The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy

Chapter 188 The Saint's True Appearance

The man turned around and stood, looking down from above, exuding a faint kingly aura.

He looked at Mu Yan and said in a low and hoarse voice, "The princess personally invited me to watch a play, so why wouldn't I come?"

Mu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble His Royal Highness Prince Han to take me inside to watch the show."

Mo Yuche smiled as he looked towards the extremely luxurious pleasure boat in front of the huge lantern in the middle of the lake.

"Are you sure, tonight?"

Mu Yan said confidently and calmly, "It must be tonight."

According to the schedule, after the New Year's Day, the Dongfan delegation will leave Beijing and return.

Before that, Dongfan would certainly try to propose a marriage to the Emperor of Northern Qi.

If Mo Xingchen wanted to bring King Xuan Mo Wenjing and Si Yao together, he would definitely choose to take action tonight.

And the location was undoubtedly the luxurious houseboat in front of them.

This pleasure boat is exclusively for the royal family. Only members of the royal family can enter or bring others in.

Therefore, Mu Yan specially invited King Han to come and be her guide. After all, she wanted to witness this good show with her own eyes.

At the same time, in the royal painting boat...

King Xuan Mo Wenjing led a group of attendants onto the ship. At this time, there were already many royal family members and invited friends on the ship, waiting for the riddles to appear at noon.

Mo Wenjing immediately saw Mo Xingchen who was surrounded by a group of people. The people around him were all famous nobles in the capital, and they were all good at eating, drinking and having fun.

A hint of disdain flashed across Mo Wenjing's calm eyes. His fourth brother was really hiding his true intentions well. He had obviously won over many followers in the court, but on the surface he was still hanging out with these playboys who had been abandoned by the family, in order to maintain his image as an idle prince.

But even so, didn't he still reveal his true colors in the end, and was discovered by him?

"Second brother, why are you here too?"

When Mo Xingchen saw Mo Wenjing coming, he hurriedly pretended to stagger over to salute.

Mo Wenjing chuckled: "Why? Can't I come to this place?"

Mo Xingchen shook his head quickly, but a sly look flashed in his eyes. "I have absolutely no such intention, but my second brother is always busy with official duties and rarely participates in such activities, so I asked this question. I am being rude."

Mo Wenjing's tone was as cold as iron: "If I don't come today, won't my fourth brother take advantage of me?"

"What do you mean, second brother?"

Mo Wenjing whispered in Mo Xingchen's ear: "Don't pretend. Don't think I don't know why you came here today. Is it to meet the Saint of Dongfan?"

Just as Mo Xingchen was about to explain, he heard a noisy sound coming from outside the door.

Everyone was amazed and exclaimed, "Is this the Saint Girl of Dongfan Country?"

“It’s simply stunning!”

The next second, a woman with a face as beautiful as a fairy walked slowly in from the door.

Even Mu Yan, who had just boarded the boat, was stunned when he saw this face.

Although this face looks exactly like Mu Wan in the past, her facial features are much more delicate than before, her nose is taller, her eye sockets are deeper, adding a touch of the charm of an exotic beauty.

More importantly, the expression and temperament between her eyebrows are very different from before. In the past, Mu Wan was a concubine's daughter, so it was inevitable that she was timid and petty when doing things.

But the person in front of him had a flamboyant look and was very confident.

If Si Yao hadn't looked around just now and revealed stubborn hatred when his eyes fell on her, she would have thought that the person in front of her was not Mu Wan.

However, what confused her was that Mu Wan's face was destroyed by herself when she was in Dali Temple. But now her skin was as white as snow, without any flaws.

When she was confused, Mo Wenjing had already walked up to Si Yao and asked with burning eyes: "I didn't expect the Saint Lady would come here today!"

But in her heart she was secretly delighted. She had already been attracted by Si Yao's graceful figure at the palace banquet, but at that time her face was covered with a veil, so her appearance could not be seen clearly.

He was once worried that the person beneath the veil might be an ordinary-looking person. But now, his heart is finally at ease.

He had also received news that the Holy Maiden of the Dongfan Kingdom came to Beijing for the purpose of marriage. If he could marry Si Yao, then wouldn't his position as the crown prince be a sure thing?

Originally, he had set his sights on Mu Yan, but who knew that bitch Mu Xue would actually betray him, causing him not only to fail to gain the support of Marquis Zhongyong, but also to completely draw a line between them.

Now there is a new hope after a dark period.

Mo Xingchen, who was far away, couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw Mo Wenjing's fiery expression. It was time to add fuel to the fire, so he hurried forward and said, "The Saint Lady's coming today really makes our entire pleasure boat shine!"

Anything becomes more valuable when there is competition, and people will want it more.

Sure enough, when Mo Xingchen showed up, Mo Wenjing's face suddenly turned ugly. He said in a bad tone, "Looking at the fourth brother, it seems that he knew that the Saint Girl would come here today?"

It seems that my guess was correct. Mo Xingchen had received the news in advance that the Holy Maiden of Dongfan would come to participate in the Lantern Festival, so he came here specially to meet her by chance.

Thinking of this, his hatred towards Mo Xingchen deepened even more.

He wants to use this opportunity to gain support from the Dongfan Kingdom and compete with me for the position of crown prince. He doesn't even consider his own identity. It's just a dream.

Mo Xingchen replied humbly, "Why do you say that, second brother? I am not a god, how can I have the ability to predict the future?"

Mo Wenjing snorted coldly: "It seems that Fourth Brother knows that he is not a god, and he can always remember his identity. He is quite self-aware."

These words were full of innuendo and irony, and they also warned Mo Xingchen to remember his identity as the son of a merchant woman.

However, after hearing these words, Mo Xingchen was not angry at all, and his face remained calm.

Si Yao, who was standing aside, saw Mo Xingchen being wronged, and a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, so she cleverly changed the subject and said, "I didn't know that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan would also come to participate in the lantern riddle conference today. This made Si Yao panic. I wonder if it would disturb His Royal Highness's interest."

When Mo Wenjing faced Si Yao, his expression immediately changed. "Saint, you are joking. You are our honored guest from Northern Qi. It is a blessing for me that you can come here today. I just didn't know that Saint is also interested in guessing riddles?"

Si Yao raised her eyebrows slightly and answered slowly: "Guess a riddle? Si Yao doesn't have such talent, but I have always admired smart people, so I came here today to see which talented person can stand out and win the championship."
