The cold emperor reigns supreme, the arrogant empress begs for a truce.

Chapter 50: What is the capital city?

As expected, Mo Zhen was really not in a hurry at all.

For several days in a row, he remained steadfast in the post station, not going anywhere, and never sending anyone to the palace to tell Jun Ao that he wanted to see him.

On the contrary, Leng Yuling couldn't stay at the post station, so she begged Mo Xuan to accompany her to go shopping. After seeing the streets of the Southern Chu Kingdom, she was also curious about the national strength of the Northern Desert.

Of course, the main reason was that staying at the post station was too boring, so she preferred to go out for a walk.

After changing her clothes, Leng Yuling and Mo Xuancai went out together. Dongqi was indeed the city where the Northern Desert Emperor lived; in the era Leng Yuling had lived in in her previous life, it was the 'capital'.

"As expected of the capital, it's truly bustling." Leng Yuling said as she walked.

However, Mo Xuan and Zi Yan couldn't understand it.

What is a capital city?

Seeing that Mo Xuan and Zi Yan both looked confused, Leng Yuling finally spoke up to explain: "It's the city where the emperor is located."

Before they could react, Leng Yuling ran ahead, looking left and right, just like someone who had never seen the world.

Mo Xuan was not visiting Dongqi for the first time, and Leng Yuling was also from Beimo. Even though she had not lived in Dongqi since childhood, she should know the strength of the people of Beimo. However, all her reactions made Mo Xuan feel that she was seeing this scene for the first time.

Mo Xuan was very curious about Leng Yuling's reaction.

Before I could ask, Leng Yuling's voice came from the other end.

"Elder sister, I was just on my way to the post station to look for you. I didn't expect to run into you here." The moment Leng Siyu saw Leng Yuling, she immediately stepped forward and hugged her arm, just like close sisters.

However, Leng Yuling's face fell instantly.

She shook off Leng Siyu's hand and asked in a cold tone, "What do you want?" She didn't think Leng Siyu could have anything to say to her, and she really didn't want to see Leng Siyu.

“Of course I came to visit you. It’s been so long since we last met. You’ve been in the Southern Chu Kingdom for several months now.” Leng Siyu seemed oblivious to Leng Yuling’s rejection of her and remained close to her.

"Just talk, don't get physical," Leng Yuling said, taking a half-step back with a stern face.

Only then did Leng Siyu realize that Leng Yuling was rejecting her. She pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "Does elder sister not like Siyu?"

Haha, it's a good thing you could still tell.

Leng Yuling glanced at her, seemingly telling her with her eyes that she truly didn't like her.

Just then, Mo Xuan stepped forward and asked Leng Siyu, "Aunt, this must be the third young lady of the Prime Minister's residence, right?"

"Hmm," Leng Yuling replied irritably.

"It is said that the Cold Mansion of the Northern Desert produces only peerless beauties, and seeing them today, it is indeed true."

As soon as Mo Xuan finished speaking, Leng Yuling continued, "You must have some problem with your eyesight, right?"

Before Mo Xuan could speak, Leng Siyu, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but get excited. Her face was filled with undisguised excitement as she curtsied and said, "Siyu greets the Fifth Prince."

The prince who came to the Northern Desert with Mo Zhen this time was the Fifth Prince, and who else could address Leng Yuling in such a way besides him?

“Since you are the Empress’s sister, there’s no need for such formalities,” Mo Xuan said with a smile, only to receive a glare from Leng Yuling.

Leng Yuling really wanted to ask him which eye he used to see that she and Leng Siyu had a good relationship.

It was obvious that she had been rejecting Leng Siyu.

"Elder sister, why didn't the Emperor of Southern Chu come with you?" Leng Siyu peeked behind her and, not seeing Mo Zhen, couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Leng Yuling smiled and asked in return, "You want to see the Emperor?" After seeing Leng Siyu nod shyly, she continued, "Then go to the post station to find him. What do you want with me?"

In fact, Leng Yuling knew that Leng Siyu only wanted to see Mo Zhen, not her.

On the contrary, Mo Xuan was somewhat surprised by Leng Yuling's attitude towards Leng Siyu, because in his impression, Leng Yuling was not such a harsh person, especially since she was now facing her sister.

"Elder sister..." Leng Siyu, as always, acted coquettishly, pulling and shaking Leng Yuling's hand.

The next moment, she was thrown aside. Neither she nor the original owner had any contact with this Leng Siyu. But after she suddenly changed her identity, Leng Siyu was desperately trying to please her. There must be a reason for that.

On second thought, Leng Yuling suddenly grinned and looked at Leng Siyu, saying, "Good girl."

Leng Siyu and Mo Xuan were both taken aback by her sudden change of attitude and were curious as to why she had changed her attitude so suddenly. They were quite puzzled.

“The weather is nice today, let’s go for a walk together.” Leng Yuling took Leng Siyu’s hand and started walking forward, looking every bit like best friends.

For a moment, Leng Siyu was not used to it. She looked curious, but followed Leng Yuling's steps forward.

Having lived two lives, today was the most satisfying day for Leng Yuling to spend money. She could take whatever she liked without even asking the price, since Mo Xuan was there to pay for it.

Leng Yuling was happy, but Mo Xuan and Zi Yan suffered, having to follow behind her, paying for her things and carrying her bags. The dignified fifth prince of the Southern Chu Kingdom had become nothing more than a bag-carrying lackey.

"This hairpin suits you quite well, do you like it?" Leng Yuling said, and Leng Siyu thought she was talking to her, but the next moment she saw Leng Yuling insert the hairpin into Ziyan's hair bun.

"It looks really nice. Boss, please wrap this up for me too." Leng Yuling always treated people of high status very well. Even if it was just a maid, as long as she was loyal to her, she would never mistreat anyone.

Ziyan hurriedly took the hairpin off and handed it to Leng Yuling, saying in a panic, "Mother... Madam, this servant cannot accept this."

Although she didn't know how much the hairpin cost, if it was something Leng Yuling had taken a liking to, it must not be cheap. And she was just a servant girl; how could she afford such an expensive item?

However, Leng Yuling did not think so.

She glared at Ziyan and said unhappily, "What, do you look down on what I gave you?"

Upon hearing Leng Yuling's words, Ziyan was about to kneel down, but Leng Yuling grabbed her arm and said coldly, "It seems you didn't take my words to heart."

Leng Yuling had told Ziyan before that no matter what happened, she should not kneel down easily. Leng Yuling could not stop her from kneeling to others, but she was the one who should not kneel to her.

Only then did Ziyan suddenly remember what Leng Yuling had said earlier. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Leng Yuling anymore, feeling very guilty.

"This servant knows her mistake." Ziyan slightly raised her eyes to look at Leng Yuling, but seeing that her expression was still slightly angry, she lowered her head again and dared not look at her again.

"Elder sister, she's just a servant girl. If she makes you angry, just replace her. Why get so angry?" She was very unhappy to see Leng Yuling buying hairpins for Ziyan, so naturally she wanted to say something to make Leng Yuling replace Ziyan when she was angry.

"Madam, this servant..."

Ziyan spoke in a panic, but before she could finish, Leng Yuling interrupted her: "Don't take advantage of my feelings for you to refuse my gift. Humph, I'm going to buy it for you anyway."

As she spoke, Leng Yuling put the hairpin on Ziyan's head again.

Everyone was confused.

Sure enough, Leng Yuling's emotions, like the weather in June, can change in an instant.
