Hibiscus flowers at the end of trees, red buds in the mountains. No one in the stream hut, flowers bloom and fall one after another.

Mo Lishang sat at the window of the lotus garden, frowning as he looked at the rippling green water in the pond and the fish swimming happily under the leaves. His heart grew heavier.

It has been three months. During these three months, she spent the first two months lying in bed all day, waiting for the fracture to heal slowly. It was not until the third month that she was able to move a little. It was not until five days ago that she was finally able to stand up and walk slowly around the house.

But this was only limited to the house, because every time she tried to open the door to go out, Taohongliulv would stand in front of her with a smile, tell her not to be blown by the wind, and then gently help her back into the house.

Yes, Taohong and Liulv were the maids assigned to her by the man who saved her. Both of them looked only twelve or thirteen years old and were very smart. Mo Lisha could see that they both had martial arts skills, and some were not weak in them.

She also had martial arts skills, but she had tried many times and found that her internal energy was like a drop in the ocean, without a trace, as if it had never existed. She tried to use her internal energy to practice again, but she could never bring it together.

Finally she had to give up. If she forced herself to practice the energy, she might go insane.

The only thing she could rely on was poison, but the other party seemed to know her very well and even killed the chance to make poison for her.

Here she was like a weak woman who was powerless and could not even tie a chicken, just waiting helplessly.

only...

Thinking of this, a look of joy and pain flashed across her face.

Mingyue, how is he?

Tears couldn't help but fill her eyes. She really missed him and wondered if he was okay.

After falling from such a high place, he still...

She didn't dare to imagine, she was afraid to seek answers, she was afraid to think too much and feel too much pain!

"Miss, the bird's nest porridge is ready, please have some." Taohong walked in slowly, holding a bowl of bird's nest.

She looked out the window as if she heard nothing, as if she was immersed in the outside world.

Taohong walked behind her and glanced at her worriedly. She found that there was nothing wrong outside the window as usual, so she smiled and said, "Miss, your body has just recovered, you can't be exposed to the wind like this. Let me help you go into the house to rest."

After saying this, he closed the window on his own initiative, cutting off Mo Lishang from the scenery outside the window.

Mo Lishang smiled faintly. Although Taohong called her Miss, she was actually just a prisoner. She knew that the person who saved her definitely had bad intentions. He saved her just to use her. The only thing that could be used on her was her identity as the Crown Princess of Xiqin. She was just a bargaining chip to threaten Mingyue!

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt happy. Since she still had value, did it mean that Mingyue was not dead? Mingyue was the only one in the world who cared about her.

With this realization, she was so excited that she stood up suddenly.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" There was an unknown light in Taohong's eyes, hiding her scrutiny.

Shaking her head, she strolled towards the inner hall.

His eyes dropped slightly, hiding the joy in his heart.

"Miss, drink this porridge while it's hot." Taohong handed the bird's nest porridge to Mo Lishang.

Mo Lishang held the bowl in one slender hand and the spoon in the other, sipping the food slowly, her lotus-like lips slightly opening and then gradually closing. Her eating manner was extremely elegant and even charming.

A hint of jealousy flashed in Taohong's eyes, and an almost invisible haze passed across that bright little face.

Finally, she finished the small bowl of porridge. She held a snow silk scarf with her orchid fingers and tucked the corners of her lips elegantly. The snow was pressed without leaving any trace, but her delicate face was reflected.

Taohua concealed the emotions in her eyes, put away the bowl and was about to leave.

"Please tell your master that I want to thank him in person for saving my life."

"The master is very busy and may not have time to see the young lady." Taohong replied with a hint of coldness and walked out of the house without stopping.

Mo Lishang's indifferent and distant voice came from behind: "I wanted to thank you in person for saving my life, but if your master is really busy, I would like to take my leave first and come back with a valuable gift to thank you in a few days."

"I can't make the decision on this matter." Taohong said this and left in a hurry.

Mo Lishang looked at her back and smiled indifferently.

The mysterious man who saved her has been ignoring her for three months. It's time for them to meet. I believe that what she says will soon reach the ears of her master.

She waited to see who this man was.

But she was wrong. Since the last time, the mysterious man still hadn't appeared.

This made her feel unpredictable, and Taohong's face became worse and worse, as if she owed Taohong several thousand taels of silver.

Until one day she finished drinking bird's nest porridge and fell asleep...

"Taohong, be careful if the master finds out about your attitude towards Miss Mo. You will be in big trouble." This was Liulu's voice.

"I just can't understand, what's so good about this Miss Mo? Isn't she just pretty? But she's not as pretty as Madam Yu in our mansion, not as charming as Madam Xiao, not as well-behaved as Madam He, and not as charming as Madam Qin. Why did the master leave all these beautiful women alone and insist on marrying her? She's pregnant with another man's child."

"Shut up, Taohong, are you crazy? How can you guess what the master is thinking? How can you make rash judgments? Don't you want to live anymore?"

Liu Lu's voice suddenly became sharp, leaving Tao Hong speechless.

It also made Mo Lishang fall into extreme shock.

She had tasted all kinds of poisons since she was a child, and this bird's nest porridge contained calming herbs, which were good for her body, so she had been drinking it silently. However, her body had gradually gotten better in the past few days, and she wanted to pretend to drink the bird's nest porridge, and then go out of the house to see whose house this was and what its layout was like when everyone was not paying attention.

