”Alright!”
Mo Lianjue told Su Li a few more stories, some that had deep meanings, and some that helped others to awaken.
Su Li was attracted by his story. Looking at his calm and aloof manner when telling stories, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This kind of person with flaws since a young age was able to develop such a character. It was truly extraordinary.
”Crippled and ugly women are truly a match made in heaven.” A sharp female voice rang out from afar.
Su Li frowned and looked over, the one who spoke was a little girl who was around twelve to thirteen years old. Her young and tender face was filled with arrogance, her chin was slightly raised, and her eyes were looking down, as if she was looking down at everyone.
She still had Mu Qingge by her side. Because of what happened just now, she now met Su Li's gaze.
Seventh royal sister, two days ago at the academy, the tutor had just taught you that the biggest mistake of the world is to criticize and attack other people's weaknesses. This is the most wicked thing to do.
After Su Li heard this, from the way Mo Lianjue called him, he knew who the person was.
Emperor An's six sons, who had gone through great pains to get a Seventh Princess, naturally carried everything in their hands and spoiled her. Although her birth mother's clan wasn't obvious, she was still very favored by the Emperor An and was bestowed the title Wan Concubine, being only beneath the Empress and the Imperial Concubine.
Seventh Princess Mo Chanyu snorted coldly, ”Since Brother Fourth Emperor wants to be a good person, then you might as well take the initiative and ask for an edict. Even if you want to marry Su Li, you might as well drag Brother Fifth Emperor down with you and marry such an ugly monster.”
Mo Lianjue looked at Su Li, an apologetic expression flowing out of his eyes.
Su Li's expression changed. Originally, she did not want to attract too much attention within the palace, but this Seventh Princess at this moment, probably did not want to say anything more about her.
”What do you mean by 'cure the Fifth Emperor's illness', so they live in the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Who knows if they're trying to hook up with you in secret? You made the fifth brother ask to marry in order to preserve his reputation, how could you be willing to marry? Do you think you are worthy of the fifth brother? ”
”Seventh Princess, do you know what it means to be a king and have the ability to run horses?” Su Li asked sarcastically.
”This princess is telling you that you are shameless, so you shouldn't drag yourself to another place.”
Seventh Princess had just finished speaking when her sleeve was pulled by Mu Qingge who was beside her.
”Su Li is mocking you for having such a big face!”
”What?” Seventh Princess had never suffered such grievances before. She immediately became anxious, and wanted to throw herself at Su Li to give him a slap.
However, Mu Qingge tugged at her, ”If you make a move, then you won't be able to explain yourself.”
”As for the matter between me and the Fifth Prince, the Emperor will make the decision. As a princess who hasn't even reached the age of 15, aren't you afraid of blackening your own reputation by discussing these matters so shamelessly?”
”The Fifth Brother asked to marry the Fourth Miss in front of everyone. No one forced him, so if Seventh royal sister wants to stand out, she must at least understand the situation and not become someone else's chess piece for no reason.”
Once Mo Lianjue's words came out, it was unknown which of the Seventh Princess's nerves were touched.
She struggled free from Mu Qingge and rushed forward like an arrow, directly extending her hand towards the wheelchair …
Bang! The wheelchair fell to the ground!
The court lady and Su Li did not manage to react, when they did, Mo Lianjue was already lying on the ground, his palm was supporting the ground, and the stone corners of the road caused blood to flow.
The Seventh Princess was so angry that her eyes turned red, and she unrestrainedly pointed at Mo Lianjue, ”You are only a cripple, how are you qualified to speak to this princess in such a manner?”
At the same time Su Li stood up, the Palace Mistress went to support him with her wheelchair. However, just as the wheelchair was placed, the Seventh Princess kicked it down, causing the wheelchair to roll over again.
If not for the maid seeing that the situation was not good and had blocked Mo Lianjue, the wheelchair would have smashed onto him.
”There's a palace feast today, so this princess will not bother with you too much. I'll go to your Guandong Palace another day.”
As soon as Seventh Princess finished speaking, she cast a sidelong glance at Su Li, and pulled his hand as she prepared to leave.
”Wait a moment.” Su Li looked at Mo Lianjue who was on the ground. He was like a painting that was as warm as water, calm and beautiful, but now that the painting had been destroyed by the Seventh Princess, it made people feel uncomfortable.
Seventh Princess ignored Mu Qingge's hand, turned her head, and provokingly said to Su Li, ”Who do you think you are to dare …”
Seventh Princess had not even finished speaking when Su Li directly raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
