Yueying did not answer, but asked in confusion, "Miss, I don't understand, why are you pretending to be stupid?"

Mo Zhaohua motioned for her to sit down, "If I were stupid enough, others would not regard me as a strong rival."

Since there were no outsiders around, Yueying didn't hesitate. It wasn't her first time after all, and she learned it from Pearl and Amber.

She sat down and poured herself a cup of tea. "I see, young lady is very smart, but I still have some questions."

Mo Zhaohua held the teacup with his knuckles, "You don't understand why I'm speaking for Mo Yaohua?"

Yueying nodded slightly, "Yes, the Third Miss plotted against the Young Miss, shouldn't the Young Miss encourage Miss Yuchi to deal with her?"

Mo Zhaohua smiled and asked, "Then do you think Yuchi Jiuyue will be happy that I am protecting Mo Yaohua like this?"

"Let me think about it. Miss Yuchi looks very unhappy, and she must be even more unhappy in her heart...I understand."

Yueying just thought about it carefully and then realized that Mo Zhaohua was openly protecting her but actually trying to provoke Yuchi Jiuyue.

Yuchi Jiuyue cared about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children, so she could not tolerate Mo Yaohua. And because she cared about identity and status, she could not tolerate her child.

Mo Zhaohua mentioned the concubine's daughter and the emperor's eldest grandson many times in his words, which was equivalent to stepping on Yuchi Jiuyue's pain points again and again.

This is better than Mo Zhaohua directly instigating Yuchi Jiuyue. At least she won't see through his real purpose.

Thinking of this, Yueying looked at Mo Zhaohua with admiration. This future mistress was even smarter than she thought.

Mo Zhaohua put down his teacup and stood up. "That's enough, I understand. Let's go. We should go back. I still have a lot of things to do."

She has been very busy lately, as she has to practice her internal skills and make clothes for Chu Xuanchi so that she can give them to him after they get married.

"Yes, miss." Yueying finished the tea in the cup in one gulp, stood up and took the veil hat beside her and put it on Mo Zhaohua.

***

That night.

Chu Xuanchi received Yueying's report letter on time.

He just took a quick glance and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

Wuying was grinding ink at the side, "It seems that Miss Mo has done something to please the master again."

Chu Xuanchi carefully examined the letter and said, "This girl is too smart. If she becomes an enemy, she will definitely be a strong enemy."

Wuying chuckled, "But if they are our own people, they are the best teammates. Am I right?"

After Chu Xuanchi finished reading it, he handed the letter to Wuying as usual, "Whether it is right or wrong, you can decide for yourself."

Wuying quickly put down the ink stick, took the letter and looked at it carefully, "Miss, you are going to make Prince Qi's mansion uneasy."

"When Zhao Zhao said she would kill someone with a borrowed knife, I thought she was going to use some tricks, but I didn't expect she actually had a better idea."

When Chu Xuanchi mentioned Mo Zhaohua's name, not only did his tone soften, but a hint of affection also appeared in his eyes.

Wuying saw through it but didn't say anything. "Miss Mo is very smart. This way she won't arouse suspicion and will also lower people's defenses."

Chu Xuanchi pursed his lips, "The sixth brother hasn't even gotten married yet, but the future legitimate wife and concubine are already at odds with each other. He will have a hard time after marriage."

Wuying took the opportunity to speak for Mo Zhaohua, "From this, it can be seen that it is even more impossible for Miss Mo to stand on the side of Prince Qi."

Chu Xuanchi's smile faded a little, and he asked Wuying lightly, "Do you really want Zhao Zhao to be your mistress?"

Wuying said sincerely, "It doesn't matter who it is. I just hope that the mistress is the one that the master likes."

Chu Xuanchi's face turned cold, "Why, do you think that I have fallen in love with her?"

Wuying burned the letter and said, "Only one's own heart knows clearly about matters like feelings. I dare not speak rashly."

Chu Xuanchi was slightly stunned. Does he have Mo Zhaohua in his heart?

***

Zhenguo General's Mansion.

Yuchi Jiuyue was in a bad mood after returning yesterday.

The more I thought about it today, the angrier I felt, so I finally went straight to find her mother, Xu.

Xu was the mistress of the general's mansion. She gave birth to three sons in succession before giving birth to this daughter.

As the only legitimate daughter, Yuchi Jiyue was doted on by her elders and coaxed by her peers. She could get whatever she wanted.

Because of this, she is not only arrogant, but also willful and capricious, and often offends people.

Yuchi Jiyue pulled Xu's sleeve and acted like a spoiled child, "Mother, your daughter is going to be pissed off to death by these two bitches..."

She repeated what Mo Zhaohua had said yesterday, and her two personal maids added some extra details.

Xu had finally given birth to a daughter and had always doted on her. She would never bear to see her suffer any injustice, so her face immediately darkened.

Even her voice turned a little colder, "Oh? Did Mo Zhaohua really say that?"

Yuchi Jiyue pouted, "That's right, but she married a useless prince and dared to support that lowly embryo."

Xu was quite pretty. Even in her middle age, she still had charm. Her drooping eyebrows made her look shrewd.

After listening to Yuchi Jiuyue's complaints, she did not say anything immediately. Instead, her eyes rolled around and she fell into deep thought.

Yuchi Jiyue waited for a long time without receiving a reply, and shouted in dissatisfaction, "Mother..."

"Shh..." Xu put her index finger on her lips, "Ah Yue, be good, let me think about it first."

Yuchi Jiyue disagreed, "What's there to think about? Mo Zhaohua is just a fool. She will suffer in the future."

Xu groaned, "No, she is not stupid. She knows that her husband has no hope, so she wants to borrow the power of Prince Qi."

"Why not?" Yuchi Jiuyue's eyes turned cold, "If that bitch doesn't have a child, will she still have a place in Prince Qi's mansion?"

She had already made up her mind that she would never let Mo Yaohua give birth to the child, and would find a way to get rid of her after she entered Prince Qi's mansion.

Xu's words suddenly became serious, "Ayue, remember, no matter how unwilling you are, you must not touch this child."

There are so many eyes watching this child inside and outside the palace. Even if they can't keep him, they shouldn't do anything about it.

"Why?" Yuchi Jiuyue shouted, "If she really gives birth to a son, won't she be superior to her daughter?"

Xu sneered, "To suppress you? How can she be worthy? Don't forget, she is only a concubine, and you are the legitimate wife and mother."

Yuchi Jiyue was very worried, "But she is already a mother with status because of her son. Maybe His Royal Highness Prince Qi will promote her to be a concubine."

"What's a concubine? As long as you are the main wife, everyone else is a concubine, not to mention the princess, even the queen in the palace is the same!"

Yuchi Jiyue was used to being willful and would not listen to any good or bad words. "But my daughter can't tolerate this child. Please help my daughter, mother."

Xu's eyes flashed with calculation, "It doesn't matter if you can't accommodate her, as long as you can support her. I have an idea..."

Yuchi Jiyue's eyes widened when she heard this, showing how satisfied she was. "This is a good idea. Mother is really smart."

Xu raised her hand and stroked her hair. "You are going to be married soon. From now on, learn from me how to manage your subordinates."

"Yes, mother." Yuchi Jiuyue changed the subject, "Although mother's idea is good, will that bitch agree to it?"

"Does she have any choice?" Xu taught earnestly, "Ayue, you must always remember your identity and make use of it."

Yuchi Jiyue threw herself into Xu's arms and acted coquettishly, "I know, my daughter is the legitimate wife of Prince Qi, and she will always be superior to me."
