A possessive and obsessive Prince? A dark-bellied Princess Consort with the support of a system that grants mastery over both medicine and poison. A journey of mutual devotion...
Mobeichen, t...
When Mo Feng and Mo Yu returned, they were shocked to see Yun Qingluo's pale face. "Your Highness, we will go and fetch a doctor."
Yun Qingluo stopped Mo Feng, "I am a doctor myself, don't go to so much trouble. I called you here because I wanted to ask where the Prince and my two older brothers went?"
Mo Feng and Mo Yu lowered their heads and answered calmly, "Your Highness, the Prince and my elder brothers have gone to the elders of the Zumo City clan to discuss the disaster situation."
Yun Qinglu raised an eyebrow, her eyes darkening. "Is that so? Then take me to them and see what results they've come up with."
Mo Feng looked up at Yun Qingluo and said, "Your Highness, the Prince said that the council was tedious and boring, so he specially asked me to take you into the city to continue treating the people."
Yun Qing remained silent, and neither of them dared to utter a sound.
After a moment, Yun Qingluo looked at the two of them, her voice icy, "Aren't you going to tell the truth?"
The two immediately knelt down, saying, "Your Highness, everything we have said is true."
Yun Qingluo gave a self-deprecating laugh, "Every word is true? Last time he had an attack, he promised me that he would never lie to me or hide anything from me again. Now he is still going his own way. This princess is not going to serve him anymore."
"An Jiu, pack your things, I'm going back to the capital." Yun Qingluo turned to An Jiu and said this before getting up and walking towards her room.
Mo Yu glanced at Mo Feng, feeling flustered, and asked him with her eyes: How can the princess be so smart?
Mo Feng: Could the woman the prince has taken a liking to be anything less than excellent?
After a while, Mo Feng saw Yun Qingluo come out of the room with a bundle, and he couldn't help but feel anxious. "Your Highness, things are still not stable inside and outside the city. There will be no one to escort you back to the capital. Let's wait for the Prince to return."
Yun Qinglu snorted coldly, "He doesn't even treat me like a princess, and he tries to hide everything from me. Why should I stay here and humiliate myself?"
Mo Yu blurted out, "Your Highness, the Prince just didn't want you to worry. They will definitely return safely."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo looked up and stared intently at Mo Yu.
Mo Yu lowered her head, her mind in turmoil. Damn it, how did she fall for the princess's trick?
"Explain yourself." Yun Qingluo's voice was icy cold, making everyone present feel as if they were seeing a prince.
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Mo Feng said directly, "The prince and the two young masters have gone to the mountains to suppress bandits."
"When did they leave? How many people did they take with them?" Yun Qingluo wasn't shocked; it seemed to be expected.
"The imperial court did not send any troops; the prince and his two sons took a thousand men from the Southwest Camp with them."
Yun Qingluo suddenly looked up, "When we reported to the imperial court before, it seemed that there were 10,000 bandits, right?"
Mo Feng nodded through gritted teeth, “The three kingdoms are all eager to make a move when they hear about the gold mine. This border is adjacent to Wangyue Kingdom. Scouts reported that Wangyue Kingdom heard that the Regent had come to the southwest and stationed itself not far from the southwest border the day before yesterday, frequently harassing our soldiers, but has not provoked a war.”
Fearing a shortage of manpower on the other side if the prince brought too many men, he only took one thousand men with him.
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo thought, "Isn't this ridiculous?"
"Does anyone in the city know about this news?" Yun Qingluo suddenly looked up at Mo Feng and asked.
Mo Feng shook his head. "His Highness also wanted to finish things here as soon as possible and return to the capital. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, His Highness's whereabouts were not revealed. When he went to the Southwest Camp to mobilize troops, His Highness only said that there were not enough people to rebuild the city."
"Yes, let's keep it a secret to avoid being taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives," Yun Qingluo nodded.
"Mo Feng and Mo Yu will continue to handle disaster relief and reconstruction matters in the city. I'm going to the mountains to find the Prince."
As soon as Yun Qingluo finished speaking, she was met with opposition from three people.
Yun Qingluo sighed, "An Jiu, come with me. I'll be careful. I'll leave this to you and Mo Yu. Here are 1,500 pills. Today, we need to get the people to take them quietly, without alerting anyone, not even the people. Mo Feng and Mo Yu, can you do it?"
"Your Highness, rest assured, my trusted people will mix the medicine into their food," Mo Feng assured her.
Yun Qingluo nodded, "Also, have someone keep an eye on Mo Rufeng and investigate him thoroughly, down to the smallest detail."
Mo Yu asked in confusion, "Your Highness, Young Master Mo has been with us the whole time, helping to treat the people. He has never left our sight. He is very approachable and seems like a very nice person."
Yun Qingluo gave him a deep look. "No one is perfect. If you think he is so perfect, either he is one in ten thousand, or he is good at pretending. A person who grew up in a place where people eat each other and spit out the bones can't be very pure. Don't alert him."
"Yes, Your Highness," Mo Yu replied cautiously.
"But Your Highness, the Prince will surely return safely. He may have been delayed on his journey. Your Highness, please..." Mo Feng continued to plead with him.
Yun Qingluo raised her hand to stop him, "Achen is efficient and decisive in his work, never dragging things out. If he had gone into the mountains after we parted yesterday, he should have had a result by now."
"Perhaps, perhaps His Highness simply didn't get the chance to act," Mo Yu said, trying to find an excuse.
Yun Qingluo glanced at him indifferently, "Achen never does anything without being sure of success. Since he dared to go, he must have made thorough preparations. By the way, who did Achen see before going to the mountains, and what information did he receive?"
Perhaps Ah Chen had already planned it on the way, but with so many opportunities, he couldn't possibly keep it from her unless something unexpected happened or he got a rare opportunity, so he made the decision to go into the mountains on the spur of the moment.
Mo Yu recalled, "Yesterday, Mo Feng was busy the whole time, so I followed him not far from the Prince. The Prince was with the eldest and second young masters the whole time, and the content of his discussions with the officials was all very serious..."
"By the way, I heard that the prince seems to have decided to go into the mountains in the next couple of days, but why does he suddenly feel the need to go into the mountains so soon?" Mo Yu said, his voice tinged with doubt.
