Chapter 160 Auditory Hallucinations
Mo Li was smoking a cigarette on the side, waiting for Emperor Gai Zhang to open his eyes.
However, no matter how long he waited, there was no response from Emperor Gai Zhang.
But Mo Li was not in a hurry. He knew the plot and knew that Emperor Gai Zhang was making a bet with Heshen.
Whoever he wants to win will win.
Even though Emperor Gai Zhang is his fellow countryman from Earth, let Heshen win and see what expression Heshen has.
So he appeared calm and composed.
After an unknown amount of time, Emperor Gai Zhang finally opened his eyes and said, "My dear, I lose."
He Shen said, "Mo Li, have you known for a long time that I was making a bet with the Emperor?"
Mo Li lied, “No, I’m not in a hurry because there’s nothing urgent.”
Heshen said, "So you are very satisfied with the emperor's arrangement." He thought so too. This guy got his wish and became the editor of "Dream of Red Mansions". He was so happy that he couldn't wait to be happy. How could he have any objection to the emperor's arrangement?
As expected, Mo Li hummed.
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Heshen, we have agreed that I will give you five hundred taels."
Mo Li asked knowingly, "I just heard you talking about a bet, sir. What bet?"
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Didn't you know this a long time ago?"
After saying that, he rolled his eyes at Mo Li.
Although Mo Li didn't tell him, he knew that the other party must know the plot of the TV series, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative and done so many things.
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, that's not true. I really don't know."
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "Whether you know it or not, you are hiding something from me."
Since the Emperor had said this, Mo Li felt embarrassed to lie any further and said, "That's true."
He Shen said, "Your Majesty, Mo Li, I don't understand a word you are saying."
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Heshen, this is a matter between me and Mo Li, the emperor and his subject. It's normal that you don't understand. Mo Li, why did you come to see me?"
He was puzzled. Hadn't he already let Xiangyun and Mo Li be together, and also let Mo Li become the editor of Dream of the Red Chamber? Why did the other party come to him again?
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, I came to you to tell you that I have no interest in Xiangyun."
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "It's because she is not good-looking, hehe..." and then he laughed.
He Shen said, "Mo Li, you went through so much trouble to save Xiang Yun from this terrible situation, yet you say you have no interest in her. Do you believe what you say?"
Mo Li said: "I already have Xiaoyue..."
Emperor Gai Zhang thought to himself, "Mo Li, you're so hypocritical! You've traveled back to ancient times, and wasn't having three wives and four concubines normal back then? Yet you're saying I already have Xiao Yue."
As mentioned before, Emperor Gai Zhang has seen some clips of Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan and knows that there are many beauties in this TV series. Among these beauties, Xiangyun is indeed not very good-looking.
But it's the same when the lights are turned off.
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Alright, Mo Li, stop being picky. Xiang Yun is homeless now, so just take her in."
Mo Li said, "Let me make it clear up front, I'm only taking her in, not planning on marrying her. As Your Majesty said, if I married Xiangyun, the entire court would be laughing to death."
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Did I say that?" Then he looked at himself and then at Heshen.
He Shen said, "Your Majesty, you certainly did not say that."
After saying that, he looked at Mo Li and continued, "Mo Li, are you hallucinating? Go find a doctor immediately."
