Chapter 51: Entering the Master's School
JANUARY 11, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
In the Palace, the men and women were seated separately.
Su Chen naturally went to exchange pleasantries with his colleagues, while Li Qianshi took Su Mo Li and her sisters to sit down on the seat.
"Zhen'er, Xuan'er, you go with mother, as for Li'er, you are not well, so take a good rest here. If there is anything, just ask the palace maid."
Li Qianshi said with a smile.
Su Xin Zhen lifted her chin, looking at Su Mo Li with a smug face.
But Su Mo Li smiled gently: "It's my body that's not strong, thanks for your concern, Mother."
In an instant, Su Xin Zhen felt it was extremely meaningless.
It was clear that she was pleased that her mother would take her to see the noblewoman, and what she wanted to see was not Su Mo Li's gratitude, but jealousy!
Su Jia Xuan frowned and did not get up. She tilted her head and said with big eyes: "I'm not going either. I'll stay with Big Sister."
Li Qianshi glared at Su Jia Xuan: "Xuan'er, don't be capricious, come with Mother."
Su Jia Xuan moved towards Su Mo Li a few degrees, not looking at Li Qianshi.
Seeing this, Li Qianshi was angry, and Su Xin Zhen was impatient and said: "Come on, Mother, she is so small, what is the use of going over there? Let's go."
After thinking about it, it's right. After all, Xuan'er is only eight years old and still too young.
After watching Li Qianshi and Su Xin Zhen leave, Su Mo Li picked up the snacks on the table and ate them.
"This is a purple sweet potato cake." Su Jia Xuan also tasted a bite and whispered, "It's a pity that white sugar is used. If honey was used, it would be sweet but not greasy and more delicious."
Su Mo Li's eyes lit up: "Then you try this."
Saying that she handed Su Jia Xuan a flower petal-shaped snack.
Su Jia Xuan took a bite and spat it out directly.
Su Mo Li couldn't help but laugh: "How is it?"
"Big Sister, it's so hard to eat. Obviously, it's a dessert; why is it peppery!"
"Pepper is very rare for our country; it's bought from other countries and can be said to be ten times the price of white sugar.
After all, it is a national banquet, of course, you must show the dignity of the Emperor, so, some of the desserts will have pepper inside, just this taste …"
Su Mo Li couldn't help but smile, helpless to the extreme.
Su Jia Xuan revealed a dawning realization: "So that's how it is!"
Soon, the Emperor brought the Empress, concubines, as well as the Imperial Princes and Princesses to the main hall.
Li Qianshi brought Su Xin Zhen and came back. The crowd saluted and greeted the Emperor before he said with a smile, "Today is to cleanse the dust of Grandmaster Feng He. At the same time Grandmaster Feng He also said he would take two disciples."
The spirit of the crowd rose. Grandmaster Feng He was very famous in all countries. If someone from the Feng Yun country became a disciple of Grandmaster Feng He, it would be a happy thing.
It would severely suppress some people from other countries!
At this time, Da Guozi came out, "Please welcome Grandmaster Feng He!"
As Da Guozi's voice fell, Grandmaster Feng He, who was dressed in white and not smiling, walked out with the help of his attendant, Xiao Gaizi.
Grandmaster Feng He slightly squinted his eyes and looked ahead.
But only he knew; the corner of his eyes were looking for a familiar figure.
After walking to the very front, Grandmaster Feng He put down the fear in his heart; fortunately, this girl came.
"Your Majesty."
"Grandmaster Feng He, please rise quickly." The Emperor walked directly to the front and helped Grandmaster Feng He up, "Grandmaster Feng He, please take a seat!"
Grandmaster Feng He also did not push back. He followed up and sat on the right-hand side of the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, since they all know what I want, let's start directly and avoid delaying the hour. After all, I am old and cannot sleep too late."
Although Grandmaster Feng He spoke to the Emperor while sitting down, he had a smile on his face and a good attitude.
The Emperor naturally responded and nodded at the Empress.
"In that case, let's do it one by one." The Empress said gently, "If you want to show yourself, how about going to the side room to prepare first?"
"Yes, Empress." Da Guozi answered, "This servant will go and serve all the ladies."
Saying that Da Guozi then led the hundreds of young ladies to the next room.
Zhong Li Xi and Zhong Li Lan were naturally going to attend as well.
Su Mo Li originally wanted to keep a low profile, but unexpectedly, she became the most high-profile person.
Because all the women of the right age on the floor have gone, except her.
Of course, she was not bothered by the gazes of the people around her. She treated it like air.
But there is always someone who will take her laziness and pick at it, such as Zhong Li Lan's birth mother, the Noble Consort.
The Noble Consort wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "Why does Princess Su Rou not go and try?"
The Noble Consort's words made the atmosphere in the room strange.
About Su Mo Li's life, the people in the room are all clear on the situation. She grew up in the countryside; how could she know how to play chess, calligraphy, and painting?
The reason for not mentioning it is because Su Chen is, after all, the Prime Minister, and her birth mother is a Princess after all.
And she also has the title of County Princess.
"I won't bother to present myself and let others laugh." Su Mo Li smiled lightly and said in a soft voice, "I'm not particularly interested in qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting. If Your Highness wants to try, it's not impossible. I think Grandmaster Feng He is also willing to accept a disciple of Your Highness's age, right?"
Hearing Su Mo Li's words, the crowd took a breath in.
What an ignorant person!
How dare you pull Grandmaster Feng He into the water!
Su Chen's face sank fiercely, and he hastily stood up, "My little daughter doesn't know what to do, please forgive Grandmaster Feng He!
Li'er, why don't you hurry up and apologize to Grandmaster Feng He!"
Li Qianshi also hurriedly said, "Li'er has just returned to the capital not long ago, please forgive her Grandmaster Feng He, Your Majesty."
The Empress smiled: "Li'er is straightforward; there is nothing wrong with it. Please do not blame this girl."
Everyone knows that Grandmaster Feng He hates to get involved in fights. Su Mo Li has obviously violated Grandmaster Feng He's taboo!
The Empress's hand was slightly clenched. She knew that the Noble Consort was snapping at her and just brought Su Mo Li into it.
The Emperor was just about to speak when he heard his Noble Consort say petulantly: "This County Princess is not young anymore. Bengong knows that the County Princess is straightforward. Bengong did not think that the County Princess is also ignorant of etiquette."
Zhong Li Shi frowned; his eyes had a trace of coldness. He looked at Su Mo Li, who had her head bowed, and for the first time, he felt that the Noble Consort was an eyesore!
"The Consort's words are not too much."Grandmaster Feng He put down the cup of tea in his hand.
A hint of complacency flashed in the Noble Consort's eyes.
"It's indeed not easy to have a straightforward child in the Royal family. And this child also has a pure heart, a real model for other thousands of children."
The smile on the Noble Consort's face instantly stiffened.
Zhong Li Shi was surprised and then quirked his lips and smiled.
Sure enough, a lucky girl. She actually caught the eye of Grandmaster Feng He.
"I heard that it was because she was praying for the family that she had to go to the countryside since childhood. She has suffered a lot. It has also difficult for this child."
Su Mo Li's mouth twitched.
The Empress said: "Indeed, the child is a good child. Her etiquette can not be faulted. She's more like a Royal Princess than Xi'er."
"The Empress is modest; the Empress raised the Second Princess. Naturally, she's extraordinarily naive and romantic but is also a good child."
Once Grandmaster Feng He has opened his mouth to praise someone, naturally, the others will not go against Grandmaster Feng He.
Thus, the face of the Noble Consort was extremely bad.
Su Chen let out a sigh of relief, not expecting this kind of result.
Li Qianshi, however, fiercely pinched her nails to bring back her sanity.
The Emperor and Grandmaster Feng He said a few words and then changed the topic. Su Mo Li then continued to eat.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Da Guozi came over and said everything was ready.
With the Emperor's nod, Zhong Li Lan was the first to walk out.
When the first note sounded, Su Mo Li frowned, and as expected, after waiting for three breaths, Grandmaster Feng He shouted stop.
Zhong Li Lan blushed, and the Noble Consort blushed and couldn't help but ask, "But where is it bad?"
"The next one." Grandmaster Feng He's immediate reply made the Noble Consort lose face.
Her hand tightly tugged on the handkerchief.
Seeing this, the Empress said with a forced smile, "What is Sister doing? Let's just wait. It's Grandmaster Feng He who chooses his disciples, isn't it?"
The Noble Consort sneered and stopped speaking.
Next, it was Lord Liu's daughter Liu Qian Qian.
It must be said that Su Xin Zhen is indeed the best player in it. If not for the fact that she once gave Zhong Li Xi a few pointers, Zhong Li Xi would have been suppressed.
The last one on the stage is Zhong Li Xi. She was also the only one that Grandmaster Feng He listened to from the beginning to the end.
The smile on the Empress' face deepened a few more points and nodded to Zhong Li Xi.
Zhong Li Xi was extraordinarily happy. She was about to bow down when she heard Grandmaster Feng He say, "The technique used in the second section of the tune, did you learn it yourself?"
Zhong Li Xi was slightly stunned, and after trying to think, she shook her head, "No, it was Li'er who taught me."
The crowd was stunned. What? Princess Su Rou taught her?
They thought the Princess Su Rou did not know how to play the qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting? How could she teach the Princess to play the Qin?
Not to mention the others, even Su Chen and Li Qianshi were puzzled.
Only Su Jia Xuan seems to have thought of something. Her heart started beating fast. Could it be that her sister actually knows all of them, but she is just hiding her talent!
Yes, it must be so!
Thinking of this, Su Jia Xuan's whole eyes were bright, and she tightly held Su Mo Li's hand.
Su Mo Li looked at Su Jia Xuan and knew she had been found out. She rubbed her head and asked: "Do you really not want to become Grandmaster Feng He's disciple?
If you miss it, there won't be a next time."
Su Jia Xuan shook her head one after another, "Sister, I want to study painting hard!"
"Good."
At this moment, the Emperor opened his mouth, "Li'er can also play the Qin? If so, why don't you try?"
At that, Su Xin Zhen snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain: "Su Mo Li, you didn't bribe the Princess to put in a good word for you, did you? How dare you lie about this?"
Su Mo Li then stood up: "I can't afford the word 'teach' from the Second Princess. I just gave some her some tips."
Zhong Li Xi hurriedly said: "It's because of Li'er. Li'er, even if you can't play the qin, your ear is also very powerful!"
Zhong Li Xi's little face was red and flushed. Obviously, she was anxious.
Grandmaster Feng He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "The Second Princess has a good heart, but her qin skills are somewhat flawed, sit down first.
The Second Young Lady of the Su family qin is a good one."
Su Chen's eyes were pleased.
The smile on Li Qianshi's face was also growing, as for Su Xin Zhen was full of joy as she said thanks.
Grandmaster Feng He became silent.
The hearts of the people were lifted.
A quarter of an hour later, Grandmaster Feng He said with a smile, "I wonder who should be accepted under my teachings, according to Princess Su Rou?"
Ellie Note: I have an allergy to pepper, so the idea of anyone putting it in a sweet makes me shudder.
Chapter 52: Su Mo Li's Choice
JANUARY 12, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
The crowd was stunned at first and then full of confusion.
The Emperor also looked at Grandmaster Feng He in confusion: "Sir, what do you mean by that?"
