Mo Junjiu’s hands hidden in his sleeves were full of sweat, and his back was sweaty. But he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
As he saw that Mo Junyang was threatened by him, his fear and worry turned into hatred and complacency.
He had nursed a grievance against Mo Junyang and would get back at him this time.
Mo Junjiu raised his chin arrogantly and said, “It’s up to your behavior.”
“Let her go. Whatever you want, I can satisfy you!” Mo Junyang didn’t want to waste time with Mo Junjiu, so he made an offer.
Cao Qicai got overjoyed after hearing that and responded, “You let us leave here first. Don’t chase us!”
As soon as Mo Junyang showed up, Cao Qicai realized that they were going to be defeated. If they didn’t give up, they might be unable to retreat, let alone conquering the imperial palace and usurping the throne.
The most important thing was to run away from the imperial palace and return to their base, so they could plan for the future.
It happened that they had captured Shi Qingxue, who could be a bargaining chip.
However, no matter how perfect and reasonable Cao Qicai’s plan was, it couldn’t compare with Mo Junjiu’s hate for Mo Junyang.
Mo Junjiu’s plan had been ruined by Mo Junyang several times and he bore a grudge against Mo Junyang for a long time. He had thought hundreds of times about how he would humiliate Mo Junyang.
Now he had such a great chance, so how would he miss it?
Then he shouted loudly, “It’s not so easy. If you really want to save Shi Qingxue, just kneel down and kowtow to me. After I get happy, maybe I will release your sweetheart.”
“Wow!”
As soon as he made such a humiliating offer, everybody behind Mo Junyang got resentful.
Even Cao Qicai couldn’t help but gasp and wonder if Mo Junjiu was insane.
Mo Junjiu even wanted to insult Mo Junyang in public. Would he really fight against Mo Junyang till death?
If it were somebody else, Cao Qicai wouldn’t be so frightened. After all, they had a bargaining chip.
But thinking that their opponent was Mo Junyang, he couldn’t help but feel a shiver down his spine.
In the past, Mo Junyang wiped out the Zhao family and killed all the members of the Qin family without a warning, which was spread till now. All people felt terrified to hear that. If not necessary, nobody wanted to offend such a malevolent man.
However, Mo Junjiu made a fuss about it. Even though sometimes Shi Qingxue could be used to threaten Mo Junyang, it was just a threat. Nobody knew what Mo Junyang’s bottom line was.
More importantly, they couldn’t have a try easily. If there was something wrong with Shi Qingxue…
Thinking about the Shi family’s reaction and recalling Mo Junyang’s methods, Cao Qicai believed that he could prepare for his own funeral now.
“Your Highness, in the emergency, it’s improper to do something unnecessary. Let’s just leave the Cold Palace first,” Cao Qicai advised patiently, hoping to bring Mo Junjiu back to earth.
However, Mo Junjiu thought about nothing but the scene that he defeated Mo Junyang, and he became dizzy with “success”.
He didn’t consider the gain and loss, so how would he listen to Cao Qicai’s advice?
Mo Junjiu impatiently shook off Cao Qicai’s hand and rebuked him coldly, “It’s none of your business. Just stay aside and watch Shi Qingxue for me.”
Afterward, he didn’t care when Shi Qingxue was shaky and almost went into a coma. He just left her to Cao Qicai and confronted Mo Junyang.
He yelled haughtily again, “Kneel down now. If you don’t kneel down, I won’t ensure your woman’s safety.”
Mo Junyang showed a gloomy expression and stared ahead.
He wasn’t looking at Mo Junjiu but his eyes passed over Mo Junjiu and fell on Shi Qingxue who was unconscious.
He furrowed his brows tightly, and his cold face was full of killing intent.
Shi Qingxue felt a serious headache and her mind was crowded with many familiar and strange memories seemingly, which were mixed with her former memories.
She wanted to sort them out, but they became messier. At the same time, what was happening around made her unable to calm down to put her messy thoughts in order.
Shi Qingxue raised her heavy eyelids and stared at Mo Junyang standing in the distance, with only one thought in her brain.
She couldn’t let this man suffer a grievance or insult because of her.
“No…No! Mo Jun…”
Shi Qingxue opened her mouth with difficulty, and the feeble voice came from her vibrative throat, but nobody could hear it.
She wanted to move, but all her strength seemed to have been drained.
