But this time, when she mentioned Mo Heng and Pei Qin, Mo Er didn't give her a favorable response as usual. "I've already laid down the rule. Anyone from the Mo family must give way and not act recklessly! Where did you throw my words?"
"Dad! It's not that we didn't make way, it's that Mo Heng and Pei Qin are out to get us! Now they've even targeted the Marquis Mansion Yongchang!" Lady Mo complained with dissatisfaction. Seeing his stern and composed countenance, she added, "Dad doesn't know, Luo Zhen was removed for no good reason, and the newly appointed Jiang Dahai might be bribed by them. All that the Zheng family wanted was an arrangement for concubinage, but they ruthlessly charged someone with the crime of being a spy for the Rong Clan, stripping a whole family to the bone at the Five-City Soldiers and Horses Troop! So merciless and brutal; when they target us, who knows what means they'll resort to!"
