The bad state of disrepair in the room was beyond Mo Xiangrui’s imagination.
A crude table was in the middle of the room with one broken leg.
The table with three legs was in imminent danger of falling down.
There was a big bed with a width of less than one meter and a half in a corner, and a woman at her last gasp was lying in it.
The woman was covered with a dirty and heavy cotton quilt, showing only her small face.
She didn’t wear make-up on her face, yet she looked weak and more charming because of her illness.
However, the woman covered her lips and coughed seriously. Her face twisted in pain.
It didn’t look ugly but showed weird beauty.
Mo Xiangrui recognized her at first glance and rushed to the bed at once, shouting emotionally, “Ruyue.”
The woman called Ruyue seemed to have finally found that there was an uninvited guest in the room. She suddenly raised her head to have a look.
When she saw Mo Xiangrui clearly, her pupils widened in disbelief all of a sudden.
Next second, beyond expectation, she suddenly lifted the quilt and covered herself in it, hiding herself. It seemed that in this way, nobody could find her.
However, her illness didn’t understand the owner’s hard effort, and she still coughed in a muffled voice in the quilt uncontrollably.
In this shabby room with air leaks, it was weird.
Mo Xiangrui was confused by the woman’s subconscious action, but soon he understood why she behaved like an ostrich.
As expected, Qi Zhengdao hurriedly rushed to the bed and started to pull the woman’s quilt, saying endlessly, “Mother, your illness can be cured. Look, who did I bring? Come out now.”
The woman still covered herself with the quilt and remained unmoved. She said in a deep and muffled voice, “I don’t want to see him. Tell him to go. I won’t see him.”
It was Qi Zhengdao’s first time to see that his mother shouted regardless of her manners, so he was stunned.
Looking at the arched quilt and then at Mo Xiangrui, he couldn’t understand why his mother refused to see his father when he came even though she missed him every day and night.
Qi Zhengdao couldn’t figure it out, while he was more worried about his mother’s health, so he advised anxiously, “Mother, just come out. If you are not treated, it will be too late. I beg you, okay?”
The woman in the quilt stopped moving and refused in silence.
Qi Zhengdao didn’t know what to do, while Xiang Xiangrui strode over and pulled the boy aside, standing next to the bed.
He stared at the arched quilt and pursed his lips, feeling that his voice was hoarse. “Ru…yue.”
The woman in the quilt seemed to be frightened and trembled violently, but she just hid in it and refused to go out or make sounds.
Mo Xiangrui was anxious and personally pulled the dirty quilt that he would never touch at ordinary times, shouting continuously, “Ruyue, I know that it’s you. Come out now. Let me see you. I want to see you.”
Nobody knew if the last words “I want to see you” worked, and the quilt which covered her tightly could be lifted.
Mo Xiangrui got joyful and pulled the dirty quilt, looking at her. The woman was ghastly pale and sank into a coma unexpectedly.
“Mother, Mother, what’s wrong with you? Don’t leave me.” Qi Zhengdao turned pale with fear and rushed to hug the woman.
Qi Zhengdao looked terrified and shook the woman’s body repeatedly, trying to wake her up, with his tears falling without a stop.
In the beginning, Mo Xiangrui was scared out of wits and stared at the woman in the bed, remaining still.
Mo Junyang next to him reminded in time, “She must be just in a coma.”
Mo Xiangrui finally reacted and pulled the quilt away. He didn’t feel disgusted with the dirty quilt but carried the woman, ordering the people outside in a loud voice, “Somebody, go to the imperial palace and ask a royal doctor to come. Tell Doctor Shen to wait in the mansion.”
After he ordered, the guards waiting in the room didn’t reply after a long while but looked at Mo Junyang hesitantly.
In fact, the first order was fine, and it was not difficult to find a royal doctor in the imperial palace, as the king’s mansion had this right, while the second order…
The miracle-working doctor Shen Luo stayed in King Rui’s mansion in name, yet anybody knew that he worked for Mo Junyang.
It was no problem if King Rui needed to be treated, but he directly ordered Shen Luo to treat a woman who might become Mo Junyang’s step-mother in the future without asking him. Didn’t he embarrass Mo Junyang in public?
The relationship between the father and son was in imminent danger.
After Mo Xiangrui said that, he realized this point and turned pale immediately.
He looked at Mo Junyang in embarrassment, yet when he met the young man’s eyes, he looked away with guilt.
“Junyang, I…”
King Rui had a guilty conscience and wanted to explain, but he didn’t know what to say. He stuttered and couldn’t find a presentable reason.
Mo Junyang kept his composure and ordered, “Why don’t you do as His Highness ordered?”
He pondered for a moment and then stated, “That woman looks weak and probably needs to stay in the mansion for a period before she recovers. Go back and tell the servants to clean up the Qingshui House to settle them.”
He made arrangements properly and received them with etiquette, just in Mo Xiangrui’s shoes, and he even arranged what his father didn’t have time to consider.
Mo Xiangrui felt more guilty and praised Mo Junyang for his magnanimity, just shouting emotionally, “Good son.”
