Chapter 268: The Moon Goddess Takes Initiative, the Fortune of Having Multiple Wives!
Li Mo’s finger poking Fei Yan’s nose froze immediately.
Are you serious, my dear wife?
“I’m serious,” Fei Yan seemed to hear his thoughts.
She took his hand off her nose.
Looking at Li Mo, her eyes like black gems shimmered softly in the moonlight.
“Do you know why Moon Goddess went to Xianyang?”
Li Mo turned his wrist, holding her hot little hand.
Calmly, he said, “Donghuang Taiyi wants her to replace my position in Qin Kingdom.”
It’s not hard to guess.
So even if Fei Yan didn’t have time to tell him, Li Mo could still figure it out.
Donghuang Taiyi wanted to cooperate with him but was wary of his power.
No matter how well the Yin-Yang School develops, its disciples’ skills will never surpass that of a giant like Qin.
So Donghuang Taiyi wanted to find a balance.
That is to let Moon Goddess replace him in Qin.
Li Mo had to admit, this old man’s idea was indeed not bad.
But unfortunately, he probably didn’t understand why he had such a high status in Qin.
What’s the use of sending Moon Goddess over?
She can’t get past the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager, although having returned power to Yingzheng, still has significant influence over Yingzheng.
Moreover, Yingzheng has seen the contributions he made to Qin.
So unless he himself doesn’t want to be the national advisor anymore.
Otherwise, his status cannot be shaken.
And the reason Fei Yan said those things is also very simple.
If they could win over Moon Goddess and make her one of their own, they wouldn’t have to worry about her secretly causing trouble for Li Mo.
This way, they could even turn the tables on Donghuang Taiyi.
Fei Yan, being an insider, certainly worried a lot for Li Mo.
Although her life trajectory had changed, her character hadn’t.
She still had that devoted mindset, prioritizing her husband’s family over her own.
Li Mo wasn’t moved by these words.
But by Fei Yan’s constant consideration for him.
They lived in an elegant courtyard.
Similar to the one where Li Mo stayed with Flame Spirit when he first arrived in Xianyang and met Fei Yan.
But this one was more luxurious.
The courtyard had rockeries, flowing water, pavilions, and towers.
Li Mo and Fei Yan stayed in the highest building.
And Moon Goddess stayed in the adjacent building.
Tonight was another full moon.
Although no lamps were lit in the room, the moonlight was brighter than candlelight.
The silver moonlight was bright as the clouds.
A graceful beauty stood by the window.
Her long purple-white dress fluttered, and the veil covering her eyes swayed in the wind.
She looked like a fairy descending from the moon palace.
Moon Goddess had an ethereal, fairy-like presence.
If there were real fairies in the world, they would look like her.
But at this moment, this mysterious fairy’s face was flushed.
Though Moon Goddess was well-informed, it was her first time hearing such sounds.
Especially from her senior sister!
Even though the two protagonists had calmed down, she, the eavesdropper, was still unsettled.
Suddenly, Moon Goddess, who had been standing still, raised her hand.
She held a uniquely shaped box in her slender hand.
It was the musical box found in the Mechanical City of the Mohists.
Moon Goddess had retrieved it mainly to interrupt the nearly kissing Li Mo and Fei Yan.
For some reason, Li Mo never asked her for it!
Staring at the musical box, Moon Goddess suddenly felt a void in her heart.
Why did her senior sister earn his affection and love?
Why didn’t he blame her no matter what she did?
Yet she only activated a mechanism and got scolded severely.
“What my senior sister can do, I can do too. What she has, I must have as well!”
Moon Goddess tightly grasped the musical box.
Her glance flickered with a pathological craze.
The next morning.
Li Mo and Fei Yan, refreshed, stepped outside.
Moon Goddess came out even earlier than them.
As they opened the door, they saw her standing in the courtyard.
“Senior sister, you look radiant.”
Moon Goddess’s gaze, hidden behind the veil, fixed on Fei Yan’s rosy face.
Fei Yan, with a calm expression, seemed to have forgotten that Moon Goddess heard everything last night.
With an elegant smile, she said, “Yes, a good sleep makes for a good complexion.”
Sleeping in her husband’s arms until dawn couldn’t be more delightful.
A strange look flashed in Moon Goddess’s eyes.
Such a noble and dignified senior sister, she wondered what she would look like at such a time.
Really wanted to see!
The Moon Goddess wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Mo.
“Your Excellency Moon Goddess doesn’t look very well, didn’t you sleep well last night?”
The Moon Goddess pursed her thin lips.
She replied indifferently, “Acceptable.”
In reality, she hadn’t slept a wink last night.
Every time she closed her eyes, she would think about the scenes of them in the room together.
The less she witnessed with her own eyes, the more her imagination ran wild.
She felt like a heavy stone was weighing on her chest all night.
Judging by the distance, the group could reach the capital city of Yan by the afternoon.
After having breakfast, they continued their journey.
Li Mo sat for a while, and his body habitually leaned towards Fei Yan.
Fei Yan smiled at him and adjusted her posture to make him more comfortable resting on her lap.
“Rest for a while, my husband, Fei Yan will massage your head.”
She raised her hand and gently massaged Li Mo’s temples.
She was as gentle as could be, as considerate as could be.
Li Mo smiled contentedly and said, “Thank you, my lady.”
“It’s no trouble, husband, you are the one who’s been working hard.”
Fei Yan shook her head, still smiling.
Li Mo indeed had a rough night, trying out every spot in the room with her—it was quite the physical task!
On the other side, the Moon Goddess glanced at the intimate couple, feeling a pang of jealousy.
After hesitating for a long while, she suddenly moved closer.
Li Mo, who was whispering with Fei Yan, was slightly stunned.
Next, he felt a pair of soft, cold hands gently pressing on his leg.
Fei Yan looked in astonishment at the Moon Goddess, who took the initiative to knead Li Mo’s leg, rendering her speechless.
Her small mouth slightly open, appearing somewhat cute.
In her heart, Fei Yan was proud, and so was the Moon Goddess.
She couldn’t have imagined the Moon Goddess would take such initiative.
“Is the pressure okay?”
The Moon Goddess didn’t meet her gaze; she knew Fei Yan was looking at her.
Let her look.
I told you, whatever you can do, I can do too.
What you have, I must have too!
“It’s… fine.”
Li Mo nodded while pursing his lips.
Jealousy can disfigure a person.
The Moon Goddess’ actions undoubtedly stemmed from her unwillingness to accept Fei Yan having such a significant place in his heart.
But speaking of it,
A virtuous senior sister massaging his head, a cool and elegant junior sister kneading his legs,
This kind of blessing is not something everyone can enjoy.
