Mo Yu smiled and said: "No, no, no, I think even if the Crown Princess is not pregnant, Your Highness still cares about her. Your Highness, your relationship with the Crown Princess has been very good recently, and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Have you fallen in love with her?"
"
"Who said that?" King Xian smiled and tapped Mo Yu's head with a fan, "We are husband and wife, so of course we have to care about each other. As her husband, I have to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of her.
Mo Yu, when did you become so nosy?"
Mo Yu smiled and touched his head and said, "I don't care about you. I also hope that His Highness and the Crown Princess can live a harmonious and beautiful life. How wonderful it is now!"
The wise king nodded.
Yes, it’s so good now!
He also likes this kind of stable life with no cold wars, no quarrels, and no fights. This makes him feel very comfortable, and he feels that the Prince's Mansion is like a home.
As for Nalan Meng, he didn't know whether he liked her or not, and he didn't know how she felt about him.
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, they just lived quietly and never asked about such romantic matters.
They just live their lives seriously, respect each other as guests, help each other, and take care of each other. No one wants to ask what's going on.
Maybe this state is the best.
Now, he just wants her to be happy and live a carefree life.

After a while, the Xian Wang returned to the Prince's Mansion with Mo Yu.
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, the wise prince walked towards Ningxiang Pavilion.
He wanted Nalanmeng to drink the sour plum soup he brought as soon as possible.
As a result, when they walked to the front garden, they saw Doctor Shao pulling Uncle Zhou and hiding behind the rockery, as if there was something shameful happening.
"Uncle Zhou..." As soon as Mo Yu saw Uncle Zhou, he was about to speak, but King Xian quickly pressed his mouth to signal him not to speak.
Mo Yu quickly closed his mouth and looked at the two people hiding behind the rockery with curiosity.
Although the two of them were hiding behind the rockery, from the perspective of the wise king, they could be seen clearly.
He immediately pricked up his ears to listen to what the two men had to say.
At this time, Uncle Zhou shook off Dr. Shao's hand and said gloomily: "Doctor Shao, why did you bring me here? Is there anything you can't say in the yard?"
Doctor Shao glanced at the Xian Wang secretly with a pair of weasel-like eyes, then looked at Uncle Zhou and said: "Uncle Zhou, I'm a little short of money recently, can you lend me some money?"
Uncle Zhou looked at Doctor Shao speechlessly and said coldly: "Where do I get the money? Don't borrow money from me, I don't have any money."
"Uncle Zhou, we people don't tell secrets. This time you helped the Marquis to deceive His Highness the Crown Prince. The Marquis gave you a lot of benefits. Why are you pretending to be poor?" Dr. Shao said and turned around.
Roll your eyes.
Hearing this, King Xian and Mo Yu were startled.
It was as if something was violently exploding in Xian Wang's mind.
He immediately looked at the two of them, an icy cold light reflected in his eyes.
At this time, Uncle Zhou clapped his hands and said helplessly: "To be honest, I didn't receive any money from Mr. Hou. Mr. Hou detained my family. He used my family to threaten me and asked me to help him lie to the prince.
Your Highness, I have to do this, where do I get the money?"
Having said this, Uncle Zhou sighed angrily, his face full of sadness.
Doctor Shao said: "I don't believe it. It's not a trivial matter to deceive the prince. There is no way that the marquis will not give you money."
"Come here, catch them!" At this moment, the wise king suddenly gave an order.
Two guards immediately came out from behind him. The two guards immediately stepped forward and grabbed Uncle Zhou and Doctor Shao.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the wise king, Uncle Zhou was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder split apart, and Dr. Shao was also trembling all over.
"Your Highness, why are you here?" Uncle Zhou was so frightened when he saw the Xian King that he knelt on the ground.
The Xian Wang walked forward angrily and looked at the two of them with cold eyes, "Doctor Shao, Uncle Zhou, tell me, how did you deceive me?"
Mo Yu also had an angry look on his face, "Uncle Zhou, His Highness the Crown Prince has always been very kind to you. I didn't expect you to help Nalan Jun deceive His Highness. If you don't make it clear today, I will never let you go."
Uncle Zhou hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I, I don't know anything."
Thinking of his family, he dare not say anything now.
Doctor Shao also said: "Your Highness, you have misunderstood. We did not deceive you at all. You must have heard wrong!"
The wise king said coldly: "You still dare to quibble now? It seems that there is no need for severe punishment. You are unwilling to inflict them. Come, drag them down and serve them with severe punishment!"
Hearing this, Doctor Shao trembled with fright and said hurriedly: "I will attack, I will attack. I just ask Your Highness not to torture me."
"Then why don't you tell me quickly?" King Xian shouted angrily.
"Okay, I'll tell you now." Doctor Shao rolled his eyes and said hurriedly, "His Royal Highness, the Marquis is afraid that you and the Crown Princess will reconcile, and he can no longer use your reputation to do things, so he
Ask me and Uncle Zhou to deceive you and lie to you that the Crown Princess is pregnant. In this case, you will not reconcile with the Crown Princess, and you will not ruin the good deeds of the Marquis."
"What? It turns out that you lied to me about the Crown Princess's pregnancy?" When the Xian King heard this, he stood there angrily, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Doctor Shao said hurriedly: "Yes, Your Highness, I don't want to lie to you, but I have to listen to the words of the Marquis, otherwise my life will not be saved!"
Uncle Zhou also wiped his tears and said with regret: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I don't want to betray you, but my family is in the hands of the Marquis. If I don't listen to the Marquis, he will kill my family, you
Tell me what should I do?"
After hearing what the two said, the wise king said angrily: "It turns out that the Crown Princess is not pregnant at all. You lied to me about all this. I ask you, is the Crown Princess involved in this matter?"
Uncle Zhou shook his head in confusion, "Your Highness, I don't know about these things. I just listened to the Marquis's instructions and lied to you that the Crown Princess was happy. As for the rest, I don't know anything about it."
A coldness flashed in Dr. Shao's eyes, and he immediately said: "Your Highness, of course the Crown Princess knew about this. She cooperated with us and we were able to deceive you. In fact, she knew that she was not pregnant at all. She did this for the sake of Mr. Hou.
For your own sake.”
Hearing this, the Xian Wang held his chest uncomfortably, feeling a severe angina in his heart.
It turns out that Nalanmeng also lied to him!
It turns out that she hasn't changed at all, she is still the same as before, doing whatever it takes to achieve her goals. It turns out that she and Nalan Jun are still together.
Fortunately, he began to believe her and thought that she was no longer colluding with Nalan Junhang. Unexpectedly, he mistakenly believed her.
"Come here, lock them two up first." At this time, the wise king ordered sternly.
"Yes, Your Highness." A guard immediately came forward and tied the two of them up.
