Resisting the Wind and Splendor

"I never expected that the daughter of a high-ranking official would actually wear a thin gauze dress and perform a lewd dance in front of so many men just to seduce Prince Ning."

"Now that you mention it, Prince Mo, I seem to recall something. I don't know who told me, but before Princess Ning got married, she was indeed constantly pestering Prince Ning."

"You saw her doing a striptease too?"

"No, but how could Prince Mo be wrong if he said it himself?"

"That's true. King Mo is of noble status, so it's impossible for him to lie."

"This Princess Ning is really... really shameless."

People around her were whispering amongst themselves, and of course, everyone was speaking very quietly, but even so, quite a few words still reached Liu Jinlian's ears.

She cried out angrily, "I didn't! I didn't! It was Prince Mo who slandered me! I..."

But who listens to her?

Just as she had been so aggressive towards Chu Xiaohe and Tuoba Liuli earlier, not giving them any chance to explain, no one was willing to listen to her explanation at this moment.

"This is called 'an eye for an eye.'" Therefore, when the Great Demon King makes a move, he will leave you utterly defenseless.

“However,” Chu Yueli looked at him, unable to hide the amusement in her eyes, “you’re a grown man, bullying a girl, aren’t you afraid people will gossip about you?”

"In my eyes, there is no distinction between men and women when it comes to those who bully Xiao Ali's family." Lu Beimo said with a half-smile.

Tuoba Liuli, standing to the side, looked at his tall figure with mixed feelings.

Is this still the Prince Mo he knows?

Since the Mo King and his third brother met, they have known each other for nearly ten years. Tuoba Liuli had never seen the aloof and eccentric Mo King get involved in such quarrels between girls.

In the past, this kind of thing was something that Prince Mo found utterly disgusting.

After being with Chu Yueli, he changed a lot and was no longer the Brother Mo he knew.

But this version of Prince Mo is more down-to-earth and reassuring.

She subconsciously tugged at Chu Xiaohe's sleeve.

Chu Xiaohe looked down at her gradually flushing cheeks and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"Wait...can I sit next to you?" Her eyesight was failing, and the palace was full of wicked people. It felt like every step she took was being watched by countless eyes, waiting for her to make a fool of herself and laugh at her.

When her eyesight was good, she didn't care at all; if she was unhappy, she would directly retaliate.

But after she lost her sight, she had no ability to fight back and could only be bullied.

But she is ultimately a person of Dongzhou, and can be considered an envoy from Dongzhou. What if the emperor does not allow her to be with Brother Chu and Ali?

"Why not?" The one who answered her was Lu Beimo, who was standing next to Chu Yueli: "Ali's position is yours."

"For me?" Tuoba Liuli was taken aback. "Then, where will A-Li sit?"

Chu Yueli was both amused and exasperated; the Great Demon King clearly had ill intentions.

Sure enough, Lu Beimo snorted and said, "You took Ali's place, so she has nowhere to go. I will reluctantly take her in."

"Since it's a forced task, there's no need for that," Chu Yueli sneered.

The arrogance in the Great Demon King's eyes vanished in an instant, and he hurriedly coaxed softly, "Of course it's not something I'm doing reluctantly, I'd love to do it. Ali, you don't want to upset the Seventh Princess, do you? Come to my Mo Wang Mansion and give your seat to the Seventh Princess, okay?"
