Chapter 289 Let’s go to my attic and serve me well!
In the Regent's Palace, beside the lotus pond, sitting on a rattan chair, Mo Liyuan stood elegantly, holding a military book in his hand.
The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence. Mo Yifan ran over breathlessly, his face full of anxiety: "Oh no, little uncle, something terrible has happened!"
Tianyi, standing by, smiled faintly and jokingly said, "Third Prince, you need to exercise your body. Why are you panting so hard? My master is fine."
Mo Yifan had no time to pay attention to Tianyi's teasing. He immediately moved closer to Mo Liyuan and was about to speak.
Just at this moment, the fishing rod by the pond moved slightly. Mo Liyuan's eyes focused, he put down the military book, and lifted it gently. A huge grass carp jumped out of the water.
Seeing this, Mo Yifan was even more anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, and he was running around in circles: "Little uncle, the situation is urgent, and you still have the mind to fish? Let me tell you, I was drinking tea in Youxiang Tower just now, and I saw my aunt being kidnapped!
I wanted to take action, but the thief was extremely arrogant and didn't take me seriously at all. I was afraid that he would hurt my aunt, so I didn't dare to act rashly. I was worried about my aunt's safety and had the secret guards follow her secretly, but I was still worried, so I came to the little uncle to be safe.
Tianyi's eyes widened in shock. "How dare someone kidnap the princess?"
Mo Liyuan seemed calm. He took the hook out of the fish's mouth and threw the fish back into the lotus pond without hesitation.
Mo Yifan was speechless when he saw this scene. "Little uncle, are you bored with this fishing and releasing behavior? No, these are not the main points. The main point is that my aunt has been kidnapped! Little uncle, are you even listening to me?"
Mo Liyuan's expression was indifferent, but a hint of disdain was revealed in his tone: "A royal princess is so immoral on a daily basis. Now it's time for her to suffer."
Mo Yifan was stunned when he heard this and exclaimed, "Ah? Little uncle, are you saying you don't want to take care of it anymore?"
Mo Liyuan didn't say anything more. He just picked up the handkerchief beside him, wiped his hands, then jumped and disappeared on the spot.
Tianyi looked at Mo Yifan, who was still standing there in a daze, and urged him, "Third Prince, why are you still standing there? The master has already gone to rescue them, why don't you hurry up and catch up?"
Mo Yifan suddenly realized and quickly followed Tianyi's footsteps, still muttering in his heart: "Little Uncle said that, I thought he really didn't care."
Elsewhere, Lan Xiyue was worried about how to get rid of the hot potato she was holding—Princess Wenshu. She sensed someone following her, and she secretly thought it must be a secret guard sent by that idiot Mo Yifan. If Mo Liyuan was also alerted, it would be troublesome.
When they reached a remote alley, Lan Xiyue decisively shook off Princess Wenshu, pulled Qian Duoduo, used her lightness skills, and jumped up.
Qian Duoduo was hugged by Lan Xiyue as they sped along, terrified: "Ah... Yueyue, I'm scared!"
Lan Xiyue quickly covered Qian Duoduo's mouth and comforted him softly: "Be good, don't be afraid, close your eyes, I'm here."
Qian Duoduo's heart was beating like a drum, and he was crying for help in his heart, but he could only hug Lan Xiyue's waist tightly with his hands.
Lan Xiyue was light and agile, and with her lightness skills, she turned around and finally managed to get rid of the tail behind her and returned safely to the Lan Mansion.
After landing safely, she let go of Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo stumbled, his face pale as paper. He patted his chest with both hands and cried, "Oh! Yueyue, you scared me to death, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. How come you can do Qinggong?"
Lan Xiyue rolled her eyes upon hearing this and scolded him with a smile, "Look at you! I'm taking you flying, something so exciting, and you're so timid?"
Chu Xia said in surprise: "Miss!"
Lan Xiyue turned around, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Why? Are you so surprised to see me? You're quite smart, you knew to run back on your own."
Chu Xia curled her lips and explained, "I came back to ask Yun Lei and the others to rescue you, young lady."
"Where are Yunlei and the others?" Lan Xiyue frowned and asked.
"As soon as Yun Lei heard about it, he immediately went to look for you, Miss. They had already been out for quite a while. He also said that I was slow and that it would be useless even if I went, so he told me to wait for you in the mansion."
After hearing this, Lan Xiyue shook her head helplessly: "Go and call them back quickly, including Chuchun and the others."
Chu Xia responded, turned around and ran out the door.
Qian Duoduo had recovered by now. He took off his face scarf, looked around, and said, "Yueyue, is this where you live now?"
Lan Xiyue nodded: "Yeah, let's go, I'll take you to my attic to play."
Qian Duoduo looked at the face scarf in her hand, still feeling a lingering fear: "Yueyue, luckily I had the foresight to wear a face scarf when I entered the Chu Pavilion, otherwise, the eldest princess would have remembered my appearance."
Lan Xiyue's expression was solemn. "Well, they must be searching the whole city for us now. Don't go back today. I'll have someone tell your family that you'll be staying with me today."
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo stepped forward, took Lan Xiyue's arm, and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Yue, let Duoduo serve you well tonight and let you enjoy the beauty of the night..." However, before she finished her words, her body froze in an instant as if hit by a cold wind.
Just at this moment, Xiao Muzi pushed Lan Shenye in a wheelchair slowly over and stopped beside him.
"Yueyue!"
Qian Duoduo's heart tightened, and he quickly let go of Lan Xiyue's arm, stammering to explain: "Well, Brother Yueyue, it's not, it's not what you think, I, I just..." Before he finished speaking, his cheeks were already flushed.
Lan Shenye had a gentle smile on his face. "No need to explain. I naturally knew you were joking with Yueyue."
When Qian Duoduo heard this, a huge stone fell from his heart and his expression relaxed a lot.
Lan Xiyue was laughing so hard that she fell backwards. She looked at Qian Duoduo jokingly and said, "Why, after meeting my brother twice, you stutter like this? Hey, your face is even red. Tell me the truth, are you interested in my brother?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo quickly waved his hands and lowered his head even lower, as if to bury it in his chest: "No... no..."
Lan Shenye looked at Lan Xiyue helplessly, his tone gentle but with a hint of blame: "Yueyue, don't talk nonsense, don't ruin Miss Qian's reputation."
Lan Xiyue continued to laugh, thinking to herself: This girl really has a crush on her brother! I wonder if her brother is interested in her? Should I try to bring them together? But how? She's not good at it!
While Lan Xiyue was thinking hard, Lan Shenye noticed Qian Duoduo's discomfort and said with a smile, "You guys go ahead and have fun. I won't disturb you anymore. Xiao Muzi, push me back."
Xiao Muzi responded and pushed Lan Shenye away slowly.
Lan Xiyue looked at their departing backs and thought to herself: Forget it, there are plenty of opportunities, no need to rush.
"Let's go to my attic and serve me well! Haha..."
After saying that, Lan Xiyue turned and walked towards the attic.
