Chapter 1381 - 1388 Empress of Qing Luo Kingdom Arrives (5)
But upon second thought, she was not the type of woman to covet vanity, and would certainly not have any intentions towards him simply because he was His Highness, The Prince.
However, he... it was hard to say.
Both being men, he could see that Situ Changge had feelings for her. His love for her was clear and evident; otherwise, he wouldn’t have opposed Duke Li Guo Mansion for her sake when he was still a humble little shopkeeper. Even if he liked her then, it was impossible, but now things were different. If he were to propose to her, perhaps the Marquis of Jian’an would happily marry his daughter off to him!
His heart thudded several times, and he could no longer sit still. He threw down the book, stood up, and strode out of the study room.
"Hey, Young Master, where are you going?" Cheng Cai chased after him, following closely behind.
"Go order the stables to prepare a horse!" Mo Zili commanded with a frown, but did not disclose his destination.
Cheng Cai shrank his neck, inwardly regretting his prying; the Young Master was obsessed over the Young Madam. If he were to storm into the palace now and confront Situ Changge—no, the Prince of Qing Luo Kingdom—for a robbery, being a relative of the Emperor, it would hardly matter to him, but as his attendant, he would likely become the scapegoat...
Thankfully, after mounting the horse, the Young Master did not head towards the palace but instead rode straight to the Marquis of Jian’an Mansion.
Upon arriving at the mansion, he leapt off the horse, threw the reins to Cheng Cai, and went to knock on the door himself. The head gatekeeper warehouse opened the door, but before he could speak, was pushed aside by Mo Zili.
Mo Zili stormed in, ignoring the housekeepers who tried to stop him. Knowing his respected identity as the legitimate grandson from Duke Li Guo Mansion, the household servants dared not get rough with him nor let him in, so they could only block his way and plead bitterly...
With such a commotion outside, the servants didn’t dare to decide on their own, and someone had hastened to the second doorway to have the housemaid inform inside.
