Main text 22. Xiaobaokeng People's Story (5)

In the blink of an eye, it was almost the day of Mo Suiyun's wedding, and the envoys from various countries who came to congratulate him had almost all arrived. Not all novel websites are the first to publish romance novels, search + Tianshu Chinese website and you will know. Except for Lei Tengfeng and Mo Xiaobao, no other country's leaders came in person. Since the last time he had a secret talk with Lei Tengfeng, Mo Xiaobao had been unusually quiet, and he didn't even show any emotion when he received the alliance agreement that Lei Tengfeng and Mo Suiyun had secretly signed.

However, even if Mo Xiaobao behaved well and didn't cause any trouble, Mo Suiyun's wedding was destined to become a joke because he invited this Mingxing to attend in a moment of impatience.

On the first day of the wedding, a shocking news reached the palace. The future queen of Nanchu, Mo Suiyun's wife who had not yet married into the family, eloped with someone on the first day of the wedding? !

Upon receiving the news, Mo Suiyun broke the wolf-hair brush in his hand on the spot.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Mo Suiyun asked coldly.

The sent guards were quite capable and returned in less than two hours. "Your Majesty... Your subordinates have interrogated the maid of the Qian Mansion. It is said that... Miss Qian met a young man named Huo who claimed to be the illegitimate son of a wealthy businessman in Guangling a few days ago. The two hit it off right away... Miss Qian has been in a bad mood these days. This morning, when the maid brought water to the room, she found that Miss Qian was missing."

"The boy with the surname Huo?" Mo Suiyun frowned and asked, "What does he look like? Is he from Guangling?"

The guard said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's a fake name. There is no wealthy businessman who believes in Huo in Guangling." Although Guangling is now the territory of Prince Ding's Mansion, it is too close to Nanchu, so they are naturally familiar with it. Moreover, the surname Huo itself is very rare. If there is such a surname, they will naturally know it. "According to Miss Qian's maid, he is a handsome young man in white clothes, but he looks about thirteen or fourteen years old. He looks very handsome and well-behaved, and people think he is a good person at first sight."

"Fake name?" Mo Suiyun frowned. If the bride really had an affair and eloped, then it would be fine. But if someone deliberately abducted the bride at this time, then... But no matter what, the woman surnamed Qian deserves to die!

"Send someone to find him immediately! If he's alive, I want him to be found; if he's dead, I want his body to be found!" Mo Suiyun said in a stern voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The guard was shocked and quickly withdrew. No matter whether Miss Qian was dead or alive or why she ran away from marriage, she would not be alive even if she was found.

"Your Majesty, Prince Ding requests an audience." The eunuch outside the door reported.

Mo Suiyun's face darkened. The person he least wanted to see now was Mo Xiaobao. He said irritably, "No!"

"Oh, Brother Suiyun. People come to comfort you personally, how can you be so cold and heartless?" Mo Xiaobao's lazy and joking voice, which makes people hate him, can be heard outside the door. Before Mo Suiyun can say anything, Mo Xiaobao has already walked in with a smile on his face. Seeing him like this, Mo Suiyun inexplicably remembered the mantra that classmate Mo Xiaobao often said, "I feel happy when I see that you are not doing well." This bastard must have come here to laugh at him!

"What are you doing here?" Mo Suiyun asked unhappily. Mo Xiaobao blinked innocently and said, "I heard that Brother Suiyun's queen... um, is missing. Didn't I come here to comfort Brother Suiyun? Well, I still have a few people in Nanjing City. Do you want them to help you find her? What if it delays tomorrow's wedding?"

"No need!" Mo Suiyun gritted his teeth. This guy really came here to laugh at him! He actually thought that he was in a hurry to find that woman for tomorrow's wedding? ! Could it be that he, Mo Suiyun, has fallen so bad that he must marry a woman who eloped with someone?

"We've met each other, so please don't be polite." Mo Xiaobao said kindly.

"Thank you for your kindness." Mo Suiyun gritted his teeth.

Mo Xiaobao nodded generously and said with a smile: "It's a piece of cake."

Mo Suiyun resisted the urge to force someone out and whip his corpse, and said in a deep voice: "I have something important to do. If Prince Ding has nothing else to do, please go back first." Mo Xiaobao raised his eyebrows and said: "Important? Uh... Is the whereabouts of the Queen Mother considered an important matter?"

"She is not the queen!" Mo Suiyun roared.

Mo Xiaobao was stunned by the yelling, blinked and said aggrievedly: "Is that so, then there is nothing important. I'll take my leave first." Then he walked towards the door of Yu's study.

"Stop!" Mo Suiyun said angrily, "Where is that jerk?"

Mo Xiaobao touched his chin and said with a smile: "Well... before entering the palace, I seemed to see her following a man out of the north gate, probably going to the Yunlan River." After crossing the Yunlan River, it is no longer under Mo Suiyun's jurisdiction, and the north is so vast that it is easy to hide people.