Su Mo Li also did not expect that Feng He actually asked her directly!
Grandmaster Feng He stroked his beard and, with a strong smile on his face: "Princes Su Rou might as well tell us?"
Grandmaster Feng He did not answer the Emperor's words but stared at Su Mo Li.
Su Mo Li stood up, a soft look on her face: "What is Grandmaster Feng He doing? What does it have to do with me if you are choosing a disciple?"
Su Mo Li's voice was soft and gentle, but those who were familiar with her could hear the anger in her tone.
Zhong Li Shi stared at Su Mo Li for half a second, then turned to Grandmaster Feng He: "Sir, please don't tease the Princess. If you like her, why don't you just take her as your disciple?"
Zhong Li Shi's words made Grandmaster Feng He's face pale.
But he quickly regained his natural state and said with a dry cough, "Princess Su Rou, you can say what you want. I just want to hear Princess Su Rou's thoughts.
I think Princess Su Rou should be able to understand."
The corners of Su Mo Li's mouth twitched imperceptibly, damn Feng He!
Xiao Gaizi glanced at Feng He suspiciously. He suddenly seemed to think of something, and his tone was full of shock.
No way!
Of course, everyone in the crowd naturally didn't know the face of Xiao Gaizi.
At this time, the hearts and minds of the people are on Su Mo Li there; this is what is going on?
Zhong Li Shi frowned: "Princess Su Rou is straightforward just like you said… But I think Princess He Le has a good eye and is a fair judge."
When the Emperor and Empress looked at Zhong Li Shi, their faces were full of doubts.
Was this child helping Su Mo Li?
This is the first time they had seen it!
Zhong Li Shi's face had a smile on it, but his eyes were deep and dark. Looking at Su Mo Li standing there at a loss, he only felt that Grandmaster Feng He was very much in need of a beating!
Grandmaster Feng He was smiling happily: "Please speak, Princess Su Rou."
Su Mo Li took a deep breath and knew that she could not hide. She raised her head and quirked the corner of his lips, but his tone was still soft: "Can it be that you will accept whoever I like as my disciple?"
Grandmaster Feng He just looked at Su Mo Li with a mysterious face and did not answer.
After rolling her eyes in her heart, Su Mo Li said indifferently, "It's not impossible for me to say …"
"Sir, isn't this too hasty first?" The Noble Consort couldn't help it and interrupted Su Mo Li's words.
Su Mo Li was slightly relieved and also echoed: "Yes Sir, Li'er does not know the music, if the choice is hers, naturally it would be selfish and unfair to others."
Su Xin Zhen couldn't help but say, "My sister doesn't know anything. She's just a fool. Why do you let her make the decision? If you don't want to accept disciples, just say so. Why do you humiliate us so much!"
Su Xin Zhen's words were naturally the thoughts of the other girls.
Zhong Li Ling at the side also slowly said, "Is Mister an old acquaintance with Princess Su Rou?"
Su Chen's face had some surprise. Apparently, he is also do not know this matter.
Su Mo Li suddenly said, "Is what Grandmaster Feng He just said still true? Letting me choose?"
"Naturally."
Grandmaster Feng He answered.
"What does the Emperor think?" Su Mo Li looked at the Emperor again.
The Emperor smiled and said slowly, "Since Grandmaster Feng He has said it, you can say it, Li'er."
Su Mo Li walked out to the Zhong Li Shi and bowed her body to express her gratitude, then said with a smile: "I choose the Second Princess, although the Second Princess lacks skills, her playing of qin is with her own feelings. Skills can be learned, but the unity of the heart and the qin is rare.
The second, I choose Su Xin Zhen, because …"
Su Mo Li smiled: "She is my sister."

"Ahem!" Zhong Li Shi choked on his tea, lowered his head, and forced himself to hold back his laughter.
What a comeback!
She's really a funny person, and this counterattack is impossible to find fault with.
Su Mo Li's words made Li Qianshi's face flush red and white.
Su Xin Zhen was stunned. Obviously, she did not expect Su Mo Li to mention her!
Su Jia Xuan glanced at Su Mo Li in confusion, somewhat puzzled.
"Well, since Princess Su Rou has said so … then so be it." Grandmaster Feng He made a final decision, which even made everyone take another deep breath.
"Grandmaster Feng He, this is too rash!" The Noble Consort looked at Grandmaster Feng He incredulously, "Grandmaster Feng He is an expert. How can you accept disciples so rashly? If this is, if word gets out, it will be thought that Grandmaster Feng He has some kind of deal with Princess Su Rou …"
The words of the Noble Consort can be said to be very impertinent.
The Empress raised her eyebrows: "What does Noble Consort mean by this? Although the disciple's strength is important, but it also depends on the impression a person has. I think this girl Li'er is also smart; I wonder if you can add another spot for her?"
"Take Li'er as a disciple?"
The smile on Grandmaster Feng He's face disappeared in a flash: "That's not right."
Seeing this, the Noble Consort laughed coldly: "Do you really think Grandmaster Feng He will accept anyone?"
At this time, Zhong Li Lan shot a deadly stare at Su Mo Li. The good thing is that she is strong-minded and can hold back her hatred.
Su Xin Zhen did not say anything; after all, this is something that is in her favor.
As for Zhong Li Xi, she looked at Su Mo Li with worry.
"The Consort's meaning is to let the Eldest Princess greet Grandmaster Feng He as a teacher?" Su Mo Li inquired.
The Noble Consort's face was a little embarrassed, but she did not deny it.
Su Mo Li thought: "In that case, let's just replace the Second Princess and let the Eldest Princess go on."
Grandmaster Feng He suddenly widened his eyes. He fiercely glared at Su Mo Li: Would she refuse to give him a good seedling?
Su Mo Li raised her eyebrows: It's none of my business!
Grandmaster Feng He was a little defensive, but he can not help it. He wanted to reveal this girl's identity, but the master told him not to do so!
This time, the crowd again froze. Zhong Li Xi's face was full of incredulity. She opened her mouth but could not say a word and was aggrieved.
The Empress was also stunned. She looked at Su Mo Li but saw Su Mo Li's wearing a light smile as if she was just talking casually.
The Emperor was a little surprised, and for a moment, did not understand the meaning of Su Mo Li's actions.
Zhong Li Shi rubbed the rim of his cup a few times. When the Empress wanted to speak, he coughed dryly and shook his head.
Grandmaster Feng He sighed in his heart and said helplessly, "In that case, then I will accept the outer disciples today, the Eldest Princess and the Second Young Lady of the Su family. I wonder what the Emperor thinks?"
Outer disciples?
Not the inner disciples?
Although it sounded good, the so-called outer disciples only got a little bit of guidance from the Master. The rest was on their own, unlike the inner disciples, which were taught step by step.
However, for Grandmaster Feng He, not to mention his inner disciples, there had never been any outer disciples as well. They were the first.
Thinking this way, Zhong Li Lan and Su Xin Zhen were very happy. Both of them walked out and bowed towards Grandmaster Feng He: "Greeting Master."
The Noble Consort provocatively glanced at the Empress and whispered, "It seems that Li'er has an interest in Ling'er; otherwise, she wouldn't have helped Lan'er. Unfortunately, it's a pity that she fooled you for nothing."
After saying that, she smiled smugly.
The Empress's hand tightly clenched into a fist, and she forced a smile: "Then congratulations, Sister."
Grandmaster Feng He responded and stroked his beard, "Get up."
"Many thanks, Master."
After Su Xin Zhen and Zhong Li Lan got up, both of them had bright smiles on their faces.
Just as they were about to return to their positions, they heard Grandmaster Feng He open his mouth, "Wait."
Su Xin Zhen and Zhong Li Lan stopped.
"I wonder what else Master has to order?"
The others also looked at Grandmaster Feng He.
Grandmaster Feng He nodded slightly to the emperor, "Your Majesty, since I have accepted a disciple this time, I should go through the master rituals directly. I wonder if it is feasible?"
"Naturally, Grandmaster Feng He is free to do as he pleases." The Emperor said with a smile.
After Grandmaster Feng He thanked the Emperor, he then said, "Zhong Li Lan, Su Xin Zhen, since you have taken me as your teacher, you must respect the teacher and honor the teachings. If you are deceitful to the elders of the master, disrespectful, etc., you will be directly expelled from being a disciple."
"Yes! Disciple obeys the order of the master!"
Zhong Li Lan and Su Xin Zhen quickly answered.
Grandmaster Feng He nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, go and perform a kneeling salute to your master ancestor!"
Chapter 54: Arrival of Shi Zhu
JANUARY 14, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
Master?
The crowd looked at each other; Grandmaster Feng He is very mysterious, not to mention the master, no one has seen them ah!
What's more, at Grandmaster Feng He's age, his master should already be ancient.
The Emperor asked: "Grandmaster Feng He means that your master has also come to the capital?"
"She has always been in the capital." Grandmaster Feng He said with a smile, "She's right here."
"What?"
The crowd was shocked again. They looked around for a while, attempting to guess who it was.
Zhong Li Shi also had some doubts, "I wonder who Grandmaster Feng He's master is?"
"Haha." Grandmaster Feng He laughed, then stood up, picked up a cup of wine, and walked down the hall.
The crowd's eyes quickly looked over, their eyes full of curiosity, wanting to know who exactly is the person who can teach someone like Grandmaster Feng He.
However, when Grandmaster Feng He stood beside Su Mo Li, the crowd first froze. Could it be that Grandmaster Feng He's master was acquainted with Princess Su Rou?
"Master."
"Hiss …"
The crowd let out a loud gasp!
The most shocking expressions belonged to Li Qianshi and Su Jia Xuan. After all, these two were the closest to her.
"Big, Big Sister?" Su Jia Xuan called out with a trembling voice.
Li Qianshi also looked at Su Mo Li with an incredulous face: "Li'er, what's going on? Could, could it be a mistake?"
Su Chen also stood up, quickly walked over: "Grandmaster Feng He, did you make a mistake?"
Grandmaster Feng He straightened up and said with a smile, "There is no mistake, it is Lord Su's Eldest Daughter, Su Mo Li."
"This …"
Su Mo Li nodded: "That's right, I am Feng He's Master."
The crowd could no longer use words to describe the shock in their hearts.
Grandmaster Feng He looked at Su Xin Zhen and Zhong Li Lan: "Greet your master."
How could Zhong Li Lan and Su Xin Zhen both pay their respects to Su Mo Li? Wasn't this a slap in their face!
The person they despised was actually their masters' master!
This, this is simply impossible!
"Eldest Sister grew up in the countryside. How could she be your master, Master? And the age doesn't match, this, this is impossible!" Su Xin Zhen took a deep breath, and her tone was full of resistance.
Zhong Li Lan also hurriedly said, "That's right, Su Mo Li can't play the Qin at all. How can she be your master? You weren't deceived, were you?"
At these words, the crowd whispered.
After all, this was too incredible.
The smile on Grandmaster Feng He's face disappeared, and he looked coldly at Zhong Li Lan: "You mean, it's my old eyes that are blind?
Where three people walk, there must be a teacher. It is not just age that determines who can be a master."
Seeing that Grandmaster Feng He was angry, Su Xin Zhen and Zhong Li Lan hurriedly hung their heads.
