The villain who defeated the son of destiny was my father

Chapter 209: Her First Man

When Qu Xinzhu parted with Xiu Qing and Yan Changbai, the scene was one of reluctance and inseparability.

She looked back every few steps, her eyes full of nostalgia, until the two figures completely disappeared from her sight, then she turned and walked towards the palace.

At this moment, she walked briskly with a satisfied smile on her face.

As soon as she stepped into the gate of Prince Li's Mansion, Qu Xinzhu saw Mo Li standing in the courtyard with a gloomy face, staring at her.

That gaze seemed to be real, carrying a strong chill, which made Qu Xinzhu's heart skip a beat, and his good mood instantly dissipated a little.

"You finally decided to come back?" Mo Li spoke with an icy cold voice, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

He looked at the happy-looking woman in front of him, and anger rose in his heart.

Someone had already reported to him everything about Qu Xinzhu's scandal with two men in the restaurant.

Which man can tolerate his woman openly cheating on him in public?

Mo Li felt his chest was suffocating and he wanted to strangle the woman in front of him to death immediately.

Seeing this, Qu Xinzhu secretly thought that something was wrong, but she reacted very quickly. She immediately put on a flattering smile on her face, took a few steps forward, grabbed Mo Li's arm, and coaxed him in a gentle voice: "Li, don't be angry. You know, I do all this for a reason. Besides, this time when I go out, I have already thought of a way to help you solve the problem."

"Oh? Do you think you can help me solve this difficult dilemma?" Mo Li raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of suspicion.

Seeing that his attitude had softened, Qu Xinzhu was secretly delighted, and quickly put her arm around his arm affectionately, pulling him towards the inner hall.

As he walked, he explained proudly, "I told you before that there is an expert behind them to help. But if you want the expert to help you, you must pay the price. They have no choice but to deal with them for your sake."

"You mean that Yan Changbai and Xiu Qing have things that the masters need?" Mo Li narrowed his eyes slightly, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he believed Qu Xinzhu's words a little bit.

Qu Xinzhu nodded carelessly and replied without disguising: "Yes, not only them, there are several others, they..."

Just as he was about to blurt out their identities, he suddenly realized something and immediately shut up.

Seeing this, Mo Li did not ask any questions immediately. He just gently held her hand, his face full of heartache, and said softly: "Zhu'er, I'm sorry for your hardship. It's because of my incompetence that I have implicated you."

"Li, don't say that. We are husband and wife, there is no need to say such polite words." Qu Xinzhu looked at Mo Li's self-blaming eyes and felt sweet in her heart, as if all the grievances and hardships she had suffered before became insignificant at this moment. She just felt that everything she had done was worth it.

The two of them stepped into the house together. Mo Li sighed softly, his face full of sorrow, and then he told the dilemma he was facing: "Alas, Zhu'er, thanks to your help a few days ago, the other princes are now hated by my father and have lost his favor. But after all, my birth is not noble enough. Although those ministers in the court are polite to me on the surface, they have always been dissatisfied with my birth and look down on me. Recently, I got the news that several ministers are planning to unite and find a way to get the crown prince and the third prince out of house arrest. If they succeed, my life in the court will not be easy in the future. I will definitely be constrained everywhere and it will be difficult for me to take every step."

"These people are going too far! As the saying goes, a hero is judged by his origin. Why should they look down on you just because of your background?" After hearing this, Qu Xinzhu's eyebrows raised and her face was filled with indignation.

After all, she had been influenced by modern ideas, and it was difficult for her to understand the ancients' persistent prejudice against one's origin.

In her opinion, a person's ability and talent are the most important. What does his or her background matter?

However, since these people dared to look down on Mo Li, she would naturally not let them go easily. They must pay the price for this.

Qu Xinzhu looked at Mo Li with a firm gaze and assured him, "Li, don't worry. With me here, they won't survive this day!"

After saying that, Qu Xinzhu ordered Xiaoyaoer in his heart: "Get rid of those who disobey Li and are dissatisfied with him!"

Since the little one had good luck to earn, naturally everyone agreed.

During dinner, Mo Li and Qu Xinzhu sat opposite each other. The table was filled with exquisite dishes, steaming hot and filled with fragrance.

The two were about to have dinner when suddenly, a secret guard appeared at the door silently, knelt on one knee, and respectfully reported: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Mo Li frowned slightly, glanced at the curious woman beside him, and put down his chopsticks, "What's the matter?"

The secret guard said, "Your Highness, the remnants of the Crown Prince, the Third Prince, and others suddenly died at home today. The cause of death is unknown."

Upon hearing the news, Mo Li's expression remained calm, without any ripples on his face, but a barely perceptible shock flashed across his eyes, and his heart was filled with turbulent waves.

He never imagined that Qu Xinzhu actually had such means to get rid of those troublesome people in a short time.

What's even more terrifying is that she has been staying with him since she came back. What kind of mysterious power did she use to kill those people without anyone knowing?

"Li, people have already dealt with those people for you." When Qu Xinzhu saw the secret guard finish his report, a smug smile appeared on his face, and he couldn't wait to take credit from Mo Li.

Mo Li came back to his senses, quickly concealed his inner emotions, and put a gentle smile on his face again.

He picked up the chopsticks, carefully picked out the fish bones from the fish meat, and gently put it into Qu Xinzhu's bowl, his voice as gentle as water: "Zhu'er, you are really my lucky star. With you, I am like having thousands of troops, so I don't have to worry about not being able to accomplish great things."

Qu Xinzhu pouted and said coquettishly, "It's enough for you to know how good I am. I have really suffered a lot for you."

Seeing this, Mo Li hurriedly hugged Qu Xinzhu into his arms and gently coaxed her, "Zhu'er, it's my fault that I made you feel wronged. In the future, I will definitely compensate you well and never let you suffer any grievances again."

"It's good that you know it. I really love you. Don't let me down in the future." Qu Xinzhu leaned in Mo Li's arms, her voice soft and her eyes full of affection.

Mo Li was the first man she fell in love with after she traveled to this world. Naturally, he held a very important position in her heart, and no one could match him.

Mo Li promised again and again, "Zhu'er, I promise you that you will be the only one by my side in the future. Otherwise, you will live your life alone."

"Li, people believe you." Qu Xinzhu was deeply moved.
