Seeing the emperor’s old face wrinkled with a smile, Mo Junyang knew that Mo Xiangbin started to imagine too much again.
But he didn’t explain. His silence made Mo Xiangbin think that the young man had no choice but to give up Shi Qingxue because of him.
He had more love and guilt towards Mo Junyang.
“Junyang…”
Mo Xiangbin pondered for a while. Although he couldn’t say sorry, the emperor still expressed generously, “You don’t need to worry about Junjiu’s death. I will help you solve the problem.”
He offered an attractive compensation.
Mo Junyang nodded slightly. “Your Majesty, thanks for your kindness.”
Mo Xiangbin rarely showed his gentleness and closeness to Mo Junyang, but unfortunately, this man had no reaction at all, like the hardest stone on an iceberg.
The distance he showed in his tone was the same as when he knew their real relationship for the first time.
So many years had passed. Logically, even a stone should have been warmed, but Mo Junyang didn’t change at all.
Mo Xiangbin was guilty to this kid, so he didn’t mind Mo Junyang’s distant attitude.
He even once thought that Mo Junyang behaved well and nobody would suspect their relationship.
But hearing that this child still called him like an ordinary official, the emperor felt uncomfortable.
Anyway this was his child and he called another man father because he had no choice. Why wasn’t he close to his father in private?
Was he inferior to King Rui?
Mo Xiangbin thought with jealousy and refused to let Mo Junyang go in words. He complained with displeasure, “Kid, why do you always call me Your Majesty? There is no outsider here. Can’t you call me…”
“Your Majesty!” Mo Junyang suddenly interrupted Mo Xiangbin in a loud voice.
Meeting Mo Xiangbin’s unhappy eyes, he still said, being neither haughty nor humble, “Walls have ears. Your Majesty, you’d better be careful, in case that it causes unnecessary disturbances.”
Mo Xiangbin instantly came to his senses and realized.
He looked around subconsciously and then confirmed that there were only them two in the room, but he didn’t dare to say more. He just coughed twice and didn’t have the plan to pester Mo Junyang.
He waved his hand and sighed. “I have nothing to say. You go back first.”
“Yes.”
Mo Junyang bowed and said goodbye, and he didn’t change his attitude from beginning to end.
When he left, his straight back was in Mo Xiangbin’s eyes. The emperor’s expression was full of appreciation, but soon it turned into sadness and helplessness. At last, he sighed silently.
Why was such a good kid somebody else’s?
As soon as Mo Junyang walked out of the imperial study, he met a eunuch in the courtyard, who was from the East Palace.
“Your Excellency…”
When the young eunuch called, Mo Junyang shook his head at him and stopped him from continuing. He just stated impassively, “Today I haven’t paid respect to the crown prince. Please lead the way for me.”
The young eunuch was ordered by Mo Junyu to send a message to Mo Junyang and hoped that he would go to the East Palace right away. But before he finished his words, Mo Junyang expressed that he would go to the East Palace.
It made the new comer, the young eunuch feel that he was hit by a meat pie falling from the sky.
The fortune came all of a sudden, and he was in a daze.
Fortunately, at the crucial moment, he still remembered the crown prince’s order and hurriedly ran to be in front of Mo Junyang to lead the way.
Although he led the way, perhaps Mo Junyang had been to the East Palace more times than this new comer, and he quickly walked in front of the young eunuch.
He strode into the East Palace and then saw Mo Junyu who was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard and making tea.
“Your Highness, nice to see you.”
Mo Junyu stood up and tried to support his hand with a smile. “We don’t need the mere courtesy. Come on. I have made tea. It’s the new tea sent from the south and tastes good. Have a try.”
The crown prince let Mo Junyang sit in the chair with enthusiasm and personally poured a cup of tea for him. He even gave the tea to Mo Junyang.
Anybody else might be scared by Mo Junyu’s hospitality to tremble.
