Chapter 76 Family Mark
“When I was a child, I was Nan Qi’s study partner and often went in and out of Concubine Yuan’s palace.
Concubine Yuan had a trusted nanny named Fei. Concubine Yuan looked at me and Nan Qi, and chatted with Nanny Fei.
Concubine Yuan asked Madam Fei if she had a nephew of the same age as us. If possible, he could be brought into the palace to play together.
Nanny Fei refused immediately, claiming Nanyu was of humble status and was afraid that he would offend the nobles by coming here.
Thinking about the age of Fei Nanyu recorded in history books, he is indeed similar to Mo Jiuye.
Therefore, He Zhiran felt that Nanny Fei’s nephew was undoubtedly Fei Nanyu.
According to Mo Jiuye, Nanny Fei was Concubine Yuan's confidant and should not be short of money. Why didn't she lend a helping hand when her nephew's family was in such a dire situation?
Such a question flashed through He Zhiran's mind. After all, how people get along with their relatives has nothing to do with the overall situation.
She let Mo Jiuye know about Fei Nanyu's existence, which was the purpose of their long conversation.
Thinking of Mo Jiuye's initiative to mention that he often went in and out of Concubine Yuan's palace when he was young, He Zhiran asked him tentatively again.
"You often go to Concubine Yuan's palace. How does she treat you?"
Speaking of this, Mo Jiuye was deeply impressed.
"I don't know why, but the Imperial Concubine treats me even better than she treats Nan Qi."
He Zhiran: That’s right, it is almost completely consistent with the records in unofficial history.
Concubine Yuan must have known that Mo Jiuye was her biological son, which is why she acted like this.
Mo Jiuye was quite sensitive and instantly felt that He Zhiran's question was a bit strange.
"Why do you ask that?"
Seeing Mo Jiuye’s serious expression, He Zhiran couldn’t help but want to tease him.
"Have you ever thought that you are Concubine Yuan's child?"
"That's impossible!" Mo Jiuye retorted without a doubt, and his expression became more serious.
"Are you so sure?" He Zhiran continued to ask relentlessly.
"Of course I am sure of it. As a man of the Mo family, I carry the unique family mark of the Mo family since I was born." Mo Jiuye had no doubts about his life experience.
"Family mark?" It was the first time He Zhiran heard that a family would have a mark. This could not be explained scientifically, unless it was done intentionally by humans.
“When my eight brothers and I were born, we all had a crescent-shaped birthmark on our left shoulder.
My father said that this is an ancient tradition of the Mo family, including his and many other ancestors.
Seeing Mo Jiuye speaking so confidently, He Zhiran was confused.
There are many strange things in the world. Even such bizarre things as time travel can happen, so it is not surprising that a family mark appears.
When He Zhiran read about Mo Jiuye's life experience in unofficial history, the first thing that came to his mind was that this was most likely the real reason why Nan Qi attacked him.
This speculation was quickly denied by the Mo family mark, and the reason why Nan Qi targeted Mo Jiuye became a mystery again.
At the same time, a series of question marks appeared in Mo Jiuye's mind.
Why did Nan Qi want to kill him?
Why did He Zhiran ask such a question?
The two of them had their own thoughts and no one spoke.
Because I was preoccupied, I just had a casual dinner.
Lying back in the tent again, He Zhiran was not sleepy at all.
The consciousness entered the space and first checked the sales situation of the store. Only one item was sold today, and the account increased by 250,000 yuan.
There was still a lot of goods and no need to restock, so He Zhiran simply continued to read the unofficial history, hoping to gain something else.
At the same time, in the upper room of Pingyuan County Inn.
Nan Qi sat at the table, tapping the table rhythmically with his fingers.
"Your Highness, I just received a letter from Eunuch Li via carrier pigeon."
As Hefeng was speaking, he respectfully handed a small paper roll about 5 cm long to Nan Qi.
Nan Qi calmly opened the scroll, browsed through the contents, and slammed the table.
"A bunch of useless people, they can even kill the wrong person. What's the point of me keeping these idiots?"
Hefeng didn't know what was written in Li Lu's letter, but seeing the prince so angry, he thought something big must have happened.
"Your Highness, what happened?" Hefeng asked cautiously.
Nan Qi threw the note in his hand to him unhappily.
"See for yourself."
He Feng read the contents of the note and analyzed, "Li Liang's family was escorted back to Beijing. Eunuch Li's news shouldn't be false."
"Humph! Now that Mo Jiuye has woken up, and with his alertness, he will definitely guess that He Liang is just his scapegoat. It won't be so easy to take his life in the future."
Nan Qi also calmed down at this moment and thought carefully about what to do next.
Although He Feng didn't know why his prince was determined to kill Mo Jiuye, he knew in his heart that this was an absolute must for the prince.
"Your Highness, how about I send a few people out to find out where Mo Jiuye and his group of exiles have gone to, so we can understand the situation there and work out our next plan?"
Nan Qi waved his hand: "No need, the Li family has been escorted back to the capital, and the exile team must wait here for the officials to come back and reunite before setting off together.
Pingyuan County is a must-go place for exile to the northwest. Let's wait here. I want to meet Mo Jiuye in person."
The master made his own decision, so Hefeng simply talked about other things.
"Your Majesty, tomorrow is the last day Master Wuchen mentioned. If you still don't meet that noble person, what should we do?"
"Master Wuchen's calculations have never been wrong. I must find that person." There was an unquestionable tone in Nan Qi's voice.
Besides, he had already planned to stay here and wait for Mo Jiuye, so it was understandable that he could spend a few more days searching for that noble person...
He Zhiran unknowingly reread the entire "Wild History", especially the part describing Mo Jiuye's life experience.
No matter from which angle you look at it, there is nothing wrong with the description of this passage.
Moreover, Mo Jiuye also said that the imperial concubine's attitude towards him was even better than towards Nan Qi. Why is that?
He Zhiran racked her brains to speculate on various possibilities, and finally she had an idea and thought of Nan Qi.
He Zhiran was a little excited when she found a new breakthrough. She turned over a little too hard and accidentally pressed down one of Mo Jiuye's arms.
Feeling something was wrong, He Zhiran moved his body away as quickly as possible.
I don’t know if it was her actions that woke Mo Jiuye up, or if he was not asleep at all like me.
Mo Jiuye actually sat up, but there was still no warmth in his tone.
"You can't sleep either?"
"Well, I was thinking about something and I had some insomnia." He Zhiran did not hide it.
Mo Jiuye asked again: "Are you still thinking about my life experience?"
Being asked so pointedly, He Zhiran hesitated for a moment and then asked:
"Have you ever bathed together with Nan Qi?"
Mo Jiuye is also a smart man and immediately grasped the true meaning of this question.
"I can confirm that he has no birthmark on his body."