The Noble Consort finally reacted and immediately said, "It's no wonder the two children are doubtful. Since the people present have doubts in their hearts, how about letting Princess Su Rou play a song?"
"Okay."
Su Mo Li did not pretend. Since her identity had been exposed, she would let these people be satisfied.
Sitting in front of the qin, Su Mo Li casually waved her hand. The song played by Zhong Li Lan before poured out from her fingertips.
Anyone could hear that Su Mo Li's composition was ten thousand times better than Zhong Li Lan's!
This is someone coming from the countryside?
The person who was considered not good at qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting?
If this was considered unacceptable, then what about them?
Zhong Li Shi narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Mo Li in the center of the hall. The corners of his lips were faintly curved upwards. Interesting.
Zhong Li Ling looked at Su Mo Li incredulously, and the hand holding the cup was slightly tightened.
After the song was finished, no one dared to question it anymore.
Li Qianshi fiercely squeezed her handkerchief. She never thought that Su Mo Li was actually, actually Grandmaster Feng He's master!
Su Jia Xuan's eyes were shining brightly. She knew now that her own sister was very powerful!
Su Xin Zhen's face was miserable and pale. She and Zhong Li Lan looked at each other, and both of them had a struggling expression on their faces.
"Since the two of you are not willing to call me a senior Grandmaster, then you are not considered members of my division." Su Mo Li said slowly, with a difficult look on her face, "This is how the rules of your master are, so please forgive me, Eldest Princess, younger sister."
Grandmaster Feng He also returned to his seat and nodded to the Emperor, "It seems that I have to re-select two disciples."
"Master is here; junior grand-disciple Zhong Li Lan greets master!" Zhong Li Lan gritted her teeth and uttered the words.
She could only feel her face burning hot.
However, Su Xin Zhen was reluctant and turned around, returning to Li Qianshi's side with a pair of eyes filled with anger.
"There is no need to be polite, junior grand-disciple." Su Mo Li's face was filled with a soft smile, then looked at Zhong Li Xi, "I wonder if the Second Princess is willing to greet me as her master?"
Zhong Li Xi's eyes widened. She was still immersed in Su Mo Li's shocking life. When she heard the question, she immediately answered, "I am willing!"
"Master!"
Zhong Li Xi decisively poured Su Mo Li a cup of tea.
After Su Mo Li drank it all, she looked at Zhong Li Lan and said, "You should address my disciple as Senior Aunt Feng He, this is the little sister I accepted for you."
Zhong Li Xi was giddy. This feeling is really cool!
The Empress revealed a smile, picked up the cup of tea, and glanced at the dark-faced Noble Consort. Inside her heart, she couldn't help but be happy: "Sister, this … is really embarrassing, just that Grandmaster Feng He's Master is like this. I hope that Sister and Lan'er will not take it too seriously."
Zhong Li Lan humiliatingly called "Senior Aunt," then returned to her position.
One day, she will overtake Zhong Li Xi and fiercely hit the face of Zhong Li Xi!
And Su Mo Li. Good, very good! She will not let go of these two!
Just then, Da Guozi received news and said a few words in the Emperor's which surprised him; "What did you say? Senior Shi Zhu is here?"
The crowd's eyes were glowing, Shi Zhu ah! The painting immortal Shi Zhu ah!
Some officials who loved painting had their eyes shining brightly.
Su Mo Li frowned, headache!
Chapter 55: Not on the stage
JANUARY 15, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
Shi Zhu, no one knows their age or gender.
Therefore, the Emperor's words excited the crowd. But some sensible people asked, "How can he prove that he is Shi Zhu senior?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's not a fraud, right?"
"Indeed, such a person cannot be spared! Let him come over and confront us face to face!"
"That's right; it's Senior Shi Zhu. Not just anyone can impersonate him!"
The corners of Su Mo Li's mouth twitched.
The Emperor thought about it and slowly said, "Let them come in first."
Da Guozi flung his whisk, and his sharp voice rang out: "Call Shi Zhu into the Palace for an audience!"
Everyone looked at the door, and in a moment, they saw a beautiful woman slowly walking over.
"Big Sister, this is definitely a fake!" Su Jia Xuan couldn't help but say, "How can Expert Shi Zhu be so young!"
Su Mo Li coughed dryly twice and did not speak.
The good thing is that Su Jia Xuan also did not want to get an answer from Su Mo Li. She just continued staring at Shi Zhu.
The woman in the middle has a cold face and a pair of indifferent eyes. After taking a look around, she nodded to the Emperor: "I am Shi Zhu."
The whole feeling of detachment is not only beautiful but also bewildering.
The crowd sucked in a breath. A young man came out and looked at Shi Zhu mockingly: "You say you are Shi Zhu, do you have any proof?"
"I am Shi Zhu. What proof do I need?"
"Without proof, who are you to say you are Shi Zhu?"
Shi Zhu was silent for a while and slowly said, "He can prove it."
Shi Zhu reached out her hand and pointed at Grandmaster Feng He.
Grandmaster Feng He put down his teacup and said cheerfully, "It is indeed little friend Shi Zhu."
"Hiss …" The crowd once again sucked in a breath, and the expression on their faces could no longer be described with words.
The Emperor obviously did not expect that it was actually the real Shi Zhu. She was just so young; it was too surprising.
Su Mo Li shrank behind Su Jia Xuan, trying to reduce her presence.
However, there are always people who don't want her to have a good time, such as Feng He.
"Little friend Shi Zhu is also here for the purpose of accepting disciples?"
Feng He said with a smiling face.
Shi Zhu raised his eyebrows, "Yes, Su Jia Xuan.
Someone asked me to take you as my disciple. I saw your painting; it's not bad. Do you want to greet me as your master?"
Shi Zhu's words made the crowd freeze.
This was too simple and straightforward!
Su Jia Xuan's eyes widened, and her small face turned red: "I- I- I, can I?"
"So little friend Shi Zhu also has her eyes on someone from the Su family. That's right; after all, she is my master's sister. She should be good."
Feng He stroked his beard and said with a smile.
The corners of Su Mo Li's mouth twitched. She raised her head, met Shi Zhu's eyes, and revealed a smile.
"Huh." Shi Zhu coldly glanced at Su Mo Li, then said, "A person like you can also be a master?"
Su Xin Zhen's eyes lit up as she heard the sarcasm towards Su Mo Li in Shi Zhu's tone.
Could it be that there was a rift between these two?
In that case …
Su Xin Zhen's mind came alive.
Su Mo Li blinked: "It's Feng He senior that regards me highly. I really didn't teach Senior Feng He anything."
"Oh? Then let me see if you have the strength or not by showing your skill. You can't have this empty reputation, right?" Shi Zhu curled her lips and said indifferently.
Seeing this, the Emperor slowly said, "Miss Shi, Li'er just knows how to play the zither. She may not know anything about painting."
"Yes, it's already not easy for this girl to learn such high zither skills." The Empress also followed his words and echoed.
Zhong Li Shi's gaze flicked between the two ladies. He picked up his teacup and lowered his eye; this was a bit interesting.
Shi Zhu sneered, "So that's how it is, but I still want to have a good competition of painting skills with Princess Su Rou. I don't know if Princess Su Rou is willing?"
The people around felt that something was not right between these two.
Su Mo Li stood up and slowly said, "I can't compete with you."
"Without even comparing, how do you know you can't compete with me?" Shi Zhu stared at Su Mo Li and stressed each word, "Also, one must be a person of their word and keep their word, and deliver on the promise of that time. Princess Su Rou has not forgotten, has she?
How can a person who has no integrity in their words become a master of Feng He seniors? How can one become a County Princess?"
Su Jia Xuan frowned and couldn't help but say, "Miss Shi, what does it mean to be faithless with your words?
What did my Eldest Sister promise you that you would talk about my sister like this?"
"Xuan'er, don't be rude!" Li Qianshi hastily pulled Su Jia Xuan. After glaring at her, she looked at Shi Zhu and said with a smile, "Sorry Miss Shi, Xuan'er is still small, you are kind and generous."
Then she looked at Su Mo Li: "How can Li'er be faithless? Why don't you hurry up and apologize to Miss Shi!"
"What's it to do with you?" Before Su Mo Li could say anything, Shi Zhu opened her mouth. She looked askance at Li Qianshi; she said indifferently, "I am talking to Su Mo Li. What does it have to do with you? Also, this girl Su Jia Xuan I like her. Be good and prepare to be my disciple."
At these words, Li Qianshi's face looked very bad. The whole person was drowned in embarrassment.
And Su Jia Xuan blushed: "That, thank you, Miss Shi, but my sister will not be faithless to her word, you must be mistaken."
But Shi Zhu looked at Su Mo Li and said with a smile, "Compete?"
A helpless look appeared on Su Mo Li's face: "Sure."
The crowd looked at each other and saw doubts and confusion in each other's eyes.
The smile on Shi Zhu's face deepened, and she looked at the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, as long as Su Mo Li wins, I will stay and teach the princes and princesses how to draw, okay?"
The Emperor smiled: "Naturally, it is good, Da Guozi, prepare."
"Yes!"
Shi Zhu added: "I'm saying it upfront, do not use my skills to draw!"
Su Mo Li's face had a helpless smile, but she still agreed.
Zhong Li Xi looked at Su Mo Li a little nervously, then moved to the Empress: "Empress Mother, what is going on?"
The Empress reached out and held Zhong Li Xi's hand: "Li'er this girl, it is us that underestimated her."
Zhong Li Xi pursed her lips, "Empress Mother, then the way we treat Li'er …"
"This girl is not high-profile. She obviously has Feng He senior as a backer. But even without that, she is worthy of deep friendship. You can treat her as usual, and now you are also taking advantage of having the title of her disciple, which will be beneficial to you in the future."
"Empress Mother, I know, I know that Li'er wants to help me out." Zhong Li Xi's two eyes shone brightly, "Seeing the look on Zhong Li Lan's face just now made me happy!"
The Empress helplessly glanced at Zhong Li Xi and stroked her hair, "All right, your Father is still here, pay attention."
Zhong Li Xi stuck her tongue out and looked at Zhong Li Lan, but found that she was glaring at Su Mo Li, and frowned immediately.
Su Mo Li and Shi Zhu stood in the center, picked up a brush simultaneously, and drew.
The crowd naturally couldn't help but gather around.
If there were still people who were skeptical about Shi Zhu, now, their doubts were dispelled.
This kind of painting technique, this kind of painting skill, no one can compare!
Su Xin Zhen also did not move and approached Su Mo Li.
When she saw Su Mo Li's painting, her whole body froze: "How is this possible!"
The sudden scream attracted the attention of the crowd, and they all looked over.
"Didn't you say that Princess Su Rou was raised in the countryside? How come she knows how to play the zither and paint. This is too incredible!"
"Yes, I heard the Su family's Second Young Lady say before that Princess Su Rou can't even write. It doesn't look like that at all!"
"Of course, it doesn't! Few people in the world can draw like this!"
"Then why did the Second Lady of the Su family say so? Is it possible that she is deliberately smearing Princess Su Rou?"
"Stop it; she's here!"
"They are all sisters; why is it necessary!"
Someone else said with disdain.
Su Xin Zhen couldn't help but look at Zhong Li Ling.
But when she saw that Zhong Li Ling's eyes were on Su Mo Li, his eyes were full of surprise.
