Unexpectedly, Chifeng actually left and came back, "Miss Mo, this New Year's gift is given to you by the prince alone."
Mo Lan took the gift sealed with red oil paper and felt it was a book.
"Please Sir Chifeng thank the prince on my behalf!"
Chifeng nodded, glanced at Mo Lan with a smile in his eyes, turned around and left.
Mo Lan immediately opened the oil paper and said, "This is..."
This was the first auction item in Dingyin Pavilion yesterday. Mo Lan picked up the skill book in her hand. It was the candlelight ax shadow she wanted.
It seemed that her rate of making money was going to increase. Since this skill book was given to her by Gong Yi, it could no longer be used by Mo Ran. She wanted to find a better skill book for Mo Ran before entering the academy.
Qin Mansion
Qin Jixi looked at Gong Yi, who was sitting next to her grandfather, and the admiration in her eyes almost overflowed. If her father hadn't coughed lightly to remind her, she might have lost her composure.
She gathered her thoughts, stabilized the tea cup in her hand, and walked up to Gong Yi. She had changed into a rose-red dress today, which made her face look like a peach blossom, and her voice was as soft as pinching water, "Your Majesty, please use the tea! "
Gong Yi nodded slightly and took the tea from her, "No need to be restrained, just call me your uncle according to your seniority!"
Qin Jixi was a little panicked for a moment, and the smile on his lips could hardly be held back. His voice was trembling, and he said with a cry, "Yes, uncle."
Even so, Gong Yi still didn't raise his eyes and stared at the ground. He didn't get up until the servants finished moving the things, "Uncle, please, I will leave first!"
Qin Yanzheng stood up immediately, bowed his hands and sent Gong Yi out of the door.
Qin Wenhao walked up to his daughter and said, "Xi'er, don't forget your mission, don't think about things you shouldn't!"
Qin Jixi retracted the tears in her eyes, glanced at Qin Jiyan standing outside the concierge, gritted her teeth, "It's the father, my daughter knows!"
Qin Wenhao snorted and walked out. The person at the door immediately saluted, "Second uncle!"
Seeing the person who didn't even want to look at him slowly disappear around the corner of the corridor, Qin Jiyan unfolded his fan, fanned the wind and turned around to leave. Even in the winter, he didn't know whether he was cold or not.
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, as in previous years, the imperial concubine's post was delivered to Mo Mansion early.
Mo Lan changed into palace clothes and applied a thin layer of makeup on her face, but the big red spots couldn't be covered up. The nanny who came to deliver the stickers didn't hide the disgust in her eyes.
He even urged her to hurry up several times, and even impatiently threw down the curtain when Mo Lan got on the sedan.
When we arrived at the entrance of the palace, we had to get off the sedan chair and walk. Several people leading the way deliberately accelerated their pace. In their eyes, a loser like Mo Lan would definitely not be able to keep up.
Mo Lan followed them easily, and even gradually controlled the speed of forward movement.
"Mother, Miss Mo is here."
Su Xilian was playing with the cat on the soft couch. When she heard the announcement from her grandma, she rolled her eyes and said, "Please come in quickly!"
Not to mention Grandma, even Mo Lan was a little surprised. She usually waited for this lady in the side hall. At that time, she was clumsy, waiting from morning till night, so hungry that her chest pressed against her back.
Originally, she planned to stay in the space directly after entering the side hall. No one would care about her during this period.
Mo Lan followed her mother in and stared at the carpet at Su Xilian's feet, the fur of a fourth-level spirit fox. Damn, he was so rich!
"I thought it would take a while for you to arrive, but it's so fast. Aunt Su, go and prepare tea and snacks. I want to have a good chat with Mo Lan."
Su Xilian was wearing a rouge red coat and skirt today, with lotus flowers embroidered with silver thread on it, but no matter how Mo Lan looked at it, there was a hint of peony in it.
