Volume 1: Yun Family Has a Daughter Chapter 13: Beichen Ye's Scheme

  Bei Chen saw the situation, furrowed his brow, and before he could make a move, he was already standing in front of Mo Mo. Just as he was about to reach out and grab her, the little one suddenly rushed straight into his arms!

  Bei Chen was caught off guard and was pushed back a step by this surge of energy. He instinctively tightened his hold on the girl in his arms.

  Momo was knocked by this collision, her head hit the hard abdomen of Beichen Yao, and her poor nose was hurt, it ached, and tears came out again.

  She really felt unlucky, if she couldn't escape today, her life would probably be lost here, and it would be troublesome for Lao Die and the others. She didn't dare to dwell on this "one-time grudge". With a change of heart, she forced out more tears, lifted her head, and looked at Beichen Yao with tearful eyes, her body trembling, and spoke in a low voice:

  "I really didn't hear anything, even if I did, I wouldn't tell anyone, I don't know who you are and I've never seen you before, just let me go!"

  After finishing speaking, she covered her eyes and sobbed.

  Bei Chen saw her like this, and he felt a little disappointed for no reason. He was annoyed by her crying, thinking that he must have gone crazy to think that this timid girl who cries at the drop of a hat is actually the bold and daring girl!

  Misty peeked through her fingers, pretending to cry while observing Beichen Yao's reaction. Seeing his changing expression, she didn't dare speak again, fearing he would wave his hand and take her life.

  "Who are you?" Beichen Ye seemed to have had enough, his face tense and cold as he asked her. Judging from her attire, she was definitely not some young servant girl from any household. With so many guests arriving today, it was possible that she was a young lady from one of the families.

  Momo lowered her head and thought deeply. If she told the truth, he might spare her in order to win over her father; but if she lied, he would send someone to investigate, and that would make her even more guilty! After thinking it over, Momo could only tell the truth, first and foremost to save her own life!

  "My name is Yun Mo, I am the eldest daughter of the General's Manor!"

  "Yun Mo?" Beichen Yan was slightly surprised, not expecting the girl in front of him to be the same person who had been eavesdropping outside his house last time. But looking at her timid appearance, it really didn't seem like her, could she be pretending? Thinking about how she had just fallen from the tree...

  It was previously investigated that Yunfu had an older sister who was deeply loved by Yunzhan. At the time, I felt quite disappointed. If it was just a young girl, she wouldn't have much use value, and Yunzhan wouldn't give up his position for a daughter.

  But if this girl in front of me is pretending, then it's different...

  He's not a bloodthirsty person, and he never intended to kill anyone. However, if this girl is just pretending, it wouldn't be bad to play along with her for a bit. At the very least, he wants to know whether she's worth his trouble.

  "Go away!"

  "Huh?"

  This time it was Momo's turn to be surprised, she had originally thought that even if Beichen Ye let her off because of his father's relationship, he would still make some excuses, but unexpectedly, he agreed so easily.

  Beichen Ye looked at her ink-black eyes, and suddenly surged with excitement. She stared brightly at him, the previous timidness disappearing without a trace. Silently shaking his head, this girl was too simple-minded, all emotions were written on her face!

  One day soon after, a certain Wang Ye learned the truth and was so angry that he wanted to curse himself as a pig. How could he be so stupid as to think this girl was simple?

  Moist eyes looked at Beichen Ye with an expression of utmost gratitude, her gaze conveying a message: You're really a great person, I'm so thankful to you!

  But in her heart, she snorted disdainfully: People like you who are arrogant and self-important just love to be flattered! You bastard, making me humble myself like this, one day I'll get revenge for today's humiliation.

  Can't help but say, this guy has healed from his wounds and forgotten the pain, he has long since forgotten the fact that he was stripped of his clothes!

  Momo quickly escaped from the dangerous area with a speed that was faster than lightning, and rushed to the front yard to inform her father.

  Bei Chen Ye looked at Mo Mo's departing back, with a hint of conspiracy in his eyes.

  "Your Majesty, just letting her off like this, aren't you afraid she..."

  "It doesn't matter, the good show is about to begin!"

  ……

  The front yard was bustling with excitement at this time, and all the guests had arrived! Even many people who hadn't received an invitation came to wish the old lady a happy birthday.

  Although Yun Zhan was depressed, he couldn't drive them away. What were these people up to? He knew it all too well.

  "General Yun, look! The King of Qi has come in person to wish a happy birthday to the elderly lady. What an honor!"

  A middle-aged man with an eight-character beard said. No need to ask, this person is a member of the "Qing Wang Party".

  "His Excellency is right, I am also deeply grateful! That the King of Qing would look upon me with such importance and humility, I will certainly report to His Majesty, who will surely be delighted by the King's modesty!"

  The sound of the cloud battle was like a loud bell, and it was clear that he was saying this to everyone present, including the one sitting in the main seat, the celebratory king who was high above.

  As soon as this was said, Lord Yu was extremely embarrassed! Who didn't know that the King of Qing attached great importance to etiquette? This matter of respecting scholars was really not related to him!

  The majestic and extraordinary King Qing sat there, neither sitting nor standing, facing the silent ridicule of many people, feeling very embarrassed, secretly scolding Yun Zhan for not knowing good from bad.

  As for this Prince Qing, his status can't be said to be not noble! He is the only son of the previous emperor's widow, and also the current only legitimate child. Logically speaking, the Emperor should have made him the Crown Prince, but until now the Emperor hasn't spoken a word about it!

  This is not it, looking at all the princes who have grown up, but his position as crown prince has yet to be seen, no wonder he's anxious!

  Breathlessly rushing to the front hall, everyone was already seated and ready for the banquet!

  "Dad, come here for a moment, Momo has something important to tell you!"

  Mo walked up to her father's side and whispered to him as he was entertaining his guests.

  Yun Zhan was somewhat perplexed, but seeing his daughter's anxious face, he knew that something important must have happened, and without saying much, he bid farewell to the guests with his daughter and went to a secluded room in the living room where no one was present.

  "Xiao Mei, what's wrong? You look so anxious!"

  Although Father's words were reproachful, he was truly concerned about her. Suppressing the anxiety in his heart, he said: "Father, did King Qing come today?"

  "Here, what's this for?" Yun Zhan asked in confusion.

  "That damned thing has finally arrived!" Momo cursed, and then told Father everything she had heard.

  "What a king?! He really has the nerve! This good-for-nothing scoundrel!" Yun Zhan heard this and was furious, jumping up like thunder, and didn't care about any royal etiquette, cursing loudly!

  "Dad, this isn't the time to be angry, what are we going to do?" Momo asked urgently.

  "Mò ér, are you eavesdropping? Didn't King Yù notice?" Suddenly, Yún Zhàn asked as if he had thought of something.

  "This... this, Mò'er wasn't careful and was discovered by him!" Mò Mò lowered her head in embarrassment.

  Yun Zhan heard this and sat down on a chair with a thud, his face changing several times.

  "Mo Er, don't blame yourself, this has nothing to do with you! It seems that this time, I, as a father, will not be able to keep my integrity intact!" After saying these words, Yun Zhan's entire body exuded a sense of desolation: "Forget it, since he has such ambitions and plans, he should be able to take on great responsibilities and make our country prosperous!"

  Mo Mo heard this and suddenly woke up, saying how could this guy be so compassionate and let her go suddenly? It turned out that he had this intention! In this imperial family, it was indeed a cold-blooded person who would disregard others' wishes and lives for their own benefit.

  "Dad..."

  Digression
