The jade ruyi in Mo Yan's hand shattered on the ground. Looking at Wan Ge in front of him, he seemed unable to believe what she had just said.
Wan Ge felt a pang of heartache looking at him, but they had to go back: "I'm sorry, I know you've put a lot of effort into preparing for our wedding, but we have to go back."
…
Wan Ge was taking a nap when she suddenly heard Ruan Ruan's very anxious voice.
She was told that the crown prince was plotting a rebellion and that her life was in danger, so she needed to go back to save him.
Mo Yi is still the main male protagonist. If he were to die like this, the world would collapse.
Wan Ge also thought that if Mo Yi was still the male lead, then he definitely wouldn't die easily.
But Ruan Ruan told her that the person standing on the opposite side of the male lead was the female lead, and that the male lead was accused of treason precisely because he was the villain.
If they don't go back, the male protagonist might really be doomed.
"We're getting married soon, the day after tomorrow is our wedding day." Mo Yan's eyes immediately reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
“I know, I know. I’m so sorry, but if we don’t go back, the Crown Prince will die. He’s your brother, he loved you so much, and he was once the brother you respected most. Do you really want to just watch him die?” Although they had become “love rivals” now, the Crown Prince had once been very good to him.
Mo Yan bit her lip and remained silent for a long time before finally replying, "Okay, let's go back."
Wan Ge kissed him on the lips: "I will make it up to you, and our wedding will definitely take place."
"I believe you." Mo Yan said these four words, but his heart was uneasy.
…
They traveled day and night at breakneck speed, but it still took them several days to finally return to the capital.
On the way back, I had already heard that Mo Yi had been imprisoned for plotting a rebellion and would be executed soon.
They went straight back to the palace gate, and the guards, seeing that it was Mo Yan, quickly opened the gate and let them into the palace.
They were originally on their way to find the emperor, but they encountered him on the way.
The emperor looked at his youngest son with some surprise, as if he hadn't expected him to appear before him again.
"Xiao Yan, thank goodness you're alright!" The emperor reached out and pinched himself again, as if to see if he was dreaming.
The next second, Mo Yan knelt down in front of the emperor: "Father, those people you convicted of my brother are all mine."
"What?" The emperor hadn't recovered from his joy when he suddenly heard his youngest son say this.
"The Dark Feather Token and the Wind and Rain Pavilion were all given to my elder brother by me. I was the one who cultivated his power outside." Mo Yan confessed directly to the other party.
He just didn't expect that his elder brother would admit it himself and not reveal it to their father.
It was precisely because he didn't speak up that his father thought he was plotting a rebellion and that's why he was convicted.
"You!" The emperor hadn't expected this. No, how could it be like this? Mo Yan had grown up in the deep palace and didn't have any hobbies except painting and studying poetry.
How could someone like him possibly cultivate power outside? "You must not lie to me to save your brother."
"I did not lie to Father Emperor. What I said is the truth. Moreover, didn't Father Emperor tell me that if I cannot be a ruler, I must have the ability to protect myself?" Mo Yan met the emperor's gaze directly and explained why he had been secretly cultivating his own power.
