Chapter 587: Standing Up for His Wife
Upon hearing this, Mo Lian was immediately displeased with his mother’s disparaging tone of voice. “Mother, what do you mean ‘that lass from the Qiao Family,’ that is your son’s wife. The crown prince consort that Father personally ordained!”
On the side, the king twitched his mouth and wished for nothing more than to smack the back of this son’s head!
This was a punk that always made his father clean up his messes!
Did he issue that royal edict willingly? Ah! He was threatened and coerced to! If he divulged the words that this d*mned son said to him that day in the royal study, they could definitely anger his old mother to death!
In consideration for his feelings of kinship for his wife, he was reluctant to tell Queen Zhao, “this son of yours is that devious of a person.”
As a result, Queen Zhao, who had flown into a rage after receiving the news, rushed to the king’s study and chewed him out in frustration early this morning. Even now, the king was still holding in a belly full of anger!
These days really hadn’t been peaceful.
He wasn’t allowing them to say anything about it either? She just said “that lass from the Qiao Family,” yet their son immediately jumped out to stand up for her?
The queen jabbed her son’s forehead with her eyebrows arched in anger. “Mom hasn’t reprimanded you yet! You and your royal father just rashly issued an edict to that lass from the Qiao Estate by yourselves. Do you still regard me as your mom?”
Queen Zhao truly was about to be angered to death!
On her end, she had been enthusiastic and chomping at the bit, handpicking various estates’ misses for the crown prince this entire time. Fine, that was whatever, but on the other end, her husband and son didn’t let out a peep and just issued a royal edict without warning, directly confirming the crown prince consort candidate at the speed of light.
The crucial point was that she hadn’t seen this crown prince consort at all throughout this entire process! She didn’t know what her moral character was like, either.
She had two good crown prince consort candidates that she favored in her heart, but now, her plans had been completely messed up by this father-and-son pair.
“Royal Mother, your son of course respects you very deeply in his heart.” Mo Lian beamed as he helped his mother to the side to sit down. “But your son’s wife is also very (more) important. If your son can’t marry this wife, your son will have to live as a bachelor for the rest of his life.”
The king grabbed a book and smashed it toward the back of the crown prince’s head. This unfilial son! He actually dared to speak without a filter like this in front of his mother!
Even he didn’t dare mention such rascally words before his own queen.
As expected, Queen Zhao’s eyes bulged in shock, and she looked her son up and down, as if trying to discern if his words were true or false.
Mo Lian tilted his head, evading the book that his old father smashed at him, while looking innocently at his mother.
Seeing that his expression was exceptionally serious, Queen Zhao’s curiosity about that lass from the Qiao Family was completely piqued.
In Queen Zhao’s heart, her son was the most outstanding child in the entire kingdom, and there were few young ladies in this world that could match up to her incomparably excellent son.
She had never seen him care to this extent towards the women around him in these past twenty years. Don’t tell me that her son had pursued this crown prince consort himself, even shielding her like this? It really made people curious…
“Anyways, Mom is displeased that you placed yourself in danger for that lass from the Qiao Family.” Queen Zhao grumbled in dissatisfaction, “You ought to let Mom see your good wife at the palace banquet tomorrow evening, right?”
Mo Lian nodded directly and supported Queen Zhao as he said, “Mom, my wife is still young, so make sure that you don’t scare her. Your son only has this one wife, so if you scare her into fleeing, your son will end up as a bachelor for the rest of his life!”
Queen Zhao was both irritated and anxious as she jabbed her son fiercely. “You child, spouting nonsense all the time.”
The king also glared at the crown prince grumpily.
At this time, an announcement came in from the outside. “My king, Noble Consort Lin and the third prince have come.”
“Tell them to get the hell inside!” The king roared furiously.
