"Last night...last night..."
Peony stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
However, Mo Shisheng's patience wasn't that good, and she coldly said, "."
"Last night, when I accompanied Your Highness back from Miss Mo's place, we encountered the Second Prince. He took Your Highness away and I don't know what he did to you... When we returned, it was His Highness the Crown Prince who carried Your Highness back."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face again. "Your Highness didn't sleep all night. After His Highness the Crown Prince left, she kicked me out... and I still haven't slept..."
"I see."
Mo Shisheng understood the whole story and walked to the locked door. "Qi Muxiao, will you open the door yourself, or should I use a special method to get in?"
"..."
No one answered her from inside the palace, as if no one was there at all.
Mo Shisheng didn't know Nan Chen's personality, but taking Qi Muxiao away under the cover of night was definitely not a good thing.
The fact that Qi Muxiao is unwilling to open the door and see anyone now proves the seriousness of the matter.
Receiving no response for a long time, Mo Shisheng glanced at Shaoyao, who was standing beside her, and said, "Step back."
"Ooh ooh!"
Peony was taken aback at first, then quickly took several steps back.
At first, she didn't understand what Mo Shisheng was going to do, but when she saw what happened next, Peony's mouth couldn't help but open wide enough to fit an egg.
A look of surprise filled her face.
Mo Shisheng lifted her foot, her movements swift and graceful, and kicked open the tightly locked door in one go, leaving the door frame still trembling violently.
"Go and guard the courtyard gate, don't let anyone near."
After leaving these words, Mo Shisheng stepped inside, exuding an imposing aura.
Peony was still in shock and hadn't recovered yet. Although she was still worried about Qi Muxiao, she felt relieved after seeing Mo Shisheng enter the palace.
She didn't know why, but she just felt that Mo Shisheng could definitely comfort Qi Muxiao... It was a kind of mysterious trust.
Mo Shisheng stepped into the palace, where Qi Muxiao was sitting on the bed, still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
Her face was pale, with tear stains on her cheeks, and she looked haggard and disheveled.
Seeing Qi Muxiao like this made Mo Shisheng frown. She walked a few steps to the bedside and sat down, asking gently, "What happened last night?"
"..."
Upon hearing Mo Shisheng's voice, Qi Muxiao mechanically turned her head, tears suddenly welling up in her dry eyes. She suddenly lunged forward and hugged Mo Shisheng tightly, sobbing softly.
Mo Shisheng seemed not to have expected Qi Muxiao to suddenly hug her and cry. Her appearance, gentle concern and comfort were like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
A faint chill flashed in Mo Shisheng's eyes as he gently placed his hand on Qi Muxiao's back, stroking it softly.
Qi Muxiao cried even harder, gasping for breath, "How...how could he do this...how could he...treat me like this...sob...I'm so sad...what should I do..."
Despite the intermittent words, Mo Shisheng still managed to hear them clearly.
The "he" that Qi Muxiao was referring to must be Nan Chen; there is no one else.
Could it be that he defiled Qi Muxiao?
Her gaze fell lightly on Qi Muxiao's exposed neck, a fair and tender area without any marks. Moreover, Qi Muxiao's clothes hadn't been changed, so nothing like that had happened.
