On the other hand, in the study room, Mo Liancheng sat at the desk, his hand slightly moving, painting, while on the lower position of the study room was where Mo Jingxuan is sitting on.
"Eighth elder brother, I don’t understand. Why did you demand for sister-in-law to serve beside you?" Mo Jingxuan could not understand this decision of Mo Liancheng.
"Why not?" Mo Liancheng smiled lightly, his head did not lift, his hand did not stop, even the arrival of Mo Jingxuan only made him slightly lift his head for a while, then he did not pay attention to him.
"But is it not that eighth elder brother does not trust her? Not to mention, sister-in-law is still a woman from Qufu. Don’t forget that Qu’s eldest daughter is also the imperial concubine of the eldest brother. If she is really a spy sent by them, wouldn’t it become troublesome having her near? "
"Oh, indeed. "

" I’m also serious. "
"Then why did you do that?"
"What do you think I should have done if not that?" Mo Liancheng smirked, he did not want to answer Mojingxuan’s doubts immediately. Instead, he wanted him to figure it out on his own.
" If it were me, then I would surely keep her away from me, so that she would never have a chance to get close to me. Even the residence arranged for her would be as far as possible, so as not to worry about seeing her, even if I know that she is unhappy in this marriage. I don’t have such a good a good personality to smile at her every day when I can’t stand her." Mo Jingxuan directly said what he thought in his heart.
"It seems that your prejudice against her is quite deep."
" Are you also not so prejudiced about her?"
"Oh, why do you think so?"
"If the eighth elder brother don’t hate her, will he still leave the bride alone on the first night of their marriage, and never call on her, let alone step into the snow courtyard, even ignore her? Can’t that explain the eighth elder brother’s mind?"
"Well, do you still know something else about me?" Mo Liancheng smiled indifferently, but he did not object to what Mo Jingxuan said, just because what he said, on the surface, was nothing wrong.
"Not that I understand, but no one in the capital does not know, everyone knows, even outsiders are pa.s.sing the words, that eighth elder brother does not like her, and now she is about to be sent into the cold palace."
"Guard your tongue, so as not to let others catch your handle."

" Fear what, anyway, the father’s position is to be pa.s.sed on to you sooner or later. Although the eldest brother is the eldest son, he does not have the ability to govern the country. The second brother’s temperament is too cold and not suitable. So to speak , it is the eighth eldest brother who is the most suitable one."
"If you don’t want me to die, you’d better not say that in the future." Mo Liancheng lightly raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on the drawing paper, His eyebrows wrinkled slightly. It seemed that he was not very satisfied with what he had painted.
"Well, I know, but I still don’t understand, why is eighth elder brother..."
" Since letting her go elsewhere makes me lose sight of her intentions, why don’t I let her stay around me and stare at her all the time? This is called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy. Remember that I once told you that there is a woman who wanted to climb over the wall to escape?"
("Know the enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril. When you are ignorant of the enemy, but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain in every battle to be in peril." ― Quote by Sun Tzu, Art of war)
"Eighth elder brother should not mean..." Mo Jingxuan was shocked and looked incredulously at him.
"When the days are too idle, one should always find something to be busy with."
"w.a.n.g fei arrived."
Suddenly, a voice rang at the door, and the sound fell. The next moment, the closed study was pushed open by the people outside, and Qu Tan’er came in with a plate, followed by a Jing Xin.
