"Many thanks to wangye for sending my daughter back to the fu. Otherwise, this old man and Furen would probably be unable to sleep for a few more nights.”
Xiao Qing bowed slightly to Qin Mo.
Yang shi beside him also bowed.
Although Qin Mo was young, he was still a noble. Even if he was a King with a different surname, his status was still higher than theirs.
Therefore, as a second-grade official of the imperial court, the Grand Secretary of the Dragon Court Pavilion naturally understood etiquette.
"Furen, take Xi 'er back to the residence first. This old master has a few words to say to wangye alone.”
Xiao Qing said.
Madam Yang nodded and was about to bring Xiao Yunxi into the manor.
Xiao Yunxi looked at Qin Mo almost reflexively, as if asking for his opinion.
After Qin Mo nodded slightly, Xiao Yunxi obediently followed Madam Yang in the direction of the Xiao Manor.
His daughter's small actions naturally couldn't be hidden from Xiao Qing. This made her heart skip a beat, and she had an ominous feeling in her heart.
"Thank you for sending me off, Your Highness. May I know where Your Highness found my daughter?”
Xiao Qing asked casually.
However, Qin Mo had lived two lifetimes, so how could he not know that these words were just the meaning of the drunkard.
However, Qin Mo had no intention of hiding it from Xiao Qing.
Now that the problem with the Fiendish Origin Skill had been resolved, his path to the Innate Realm had been swept clean by him.
In addition to the foundation he had accumulated through the commander soul system in the past few years, the current situation was different from the past. It was impossible for the imperial family to plot against him like his grandfather and father.
"Lord Xiao, your daughter came to this prince's residence yesterday. After having lunch today, this prince will naturally send her back to the residence.”
Qin Mo smiled.
"This…"
Looking at Qin Mo's handsome face, Xiao Qing felt a dull thunder in her mind.
As a result, he stammered for a long time without saying anything.
Since Xiao Yunxi was in the Imperial Residence yesterday, did that not mean that Xiao Yunxi had spent the night in the Imperial Residence of Subei?
His understanding of Qin Mo was really not deep, because Qin Mo had never had much of a presence in the Imperial City.
Even when his father, Qin Mu, went to the north to lead his troops, he didn't see Qin Mo hunting and squandering in the imperial city.
The other party seemed to have displayed an extraordinary maturity since he was very young.
Qin Mo didn't seem to care about the likes of ordinary children. Instead, he liked to stay in the manor and not step out of the door.
He had only truly understood it since this year.
During this year, the other party had occasionally produced shocking works. Not only were there poems and songs, but there were also some works such as the Tao Te Ching and the Six Tao Tactics that shocked him.
He only felt that it contained profound principles. The more he read, the more profound he felt.
Even Xiao Qing had to admit that Qin Mo's talent in the literary path was something that even he could not compare to.
However, even though he admired Qin Mo a lot in the past year, it did not mean that he could ignore the fact that Xiao Yunxi had spent the night in the King of Subei's Mansion…
The marriage between Xiao Yunxi and the new emperor had already been decided, and the wedding ceremony was ready. They were only waiting for the next month to hold a grand ceremony in the palace.
At that time, Xiao Yunxi would be the Empress of the True Martial Empire.
Things had already progressed to this point. If something went wrong, not to mention Xiao Yunxi, the entire Xiao Manor would be implicated.
After being shocked for a few breaths, Xiao Qing took a deep breath and looked at Qin Mo with a grave expression."
"Your Highness, please tell me the exact truth.
This matter concerns Yun Xi's innocence and also the rise and fall of the King of Subei's Residence. Please do not hide it from me.”
Xiao Qing's words were not malicious, as if she was intentionally giving advice.
Ever since Qin Mo's father, King Subei, had passed away, the officials in the court felt that King Subei's Residence had already gone downhill.
Although he still inherited the title of Wang Jue, Qin Mo was currently a new force in the field of literature.
However, Qin Mo was still too young. He was almost twenty years old and his martial arts cultivation was ordinary. How could he be like his father and grandfather and lead the Beihan Army? Pick up the beam and become the humerus?
Furthermore, as a second-rank official, Xiao Qing had his own channels of information in the court.
He had received some obscure news that the new Emperor had a grudge against the existence of a King with a different surname in the True Martial Dynasty.
If it wasn't for the Great Ancestor's will, he would have attacked the Prince of Subei long ago.
Therefore, when she learned from Qin Mo that Xiao Yunxi had spent the night at the King of Subei's Mansion, Xiao Qing was extremely anxious.
Qin Mo could understand Father Xiao's feelings at this moment.
