Chapter 218: Competing for the position of the prince
He Muzhi and Chu Yuechen were secretly competing in their hearts, and they were a little unconvinced by each other.
However, after such a commotion between these two people, everyone lost their interest in composing poetry.
Wenshuang and Chu Yuan because of the duel, so the two of them agreed to prepare for a few days.
Time always flies quickly, and before you know it, three or four days have passed.
It was a sunny afternoon, and the sisters He Xingyao and He Muzhi were walking in the small garden of the palace, and before they knew it, they had come to the gate of the Clear Palace.
At this time, Mo Cheche happened to be sitting on the stone lion at the door in a daze, and the little palace maid beside her kept shouting for her to come down, but she ignored it.
As the saying goes, stand high and see far, Mo Cheche can be regarded as sitting high and seeing far.
She saw He Xingyao and He Muzhi from afar, and hurriedly waved her hand at them happily.
"Hey, where are you going?"
The He Xingyao sisters heard such a crisp voice for no reason, so they began to look for the source of the sound, but they didn't expect to see Mo Cheche, so the two of them stepped forward.
Mo Cheche got down from the stone lion, then dusted off his clothes again, and then smiled at the two men.
He Xingyao asked, "What are you doing sitting on that stone lion?" β
Mo Cheche said: "Of course, it's for the scenery, otherwise what else can it be for?" β
He Xingyao nodded, not questioning the accuracy of what she said.
But Mo Cheche suddenly looked at her at this time and said, "He Xingyao, the poem you wrote that day is very good, I like it very much." β
As soon as he finished saying this, He Muzhi said unceremoniously: "Miss Che Che, you really have a vision, and I have always thought that my sister's poems are good." β
Although He Muzhi is not modest, and he vigorously defends his sister's affairs, he does not appear to be hypocritical at all, but has true feelings.
Just when a few people were chatting happily, a chamberlain suddenly came over, knelt on the ground, lowered his head and said, "Princess, things have been arranged, just wait for your order, princess." β
As soon as these words fell, Mo Cheche's face suddenly became extremely cold, and the whole person carried a kind of kingly aura that no one could approach.
He Xingyao seemed to notice her change, so he wanted to leave first, but Mo Cheche didn't give her a chance at all, but directly clicked on the acupoints of the two sisters, making them unable to move for a while.
He Xingyao was puzzled, and when he was about to ask, the palace maid beside Mo Cheche suddenly kicked the chamberlain, and said scoldingly: "Bold minion, the princess's friend is too, can you look at it at will?" β
The waiter didn't dare to come out, bursts of cold sweat soaked in his forehead, and his body trembled, but none of his subordinates interceded for him.
After Mo Cheche saw all this, he patted the palace maid's shoulder with a smile and said, "Xiaoya, what's wrong with this person?" β
The palace maid named Xiaoya said: "Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, this person is not honest, I saw him look at your two friends with a very indescribable expression several times, and the parts he looked at were also, also, ......"
"What?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I hope the princess can punish this matter severely, after all, in this world, there are always a lot of potential bad people, and we women need to be extremely vigilant no matter what time it is."
Mo Cheche nodded.
Xiaoya is right, and this kind of thing her good friend Chen Qingqing also experienced three years ago, it is indeed too disgusting, and it is really unbearable.
After thinking of this, Mo Cheche suddenly kicked at the man who was looking at him indiscriminately, and even slapped him in anger, before he spoke: "Be bold, there is no one with inferior character like you around this princess. β
After saying this, Mo Cheche directly waved his hand and said solemnly: "Come on, drive this person with poor character out of the palace." β
As soon as he finished speaking, four guards came and dragged the man away.
The man seemed to be unconvinced, and he was about to be kicked out of the palace, so his expression looked even more hideous.
Naturally, those guards were not vegetarians, so they made the man honest in three or two clicks, but unfortunately the man's mouth still didn't stop, and he even shouted: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Weichen was treated like this just by looking at your friend twice, fair lady, gentleman, is this also wrong?" β
After saying this, the man still looked at Mo Cheche with a revealing and extremely arrogant look, and he didn't even have much respect.
