The subtle fragrance of cotton needles

Chapter 179 The consequences are disastrous

"Oh..." Mo Xuanxuan felt a little depressed.

But Mo Xuanxuan would not give up. If his second brother could do it, what could he not do?

Mo Yuchen did not say anything to comfort Mo Yuxuan, but as expected, Mo Yuxuan quickly calmed down and showed a confident look.

As expected of someone from Anyue Palace! How could he be defeated by such a small difficulty?!

Mo Xuanxuan thought about it seriously and decided that he still needed to be patient and wait.

Mo Fuchen, however, thought completely differently from Mo Fuxuan.

Tsk, how can I contact Yanyan?

This problem has been bothering Mo Yuchen all the way.

After dinner, Li Guan returned home, and Xia Yanxiang went to Xia Qianxiang's room.

"Knock knock. Asaka."

Xia Qianxiang was just about to go to bed when she suddenly heard Xia Yanxiang knocking on the door.

"Squeak!" It was Xia Yanxiang who came.

"Third sister?"

The weather in February was still as cold as winter. Xia Yanxiang had just recovered. Xia Qianxiang was afraid that Xia Yanxiang would get sick again, so she quickly let Xia Yanxiang in first.

Xia Yanxiang nodded and walked in.

After Xia Qianxiang closed the door, Xia Yanxiang asked, "Qianxiang, have you thought it through?"

Xia Qianxiang was stunned and hadn't yet reacted to what Xia Yanxiang was asking.

Xia Yanxiang didn't ask any further.

"Third sister, are you talking about the matter between me and His Royal Highness Prince Yu?" Xia Qianxiang asked cautiously.

Xia Yanxiang did not answer, she just wanted to know Xia Qianxiang's answer.

Seeing Xia Yanxiang so serious, Xia Qianxiang didn't act coquettishly and told Xia Yanxiang directly: "Third sister, I don't know whether I should take a chance for him."

Xia Yanxiang knew what Xia Qianxiang was worried about. After thinking for a while, she replied, "If you want to get married, I will naturally find a way for you."

Xia Qianxiang laughed at herself and said, "Third sister, I can't rely on you for my whole life. I need to walk my own path in the future."

"Whether or not I want to marry His Royal Highness Prince Zhuo, I have to consider many things in the future, the difference in status, the difference in vision, and even the rules of the royal family. I have to consider all of this."

"Third sister, I am just a concubine's daughter."

For the first time, Xia Yanxiang felt that she could not refute and had no excuse for Xia Qianxiang's words.

Xia Yanxiang's eyes inadvertently revealed a trace of loneliness, which she quickly concealed. She couldn't help but let her throat roll before she said, "Qianxiang, this is not your fault."

How could Xia Qianxiang not know? She knew better than anyone that being born a concubine was not her fault, but it became her biggest shackle.

"Sister, I understand. I have never asked for anything. I am lucky to have escaped the fate of being sent by my father to cling to the rich and powerful. I think my luck has been used up. I won't ask for anything else."

The contentment and peace in Xia Qianxiang's eyes almost burned Xia Yanxiang's heart.

Xia Yanxiang couldn't sleep all night. Xia Qianxiang's words kept repeating in her mind, cutting her heart until it bled.

When Xia Yanxiang had her heart cut out to draw blood, she had never felt as much pain as she did now.

The tragedy of Xia Qianxiang's previous life is what makes Xia Yanxiang most distressed.

The tragedy of the Tu family originated from Xia Yanxiang's inaction, but Xia Qianxiang became a concubine's daughter at birth only because of Xia Liu's coercion, and was destined to have a bad ending in her life.

Although Xia Yanxiang's own life was difficult, she couldn't help but feel sorry for Xia Qianxiang who was also stuck in the quagmire, and wanted to do her best to save Xia Qianxiang.

Xia Yanxiang couldn't help but laugh at herself. She couldn't even control her own life, so why could she not bear to see others having a hard time?

On this cold night, the one who couldn't sleep was Xia Qianxiang, who was stuck in the quagmire.

Is Xia Qianxiang really willing?

Since childhood, my aunt told me that I must recognize my fate. As the daughter of a noble family, there is only one outcome, and I should not try to change it.

But Xia Qianxiang is a human being, someone who refuses to give in. How can she watch herself go to such an end?

In the past, Xia Qianxiang might have really accepted it, but it is different now.

Xia Qianxiang met Mo Yuxuan, met Mo Yuxuan who was like the sunshine.

That man was born into a royal family, but he did not have the scheming and calculations of a prince. He usually did whatever he wanted and said whatever he wanted, which was in stark contrast to Xia Qianxiang's days of walking on thin ice.

Xia Qianxiang began to look up at the sunlight involuntarily, yearning for it greedily.

Xia Qianxiang was like a small flower that emerged from the mud after going through untold hardships, her entire body covered with dirty, undried mud spots.

Mo Xuan, who had never suffered any setbacks, was like the sun that gave spiritual energy to flowers and plants, attracting Xia Qianxiang's constant attention.

After seeing the sunlight, how can you return to the dark mud pit?

Mo Yuxuan wrote to Xia Qianxiang again and again, inviting her to be friends with him again and again. Xia Qianxiang told herself again and again not to be greedy, but in the end she was warmed by the sunshine, succumbed, and followed her heart.

Are you willing?

Xia Qianxiang asked herself.

Be content! The sun is far away and untouchable. It is a blessing for her to be able to see it.

Xia Qianxiang slowly told herself that some things might just require one to touch them lightly, using all one's strength, and that was enough.

Night, when it is quiet, always makes people think too much.

Mo Cheng's handling of this incident did not go too far beyond Mo Yufeng's expectations.

Although the family of the Assistant Minister of Justice had never harmed Mo Yufeng, they were the ones the Queen wanted to force upon him. Even if they were not eliminated now, they would still be a big hidden danger in the future.

Speaking of which, the queen was almost furious when she heard the news.

Doesn't she know that the Queen has trained someone? How could she do such a treasonous thing at this juncture? !

Moreover, the Queen wanted the second daughter of the Minister of Justice to marry Mo Yufeng, so how could she instruct her to disrupt the selection of concubines? !

Moreover, the person who got into trouble was not someone else but the daughter of the Vice Minister of Justice whom the Queen had just mentioned. How could the Emperor doubt the Queen's intentions?

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has issued an edict to demote the Minister of Justice and his family to Lingnan." Bichi said cautiously after looking at the Queen's face.

The Queen actually already knew about this, but the Hanlin Academy had just issued an imperial decree, and the matter was announced to the world.

The Queen was lying on the chaise longue at this time, resting. In the past two days, the Queen had spent a lot of effort to clear herself of suspicion in this matter.

"I understand. Just give the orders on what to do." The queen gave the orders without even opening her eyes.

Regardless of whether the family of the Vice Minister of Justice was bribed or not, he deserves to die for being framed in the side hall for such a short while!

If Concubine Su and Prince Yu had not been there at the time, the Queen would have been suspected.

The Queen has always disliked Concubine Su. Fortunately, this time the Queen dragged Concubine Su and Prince Yu into the water, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