She couldn’t even raise her arm, not to mention getting rid of Cao Qicai’s grab.
At last, her eyelids fell and everything was in darkness.
Before she fainted, a cry came from her ears and brain at the same time.
“Qingxue!”
Shi Qingxue didn’t know how long she had slept. When she woke up, she was lying on a soft and comfortable queen bed, with a gorgeous and simple curtain above her head.
It looked familiar, as if she had seen it before.
“You are finally awake!” Shen Luo’s surprised and pleasant voice came into her ears.
Shi Qingxue tilted her head slightly and saw the miracle-working doctor Shen Luo standing beside the bed with a bowl of medicine in his hand. He looked joyful and relieved.
“You…” Shi Qingxue tried hard to sit up. When she was about to ask, she felt dizzy again.
Shen Luo hurriedly supported her and comforted her. “You have been in a coma for more than one day, and you are still weak. Take some medicine and have a rest first.”
Shi Qingxue rubbed her forehead. When she was not as dizzy as before, she turned her head to look around the room.
It was…Mo Junyang’s bedroom.
She frowned and asked in confusion, “Why am I here?”
Shen Luo gave the medicine to her and meanwhile told her what had happened when she was in a coma. “Don’t worry. Madam Shi is safe now, and she has been sent back to your mansion.”
Shi Qingxue got anxious in an instant and asked emotionally, “My family is not safe now. Why did you send her back?”
Didn’t they send a sheep to a tiger’s mouth?
“Relax!” Shen Luo realized that he didn’t make it clear, so he added in a hurry, “Your father led the Shi Army to return from Yang City in time and stopped the rebel army which hadn’t entered the city, collaborating from outside with the imperial guards in the city. They have steadied the situation in the city. Your father took Madam Shi back home in person.”
Shi Qingxue finally sighed with relief and didn’t refuse the medicine Shen Luo gave to her.
But the smell of the medicine was too terrible.
Although she didn’t complain, she couldn’t help but wrinkle her nose. She stared at the medicine bowl in her hand unhappily, and she might be more hesitant and annoyed than when she faced the enemy.
Shen Luo saw that and tried his best to hold back his laughter. He intentionally didn’t remind Shi Qingxue that he had prepared the plum but urged, “Take the medicine quickly. If it goes cold, it would be not good.”
With a sad face, Shi Qingxue glanced at Shen Luo and had to close her eyes and pinch her nose. Then she took it in one breath.
As soon as the bitter medicine entered her mouth, she almost spat it out, but under Shen Luo’s watchful eyes, she had to swallow it.
At last, Shen Luo saw that she felt bad, so he took out a candy and put it in her mouth, like doing magic tricks. He said with a smile, “Well, I won’t tease you. This candy is specially made by me. Hold it in your mouth for a while, and then you won’t feel the bitterness.”
After Shi Qingxue’s tongue tip touched the hard stuff in her mouth, it was full of sweetness.
She clicked her tongue and didn’t forget to glare at Shen Luo to complain about his repulsive addiction.
Shen Luo ignored her calmly and said while smiling, “Stay here and have a good rest. Junyang has gone out to chase Mo Junjiu who is escaping and would come back soon.”
Shi Qingxue swallowed the cube candy quickly and asked in haste, “Wasn’t I kidnapped by Mo Junjiu in the Cold Palace? Why am I here?”
Thinking of what happened then, Shi Qingxue still felt terrified and was more worried about Mo Junyang’s situation later.
Did that idiot kneel to Mo Junjiu?
Shi Qingxue frowned, and Shen Luo explained in a hurry after seeing that, “Cao Qicai works for the crown prince. Although you were in a coma then, as soon as Mo Junjiu left you to him, he took you back to King Rui’s mansion from the Cold Palace.
“Without you as the bargaining chip, Mo Junjiu retreated in defeat soon. They had to run to the outer ring of the city along the secret passage in the Cold Palace.”
“How about Junyang…” Shi Qingxue was still worried about Mo Junyang.
Shen Luo soothed her gently, “Junyang stayed with you one hour ago, but this time he has to capture Mo Junjiu and bring him back to the imperial palace under orders. Just now a spy came to report. Mo Junjiu has run away to the north, so Junyang has to lead people to bring him back.”
Shi Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief at last, but thinking for a while, she was still worried.
She uncovered the quilt and got up.
“I am going to have a look.”