However, Qin Mo didn't think of deceiving Xiao Qing. Xiao Yunxi's virginity or not, there was no way to hide it.
If Xiao Yunxi was still allowed to marry the new Emperor, the day of the wedding would be the day of the Xiao family's disaster.
Moreover, Qin Mo had never thought of letting Xiao Yunxi marry another man in a wedding dress.
Even if it was just for show, it was impossible.
Therefore, in response to Xiao Qing's question, Qin Mo went straight to the point.
"Lord Xiao, Yunxi is now my woman.”
These indifferent words fell into Xiao Qing's ears, causing her face to instantly turn ashen white. Even her body trembled violently.
He could only stare at Qin Mo with his eyes wide open. For a moment, he could not even say a word.
The future empress that the empress dowager and the new emperor had reserved, the daughter of the Xiao family, his own daughter, had actually had an affair with King Subei before the wedding ceremony!
This…
This was like a bolt from the blue to Xiao Qing.
"Qin Mo, how…how dare you do such a bold thing!”
"It's over…it's over…"
"If this matter comes to light, both our families will have to bear the wrath of the new emperor…"
At this moment, even Father Xiao, who had been immersed in officialdom for many years, had a sudden change in expression. He lost his mind and could not think of a way to turn things around.
Originally, Xiao Qing thought that Xiao Yunxi and Qin Mo had a good relationship and wanted to give Qin Mo some advice.
However, he did not expect that it would lead to such an explosion. This caused Xiao Qing's brain to completely short-circuit.
"Lord Xiao, since this Prince has accepted Yunxi, I will definitely not let her and the Xiao Manor suffer.”
"Qin Mo, you are still young. Do you know that this matter has already involved the face of the Imperial Family? It was a heaven-piercing matter!
Half a year ago, you inherited the throne and took charge of the residence of King Subei, but you always shut yourself in.
Do you know that the new Emperor has long been dissatisfied with the existence of the King of Subei? Although he is the first King of a different surname to be conferred in the dynasty, he is far from being as prosperous and favored as you think!”
Hearing Father Xiao's promise to her, she was a little angry and wanted to scold her awake.
Qin Mo felt a little helpless.
It seemed that after so many years of hiding his strength and biding his time, Father Xiao felt that he was just an overly idealistic delusional youth.
"I know."
These three short words from Qin Mo's mouth directly interrupted Father Xiao's rhythm, causing Xiao Qing to be stunned.
"Hmm? You know about it?"
"Lord Xiao, why do you think that this prince is closed in and doesn't come out?
What if all of this was intentional?”
Qin Mo said indifferently.
Xiao Qing was stunned.
Qin Mo's gaze was currently looking in the direction of the Imperial Palace.
"On the surface, he was the first King of a different surname in the dynasty and was favored by the emperor.
I know the methods of the imperial family very well.
However, with the current foundation of my Subei King Mansion, it is not as easy as you think for the Imperial Family to touch me.”
Facing Xiao Qing's completely stunned gaze, Qin Mo directly said,"
"The imperial family thinks that everything is under their control, but they don't know that I have already stepped into the perfected Postnatal realm. I'm not just a mediocre body refinement realm martial artist.”
"Uncle Xiao, I will settle Yunxi's wedding.
As long as uncle doesn't think of going to the royal family to plead guilty and stick his neck out to be killed, bringing disaster to the Xiao family and Yunxi, I can protect the Xiao family.
In the days before Yun Xi's wedding, Uncle only needed to observe the situation quietly.”
Qin Mo's voice resounded in Xiao Qing's ears.
Even when Qin Mo turned around and got into the carriage to leave, Xiao Qing was still stunned on the spot, unable to come to her senses.
His mind was filled with the words " Postnatal Perfection " that Qin Mo had said earlier.
If what Qin Mo said was true, then Qin Mo's talent was too terrifying.
He was almost twenty years old, and he was already at the peak of the Postnatal Realm!
This…was simply appalling!
After a long while, Xiao Qing's gaze slowly descended in the direction where Qin Mo's carriage had left earlier, and the shocked expression on her face disappeared.
While she was shocked, she also felt a complicated emotion that was difficult to describe. Finally, she looked in the direction of the Imperial Palace and sighed.
Just as Qin Mo had said, he would not do such a stupid thing like destroying the Xiao Family.
Whether he was willing or not, the Xiao family and the King of Subei could be said to be tied to the same boat.
He just didn't know if things had developed as Qin Mo had said.
It seemed that everyone in the world had underestimated this King Subei who inherited the last title of nobility…
