Chapter 100: Red Line



Chapter 100 Pulling the Red Line

Hearing the sudden sound, An Yunxi and Wen Lingrou in the room immediately stood up and pushed open the door.

They saw a figure standing outside the door in a rather wolfish manner, and the ground was full of porcelain fragments.

An Yunxi showed a surprised expression on her face, and her eyes fell on Mo Qiao.

She asked in confusion: "Miss Mo, what are you doing?"

Mo Qiao's face was a little embarrassed.

"I just want to serve tea to the young lady and the guests."

She saw a maid walking this way on the road, so she took the tray from the other party and prepared to deliver it herself.

She did this to please An Yunxi and reduce her hostility towards her.

Unexpectedly, she heard the conversation between the two people in the room just as she walked to the door.

Those words were like thunder that made her mind go blank, so she accidentally dropped the teacup.

She quietly raised her eyes and glanced at Wen Lingrou. She felt that the woman in front of her was full of noble aura. She could not learn the temperament of a lady from a noble family in her bones.

Someone not far away heard the movement here and looked over.

An Yunqing strode over and saw Mo Qiao bending down to pick up the debris on the ground, and quickly grabbed her wrist.

"Don't touch it, it's easy to get hurt."

Mo Qiao said helplessly: "Brother An, it's all my fault for being clumsy and causing trouble for everyone. I'll clean it up myself."

An Yunxi lowered her eyes slightly, and her heart instantly understood.

It seems that when she and Wen Lingrou were talking in the room, Mo Qiao stood at the door and secretly listened.

So, when she heard her say that she wanted to introduce her brother to Wen Lingrou, she was excited and threw the teacup.

"Miss Mo, there are many maids and servants in the general's mansion. We don't need to bother you, a guest, to serve tea and water. Who gave you the tea and water? Let her go back and receive the punishment!"

Mo Qiao heard this, and a panic flashed across her eyes. She lowered her head and said, "Miss, calm down. Don't involve innocent people. I feel that I live here for no reason. I can't do nothing and have nothing to do with others."

An Yunqing helped her up and sighed slightly.

"Mo Qiao, go back to your room and rest first. I will ask someone to clean up here."

Mo Qiao heard this, and when he looked at An Yunqing sideways, his eyes were more moved.

"Brother An, am I useless? I can't do anything except fighting."

Mo Qiao suddenly turned his head and asked An Yunqing in front of everyone with red eyes.

An Yunqing spoke, his voice calm and steady: "No."

An Yunxi interrupted the two: "Brother, you should also take care of Miss Mo. If outsiders see that our General's Mansion actually let a guest serve tea and water, they will think that the people in the General's Mansion do not know etiquette."

Mo Qiao tangled his fingers together and dared not say a word.

Wen Lingrou stood behind An Yunxi. She could see that this Miss Mo might have some close relationship with An Yunqing.

An Yunqing was mature and stable, with a very handsome appearance and a good figure. In the capital, many daughters of aristocratic families had a good impression of him. It was a pity that An Yunqing had been staying in the barracks for many years and had no intention of getting married.

But I didn't expect that he already had someone in his heart

Wen Lingrou pursed her lips, but said nothing, but her eyes were obviously a little emotional.

However, as the daughter of the loyal and brave Marquis's mansion, and the princess of the current dynasty, she didn't need to compete with another woman for a man.

An Yunqing told Mo Qiao: "You don't have to do this kind of thing in the mansion in the future."

"But"

Mo Qiao wanted to explain, but after looking at An Yunqing's eyes, he could only lower his head and answer honestly.

"I know, Brother An."

Wen Lingrou walked out from behind An Yunxi and saluted An Yunqing slightly.

"I have met Major General An."

An Yunqing heard this and hurriedly returned the salute.

"This general greets the princess."

Wen Lingrou's status is noble, even ordinary girls from noble families can't compare to her.

Her every move was full of indescribable elegance.

Compared to her, Mo Qiao standing beside him was like an ordinary wild flower.

Unfortunately, An Yunqing never looked at people's status and appearance.

"I still have something to do, so I won't bother the princess and my younger sister. You can do whatever you want in the mansion. I'll take my leave."

After he saluted, he calmly grabbed Mo Qiao's wrist, then turned and left.

Mo Qiao felt the warmth on his wrist, and his cheeks turned red.

Even when facing a woman like Wen Lingrou, An Yunqing was unmoved, and just liked to be with her.

This time, she won!

An Yunxi watched the two of them go away, then turned around and glanced at Wen Lingrou.

Then she saw that her eyes were always fixed on the backs of the two, and her lips pursed slightly.

Seeing this scene, An Yunxi smiled slightly, and she patted her arm gently.

"Why, you like my elder brother?"

Wen Lingrou glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't let you off!"

"I won't say it anymore,"

An Yunxi smiled, she was really joking.

Wen Lingrou immediately changed the subject.

Then she pulled her to comfort her: "Don't be too sad about your father's death"

An Yunxi: ""

Which eye of Wen Lingrou saw that she was sad?

The funeral in the General's Mansion lasted for several days.

On the day of the funeral, the faces of the An family were full of sorrow and true feelings.

At the time of the burial, Mrs. Du looked at the coffin with indifference.

No one else knew that the real An Qing in the coffin was still in the mass grave. His body had been eaten by snakes, insects and ants, and was blown by the cold wind alone.

There was not even a straw mat.

His skin and flesh were rotten, and no one could recognize his face

. Because the emperor was seriously ill, Ling Fengxun, the regent king, was even busier. He had been staying in the palace these days.

On the day of the funeral of General An, Yingfeng suddenly appeared outside An Yunxi's door.

"Princess, there is a letter."

An Yunxi immediately took the letter and gently unfolded it.

In the letter, everything about Mo Qiao's life was described in detail.

Everything that could be found out, big or small, was recorded on it.

"Mo Qiao, 20 years old, joined the army five years ago and became a deputy general in the military camp outside the city."

In the military camp that trains soldiers, the deputy general is just a military title, and it is not a formal official position.

But it is not easy for a civilian to climb to this position in such a short time.

An Yunxi continued to read.

Her eyes fell on the introduction of Mo Qiao's family.

"She also has a twin brother named Mo Qing, who is greedy and likes gambling, and looks very similar to her."

From the contact with Mo Qiao these days, although he is a little scheming, he does not seem to be the kind of person who would stab in the back.

If she didn't do that thing in the previous life, it must be related to her.

An Yunxi tapped the corner of the letter with her finger and thought for a moment.

"Yingfeng, send someone to keep an eye on this man named Mo Qing and see who he often contacts."

"Yes, princess."

An Yunxi suddenly stood up and walked out of the room, knocking on the door where Mo Qiao was.

"It's me, I have something to say to Miss Mo."
