âI didnât think that heâd be so reluctant to pay me for the carriage, enough to kill me. I admit Iâve made some radical actions but that was because Iâm forced to do so.â
âIâm the Lord of our clan, I know my standing isnât as high as his highness but hurting him a little canât be considered as felony!â
Xuanyuan Li Tian almost coughed out blood. He is a royal prince and this woman seriously injured him, yet she is here saying that because his status is higher than her, he was the one oppressing her instead! He felt worried on how will his father emperor react.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Li Zhi really regrets on the promise he made for Mu Fengyun who suddenly vanished. Mu Fengyun used his elixirs to save his life.
Plus his business is thriving, so in order to win him over to his side, he gave him a lot of privileges.
As long as he(MF) is in the Purple Moon Kingdom, within thirty years, they will definitely not be the weakest against the strength of the Snow Continent.
He loves his children so much that when Mu Qian Xi was still in the womb of her mother, he announced his grand ambition to make this kingdom the strongest.
Once Mu Qian is born, whether male or female. The position of the Lord of the Mu Jia will be equal to that of the Prince.
Because of his decree before, even if Mu Qian Xi made a grave sin on hurting a prince. He canât condemn her on mere suspicion.
Xuanyuan Li Zhiâs face had become green, itâs the first time he came to understand what does shooting oneself in the foot means.
Though he has the highest status in the Purple Moon Kingdom, he always felt inferior compared to the Mu Jiaâs Lord.
In this Kingdom, she can be reckless as she wants as long as she does not take the Emperor and his sons lives. He canât even refute her even if wanted to.
Mu Qian continued. âYour Majesty, I wasted a lot of time in front of the Palace gates but his highness only paid me three hundred thousand gold taels. Your majesty can pay me on his highnessâ behalf. Lest the time be overstepped else his life will be my right to take.â
At this time, all the people in this room were completely frozen.
Asking payment to the Emperor when sheâs already rich, what blasphemy is this?
Some of them are officials yet they canât come up with that kind of amount in such short notice, moreover its gold!
In your eyes, weâre all broke is that it! Everyoneâs mood is gloomy.
Yue Xu said in a small voice. âOld man, isnât the Mu Jiaâs Lord awesome? Otherwise, how can big brother follow her? Itâs not too bad to be her little brother after all!â
âPow!â Yue Xu was given a hard spank by his father.
âYou heartless brat! Donât you compare yourself to your big brother! Even if sheâs rich, she wonât take you. You only know how to talk big, Iâll bet that sheâs also dissatisfied with you! â
With a teary eyes, Yue Xu said. âOld man, youâre being biased!â
The general looked at the girl sitting with his eldest son, he secretly sighed a sigh of relief!
Though he had been in a few battlefields, he still can not see the situation clearly.
Mu Jiaâs Lord although arrogant, wealthy and out of control, she still acts like a proper Lord, wary from the dangers that lurks on every side.
It was too dangerous for his eldest son to be with her.
But every member of their family always keep their words, no matter what he says, it wouldnât make a difference.
Naturally, there are also benefits. His son can now eat second-grade medicine pellets like beans.
If Yue Ze would continue to cultivate like he has always done before, added with the immortality pills maybe one day, he would be the first person to advance on Spirit Master under twenty years old.
Xuanyuan Li Tian almost fainted. In front of so many people, she said that he had no money to pay her back. What a disgrace!
At this time, even Xuanyuan Li Zhi was speechless, he feels that this little girl is more getting more difficult to deal with.
He glared at his son, who made him lose his composure and said. âI will send the seven hundred thousand gold taels to your residence today.â
Mu Qian chuckled. âI still have something to say your Majesty.â
She smiled and said. âSince Iâve won on my match with Ouyang Wei. I remember that the Emperor had promised me two things. Can I mention it now? â
Mu Qian laughed innocently, but they had seen her tough black heart before. Her requests are absolutely not an easy thing.
Xuanyuan Li Zhi has a bad feeling, he made his promises in public, if he refuse what would his subjects think?
âSay it!â A deep and low voice came out.
âA year and a half ago, my dowry was given to Your Majesty for safekeeping. Now that that the marriage contract is lifted, plus my familyâs recent financial is in dire straits. I would like Your Majesty to give me back my whole dowry.â She chanted while smiling.
She spoke in a calm manner, as if she had simply brought back what had been stored here by her elders.
But Xuanyuan Li Zhiâs face has become very ugly, he then smiled. âXi er, you and Tianâer feelings are true, this marriage isnât lifted and just a joke on my sonâs part. You are still the future Princess Consort, your dowry is worth a lot of money so it has been placed in the Treasury where it is relatively safe."
It was a huge amount of money, it was already in his mouth, he isnât willing to spit it all out.
Xuanyuan Li Tian tightly sealed his lips, he glanced at the woman standing proud in front of his father emperor. He had a little expectation that she would agree to have their marriage contract put back again.
And Mu Ruyun was mad, these two peopleâs marriage contract is finally lifted but the Emperor said that it was just a joke, how can she stay silent?
She looked at the seventh princeâs way and found out that he seems to agree on what his father is saying as if his heart was also moved by Mu Qian Xi.
Sure enough, the Emperor made a commanding look towards Xuanyuan Li Tian. Li Tian then stood from his seat and said. âItâs what Father Emperor has said, I love Xiâer and also do not want to divorce!â
Xuanyuan Li Zhi gave him a warning, he can only obey.
In fact, even if there is no warning coming from his father, Xuanyuan Li Tian will still agree.
Xuanyuan Li Tian turned to Mu Qian and said softly. âXi er, although we have some misunderstanding before, but I really want to marry you. Letâs forget the past, start over again? This time Iâll make you happy."
Jiu Yeâs gaze is like an arrow that falls down on Xuanyuan Li Tian.
He wanted the man to disappear completely from this world.
Xuanyuan felt his back gone cold and stiff, like he was thrown in the deepest part of h.e.l.l. A great sense of terror overwhelms him!
âBrother Li Tian, youâŠ..said that you loathe this woman⊠HoâŠâŠ How can you say you love her now!"
Xuanyuan Li Tian coldly said. âShut up! Donât be make such audacious remarks lowly woman!â
