The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"Yes, Your Majesty." Situ Honglei said obediently. After that, she glanced at Situ Yaorao and said, "Sister, don't forget the Situ family."

After saying that, he also left. After they all left, Tan Tai Wu Shang naturally would not stay, so he stood up, apologized to Tan Tai Wu Yue, and left with Leng Qing Ling.

After everyone left, the place became deserted. Tantai Wuyue only smiled faintly, but there was a lingering loneliness between his brows.

"Why are you unhappy?" Situ Yaorao asked.

"It seems like I disturbed them. It's like this every time. Whenever I come, they will stay away, for fear of getting too involved with me." Tan Tai Wu Yue said helplessly.

"Because you're not in the same group as them. Look, aren't Tantai Yunyi and the Seventh Prince both very respectful to you?"

Situ Yaorao said.

Upon hearing this, Tantai Wuyue shook his head, "That's different. Oftentimes, I envy people like Old Six and his gang, who are so unrestrained and crazy. Old Six is ​​tolerant and allows them to show their true nature. I, on the other hand, can't do that. So, whether it's Yun Yi or Old Seven, they treat me with respect, but they can't treat me like my closest relatives."

"But they are willing to give their lives for you."

"That's because I'm their king." Tan Tai Wu Yue's tone was still helpless. Situ Yaorao finally understood why Tan Tai Wu Yue was unhappy.

This man wasn't as cold and aloof as others thought. He simply wasn't very sociable. And more often than not, the mystery he revealed after others left was simply loneliness.

Seeing him like this, Situ Yaorao's eyes fell on the zither. She walked over and began to play according to Nangong Ling's instructions. The sound was intermittent and even a little out of tune. However, Situ Yaorao played very seriously.

Tantai Wuyue was stunned by what she heard. After Situ Yaorao finished playing, she looked at the man and smiled, "Does it sound good?"

"This is the most awful piano music I've ever heard. But... I like it very much." Tantai Wuyue's tone was very soft, with a hint of tenderness. Situ Yaorao heard this and walked to his side with a smile: "I don't know much, and I don't have any talent. But I will always be with you. Until... the day you get married."

"So cunning." Tan Tai Wu Yue sighed lightly.

"It's not that I'm cunning, but this is all I can do. If I were to watch you marry the Crown Princess and be with her, and if you wanted me to accompany you, I think I wouldn't be able to help but kill you." Situ Yaorao said with a ferocious look on his face.

Tantai Wuyue couldn't help but laugh: "If your words get out, you'll probably get beheaded."

"If one day, I die, what's the harm?" Situ Yaorao said. But as soon as she said it, she was scared. Because she was very serious. This made Situ Yaorao feel uneasy.

Normally, she would never have such thoughts. Why today?

"Are you full?" Tan Tai Wu Yue asked.

"kindness."

"I'll take you home." Tantai Wuyue's tone was very light, but it made Situ Yaorao confused. She felt that he seemed angry.

"You're angry?"

"No, I'll take you home." Tantai Wuyue's voice turned cold. Situ Yaorao was also angry when she heard it, so she didn't say anything and just let him take her hand and leave.

Tantai Wuyue had never felt so uneasy before. But Situ Yaorao's words had just made him uneasy. He imagined that if one day she really died because of his marriage, the thought would make him feel so miserable that he wished he were dead.

He had never wanted anything so much before. But she was the only one he didn't want to let go.

Situ Yaorao didn't know what Tan Tai Wu Yue was angry about. When she reached the door of Lan Yi Pavilion, she gritted her teeth and said, "I was just joking. Don't be upset."

"I know." Tan Tai Wu Yue nodded, gently touched her head, then turned and left.

Situ Yaorao was completely bewildered, having no idea how she had offended this gentleman. But she felt more helpless than anything else. She still didn't understand Tan Tai Wu Yue well enough.

"Miss, you are finally back." Lian'er saw Situ Yaorao coming back and hurried to greet her.

"Where are Mozhu and Yusheng?" Situ Yaorao said.

"Over there." Lian'er pointed at the two people drinking in the corner. Situ Yaorao took the opportunity to look over there, then walked over and said, "You two, drinking again in broad daylight."

"Situ? What happened?" Yu Sheng asked indifferently.

"Princess Wuyan has agreed to meet Mozhu." Situ Yaorao said.

Mo Zhu was so frightened when he heard this that he stood up instantly: "Are you sure? Is she really willing to see me? Does she no longer hate me?"

"She just agreed to see you, but we must be able to let her leave the palace." Situ Yaorao said.

Mo Zhu's expression instantly fell when he heard this: "Haha, do you want to leave the palace this time? She really hasn't forgiven me yet. I want to see her, but I'm just being used."

"Well, did you see it?"

"Of course I have to meet her. No matter if she wants to use me or not, as long as I can be with her, there is nothing I can't do. I will arrange this matter." Mo Zhu said, and stood up to go out.

Situ Yaorao hurriedly supported him: "I said, you are wobbling all over, where do you want to go?"

"I'm going to find her."

"That's enough, you're not allowed to see me." Yu Sheng frowned.

"No, I want to see her. I want her to tell me in person." Yu Sheng said sternly.

"She just wants to use you to leave the palace. Do you want to see her anyway?"

"At least, she's still willing to use me. It's better than not being able to see each other for all these years. Yu Sheng, if someone as smart as you is willing to be used by others, how much more so is I?" Mo Zhu said.

"That's different. Don't you know who the Smokeless Princess is?"

"I know, but what can I do? As long as she is willing to see me, that's enough." The man said with a chuckle.

"Really? I haven't seen you for years. I heard you were coming down the mountain, so I rushed over. I thought you had made some progress, but when we met, I heard this kind of crazy talk."

At the door, the man's voice sounded faintly with a hint of sarcasm.

Situ Yaorao looked over in surprise when she heard the sound. She saw Mo Shu, who had just been playing the piano, standing at the door with the Ninth Prince. Mo Shu's face was pale and he looked even weaker.

On the side, the Ninth Prince looked at Mo Zhu in surprise. Then he looked at Situ Yaorao and said, "Why do I see you, a woman, again?"

Situ Yaorao smiled when she heard this: "Your Highness, this is exactly what I wanted to say. I saw you when I was having dinner outside, then I went home and took a break. And then I saw you again. You really are haunting me."

"Isn't this the Yu family's shop?"

"Sorry, the name of this store is now Situ." Situ Yaorao said with a smile.

When the Ninth Prince heard this, he felt very sick.

"You're still the same, indifferent to everything." Mo Zhu looked at Mo Shu and said coldly. Mo Shu was equally indifferent when he heard this: "That's because you're being unreasonable. Back then, because of that woman named Wu Yan, you caused our Mo family to suffer unrest. Now you want to harm our Mo family because of that woman? Do you know how much the Mo family has paid because of you? Mo Zhu, if you insist on continuing to have contact with that woman and continue to let her use you, then you should sever ties with the Mo family first. At least this way, I won't have to see my mother so sad and my father's hair turning white."

As Mo Shu spoke, he started coughing.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zhu lowered his head and said nothing.

"Why don't you speak? Why? You don't dare? That's right, besides using the resources of my Mo family, what else can you do? Without the Mo family, you are nothing. And you still want to be with that woman. How dare you break off ties with the Mo family?"

Mo Shu taunted.

Situ Yaorao was completely stunned. She had never expected that the seemingly weak Mo Shu would be so powerful when he became venomous.