Mo Cheche was fed up with this, but he really didn't want to say anything to such a bad person, so he could only look at the sky without saying a word.
But Xiaoya said indignantly: "You are really unreasonable, you said that you just looked at it twice, but what are you looking at?" Do you know how hideous your expression is? Do you know how hateful you are? You don't know at all, in the face of our princess's friends, it can be seen that your words and deeds must not be very good on weekdays, so you still don't know how to repent, what do you want to do? β
When He Xingyao heard this, he began to notice that the man who was restrained also had a cold sweat on his face.
As soon as she saw the man, she was directly startled, this person's expression was obscene and disgusting, and the impression was extremely bad.
Sure enough, Mo Cheche really didn't want to see such a person at a glance, and said loudly: "Hurry up and pull it out, don't dirty the clear palace of this princess." β
And just like that, in just a few moments, the man had been pulled out.
And He Xingyao looked at Mo Cheche, and his expression changed from the original incomprehension to admiration for a while.
I saw Xiaoya looking at her and said, "Miss He, you don't know how disgusting that person was just now, even the slave and maid couldn't stand it." β
He Xingyao smiled and said, "It's okay, after all, this person is not going to be kicked out of the palace." β
Xiaoya said: "That's what I said. β
At this moment, Xiaoni suddenly walked in, wearing a purple jacket, showing the charm of a woman in her gestures.
As soon as Mo Cheche saw Xiaoni, he walked over in three steps and two steps, and the two hugged each other.
It took a long time for them to separate, and Xiaoni even looked at her and said, "Your Highness, the minister has arranged the matter about the Qingqing girl, she will not be wronged much in the Chen family, but why do you go to such great lengths to do this, princess?" β
Mo Cheche smiled, "Qingqing is my best and best friend in this life, if I can't do something for her, I will be regretful and incompetent in this life." β
After a pause, she continued: "What's more, Xiaoni, who has always known the ambitions and ideals in my heart, although I am a princess, I am a golden and noble person, but all this is not my real choice, what I want to do is to look down on the pride of the world, to overlook the greatness of all beings, and to make mankind happy, do you understand?" β
Xiaoni nodded.
Her princess, for the ideals and ambitions in her heart, never chose to give up, although the emperor was partial to Mochen from the beginning in those big things, but she still worked hard in secret, never decadent and retreated.
Xiaoni and Xiaoya, these palace maids who have always served Mo Cheche, have a very close relationship with Mo Cheche, and they are not like a relationship between superiors and subordinates, nor like a relationship between a master and a slave, but more like good friends and sisters.
He Xingyao suddenly had a very bold idea in his heart at this time, but that idea had only existed in his mind for a short time before he had been vetoed by her.
I don't know why, subconsciously, He Xingyao always has a very strong feeling that Mo Cheche will be a different person from any woman she has seen, or to be more precise, this will be a woman who subverts her previous cognition.
Sure enough, before He Xingyao could think clearly, Mo Cheche suddenly patted her on the shoulder and said, "He Xingyao, I don't know what you think in your heart, but please be kind, what I want to do will not hurt you two sisters in any way." β
After a pause, she continued: "To tell you the truth, this princess has long been tired of the usual life, why should she please her father? Why can Princess Ben be punished by her father if she says a word of congratulations? His standard is his standard, not mine, to tell you, this palace is to compete with the imperial brother for the position of the prince, this world, it is time to change the old look to a new look. β
Mo Cheche's words were so precise that He Xingyao and He Muzhi fell into contemplation for a while.
