After saying that, Mo Beichen put the Nine-Turned Exquisite Bracelet on Yun Qingluo's wrist. Yun Qingluo felt something on her wrist and looked down in shock, "Achen, isn't this Mother Consort's favorite? You're giving it to me?"
"Hmm, does Luo Luo like it?" Mo Beichen pulled her to sit on his lap, wrapped his arms around Yun Qingluo's waist, and nibbled on Yun Qingluo's earlobe.
Yun Qingluo's face flushed red instantly.
"Ah Chen, stop fooling around, we're outside." Even though there was no one on the street, it was still too embarrassing.
"Luo Luo..." Mo Beichen looked at Yun Qingluo's pink earlobes and fair neck, his voice low and husky.
Yun Qingluo sensed that something was wrong with Mo Beichen and cursed him as a scoundrel in her heart.
He turned and begged for mercy, "Ah Chen, I'm hungry."
Looking at Yun Qingluo's bright and beautiful pale pink face, Mo Beichen chuckled softly, "I'm hungry too."
Yun Qingluo understood what Mo Beichen meant and glared at him with her beautiful eyes.
Mo Beichen sensed Yun Qingluo's anger and dared not provoke her any further.
Reluctantly releasing Yun Qingluo's waist, he helped her up and held her hand tightly, then calmly instructed, "Mofeng, notify the kitchen."
Mo Feng, having eaten a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), accepted the order and withdrew.
But he was very puzzled. Had the princess really changed for the better, or was she deceiving the prince?
After dinner, Mo Beichen, unusually, didn't go to the study but went back to his room.
"By the way, A-Chen, what did the Emperor say to you when you went to the palace to express your gratitude?" Yun Qingluo was preparing medicine in the pharmacy, while Mo Beichen propped his head up and watched.
A cold glint flashed in Mo Beichen's eyes. Seeing this, Yun Qingluo put down what she was holding, sat down next to Mo Beichen, and said gently, "Achen, please tell me?"
Mo Beichen didn't want to tell Yun Qingluo, fearing she would worry, but seeing her insistence on asking, he nodded in agreement.
He will tell Luo Luo whatever she wants to know.
"His Majesty has ordered me to go to the southwest to suppress bandits," Mo Beichen said in a deep voice.
Yun Qingluo exclaimed in shock, “What? The southwest is an uneven terrain, and there’s a snow disaster going on right now. Going into the mountains to suppress bandits at this time is practically asking for your life!”
Seeing the worry and anger in Yun Qingluo's eyes, Mo Beichen felt a warmth in his heart and whispered, "Luo Luo, are you worried about me?"
Looking at Mo Beichen's incredulous expression, Yun Qingluo took the initiative to get up and sit in Mo Beichen's arms, causing Mo Beichen's body to stiffen abruptly.
Yun Qingluo hugged Mo Beichen tightly around the waist, glaring at him angrily, "Achen is my husband, of course I'm worried."
After saying that, she affectionately nuzzled Mo Beichen's forehead and pouted, "Achen, can we not go?"
He has a leg ailment and can only travel in a wheelchair. The journey to the southwest is long, and whether he can arrive safely is a problem.
Upon hearing this, Mo Beichen said in a low voice, "The imperial decree will be issued soon. If Luo Luo doesn't want me to go, then I will refuse."
Yun Qingluo leaned against Mo Beichen's chest, and looked up at him upon hearing this, "Did A-Chen originally plan to go to the southwest?"
A determined glint appeared in Mo Beichen's eyes, and he chuckled softly, saying, "My Luoluo is indeed clever."
Yun Qinglu lowered her head and pondered for a while before slowly speaking, "Is it because of the snow disaster in the southwest and the banditry that people are suffering?"
Mo Beichen nodded, wrapped his arms around Yun Qingluo's waist, buried his head in the crook of Yun Qingluo's neck and took a deep breath, saying in a muffled voice, "Yes, the people are in danger, they need the Regent."
Yun Qingluo understood; in his previous life, Mo Beichen was a regent beloved by the people.
