Chapter 103 I want to drink with Yueyue again!
Qian Duoduo suddenly said, "Yueyue, can I call you Yueyue from now on?" There was a hint of intimacy and expectation in her tone.
Lan Xiyue's eyes flickered when she heard this: "Okay, I'll call you Duoduo from now on."
Qian Duoduo nodded with satisfaction, her eyes sparkling with sincerity: "Well, from now on you will be my good sister, Yueyue. You don't know that I don't have any good sisters. You will be my only good sister from now on. Come, cheers to our friendship."
"Cheers." Lan Xiyue raised her glass and gently clinked it with Qian Duoduo's.
Prince Regent's Palace
In the study, Mo Yifan sat across from Mo Liyuan and said jokingly, "Uncle, the Crown Prince was beaten so badly, and the investigation has yet to yield any results. My father suspects you were the one who did it. I'm very curious, Uncle, was it you who did it?"
Mo Liyuan sat upright at the desk with deep eyes. He just glanced at Mo Yifan lightly without saying a word.
This silence only made Mo Yifan more confused. He exclaimed, "No way, little uncle, did you really do this? How did the prince offend you?"
Tianyi stood aside and explained to Mo Yifan in a low voice: "Third Prince, the matter of the Crown Prince being beaten has nothing to do with the master."
"Ah?" Mo Yifan scratched his head upon hearing this, bewildered. "If it wasn't the young uncle, then who on earth had the guts to attack the Crown Prince? Now the Crown Prince is still lying in the East Palace, groaning and moaning. It's truly astonishing!"
At this moment, Lan Xiyue's figure appeared in Mo Liyuan's mind.
Her voice, smile, and every move made him inexplicably happy.
Could it be her? Did she really no longer like Crown Prince Mo Yufeng?
This thought flashed through his mind, causing a barely perceptible smile to appear on the corner of Mo Liyuan's mouth.
Seeing that Mo Liyuan remained silent, Mo Yifan changed the subject and said, "Oh right, little uncle, the emperor asked you to go to Mogu Mountain to suppress the bandits. Guandu County reported that the bandits there are becoming increasingly rampant and have threatened the peace of the surrounding people.
"My father has previously sent troops from the surrounding areas to suppress the bandits, but without exception, they have been unsuccessful. Those bandits are very cunning. Every time the troops go to encircle them, they hide deep in the Demon Valley Mountain. The Demon Valley Mountain is surrounded by miasma and is rife with poisonous beasts. Countless soldiers have been killed or wounded."
Mo Liyuan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound.
He pondered for a long time before slowly speaking: "Tianyi, send someone to Wujia Village to dig out Wu Jun's eyes."
When these words came out, Tianyi couldn't help but be stunned.
He looked up at Mo Liyuan, only to see Mo Liyuan glance at him coldly, "Is there a problem? Huh?"
Tianyi reacted quickly and shook his head, saying, "No... no problem."
Tianyi turned and walked out of the study, waved his hand, and immediately a secret guard appeared in front of him.
Tianyi whispered a few words to him, and the secret guard disappeared like a ghost.
Tianyi looked at the direction where the secret guard left, and secretly complained: Don’t stare at Miss Lan casually in the future, or you might lose your eyeballs.
Suddenly, Tianyi thought of the assassination incident on the cruise ship that day.
At that time, he grabbed Lan Xiyue's sleeve and left. If his master knew about this, would he lose his hand? The more Tianyi thought about it, the more his scalp tingled, and he felt a little depressed.
He walked into the house with his head hung.
Mo Yifan's brows were furrowed, his eyes filled with confusion. He asked softly, "Little Uncle, who exactly is that Wu Jun?"
Mo Liyuan remained silent.
Seeing this scene, Mo Yifan's curiosity grew even more intense. Just as Tianyi entered the room, he quickly stood up, walked over to Tianyi, and whispered, "Tianyi, who exactly is Wu Jun? Why did the young uncle want to take his eyes?"
