Chapter 1072: Chapter 1070: Charge Bravely for Love!

She took one look and was smitten, tugging on Zhuo Junli’s sleeve and asking, “Uncle, take a quick look! Who is that? Is he a palace guard? Or perhaps a court official?”

Zhuo Junli raised an eyebrow, “He is the emperor’s trusted commander, known as Mo Qi.”

“Mo Qi… such a simple name, yet he must be incredibly skilled! Has he been promised in marriage yet?”

Leng Muling could no longer fully hide her interest.

The moment she saw Mo Qi, her heart fluttered, and learning that he was Chu Yihan’s trusted aide, such an impressive person, only increased her attraction.

“With you acting like this, it’s a good thing father isn’t here,” Zhuo Junli said, arms crossed, leisurely watching Leng Muling.

Leng Muling fumbled in a panic, hastily pulling down the carriage curtain to sit properly, her cheeks flushing, “I’ve been impertinent, please don’t tell grandpa.”

Otherwise, she was in for a whipping!

Zhuo Junli let out a soft chuckle, “Just teasing you! A fair lady, a gentleman’s good quest, if gentlemen can be fair, why can’t you seek out the one you admire? As far as I know, Mo Qi is not yet promised to anyone, and my niece, a legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s residence, will certainly not disgrace him.”

But Zhuo Junli felt that it wasn’t interesting for Chu Yihan to arrange the marriage; it would be better for Leng Muling to make the acquaintance on her own.

He left Leng Muling by the carriage, sending her to find Chu Yihan and get the memorial he had submitted that day.

Leng Muling leaned on the window frame, “Hey, Uncle, can I… can I really enter the imperial study? Moreover, Commander Mo doesn’t even know me! Is it really okay for me to approach him so abruptly?”

“If you feel it’s inappropriate, then first pay a visit to the empress and express your intentions. The empress is a wise woman; she’ll help you!”

Zhuo Junli had already pointed Leng Muling in the right direction.

He knew that his younger niece was far more daring and fearless than the older one, so he let her go without worry.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

As for Leng Shuqing, on her way to the Prime Minister’s residence, he needed to provide her with some guidance.

Inside the carriage, with only Zhuo Junli and Leng Shuqing present, Zhuo Junli was carefully considering his words when Leng Shuqing spoke up, “Uncle, are you trying to persuade me to forget the emperor and seek a more suitable husband?”

Zhuo Junli was caught off guard for a moment, then said, “Yes, although I did not witness the love between the emperor and the empress, I understand the emperor’s nature — he is devoted and deeply affectionate, and in this life, he will love only one person.”

“But what if I don’t want deep affection, just a small portion of his love?”

Stubbornness, determination, and a hint of fire beneath the ice were hidden in Leng Shuqing’s eyes.

She had always been the admired noblewoman of Jiang Du City, prim and proper, with grace in abundance, and no shortage of men who adored her.

Yet her heart stirred for only one man upon the Golden Throne Hall.

Zhuo Junli mercilessly shattered her illusion, “You can’t get even a little bit; if a heart is scattered, you might be able to grapple with some fragments to console yourself, like the late emperor, but if a heart is whole and given to one person, no matter how hard you try for the rest of your life, you will never receive even a fraction of his love.”

He walked love’s lonely path, a solitary boat, a single log, which is why he didn’t want Leng Shuqing to suffer the pains of love.

Leng Shuqing’s head hung low, half her face buried in shadow, her expression unreadable.

She was good at concealing her thoughts, so Zhuo Junli couldn’t tell whether his words had gotten through to her.

But if she insisted on entering the palace, he, as her Prime Minister uncle, would certainly stop her.

Inside the imperial palace, Leng Muling was trepidatiously excited; it was the first time she had fallen for a man at first sight, and now Zhuo Junli had dispatched her to pursue him.

The situation was absurd; when her grandfather was the head of the family, he would never have allowed such recklessness.

But Zhuo Junli had already pointed out the way for her, so she couldn’t be too timid, could she?
