Chapter 130 Portrait

Prince Qi's Palace.

After seeing Yun Wanye, the guards at the door did not stop him and directly led him into the front yard of the palace.

Not long after, Mo Yuanhao appeared in casual clothes.

"Aye, why are you here? What's the matter?"

He looked at Yun Wanye with puzzlement.

Seeing that he came so quickly, Yun Wanye was not sure whether Su Qianxue had sneaked in and met Mo Yuanhao, so he had to test him secretly.

"I have nothing to do today, so I came to your house to have a drink. Do you have any other plans? Have I disturbed you?"

Hearing this, Mo Yuanhao smiled faintly, sat down beside him, and said, "Tell me the truth, why did you come to see me?"

Mo Yuanhao didn't believe a word Yun Wanye said.

The last time this guy entered the gate of Prince Qi's Palace was at his birthday banquet this year. On normal days, he would not come even if you called him. If there was nothing going on, he would definitely not come to see him.

"Nothing can be hidden from the prince!"

Yun Wanye pretended to sigh in annoyance and said, "Yes, I came to see the prince because of Yao'er's matter."

Mo Yuanhao is not so easy to fool. If he is not given a reasonable reason, he will definitely continue to doubt.

Yun Wanye couldn't reveal his real purpose, so he had to use Yun Wanyao as a shield.

After hearing his words, Mo Yuanhao frowned, and a hint of worry flashed across his eyes.

"What happened to Yao'er?"

Yun Wanye coughed, suppressed his guilty conscience, and said seriously, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Yao'er is fine. What I want to say is that those who have bad intentions towards her..."

"You mean, Pei Yu?"

This name subconsciously appeared in his mind, Mo Yuanhao narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of danger flashed across his eyes.

Noticing the change in his expression, Yun Wanye's eyes moved imperceptibly.

"It seems that the prince knows everything, so I won't say any more. Yao'er's carriage had an accident last time, and I heard that the prince is investigating the matter. I would like to ask if the prince has found any results?"

"To be honest, my father also sent people to investigate, but he didn't find anything. That's why I came to your house to find out the news from the prince."

I see!

Hearing Yun Wanye mention this, Mo Yuanhao nodded slightly, took out a folded piece of drawing paper from his arms and placed it on the table.

"This king is indeed investigating this matter, and he has indeed found some clues."

Without waiting for Yun Wanye to ask, he continued, "My people have asked every household nearby and actually found a few witnesses."

"According to witnesses, the two of them suddenly attacked the guards who were following them secretly. One of them chased the carriage, while the other left traces on the ground to clear them."

"The appearance of the man who chased the carriage was also roughly described. This is the portrait drawn based on the description of the eyewitnesses."

After he finished speaking, Mo Yuanhao's eyes fell on the origami.

Yun Wanye frowned, picked up the drawing paper and opened it, and saw a very familiar face. The drawing paper was folded into many folds, but it did not affect the man's handsomeness at all.

The man's facial features and demeanor looked very much like Pei Yu.

He pursed his lips and said nothing for a long time.

Mo Yuanhao couldn't guess what he was thinking or whether he believed him or not, so he took the initiative to speak to break the silence.

"We haven't found enough evidence for this matter yet. I know that it would be hard for you to believe it based on just a portrait."

"After all, portraits can be faked."

"But I can guarantee that I did not interfere with this portrait at all. The painter drew it entirely according to the description of the witnesses."

Yun Wanye nodded and placed the portrait on the table.

"Of course I believe in the prince, but..."

"It's just hard to believe that he did this, right?"

Mo Yuanhao picked up the teacup and took a sip, then responded calmly.

"Yeah, I really can't believe he would do such a thing. What is his purpose in doing this?"

Yun Wanye nodded heavily, sighed, and acted very hard.

In my younger sister’s mind, I’m afraid everyone in their family is suspecting that Pei Yu was the one who did that to Yun Wanyao, so how could he be an exception?

He pretended to be incredulous simply because Mo Yuanhao thought he wouldn't believe it.

"But the fact is that it is very likely that he did it. As for his purpose, it may be to save the damsel in distress, or it may be something else."

At the end of his speech, Mo Yuanhao frowned tightly, his handsome face full of confusion.