The people of Tianmo are fortunate to have such a regent who cares deeply for his people.
No wonder the regent, despite his disability, remained a figure of faith for the people, and no wonder the emperor was so wary of him.
“Then I’ll go to the southwest with you.” Yun Qingluo slowly pushed Mo Beichen away, looking firmly into his eyes as she spoke.
"No, it's too dangerous." Mo Beichen frowned and refused without even thinking.
"I will take you to the General's Mansion. You stay home and wait for me to come back." Mo Beichen held Yun Qingluo tightly, wanting to meld her into his very bones.
Yun Qinglu shook her head, pitifully tugging at Mo Beichen's sleeve, and said, "Even if you don't take me, I will secretly go to find you myself. Can you bear to let me chase after you alone?"
Mo Beichen's pupils contracted slightly, his eyes dark and unyielding, his gaze filled with helplessness. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Luo Luo... how can I bear to let go when you call me like this?"
Yun Qingluo smiled and leaned close to kiss Mo Beichen's thin lips, "Then Achen, hold on tight and don't let go."
"Luo Luo herself said it." Mo Beichen suppressed the possessiveness and morbid obsession that were raging inside him.
Luo Luo, you said that yourself.
I will never let go, no matter how high the heavens or how low the hells.
"Even if mountains crumble and the heavens and earth unite, I will never part from you." Yun Qingluo spoke with firm conviction, each word uttered with unwavering conviction.
Mo Beichen's body trembled suddenly, his dark eyes surged with ecstasy, "Luo Luo, you must remember what you said today."
After saying that, he hugged Yun Qingluo's waist tightly and lowered his head to search for that fragrance.
"Ah Chen, um." Yun Qinglu hooked her arms around Mo Beichen's neck and tilted her head back to accept Mo Beichen's advances.
Seeing this, Mo Beichen's eyes lit up with joy, and he deepened the kiss.
The snow outside the window was falling even harder.
"Ah Chen, um..."
Before Yun Qingluo could finish speaking, her mouth was covered again.
Under the moonlight outside the window, snow weighed down the branches, teetering precariously.
Yun Qingluo felt completely weak and couldn't even remember when she got back to bed.
The next day, Yun Qingluo woke up to find the sun already high in the sky.
"hiss."
Yun Qingluo moved slightly, her whole body felt weak and sore, as if she had been disassembled and reassembled.
That scoundrel is too domineering in this matter; no amount of begging will work.
Hearing the noise, Yun Tao came in carrying water. "Your Highness, you're awake?"
Ignoring her aches and pains, Yun Qingluo got up and instructed, "Yun Tao, I don't have time to go back to Divine Doctor Valley. I'll write a letter, and you can send it to Divine Doctor Valley and ask Yun Ju to find some medicinal herbs for me. It must be done quickly."
"Why is Your Highness in such a hurry? Has something happened?" Yun Tao asked worriedly when she saw Yun Qingluo's sudden anxious expression.
Yun Qingluo told Yun Tao what happened last night. Yun Tao was furious and muttered, "The Emperor is such a scoundrel! Even with the Prince in this state, he still won't let him go."
"Alright, go and get ready," Yun Qingluo said helplessly to Yun Tao as she finished writing the letter while Yun Tao was criticizing the emperor's heartlessness.
After having breakfast, Yun Qingluo went into the pharmacy to revise the prescription for Mo Beichen.
It was dark when Yun Qingluo finally came out of the pharmacy.
Stretching and touching her empty stomach, Yun Qingluo frowned. Why hadn't Achen returned yet?
He would usually be back by now to have dinner with me.
Yun Qingluo walked to the front yard and just then Mo Yu hurriedly called out to her with a package in his hand.
"Mo Yu, where is the Prince?"
Mo Yu froze. Oh no, he'd been discovered.
Seeing that Mo Yu was not speaking, Yun Qingluo became anxious. Could it be that something had happened to A-Chen?
"To be honest," Yun Qingluo said coldly, her face expressionless, her voice sharp, making Mo Yu feel as if she were seeing Mo Beichen.
