Chapter 632 - Princess Caifengs Mind (2/2)

Furthermore, giving the gift to the Qin Kingdom was not something that Princess Caifeng could decide. So, she must have made such a decision in private. She had dared to use the South Pearl necklace without permission because she wanted to plot against Mo Xuetong and remove her from the position of Consort Xuan so that she would be able to be Consort Xuan.

As a result, Princess Caifeng did it so obviously, which showed that she was not a smart person!

People who were not smart sometimes tended to do stupid things on impulse. Mo Xuetong had no choice but to be wary of Princess Caifeng. Now that the girl had dared to harm her in the palace earlier, she might do something out of line as they were in the manor now. Mo Xuetong did not want to be the person involved in the b.l.o.o.d.y crime.

“Mo Yu, go and tell them that I will be there in a while.” The last time Mo Xuetong did not see the princess because she had to enter the palace in time. It would not proper if she did not see her this time. After all, Mo Xuetong was the hostess while the princess was a guest and lived in King Xuan’s Manor. To perform the duties of the hostess, she needed to meet her.

“Mo Ye, go and invite the three concubines in the back courtyard to come over. Since Princess Caifeng wants to meet me, then let her meet us together.” Mo Xuetong smiled slightly. There were only three people left in the back courtyard, and they all lived in the same courtyard. After so many things had happened, they seemed quiet recently. Then they could go to meet Princess Caifeng together.

The concubines did not dare to refuse when they heard that Consort Xuan of the front courtyard had summoned them. They each brought a maidservant with them to come. Mo Xuetong did not speak much to them and brought them with her into Princess Caifeng’s courtyard.

When she heard that Mo Xuetong had come, Princess Caifeng personally went to the entrance of the courtyard to welcome her and took Mo Xuetong in politely. She looked completely different from how she was in the palace and was very hospitable. As they all seated according to their status. The three concubines also sat down on their chairs.

“Consort Xuan, who are these people?” Princess Caifeng pointed at the three concubines seated below and her eyes narrowed slightly.

“They’re the three concubines in our manor. This is Concubine Qin; this is Concubine Yun; and this is Concubine Wen!” Mo Xuetong gently reached out and introduced them one by one. The several concubines also stood up and bowed respectfully again.

“Only three?” Princess Caifeng was speechless. She had heard that King Xuan had many beauties in his back courtyard, but why were there only three left?

“There were a few more but… some died and some were sold later. His Highness left the three of them in the back courtyard.” Mo Xuetong hesitated for a moment, looking as if it was hard to speak.

Everyone in the Great Qin knew that there were the most beauties in King Xuan’s Manor, comparing with other manors. However, there were only three concubines left as some had died and some had been sold. Then there must be a lot of beauties dead and sold. Princess Caifeng herself also grew up in an imperial palace and knew how b.l.o.o.d.y it was. When she thought of King Xuan, who looked like he dared to do anything, she could not help but s.h.i.+ver.

There was not the slightest expectation.

In her mind Feng Yuran was no longer the handsome, charming prince she had first thought, but a devil from h.e.l.l.

The smile on her face seemed to have become uncomfortable. She did not dare to say anything about her intentions. If she really annoyed that devil, it would be a big deal! She was now afraid that Feng Yuran would find out about the fact that she almost killed Mo Xuetong.

“My Lady, I’m going to move, so I want to ask you to send some people to help us. After all, my elder brother and Qianyue have to move too. We may not be able to move so quickly.” Princess Caifeng waved her hand slightly, and then two seductively dressed women, who were standing behind her, quietly left.

The two women had come face to face with Mo Xuetong just now and they looked shy. However, their faces were pale because of Princess Caifeng’s gesture. They did not dare to say anything and left hurriedly. Mo Xuetong seemed as if she did not see anything and still had a clear and carefree look in her eyes.

“Princess Caifeng, you’re too polite. I will naturally order people to help you move. You’ve been wronged for the past few days. I’m not in good health and the concubines can’t directly receive you. Please forgive us,” Mo Xuetong smile politely in the manner of the hostess.

She even stood up with the help of Mo Ye, as if she was about to bow and apologize to Princess Caifeng.

How dare Princess Caifeng make Mo Xuetong bow to her? She immediately stood up and hurried to hold Mo Xuetong’s hand to stop her. “Consort Xuan, you are too polite. I have come all the way here and have disturbed you. It is my fault. I do not dare to accept your apology.”

“You’re too polite, Your Highness. When you settle down, I’ll treat you and have a chat.” Mo Xuetong grew even gentler and her att.i.tude was very close, which made Princess Caifeng relieved. She no longer had any intention of becoming an enemy with Mo Xuetong. She had been forced to retreat by Feng Yuran’s evil aura in a single round. She only wanted to make up for her mistake earlier. She had planned to send the two beauties to Feng Yuran, but changed her mind when she saw Mo Xuetong came with several concubines.

She didn’t know what that adulterous man was thinking, and she didn’t want to annoy him again.

Fortunately, Princess Caifeng felt relieved as she found that Mo Xuetong didn’t dwell on what had happened in Cining Palace! She would become Consort Ning and be left alone in the Qin Kingdom. Even if she did not have friends, she could not have a powerful enemy like King Xuan.

Since they intended to make it up, they had a most agreeable chat. The concubines couldn’t get in the conversation, so they just sat aside and listened to them. While talking, Mo Xuetong glanced at them and found that these concubines really had something on their minds, which was not simple matters.

Concubine Qin lowered her head and pinched the handkerchief in her hand. No one knew what she was thinking about.

Concubine Yun smiled with a respectful and obedient look on her face, as if she was listening attentively.

Concubine Wen looked at the palace maids by the gate in a trance…