His engagement with Yao'er was arranged by his father, and everyone in Dawu knew about it. No one could separate them.

A mere act of a hero saving a beauty would not have any impact on their engagement. Pei Yu was not a fool, so he naturally knew this.

But he still did it at the expense of his own efforts?

Why is this?

Unless, his purpose is not to be a hero and save the beauty, but if it is not to be a hero and save the beauty, then what is his purpose? Mo Yuanhao couldn't figure it out, but he knew that Pei Yu must have a secret.

At the same time, Yun Wanye was also thinking about this problem seriously.

But because he knows more, he thinks more than Mo Yuanhao.

He felt that Pei Yu's purpose in doing this was definitely related to Su Qianxue.

Therefore, rather than asking why Pei Yu did this, it is better to ask what Su Qianxue wanted to do.

The two of them sat there until nightfall, and Mo Yuanhao still looked calm, without any awkwardness after 'hiding the people'.

This made Yun Wanye even more unsure whether Su Qianxue had sneaked in or not.

However, it was not a good idea for him to stay in someone else's house forever. After thinking for a moment, he said goodbye.

After taking a look at the sky outside, Mo Yuanhao tried to persuade him to stay.

"It's getting late. How about you stay here tonight and go back tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Yun Wanye felt a burst of joy in his heart, but a hint of confusion deliberately appeared on his face.

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? Will it disturb the prince too much?"

Mo Yuanhao waved his hand and said, "Don't bother me. I'm just bored lately. Didn't you say before that you wanted to have a few drinks with me? Let's do it tonight."

He originally planned to find a random excuse in the next few days to have Pei come and torture him to extract a confession. If necessary, he didn't mind forcing him to confess.

But who knew that guy offended someone and was beaten seriously on the road and was bedridden. Although he didn't know who did it, he just wanted to say it was a good job.

He had been finding the man named Pei an eyesore for a long time.

However, since Mr. Pei can't even walk now, he can only postpone the matter of calling people for "special treatment".

That night, Yun Wanye stayed at Prince Qi's mansion and drank several pots of wine with Mo Yuanhao.

At the dinner table, he repeatedly spoke ill of Pei Yu, whispering shamelessly in his ears without mercy.

Seeing that he also hated Pei Yu so much, Mo Yuanhao instantly felt a sense of solidarity and his liking for him deepened even more.

Late at night, after drinking several pots of wine, Mo Yuanhao's face turned red and he was already a little drunk, while Yun Wanye was extremely drunk.

He grabbed Mo Yuanhao's arm and acted like a drunk, insisting on sleeping with Mo Yuanhao.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Looking at the exquisite and beautiful young man in front of him, Mo Yuanhao felt a headache. If it were someone else, he would have thrown the person out long ago.

But this man, not only will he be his brother-in-law in the future, but he also has a face very similar to Yao'er's. He just can't bear to be cruel to him.

With a resigned sigh, Mo Yuanhao helped him towards the bed, stuffed him roughly onto the bed, and did not forget to pull down the quilt to cover him.

After doing all this, Mo Yuanhao rubbed his aching head, walked to the couch by the window and lay down in his clothes.

The couch was not long enough and his calves were stretched out, but he didn't care at all. He put one arm behind his head and gently closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes, the young man on the bed opened his eyes in a flash. His ink-black eyes were clear and bright, without the slightest hint of drunkenness.

A smile of success appeared on the boy's face.

Tsk, with him watching Mo Yuanhao tonight, even if Su Qianxue has successfully sneaked into the mansion, she won’t be able to do anything.

After tomorrow, he would find an excuse and search carefully in Prince Qi's mansion.

The room is so harmonious, but outside, it is a completely different scene.

The night was as dark as ink, and beside the rockery, Su Qianxue was almost frozen into an ice sculpture.

In this cold winter month, the temperature difference between day and night is extremely large. You can't feel anything during the day, but once night falls, water turns into ice and the cold is biting.

Su Qianxue's hands had lost feeling. She hugged her arms, her whole body trembling, and even her teeth were chattering.

"It's so cold, System, please give me some more useful items. If I keep freezing like this, I'll freeze to death."

[……][I don’t have any more items, but considering the special situation, I will turn on the cold protection mode for the host.] “Cold protection mode?”

