Chapter 447 The Jade From the Late Great Ancestor Is Given to Shen Ningning
At the critical moment.
The Shu King's secret guards finally made a move. When they were about to rescue the Shu King, Mo Lingwei's cold eyes flashed with a murderous light.
He suddenly swung the whip.
The two secret guards were the first to use their left hands to resist the whip rope.
Mo Lingwei's pupils narrowed suddenly.
Screams came from all around. When everyone thought that the Shu King was going to die under the horse's hooves, the horse under Mo Lingwei's seat actually stopped.
It smashed three tables and chairs.
The Shu King fell to the ground, gasping for breath, looking at the horse's hooves with a pale face, and cold sweat on his forehead.
The young man sitting high on the horse's back raised his dark and cold eyebrows slightly.
"I'm sorry, uncle, this horse is unfamiliar to me and I haven't trained it yet. Are you okay?"
The Shu King's wife had already rushed over as soon as possible, pushed through the crowd, and helped the Shu King up.
The Shu King's legs were weak, but in front of everyone, he waved his hands to pretend to be calm.
"I'm fine. This activity is too dangerous. Lingwei, why don't you pay more attention?"
The Shu Princess' eyes were red, and she worriedly complained: "It's all your fault. You insisted on having a horse race. Our martial arts training ground is small. This is not Lingwei's fault."
For this nephew, the Shu Princess was more protective of him than the Shu King.
Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
The Ninth Prince, who won the game in the chaos, came at this time and showed great concern for the Shu King.
"Is my uncle okay?"
"He won't die," Mo Lingwei said coldly, throwing the jade to the Ninth Prince: "It's yours."
However, the Ninth Prince didn't catch it!
The moment he stretched out his hand, the blood jade fell to the ground and broke with a "snap".
Mo Lingwei stared: "Tsk, so useless?"
The Ninth Prince looked at the blood jade bracelet that was broken into several pieces: "This, this... Your Highness, you threw it without any warning, of course I can't catch it."
According to the Shu King's personality, he should say something to help the Ninth Prince at this time.
However, he was frightened by Mo Lingwei just now.
He has not recovered yet.
Mo Lingwei, this stinky boy, almost trampled him to death with his horse's hoof!
He was just asked to hand over the jade, but he was so angry.
Shen Ningning ran over: "Brother, ah, this jade..."
The little girl's dark eyes showed regret.
If it is broken, the fairyland will definitely not eat it.
"It doesn't matter, I will find you a better one."
Mo Lingwei threw the reins to the stable boy.
Then he looked at the Shu Princess: "Aunt, my gift for you has been given to the housekeeper. I am not interested today, so I will leave first."
Then he grabbed Shen Ningning's hand and dragged her away.
After they left, the Shu King was also frightened, and the guests naturally dispersed quickly.
The Ninth Prince stayed until the end.
When only Princess Shu and Mo Zhirou were left around, he sighed, "Uncle, I'm here to apologize to you on behalf of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The horse frightened you just now."
Mo Zhirou followed, "It was originally a happy thing, but it scared my father a lot. My mother's birthday party will also leave regrets."
The face of the King of Shu turned gloomy.
Before he could speak, Princess Shu frowned, "Don't say that. Ling Wei didn't know that the horse would be frightened in advance."
"Fortunately, he is fine, otherwise he fell off the horse, what would happen? As long as he is safe, my birthday party will have no regrets."
Hearing what Princess Shu said, she leaned towards Mo Lingwei, and the other three pursed their lips with different thoughts.
After sending the Ninth Prince away, Mo Zhirou also returned to the courtyard.
The King of Shu sat on the chair coldly, and didn't talk to Princess Shu.
"My Lord, are you angry?" She was a little surprised.
The King of Shu said in a deep voice: "Are you too indulgent to Ling Wei? You didn't see clearly what happened today, but I saw clearly that he manipulated the horse to retaliate against me."
"He was so angry just to snatch the jade for Princess Funing. If he ascends the throne in the future, will he kill all the people if he is unhappy? How can he be a qualified emperor!"
