But he was interrupted by Chu Ci.
Chu Ci stood up and looked at Liang Kui. She blinked her big eyes before speaking, "Don't worry, he came to see me. It has nothing to do with you."
Is it her family who came to pick her up? Liang Kui's tense muscles relaxed slightly as he thought subconsciously.
Then, an ambiguous chuckle escaped from the man's mouth, which seemed to be a sneer. His dark eyes swept around the area before he spoke slowly, "Your Majesty has found a good place with good feng shui, where you can relax and enjoy yourself. I see that your health has improved a lot."
Seeing the displeasure in his eyes, Chu Ci lowered her eyes, tilted her head and thought for a while, her eyes bright and a smile on her lips. This was the first time in Xiao Mokuang's memory that she saw the little emperor facing her like this, instead of that cowardly look of lowering his head and not wanting to even look at him.
She's been living well this month since I let her out? Has she changed a lot? Xiao Mokuang smiled, but there was a cold look in his eyes.
He had previously told the secret guards not to report any news about the little emperor, but unexpectedly, she gave him a surprise instead.
It’s such a headache. This is not his original intention of letting her out.
Then I heard Chu Cifang speaking slowly.
"I am naturally dull and cannot compare to the Grand Master, who cares deeply about the empire."
Feicui and Binghan beside him knew that the matter was exposed, and there was a hint of impatience in their eyes. They stood up and stood in front of Chu Ci.
The other people in the stronghold were stunned when they heard the conversation between the two. They stared blankly at Xiao Mokuang and Chu Ci. Their natural fear of imperial power made them shrink back involuntarily, trying to minimize their presence.
In this cool night breeze, fires lit up one after another all around, and everyone realized that the village had been surrounded by people without anyone knowing when.
It was at this time that the atmosphere of fear spread.
Chu Ci frowned and gave Feicui Binghan and Liang Kui a soothing look, then saw the person opposite her holding a folding fan in one hand and raising the other hand towards her.
There was a smile on his lips, but it didn't reach his eyes. He chuckled softly and said, "The flood in the Huai River has subsided. I am here to take Your Majesty away."
There was no need for Xiao Mo to urge her. Chu Ci walked towards him directly, and then her white and tender little hand suddenly rested on the hand that he had not had time to retract.
The cool and soft fingers on his palm made Xiao Mo stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Chu Ci to be so bold.
He narrowed his narrow black eyes, and looked at Chu Ci's face with a hint of suspicion. Then he sneered, tightened his hand instantly, and brought Chu Ci towards him.
He spoke softly, "Your Majesty, please do not play any more tricks. If you run away again, I will not be so sure that I can find Your Majesty safely and bring you back."
At first glance, these words sounded like concern, but they were actually a real threat, especially the hand that was holding her wrist, which was a bit too forceful.
Chu Ci used some clever strength to break free from his palm, blinking her big eyes to hide her mistake. She was so well-behaved and modestly admitted her mistake. "Taifu is right. I will definitely remember it."
Xiao Mo Kuang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the little girl standing in front of him, but he didn't care anymore. He just asked Gao Chu to take her back, and then looked at the people in the village who were completely confused.
