Mo Wen, General Mo of the Da Zhao Kingdom, does not have the might of a military general but has the elegance of a civil official. His many years of battlefield experience have made him more heroic than a civil official.

He was about 1.8 meters tall, neither fat nor thin, and well-maintained. A 35-year-old man looked like he was 27 or 28. His black hair was only tied up with a black-gold silk headscarf, without a single flashy thing on his face. He had a broad forehead, sword-like eyebrows, majestic phoenix eyes, a nose like a hanging gall bladder, and thin and pale lips. He wore a gray and gold ice silk robe, and looked generous, noble and restrained.

He is indeed a crazy handsome man. No wonder the women of Dazhao are trying their best to marry him.

Mo Lishang looked at him indifferently. This man was her father.

In her previous life, her father held her in his mouth for fear that she would melt, and held her in his palm for fear that she would fall. Only when he died did she realize that his kindness to her was all for the sake of exploitation, just to climb to the pinnacle of power and to use her as a stepping stone. It turned out that he had never truly loved her, just as he had never loved her mother.

Maybe in his eyes, only Mo Yaner is his sweetheart...

However, today's Mo Yan'er has already caught up with her in the previous life in terms of appearance and talent. I wonder if Mo Yan'er in this life can still be the flesh and blood of his heart like in the previous life!

"Daddy..."

When Mo Yaner saw Mo Wen, she ran to him like a little bird, grabbed his sleeve and acted like a spoiled child: "Daddy, my sister is back today, and I was happy, so I made a mistake. Please forgive me this time."

"Humph!"

Although Mo Wen glared at Mo Yan'er majestically, Mo Yanshang could see the doting in his eyes clearly. She felt a little sad in her heart. It turned out that this was the loving expression a father showed towards his child. It was ridiculous that she always thought that the cold and false kindness hidden in his eyes in her previous life was the warmest fatherly love in the world.

"Father."

Mo Lishang suppressed his sorrow and walked forward with Rushi's support and bowed gracefully.

"It's good to be back,"

Mo Wen said lightly, and when he saw Mo Lishang's face, he felt a little disappointed. When he saw her skinny appearance, his brows unconsciously frowned.

There was a tone of blame in his voice: "How come your health is still so poor after taking care of it for several years?"

"Father, my grandfather has been seeking medical advice from many places. He has taken a lot of precious medicinal herbs over the years and is now in great shape. Doctor Yan also said that he will recover if he takes a good rest for a few more years."

"How many more years?"

Mo Wen frowned even more tightly. The battle for the throne among the three princes was in full swing. With Mo Lishang's status and position, she could marry any prince without any objection. But her appearance was so ordinary!

This already made Mo Wen unhappy, and the fact that she was in such poor health made him even more angry. How could such a daughter capture the heart of the prince? Among so many charming women, she was as dim as a speck of dust.

Not even half as good as Yan'er!

Yaner!

Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the cute and adorable Mo Yaner beside him, with unknown emotions flashing in his eyes.

Haha, when Mo Lishang saw this, he suddenly wanted to laugh. It turned out that in the face of power, family affection could not withstand the expansion of selfish desires. Mo Wen saw that the unremarkable Lishang's mind had already turned to Mo Yaner.

Mo Lishang knew that hiding her peerless beauty would make Mo Yan change his ways. Human nature, as expected! Her lips were filled with a smile that showed she saw through the world, but she said in a clever way, "But my daughter feels very well and may recover in a year or two. My daughter's unfilial behavior has caused her father a lot of worry and distress."

"Well, then you should take good care of yourself."

Mo Wen seemed to realize that his eagerness for quick success was too obvious, and Mo Lishaang had given him a way out, so he went along with it and showed the kindness he deserved.

"Father, I want to go and pay my respects to mother first."

Seeing that Mo Wen was about to instruct Butler Chen to take her back to her former Lengxiang Courtyard, Mo Lishang hurriedly asked for permission.

"Your mother has been unwell recently, so your return did not alarm her. Why not..."

