Resisting the Wind and Splendor

I don't know what's so good about that vixen. It's one thing for my elder brother to be blinded by her beauty and fall for her, but even my mother accepted her so quickly.

In the past, my mother had extremely high standards when it came to choosing girls who were close to my elder brother. If a girl was not to her liking, she would not even bother to look at her portrait.

But he was so warm and gentle to Chu Yueli that even Lu Yunfei found it unbelievable.

However, none of the people who went in ahead of him were willing to turn around and look at him. The group of people just walked in like that.

There was one more person, who was rushing over.

"Greetings, Ninth Prince!" Chu Xiaohe cupped his hands in greeting.

When Lu Yunfei faced Chu Xiaohe, his attitude was quite good: "Greetings, General Chu... Marquis of Dingbei."

He naturally had a certain fondness for generals who had made meritorious contributions on the battlefield.

Especially since the Duke's family is known for its loyalty and bravery, Lu Yunfei actually liked the entire Duke's family very much, even putting aside the fact that Chu Yueli tricked his elder brother into going to the northern frontier.

He simply didn't like Chu Yueli.

Chu Xiaohe's gaze fell on the girl beside him. Just as he was about to greet her, Qin Muxue took the initiative to say, "Big brother, my name is Qin Muxue. Everyone calls me Xue'er. You can also call me Xue'er."

Lu Yunfei's face darkened. He wanted to speak, but he didn't want to lower himself to her level.

It's one thing for the fourth prince to call Chu Xiaohe "elder brother," but why does she follow suit?

Qin Muxue ignored him, stuck out her tongue, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, they've gone in. I'll take you in."

As he spoke, he actually went inside first.

Chu Xiaohe was somewhat amused and exasperated. This was the Duke's mansion; why did he need someone else to lead the way in his own home?

Lu Yunfei knew what Qin Muxue wanted to do. Just as she took her third step, Lu Yunfei stretched out his long arm, lifted her up from behind, and threw her back outside the courtyard gate of Huiyan Pavilion.

"Your mother told you to wait here, so just wait here obediently. If you try to cause any more trouble, I will immediately send someone to take you back."

Qin Muxue glared at him, so angry she wanted to curse, but dared not speak out.

His temper is the worst in the entire Mo Prince's Mansion, except for that of Prince Mo. Besides, he is good to everyone except her!

This person is absolutely outrageous!

Chu Xiaohe couldn't understand the interaction between the two, but he just smiled and quickly walked inside.

When Consort Yu and Prince Mo came to see his grandfather, he was extremely anxious and couldn't bear to delay for even a moment.

inside the house.

The steward served everyone tea before he and Chu Yueli slowly pushed the old Duke into the main hall.

The old Duke wasn't in the best of spirits, but he was at least lucid at this moment.

In fact, lately the old Duke has been sleeping even more, spending only a quarter of his day awake.

Yu Fei and Lu Beimo came to see him just in time.

Consort Yu had also heard about the old Duke's health condition, so she knew she had to hurry and got straight to the point.

"Does Your Excellency know about Mo'er and Ali? I, Mo'er, have been in love with Ali for many years. It was Mo'er who saved Ali back then, not Prince Jin. Now that they have cleared up their misunderstandings and are in love, I have come to seek Your Excellency's opinion."

She spoke sincerely, without the slightest air of a noble consort. Her sincerity was so rare that even Steward Qin found it truly remarkable.

After a pause, Consort Yu immediately got to the point: "Your Excellency, now that we know about this, I may ask if Your Excellency agrees to let Ali and Mo'er be together?"
