"Meow—" Lu Qingyan meowed, dodging Mo Yunjing's hand, and then obediently lay there, no longer being naughty.
With the little one gone to avoid causing trouble, Mo Yunjing quickly finished processing the documents. Although it was much more efficient than usual, the sun was already setting.
Mo Yunjing had originally planned to take the cat to dinner, but at that moment Mo Er came to report that the Fifth Elder was requesting an audience. So, he sent Mo Yin to accompany Lu Qingyan.
Upon not seeing the person, Lu Qingyan immediately started gossiping and chatting with Mo Yin, asking her about the so-called "fiancée of Mo Yunjing".
Subconsciously, she didn't quite believe that Mo Yunjing really had such a fiancée.
Mo Yin was considered a confidante of Mo Yunjing, and knew a little about some old stories. Moreover, these weren't exactly secrets that couldn't be told to others, so she revealed what she knew.
“Miss Fei Meng is not actually the master’s fiancée; she has no relationship with the master.”
"Could there be some other reason why she made that decision so decisively?" It couldn't be that the mother wolf had gone mad and was talking nonsense here, could it?
Lu Qingyan had no idea that her unconscious grumbling had actually guessed the truth.
Mo Yin nodded: "There are indeed some reasons. Back then, when Master had just ascended the throne, another competitor was not satisfied and secretly set up an ambush to assassinate him."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingyan secretly speculated that someone like Mo Yunjing couldn't possibly be unprepared.
Sure enough, Mo Yin continued, "Master had already guessed that he would make a move and had made preparations. However, some of his subordinates who were not particularly capable were unaware of this. One of them actually thought that Master was going to be in danger and sacrificed himself to block an ice arrow for Master."
Speaking of this, Mo Yin was also annoyed.
"With Master's abilities, that arrow couldn't have hurt him at all, but someone just had to be presumptuous and even lost their life for it. If it had been someone truly capable who could have blocked the arrow, they would have been fine, but with his negligible spiritual power, going up there was no different from suicide. In the end, he died, leaving Master with a mess. Before he died, he even said that Master shouldn't worry about his life-saving grace, but only hoped that Master would take care of his daughter out of consideration for her mother."
"Meow--" Is that person's daughter the woman who came to see Mo Yunjing today and claimed to be Mo Yunjing's fiancée?
"It's her. Her name is Fei Meng. It's said that her mother and the master's mother are related by blood. But this fiancée thing is pure nonsense. I remember that Fei Meng was already an orphan at that time. Although she was older than the master, she was sickly since childhood and looked rather delicate. She needed someone to take care of her. That's why the master took her in. But ever since she met the master, she has been obsessed with him, unable to eat or sleep. She knows that her father died to 'save' the master and that he asked the master to take care of her before he died. I don't know what she was thinking, but she started spreading rumors outside that the master is her fiancé."
Lu Qingyan was dumbfounded. She had never seen such a shameless person before.
"Meow--" Did Mo Yunjing not care about this?
"The master had people persuade her several times, and he himself tried to persuade her once. But Miss Feimeng was like she was possessed, insisting that the master was her fiancé."