The Princess of Shu sat down and frowned: "Is what the prince said too serious? I think Ling Wei is a very good child, just with a bad temper and a strong personality."
"Besides, I think the prince will pay more attention to the Ninth Prince after returning to Beijing this time. Otherwise, why did you agree to give the jade to Ling Wei? What kind of competition are you going to hold to let the Ninth Prince compete for it?"
Speaking of this, the Princess of Shu became more suspicious.
The King of Shu is the emperor's brother, so of course he is closer to the legitimate son born to the queen.
Why does she feel that her husband has to praise the Ninth Prince for his high character and decent knowledge from time to time?
Mo Lingwei was a little irritable, but this child did everything properly, and he was not stupid in government affairs.
Facing the doubtful look of the Shu Princess, the Shu King quickly suppressed his emotions.
He sighed slowly and pretended to be sad.
"Madam, you are really a woman with too little thought. Lingwei is the crown prince and will ascend the throne as emperor in the future."
"I did this today just to test him. If he can't even tolerate such a small thing, how can he be a good emperor in the future."
The Shu Princess laughed: "You test him? The emperor is here, why do you worry about this."
The Shu King's tone was choked, and his heart was once again full of dissatisfaction with the Shu Princess.
His wife is like this, never following his wishes, always having different opinions.
Unlike the one in the palace, who is his lifelong confidant.
The next day.
Mo Lingwei took the initiative to go to the emperor's study and talked about what happened at the Shu Princess' birthday banquet.
The emperor slapped the table, a little annoyed: "You dare to mention it, your uncle is almost scared to death by you, the doctor I sent to diagnose him came back and said that he had palpitations, you, you, why are you always so angry?"
Mo Lingwei's eyebrows were dark and calm, and he was even a little impatient with the emperor's questioning.
"I've said it, it was Ma who lost control, he really had palpitations, shall I send a few more people to check it out?"
The emperor waved his hand: "Don't go, wait until he recovers, and change your bad temper as soon as possible."
Mo Lingwei sneered: "I'm probably like you."
The emperor glared: "You!"
Originally wanted to scold this stinky boy for being disrespectful, but the emperor thought about it and realized that when he was young, he had a bad temper.
So, he said a little embarrassedly: "Don't worry, your uncle is fine, you don't have to come here specifically for him."
Mo Lingwei raised his dark eyebrows: "I'm not here for him."
The emperor paused in taking the memorial: "Not for him? Then what is it for?"
"Father, I remember that when the first great ancestor made the jade seal, he used a piece of purple unpolished jade. Later, when the jade seal was carved, there was an extra small piece, which was made into a jade bell, right?"
The emperor hesitated for a moment: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Mo Lingwei pursed his lips, smiling without showing arrogance, his thin eyes were dark, and he was determined to get it.
"I want that piece of jade."
The emperor was shocked.
"Nonsense! How can I just give it to you? That's the rare jade found by my great grandfather!"
Mo Lingwei's dark eyes were calm: "Anyway, these things will be mine in the future, but I just withdrew them in advance."
The emperor's face was livid: "No, absolutely not. Although I indulge you, I don't let you do whatever you want. This is the jade left by our ancestors!"
"I want to give it to someone."
"You can't give it to anyone. Your uncle wanted to give it to your aunt, but I didn't agree."
"I want to give it to Shen Ningning."
As soon as Mo Lingwei finished speaking, the emperor's frowning expression suddenly froze.
Soon, the emperor reacted and raised his head: "Give it to Ningning?"
Mo Lingwei nodded: "She has always liked jade."
The emperor pressed his eyebrows: "Why didn't you say it earlier? It's okay to give it to her. After all, this child is much more reliable than you."
Seeing that the emperor agreed so quickly, Mo Lingwei couldn't help but complain in his heart.
However, the emperor suddenly changed his mind: "You can give it to her, but you have to agree to one request of mine."
Seeing the smile on the emperor's eyes and eyebrows, Mo Lingwei felt that there was a trap.
"What request?" The young man frowned suspiciously. (End of this chapter)