[Yes, after opening it, the host will no longer feel the cold.] "Then what are you waiting for? Open it quickly."

[OK.] [Beep, turning on the cold protection mode for the host. Cold protection mode has been turned on.] As soon as the system finished speaking, Su Qianxue felt the biting cold that had been corroding her body and mind disappear immediately, and her body became warm and comfortable.

Wow, I didn’t expect this anti-cold mode to be so useful. With this anti-cold function, she will no longer be afraid of the cold.

Su Qianxue was feeling very happy, but before she could continue her fantasy, she continued to receive messages from the system that were like death warrants.

[Beep, a friendly reminder, because the host currently has no points, the system will automatically deduct the host's life value as a deduction.] [The host's life value will be deducted for ten days.] Su Qianxue: "..."

"What the hell? Deducting health points?"

Su Qianxue's face turned green, she looked incredulous, and her whole body began to tremble with anger.

[Yes, host. I have told you long ago that there is no free lunch in the world, and the functions of this system are the same.] [If the host wants to enjoy the functions provided by this system, he must pay the corresponding price.] [If there are points, points will be deducted, but the host has no points, so only life points or appearance, knowledge, charm, etc. can be deducted.] [The host's appearance and charm are the key to completing the task, and knowledge, considering that the host is too useless, for the sake of the task, life points will be deducted first.] Su Qianxue: "..."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier if you were going to deduct health points? Why didn't you ask for my opinion?"

[The host didn't ask.][Besides, would it have been useful to tell him earlier? It was the host who said he was going to freeze to death.][The host currently has 25,560 days left in life. Deducting ten days won't have a big impact. Does the host want to freeze to death immediately, or live another 25,560 days?] Su Qianxue: "..."

That makes sense.

If she had to choose between freezing to death immediately and living for another 25,560 days, she would definitely choose the latter.

She was afraid of death, so she let this system control her. Why did she work so hard? Wasn't it just to survive? So, what else could she choose?

[Host, don't be afraid. As long as you can complete the mission and get points in the future, the deducted life points can be redeemed.] "Okay, I understand. Stop talking. Tell me Mo Yuanhao's current situation."

"And that bastard Yun Wanye, I haven't seen him leave since he came into the palace, help me check on his situation."

At this moment, Su Qianxue was extremely eager to complete the task.

She must complete the task as quickly as possible and earn a lot of points to redeem the deducted life points.

In addition, the system's anti-cold mode and today's powerful props allowed her to witness the magic and capabilities of the system.

If she had points, she could redeem them for more good things with unimaginable functions. Just imagine how cool it would be? ?

So, what are you waiting for if you don't hurry up and complete the task? [Okay, host, please wait.] The system quickly began to monitor Mo Yuanhao and recorded the situation in the room into a short video and sent it to Su Qianxue.

After seeing Mo Yuanhao and Yun Wanye sleeping in the same room, Su Qianxue was so angry that her blood rushed backwards. She cursed Yun Wanye hundreds of times, saying all the nasty things she could.

"This guy is staying in the palace and won't leave. I can't be sure if he is coming for me. With him here, how can I dare to get close to Mo Yuanhao?"

"That loser Pei Yu, I asked him to drag the Yun family, have a scandal with Yun Wanyao, cultivate feelings, and secretly manipulate the rumors. But in the end, he was assassinated just after he took the first step. How can I carry out the next plan?"

"Such a loser, not worthy of his male supporting role at all."

"It's strange. Pei Yu has never been assassinated in the plot. Why is he being assassinated now?"

"His plot has only collapsed once, at the Xiangming Tea House, and that time it was due to the Yun family's secret interference."

"So, is it possible that the plot that collapsed this time was also caused by the Yun family?"

"Was he injured by the Yun family?"

"Yes, that's definitely the case. If Yun Wanyao is the new heroine and knows the original plot, then she would naturally know that Pei Yu would fall in love with me in the future and would harm her so badly because of me, so she would start targeting Pei Yu in advance."

"Yes, that must be it."

Ningguo Mansion.

After feeding, Yun Wanning began to flip through the chat box in her mind and happened to see Su Qianxue chatting with the system.

She quickly read the previous messages and suddenly found a short video. After clicking it, she saw Yun Wanye and Mo Yuanhao.