But Mo Junyang’s expression didn’t change, and he unhurriedly picked up the tea cup, tasting it carefully. He made the tea fragrance circle around in his mouth and then nodded, praising, “It’s good tea indeed.”
“Aha! I know that you would like it. Come on and drink more. My subordinates sent me a lot. I will tell somebody to send two bags to your mansion tomorrow.” Mo Junyu waved his hand and gave Mo Junyang many rewards.
Although the tea was nothing, it meant that he favored and attached importance to Mo Junyang.
Mo Junyang expressed his thanks again. “Thanks for your kindness, Your Highness.”
What he said and did was as Mo Junyu expected. Mo Junyang accepted his rewards, but he didn’t change his attitude at all.
Even though Mo Junyu knew that Mo Junyang was distant and ignored his warmth, he still felt frustrated inevitably.
He pretended to be angry and spoke to Mo Junyang cautiously with displeasure. “Dude, we are brothers for so many years, but you never change your attitude. Somebody who doesn’t know might think that…you look down upon me.”
Mo Junyu asked the last words meaningfully. Too many things had happened these days. Even though he trusted Mo Junyang a lot, he had to be alert.
He stared at Mo Junyang all the time with his sharp eyes, as if he would make Mo Junyang’s heart have a hole, so that he could tell what was inside.
Was he loyal or not?
However, he didn’t have any kind of reaction as Mo Junyu expected.
Mo Junyang just lowered his eyes and kept silent.
His expression never changed. How would Mo Junyu make a judgment?
The crown prince was frustrated and gave up his plan to sound out. He asked directly, “Father told you to stay alone. Why?”
As for Mo Junyang whose mind was circuitous, it was more effective to speak straightforwardly than to beat around the bush.
If you asked directly, at least Mo Junyang would tell you when he wanted to say it, but if you beat around the bush, he would be more circuitous than you. Then you would never get what you wanted from him.
“His Majesty talked with me about the third prince and the Shi family,” Mo Junyang answered directly as Mo Junyu had imagined.
He even told the truth.
Mo Junyu frowned and questioned unhappily, “Junjiu has died. Why did Father still talk about him? Doesn’t he think that Junjiu harmed the capital a lot?”
Although the rebellion was put down after lasting only a few days, when the rebel army entered the city, they set fire, killed and robbed, and the common people suffered a lot.
The last the common people could accept was that the people who harmed them were from the royal family, and it was their most deadly blow.
The person they trusted and even supported tried to kill them, and nobody could accept it.
Now the capital was still in a mess.
So Mo Junyu was displeased as Mo Xiangbin still missed Mo Junjiu. He didn’t even conceal it in front of Mo Junyang.
Mo Junyang shook his head and explained, “No. Somebody impeached me in front of His Majesty and said that I killed the third prince, hoping that His Majesty would punish me seriously, and the empress…”
He didn’t finish his words, but he had made it clear.
“Oh, I see!” Mo Junyu understood but suddenly thought of something. Then he looked at Mo Junyang, with hesitation in his eyes.
After a long time, he asked hesitantly, “So many things have happened these days, and I was too busy to ask you. What happened when you chased Junjiu that day? Why did he die? Did somebody do something?”
From the beginning, many members of the royal family didn’t believe that it was a coincidence.
But Mo Junyu didn’t turn his suspicious eyes to Mo Junyang because he knew this man well enough. Mo Junyang would never do that.
Even if Mo Junyang really wanted to kill Mo Junjiu, with his intelligence, he could figure out thousands of secret ways to cause Mo Junjiu’s death and nobody would find it.
He would never be like this and make himself everybody’s target because of Mo Junjiu’s death.
Mo Junyu was concerned about Mo Junyang’s current situation, with worries in his eyes.
But Mo Junyang looked distant and raised his deep eyes to stare at Mo Junyu, with a piercing and complicated expression that others didn’t understand.
“What, what’s wrong?” Mo Junyu was stared and felt awkward. He rubbed his hands and then picked up the tea cup again to take a sip.
“Nothing.” Mo Junyang looked away.