Mo Wen was slightly stunned after hearing this. Although he knew that this was inappropriate, he really didn't want the two of them to come into contact right now. Qin Feiyan seemed to be a little strange recently. Could it be that she...

"Why not let the daughter go see her mother? There is a saying that when people are happy, they are in high spirits. The mother has not seen her daughter for many years. When she sees her daughter, she will be very happy and all her illnesses will disappear."

Mo Lishang immediately followed up with a clever response, blocking Mo Wen's words of refusal.

"That's good, go see your mother, it's worth it that she keeps nagging about you."

Mo Wen's eyes flickered slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking of. He did not refuse and just walked away on his own.

Looking at Mo Wen's emotionless back, Mo Lishang felt a chill in his heart.

This is her father. In his previous life, Mo Wen was very obedient to her and treated her like a jewel in his palm. It was just because Mo Lishang in his previous life was a charming beauty. She was not a beauty, but she was also a talented woman of Da Zhao. Such a daughter could be sold for a high price. Of course, she had to be held in the center of his hands. In fact, she was sold for a high price. Otherwise, how could General Mo become the father-in-law of the emperor! And how could his selfish desires swell because she was favored, and swell to the point of having the idea of ​​usurping the throne?

But now Mo Lishang has nothing to be proud of. If he has to say that he has something, it is only an impressive family background. She is not only the general's daughter but also the only niece of the leader of the martial arts world. If he marries her, he will not only get the support of the general's mansion but also the support of the people in the martial arts world. This is also a very tempting condition for those who yearn for power.

"Sister, I'll go with you to see mother."

When Mo Yaner saw Mo Lishang looking at Mo Wen's back with an admiring look, she couldn't help but feel a little sarcastic.

Everyone knows that the general's favorite is the second lady Mo Yaner, but of course she will not show it, and her eyes reveal the deep sisterly love.

"Okay, thank you, sister."

Mo Lishao smiled shyly, and the two of them walked towards the main house at the back, hand in hand.

Rushi and Ruhua looked at each other, with a smile in each of their eyes that no one else could understand.

Mo Lishang's mother lived in the peony garden of the general's mansion. It was the most beautiful and richest garden in the entire general's mansion. Hot spring water was also brought into the garden. Although the seasons changed outside, it was spring all year round in the garden, with colorful flowers in full bloom. All the women in Dazhao knew that the general loved his wife dearly, and he gave all the good things to his wife Qin Feiyan. Qin Feiyan was so envious of all the women in Dazhao.

Back then, the general was wholeheartedly devoted to Qin Feiyan and did not care about any other woman, which broke the hearts of the women in Dazhao. But they did not expect that no matter how much they planned, it was not as good as Du Shishi's calculations. The daughter of the minister's mansion actually abandoned her self-respect, drugged the general, and became pregnant. The general wanted to kill her in a rage, but unexpectedly, she ran to the general's mansion and knelt in front of Qin Feiyan for a day and a night. Finally, Qin Feiyan persuaded the general to take her into the mansion, and she became the only concubine in the general's mansion.

On the surface, everyone laughed at Du Shishi, and the women even used this as a topic of conversation after dinner. But in fact, many people were envious, jealous and resentful in their hearts, secretly hating themselves for not thinking of using this trick to enter the General's Mansion.

Don't ask about General Mo. Not to mention that General Mo holds half of Da Zhao's military power and is extremely rich and powerful, and not to mention that General Mo is so infatuated that it makes people's heart beat. General Mo is as beautiful as jade, a graceful gentleman, and extremely elegant. He does not have the burly figure of a military general, but has the heroic spirit of a warrior. This alone makes women rush to him like moths to a flame.

But ever since Du Shishi, General Mo seemed to be more on guard, never letting anyone stand any chance.

Looking at this beautiful courtyard and thinking of the rave reviews about Mo Wen from outside, Mo Lishang couldn't help but sneer.

