Mo Yecheng whispered, "Just hide behind me!"
Bai Hanxiao looked at his tall and broad back, and a sense of security she had never felt before surged in her heart.
"Since you're unwilling to part with your money, don't blame us for being rude! Go!"
Mo Yecheng rushed forward and four people surrounded him. Mo Yecheng just took a look and the five people started fighting.
Mo Yecheng had learned martial arts, so these people were no problem for him.
"Don't move!"
Mo Yecheng stopped and looked at the knife on Bai Hanxiao's neck. His pupils dilated and his face became very gloomy as he said, "Let her go and I'll give you the money!"
"Hahaha... Now I not only want money, I also want her!"
Mo Yecheng had a cold face. He glanced at the stone on the ground, pretending not to care. He picked it up with his foot, flew over, and hit the man on the forehead. Seeing this, Mo Yecheng pulled Bai Hanxiao into his arms.
Looking at the four people lying on the ground, he said coldly, "You bunch of unruly people, you dare to rob people on the street. This capital is not a place for you to do evil! If you meet me today, it will be your death!"
The four people were terrified and lay prone, saying fearfully, "Your Majesty, we are also trying to support our family... I have a mother and children at home... My whole family needs me to support them. Your Majesty, please have mercy on me. I will never dare to do this again... Never again!"
Mo Yecheng remained calm, still looking at them coldly. "To put it nicely, a bandit is someone who harms others for their own benefit. To put it bluntly, they are selfish and profit-driven. How can there be any reward without giving?"
"Your Majesty... We didn't mean to hurt anyone. We were wrong, we were truly wrong... Please, Your Majesty, have mercy..."
Bai Hanxiao pulled at her clothes and said, "...They are also very pitiful. Who would be willing to be a robber if they have a job?"
Mo Yecheng turned around and looked at her in surprise, "You are begging for them!"
“…”
Everyone in the harem is afraid of Bai Hanxiao. She is cold-blooded and ruthless. She will not ask for help or agree to anyone's request!
Mo Yecheng looked at the four people and sighed softly, "It was the Queen who saved your lives today, why don't you thank her?"
"Thank you, Queen... Thank you, Queen..."
Bai Hanxiao had no expression on his face and said calmly, "Let's go!"
"Yes, yes, yes... Thank you, Queen!"
Mo Yecheng looked at her and asked worriedly, "You weren't scared just now, were you?"
"...It's okay!" Bai Hanxiao looked at the ground without raising his eyelids.
“Why plead for them?”
"...I just think that everyone has unspeakable difficulties, so give them a chance!" Bai Hanxiao said, looking in the distance.
"Where do you want to go now?" Mo Yecheng looked at the deserted streets and asked.
"...Let's go to my brother's place! Bai Hanfu!" Bai Han said with a smile.
"Um!"
Baihan Mansion
"Your Majesty, Queen!" Bai Li bowed deeply.
"Li Shen, there's no need to go through these formalities outside! I'd like to trouble you to stay here for one night today!" Mo Yecheng said.
"Of course, I have plenty of rooms here!" Bai Lishen glanced at Bai Hanxiao and said, "Sister is leaving the palace today too."
"We don't have the Lantern Festival in Baihan Country. Your Majesty, please tell us and come and see it!" Bai Hanxiao smiled slightly.
"Yes, we don't have a Lantern Festival in Baihan Country, but we do have quite a few festivals... If you have time, Your Majesty can go visit Baihan Country!" Bai Lishen said, walking ahead and pointing at the house in front of him. "This is your side room. I'll find someone to clean it up later."
"Sorry for the trouble!" Mo Yecheng said politely.
"...I want to talk to Hanxiao alone for a few words. I hope Your Majesty doesn't mind?" Bai Lishen glanced at Bai Hanxiao and asked Mo Yecheng.
"……good!"
Bai Lishen led her to an open meadow, turned around and stretched out his hand.
Bai Hanxiao looked closely and said, "Why am I here with you... I clearly..."
"Don't you understand yet?"
“…”
"Take it, and don't give it to anyone else easily in the future!" Bai Lishen placed the pendant in her hand, looked at her, then at the lighted house in the distance, and said soothingly, "No matter what you do or think, you must know...you belong to him in this life!"
“…”
"There are many rooms in the wing, you can find another one... Go back!" Bai Lishen said, turning and leaving.
Bai Hanxiao reached out and pushed open the door, looked at Mo Yecheng who was standing inside reading a book, and closed the door.
"Why are you here!" Mo Yecheng was a little surprised.
Bai Hanxiao suddenly didn't know what to say. She lowered her head and said hesitantly, "I... I'll sleep here!"
"...Okay, I'll go somewhere else!" Mo Yecheng put the book back on the shelf, turned around, walked to the door, and opened it. Before he could even take a step, his wrist tightened. Bai Hanxiao grabbed his sleeve and said, "Wait a minute, you...you're sleeping here too!"
"..." Mo Yecheng didn't understand what she meant and stood stiffly at the door looking at her.
Bai Hanxiao stretched out her other hand and gently opened it. A white phoenix pendant came into Mo Yecheng's sight. Mo Yecheng looked at her and smiled. "Didn't you say that you had already given it away?"
"Well! I give it to you now!" Bai Hanxiao let go of his hand and said softly.
Mo Yecheng thought she was joking and smiled bitterly, "Okay, stop it. It's getting late. Let's get some rest!"
"I'm not kidding!" Bai Hanxiao raised her head and looked at him with a slightly red face.
Mo Yecheng's face was a little solemn, and he reached out to pick up the pendant.
"You are the emperor and I am the queen. We will spend the rest of our lives together... I don't want to live such a tiring life anymore!" Bai Hanxiao said.
Mo Yecheng couldn't believe it. What did this mean? Was she finally going to be with him?
"Now that I've given you the pendant, don't give it back to me!"
I don't want to be rejected again!
After Bai Hanxiao finished speaking, she reached out and took off her outermost piece of clothing, walked in front of him, and took off the second piece as well.
Mo Yecheng grabbed her hand that was about to take off the third piece of clothing, lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't force yourself! I can wait until the day you are willing..." After that, he turned and left the room.
Bai Hanxiao suddenly felt a little empty in his heart and had a bitter smile on his face.
You forced me when I didn't want to, and now that I'm willing, you push me away! Mo Yecheng, what on earth do you want to do!
Mo Yecheng stood under the tree outside the door, took a deep breath, looked at the white pendant in his hand, suddenly laughed, and held the pendant tightly in his hand.
Hanxiao, I can wait for you until you change your mind and completely forget the person in your heart!

Bridgeside
Ma Qingyi looked at the lanterns in the water, smiled at Qingshi and said, "Each lantern represents a wish, a blessing, spoken to the gods... With so many wishes, do you think the gods can fulfill them all?"
"I don't know. I only know that when I was in trouble, I prayed to God, but he never gave me any hope!" Qingshi said with a cold look.