Unexpectedly, she heard such shocking news.

Their master wants to marry her!

This is really a joke! Now the only thing she knows about their master is that their master is a man, and she doesn't know anything else. Why would their master want to marry her? What is his intention?

Could it be Tong Yeming?

No, that’s not the case. If it was Tong Yeming, he wouldn’t have gone without seeing her for so long!

So who is this man?

She thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, and she didn't even know where this place was.

The nights in early summer are cool, as cool as water. The bright moon seems to sprinkle a thin layer of mist on the ground, making it impossible to see the reality in the distance.

The shadows of the trees swayed, and black shadows stretched out from the branches, like devil's claws, as if ready to devour people at any time.

Mo Lishang sat in front of the window for a long time, looking at the bright moon in the sky. She sat alone under the window, her eyes deep and distant, making people unpredictable.

"Miss, please eat something. You haven't eaten all day." Lvliu came to her side with food for the Nth time today.

She remained indifferent and unconcerned, as if she were in a daze.

"Miss, if you don't eat, the baby in your belly will starve."

Her body suddenly stiffened, and she even forgot about the baby in her belly. In order to meet that mysterious man, she hadn't eaten for a day.

As if sensing Mo Lishang's touch and hesitation, Lvliu smiled and brought the food to her side, and advised: "Miss, you should at least eat something, otherwise the child will be born weak without nutrition."

Pretending to be strong again, she stroked her belly gently and said to the child: I'm sorry, baby, please bear with it for a while, mother must see that man, otherwise we may never see your father again.

There seemed to be slight movement in her lower abdomen, as if it was talking to her.

A faint smile appeared on her lips, and the tenderness in her eyes grew stronger.

Lvliu stared at Mo Lishang blankly, shocked in her heart. She didn't know why Mo Lishang would suddenly become gentle. The brilliance in his smile was as wild as a mountain flower. It was a contradictory combination of nobility, elegance, enchantment and purity. His whole body seemed to be filled with a holy luster, dazzling people.

No wonder the master chose her as his wife among so many beautiful women. She really has the ability to make people's hearts beat faster and make them fall in love with her.

Especially now, that touch of tenderness has disintegrated her past indifference and coldness, just like the first spring breeze blowing away the cold of winter, instantly warming the people around her and brightening the hearts of others.

"Miss, you are so beautiful..." Lu Liu couldn't help but blurt out.

Her face was instantly covered with frost, and her eyes were like a thin layer of ice. Her smile and tenderness were only shown for Jimo Li!

Lvliu was a little at a loss, not knowing what she had said wrong. After looking at Mo Lishang, she advised: "Miss, please eat something."

Mo Lishang frowned slightly: "When will your master be free to see me?"

"The master will see you when he is free. You should rest and take care of your baby first. You fell from such a high cliff, and several ribs were broken. Your internal organs were seriously injured. If the master had not invited famous doctors to use all kinds of precious herbs, your life would not have been saved. The fetus in your belly is even more tenacious. Even so, he is still firmly in your body. If you don't care about anything else, you should eat something for the baby in your belly."

Lvliu was undoubtedly very good at talking, and she hit the softest spot in Mo Lishang's heart. However, she knew that she couldn't be soft-hearted, so she hardened her heart and said coldly: "Do you think that if I live in a muddle-headed way like this, the child will grow up healthy in your belly? Now I am isolated from the world, and the father of the child is still alive and dead. What is the difference between me being alive and being dead?"

"Miss..." Luliu hesitated to speak and wanted to persuade her again, but when she saw Mo Lishang's cold eyes and thought of her master's order, she sighed, bowed and turned to leave.

Her lips curled up slightly, she knew that the mysterious man would definitely come tonight. He had gone to so much trouble to save her, he would not let her lose her value just like that.

"You want to see the lonely king?"

The door was gently pushed open, and a cool breeze blew in. Mo Lishang raised his eyes and saw a pair of golden boots. The boots were woven with the finest brocade, and were embroidered with several five-clawed golden dragons, which were circling and swimming on the boots, looking agile and majestic. Just this pair of shoes gave people an incomparable sense of majesty and pressure.

The owner of the shoes strode in with big strides. From the boots up, he could see the shining dragon robe. The man stood several feet tall and straight like a pine tree.

Mo Lishang concealed the surprise in his eyes and finally fixed his eyes on his face.

His angular face seems humble but hides a fierceness. His eyes are as clear as an ice spring, as bright as cold stars, and as deep as a secluded pool. At first glance, he seems so gentle and elegant, but if you pay attention, you can see the sharpness and fierceness hidden in his eyes. Just like a knife hidden in a scabbard, hidden deep, but ready to be unsheathed to hurt the enemy at any time.

There was a faint smile on her lips, a smile as warm as a spring breeze but without any warmth, because the smile only stayed on the surface but did not reach her eyes at all.

"Dong Wang, thank you for saving my life."

While Mo Lisha was looking at him, he was also exploring Mo Lisha. His star-like eyes stared at Mo Lisha without blinking, until Mo Lisha smiled and saluted him.

"Haha, it's just a small favor, nothing to worry about." The sharpness in his eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by a hearty smile, as if he was such a humble person.

"It's just a small favor from the East King, but it's a huge favor to me. I will thank the East King profusely after I return to West Qin."

"Speaking of thanks, how are you going to thank me, my king?"
