Chapter 1047 – How Is This Good? (2/2)

……

……

Chen Changsheng glanced at the window, only seeing that it was still snowing.

He cared a great deal about cleanliness, but he still did not understand why women liked to take baths on such cold days.

Mo Yu truly deserved her reputation as the most famous beauty of the Tianhai government. She had just gotten out of the bath and her face was clean of makeup, but her appearance was still like a painting, her beauty moving.

If one discussed the famous events in the capital over the last two years, the most famous was probably Mo Yu's return.

Those Chen clan princes who hated the Tianhai Divine Empress to the bone had not given her any trouble for several reasons.

The Mo clan had suffered a tragic fate in the previous government, causing Mo Yu to gain the sympathy of many of the older ministers.

More importantly, she had been summoned by the emperor to return to the palace.

And Shang Xingzhou, out of respect for her grandfather, that famous Grand Scholar, had given his silent consent.

And there was another important reason: she was about to get married to a prince surnamed Chen, and it was that most annoying, useless, and least threatening prince.

”I still don't understand why you're marrying him.”

Chen Changsheng's question was one that everyone else in the capital was asking.

No matter what they felt to Mo Yu, whether it was love or hate, she was still Grand Lady Mo.

Everyone felt that the prince was not a good match for her.

”What's so bad about him? He's innately honest, has no ambition, I knew him when I was little, and most importantly, he's willing to trust me unconditionally.”

Mo Yu sat by the bed, using a soft cotton towel to wipe her damp hair. She casually continued, ”Back when the capital was in such chaos, he brought those subordinates that his brothers forced on him with the intention of coming to the Orange Garden to request my protection. In truth, he was the one that wanted to protect me. I have to return this affection.”

Chen Changsheng knew of this matter, as did everyone in the capital.

On the night of the coup of the Mausoleum of Books, ten-some princes entered the capital, taking enormous risks to separately assault the various ministries and strategic locations. As for the Prince of Louyang, he brought his experts all around the capital as he fled, not daring to do anything, not daring to kill anyone. He only wanted to find the Orange Garden, but he ended up getting lost.

This was not some beautiful story, but a comedy, a joke.

Many people thought that the Prince of Louyang was just a joke.

Chen Changsheng also felt this prince to be too mediocre and useless, not at all a good match.

”What's it mean to be a good match? It's fine as long as he treats me well.”

Mo Yu suddenly remembered something and said, ”In the future, you should treat him better as well. Don't be so rude.”

Chen Changsheng said, ”I'm just advising from the standpoint of a friend. Since you don't agree, I naturally won't bring it up in the future.”

Mo Yu glared at him and said, ”I'm talking about the Prince of Luling's estate. Just look at how badly you scared him, and you even knew he was a coward.”

Chen Changsheng himself did not know why he had treated the Prince of Louyang so rudely in the Prince of Luling's estate.

”He was acting as a messenger between you and your master and ended up with nothing good. Truly unfortunate.”

Mo Yu said, ”You were wrong in this matter.”

Chen Changsheng replied, ”I won't act like that in the future.”

Upon seeing him promise, Mo Yu actually became unhappy. ”Come over.”

Chen Changsheng froze for a second, then asked, ”To do what?”

Mo Yu replied, ”I want to hug you as I sleep.”
