Chapter 1274: His Highness is So Innocent

“It is because Ruolan is unduly jealous and unwilling to accept the miss of the Gao Family that things have escalated to this complicated state today!”

“All the sirs and misters present, please give your judgment! These daughters of the Qiao Family are excessively jealous by nature!” Zhou Yuan’s mom exclaimed dramatically, “Considering this, who would dare marry your daughters of the Qiao Family in the future!”

Her eyes shifted about calculatively as she proclaimed, “I heard your Qiao Family’s eldest daughter is going to be married off into the palace as the crown prince consort! Could it be that you will still demand for His Highness the Crown Prince to have your Qiao Family’s daughter as his only woman? Are you going to forbid His Highness from installing the 18 consorts of the Three Palaces and Nine Courts?”

Everyone looked at each other in bafflement, simply at a loss for words.

The flames from the fire had leapt onto His Highness the Crown Prince’s body in a strange turn of events.

His Highness had gotten shot even while lying down!

At this time, a magnetic voice let out a snigger. “That’s correct, but it won’t be just the 18 consorts of the Three Palaces and Nine Courts. Perhaps it’ll be double in number!”

Crown Prince Mo, who had gotten shot even while lying down, squinted his phoenix eyes as he scrutinized the crowd. “Duan Yue, don’t think that this crown prince can’t recognize your voice from your sarcasm.”

You want to pull a fast one on this crown prince? Dream on!

Qiaoqiao wouldn’t believe you.

Crown Prince Mo held Qiao Mu’s petite hand as he swept a cold gaze at Zhou Yuan’s mom, that foolish woman. “You old woman dare to attack This Highness with your irresponsible words?”

Zhou Yuan’s mom was totally dumbfounded as she stood there, gawking at that handsome man who commanded a godly presence.

Her mouth momentarily turned dry. “Highness? His Highness the Crown Prince?”

So the rumor which said that the crown prince doted on the Qiao Family’s eldest miss to no end was true.

The wedding of a mere Second Master Qiao, who had no merits to his name, was originally just a simple affair.

Just because he was Eldest Miss Qiao’s second uncle, the crown prince came on her account?

No wonder when her family’s old man learned that Pu Ruolan’s eldest uncle was the marquis of the Marquis of Jiayuan’s Estate, he castigated her and their son right to their faces. He rebuked them for being short-sighted and forced them to bring extravagant gifts with them today to coax their daughter-in-law Pu Ruolan back.

So it turns out there was this connection.

If the Zhou Family was able to become the Qiao Family’s in-laws again, then it would be easy as a breeze for them to have a meteoric rise in the future with their connection to Eldest Miss Qiao, the crown prince consort.

Zhou Yuan’s mom hastily knelt and kowtowed obsequiously in greeting. “This subject was unaware that Your Highness was present. This subject had made a slip of the tongue.”

With his status, Mo Lian naturally wasn’t going to lower himself to the same level as a foolish woman. He moved his gaze away, not bothering to get involved anymore.

Zhou Yuan hastily strode up and cupped his hands with a simper, explaining, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, this incident is only just a misunderstanding. This was originally family business, so I have allowed Your Highness the Crown Prince and all the officials present to witness a spectacle.”

Gao Qiqi swayed her full-bodied figure as she hung onto Zhou Yuan’s arm in a show of dominance. She arrogantly looked down on Pu Ruolan in distaste, saying, “Stop pretending, you should be laughing up your sleeve since Husband and Mother-in-Law are willing to come and take you back. You should know when to stop and not overdo it.”

If her eldest brother hadn’t earnestly exhorted that she should restrain herself, she wouldn’t let this b*tch enter the Zhou Family’s doors again.

In any case, her husband had assured her that he was only coaxing this silly woman back for the sake of the Marquis of Jiayuan’s Estate.

After they established connections to the crown prince through the marquis’s estate’s influence, this silly woman wouldn’t be of much use anymore in the future. At that time, she could kick around the silly woman however she pleased.

She was the daughter of the Gao Family, the richest family in the Mo Kingdom capital! There was so much food in their home that it was impossible to eat it all!