After a long time, He Xingyao looked at her and said: "Princess, you are right, everyone has their own standards and code of conduct, and they should not ask others at will, but it is just a big thing like competing for the position of prince, why do you say it so calmly?" Aren't you afraid? β
As soon as these words fell, Mo Cheche suddenly looked at her and said with a smile: "You asked this question, do I have to be afraid?" Who says a woman should be timid as a mouse? Who said that a woman cannot inherit the throne? This palace is also the daughter of my father, the emperor's brother, although I am a man, and my father also favors him, but where am I missing? What's more, Brother Huang has always hated Qingqing living with me, but he never knew that Qingqing was the party who witnessed the relationship between me and Brother Qian Feng, although all this was not smooth, she was the only person who was related to me and Brother Qian Feng, and I was good to her, that is, to myself. β
After saying this, He Xingyao's heart fell into confusion for a while, she and her sister have lived since childhood, even if they are happier among their peers, they once had some good close friends in Yuecheng, but unfortunately since those friends got married, everyone rarely met.
She tried to think back to the beginning, only to realize that she had been so naΓ―ve.
Those friends back then, although they have all married one after another, but how many of them are really happy? Most of them are for the right people, looking for what they really like, the concept is different, naturally there is no topic to talk about, in the end, even if it is not so poor family, life is not very satisfactory.
He Xingyao thought of another point of view for a while: as a woman, most people can't have a free choice about getting married like her and her sister, after all, those high-sounding adults are just looking for the right people, but for their own interests, and all this reflects the selfishness and hypocrisy of those people, but in fact, their inner thoughts are so dirty.
What are the consequences of this? It has led to the unhappiness of many women's lives, she looked at the princess in front of her again, Che Che's age is not too young, and she is also at the age when she should get married, but her inner thoughts are better than those friends she knew before, I don't know how many times stronger, maybe these people will be surprised when they meet the princess, right?
He Xingyao thought like this in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.
In this world, there are very few people who can live like Princess Mo Cheche, after all, how many princesses are there? And how many poor girls are there?
She looked at Mo Cheche and couldn't help but speak: "Che Che, I won't judge you arbitrarily for your fight for the position of crown prince, but I still hope that you can truly benefit the world in the future." β
Mo Cheche smiled and looked at her and said: "I will definitely do it, I will also make those who disrespect women and despise women pay the price, even if the father and emperor have already determined that the imperial brother will be the candidate for the position of the prince, but this palace is also powerful, and will not give up easily." β
As soon as she finished saying this, He Muzhi suddenly looked at her and said, "By the way, Your Royal Highness Princess, why do you want to compete for the position of prince?" Isn't it bad to be a princess? β
He Xingyao originally wanted to stop his sister, after all, for this kind of earth-shattering event, it was best not to ask too much, not to mention that the two sisters did not belong to this palace in the first place, and the less they knew, the safer they were.
However, Mo Cheche suddenly looked at her with a smile and said: "There is nothing good or bad, it's just that I didn't really understand until recently that my father's preference for the imperial brother is always greater than my favor, everything in the world, yin and yang are balanced, men and women should also be equal, the imperial brother can become the crown prince and inherit the unification, I should also be able to, since my father is biased to this point, how can I not fight for myself?" β
After a pause, she suddenly looked at He Xingyao and He Muzhi and said, "Do you have any brothers?" β
He Xingyao shook his head and said, "In addition to our parents, there are only two sisters in the family, and there are no other brothers. β
After saying this, Mo Cheche's expression was obviously much more relaxed, and it could be seen that she was very envious of He Xingyao and He Muzhi, after all, in her eyes, the life of these two sisters at home would definitely not be favored by their parents, and she, even if she was a princess, enjoyed countless favors and preferential treatment, but her own life, whether it was treatment or other aspects, was always inferior to her royal brother.
After thinking of this, Mo Cheche suddenly said sincerely: "I really envy you!" β
He Xingyao said: "What do you envy? Envy our ordinary life? β
She originally thought that Mo Cheche would not answer this question, but she didn't expect Mo Cheche to answer it anyway.
"Yes, I just envy the ordinary life of your family, if my father is not partial to me, if my father treats me and my brother equally, I will not move such a mind, but in this palace, it has always been high and low, the balance of yin and yang in the world, men and women, noble and ordinary, these should not also be balanced with each other? Why is it biased? Why is it unbalanced? β
Mo Cheche was almost talking to himself, but who could understand the real reason behind this?
