Chapter 2258: Love transcending a thousand years (Part 2)

At such a lively banquet, as long as you could show off in front of the emperor, not only would you gain wealth, you would also gain fame and status.

Even if you didn’t have anything else, you could get a reward for playing the qin or singing a tune.

No matter how bad, it was a good thing to show off a bit in front of the emperor.

But they didn’t go.  It was probably because of their similar statuses that they felt sympathy towards each other.

In these lonely times, they became childhood lovers.

For Mo Ye, the previous host had always been a child, a child that needed to be protected.

He said, “I am only a weak prince, a fish that can’t even reach the chopping board.  Do you want to be my friend?”

She replied, “Greetings big brother prince.  Then are you willing to be friends with someone born to a concubine like me?”

Answering a rhetoric with a rhetoric, Mo Ye was actually speechless.

“Good, I’ll be your friend from now on.”

“Un, the only friend.”

From that day forth, the previous host went to the palace to find Mo Ye from time to time.  The palace was very strict, so most of the time she snuck behind her father’s back.

Although they were separated by the gap in age, it didn’t prevent them from talking to one another.

Rather, they both felt that only the other person could understand what they were saying.

In Mo Gong Yi’s twenty fifth year of reigning, the Hundred Flower Banquet was hosted for the eldest princess.

The whole banquet was filled with people who came to flatter him.  Since the banquet was special, they didn’t have time to sneak off after sitting down.

As for this Hundred Flower Banquet, for the ancient people it was a hundred flowers blooming.

There were men and women looking for relationships at this banquet, some even wanted to find true love.

For the previous host and Mo Ye, it was a world that was completely different from their own.

They never thought that even if they didn’t offend anyone, others would still offend them.

Mo City, also known as Moonlight City was the capital of the Mo Dynasty.

There were rumours that the fourth prince Mo Ye was the most handsome man in all of Moonlight City, becoming the idol of many women.

But due to his lowly status, even if he had a dazzling face, most of the ministers’ daughters only took a few looks, but didn’t go forward.

But it was at this time that the crown prince came forward.  He was drunk as he said with a smile, “I heard that fourth brother is the most handsome man in Moonlight City, why don’t you have any beauties by your side!”

The crown prince’s name was Mo Kuan and as his name, his body was wide.

Mo Gong Yi gave him this name so that he would be lenient to others, but he never thought that his body would also develop this way.

He was not tall, but he was as fat as a ball.

But even with this appearance, there were several girls around him.

The previous host was only twelve years old, but she had grown slim and graceful.

She was naturally angry that Mo Ye was being bullied.  She stood up without another word and walked towards Mo Ye before sitting down beside him.

After a few seconds, she said, “Who says he doesn’t!”

The previous would never forget that look.  No fear of power, no fear of being hurt, not caring what would happen.

Liking someone meant standing by their side no matter what happened.

Even if the other person was the crown prince who stood above all except one.

Of course, bravery came at a price!

For example, the beating of her father who never cared for her.  For example, being starved for three days and nights.

The reason was very simple.  The Luo Family wanted to support the crown prince and not some prince in the cold palace.

But the matter of the previous host spread all over the court.