Su Xin Zhen bit her lips to death and couldn't help but move closer to Zhong Li Ling: "Second Prince …"
Zhong Li Ling looked down at Su Xin Zhen: "What?"
"Second Prince, do you think sister is better than me?"
Su Xin Zhen cocked her head and looked at Zhong Li Ling, her eyes full of aggression: "I can do it too! I can also play the qin and paint!"
Looking at Su Xin Zhen's confident tone, Zhong Li Ling smiled, "Zhen'er is naturally good, but I just didn't expect Su Mo Li to be this good."
A smile surfaced on Su Xin Zhen's face.
"I really don't know why Sister never told us about this? Is it possible that she doesn't treat us as her own people?" Su Xin Zhen asked in mock confusion.
Zhong Li Ling frowned.
"What's the point of hiding it? Couldn't she be more open and honest? It's really strange." Su Xin Zhen muttered, and her words were heard in Zhong Li Ling's ears. He felt that Su Mo Li was too deep-minded and the goodwill that had just risen disappeared.
"Just a pity, Sister so talented, but her body is weak, ah …" Su Xin Zhen's said again.
When Zhong Li Ling's mind recalled Su Mo Li's soft appearance, the disgust in his eyes emerged.
Without moving, the expression in Zhong Li Ling's eyes calmed, and Su Xin Zhen's heart surged with complacency.
"Okay." Su Mo Li put down the brush in her hand, handed it to Shi Zhu, and said with a smile, "Here, the promise is completed."
Shi Zhu and Su Mo Li were finished painting at the same time. Everyone was gathered around Shi Zhu's painting.
They praised Shi Zhu's painting.
Su Mo Li's voice sounded, which made many people turn sideways to look over, and saw that on Su Mo Li's paper was a full-figure portrait of Shi Zhu.
It was very vivid and natural!
People couldn't help but brighten up when they saw it!
Su Chen was also a lover of painting. Seeing this painting, he couldn't help but pick it up: "Good, good!"
"It is indeed good! Just how come it's a little familiar …"
Someone couldn't help but say, "This painting technique, hey, look, you guys, it seems to be created by Miss Shi."
"Yes, this one little technique is indeed Miss Shi's signature technique."
"Princess Su Rou is copying!"
At that, Su Xin Zhen immediately spoke up, "Big Sister, losing to Miss Shi is not a shame. It has been said that you can't use Miss Shi's technique. Why did you use it? You're plagiarizing!
Such character, what a disgrace to our Su family!"
Li Qianshi also walked over, sighed, and slowly said, "Li'er, if you can't do it, why did you agree?"
Su Chen's face also sank, and directly threw Su Mo Li's painting out: "Shame on you!"
Su Jia Xuan tugged Su Mo Li's hand, her eyes full of worry: "Big Sister …"
The crowd also showed contempt.
Su Xin Zhen saw this and became more and more complacent. Zhong Li Lan on the side also showed a look of mockery as she whispered: "Sure enough, it's not something that can be displayed on the stage. So what if the painting is good? It's still plagiarism!"
56: It's a pity
JANUARY 16, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
"Who told you that this is copied from me?"
Shi Zhu swept a glance at the crowd: "This technique is Su Mo Li's own creation, to say copying, it should also be me copying her."
Shi Zhu's words made the crowd suck in a breath, and looked at Su Mo Li incredulously: "This …"
Su Mo Li raised her eyes, and a shallow smile emerged on her face: "I'm sorry."
After Shi Zhu rolled the painting, she said to the Emperor, "I lost, so I will stay in the capital and teach the Imperial Princes and Princesses to paint."
After saying that, she looked at Su Jia Xuan: "Are you willing to be my disciple?"
Su Jia Xuan nodded vigorously: "Yes, I am!"
"Good, I will teach you every afternoon. I wonder if it's convenient for Lord Su?"
Su Chen did not expect to encounter such a good thing, so he naturally agreed.
As for the rest of the banquet, it revolved around Shi Zhu and Feng He. Only, many people secretly looked at Su Mo Li. They never thought that Su Mo Li actually knew both of them.
But …
There seems to be something strange between Su Mo Li and Shi Zhu.
Su Xin Zhen walked up to Su Jia Xuan and raised her eyebrows: "Happy to call Shi Zhu as your teacher?"
Hearing Su Xin Zhen's voice, the smile on Su Jia Xuan's face faded a few degrees: "Mm."
"You go ask Shi Zhu whether her relationship with Su Mo Li is good or not."
Su Jia Xuan frowned: "Why do you want me to ask this?"
"When I tell you to ask, you go and ask! Why are you being so troublesome?" Su Xin Zhen said, then pushed Su Jia Xuan hard, "Hurry up and go."
Su Jia Xuan stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Su Jia Xuan carefully walked over. She didn't want to ask these questions, but Su Xin Zhen kept following her.
It's annoying! Too annoying!
"Master …" Su Jia Xuan whispered after calling out, "Second Sister asked me to ask you if you have a conflict with Big Sister."
Su Xin Zhen stared at Su Jia Xuan with wide, incredulous eyes, "What do you mean it was me who asked? Obviously, you are the one who wants to ask!"
Su Jia Xuan's small face displayed a confused expression, and then she said, "Oh, then you don't have to answer me, Master, because I don't want to know."
"You …" Su Xin Zhen gave Su Jia Xuan a fierce glare.
A smile surfaced on Su Jia Xuan's face.
After glancing at Su Xin Zhen, Shi Zhu said indifferently, "You are interested in the matter between Su Mo Li and me? Not bad, I do have conflicts with her, but what does it have to do with you?"
At these words, a delighted smile appeared on Su Xin Zhen's face, "It's not like that, Miss Shi. My Eldest Sister is from the countryside and somehow learned the qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Although you lost this time, I think my Eldest Sister's painting is not as good as yours.
Maybe she only knows how to draw this painting, so she has been practicing this painting for a while, and that's why she beat over Miss Shi."
"Second Miss Su, I think you might need to go see the doctor." Shi Zhu sneered, "Only knows how to draw this painting? This portrait is my own. Can I not know if the painting is good or not?
Princess Su Rou has come from the countryside and is better than you at both qin and painting. Haven't you thought about why? It's not because you are too stupid!
Also, Su Mo Li is the master of senior Feng He. Just this point alone is better than you. What position do you have to mock her? Just because she grew up in the countryside?
But you must not forget the reason Su Mo Li went to the countryside. It was for you! In order to be able to pray for a good life for you guys! To pray for blessings for you guys!
Not only are you not grateful, you actually mocked your sister. Is this the family teachings of the Su family?"
Shi Zhu's mocking voice was not quiet, and almost everyone heard it.
Zhong Li Xi couldn't help but say, "That's right, it's obviously for your Su family, yet you dislike Li'er. I don't know where you got the face."
Su Chen looked at Su Xin Zhen and gave her a fierce glare.
Only then did he get up and said, "It is because I am not good at teaching my daughter."
Shi Zhu sneered and slowly said, "Since the Su family's Second Young Miss despises Su Mo Li so much, then let her go to the countryside to pray for a period of time. That way, she will also know how difficult it is for Su Mo Li."
Su Xin Zhen's eyes were wide and full of disbelief, "Miss Shi, you, how can act like this?"
"How can I act like this?" Shi Zhu laughed lightly, "What about it? Did I say something wrong?"
Su Xin Zhen bit her lips tightly and did not speak.
The Emperor rubbed his brow and felt that today's matter is very annoying. He then said: "Subject Su, you also need to discipline your second daughter properly. She's really too much."
Li Qianshi's face was very bad. The anger in her eyes was about to be suppressed, but she looked at Su Mo Li beside her; she couldn't help but say, "Li'er, since you came back, our family has been treating you well. You have seen it in your eyes; have you been wronged? Zhen'er is young and does not understand things, you as the eldest sister, be more considerate of her, okay?"
"I know." Su Mo Li said in a soft voice, "So, no matter how my Second Sister bullies me, even if she wanted my life, I must forgive her. Wasn't that what Mother still wanted me to do?"
"You!"
Li Qianshi still wanted to say something, but then Su Mo Li continued: "Going to the countryside is not necessary. After all, Second Sister has been spoiled and nurtured. I'm afraid she would not be able to suffer in the countryside. Moreover, Second Sister is now the Second Prince's side consort. It is really not suitable. However, thank you for fighting for me, Miss Shi."
"Oh, I can't afford a thank you from you."
Shi Zhu's tone made the crowd a little confused. Shi Zhu's words were indeed helping Su Mo Li, but her attitude towards Su Mo Li …
Luckily, the hour was also late. After the Empress said a few words to round things up, the banquet was over.
Su Mo Li, who had returned to the Su family, was standing in the middle of the hall in a good mood.
After Su Chen took a look at Su Mo Li, his expression was a bit complicated, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.
Su Xin Zhen couldn't help but say: "Big Sister hid it from us so well! Do you not treat us as a family? How come you didn't tell us about your relationship between you and Senior Feng He?"
"What Zhen'er said is not unreasonable." Li Qianshi said slowly, "At today's banquet if Li'er had told us about this earlier, we wouldn't have made such a big fool of ourselves. Even if you didn't tell us, you still had to tell Master ah, Master is your own father after all!"
Li Qianshi's face was full of disappointment: "Or is it that Li'er you don't consider us as your family at all?"
"Mother's words are too serious." As Su Mo Li took in the expressions of several people, her expression remained unchanged, and she said in a soft voice, "In fact, I did not know that Senior Feng He's reputation was so great. The so-called master was just that Senior Feng He thought too highly of me, and I just casually pointed a few things out for Senior Feng He.
I really didn't expect this; after all, I was in the countryside, and I didn't know the fame of senior Feng He."
"What's with your painting skills and qin skills?" Su Chen asked in a deep voice.
Su Mo Li lowered her eyes and said in a small voice, "I learned them on my own."
"How is that possible!" Su Xin Zhen screamed out, "How can you be so good at self-learning? Someone must have taught you!"
There was indeed someone who taught her.
Su Mo Li laughed in her heart. But the person who taught her was a master in the world of immortal cultivation; in this world, it was impossible to find out!
"If you don't believe me, you can go and check." Su Mo Li sighed, sorrow staining her face, "The countryside that kind of place, how can there be a gentleman who teaches qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting? Even if there are, they are from the academy, and I didn't have any silver, so how can I go to the academy?
I also want to learn, just …"
Su Mo Li let out a bitter laugh, full of helplessness.
"As for Senior Feng He, he also came to the village unintentionally, and we got to know each other."
Hearing this, Su Chen's face was a few degrees better: "Did you really not know?"
"I didn't know."
Su Mo Li's face was full of conviction.
"Then what about Miss Shi?" Su Chen continued to ask.
"Miss Shi did not tell me about her true identity when she met me. I made an appointment with her to paint a portrait for her on her birthday in half a month, but I did not expect that you would pick me up, Father, before the half a month was up.
As for my painting, it was indeed Shi Zhu who taught me at first."
Su Mo Li's face was full of sincerity as if she really didn't know.
Su Xin Zhen and Li Qianshi looked at Su Mo Li in confusion, obviously not believing her.
Su Mo Li continued, "I was in the countryside. How can I think to get in touch with such characters? I can only believe whatever they say.