"My dearest lady, I see you, your concubine. May your concubine be blessed with peace and prosperity." She bowed politely and kowtowed. Mo Lan swore that she would never enter the palace again in this life!
Su Xilian put down the white cat in her hand, stepped forward and helped Mo Lan up, "This kid is so polite. Speaking of which, you want to call me aunt, haha, but after the New Year, you have to change your tune!"
There was a bright smile on her face, and all the calculations in her eyes fell into Mo Lan's eyes.
Mo Lan tried her best to pretend to be shy. Although she didn't know why Su Xilian suddenly changed her attitude, it was definitely a dangerous signal.
She will go to college to study in the next year, and her ability to practice will definitely be exposed by then, and it will be difficult to break off the engagement!
"When the empress said this, Mo Lan's face turned red. It's the fifth prince..."
Su Xilian listened to Mo Lan's words and looked at the red spots on her face. She complained in her heart and blushed. Your face is already very red, right?
"I have heard that before the Chongyang Palace banquet, Qian'er ran to the door of Mo Mansion and had a fight. I have already scolded him and he has realized his mistake. Your wedding is coming soon. That concubine of the Qian family, you Don’t worry, even if I’m a concubine, I’m not worthy of Qian’er!”
Mo Lan wanted to laugh. Speaking of that matter, Su Xilian should be angry with her. After all, she wrote a letter of divorce to her son in public, and now she actually said that it was Gong Shaoqian who caused the trouble. What value did she have that she deserved? Do this?
"Your Majesty, I forgive you. Mo Lan was a little reckless that day and made the fifth prince unhappy..."
"What's the point? How can a couple not quarrel? Come on, please invite the fifth prince to come over and have lunch with Mo Lan!"
Before Mo Lan could finish speaking, Su Xilian interrupted her and held her hand tightly as if she was afraid she would run away.
Mo Lan resisted the urge to hit someone and continued talking and laughing with her.
When Gong Shaoqian came, he saw his mother holding Mo Lan's hand and chatting animatedly. The red spots on Mo Lan's face made him feel sick to his stomach.
"The son has met his mother and concubine."
Su Xilian stood up immediately and patted the snowflakes on his shoulder, "Why didn't you hold an umbrella, but you remembered to see Mo Lan and forgot?"
"Mother concubine!"
Su Xilian shook her head gently at him, and he immediately frowned and closed his mouth, looking at Mo Lan with anger in his eyes.
After an awkward meal, Su Xilian asked Gong Shaoqian to escort Mo Lan out of the palace.
Even though he didn't want to, there were some things he wanted to say clearly to Mo Lan, so he agreed with an impatient look on his face.
Looking at the vermilion gate not far away, Mo Lan looked at Gong Shaoqian who had been awkward for a long time and planned to take the initiative.
"Fifth Prince, the Imperial Concubine asked me today when I plan to set the wedding date. I wonder what you think?"
Gong Shaoqian punched the stone railing, suppressing his desire to kill, "Don't think that if you make your mother and concubine happy, this prince will marry you. Don't forget, you said you would not marry me." , Mo Lan, I will give you ten days to take the initiative to propose to your father to terminate the engagement, otherwise I want you to look good!"
Mo Lan had a smile on her face. Seeing how angry he was, she felt very happy. If you hadn't rebelled, how could the Mo family have been framed and executed!
Thinking of the Mo family members who died in front of her one by one, Mo Lan's smile was a little bloodthirsty, "Fifth Prince, could it be that Miss Qian can't wait any longer? But I don't want to fulfill her wish. She deserves to be a concubine for the rest of her life." Girl, marry a mediocre person as a concubine!"
"you!"
"Why is fifth brother here?"
The voice coming from behind made Gong Shaoqian resist the urge to strangle Mo Lan. He turned around with a smile that was uglier than crying, "Second brother, my younger brother is sending the Mo family lady out of the palace on the order of my mother and concubine. "
Mo Lan calmed down all her emotions, squatted down and bowed, "My daughter has met the second prince!"