Tianyi had a complicated expression. Seeing that his master didn't look at them, he hesitated for a moment and finally whispered a few words.
Mo Yifan's face suddenly changed when he heard this. He swallowed his saliva and laughed dryly, "Haha, little uncle, you are really getting deeper and deeper into trouble."
After saying this, he involuntarily glanced at Mo Liyuan. Mo Liyuan raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Tianyi coldly, and spat out one word: "Too much talk!"
Tian Yi was startled and lowered his head even lower, as if to bury it in his chest.
Just when the atmosphere in the house was extremely solemn, a carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew in, breaking the dullness.
Tianyi quickly stepped forward, caught the pigeon with skillful techniques, gently took the letter off its leg, and handed it over respectfully.
Mo Liyuan took the letter and slowly unfolded it. His deep eyes wandered between the lines, a little lost in thought.
Seeing this, Mo Yifan couldn't suppress his curiosity and stepped forward to take a look. Before he could see clearly, Mo Liyuan suddenly clenched his fist, and the letter paper instantly turned into pieces and scattered all over the floor.
Mo Yifan curled his lips, full of confusion: "Little Uncle, what is written in the letter?"
"It's none of your business, stop talking."
"Uh..." Mo Yifan looked at Tianyi, Tianyi lowered his head, and said, "Third Prince, don't look at me. I have something to say about Miss Lan, but I'm afraid you will pull out my tongue."
Mo Yifan coughed lightly, breaking the silence in the room. "Well, little uncle, what are your thoughts on suppressing the bandits in Mogu Mountain?"
Mo Liyuan sat at the desk, his face stern and his eyes deep.
"It is indeed time for the bandits of Demon Valley Mountain to disappear."
Mo Yufan frowned slightly upon hearing this. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still couldn't help but ask, "Then, little uncle, are you planning to go to Guandu County in person?"
"Um!"
Mo Yifan was very puzzled. He looked at Mo Liyuan with confusion in his eyes.
"Little Uncle, although the bandits of Demon Valley Mountain are extremely cunning, isn't it a bit too much for Father to send you to suppress them? After all, it seems a bit of a waste of your talent to suppress bandits with your status."
Upon hearing this, Mo Liyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. There was both sarcasm and endless meaning hidden in that smile.
"Oh, my royal brother's intention is probably far more than that."
Upon hearing this, Mo Yifan couldn't help but open his mouth wide, feeling indescribably horrified.
Could it be that his father really intended to take this opportunity to attack the young uncle? As soon as this thought came to his mind, he suppressed it fiercely.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the study became subtle.
At the same time, in the private room of Tianxiang Restaurant, Lan Xiyue and Qian Duoduo felt that they had met too late. They clinked glasses and laughed, as if they had endless words to say and endless friendship to express.
The two of them became more and more interested as they talked, and drank more and more, completely ignoring the anxious dissuasion of Chuxia and Xiaohong.
Chu Xia bit her red lips lightly, her eyes full of worry: "Miss, you have already drunk a lot. If you drink more, I am afraid you will get drunk."
Xiao Hong was also so anxious that she stamped her feet: "Yes, Miss, you can't drink anymore."
Qian Duoduo waved her hand: "I'm not drunk. I'm happy today. Yueyue, let's drink!"
"good!"
Chuxia and Xiaohong looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
Xiaohong sighed lightly, stood up and called the waiter to settle the bill.
Qian Duoduo took the wine jug and poured wine: "Huh? No more wine, Xiaohong... ask the waiter to bring some wine."
"Miss, let's not drink today. Come, Xiaohong will help you."
"No, I want to drink with Yueyue!"
Xiaohong gave Chuxia a look, and Chuxia hurriedly helped Lan Xiyue up. Lan Xiyue's head was dizzy and she was much quieter than Qian Duoduo.
Xiaohong coaxed and deceived her young lady with great effort and helped her up, and she staggered out of Tianxiang Restaurant.
In comparison, it was much easier for Chu Xia to support Lan Xiyue.