If she hadn't been reborn, if she hadn't become a young lady in the Demon Palace, she would never have imagined that Du Shishi had already fallen in love with Mo Wen. What about abandoning her self-esteem as a young lady and drugging the general to make him pregnant? Bullshit. It was all a scheme to keep Mo Wen's image of a lovesick man and to make Qin Feiyan agree to Mo Wen taking a concubine.

It's ridiculous that everyone in the world was kept in the dark and was still admiring Mo Wen's tough guy yet tender heart, not knowing that everyone in the world was being fooled and played by Mo Wen.

"What are you thinking about so happily, sister?"

Mo Yaner saw a faint smile on Mo Lishang's lips. There was an elusive taste in that smile, like the clouds in the sky that were untouchable and difficult to control. She couldn't help but ask.

"Sister, I've been away from home for four years. Now I'm back in the Peony Garden. Every blade of grass and every tree is so familiar. I can't help but feel happy when I think about seeing my mother."

His hand gently stroked a peony flower. Peonies only bloom in late April and early May, but now it is July and the peony is still in full bloom. It can be seen that Mo Wen has put a lot of thought into this garden. He obviously doesn't like his mother but he tries to please her in every way. It is really untimely for such a persevering person to fail to achieve great things.

Mo Lishang suddenly chuckled, put down his hand, and walked quickly towards the main house.

Seeing her so happy, Mo Yaner looked at her with contempt: Mo Lishang, do you think that arriving at the general's mansion is the beginning of happiness?

How did Mo Yaner know that Mo Lishang's smile was filled with murderous intent, because no one except the people in the Demon Palace knew that the happier Mo Lishang smiled, the more ruthless she would be.

The Palace Master of the Demon Palace once said to Mo Lishang: Shang'er, only when you smile, others will not be on guard against you. Even if you are angry, upset, or hate that person, you have to smile more brightly and happier. This way, your opponent will be caught off guard and hit you with one blow.

So when Mo Lishang smiled the most beautifully and everyone was mesmerized by the brilliant moment of fireworks, it meant that the hand of death had already grabbed his throat!

"Mother"

"Li'er..."

Hearing Mo Lichang's voice, Qin Feiyan was stunned at first, then she stood up excitedly, staggering a little, ran towards her with tears in her eyes, and helped Mo Lichang up.

"Li'er? Is she really my Li'er?"

"Yes, mother, Li'er is back."

With a pang of pain in her heart, Mo Lishang threw herself into Qin Feiyan's arms. The familiar smell of the warm embrace made her feel as if she were in another world and she was reluctant to leave.

In her previous life, Qin Feiyan passed away two years after she married King Chen, when she was seventeen years old, leaving her heartbroken. Unexpectedly, this time she was reborn and returned to the age of nine. Excluding the four years in the Demon Palace, she is only thirteen years old now, which means that she has four years to protect Qin Feiyan and rewrite her fate.

"Mother, my sister is back today. You should be happy. Don't cry and hurt your eyes."

Mo Yaner watched the mother and daughter crying like a tearful person, a flash of jealousy passed through her eyes, but she tried to comfort them in a very obedient manner.

After hearing Mo Yaner's voice, Mo Lishang felt Qin Feiyan's body stiffen, and then she left her.

"Yan'er is sensible. I am old and I lost my composure."

Qin Feiyan wiped her tears lightly and walked to the main seat in the hall with the help of Hua Rong.

"Mother, from now on, Li'er will always be by your side."

Mo Lishang felt Qin Feiyan's sudden coldness, and his heart sank. He didn't expect that a mistress would actually take the feelings of a concubine's daughter into consideration. What kind of life is his mother living in the mansion?

"Mother loves my sister so much, Yan'er is really envious."

Mo Yaner walked to the other side of Qin Feiyan with a smile and made a half-seriously joke.

"Haha, you are such a heartless girl, doesn't your mother love you?"

Qin Feiyan pinched Mo Yaner's little nose lovingly, with such an intimate expression that people felt that Mo Yaner was her daughter.

"Mother naturally loves me, but now that my sister is here, mother will love her more..."