The guards couldn’t help but praise in secret that the young master was broad-minded. Then they quickly left to do their jobs.
After Mo Xiangrui put the woman in the carriage, he stiffened and pulled Mo Junyang’s arm. He wanted to say something seemingly yet couldn’t speak a word.
Mo Junyang patiently stood with Mo Xiangrui outside the carriage.
After a while, he looked up at the sky and reminded gently, “Father, it’s getting dark now. If we waste time, perhaps the woman will get more seriously ill. Let’s go back to the mansion as soon as possible.”
His voice was calm and gentle without displeasure.
Noticing that Mo Xiangrui cared about his mother so much, Qi Zhengdao felt happy secretly and restless.
He knew that he was an illegitimate son and couldn’t win the legitimate son’s respect, and he might be inferior to a favored servant in the mansion. If Mo Junyang didn’t like him for something, he could make Qi Zhengdao unable to stay in the capital city or even in the whole country.
However, he really had nowhere to go, so he could do nothing but ask for help, hoping that King Rui’s heir could be magnanimous and give him a chance of survival.
Mo Junyang didn’t feel resentful, which was what Qi Zhengdao wanted. Qi Zhengdao didn’t care about anything more but anxiously begged, “Father, please save Mother as soon as possible.”
Hearing Qi Zhengdao’s request, Mo Xiangrui had to restrain himself even though he wanted to say a lot. He just carried the woman to the carriage and rushed to the mansion.
Shi Qingxue watched everything and saw that Mo Xiangrui cared about the woman, so she was surprised and asked in a low voice, “Who is that woman? Why does His Highness take her so seriously?”
He even pushed Mo Junyang aside?
Fine. Even though Mo Junyang agreed that it was more important to save a person’s life, so what?
Mo Junyang expressed his attitude, yet what Mo Xiangrui should do was another matter.
Even though people should be flexible when it was emergent, Mo Xiangrui embarrassed Mo Junyang after doing that.
Mo Junyang still didn’t care. He shrugged and replied slowly, “This woman is like King Rui’s wife who died of a disease.”
“Huh?” Shi Qingxue was stunned for a while and then reacted, while the expression on her face became more confused.
King Rui’s wife Qi Yue was a princess of the previous dynasty, the Qi Dynasty.
When the Qi Dynasty was destroyed and replaced with the Mo Dynasty, Qi Yue was just an infant. However, because she was so young, the late emperor didn’t make things difficult for her but titled her as infanta and raised her in the imperial palace with the princes and princesses.
The late emperor saw that Qi Yue and Mo Xiangrui loved each other after they grew up, so he granted their marriage.
It was said that Infanta Qi Yue was a famous beauty in the capital city since she was unmarried, yet this beautiful woman suffered a harsh life and died of an illness soon after she gave birth to Mo Junyang.
Shi Qingxue had never seen Qi Yue, but she always wondered involuntarily whether Mo Junyang would live a better life if King Rui’s wife lived for longer.
She thought about what Mo Junyang had said and finally figured out what was wrong. Then she couldn’t help asking in surprise, “She was your mother. Why did you call her King Rui’s wife?”
It was such a distant form of address, and it seemed that they were not mother and son.
“Nothing. I am used to it.” Mo Junyang avoided Qingxue’s eyes and tried to say it casually.
However, Shi Qingxue immediately noticed his sad feeling. She couldn’t help but move closer to Mo Junyang and grab his hand, saying apologetically, “I am sorry. I shouldn’t have asked that.”
Mo Junyang shook his head and didn’t care. He continued to explain, “Father is carefree all the time, while he can’t forget his wife but misses her all the time. Although he has several concubines in the mansion, they are only his playthings and unpresentable, and he never cares about them, yet this one…hmm…”
He thought that Mo Xiangrui called the woman Ruyue, and the teenage boy’s family name was Qi, so he understood at once.
He sneered. “Qi Ruyue, a nice name. It seems to be a compensation for Father prepared by God.”
Hearing that, Shi Qingxue understood the hidden meaning.
She couldn’t help frowning. “Qi Zhengdao…”
He came in person, and anybody would suspect those people’s motives.
For example, Qi Ruyue might be true, while this son who showed up all of a sudden…
Mo Junyang shook his head and said indifferently, “I am not sure yet. They know that Shen Luo is in my mansion but dare to come and claim to be related to my father openly, so it must be true.”
Moreover, Qi Zhengdao looked like Mo Xiangrui a lot. When he grew up, he would probably be more like Mo Xiangrui than Mo Junyang.
“But the two people have an impure purpose. If you let them stay in your mansion, I am afraid that it’s easy to invite them yet it will be difficult to ask them to leave in the future.” Shi Qingxue couldn’t help getting worried.
Although there were endless fights in wealthy and powerful families, there was only one young master, the heir in King Rui’s mansion in the past. Even if there were fights, it wouldn’t have anything to do with Mo Junyang or shake his position.
These two would surely want something once they entered the mansion.
Nevertheless, nobody knew how much they wanted.
Would they return to the ancestors and just want to have a position in the mansion? Or would they try to fight for the title of King Rui’s heir?