After speaking, she put on her coat and grabbed the long crossbow on the bedside, preparing to walk out.
Shen Luo hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and said with a frenzy of rage, “You have just woken up and are still weak. You want to go out now, but aren’t you just going to suffer? Moreover, your parents are safe and sound now, so no need to worry about them. Just stay here till you recover. Isn’t it okay?”
He thought that Shi Qingxue was still worried about the safety of Duke Shi and his wife.
But now he didn’t dare to let Shi Qingxue go. If there was another accident, he would be killed by Mo Junyang.
However, Shi Qingxue showed a bright smile to Shen Luo. “I am well. I have recovered, so you don’t need to worry about me.”
Her tone was firm and her attitude was persistent.
Shen Luo couldn’t stop Shi Qingxue but had to watch her leave on horseback.
Qu Yuexuan comforted him. “Alright. Now the situation in the capital is steady, and she won’t be in danger as she goes out now. What’s more, she brings a crossbow in her hand, right?
“This stuff is horribly powerful in her hand and can even hit the target at every shot. The ordinary person can’t get close to her easily.”
Earlier Mo Junjiu could control her only because he had captured Dong Hui and she could do nothing but fold her hands.
Shen Luo was still worried and murmured, “I feel that she is different from before, but…”
But he was not sure what the difference was.
Qu Yuexuan waited a long time but didn’t hear Shen Luo’s following words, so he rolled his eyes impatiently. “Come on. How would she be unusual? Don’t be nervous.”
More than five kilometers away from the north city of the Mo Country was the imperial mausoleum, with the first emperor of the country and the royal family members inside.
The setting sun looked lonely and quiet, as if it was stained with blood.
Mo Junjiu rode a fast horse in the front, with more than ten loyal guards following him, while Mo Junyang led some people and chased them on horseback.
They ran and chased and passed through a dense forest. In the end, they came to the imperial mausoleum of the Mo Country.
Mo Junjiu stopped. He grabbed the rein after he passed the forest and stopped the horse.
He turned around and confronted Mo Junyang.
Several guards attacked Mo Junyang’s people from behind quickly and accurately, wanting to strike first to gain the initiative. They fought against Mo Junyang’s subordinates.
Both sides had few people, but everybody was elite and fought at close quarters.
In no time, there were dead bodies all over the ground and both parties suffered great losses, but neither side could win yet.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

You want to go out now, but aren't you just going to suffer? Moreover, your parents are safe and sound now, so no need to worry about them. Just stay here till you recover. Isn't it okay?He thought that Shi Qingxue was still worried about the safety of Duke Shi and his wife.But now he didn't dare to let Shi Qingxue go. If there was another accident, he would be killed by Mo Junyang.However, Shi Qingxue showed a bright smile to Shen Luo. I am well. I have recovered, so you don't need to worry about me.Her tone was firm and her attitude was persistent.Shen Luo couldn't stop Shi Qingxue but had to watch her leave on horseback.Qu Yuexuan comforted him. Alright. Now the situation in the capital is steady, and she won't be in danger as she goes out now. What's more, she brings a crossbow in her hand, right?This stuff is horribly powerful in her hand and can even hit the target at every shot. The ordinary person can't get close to her easily.Earlier Mo Junjiu could control her only because he had captured Dong Hui and she could do nothing but fold her hands.Shen Luo was still worried and murmured, I feel that she is different from before, butBut he was not sure what the difference was.Qu Yuexuan waited a long time but didn't hear Shen Luo's following words, so he rolled his eyes impatiently. Come on. How would she be unusual? Don't be nervous.More than five kilometers away from the north city of the Mo Country was the imperial mausoleum, with the first emperor of the country and the royal family members inside.The setting sun looked lonely and quiet, as if it was stained with blood.Mo Junjiu rode a fast horse in the front, with more than ten loyal guards following him, while Mo Junyang led some people and chased them on horseback.They ran and chased and passed through a dense forest. In the end, they came to the imperial mausoleum of the Mo Country.Mo Junjiu stopped. He grabbed the rein after he passed the forest and stopped the horse.He turned around and confronted Mo Junyang.Several guards attacked Mo Junyang's people from behind quickly and accurately, wanting to strike first to gain the initiative. They fought against Mo Junyang's subordinates.Both sides had few people, but everybody was elite and fought at close quarters.In no time, there were dead bodies all over the ground and both parties suffered great losses, but neither side could win yet.
