She blinked her eyes, perhaps a little slow due to the sleepiness. She raised her white and tender hands and pressed her temples. "Why did the Master come out too?"
"Your Majesty has left, and there is no point for me to stay here." Lord Ferocious Beast still had a gentle smile on his face, but there was a hint of ferocity in his eyes as he looked at the young boy opposite him. He spoke slowly.
He felt the warmth of Chu Ci rubbing against his body, and the way she tilted her little head and looked at him.
The subtle dissatisfaction in his heart subsided a lot. His fingertips rubbed Chu Ci's wrist, but he didn't let go and just held it.
'Xiao Mo's love value +4, currently 72.'
Wu Qiu was only an eighteen-year-old boy after all. He was already nervous when he saw Chu Ci, and then he met the Grand Tutor who was said to be very capable. Moreover, this was their first meeting, and he was full of hostility towards him.
Wu Qiu only felt the hairs on his body stand up, and when he was swept by that gaze, he couldn't help but feel a desire to run away.
"The descendants educated by Lord Wu are all elegant and graceful, and they are all pillars of our dynasty. Even at this age, they have the demeanor of gentlemen." The Grand Tutor clasped Chu Ci with one hand, looked up at Wu Qiu, and said slowly with a smile.
"Your Excellency the Grand Tutor, your praise is too much. I am unworthy of it." Even if Wu Qiu was stupid, he could sense that the ferocious beast Feng Xiao, who could make things happen with a wave of his hand, was dissatisfied with him. He lowered his head and dared not say a word. His originally rosy face turned pale with fear.
Xiao Mo Kuang looked at it and laughed coldly. No matter how delicate this little sapling, which was protected by its elders, grew, how could it be taller than him?
How dare he have the audacity to covet Empress Feng Xiao? Where did he get the courage from?
As he thought about this, he was slightly stunned. He lowered his head to look at the little girl who was leaning on his chest so obediently. Although she was called obedient, in fact, she probably just leaned on him because she felt warm on his body. He frowned slightly at his own thoughts.
Not bothering to pay attention to Wu Qiu over there, Xiao Mo Kuang directly pulled Chu Ci towards Chu Ci's palace.
Watching the two people walk away, Wu Qiucai, with a pale face, breathed a sigh of relief while holding the lantern. It was a cold day and his back was wet with cold sweat. Now that the wind blew, he felt a little chilly.
He raised his hand and looked at his trembling fingertips, and a bitter smile appeared on his handsome and fair face.
When Xiao Mokuang launched the rebellion, he was only sixteen years old and had not yet officially come into contact with the court. He only learned many things from his elders at home or from rumors circulating outside.
It was said that the hall was covered in blood and the strong smell of blood was nauseating. Even after it was cleaned up, the smell of blood lingered in the hall for seven days before it dissipated.
The capital was also in turmoil. The Grand Tutor had already held the command of the capital's guards in his own hands for several years. Even the former important officials in the court disappeared that night. Everyone in the court was in danger, and even my father and grandfather were very cautious during that time.
It was also the first time that his movements were restricted, and he saw his grandfather giving in.
Although he had never met Xiao Mokuang formally before, he had seen Xiao Mokuang from afar a long time ago when he was still the Prince's tutor.