In fact, it's a little strange to me. Since Senior Feng He is willing to take Second Sister as a disciple, why did Second Sister refuse? The two sisters, one is Shi Zhu's disciple, and one is Senior Feng He's disciple, say out how dignified it would be ah. When Father is in court he will also be high regard.
Can it be because you don't want to call me Master?"
Su Mo Li sighed, full of disapproval: "As long as you can win glory for the Su family, what's the point of saying "master"? Besides, it is only necessary to call once. After all, we are sisters!"
"As long as it enters the ears of Senior Feng He, it's fine!"
"Sister, you are also a little too reckless."
Su Xin Zhen looked at Su Mo Li incredulously, "You, you want me to call you senior? I'm telling you, no way!"
Su Mo Li revealed a look of resignation: "But this is the rule of the master, it's just once… …"
"You shut up!"
"What Li'er said is reasonable." Su Chen said thoughtfully, "After all, becoming a disciple of Senior Feng He, the benefits are quite a lot.
Zhen'er, you are indeed reckless."
Li Qianshi's eyes faintly shifted, and she said with a smile, "Master, Li'er is Senior Feng He's master. With this layer of status, it doesn't matter if she accepts Senior Feng He as her master or not."
"My reputation is not as large as Senior Feng He. Almost no one knows me; my sister is still hasty." Su Mo Li blinked her eyes and sighed.
"Then why don't you become her master?" Li Qianshi continued.
"My reputation is not as famous as Senior Feng He's; it's a pity for my sister." Su Mo Li said with a sigh again.
Li Qianshi frowned: "Your disciple is also the sister of Senior Feng He. This status is also very good."
Su Mo Li shook her head with a helpless face: "The Princess is now also Senior Feng He's junior sister. Compared to Sister, the crowd will only focus on the Princess. After all, she has the golden branch and jade leaves ah! Sister's position is also too difficult …"
Stimulated by Su Mo Li's tone, Li Qianshi suddenly felt that it was indeed not very good not to become the disciple of Senior Feng He.
"Then, why don't you talk to Senior Feng He and let him re-accept Zhen'er as a disciple?"
"I won't!" Su Xin Zhen directly refused, "I don't want to! With my own talent, I can also be very powerful!"
"Sister is awesome!" Su Mo Li applauded, her delicate little face full of smiles.
Su Xin Zhen fiercely glared at Su Mo Li, turned around, and left in a hurry.
Su Mo Li's heartfelt feel was that it was a pity. She could not hear Su Xin Zhen call her master.
57: No, I don't want to see the Prince
JANUARY 17, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
When Su Mo Li returned to Cui Zhu Courtyard, she was greeted by Cheng Tao and Huang Fan.
"Miss, is everything okay?" Cheng Tao poured a cup of tea and asked in a low voice.
Su Mo Li shook her head; "Nothing serious, it's just that Feng He and Shi Zhu are here and my identity got exposed."
"What?" Huang Fan looked at Su Mo Li incredulously, "How can it be exposed all of a sudden?"
Su Mo Li took a sip of tea and said lightly, "Well, it's good, this way, no one will bully me."
After a pause, Su Mo Li continued, "How about the matter in the House? Have you found the evidence?"
Cheng Tao hurriedly made a gesture of silence. She went to the window, looked around, closed the door and window, and slowly said, "The past is so long ago. New people have long replaced the old people in the house, but there are still a few old Momos, just …"
"Only they don't know anything."
Huang Fan interjected, "But I think they are a bit strange. It's as if they are very resistant to talk about Princess Huimin's affairs."
"Miss, there is still the study of the master that no one in residence can not enter."
Huang Fan's words made Su Mo Li nod; "Entering the study is not a problem. I will find a way to get in. Just check other places.
The old momos should not be made too anxious. Just proceed step by step.
Even if you can't find the clues, I won't let Su Chen go. The Emperor has asked him to write the history books. A little tampering and his Prime Minister's position will be replaced by someone else."
"Yes." After Huang Fan answered, she left.
Su Mo Li looked at the sky: "I'm going out."
Saying that, she stood up, changed into her night stalking clothes, and quickly left the Prime Minister's residence.
Just as she walked out of the Prime Minister's residence, she saw people approaching her …
People dressed in black.
Su Mo Li was silent for a moment and was ready to go around them when she was stopped by the man in black on the opposite side.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Su Mo Li raised her eyebrows to look at the man in black in front of her, "Go your own way, and don't block the way!"
The man in black laughed lightly twice; "Su Mo Li."
Su Mo Li:?
I'm wrapped like this, and you can find out?
"Su Mo Li."
After calling out again, the man in black continued, "How about making a deal?"
Su Mo Li looked at the man in black with confusion: "What?"
"Follow me."
The man in black turned around and quickly left.
Su Mo Li frowned and directly turned around and ran in the opposite direction. What a joke, you want me to come, and I'll go? What for!
Zhong Li Shi did not expect, Su Mo Li actually did not follow!
Zhong Li Shi felt somewhat helpless, but he could only return to the same place.
"You …"
Su Mo Li glanced around and looked warily at Zhong Li Shi in front of her: "How did you know I was going to the Palace? Brother, you actually came here to block me?"
Zhong Li Shi also did not expect that Su Mo Li would come to the Palace. He asked, a little surprised; "What do you want?"
"Looking for the Crown Prince." Su Mo Li did not hide, "Tell me, what kind of deal are you looking for me?"
Zhong Li Shi raised his eyebrows and lifted his face mask.
Su Mo Li stared at Zhong Li Shi for half a second before slowly retracting the legs that were climbing upwards and patting the dust on her body; "Let's go and find a place to talk."
Zhong Li Shi lightly laughed out, "Princess Su Rou doesn't want to make a deal with me?"
Su Mo Li looked up at Zhong Li Shi, a serious look written on her small face; "Well, I do not want to make a deal with you. But you are Zhong Li Shi, the Crown Prince; I think I can try."
Saying that, she tugged Zhong Li Shi's arm, "Let's go, let's go, don't be so fussy for such a big man."
Zhong Li Shi looked at Su Mo Li, who was pulling himself towards the front and said indifferently: "Princess Su Rou is excellent in qin skills and powerful in painting skills, which is really unexpected. Does Princess Su Rou not want to explain?"
"Explain what?" Su Mo Li turned her head and looked at Zhong Li Shi, "It has nothing to do with you, Your Highness; you are meddling too much."
"Naturally, you need not explain it to me. But Father and Mother are interested." Zhong Li Shi smiled, "What? Is Princess Su Rou planning to keep quiet?"
"What? I can't say I'm too smart and self-taught? I don't know if with this reason, His Highness the Crown Prince is satisfied?"
Su Mo Li looked at Zhong Li Shi with a smiling face; only the smile did not reach her eyes.
Zhong Li Shi reached out his hand and patted Su Mo Li's head; "Very good."
The warm touch made Su Mo Li slightly stunned, then she quickly took two steps back: "Just talk, don't move your hands and feet."
"Princess Su Rou has a flexible body; why is your body suddenly healed?"
Hearing Zhong Li Shi joking words, Su Mo Li froze. She blinked towards Zhong Li Shi: "I forgot my persona …"
Reaching out, she covered her chest and felt her heart beating hard. Suddenly, she quickly rushed up to Zhong Li Shi and raised her hand to hit the back of Zhong Li Shi's neck directly.
The second before Zhong Li Shi fainted, he felt that he couldn't keep up with the thoughts of the woman in front of him.
What did he do to make her actually want to knock him out!
Looking at Zhong Li Shi, who fell to the ground, Su Mo Li quickly resisted but inevitably, her hand touched Zhong Li Shi's buttocks. Her eyes lit up, and she squeezed it twice; it was a little soft.
Unknowingly, she returned to the Palace and wanted to send Zhong Li Shi back to the East Palace, but today there were extra guards in the Palace.
"Who's there? Come out!" An angry roar from an Imperial guard made Su Mo Li's eyes widen. She then quickly threw Zhong Li Shi … out …
*Bang!*
A loud sound made the Imperial guard slightly stunned, and then slowly walked over. After stripping the figure, he took a deep breath and stepped backward; "His Highness the Crown Prince!"
This evening, the Imperial Palace is destined to be busy.
As for Su Mo Li, after throwing Zhong Li Shi out, she had quickly slipped out.
After returning to Cui Zhu Courtyard, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. She was tired today too!
The next day, Su Mo Li woke up and asked Cheng Tao to inquire about the Palace's affairs.
Only, as soon as Cheng Tao went out, she saw the butler.
"What? Zhong Li Shi has come over? What is he doing here?" Su Mo Li was a bit sheepish. Her mind was not clear yesterday, and she did something a bit out of the ordinary.
More importantly, it seems that her fake persona had collapsed.
Cheng Tao slowly said, "His Highness the Crown Prince asked you to go over and teach the Second Princess. After all, you are now the Second Princess' Master."
"Isn't Feng He around?" Su Mo Li resisted.
Cheng Tao helplessly looked at Su Mo Li.
Su Mo Li sighed: "It's only a matter of time… I have to face it… I'll change my clothes and go over."
"Miss, what exactly happened between you and the Crown Prince last night?" Huang Fan came over and asked in confusion.
Su Mo Li opened her mouth, then shut up, and finally sighed; "How can I say it … I'm a little sorry for him …
All right, Cheng Tao and I will go into the Palace."
Su Mo Li took Cheng Tao and left Cui Zhu Courtyard.
As soon as she went out, she saw Zhong Li Shi sitting outside, and Li Qianshi was entertaining him.
After seeing Su Mo Li, Zhong Li Shi stood up, "Princess Su Rou, this way, please."
Su Mo Li bowed, and a gentle smile appeared on her face, "Hoping his Highness the Crown Prince is well, Mother, I will go over first."
Li Qianshi nodded; her expression was a bit complicated. Who would have thought that a girl who came from the countryside could have such a fortune?
If she had known that she could meet these people in the countryside, she would have sent Zhen'er over there! There was no need for Su Mo Li to benefit!
When she got on the carriage, the smile on Su Mo Li's face disappeared. She rubbed her cheeks and couldn't help but lift the curtain, revealing a brilliant smile when she looked at Zhong Li Shi, who was riding a horse outside; "Your Highness, are you okay?"
"I am grateful for the concern of Princess Su Rou." Zhong Li Shi's low voice rang out, "It's just that I'm curious to know, why did Princess So Rou want to take a shot at me? What did I do to offend Princess Su Rou?"
Su Mo Li coughed dryly twice: "That … was a momentary mistake."
Saying that she lowered her head and coughed hard and dry.
"Your Highness, Crown Prince, Li'er is not well; I hope you will forgive Li'er …" the soft voice was full of grievances. She slightly raised her head, and there were tears in her eyes.
Zhong Li Shi met the star-like eyes, and suddenly, from the bottom of his heart surged an unknown emotion. He only felt that such a compassionate and weak Su Mo Li let his heart soften instantly.
"Many thanks, Your Highness."
When Su Mo Li's voice sounded again, Zhong Li Shi realized what he had said.
He actually said "you're forgiven" directly.
Xiao Guozi on the side was also wide-eyed and in shock. It was known that if anyone dared to provoke His Highness, His Highness would let this person know how serious the consequences would be!
How come today …
According to what he heard, it seems that the reason why His Highness the Crown Prince was found unconscious yesterday was because of Princess Su Rou?
