Chapter 318 Why are you shouting so loudly? It’s so noisy!
Youling was kneeling in the magnificent imperial study at this moment, her whole body trembling unconsciously with fear.
"Your Majesty, I saw Lan Xiyue appear beside the Regent in good health..." His voice was low and trembling, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
Upon hearing this, the emperor's face turned ashen, and a trace of disbelief and anger flashed in his eyes.
"Those bastards can't even kill a woman! I've really raised a bunch of bastards!"
You Ling swallowed hard, feeling the Emperor's wrath surge like a tide. He had no choice but to continue in a low voice, "Last night, the Regent led his men to surround the Canglong Mountain Canyon. I couldn't get in, and I didn't dare to get close..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the emperor's roar: "What? The Regent actually led his men to surround the Canglong Mountain Canyon?"
"Yes!" Youling's answer was brief and powerful.
The emperor's face became even uglier. He stood up suddenly, clenching his fists. "Where are those assassins? How are they?" His voice was low and hoarse, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat.
"Not a single one is left alive!" Youling's answer was like an icy blade, piercing the emperor's heart.
The emperor's face turned pale in an instant. He couldn't believe his ears. None of those carefully trained assassins were spared.
"Bastard!" The emperor roared angrily and threw all the memorials on the desk to the ground.
The memorials were scattered all over the floor. He glared at You Ling, his eyes blazing with fire. "Useless! Trash! So many people, yet not a single one survived?"
Youling knelt on the ground, lowered her head, and dared not speak.
The emperor paced back and forth in the imperial study, his chest heaving with anger.
He yelled, "Mo Liyuan! You're really great!"
At this moment, the emperor suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and his body shook. Eunuch Fu screamed, "Emperor?" He hurried forward to support the emperor, "Someone, call the imperial physician!" Eunuch Fu's cry echoed in the imperial study.
The Regent's Palace was filled with joy at the moment, which was completely different from the atmosphere in the Imperial Palace. In the storeroom, the butler was directing the guards to pack the prepared betrothal gifts into boxes and checking them carefully.
Mo Liyuan lay on the rattan chair, leisurely flipping through the military book in his hand.
Mo Yifan hurried into the Regent's Palace, looking anxiously at his young uncle's leisurely appearance. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "Young uncle, you are so leisurely. Don't you know that the palace is in chaos now?"
Mo Liyuan raised his eyes slightly, a playful smile on his lips: "Oh? What could have caused such a panic in the palace?"
Mo Yifan sighed, his face full of helplessness: "Little Uncle, why do I feel that this matter has something to do with you? Where on earth were you last night?"
Mo Liyuan's gaze lingered on Mo Yifan's face for a moment, but he did not answer.
Seeing the little uncle remain silent, Mo Yifan became more certain of his suspicions. "My father... he was so angry that he fainted! Little uncle, did you do something to make the emperor so angry, yet he couldn't do anything about you?"
Mo Liyuan put down the military book in his hand, and sneered: "Oh! He has a bad temper, who can he blame? I just took care of those trash in the Canglong Mountain Canyon last night." His Yue'er was really powerful. With just two small things, she blew those trash to death or injured.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yifan's eyes widened and his voice rose a few degrees. "Oh my God! No wonder father was so angry that he fell ill! Little uncle, you actually wiped out the entire Canglong Mountain Canyon last night? Those were father's dedicated warriors! Could it be that father was so angry about this incident that he fell ill?"
Mo Liyuan's expression instantly turned icy. "He deserves it! He tried to harm my Yue'er. If it weren't for the Queen Mother, would I have tolerated him? He only brought this upon himself."
Mo Yifan sat helplessly aside, trying to persuade him earnestly, "My little uncle, although father has done some things wrong, don't take it too seriously. You are brothers after all. If you really get serious with father, I'm afraid he will be mad at you to death. If that happens, Dongyao Kingdom will really be in chaos. Also, the grandmother is old, she can't stand such a torment."
Upon hearing this, Mo Liyuan looked at Mo Yifan with a deep gaze and said, "You should tell this to your father, not to me."
Mo Yifan wore an uninhibited smile, but his eyes couldn't hide the loneliness. "If I tell him, he'll put me under house arrest in a matter of minutes," he whispered to himself, his tone full of sternness towards his father.
Mo Yifan did not have much respect or affection for his father who sat high on the dragon throne. Instead, he felt an indescribable alienation and indifference.
Tianyi whispered in his ear the latest movements of the eldest prince.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yifan stood up suddenly, with a flash of astonishment and anger in his eyes: "Oh my god! Mo Jicang actually dared to rebel?" Although his voice was low, it could not hide the shock and dissatisfaction in it.
Mo Yifan turned to look at Mo Liyuan beside him and said anxiously, "No, little uncle, Mo Jicang is rebelling, why are you indifferent?"
Mo Liyuan glanced at him lightly and said, "Rebel if you want to. The one who should be worried is the Emperor. What does this have to do with me?"
Mo Yifan was stunned when he heard this. He walked over and squatted down. Mo Yifan approached Mo Liyuan and said, "Little uncle, you are the regent of our Dongyao Kingdom. How can you not care about such an important matter?"
Mo Liyuan's lips curled slightly, a subtle hint of sarcasm hidden within that smile: "The Emperor hasn't received the news yet. What would your petty father think if I had received the news earlier?"
Mo Yifan's expression became complicated when he heard this. He knew very well that his father was wary and suspicious of Mo Liyuan. His father knew how powerful Mo Liyuan was, but he was still wary and suspicious of him.
Tianyi shook his head and said, "There are more than three princes. The eldest prince is not the emperor's biological son."
Mo Yifan's eyes widened, he stood up suddenly, walked in front of Tianyi, and his voice unconsciously became louder, "What did you say?"
Mo Liyuan frowned and said unhappily, "Why are you being so loud? It's so noisy!"
Mo Yifan turned and looked at Mo Liyuan, "Little Uncle, is what Tianyi said true? Who was the child of Concubine De and her? Concubine De is so bold that she actually dared to cheat on our father?"
"No, the Third Prince misunderstood. When Concubine De gave birth in the palace, her body was switched."
Mo Yifan heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. This was easy to accept. He said that Concubine De was not competitive in her daily life, so how could she have the guts to cheat on his father?
