Chapter 308
Chapter 308
"Xue Zhiyan is obsessed with medical skills, let him be!" Mo Shaoxie said in a low voice.
"I think so too." Shangguan Ziling said softly. She knew that Xue Zhiyan's dedication and passion for medical skills were exactly what she appreciated and respected.
They were not in a hurry as they had been when they came here. They traveled at a leisurely pace. After a few days, they were not far from the capital. They were resting in a woods not far from the capital, and the secret guards were roasting the game they had hunted.
Mo Shaoxie held a letter from the capital in his hand and began to read it.
Shangguan Ziling sat aside, her eyes occasionally cast towards the letter in Mo Shaoxie's hand, her heart full of doubts.
"A letter from the capital?" Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but ask, with a hint of concern in her voice.
Mo Shaoxie raised his head, looked at Shangguan Ziling, and nodded slightly.
Mo Shaoxie handed the letter to Shangguan Ziling. Shangguan Ziling took it, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Jun Yaotian is finished this time. How will the emperor punish him? Will he kill him?"
Mo Shaoxie did not directly answer Shangguan Ziling's question. Instead, he pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "The emperor is only cruel to me and is on guard against me everywhere. But I never covet that position. The emperor is still not hard-hearted and ruthless to his useless son Jun Yaotian. At most, he will imprison him and never let him turn over."
Shangguan Ziling listened to Mo Shaoxie's analysis and nodded. Although Jun Yaotian was ambitious, in the emperor's heart, he was also his biological son.
What do you mean the emperor is guilty of the same crime as common people? That doesn't exist in the royal family!
"What about the queen's mother's family? Will they be implicated?" Shangguan Ziling asked another question.
Mo Shaoxie listened to Shangguan Ziling's question and shook his head gently. "This Jun Yaotian was instigated by the Queen. He himself is not very courageous. The Emperor naturally knows Jun Yaotian's temperament. The Queen has joined forces with her mother's family to rebel, and the Emperor will vent his anger on the Queen."
"Then the queen and her mother's family are all finished?" Shangguan Ziling said.
Mo Shaoxie listened to her words and nodded gently, but there was no fluctuation in his eyes. "The emperor can forgive Jun Yaotian, but the queen and her mother's family are not so lucky."
Shangguan Ziling listened to his words and smiled softly. "You deserve it. You have a good life but you still want something that doesn't belong to you." Her words revealed a deep irony and disdain.
"Ling'er, not everyone is like me, not interested in that position." Mo Shaoxie said suddenly, his voice low and powerful, revealing a firm belief.
Shangguan Ziling listened to his words and said calmly: "Everyone is fighting for this position, why are you not interested in me?" There was a hint of ridicule and mockery in her words.
Mo Shaoxie couldn't help but feel a little amused after hearing her words. He reached out and gently held Shangguan Ziling's hand, "Ling'er, you don't understand. This king doesn't have too much ambition and pursuit for that position. This king just promised the late emperor to protect the stability of the Dongyue Dynasty. This king doesn't care who sits in that position."
"What if I want to be the queen?" Shangguan Ziling suddenly asked, with a hint of teasing and anticipation in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Mo Shaoxie paused his movements slightly. He lowered his head and looked at Shangguan Ziling with deep eyes.
Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw his reaction. "I'm kidding, I don't want to be locked up in the palace, it's so uncomfortable, it's just like being in prison." Her words revealed a desire and persistence for freedom.
After hearing her words, Mo Shaoxie scratched her nose lovingly, "Only Ling'er thinks that the palace is like being in prison." There was a hint of doting and helplessness in his tone.
"If Ling'er really wants to be the queen, I will seize the throne and no one will dare to say anything"!
Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but feel sweet when she heard his words. She knew that Mo Shaoxie doted on her, so she gently snuggled into Mo Shaoxie's arms and said, "I don't want that. I want to be free and unfettered. I don't want to stay in the palace all day. It will bore me."
Mo Shaoxie's heart was filled with tenderness after hearing her words. He gently hugged her and said, "When the Dongyue Dynasty is completely stable, I will take Ling'er to travel around, okay?"
"Okay! I'm going to the North to see my mother's relatives," Shangguan Ziling said without hesitation, her voice full of anticipation and joy.
Just then, Qiu Kui coughed and said, "Um, Your Majesty and Princess, the barbecue is ready."
Mo Shaoxie looked at Qiu Kui coldly. Qiu Kui was so scared that her hands holding the grilled fish and grilled rabbit trembled. She really didn't mean to disturb the two masters' love talk. It was the princess herself who said she was hungry, so she grilled the fish and grilled rabbit and sent it to her immediately!
Shangguan Ziling said: "It smells so good! Okra, give it to me, I'm so hungry."
Okra lowered his head, took the grilled fish and grilled rabbit, and then left quickly.
After Qiu Kui walked away, she patted her chest. The prince's eyes looked like he wanted to eat someone, and her little heart could hardly bear it.
Shangguan Ziling picked up a piece of golden and crispy fish, blew on the hot air, and then took a bite, "Mm, it's delicious!"
Shangguan Ziling glanced at Mo Shaoxie and said, "What are you doing? You scared my lovely okra. Come, try the roasted rabbit."
Mo Shaoxie retracted his gaze, took a piece of roasted rabbit, tasted it, and said lightly: "It's really good."
Shangguan Ziling's mouth was full of oil. Mo Shaoxie took out a handkerchief lovingly and said, "Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."
“…………” Why did Shangguan Ziling feel like a child, being taken care of?
The little fat boy in the space said: "Master, just be happy, you like the master to pamper you like this."
"Little Fatty, you really understand me more and more!"
The little fat boy was speechless. His master used to be a decisive killer, but how could he become so stupid in front of the male master?
Shangguan Ziling said: "Little Fatty, don't think I don't know what you are thinking. I am happy to do it!"
Little Fatty: "…………"
After a while, "Huh—I'm so full!" Shangguan Ziling burped. Her face was slightly rosy, and it was obvious that she was very satisfied with the meal.
