Chapter 90 The Imperial Study: Annulling the Engagement

When Nangong Chun heard that Mo Liuyun wanted to annul the engagement, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't explain why. She used to be eager to annul the engagement, but now that she heard such resolute words from Mo Liuyun, she was not used to it.

Upon hearing Mo Liuyun's words, Nangong Huan looked up at Nangong Chun and asked, "Fourth brother, what do you say?"

"Your subject...is willing!" But the words were not spoken with such reluctance. When the words "willing" came out, Nangong Chun felt as if something was leaving him, and a fleeting sadness welled up in his heart.

Upon hearing this, Mo Liuyun should have been happy, but a strange feeling of unease crept into her heart, which then vanished. Mo Liuyun guessed that it might be a trace of the original owner's remaining consciousness!

Nangong Li was overjoyed upon hearing this, his eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly!

Having sat on the throne for over a decade, Nangong Huan, through interrogating several people, roughly understood that it was Mo Zhixia who had tried to scheme against Mo Liuyun to marry Liu Ping, but instead was outmaneuvered.

The only mistake was that the Green King would chase after them. Logically speaking, if Mo Liuyun cared about the Fourth Prince, he should have let Mo Zhixia marry Liu Ping. Why would he agree to their marriage?! I can't understand this!

However, Nangong Huan could not severely punish the group because of this incident. In the end, Liu Ping apologized to Mo Yunyi for his improper behavior and was given thirty lashes by the guards before being carried out of the palace.

Nangong Huan glanced sideways at Nangong Li, only to see the boy's eyes shining as he looked in one direction, but his lips were upturned. When he noticed Nangong Huan looking at him, he immediately reverted to his usual indifference.

Nangong Huan: Don't think I don't know. I was young once too. That brat was like a block of ice all day, but now he's starting to thaw. That's something to celebrate. I need to tell Yan'er about this.

Who could it be? No! Something's not right. That direction seems to be towards Mo Liuyun's station!

"Does Minister Mo also mean this?" Nangong Huan turned to look at Mo Yunyi.

Mo Yunyi stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I will listen to Yun'er. As a father, I only wish for my daughter's happiness and fulfillment. Nothing else matters!"

Mo Liuyun was deeply moved. This family truly loved him. They didn't blame him for his previous absurd behavior and always stood up for him in times of trouble!

Nangong Huan nodded, thinking of Nangong Li's idea, and then said to Mo Yunyi: "My dear minister, now that we have returned victorious, we will hold a grand banquet tomorrow to celebrate your victory and the soldiers' achievements, and reward them accordingly!"

But there is one more thing, and I ask that you understand my feelings. A ruler's word is law. Since the marriage was already arranged, a royal alliance, there is no room for joking! I still wish to become in-laws with you!

"But since Fourth Prince and your daughter are not destined to be together, their relationship is off. However, to make up for Fourth Prince's indebtedness to Miss Mo, your daughter can choose any of my unmarried sons! What do you say?"

A collective gasp rippled through the crowd! The Emperor's son was being chosen by Mo Liuyun?! This was utterly unprecedented!

Mo Yunyi hurriedly spoke up: "Your Majesty, you must not! The princes are of noble birth, the cream of the crop. My daughter is not only lacking in talent and beauty, but also spoiled and willful! I would never dare to have such high hopes again!"

"Minister Mo, I adore your daughter, and I will never rescind the royal marriage alliance. Do you not find any of my sons worthy of your attention?"

Among my sons, there are a few who are discerning and intelligent. Why not ask Miss Mo for her opinion? She can give me an answer at the victory celebration banquet tomorrow!

"Furthermore, the fourth prince, Nangong Chun, nearly harmed the eldest daughter's reputation. He has been severely punished with thirty strokes of the cane and is now confined for a full month, forbidden from leaving the palace without an imperial edict!" Nangong Huan's tone left no room for argument.

Mo Liuyun and Mo Yunyi had no choice but to accept the imperial decree and express their gratitude!

"Alright, I'm tired. If there's nothing else, you may leave!" Nangong Huan began to dismiss people, without mentioning the punishment for Mo Zhixia at all.

Mo Zhixia hurriedly grabbed Nangong Chun's sleeve, her face covered in tears. Nangong Chun quickly said, "Father, please forgive me. Zhixia has already given herself to me and is mine now. I beg you to grant me a marriage!"

"A marriage decree? Miss Mo should know best why this happened today. Have you asked your mother's opinion? And General Mo's opinion?"

"Your Majesty, Zhixia and I are truly in love. I humbly beg you to grant us your blessing!" Nangong Chun pleaded again.

Nangong Huan looked at Mo Yunyi: "What do you think, my dear minister?"

Mo Yunyi stepped forward again: "Your Majesty, Mo Zhixia lost her virginity before marriage, which disgraced the family. Her birth mother failed to educate her daughter properly. I have decided to divorce her mother and Mo Zhixia. From now on, Mo Zhixia's affairs have nothing to do with the General's Mansion!"

"father!"

"Big brother!"

"Cousin!" Three voices rang out simultaneously! Mo Zhixia never expected that Mo Yunyi would treat her like this for Mo Liuyun's sake!

Mo Zhixia cried, "I'm your own daughter too! How could you treat me like this? I'm a victim too! You only love my sister and don't care about the family's honor!"

“Brother! Although Yun’er is the legitimate daughter, Zhi Xia has always been well-behaved and sensible. There must be some misunderstanding. The Prince of Qing favors her and has requested a marriage decree. Why don’t you give her a chance?” Mo Yunfei stepped forward and stood in front of Mo Yunyi.

Mo Yunyi scrutinized the person before him and sighed, "Second brother, we both know the truth about what happened back then. I have never set foot in Liu Siwan's courtyard in all these years."

Whose daughter is Mo Zhixia? Others may not know, but surely her own mother knows! Yet this girl still wants to use this matter to make me hesitate! She has never appreciated the kindness of others; is it worth it for you to be so considerate of her?

"I'm giving you one more chance today. If she and her daughter are willing to follow you, they will be the legitimate daughters of the second branch of the Mo family. Otherwise, I will not interfere; it's up to His Majesty to decide!"

Mo Yunyi didn't want to reveal this matter in public! It would really damage the family's reputation, but he couldn't bear to see his younger brother, whom he had watched grow up, grieving over a woman who wasn't worth it, spending his days in sorrow and never returning home. So he decided to give him and Liu Siwan a chance.

Mo Yunfei looked at Mo Yunyi in disbelief: "Brother, so you knew all along! Why didn't you say so back then?"

Mo Zhixia: What did she hear? She wasn't Mo Yunyi's daughter, but Mo Yunfei's daughter. In an instant, it felt like she had fallen from heaven to hell!

From the dignified second young lady of a general's mansion, she's become the daughter of a second uncle with no official rank or title, dressed entirely in white?!

Mo Zhixia rushed to look at Liu Siwan, whose eyes darted away. Liu Siwan slumped to the ground. It turned out that her cousin knew everything but had pretended to be stupid for so many years, while Yunfei had been running away, avoiding the awkwardness of living under the same roof! That's why he went abroad to study every year and never returned!

Madam Mo looked at Mo Yunyi and asked, "What exactly happened back then? Why is Yunxia not your daughter, but Yunyi's? Is there some hidden story behind what happened back then?"

Mo Yunyi nodded: "The one who had a one-night stand with Liu Siwan back then wasn't me, it was my second brother!"
