The Great Planned Marriage: Becoming A Splendid Princess
Unexpectedly, Mo Junyang did not refuse Zeng Zhi’s invitation. After frowning, he nodded at Zeng Zhi instead, and said gently, “Then I shall bother you.”
Zeng Zhi was still astonished when he left, as if he were hit by pennies from the heaven and lost his consciousness.
Qu Yuebai couldn’t hold it back and teased him in a low voice, “If the Crown Prince knows that you are so considerate and kind to scholars for his great cause, he will definitely wake up laughing.”
Although he said it, Que Yuebai didn’t believe that Mo Junyang really came a long way to Yecheng County just in order to motivate a county magistrate for Mo Junyu’s business at all.
Probably even the Left and Right Prime Minister couldn’t succeed in inviting this god!
As for the reason why Mo Junyang was willing to come, it should be too easy to guess.
Mo Junyang glanced at Qu Yuebai and said indifferently, “Are you idle?”
Qu Yuebai shut his mouth in a hurry and made a gesture of sealing his mouth, indicating that he wouldn’t say another word.
Since then, Qu Yuebai had always been quiet. He didn’t follow Mo Junyang to attend the banquet of the Zeng Family. He didn’t have his position as a staff in such a situation, and he didn’t care about it.
While everyone was having dinner, Qu Yuebai and Wei Zichao quickly made an assessment of the entire Zeng Family. Any dangers and uncertainties were under their control.
In a small county like Yecheng, Mo Junyang’s identity was enough to amaze many people. The Zeng Family spared no efforts in serving him. They almost consecrated him as if he were their ancestor.
Compared with him, Shi Qingxue was treated much worse.
However, Shi Qingxue didn’t mind it at all. She watched the Zeng Family flatter Mo Junyang with great interest, thinking that this time he suffered a lot!
With Mo Junyang’s temperament, he would never deal with others courteously but without sincerity. Once he became impatient, he could instantly kill them. But at this time, he had to pretend to be calm and listen to Madam Luo of the Zeng Family, Shi Baojing’s aunt, praising her own daughter.
Accompanied with the shy and timid appearance of her daughter, the intention to match them together was obvious.
But Shi Baojing became more and more anxious. When Mo Junyang frowned again, she finally couldn’t help but say, “It is the first time that Your Excellency has come to Yecheng County. Let me show Your Excellency around.”
Mo Junyang raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t speak yet, when Zeng Yi, Shi Baojing’s cousin, said hurriedly, “How can Baojing be more familiar with Yecheng County than me? Let me go with Your Excellency!”
Mo Junyang didn’t even look at Zeng Yi, and said straightforwardly, “There’s no need. I am exhausted, so I shall go back to the room and rest first.”
Zeng Zhi grabbed Zeng Yi, who still wanted to say something, and said quickly, “In this case, we will not disturb Your Excellency. If there were any need, Your Excellency could order us again.”
Mo Junyang nodded, and glanced at Shi Qingxue before he left.
As he left, Zeng Yi immediately became unhappy. She pouted her mouth and complained, “Dad, it is rare for His Excellency to come here. Why do you let him go? I haven’t talked with him yet! In this way, when will he fall in love with me?”
“Ahem!” Shi Qingxue coughed twice before reluctantly holding back the laughter that had reached her lips.
Zeng Yi glanced at Shi Qingxue strangely and asked in doubt, “Qingxue, are you sick? Why do you cough?”
Shi Qingxue waved her hand and pressed her voice, saying, “I’m okay. I was just choked by water. You go on. Don’t mind me.”
“Okay!” Zeng Yi believed it. Her attention was not on Shi Qingxue at all. She complained again, “Dad, I don’t care. Tomorrow you must make His Excellency hang out alone with me, so that he can know how good I am.”
After that, Zeng Yi nodded seriously, as if Mo Junyang would definitely fall for her as long as they spent time alone together.
Zeng Zhi looked serious and reprimanded loudly, “Nonsense. How great His Excellency is! Who are you to match with him? You’d better dispel this unrealistic idea as soon as possible. I will find you a marriage with an appropriate family next year. You won’t be wronged.”
As soon as Madam Luo heard this, she became unhappy, “Zeng Zhi, what do you mean? What is our daughter weak in? Why doesn’t she deserve His Excellency?
In my opinion, our daughter is pretty and intelligent. She can be elegant outside and be virtuous inside. She is too qualified to be the wife of King Rui’s eldest son! If you were not that useless, she would be in the palace and become a noble concubine!”
Well, Shi Qingxue finally knew why Zeng Yi was so confident.
Qingxue turned her head around and saw Shi Baojing’s embarrassed look, and silently held back her laughter. She pretended to be sleepy and yawned, “Uncle, Aunt, I am a little sleepy. I shall go to rest first.”
Zeng Zhi also didn’t want this awkward thing in his own family to be seen by others, so he quickly responded, “You have a good rest. If you need anything, feel free to tell me.”
As soon as Shi Qingxue left the living room, Zeng Zhi became strict again and reprimanded unhappily, “What nonsense are you talking? If the junior heard it, how bad it would be!”
Madam Luo was not afraid of him. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Huh! Who do you blame for your being useless? I must be blind so that I married you. I thought you had a sister who married to the Shi Family, and then your family would be prosperous. After I married you did I know that your sister was just a concubine of the second son in the Shi Family, who didn’t have a title and was short-lived…”
“Luo Jiaoniang!” Zeng Zhi yelled with anger and subconsciously turned to look at Shi Baojing.
Shi Baojing kept her head down, as if she hadn’t heard the dispute between the seniors.