Mo Suiyunqi's face turned dark, but he quickly came to his senses. He stared at Mo Xiaobao suspiciously and asked, "How do you know her?"

"Ah... so..." Mo Xiaobao looked at Mo Suiyun hesitantly, and said a little embarrassedly: "Well, I just happened to know the Queen's... sweetheart."

"Mo Yuchen! You die!" Mo Suiyun finally couldn't bear it anymore, and directly pulled out the sword decorated on the wall next to him and slashed at Mo Xiaobao. Mo Xiaobao blinked excitedly, and leisurely moved aside to avoid this obviously unprofessional sword. But Mo Suiyun refused to stop there, and chased Mo Xiaobao with the sword and slashed randomly. Mo Xiaobao didn't fight back, but smiled and moved to avoid Mo Suiyun's attack. The two slashed all the way from Yu's study to Yu's garden. The guards who heard the news originally wanted to protect the emperor, but seeing that the murderer was their own emperor, and the man who was chopped looked leisurely strolling in the garden. On the contrary, watching people being chopped is more tiring than being chopped. In such a comparison, the guards were too embarrassed to help.

"Brother Suiyun, let's talk nicely." Mo Xiaobao said with a smile.

"I'm not telling you shit!" In a rage, Mo Suiyun even forgot the emperor's special name "朕" and burst out cursing. He must kill Mo Yuchen, this evil, and rid the world of evil.

"Brother Suiyun, there's no point in getting angry. It's not like I seduced that person away..."

Everyone was horrified, and all of them showed expressions of "I see, that's how it is". When they finally realized what was happening, they wanted to poke their ears out immediately.

"Do you dare to say that it was not you who ordered it?" Mo Suiyun sneered.

Mo Xiaobao thought about it awkwardly and said, "I really didn't order it..." He just made some suggestions in the early stage, threatened in the middle, and framed in the end.

"I don't believe it, go to hell!" Mo Suiyun sneered. Mo Xiaobao helplessly flew into the air and sat on the roof opposite, lamenting, "It's really hard to be a good person these days."

Mo Suiyun gave him an extremely cold smile, turned around and glanced at the guards watching the show, and shouted: "Are they all dead?! Shoot him down for me!"

The guards naturally did not dare to disobey the order, and quickly bent their bows and put arrows on them. At once, long arrows rained down on someone sitting on the roof basking in the sun. Looking at the rain of arrows shooting at him, Mo Xiaobao leaped in the air and drew a black rainbow shadow, and instantly slipped away from a long distance. Mo Xiaobao's screams could be heard from afar, "Mo Suiyun, you narrow-minded and stingy guy! You deserve to be ignored..." The echoes echoed in the air for a long time. According to the guards who had good internal strength, they didn't know whether the people of Nanjing City heard the shocking roar of Prince Ding, but everyone in the palace must have heard it.

Mo Suiyun stared at the eaves of the palace where Mo Xiaobao disappeared, his expression changing from green to purple, and he saw a group of guards trembling with fear. After a long time, Mo Suiyun gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Mo Yichen, I must kill you!"

After killing Mo Suiyunqi half to death, Mo Xiaobao suddenly felt more refreshed all over. As expected... life is boring if you don't do something interesting every day. Mo Xiaobao strolled leisurely in the palace. Although this is the palace of Nanchu and not the back garden of Prince Ding's house, most of the guards in the palace have already known Prince Ding, who is young but can make people angry to death, and no one dared to stop him. Moreover, with Mo Xiaobao's young age and his skills that have been tortured by Mo Xiuyao for more than ten years, no one can stop him.

"Your Highness Prince Ding." Mo Xiaobao was lying on the edge of a flowerbed in the Yu Garden, staring at a peony in full bloom. It was a pleasant surprise to see peonies blooming so beautifully in Jiangnan at this time of year. Moreover, Licheng is located in the northwest after all, and there are fewer flowers to be seen than in Jiangnan. Mo Xiaobao felt that the elegant and noble Wei Zi in front of him was really in line with his taste and style. He hesitated whether to be a flower thief and take it away from the Yu Garden and move it back to his own Dingwang Mansion Flower Garden in Licheng.

Looking back at Princess Lin'an who was walking over from the other end of the garden, Mo Xiaobao turned around without much interest and continued to stare at the peony in front of him, drooling silently.

"What is Prince Ding looking at?" Princess Lin'an felt the veins on her forehead throbbing. How could she, a beautiful lady like a flower, not be as beautiful as a flower in the eyes of Mo Yichen?

Mo Yuchen said calmly: "Look at the flowers. Tsk tsk... the climate in Jiangnan is still good. Look at the flowers raised here. They are worthy of being the king of flowers. They are so gorgeous and graceful. They are really charming."

