Royal Consort, Come to be Hooked

"Yan, what's wrong, are you unwell?" Seeing that she did not move, Mo Wende thought that his words had shocked her.

Mo Qingyan shook his head, "Daughter is fine, I'm just thinking about which gift I should bring to Prime Minister's Mansion."

Pick something expensive, although it is a personal relationship between you girls, but you can't let others look down on our Minister's Mansion. What do you think?

Gifts were only for personal use. If Minister's Mansion could really be on good terms with Prime Minister's Mansion, then it could be considered a pretty good return.

Mo Qingyan's first impression of Prime Minister's Mansion was that it was grand and imposing, at least looking at it from the doorway, no matter if it was the decoration or the atmosphere, it was much stronger than his own family.

"Miss Mo, please come in."

A servant was already waiting at the door, ushering them in through the side door.

Mo Qingyan walked along the corridor along the bluestone path all the way to the backyard. He did not squint at all and only the Ah Nuo beside him shook his head.

In the pavilion, Chu Rou, who was in the midst of embroidery, raised his head with a smile plastered on his face, "Little sister is finally here, you must be tired. Quickly sit down and drink a cup of tea to relieve your fatigue."

"Miss Chu is too polite." Mo Qingyan responded with a light smile, and avoided her hand with no trace of his. He found a seat and sat down.

A trace of astonishment appeared in Chu Rou's eyes, she turned and looked at Mo Qingyan suspiciously, but seeing that her expression was normal, she could only say that she was overthinking it.

"We met yesterday and were close, so I took the liberty to invite you. I hope you don't blame me." Chu Rou waved his hand, and the servant by his side put down the dim sum and left.

For Chu Rou to lower his body and chat with her was already a great honor in the eyes of the bystanders.

Unfortunately, she was no longer that silly Mo Qingyan, nor would she treat the person in front of her as a sister.

"Miss Chu must be joking. To be able to visit the backyard of the Prime Minister's Residence is a great honor that many people would like to have. How can I blame you?"

Although he said that, Mo Qingyan did not look around to admire the scenery as Chu Rou had imagined.

From the moment she had appeared until now, she had always been unflustered and at ease.

"I had originally wanted to bring little sister to see father, but father didn't return home this morning. I don't know if he was left by His Majesty at the palace to discuss national affairs."

Chu Rou seemed to be a little disappointed. His eyes floated in the direction of the front yard as he secretly observed Mo Qingyan's reaction from the corner of his eyes.

Mo Qingyan nodded, and spoke very respectfully, "The Prime Minister lives in the palace, so we must help His Majesty out, so this Miss Chu can advise the Prime Minister to pay attention to his body. As for the matter of the court, it is not something we little girls should discuss. "

She didn't know what pit Chu Rou had dug for her to jump in.

In any case, in her previous life, ever since she had returned from the Prime Minister's Mansion, rumors had been circulating in the city that the direct daughter of the Minister's Mansion did not understand etiquette, and was even discussing the politics of the imperial court.

Sister-in-law, it was all just a trick to stab someone in the back and put on a show.

"Sister is right, let's not talk about that anymore. It was sister who said the wrong thing just now."

Chu Rou's face changed slightly, she did not expect that Mo Qingyan's words would be watertight, causing her to be unable to find any clues.

Only then would a smart person be able to play a greater role. If he was an idiot, being by Ninth Prince's side would only become a burden for him.

As Chu Rou thought about this, he opened his eyes a little.

"It wasn't easy for little sister to come over. Why don't you stay for lunch?" As long as she was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was not afraid of not catching evidence that she had lost her composure.

The best way to use a person while constantly reminding them of their identity was to use her as a scapegoat.

Furthermore, from the bottom of his heart, Chu Rou did not wish for Mo Qingyan to establish a firm foothold in the Ninth Prince Palace and give himself an additional competitor for free.

"Thank you, Miss Chu, for your good intentions. But before we leave, mother repeatedly reminded Qingyan to return early, and said that the Ninth Prince might come to our residence today."

Mo Qingyan smiled as he declined.

Chu Rou's hand stopped, and his fingertip that was tightly clenched onto the corner of his clothes gained a bit of strength. Ninth Prince is going to the Minister's Mansion today?

Why didn't you tell her beforehand?

Seeing Mo Qingyan's calm expression, even if she had the guts, she wouldn't dare lie about such a thing, right?

Could it be that Ninth Prince already had a grudge against him?

When he thought of this possibility, Chu Rou immediately panicked. She had already placed all of her bets on Long Tianze, and even her own body was given to this man.

At this time, she couldn't care less about letting Mo Qingyan eat, her mind was filled with questions, what should she do!

"Miss Chu doesn't look too good. Is he feeling well?" Mo Qingyan leaned forward and asked with concern.

"I'm fine. Since Ninth Prince is going, then I won't keep my sister for dinner. I'll pay a visit to my sister's home another day."

Chu Rouxin's heart was in chaos, it was not easy to show it in front of everyone.

After the master and servant walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion entrance, the Ah Nuo asked in a low voice, "Miss, when did the Madam say that the Ninth Prince was going to the manor? Why didn't I hear her say anything?"

Mo Qingyan poked her on the forehead, "I guessed."

Hearing this, the Ah Nuo did not understand at first, and only after getting on the carriage did he manage to react, "Young miss probably doesn't want to stay at the Prime Minister's Mansion to eat, right? I think so too, she has something in her Prime Minister's Mansion as well, why would you want to eat her! "

"You're the smart one!" Mo Qingyan laughed. Because of this reason, she had some other reason.

Just now, when he saw Chu Rou's face, he knew that he had achieved his goal.