Nevertheless, Zeng Zhi still felt embarrassed. He said irritably, “If you talk nonsense again, don’t blame me for divorcing you.”
Zeng Zhi opened up his eyes and glared at Luo Jiaoniang fiercely. He intended to slap her. But Zeng Yi shouted to stop his movement in panic, “Dad. Mom. Don’t quarrel!”
Zeng Yi looked sullen, showing an impatient expression. She shouted, “Mom, don’t you just think that father is not a great official so that you can’t show off in front of your sisters? You have me now!
As long as I get His Excellency, should my father still worry that he can’t be promoted or get rich? Should our family worry that no one flatters us? It will be better if you think of ways for me to catch the heart of His Excellency, rather than quarrel about those trivial things all day.”
The argument in the room was really calmed down by Zeng Yi’s arrogant words. She turned to talk to Shi Baojing, “Baojing, I find that you are in a good relationship with His Excellency. You help me to make an appointment with him by the Mingyang Lake tomorrow, and I will appear there by chance. Then I can accompany His Excellency to appreciate the lake. His Excellency will definitely change his opinion on me.”
Shi Baojing didn’t expect that she would turn to her for help. After a long while, she stuttered to say, “I, I am not familiar with him. His status is distinguished. How can I make an appointment with him as long as I want to?”
Zeng Yi raised her chin slightly and said arrogantly, “I don’t care. I have given you this task, anyway. I must meet His Excellency at the Mingyang Lake tomorrow morning.”
She yelled this command out as if she were assured and bold with justice. Even when Shi Qingxue had walked out of the lobby, she still heard it.
Qingxue couldn’t help being speechless. She felt that she was wrong to think that Zeng Yi was with a good shape but she was without a good brain. Wasn’t she quite smart? At least she had found a shortcut.
She sighed helplessly and didn’t intend to listen to the discussion in the room. When she just passed the corner, she saw Mo Junyang leaning leisurely against the beam column. Obviously, he also heard the conversation.
Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but ridicule with a smile, “Your Excellency is really charming. It hasn’t been one day since you arrived in Yecheng County yet, but you have one more admirer!”
Mo Junyang’s expression remained the same. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Jealous?”
Shi Qingxue hurriedly waved her hands. She couldn’t stand such admiration.
Mo Junyang stared straight at Shi Qingxue and suddenly asked, “You said before that we were not suitable?”
Shi Qingxue thought about it for a while before she was sure that it was a question, and then she nodded in doubt.
Mo Junyang smiled again, “If you are not suitable, who will be suitable?”
Shi Qingxue glared at him and showed a look, as if to say, “How can I know who is suitable for you?”
But Mo Junyang didn’t give Shi Qingxue time to express her thought. He said straightforwardly, “Didn’t you apologize and say sorry to me?”
“Yes. What’s wrong?” Shi Qingxue was a little embarrassed, but she wouldn’t deny what she had said.
Mo Junyang then asked, “Did you really mean it?”
Shi Qingxue glared at him again and responded angrily, “Of course I did mean it. Why should I lie to you? What exactly do you want? I have lived such a long time, but you are the first one to whom I have seriously apologized. Don’t you…”
She didn’t like to be entangled in this topic. It would embarrass her.
Mo Junyang said casually, “Is it enough to just say sorry?”
“What?” Shi Qingxue was astonished for a while. Then she realized that he implied that she was just saying. If she really felt guilty, she wouldn’t compensate him with just saying sorry.
Shi Qingxue’s face suddenly became hot. After a while, she barely calmed down, but she still didn’t dare to look at Mo Junyang’s eyes. She could only explain in a somewhat vague voice, “I really haven’t thought about compensation before. I was overwhelmed by my own matters. It would be ridiculous to talk about compensating you in that circumstance.”
She took a deep breath, and continued, “But since you have mentioned it, what do you want me to do? As long as I can, I will do my best.”
Speaking of this, Shi Qingxue felt herself a little pathetic.
She was so naive and longed for true love in her previous life. But she didn’t realize that she had indeed got what she longed for until she was dead for a long time.
The most pathetic thing was that she couldn’t accept that true love.
Mo Junyang got her promise in this matter. He didn’t look happier, nor did he look disappointed. He was just indifferent as usual.
After a while, he said softly, “I need a wife.”
“What?”
Shi Qingxue raised her eyes in surprise. She watched Mo Junyang for a while, and she was still not sure whether she had heard it wrong.
Mo Junyang didn’t repeat, but said coldly, “You heard it clearly.”
Shi Qingxue, “…”
She did hear it clearly. So she frowned and hesitated for a while before asking, “So do you want to marry Zeng Yi?”
Chapter 74: He Needed a Wife
Zeng Zhi was still astonished when he left, as if he were hit by pennies from the heaven and lost his consciousness.
Qu Yuebai couldn’t hold it back and teased him in a low voice, “If the Crown Prince knows that you are so considerate and kind to scholars for his great cause, he will definitely wake up laughing.”
Although he said it, Que Yuebai didn’t believe that Mo Junyang really came a long way to Yecheng County just in order to motivate a county magistrate for Mo Junyu’s business at all.

Luo Jiaoniang rested her hands on her hips and said with an arrogant attitude, “I dare you to divorce me! I never break the seven laws. For what reason can you divorce me? Zeng Zhi, I tell you. Don’t forget that you got this position of the County Magistrate with the help of our Luo Family. If you divorced me, you would be nothing!”Zeng Zhi opened up his eyes and glared at Luo Jiaoniang fiercely. He intended to slap her. But Zeng Yi shouted to stop his movement in panic, “Dad. Mom.