Princess So Rou …
Impossible ah! Princess Su Rou is so soft, how is it possible?
His Highness must have made a mistake, wait!
Xiao Guozi fiercely stared and rode closer to Zhong Li Shi: "Your Highness, you want to get close to County Princess Su Rou, but you can't use this reason!"
Zhong Li Shi looked at Xiao Guozi with some confusion.
Xiao Guozi said, "Crown Prince, why don't you take a look. Princess Su Rou is so soft. How can she possibly make a move on you? If it is to you, it may be that you have done something excessive."
The more Xiao Guozi said the more he felt it made sense.
Zhong Li Shi raised an eyebrow: "Xiao Guozi, say it again?"
Xiao Guozi's neck shrank, and he revealed a sarcastic smile; "Your Highness the Crown Prince, it was the servant who talked too much. The servant will slap his own mouth!"
"But …"
Xiao Guozi's words changed, and he continued, "Crown Prince, if you like Princess Su Rou, you should be more gentle. Look, you just made Princess Su Rou cry."
Zhong Li Shi laughed a couple of times, causing Xiao Guozi to pull the reins and quickly leave.
Looking at Xiao Guozi's back, Zhong Li Shi was deep in thought. He then looked at the carriage in front of him with a trace of distress on his face.
When they arrived at the Palace, Zhong Li Shi left directly, allowing Xiao Guo Zi to take Su Mo Li away.
Xiao Guozi immediately said: "Princess Su Rou, don't mind, His Highness the Crown Prince left first because he had something to do. After Princess Su Rou's lesson is finished, this servant will go to invite His Highness the Crown Prince over!"
Su Mo Li hastily shook her head, and a slight smile appeared on her small face: "No, no, no, it's not necessary. His Highness is already busy with business, so there's no need to come over. After class, I'll take the carriage back by myself."
She doesn't want to see Zhong Li Shi again. If Zhong Li Shi brings up last night's incident again, she will have to rack her brains to think of a reason, so it's better not to see him anymore.
"Princess Su Rou doesn't need to be polite; this is the servant's part of the job …"
Xiao Guozi said with a smile, his face full of smugness.
Su Mo Li was simply shocked. What is this little eunuch talking about!

"Li'er? Li'er!" Zhong Li Xi called out several times in a row before pulling Su Mo Li back from her thoughts.
Su Mo Li looked at Zhong Li Xi and yawned: "I'm sleepy."
Then she said to Cheng Tao, "You go back to the house first, no need to wait for me here."
Cheng Tao felt it was a bit strange but still agreed.
Su Mo Li thought it was very simple. If the prince came looking for her later, she will knock him out again and run away alone.
Zhong Li Xi was puzzled: "What's wrong with you? Did your spirit leave your body…
Su Mo Li thought about it and slowly said, "Second Princess, I want to ask you a question about the Crown Prince."
"What is it?"
Zhong Li Xi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Mo Li.
Su Mo Li took a sip and whispered: "That is if you had told any secrets to His Highness when you were a child, would His Highness have told your Father and Mother?"
Zhong Li Xi is more and more confused: "This, I don't tell my brother secrets, ah!"
"Then what if you did?" Su Mo Li could not help but continue to ask.
Zhong Li Xi shook her head; her small face was full of seriousness: "I do not know, but Brother does not like to say everything to Imperial Father and Mother. I think he is not a talkative person, why, why you ask?"
"It's nothing; I just want to ask." Su Mo Li said with a smile.
Zhong Li Xi thought it was a bit strange, but Su Mo Li had already started to teach her to play the qin, so she didn't ask anything.
In the evening, after dinner, Zhong Li Xi sent Su Mo Li out of the Palace.
Su Mo Li wasn't relieved until she got into the carriage. Fortunately, Zhong Li Shi didn't come over.
However, when she returned to Cui Zhu Courtyard, she saw Zhong Li Shi sitting inside.
Su Mo Li took two steps back and glanced at Cheng Tao and Huang Fan. She saw that the two were cleaning up as usual and frowned as she walked in again.
"Miss, do you need anything to eat?" Huang Fan came over with a teapot, "This is the newly brewed floral tea; you should try it."
Saying that she was about to walk in.
In the next second, Su Mo Li directly stood in front of Huang Fan and took the teapot from her hand, "All right, you guys go rest, don't come in without my order."
*Bang!*
Huang Fan touched her nose and felt a little strange.
What's wrong with Miss?
Cheng Tao also walked over with some doubts on her face, "What's wrong?"
Huang Fan shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.
"All right, go busy yourself first; if Miss calls us, we'll go in again."
Inside, Su Mo Li put the teapot on the table. She sat down, picked up an apple, and nibbled on it.
For a while, the atmosphere was extraordinarily delicate. Except for the sound of Su Mo Li eating, there was no more, as if there was no one else in this room.
Zhong Li Shi watched for half a day, but after seeing Su Mo Li finished her third apple, he then opened his mouth and said: "You are not curious?"
"You're not curious?" Su Mo Li asked rhetorically.
Zhong Li Shi quirked the corner of his lips, "Princess Su Rou is really different from the rumors."
"Didn't you find that out?" Su Mo Li continued in dislike, "Just say what Your Highness the Crown Prince wants to say."
"Aren't you afraid that I will make your matter public?" Zhong Li Shi became more interested.
Su Mo Li swept a glance at Zhong Li Shi: "Then they will only think that Your Highness the Crown Prince has developed a mental condition. The kind of person I am, everyone knows, I am weak, helpless, pitiful. Even if I have Grandmaster Feng He and Shi Zhu as my backers, they will only think that I am lucky.
If Your Highness does not believe me, you can go outside and ask around and find out."
Zhong Li Shi seemed to have thought of something and said slowly: "It seems that Princess Su Rou has found a good way out for herself from the very beginning."
"No." Su Mo Li looked up at Zhong Li Shi, "I never thought I would be found out."
Saying this, Su Mo Li was a bit resentful.
Zhong Li Shi laughed lightly: "In that case, I will say it straight. Su Mo Li, regarding Aunt Huimin's issue, I can help you, but you have to help me find an account book."
Su Mo Li raised her eyebrows. This actually coincided with what she thought.
Now that Su Chen completely favored Zhong Li Ling, the Prime Minister was no longer neutral, making the atmosphere at court extraordinarily delicate.
Su Mo Li actually couldn't figure it out. The Emperor clearly favored Zhong Li Shi and showed his love and acceptance for Zhong Li Shi. So why would anyone want to rebel and pull Zhong Li Shi down?
If Zhong Li Shi was not worthy of being the Crown Prince, then it would be a different matter. But clearly, Zhong Li Shi's virtue as a Crown Prince is already very good.
Well, there are always some people who desire too much, so that the court's atmosphere was getting worse and worse.
Yesterday she actually went to the Crown Prince is for this matter. Therefore, Su Mo Li directly answered: "Good, what does the account book look like? You have to tell me clearly."
Saying that, she took out a pen and paper: "Draw it out."
Zhong Li Shi walked over, picked up the pen, and quickly drew it.
Su Mo Li glanced at the drawing and then glanced at the account book on the table next to him. The corners of her mouth twitched: "His Highness the Crown Prince did draw it very similarly, but I want to know, is there any difference between this account book and other account books?"
"No." Zhong Li Shi raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you want to know what the account book looks like? I'm telling you now."
"Oh." Su Mo Li rolled his eyes without a good attitude, "Thank you so much, Your Highness, the Crown Prince."
Zhong Li Shi laughed lightly twice, "Well, Princess Su Rou County is too polite."
Su Mo Li only felt choked and replied in a good-natured manner, "Shouldn't you leave?"
"Well, if there's anything, Princess Su Rou can go directly to the East Palace to look for me."
As soon as the words left his mouth, she saw Zhong Li Shi jump out of the window and leave.
Seeing this, Su Mo Li's eyes deepened a few points. Being able to avoid Cheng Tao, Huang Fan, and the surrounding secret guards, this martial art, was unfathomable.
Thinking this way, Su Mo Li was a little apprehensive. She didn't know if her cooperation with the Crown Prince was akin to seeking a tiger for its skin.
"Miss, the Madam has invited you." Outside, the voice of Cheng Tao rang out.
Su Mo Li answered and walked out. She heard Cheng Tao whisper, "Miss, Madam asked someone to call you over for dinner, and I don't know what it means."
"Let's just go and see." After Su Mo Li replied, she took Cheng Tao to go over.
As soon as she reached the courtyard, she saw Li Qianshi walking over with a smile, "Li'er is here, come in, Master is waiting for you."
Saying that she held Su Mo Li's hand and walked in.
So attentive?
Su Mo Li's heart slightly sank. She wanted to see what Li Qianshi had come up with again.
After entering, they saw Su Xin Zhen and Su Jia Xuan were also there.
"Big Sister!" Su Jia Xuan's eyes lit up, and she called out, "Today, my master came over and asked about you."
Su Mo Li smiled gently and bowed towards Su Chen before walking to the side and sitting down, "Father."
Su Chen put down his teacup and nodded his head.
Su Xin Zhen gave Su Mo Li a mocking glance and said nothing.
Su Mo Li looked at Su Jia Xuan again and saw that Su Jia Xuan also shook her head. She couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Serve the food."
As Li Qianshi's voice fell, the maids came in with the food. Each kind of dish was explicitly Su Mo Li's favorite.
"Li'er eat quickly; everything here is what you love to eat."
Su Mo Li's eyelids couldn't help but twitch. Just in case, she actually pretended to like to eat these items, and every time she never ate them.
After all, there were usually many dishes on the table. She only had to put one more chopstick in a bowl of dishes, and it was fine.
But now the table is full of dishes she hates, how can she eat?
It's really was taking a stone and smashing your own feet!
On the side, Cheng Tao could not help but twitch the corners of her mouth as she looked at Su Mo Li with pity.
Su Mo Li expressionlessly ate the bitter melon, green vegetables, and fatty meat …
When she had eaten a small half bowl, she put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands: "Today I ate something with the Second Princess, so I can't eat much. Father and Mother and two sisters should eat more."
Li Qianshi glanced at Su Chen, put down her bowls and chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Today, I asked Li'er to come over because there is another thing that I need Li'er's help."
Su Mo Li had a smile on her face, and her eyes were clear: "Mother can just say whatever she wants to say, we are all family."
"Yes, I think so too. We are all a family; then I will say whatever I want to say." Li Qianshi smiled and said, "It's this. I discussed this with your father and want you to talk to Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi. Let them both come to the house to teach your brother.
Your brother was placed in my mother's house when he was five years old. Now he is also seven years old and has reached the age of enlightenment. He will return to the capital in ten days."
Su Mo Li's complexion darkened, and a puzzled look surfaced on her face: "Younger brother is so young, why should he be sent away?"
"This …" Li asked silk hesitantly, sighed, "Is it not because the Lord Chen's son is excessive, and bullied your brother. Your brother fought back and accidentally broke the head of the Lord Chen's son, so your father sent him away."
Su Mo Li sneered. A five-year-old child can break another person's head. Wasn't that arrogant?
"Oh? This Grand Duke Chen is too much; I wonder how Grand Duke Chen bullied his younger brother?" Su Mo Li said, pretending to be angry.
Li Qianshi's eyes flashed with a hint of uncertainty: "It's nothing; it's just that your brother accidentally destroyed Grand Duke Chen's books.