If she hadn't had some sense left, Princess Lin'an would have wanted to grab the person lying on the edge of the flower bed and look up, shake him vigorously and yell: Are you really okay?! He was obsessed with a flower, but left her, a beautiful woman, aside. How could such a freak who looked at a dead object as if it were a beauty, and looked at a beauty as if it were a dead object, be born!

"If Prince Ding likes it, Princess Lin'an will ask my brother to give it to Prince Ding." Princess Lin'an gritted her teeth, wishing she could destroy the Wei Zi plant that was trembling slightly in the wind.

"Is it okay?" Mo Xiaobao was a little hesitant and said, "Mo Suiyun is so stingy, he will definitely not agree."

Princess Lin'an immediately recalled the startling cry, and the corners of her beautiful lips twitched. With the emperor's current mood... he definitely just wants to destroy someone. Giving him such a precious Wei Zi? I'm afraid he wouldn't even want to give Prince Ding a weed from his garden.

Mo Xiaobao bit his finger nonchalantly and said, "But it doesn't matter... I can take it back first. I'll tell him when Mo Suiyun's aura disappears..."

Princess Lin'an twitched her lips, coughed lightly and said calmly: "Your Highness, Lin'an has something to ask you. Could you please spare a little time for me?" The word "a little" seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

Mo Xiaobao blinked his eyes, and finally nodded. He stood up and looked at the flower in front of him reluctantly and said, "Okay, Princess, what do you want to say?"

The two of them walked to a nearby pavilion and sat down. Even so, Princess Lin'an still felt that someone was still looking at her more than her. Every word, action, and even the look of Prince Mo told Princess Lin'an one fact - he is not interested in you! What made people even more angry was that he did not show it on purpose. Instead, he naturally expressed this meaning. At least with Princess Lin'an's eyesight, she could not see any artificiality.

Princess Lin'an gritted her teeth secretly. Although Prince Ding was one of the best in the world in terms of appearance, power and ability, she would never want to marry such a man if she could choose. If the previous Prince Ding was the representative of a good husband, then the one in front of her was simply the synonym of a bastard. A woman who married him would definitely be doomed for the rest of her life.

But Princess Lin'an knew that if she didn't marry him, she would have to marry the playboys from the aristocratic families in Nanjing City that her brother needed to win over. Since the Great Chu moved south, the sons of officials have become more and more playboys. If a few outstanding men could be picked out occasionally in the early years, in recent years, all those who are truly capable and competent have run to Licheng. Princess Lin'an didn't want to marry an ordinary playboy and live an obscure life in a big house.

"Princess Lin'an, do you have anything to say?" After waiting for a while and seeing that Princess Lin'an did not speak, Mo Xiaobao raised his eyebrows and asked.

Princess Lin'an gritted her teeth and asked in a deep voice, "Lin'an wants to know, what's wrong with me that makes the prince unwilling to marry Lin'an?"

"Not good?" Mo Xiaobao raised his eyebrows, looked at Princess Lin'an for a few times, and then said with a smile: "Well... maybe Princess Lin'an is too old?"

Princess Lin'an gritted her teeth and said, "I'm only fifteen years old!"

Mo Xiaobao nodded and said, "Yes, but I said I would marry at the age of 25. Wouldn't you be 25 by then?"

"Will you be only fifteen or sixteen when I am twenty-five?" Princess Lin'an almost wanted to yell. But she also knew that there was nothing to say. Men and women are so unfair in this regard. Men are established at thirty, but women are old at thirty. Princess Lin'an couldn't help but envy Princess Ding. Princess Ding met the most suitable person at the most suitable age.

After calming down her thoughts, Princess Lin'an said, "Your Highness should know that my brother wants to marry into the Ding Palace. I can promise that as long as Your Highness agrees... I will never disturb Your Highness in the future. No matter... what kind of woman Your Highness wants to marry in the future, I will... have no objection."

Mo Xiaobao propped up his chin and looked at Princess Lin'an seriously. He shook his head as if he was a little disappointed and said, "If that's the case, why would I go to Princess Lin'an? What's the difference between that and raising a useless person for nothing? What's more, if I have a girl I like in the future, wouldn't that be unfair to her?"

So you are determined not to like me?! Princess Lin'an said in her heart. Although she had no feelings for this wicked Prince Ding who seemed like a child who had not grown up yet, it was still very hurtful for a woman to be ignored so naturally. Mo Xiaobao smiled at Princess Lin'an and said, "I know why the princess wants to marry me. In fact, the princess has other better choices."

Princess Lin'an was stunned. "A better choice?" What better choice could she have?

"How is the Queen of Great Chu?"

"Mo Yuchen, get out of here!" Princess Lin'an was about to speak when Mo Suiyun's voice came from the entrance of Yu Garden. Mo Suiyun, wearing a dragon robe, rushed over with a sword in his hand and murderous aura.
