Chapter 93 – Blame it on the Rain (2/2)
“Do you know what the Queen said?” Mo Yu asked after she took off the leftover makeup from last night.
Chen Chang Sheng was silent. Previously, he had told Tang Thirty Six that he wanted to know the Divine Queen’s opinion but now that it was actually happening, he suddenly didn’t want to know anymore.
“The Queen said, ‘kids just like to fool around.’”
Mo Yu didn’t turn around, but she continued, “Although you are also a kid, the Queen wasn’t talking about you.”
Chen Chang Sheng knew that perhaps even until today, the Divine Queen never heard of his name. The kid she talked about was Luo Luo.
“Emperor Bai and his wife sent Princess Luo Luo to the Queen to take care of her. The Queen is her elder and therefore if she is mentoring her, Princess Luo Luo must obey her words. Previously the princess was studying at the Tradition Academy and recognized you as her teacher. The Queen didn’t want to bother with your business because she regarded this as a game but you guys made too big of a mess at the Ivy Festival.”
Mo Yu looked into the mirror and saw the reflection of the youngster, “the Queen doesn’t want the princess to fool around with you anymore.”
Chen Chang Sheng lowered his head and stared at the floor. He was silent.
“Don’t rely on Princess Luo Luo’s name. You will be left with nothing if the Queen spoke even a word against you. You must understand this.
“I never had anything in the capital and so, I have nothing to lose.” Chen Chang Sheng replied.
“What about your life? I’m surprised that you are still standing in front of me. It seems that Tian Hai Sheng Xue is more careful now than before……oh right, you know nothing about that guy. Don’t be mistaken, although he seems like a sane person, Tian Hai Ya Er isn’t even close to his level when Tian Hai Sheng Xue goes crazy. If he never went training in the Snowing Gate and concealed his temper, you would’ve probably died in front of Tradition Academy’s door this morning.”
Chen Chang Sheng raised his head and looked at her in the mirror, “General Tian Hai’s temper is still not good. This morning, he truly wanted to kill me. The reason I can still stand here right now isn’t because he showed mercy, but rather because he couldn’t kill me…….”
He continued, “Just like last night, I was able to show the marriage vow to the entire world. It’s not because you showed mercy, but rather because you couldn’t seal me.”
Mo Yu raised her eyebrow slightly. She wasn’t particularly happy.
“Usually you don’t talk as much.”
“I also think it’s strange. No matter in front of Wei Yang Palace, in the ruined garden, or right now, I always talk more when facing you.”
Mo Yu turned around and looked at Chen Chang Sheng quietly. For some reason she shook her head.
She didn’t understand. Although this youngster was so ordinary, why Princess Luo Luo respected him so much? Even Xu You Rong sent letters herself to talk about him. Even if Chen Chang Sheng behaved extraordinarily at the Ivy Festival, she still couldn’t understand.
What she cared and was most confused about was still that question.
“How did you leave the Tong Palace?”
Chen Chang Sheng didn’t answer, he just looked at her.
At that moment, Mo Yu had already taken off her makeup. Her skin was white and smooth. Her eyebrows were sharp and her eyes were lively. She seemed to be a lady around twenty eight years old.
But she wasn’t a naive lady. She was the most powerful official of Zhou Dynasty.
She was behind the plans of Luo Luo leaving Tradition Academy for Academy of Li Palace, and she hinted the members of Tian Hai Family to come this morning.
She was the mastermind behind all this and she was also the biggest enemy of Tradition Academy right now.
“Some people think the rise of Tradition Academy and you symbolize something. But both you and I know that it is all a coincidence.”
She looked at Chen Chang Sheng and said, “Previously, Xu Shi Ji requested me to do something, but his daughter sent me a letter as well. I didn’t know how to handle this situation after thinking about it for a long time. Therefore, I forced you into the Tradition Academy and waited for nature to take its course. But I never expected that you would encounter Princess Luo Luo here and rise from this graveyard.”
Chen Chang Sheng said, “Yes, this is how things went.”
Mo Yu’s expression gradually turned cold, “One of my random actions made such a mess. But how can this trouble me? I don’t care about the existence of the Tradition Academy. I only care about the completion of my goal.”
Chen Chang Sheng asked, “What are you trying to do?”
“Everything will end the same way it began and so will this. Since this trouble started from the marriage vow, then let’s end it with the marriage vow. Take out the marriage vow and disband the agreement. It’s your best choice to start over.”
“Xu You Rong has recognized this marriage vow.”
“Did you ever think about the reason why she recognized this marriage vow? Do you really think she likes you? You really believe that a woman like her would marry a stranger just because of her parents’ words? Or do you think that she really cares about keeping promises?”
Mo Yu looked at him and said, “Since you were able to debate with Gou Han Shi, you are obviously a smart person. The moment you saw the letter brought by the crane last night, you should have already realized her intention. Why are you pretending to know nothing about it? Aren’t you ashamed of being used as an excuse?”