You don't need to ask this; you just need to invite Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi to come."
Su Chen frowned: "Our Su family only has one male heir, Lin'er. We must give him the best so that when the time comes, we can win glory for the Su family and support you, three sisters."
Li Qianshi hastily nodded: "Yes, when you get married in the future, if you want to get a foothold in your husband's family, you still have to rely on your father and brother in your maternal family. Li'er, what do you think?"
Su Mo Li put down the teacup, slowly said: "Grandmaster Feng He's side, I dare not guarantee it."
"After all, Grandmaster Feng He is highly respected. Even if you are nominally his master, it is not good enough to force him. So, please ask Miss Shi." Su Chen said slowly.
Li Qianshi had an unwilling look on her face.
Su Mo Li shook her head and said in a serious manner, "Father misunderstood. What I mean is, on Miss Shi's side, she will definitely not come. Grand Duke Chen loves books like his life, but younger brother destroyed Grand Duke Chen's books. In Miss Shi's opinion, if younger brother's character is worrying, she will not teach."
*Bang!*
Su Chen slammed the table, "Nonsense!"
Su Xin Zhen said smugly, "Big Sister, you are not Miss Shi; who are you to speak in her place. It's not that you think Younger Brother has a deficiency in virtue, right? He's only seven years old, and you're smearing him like this?"
Su Chen's eyes had a dangerous look, and he coldly stared at Su Mo Li: "How do you explain Zhen'er's words?"
"Li'er, if you are not willing to help, that's all you need to say. Why do you say this about your brother? This is your own brother! How can you …" Li Qianshi whispered as she cried.
Su Chen said with a sullen face: "Lin'er is my Su family's only son. If you do not help him, in the future, if you have an accident, don't think that the Su family will help you!"
Only son?
When her own mother died, she was pregnant with her own brother!
Su Mo Li laughed lightly, lowered her eyes, and took a few deep breaths. No, her anger can not be suppressed!
"Virtue has no loss. Don't you have a number in your heart?"

Su Mo Li's words stunned everyone present.
Obviously, they did not expect that the Su Mo Li would actually say such words directly.
Su Xin Zhen was the first to respond and stood up in a flash: "Father! You see, this is what she really said!
She doesn't want to help her brother at all! All she's looking for are excuses!"
Su Mo Li blinked her big eyes. With a light smile on her face, she reached out, straightened her sleeves, and stood up: "I can't decide what Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi want, sorry."
With that, she was about to leave.
However, she was directly stopped by Su Xin Zhen.
"You say the words clearly!"
Su Mo Li looked at Su Xin Zhen in confusion: "What I said is not clear enough? It seems that Sister needs to study hard, otherwise if you don't understand such a simple meaning of what I said, if someone speaks more profoundly in the future, then Sister will be lost in the dark? If you don't respond correctly, you'll lose the face of the Su family."
"You! Who told you this? Now we are talking about our younger brother, how can you say that about him?"
Su Mo Li was silent for a while and looked at Su Chen: "Does Father also think that what I said is wrong? Or that it's nonsense? I just returned to the capital, and I was able to hear the gossip about my brother. My brother has been gone for two years, and according to what happened, everyone should have forgotten about it, yet …"
Su Mo Li smiled: "In this case, Younger Brother's actions were really disgraceful, and his conduct was indeed improper, but the good thing is that Younger Brother is still young, it is not impossible to teach him properly.
As for Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi, they will not be willing to have a person of such character as my brother, and I can't offend them because of this matter. If word gets out that I am disliked by Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi, then the Su family will also be affected. Father, don't you think so?
It is impossible to ruin the future of all of us in the Su family for Lin'er alone, right?"
Li Qianshi frowned and said slowly: "It's just to let you … "
"Mother." Su Mo Li directly interrupted Li Qianshi's words and said lightly, "The nature of Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi, no one knows better than me. Furthermore, Third Sister is now Miss Shi's disciple, do you want Miss Shi to drag Third Sister into trouble?"
Li Qianshi froze.
"Then how about this." Su Xin Zhen immediately said, "When Miss Shi comes over, let Miss Shi teach Younger Brother well and just not teach Xuan'er."
Su Jia Xuan looked at Su Xin Zhen incredulously, "On what grounds?"
"What do you mean by what grounds? Younger Brother needs to learn these things in order to run the Su family in the future, what's the use of you learning these things? If you want to learn, I will teach you. Besides, if the title of Miss Shi's disciple is given to Lin'er, it will be good for Lin'er. Father, do you think so?"
Su Chen thought about it and nodded: "Zhen'er is right."
Su Jia Xuan looked at Li Qianshi, but saw Li Qianshi said in a soft voice: "Xuan'er, if you want to learn, Mother will hire other teacher for you, you …"
"No!" Su Jia Xuan stood up and stared angrily at Li Qianshi, "Mother, I am also your daughter, why are you so biased?"
"You child, where am I biased? You … "
"Okay." Su Jia Xuan interrupted Li Qianshi's words, "Do you think that Master will let you go? My master is not an ordinary person, only she can pick her disciple!"
Su Mo Li felt that these people are really ridiculously stupid. Such a simple thing, but they actually couldn't figure it out?
"You try, maybe it will be possible? Besides, Lin'er is not worse than you, you … "
However Su Jia Xuan didn't wait for Li Qianshi to finish, she directly ran out.
"This child! Why is she so brain dead!" Li Qianshi was furious, but after all she is her own child and she cannot say anything. She was afraid that Su Chen would blame Su Jia Xuan for this, so she said, "This matter still has to be said to Li'er, Xuan'er is still small after all."
Su Mo Li could only feel that was funny: "I won't say anything about this matter, Father, Mother, I'll go first."
Saying that, Su Mo Li bypassed Su Xin Zhen and directly left.
Su Chen said with a sullen face, "First pick up Lin'er, then let's talk about the rest."
Su Xin Zhen only felt that she was in an extremely good mood and even ate an extra bowl of rice before going back.
The next day, after Su Mo Li returned from Old Madam Su's place, she sat in the courtyard, not knowing what she was thinking about.
Huang Fan and Cheng Tao looked at each other and both saw a puzzled look in each other's eyes.
An hour later, Su Mo Li changed her clothes: "Let's go into the Palace."
Cheng Tao hurriedly followed, and they went to the Second Princess's Palace. When Su Mo Li arrived, she sat by the window and drank tea without talking.
"Li'er, why are you not talking today?" Zhong Li Xi asked in confusion.
Su Mo Li shook her head: "I'm going to see the Emperor."
"Father?" Zhong Li Xi was even more puzzled, "Why are you looking for Father?"
Su Mo Li pursed her lips and smiled at Zhong Li Xi.
Zhong Li Xi sighed, "Okay, I'll take you there, let's go."
Saying that, she held Su Mo Li's hand and walked out.
When they arrived at the Imperial study, Zhong Li Xi found an excuse to leave.
For Zhong Li Xi's attitude, Su Mo Li's heart was very grateful.
The Emperor was also very puzzled as to why Su Mo Li came to him. Only after seeing Su Mo Li sit down did he ask with a smile, "Is there something wrong with Li'er?"
"Your Majesty, there is something fishy about my mother's death, I have found some evidence, please give me a chance to find out the cause of my mother's death, Your Majesty."
As soon as the words fell, Su Mo Li knelt down: "At first, it was said that my mother died of a disease, but after I returned to the house, I found the prescription that was used to treat my mother. It was a prescription for ordinary wind and cold."
Saying that, Su Mo Li then took out the prescription and handed it to the Emperor.
"So, I do not believe that my mother just died of an infectious disease, I want to investigate, please Your Majesty fulfill my wish."
The Emperor looked at the yellowed paper in his hands and frowned: "How do you know that this prescription is your mother's prescription?"
"Your Majesty, there is no impermeable wall in the world. If you want to find something, it can always be found." Su Mo Li's eyes appeared firm, "Your Majesty has reason to be suspicious but I will find all the evidence, just asking Your Majesty to do justice to my mother."
"Good, if you can find out, I'm willing to give you justice." The Emperor put down the prescription and said slowly.
"Get up."
Su Mo Li stood up, walked to the desk and took out a piece of paper: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Here is a small token of appreciation, please accept it."
After saying that, Su Mo Li bowed, turned around and left.
The Emperor picked up the paper and opened it. He took a breath and stood up directly: "Quick! Stop County Princess Su Rou!
No, ask County Princess Sou Rou to come back safely!"
Although Da Guozi was puzzled, he still followed the Emperor's instructions and called her back.
Su Mo Li smiled and said to Da Guozi: "You go back to report to the Emperor, everything should be done according to what is written."
Da Guozi was still a little hesitant.
"No need to panic, the Emperor will not blame you."
Thinking of the Emperor's expression just now, Da Guozi nodded: "Take care, Princess."
Only then did he go back to his post.
The Emperor listened to his words and took a deep breath. The excitement on his face made Da Guozi feel a little strange: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
The Emperor slowly said: "I could not have imagined that the Golden Pavilion is actually a business under the name of Li'er. The Imperial treasury is empty. The owner of the Golden Pavilion has solved the urgent need, and then signed an agreement with me. From now on, 10% of the proceeds of the Golden Pavilion will be shared with me, and I will protect the Golden Pavilion."
"What?" Da Guozi was full of shock, "County princess Su Rou actually gave such a profitable industry to you, Your Majesty?"
"Yes!" The Emperor laughed, "I think, she also wanted to use this industry to negotiate with me before. Only I did not expect that as soon as I agreed to her request, this girl gave this to me, and also asked me to keep this matter quiet.
This girl … we do not know her well enough ah!" The Emperor said this slowly, "So, you go call Grandmaster Feng He and Miss Shi over. I would like to know what else this girl is hiding from me."
Da Gouzi heart dropped with a "thud". He glanced at the Emperor, but could not distinguish between his happiness and sadness.
After thinking about it, he still said: "County Princess Su Rou did all this to get justice for Princess Huimin. Not only that, but she also helped the Emperor a lot.
I know all this, all right, I still don't know what you are thinking?"
The Emperor glanced at Da Guozi: "Go invite them over."
After Feng He and Shi Zhu came over, the Emperor exchanged a few pleasantries and then asked about Su Mo Li.
Feng He and Shi Zhu glanced at each other and slowly said, "The relationship between me and County Princess Su Rou, Your Majesty should know that County Princess Su Rou can be said to be my master. If we put aside this identity, if we have a disciple like County Princess Su Rou, it would be a blessing for our group."
Shi Zhu was silent for a while and said, "County Princess Su Rou's talent is very impressive, but her health is not good and she has delayed many things.
She is a very smart person, and can also grow in adversity, only, I did not expect that Su Mo Li, who has suffered so much is actually the first daughter of the Prime Minister and Princess Huimin as well as your niece."
Speaking of this, Shi Zhu snorted, "Your Majesty, your niece is bullied by someone, this is not putting you in their eyes ah!
Although I have conflicts with Su Mo Li, I have to say that she is really pitiful.
She has earned her current status.
By the way, I heard that her own mother died in a very strange way. Your Majesty, you also did not properly investigate? I think that Prime Minister Su is not a good person."
The corner of Feng He's eyes twitched. He a sip of tea from the side and maintained a high profile.
The Emperor's face sank a few points: "Miss Shi be careful what you say."
