The old prime minister stopped being secretive and said: "There are many famous ladies in the capital. If your majesty likes anyone, this is the decree."
"Then what if I don't like anyone?"
The Prime Minister was still kneeling there: "There are always flowers that can catch His Majesty's eyes."
Mo Chenyuan smiled: "Then let's hold a daughter's banquet. Invite all the daughters of officials of the third rank and above in the capital. If you want to choose, then choose carefully. You can't be careless about the queen."
"I obey my orders." ?.?????.???
Xiao Zijue was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Your Majesty, do you really want to choose a queen?"
Mo Chenyuan took a sip of tea, and a chill flashed in his eyes: "The Prime Minister wants me to choose, then I will choose for him."
Xiao Zijue lowered his head and sighed softly: "The Prime Minister is too conceited. On the surface, this is a blind date party. I'm afraid you won't be the only one to marry his daughter."
His wolfish ambition is obvious.
He was just bullying the young emperor in an attempt to rule the world. But if you want to realize your ambitions and have a good reason for being a teacher, having a daughter who becomes a queen will add a lot of leverage.
Wanting to deal with him is not that simple.
He served as prime minister for two dynasties, and he handled everything impeccably. Even though he knew that he was making many moves behind the scenes, Mo Chenyuan could not catch his pigtails and could only stand still.
"Your Majesty, you must be on guard against the Prime Minister's plot." Xiao Zijue reminded.
"I'm just afraid that the fish won't take the bait."
Mo Chenyuan suddenly thought of something and smiled softly.
Soon after, news came from the palace that the lantern festival was very lively recently, and the emperor wanted to pay a private visit incognito to see how the public security was in the capital.
After hearing this news, everyone in the court was filled with thoughts and thoughts.
On that day, Mo Chenyuan specially put on a luxurious brocade robe and a jade crown, making him look like a handsome young man.
After arriving at the lantern festival, he held a fan and wandered around. After the disguise, his appearance was five times worse than before, but he was still handsome.
There was no one else around him, only two boys. It looked like a wealthy young man from a certain family was out on a trip.
Some experienced traders deliberately shouted loudly when he passed by.
Mo Chenyuan was completely unmoved and wandered around leisurely.
The lantern festival is very lively. Nowadays, folk customs are more open, and young men and young ladies from various families will also choose this day to see each other.
When Mo Chenyuan walked to the river, many lovers were placing river lanterns.
He didn't want to take a closer look, but by chance he caught a glimpse and saw a familiar figure.
His steps suddenly stopped.
What he saw was naturally Jiang Tian.
The lantern festival was so lively and she was free again, so of course she had to come and take a look.
Jiang Tian took the maid that Mo Chenyuan left for her and had a great time.
She has a plain color and wears plain clothes. She doesn't look very young. Even if someone sees her, they won't stay too much.
It was precisely because no one was paying attention that Jiang Tian let go and played.
But as soon as she put on a fox mask and wanted to try it out, she heard a noise coming from the front.
Curiosity drove her to squeeze over there with her maid.
The two parties involved in the quarrel were a young man and woman, both of whom had extraordinary looks.
Especially that woman, whose appearance can be described as stunning.
When Jiang Tian looked at the man, his expression froze.
Others couldn't recognize her. She was so close to Mo Chenyuan, so it was impossible not to recognize her.
Why is he here?
At this time, the woman had already spoken: "I guessed this lantern riddle first, but you still want to compete with me!"
The woman's tone was extremely angry, but because her appearance was so outstanding, it would only make people think of her delicate appearance, and would not be offensive.
Mo Chenyuan looked at the young woman in front of him calmly and said slowly: "I never fought with you, I just asked how much silver the prize is worth."
The woman paused: "But you asked for the price because you just want it!"
Mo Chenyuan continued: "If you think so, I have nothing to say."
After saying that, he walked around the woman and wanted to leave.
Maybe the woman seemed to wake up and realized that she was messing around, and she quickly tried to hold him back.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Mo Chenyuan stepped aside.
The woman almost fell.
The onlookers smiled unconsciously.
An Ruoyao has never been so wronged!
She is the prime minister's daughter, no matter which banquet she goes to, others will support her!
She almost made a joke at the lantern festival, and she was extremely embarrassed.
But thinking of what her father told her, she gritted her teeth and blushed: "I'm sorry, young master, maybe I misunderstood you just now. If it's convenient for you, I would like to apologize to you."
He knows his mistakes and can correct them, but he is not that stubborn. The people next to him nodded silently.
Mo Chenyuan said nonchalantly: "No need, I have something else to do, so I'll take the first step."
He waved his fan, and the onlookers consciously made way for him.
Seeing that he was about to leave, An Ruoyao stamped her feet and had no choice but to follow.
"Sir, please wait and stay on your way. I will send a servant to your door tomorrow to apologize."
An Ruoyao followed Mo Chenyuan away from the crowd and said softly.
Looking around, except for his secret guards, there was no one else around. Mo Chenyuan's eyes turned cold, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his expression: "Go back and tell your father, a woman with no manners like you, what the hell is wrong with me?"
