Chapter 507 He almost lost him
Consort Yu was taken aback and looked at him: "Father, what do you mean by that?"
"Go ask your brother!" At this point, the Duke of Qin became somewhat angry again, his tone unfriendly.
Consort Yu looked at Qin Jianye.
Qin Jianye said helplessly, "Father suspects... suspects that he is the mastermind behind framing me."
"what?"
“But because Mo’er was also involved in that matter, if we continue to entangle him, he might be forced to have Mo’er stand on the side of our Qin family.” Qin Jianye sighed silently.
Duke Qin was still very angry: "That dog Ding still doesn't dare to touch Mo'er, for fear that Mo'er will return to the Northern Frontier in a fit of anger. At that time, Mo'er will raise an army and establish himself in the Northern Frontier. His internal and external troubles will surely cause chaos in the court."
Yu Fei didn't speak, but her palms slowly tightened.
Qin Jianye also said, "Sister, I have investigated this matter many times, but I can never find the person who sent me the letter. There is a force behind it that is obstructing us, but they seem to be related to the royal assassins."
He looked at Consort Yu. Although he didn't want to see his sister sad, he had to make things clear.
“Sister, he is plotting to get rid of our Qin family. Although you and Mo’er are on the surface, he knows very well that you also have Qin family blood. After the Qin family falls, the next people he will deal with are you and Mo’er.”
“You may not care about yourself, but do you not care about Mo’er and Yunfei either? Your two sons will be thorns in his side in the future! The saying ‘even tigers don’t eat their cubs’ doesn’t apply to the royal family, do you understand, sister?”
Consort Yu remained silent, but a shadow gradually settled over her eyes.
Duke Qin was still very angry. After Qin Jianye poured him some hot tea, he slowly drank it to calm himself down.
Qin Jianye wanted to say something, but seeing his sister's pale face, he didn't continue.
My sister is a capable person. She raised such an outstanding child as Mo'er. If my sister were really willing, the kingdom of Dongling would belong to her and her son.
He used to be an ambitious person, so why has he become like this now, without any fighting spirit?
"Did you abandon the entire plan because of Mo'er's disfigured face?" Duke Qin suddenly asked.
Yu Fei's heart tightened, and she looked up to meet his gaze: "Father, Mo'er... he has no interest in this."
Consort Yu was actually a little confused, but she understood her son's thoughts to some extent.
"Father, I have thought about it. If Mo'er really has no interest in this, then we should just let it go."
"Let it go?" The Duke of Qin raised an eyebrow, his eyes concealing even greater anger.
Consort Yu sighed and advised, "Mo'er's face was ruined, and he was seriously injured and almost died. At that time, I was thinking that as long as Mo'er could get better and be happy in the future, I would not think about this matter anymore."
"Although the entire Lingzhou continent is in chaos now, at least Dongling is still relatively peaceful. Just as Mo'er said, the people are living and working in peace and contentment, which is not a bad thing. His face has been disfigured, and he has no intention of becoming emperor. If he really became emperor, he would be ashamed to face the people of Dongling."
“Father, I don’t want to pressure him. I almost lost him. Now that he’s back, I’m content. Father…”
"You gave up on the idea of making Mo'er emperor just because his face was disfigured?" The Duke of Qin's eyes were cold, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Consort Yu hesitated for a long while before saying softly, "With his disfigured face, even if he becomes emperor, the people will still harbor resentment. No one will submit to him; everyone will see him as a disgrace to Dongling. Such a throne will only become a shackle for him; what use is it to him?"
