her, I made a big fuss."

"I also heard that this matter involves Imperial Noble Consort Dehui?"

"I don't know. I have interrogated the maid who poisoned her, and she didn't say anyone instructed her to do so."

"Oh."

Emperor Jing put down his brush and picked up his painting to examine it carefully.

She seemed to be in a good mood and looked for a long time before she spoke.

"I see. Damn those gossipers in the capital. Such a common thing has been spread into a mess. It seems that they should be properly controlled."

Emperor Jing did not mention the matter of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, and Xiao Mo did not say that it was Imperial Noble Consort Dehui who wanted to poison Ye Jintang.

But both of them knew clearly in their hearts that all this was just a cover-up.

If he mentioned it, Emperor Jing would not believe her, and might even reprimand her for easily believing the words of a maid. As for the so-called evidence, Emperor Jing would be even less likely to believe it.

Sometimes it's so ridiculous that you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.

The father and son played guessing games for a long time, but Emperor Jing didn't say anything and let Xiao Mo go.

He didn't even ask Ye Jintang, let alone Madam Qi.

For a moment, Xiao Mo was a little unsure about what Emperor Jing was thinking.

Perhaps Emperor Jing was just testing him. If he reported Imperial Noble Consort Dehui today, he didn't know whether he could leave the palace smoothly.

Xiao Mo came out of the palace and before returning to the palace, he saw several teams of soldiers patrolling the streets. When they came across a group of tea stalls, they stepped forward and dispersed them without saying a word. They did not allow them to gather together to talk, let alone discuss royal affairs.

Looking at the patrol team on the street, Xiao Mo felt amused. This was how Emperor Jing acted. He knew it was Imperial Noble Consort Dehui who had murdered him, but he pretended that nothing had happened.

The reason was very simple. At the moment, he still needed Imperial Noble Consort Dehui to help him deal with some matters in the court. If Imperial Noble Consort Dehui was arrested, he would have to go to court every day and review memorials that he would never finish reviewing.

This was not the life he had imagined. Now he just wanted to be accompanied by beautiful women and wine every day. As for those damn memorials, he didn't even want to look at them.

Not everyone can sit on the dragon throne. Now that Emperor Jing has sat on it, he is so lazy in his work, which is a disaster for the people of Qin.

As soon as Xiao Mo returned to the palace, he went to see Ye Jintang and told her about his entry into the palace.

"From the beginning, I never thought that the emperor would be able to do justice for me. This matter was just to provoke Imperial Noble Consort Dehui."

Ye Jintang was leaning against a soft pillow, holding a fruit plate with cut peaches and watermelons in his hands.

Xiao Mo, who was standing by, looked at the fruit with envy and couldn't help but pick up a silver fork and eat the fruit in her hand together with hers.

Xiao Mo's sudden action made Ye Jintang somewhat uncomfortable.

The two of them were already quite close to each other, and eating a fruit plate together so intimately was really too intimate. In her opinion, only lovers could do this.

Just when Ye Jintang was confused, Xiao Mo continued, "Imperial Noble Consort Dehui must be furious now. She failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice. Now I'm afraid she wants to destroy the Qin Palace."

"The more anxious and angry Imperial Noble Consort Dehui is, the better it is for us. I really hope she can send someone to assassinate the prince, so that our palace can be lively again."

"If one more attempt doesn't work, we can leave the capital in mid-August."

Xiao Mo took a bite of watermelon and nodded.

"Noble Consort Dehui is vindictive. After suffering such a great loss, she will definitely not let us go easily. It is only a matter of time before she sends someone to assassinate us. We need to provoke her a little bit so that she will not drag this matter out for too long."

At this point, Ye Jintang couldn't help laughing. Xiao Mo hit the sore spot of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui every time. Even if she was mentally normal before, she would probably become abnormal after being stimulated so many times.

"Have you thought of any tricks, my lord?"

"Of course, we will go to visit Madam Qi together tomorrow. As long as we are close to the General's Mansion, I'm afraid Imperial Noble Consort Dehui will want to send someone to assassinate me the day after tomorrow."

"That's great. I was just thinking of sending some food to Sister Yu."

Xiao Mo saw that he was getting along well with Ding Xinji, and the rouge and powder shop run by Ye Jintang was making money again. If the two of them continued to develop this relationship, it would be difficult for Imperial Noble Consort Dehui to keep her position as Imperial Noble Consort, let alone become the Empress.

The two of them were chatting about how to stimulate Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, and before they knew it, the whole plate of fruit was gone.

At first, Ye Jintang was somewhat embarrassed, but by the time he finished the fruit plate, that trace of embarrassment had long gone.

Sometimes habits are really terrible things.

Xiao Mo used the trick of boiling a frog in warm water to slowly infiltrate himself into Ye Jintang's life and make him become a part of her.

As the sun sets, the lights in the house are turned on, and Liuli, who had been out for half the afternoon, finally hurried back to the palace.

"Master Mu has agreed to see the Queen."

Liuli ran into the house excitedly and saw Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang leaning against each other, not knowing what they were looking at.

She was halfway through her sentence when it got stuck in her throat. She didn't know whether to say it or not.

"My lady, I will come back later."

Having said that, Liuli turned around and ran away in a hurry again.

"Hey, Liuli is not young anymore, why is she still so irritable?"

Xiao Mo raised the corners of his lips slightly, and slowly rolled up the thunder bomb blueprint in his hand.

"I'll show the blueprints to the craftsmen first, and then look at the production costs. Dinner is about to start, so don't talk to Liuli for too long."

"My Lord, have you noticed that you are meddling in more and more matters, and you are almost becoming my mother?"

Xiao Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He just wanted to spend more time with Ye Jintang.

"We will be leaving for Ningchuan Prefecture soon. Jintang, you should also make preparations in advance. You should list out what and who you need to bring."

"We must leave immediately once the emperor's decree comes down, lest Imperial Noble Consort Dehui reacts and obstructs us."

"I understand. We're going to Ningchuan Prefecture, so we need to prepare more food and daily necessities. I should be able to write a rough plan in the next few days, and we can discuss it together later."

"it is good."

Xiao Mo still has great confidence in Ye Jintang's ability to do things.
