Chapter 174 1 Laughter
Feng Jiuqing looked at Ah He with a cold gaze. Ah He was so scared that he hid behind Princess Lan Shu and whispered, "I am Ah He, not Ming Qing."
Lan Shu patted Ah He on the back and said softly, "Don't be afraid. Mom is here. Nothing will happen."
"Although the Grand Tutor has helped my son before, it also means that he can insult my son at will. Please be careful with your words. My son has suffered enough grievances. This princess will not let him suffer even the slightest grievance."
Feng Jiuqing was silent for a while before he whispered, "Princess, are you so sure that this man is your son?"
Lan Shu was not afraid at all. He looked at Feng Jiuqing solemnly and said, "Yes, he looks exactly like my son. Moreover, he was found by someone by the river a month ago. With so many coincidences, who else could he be if not my Qingqing?"
"He is not!" Mo Ling said suddenly with a dazed look in his eyes.
"Your Majesty! Qingqing fell into the river because of you and now he has finally come back. How can you treat him like this?" Lan Shu looked at Mo Ling angrily with a thin face.
Mo Ling shook his head and said, "If he was Qingqing, I would compensate him a thousand times, but he is not."
Feng Jiuqing looked at Mo Ling with a complicated look in his eyes. He could actually recognize that this person was not him. It seemed that this person might have had some true feelings for him, but it was not enough to overcome his suspicion.
Feng Jiuqing shook his head. What’s the point of thinking about these things now?
Once missed, it is missed. Once hurt, it is hurt. Everything has already been formed and cannot be changed.
Lan Shu sneered and said, "It doesn't matter whether your majesty admits it or not. From today on, he is my son, Princess Lan Shu, and no one can change that."
Mo Ling looked at Lan Shu with a complicated expression and chuckled, "Auntie, you don't regret it, but I will not acknowledge him as Ming Qing, nor will I allow him to use the name Ming Qing. Marquis Annan will never be him."
Lan Shu looked at Mo Ling coldly, and his smile became even colder: "Your Majesty hurt him deeply, but he is not even willing to compensate him. After all, he is just pretending. However, it doesn't matter whether Your Majesty recognizes him or not. He is still my son, Lan Shu, and the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Your Majesty does not need to acknowledge this."
There was a hint of disappointment in Feng Jiuqing's eyes. Princess Lan Shu once again admitted his mistake. Sure enough, his decision not to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion was correct.
"Princess, I'm glad you're happy. However, this Grand Master will not acknowledge him as Ming Qing. If you want to bring him back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you are not allowed to use the name Ming Qing forever. Otherwise, I'm afraid Ming Qing will not be at peace in the underworld."
"Grand Master! My son is alive and well! Be careful with your words!" Prime Minister Lu reprimanded Feng Jiuqing again.
Feng Jiuqing was not afraid at all, and said with a cold look: "As long as you don't use my Mingqing's name, I will have no objection to anything you do. Otherwise, I will make him pay the price!"
Lan Shu sneered: "It's just a name, my son doesn't care about it."
Feng Jiuqing lowered his eyes and repeated it, then raised his eyes to look at Mo Ling and whispered: "Mingqing once said that he chose this name for one person. In the world of countless things, I love three things: the sun, the moon and you. The sun is for the morning, the moon is for the evening, and you are for me morning and evening." ("Flying Birds")
"But now it seems like nothing more than a joke."
boom!
Mo Ling suddenly couldn't hear anything, only the words of the Grand Tutor kept echoing in his mind, "You are my love for you day and night, so did Ming Qing want to be with him for the rest of his life, day and night?" He even gave her his name for him, and entered his life so persistently and passionately, but he ultimately failed Ming Qing.
Guilt and regret made Mo Ling feel pain deep in his bones. A fishy and sweet feeling surged in his throat. The more he tried to suppress it, the more he couldn't.
"puff--"
"A Ling! What's wrong with you?"
Mo Ling's face turned pale, and after a while he said, "Brother, I'm fine."
"You're okay? You're still okay even after vomiting blood? Then what does it take to be considered okay? Someone! Call the imperial physician!" King Nancheng's eyes were full of concern, and every word he said was full of care.
Mo Ling wiped the blood from his mouth and said, "No need, it's just a little blood, nothing serious."
Prince Nancheng glared at Mo Ling: "A Ling! Do you want my brother to get sick too? Cough cough cough!"
"Royal brother! Okay, Royal brother, don't worry, I will call the imperial physician now!"
Mo Ling glanced at the ministers and said, "I am not feeling well, so I will return to the palace first. You can do as you please."
"Your Majesty's health is very important. We respectfully send you off!"
Even the high priest of Nanzhao had to stand up to see the Emperor of Dai Viet off, but Feng Jiuqing sat in his seat and had no intention of getting up. The high priest glanced in Feng Jiuqing's direction thoughtfully.
After Mo Ling and the King of Nancheng left, the high priest also stood up and said, "I am also not very good at drinking, so I will not join you for the feast and will go back to the post station first."
Feng Jiuqing did not stop her. After all, if he did, the High Priest of Nanzhao would probably lose his beastly nature on the spot. Although he hated her, he would not do anything so unscrupulous.
Everyone had left, the show was over, and there was no need for Feng Jiuqing to stay here. When he stood up and passed by Prime Minister Lu, he finally stopped.
"Is Prime Minister Lu really sure that he is your son? Have you ever thought about how sad Ming Qing would be if he made a mistake?"
After saying this, he didn't wait for Prime Minister Lu to reply, and simply turned away, leaving Prime Minister Lu stunned for a moment.
When Jian Han passed by, he also bowed to Prime Minister Lu and said, "Your Excellency, you might as well take a closer look at this person. Be careful of fraud."
Is this person really not his son?
Your Majesty and the Grand Tutor are both unwilling to acknowledge that this person is Mingqing, but Your Majesty and the Grand Tutor are the people who have the most contact with Mingqing. Although they are Mingqing's parents, they have actually only met Mingqing many times.
But he and Mingqing are almost identical, so how could he not be his son? But apart from him and Lanshu, even Jianxiang came to remind him to be careful of fraud.
But what could this man cheat him of?
Prime Minister Lu glanced at the timid Ah He. His temperament was indeed completely different from the bright and lively man in Xuanshi Palace. But he had lost his memory, so it was entirely possible that he had developed a completely different personality. So, was he his son?
But looking at Ah He's face, it was as if Ming Qing was standing in front of him, and Prime Minister Lu could not give a negative answer.
Lan Shu also hesitated for a moment, but when she thought about how they had treated Ming Qing before, she didn't dare to try again. What if Ah He was her lover? She had already abandoned him so many times, was she going to abandon him again?
No, she couldn't do it. Just because of this face, she couldn't bear to be cruel.
Lan Shu and Lu Cheng looked at each other, and they made up their minds to bring Ah He back to the mansion no matter what.
After Feng Jiuqing got on the carriage of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Yue Bai spoke up, "Sir, why does that person look so similar to you? If that person didn't have a trace of murderous aura, I'm afraid I would have made a mistake."
"I don't know where he came from, but his purpose should be to replace me, or to be more precise, to replace Ming Qing. If we have someone monitor him, we can always catch the person behind the scenes."
There was a stern look in Feng Jiuqing's eyes. There would be a price to pay to replace him.
