Chapter 460: People Might Die
Ling Xue held her sword with her arms crossed, while Mo Bai obediently lay at Ling Xue's feet, exposing his belly, looking like a worthless, ingratiating figure.
Most of the ornaments inside the house were broken on the floor.
"You...you...you...these things are worth a fortune." Mo Mo looked at the things on the ground with heartache. "How...how did you subdue it?"
Ling Xue asked coldly, "Do you want to change rooms?"
Mo Mo glanced at the room and Mo Bai lying there. Even a tiger couldn't beat this woman, so it was best for her to back down.
Mo Mo immediately put on a cheeky smile, "Of course I'll let you sleep here. I'm here to get my things."
"I'll have someone clean this room again in a bit, and I'll even change the bed for you. You can just rest well."
Ling Xue shot her a sharp look, and Mo Mo immediately changed her tune, saying, "No, no, it's my mouth that's wrong. You look just like the Heavenly Child Granny, forever young and beautiful."
As Mo Mo spoke, she quickly closed the door. If she had been a little slow, the silver needle would have pierced his head.
"You're the first person to dare call Ling Xue an old hag." Yu Hai gave her a thumbs up in admiration. "Back then, Prince Jin and Ling Xue became friends after a fight."
"In short, Ling Xue knew that Prince Jin was a prince, yet she still beat him until he was on the ground and begging for his life."
"In the end, in order to prevent his shameful affair from being publicized, Prince Jin endured the humiliation and became friends with Ling Xue."
"How did you know that?" Momo asked Yu Hai curiously.
Yu Hai laughed and said, "I naturally have the methods I know. In short, good luck to you."
Mo Mo watched Yu Hai's retreating figure, then glanced at her room door, and suddenly felt a chill on her neck. She reached up to touch it, hugged her arms, and quickly slipped away.
Mo Mo had just asked someone to prepare a new room for her to rest when the servant rushed in.
"Shopkeeper, you're here, you're here, you're here."
"Who's here?" Mo Mo stood up impatiently. "Didn't you see I was going to take a nap?"
"If you don't get enough rest, it can affect your skin."
Mo Mo touched her darkened cheeks. "Just treat them well now that they're here."
He then prepared to turn over and continue sleeping.
"The princess has arrived," the servant said in a low voice.
Which princess?
"Who else could it be but our master's princess?"
Mo Mo deftly flipped over, put on her shoes, got out of bed, and walked to the door. "Where is the Prince?"
"Your Highness was out, that's why I came to find you."
"I didn't dare go to the one over there," the servant said, pointing to Ling Xue's room.
Everyone had already witnessed what happened. She was the first person to make the shopkeeper lose face, so no one dared to go.
Mo Mo glanced in the direction of Ling Xue's room. "Let's go first."
"She doesn't know the princess, so going out won't do her any good."
"You old hag." Mo Mo muttered under her breath, one foot just stepping out of the door, a drawn sword resting against her neck.
Mo Mo was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look. Ling Xue was standing to the side, her face expressionless.
"No, big sister, what you're doing is going to hurt people, it could even kill them!" Mo Mo exclaimed angrily.
The servant behind him was so frightened that he shrank his neck and ran away in a flash.
Ling Xue said coldly, "This mouth will never speak again, and I don't mind making you shut your mouth forever."
Mo Mo quickly covered her mouth with her hand, "You... I was just joking with you."
"I'm not close enough to joke with you," Ling Xue said coldly.
"Alright, alright." Mo Mo gently pushed away the sword that was pressed against her neck. "I'm not going to tease you anymore. The princess is here, and the prince isn't here. I need to find a way to stall them."
Ling Xue naturally knew why she was here. With a flick of her wrist, the sword in her hand accurately pierced its sheath.
Mo Mo breathed a sigh of relief and ran away, with Ling Xue calmly following behind, sword in hand.
Upon arriving at the foyer,
The moment Mo Mo saw Jiang Wan Ning, she wanted nothing more than to rush up and hug her leg and cry. The food in Nan Li was indeed not as good as in Dong Ling; it was practically a culinary desert.
Let alone the princess, even he, who has traveled all over the country, found it hard to stand in Nanli.
Mo Mo suppressed her impulse and stepped forward to ask, "What would this esteemed guest like to eat?"
"Someone, go and clear out the best private room for this lady to sit in."
Mo Mo smiled and said to Jiang Wan Ning, "This lady, please come in."
Jiang Wan Ning was accompanied only by a maid, but the moment Jiang Wan Ning entered, Mo Mo noticed that several men had entered at the same time.
They sat scattered not far from Jiang Wan Ning.
Mo Mo then understood what Pei Yanchuan had gone to do. Yan Changfeng's absence must mean that the prince had found a way to get rid of him, but the only one who could hold Yan Changfeng back was the prince himself.
Otherwise, if the princess were to leave the palace, Yan Changfeng would definitely come in person.
The prince has done so much; I must seize this opportunity.
Seeing Mo Mo's excessive enthusiasm, Jiang Wan Ning originally wanted to leave, but smelling the hot pot, she swallowed and inexplicably lifted her foot and walked in the direction Mo Mo was pointing.
Just as she reached the door of the private room, the waiter opposite her 'accidentally' bumped into the maid behind Jiang Wan Ning while carrying tea.
The scalding hot tea splashed all over the little maid.
"Why are you in such a hurry? You're so impulsive!" Mo Mo scolded deliberately. "Hurry up and take this girl to change into some new clothes."
"No need," the maid said.
"You should change your clothes, you're all soaked," Mo Mo said kindly.
Jiang Wan Ning glanced at the tea stains on the maid's clothes, "Go."
Seeing that Jiang Wan Ning had spoken, the maidservant did not hesitate any longer and followed the waiter away.
Mo Mo greeted Jiang Wan Ning with a smile and led her inside.
As soon as Jiang Wan Ning sat down, a table full of food was immediately presented. "Wife, would you like to try some?" Mo Mo said cautiously.
Jiang Wan Ning frowned, "I haven't even said what I want to eat yet."
"And isn't this a hot pot restaurant? Why do you have other dishes?"
“It’s not available to others, but it’s definitely available to my wife,” Mo Mo said.
Seeing that Jiang Wan Ning hesitated to pick up her chopsticks, Mo Mo seemed to understand something, "Is my wife afraid it's poisoned?"
"With your medical skills, who would dare to poison you?"
As she spoke, Momo picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of the food from the plate, and proved that it was not poisonous.
"You know me?"
Jiang Wan Ning's voice was slightly cold.
"Not only do we know each other, we're quite familiar. My lady, do you know that Yan Changfeng was lying to you? In fact, you are..."
"lady."
Just as Mo Mo was about to speak, the little maid rushed in after changing her clothes.
Mo Mo exchanged a glance with the servant behind her, their eyes conveying a message: 'What's going on? Didn't I tell you to stop them?'