"Tch." Shi Zhu leaned back in her chair with her hands behind her head, "Since the Emperor does not believe me, then it can't be helped. But the Emperor should investigate properly, rather than trust people, ah! This corruption is not a trivial matter. Your Majesty, your hard-earned silver is divided by these corrupt officials, are you not angry?"
The Emperor said indifferently: "I know what I want to know, the two of you please go back."
Shi Zhu stood up, swept a glance at the Emperor, lightly laughed twice: "Your Majesty, the person you value is a murderer and a corrupt official yet you are not afraid?"
The Emperor's face sank once again, his eyes were deep and profound.
After going out, Feng He looked helplessly at Shi Zhu: "Imperial power is not to be provoked ah."
Shi Zhu raised her eyebrows: "Is he the only Imperial power that I've provoked? Moreover, Su Mo Li was bullied like this, are you not distressed?"
Feng He smiled: "Don't you hate Su Mo Li?"
Shi Zhu coldly snorted, and her eyes crossed with a trace of killing intent: "No one in this world can bully her except me, if some people do not have eyes, do not blame me Shi Zhu for mercilessly … "
60: Step by Step
NOVEMBER 3, 2021 ~ E THEE YOUTUBE BABE
At night, Su Mo Li walked out in her night stalking clothes.
Right after arriving at the private room of the restaurant, she saw Shi Zhu.
Wearing a white dress, Shi Zhu held a wine glass in one hand and put one hand casually on her crossed legs, with a smiling look on her face.
Seeing Su Mo Li sit down, she put down her crossed legs and looked at Su Mo Li with raised eyebrows: "What a miserable mess! This is how you take revenge?"
Su Mo Li laughed lightly, picked up a pair of chopsticks and started to eat while saying: "No, I just want to make the things he especially wants to disappear one by one through the official way, so that he can feel pain.
Therefore, I have to plan properly. If I let him die directly, it would be too unpleasant and too cheap."
Su Mo Li's words made Shi Zhu give a thumbs up: "Ruthless, you are totally ruthless. Speak up, do you need my help?
Although you stood me up, since you have something serious to do, I'll forgive you."
Shi Zhu's generous look amused Su Mo Li.
After thinking about it, she said slowly: "There is one thing that I need your help with.
Su Chen likes your paintings very much, so if you offer to come visit the study, he should agree.
I've searched all the places in Su mansion and only the study is left."
"What are you looking for?" The smile on Shi Zhu's face disappeared, and was replaced by a serious look.
"The account book." Su Mo Li said softly, "What is written in it is the evidence of Su Chen's embezzlement."
"Good."
Shi Zhu nodded, "Tomorrow I will go to Su Mansion."
"Many thanks." Su Mo Li lifted the wine glass, "Have a drink?"
Before Shi Zhu could say anything, she saw Su Mo Li drink it all in one go.
The corners of her mouth twitched and she called the waiter. After saying a few words, the shopkeeper quickly came up and sighed: "Miss is drunk after one cup, how can this be good?"
Shi Zhu looked at Su Mo Li and had a bit of a headache. She shouldn't have ordered wine just now!
The shopkeeper is also a bit helpless. Su Mo Li already has the feeling of drunkenness and the scene in front of her wobbled. She blinked hard and could not easily see Shi Zhu's figure: "That, I thought my alcohol tolerance had increased, I'm really sorry."
"Pfft!"
The whole person rolled straight down from the chair, fell on the floor, and fell asleep.
The shopkeeper's eyes were wide and incredulous as he watched this sequence of actions: "This … "
Shi Zhu had a bit of a headache: "You go find a carriage, I'll take her to my place."
Because of Shi Zhu and Feng He's identity, the Emperor specially gave the two people each a mansion.
The sound coming from the carriage wheels was extraordinarily clear in the silent night.
In the carriage, Shi Zhu looked at the unconscious Su Mo Li, could not help but mutter: "Not afraid that I will sell you!"
Su Mo Li seems to have sensed the situation. She rolled over and wrapped an arm directly around Shi Zhu's waist.
The intimate move made Shi Zhu suddenly blush. Her hand threw Su Mo Li's hand to the side. Looking at the arm that slammed against the table, the sound made Shi Zhu's mouth twitch. This should be very painful …
Su Mo Li turned over, revealing her small face. The delicate features let Shi Zhu be in a trance, and her mind inexplicably thought of the first time when she saw Su Mo Li.
Su Mo Li is obviously smaller than herself, but she calmly hid herself, so that those thugs could not find her.
She was obviously so thin and weak, but she always gave all the food to herself. If she hadn't seen that she was late in coming back and went out to look for her, she wouldn't have found her, and she would have passed away from hunger.
"Ai … "
Shi Zhu sighed and a helpless look appeared on her face, "Who let me owe you, eventually I have to pay it back."
When they arrived at the mansion, Shi Zhu arranged a room for Su Mo Li, before returning to her own room and sleeping.
Su Mo Li woke up in the latter half of the night. She rubbed her brow and drank the still warm sober soup next to her before walking out.
"Going away?"
Shi Zhu turned to look at Su Mo Li.
Su Mo Li responded, "See you tomorrow."
After saying that, she exerted her inner strength and quickly left.
However, not long after leaving, a black shadow flashed by.
Su Mo Li stood on the roof of who knows who's house and looked at the oncoming black shadow and raised her eyebrows: "Crown Prince?"
Zhong Li Shi glanced at Su Mo Li in surprise. After arriving in front of her, his eyebrows faintly wrinkled: "You've been drinking?"
Su Mo Li: "… "
"The Crown Prince has a good nose."
Zhong Li Shi's eyes flashed with a trace of disapproval: "It's late at night, County Princess Su Rou should pay more attention to it."
Su Mo Li smiled: "Farewell."
However, just as she tried to use her internal energy, she couldn't stand up and fell straight down from the roof!
Zhong Li Shi quickly rushed over!
*Bang! *
Su Mo Li touched her buttocks and looked at Zhong Li Shi who was standing by the side, the corners of her mouth twitched fiercely: "His Highness the Crown Prince couldn't save me a little?"
Zhong Li Shi looked at Su Mo Li and slowly said, "Men and women should not be close to each other."
Su Mo Li: "… "
Can she hit someone?
Is this the time to talk about male and female intimacy?
Should there not be a hero to save the beauty?
This prince is not right in the head!
Zhong Li Shi was also very embarrassed.
It's not his fault, it's just that there were many ladies who wanted to use this bitter ploy before. After he fell for it twice, he didn't dare to save the beauty anymore!
Su Mo Li stood up, took a step forward, and the pain coming from her ankle made her silent for a while.
"My foot is twisted."
Su Mo Li did not have the good grace to look at Zhong Li Shi: "You carry me back!"
Zhong Li Shi raised his eyebrows and thought about which way he should carry the person in front of him.
Su Mo Li thought Zhong Li Shi was reluctant, said: "Can you not be squeamish! When you were injured, it was me who carried you to the Palace gate! I have saved you, you can't help me even once?"
"What?" Zhong Li Shi snapped his head up, "It's you!"
Su Mo Li glanced at Zhong Li Shi in confusion, and saw that Zhong Li Shi had a complicated face; like he wanted to say something but couldn't. It was a bit strange: "What's wrong with you?"
"How can you hold a man like that?"
Zhong Li Shi finally couldn't help but say it, and then the tips of his ears flushed red.
Su Mo Li nodded: "Then I'll change the way I hold men later, can you carry me back first? It's almost dawn."
Zhong Li Shi frowned deeply: "Later do not hug men."
Then, he carried Su Mo Li on his back: "If those men are just trying to cheat your kindness, what should you do?"
Su Mo Li lay on Zhong Li Shi's back and her voice soft and comfortable: "I won't lose anything either!"
"You!"
Zhong Li Shi frowned deeper and deeper: "You're a girl, it's always you who suffers!"
"They can't beat me." Su Mo Li couldn't help but say, "So I won't lose out either."
Zhong Li Shi had a headache.
Su Mo Li was a little confused.
She did not feel that she was wrong to do so.
When you meet someone who needs to be saved, even if it's a man, you still have to save them!
After all, it is beneficial to yourself.
For example, Shi Zhu, at first if she did not know her identity, she would not save.
But fortunately she saved her, otherwise she would have starved to death.
For a while, both did not speak.
Without speaking, his attention could not be diverted, and Zhong Li Shi felt the softness of the person on his back. From time to time, there was a nice aroma lingering around the tip of his nose.
Zhong Li Shi only felt that his body's temperature was getting higher and higher, and it had already reached the level of dryness and heat.
The good thing is that he had already arrived at the Su Mansion. Su Mo Li slipped down, took a look at the Su Mansion gate, and carefully walked in through the side door.
Looking at Su Mo Li's back, Zhong Li Shi couldn't help but use his inner strength and jumped in. He saw that Su Mo Li was already being supported by her own maid and went back to her courtyard.
The next day, Old Madam Su learned that Su Mo Li had asked for a doctor, and after asking a few questions, she said with a smile, "This girl is too reckless, she doesn't have an old mama in that courtyard either."
Saying that, she sighed: "Is Momo Lin still here?"
Momo Ke was slightly stunned, and then waved away the crowd, "Old Madam, she's here."
"Go on, send her to Cui Zhu Yuan." Old Madam Su said slowly, "Back then, she did nothing wrong, yet she was driven away by that one who found a reason to do so.
I know that she was waiting for Li'er to come back.
Now what she was waiting for is here, let her go over."
"Yes."
Momo Ke answered and personally went to the servants room.
Momo Lin did heavy work every day and had been bullied by the underlings, but these days it was much better and she had a chance to breathe.
Hearing the news, Momo Lin was overjoyed. She hurriedly thanked her and followed Momo Ke to Cui Zhu Yuan.
Su Mo Li was helped out by Cheng Tao, and when she saw Momo Lin, a smile appeared on her little face. She was just about to say something when she coughed.
When Momo Ke saw this, her face was full of pity, and after saying a few words of care, she left.
"Miss!"
Momo Lin walked a few steps faster. Her lips trembled a few times and she wanted to say something, but could not say anything. Her pair of cloudy eyes filled with excitement.
Su Mo Li let Huang Fan help Momo Lin sit down, then said: "Momo, no need to be polite, you were my mother's personal maid. I have a lot of things I want to ask you, but things are not urgent, you first take good care of your body.
You just need to know that I don't believe that Mother died of the disease."
Momo Lin's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously while crying silently.
"Momo just rest, leave the rest to me."
Su Mo Li smiled at Momo Lin: "Huang Fan, take Momo down to rest."
After the two people left, Cheng Tao asked, "Miss, how did you know that the Old Madam would assign Momo Lin to you?"
"These few days I have been asking people to say something about Momo Lin from time to time. Grandmother loves me and naturally she also knows Momo Lin's loyalty. It was just a matter of time before she gave her to me."
Su Mo Li smiled gently: "By the way, is Shi Zhu here?"
"Miss Shi came an hour ago and is now in the master's study." Cheng Tao answered.
Su Mo Li nodded: "Since Shi Zhu is helping me to find something, then we can't be idle either. I heard that Su Xin Zhen went to see the Second Prince today? Great, you go and arrange for those two women. In this mansion, how can there be only one person, Li Qianshi, in sole favor?"
