My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! Chapter 985 - Still Hankering After It

Chapter 985: Still Hankering After It

The youth’s raven hair was hidden underneath his small jade coronet. He wore a light-colored, narrow-sleeved equestrian suit, paired with a wide, purplish-gold belt. Even though his body was still growing, he was handsome and had good posture.
A faint smile was on his lips as he trotted inside, and it seemed as if star fragments were twirling within his eyes, making them sparkling and dazzling beyond compare.
“Greetings to the twelfth prince.” The row of junior royal maids simultaneously made their salutations.
After waving his hand, Mo Yu flashed to Mo Lian’s side and excitedly called, “Eldest Brother, the moment I entered the capital, I heard that you got engaged to a crown prince consort! I want to see my sister-in-law. I knew it was her! Now I can finally have my peach…”
There definitely wasn’t anyone else like this brat, who was still hankering after a peach seven to eight years later.
Mo Lian twitched his mouth, yet before he could say anything, Queen Zhao reprimanded with a stern face, “Yu’er, you have been misbehaving more and more recently. Not to mention your lack of manners and how you’ve been running around all over the palace, this time you even went to disturb your grandmother’s peace at the mountain villa.”
Mo Yu hastily pressed close to his mother. “Mother, Grandmother has been praising me during this entire way back. If I didn’t run off to the mountain villa to accompany Grandmother, how bored would Grandmother have been celebrating this new year?”
Queen Zhao cast him a glance before poking his head with a harrumph. “Don’t tell me that it wasn’t that Grandmother found you too noisy, which was why she brought you back in advance?”
“Of course not.” It was as if Mo Yu’s mouth had been smeared with honey, and he said with a grin, “It was that this son missed Father, Mother, and Eldest Brother, hence entreating Grandmother to return. Royal Mother, Royal Father, Eldest Brother, Yu’er has been missing you all the entire time even while outside the capital.”
Even so, his father chuckled ironically, evidently not believing his youngest son’s pack of lies.
On the contrary, Queen Zhao was coaxed into merriment even though she still maintained her stern face. Nevertheless, as she swept her youngest son a glance, the corner of her mouth involuntarily curled up.
AFterwards, the old queen dowager remarked with a smile, “You don’t say, if it weren’t for Yu’er coming to accompany me at the mountain villa, this new year would’ve indeed been lacking some festive ambience.”
Queen Zhao commented while smiling, “Observing from your rosy and healthy complexion, Royal Mother must have rested extremely well at Ziyu Mountain Villa.”
“Correct.” The queen dowager smiled benevolently as she praised with a nod, “Ziyu Mountain Villa is quiet and secluded, and the mystic energy is rather dense there, truly making it the best location for cultivation. Should the opportunity arise, the king and the queen could pick a day to make this trip. Treat it as a way to drive away your cares and to recharge for a period of time.”
“Your Majesty is absolutely right.”
The old king peered at his mother cautiously before inquiring anxiously, “Has Royal Mother’s cultivation progressed?”
“It could be considered a small accomplishment.” Back in the day, the queen dowager had fought together on a horse with a spear alongside the former king and the old Vassal King of An’nan to conquer the kingdom. Hence, her kung fu was naturally outstanding.
She had been stuck at the level-14 great mystic cultivator initial success realm for nearly 10 years.
After heading to Ziyu Mountain Villa and quietly cultivating there for half a year, the queen dowager finally progressed one small step forward, entering the level-14 mystic cultivator phenomenal success realm.
Upon hearing this, the king’s face lit up with delight. “Congratulations to Royal Mother for having progressed in your cultivation.”
“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”
People with cultivation at the queen dowager’s level had long been indifferent to this, so she only waved her hand with a smile. “Let’s not talk about this anymore.”
She turned to look at Mo Lian. “Today, upon entering the capital, We and Yu’er heard rumors flying about. Pacification Pagoda is our Mo Kingdom’s state protection pagoda. What do they mean by a witch has come into the world, so disaster will befall from heaven? And they even said that Pacification Pagoda has an unstable foundation and seems to have swayed? What kind of ridiculous gossip is this. It’s simply a load of hogwash.”