He lowered his eyes and then added unhurriedly, “Your Highness, you guess right.”
“What?”
Mo Junyang’s lips curled up and he smiled faintly. “The third prince didn’t die in an accident, but somebody killed him.”
“How is it possible?” Mo Junyu opened his eyes wide in surprise.
He frowned and pondered for quite a while. Then he still shook his head and murmured, “Really? You were on the spot then. Why was there somebody who killed Junjiu in front of you?”
Mo Junyang shook his head and simply told Mo Junyu what happened then.
Mo Junyu expressed more firmly, “It appears that it was an accident. Nobody had the chance to kill him, unless somebody poisoned him earlier, but it was impossible. Didn’t Doctor Shen say that it was an acute poison and the victims would die soon after they are poisoned?”
He couldn’t figure out why after pondering for a long time. It seemed that this was just an accident and there was no other explanation.
“When the third prince was shot and fell on the ground, the first one who got close to him was not me,” Mo Junyang stated impassively.
He went straight to the heart of the matter.
Mo Junyu was suddenly enlightened but soon denied it. “It’s still not right. The one who could stay with Junjiu at last must be somebody loyal to him after being cultivated carefully. Why did that man harm him?”
With a faint smile, Mo Junyang looked at Mo Junyu and asked in reply, “Why is it impossible? Cao Qicai was an assistant trusted by the third prince, but he followed you later, Your Highness.”
Mo Junyu’s face stiffened, and redness was shown on his neck at once and then went to his head.
Cao Qicai was a spy Mo Junyu had arranged around Mo Junjiu, and he had lurked for many years and was used till the end, with a perfect effect, but he never talked about this matter with Mo Junyang.
Unexpectedly, Mo Junyang had found it long ago, which made Mo Junyu feel ashamed.
After a long while, he expressed with difficulty, “This… I just, just want to prepare for a rainy day.”
He was afraid that Mo Junyang would think too much, so he hurriedly said, “Cao Qicai seized the chance this time and won Junjiu’s trust, so he saved Shi Qingxue without being hurt.”
At the mention of Shi Qingxue, Mo Junyang didn’t say more as expected but nodded at Mo Junyu seriously. “Thanks a lot.”
Mo Junyu just wanted to change the subject, but when he heard Mo Junyang express his thanks seriously, he felt guilty involuntarily.
“Aha, we are brothers. Don’t need to say anything useless.
But if this matter is like what you guessed, it means that somebody murdered Junjiu and wanted to frame you purposely. This person is so evil.”
Mo Junyu realized this matter’s seriousness and looked solemn soon.
“Who do you think this man is? It’s Junhao or…”
Mo Junyang shook his head in silence.
Nobody knew if he was unclear or he simply didn’t want to say.
“Somebody bullied you, but why are you still like this? I am worried.” Mo Junyu was anxious and said aggressively.
Mo Junyang was still unmoved, but seeing that Mo Junyu almost went crazy, he explained helplessly, “What is the point of being worried? Since he dares to do something like this, he must be sure that we can’t find the evidence against him.”
“But we can’t stand by and do nothing, just allowing him to wrong you.” Mo Junyu didn’t like Mo Junyang who always stayed out of the way.
This time he would force Mo Junyang to listen to him.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

It seemed that this was just an accident and there was no other explanation.When the third prince was shot and fell on the ground, the first one who got close to him was not me, Mo Junyang stated impassively.He went straight to the heart of the matter.Mo Junyu was suddenly enlightened but soon denied it. It's still not right. The one who could stay with Junjiu at last must be somebody loyal to him after being cultivated carefully. Why did that man harm him?With a faint smile, Mo Junyang looked at Mo Junyu and asked in reply, Why is it impossible? Cao Qicai was an assistant trusted by the third prince, but he followed you later, Your Highness.Mo Junyu's face stiffened, and redness was shown on his neck at once and then went to his head.Cao Qicai was a spy Mo Junyu had arranged around Mo Junjiu, and he had lurked for many years and was used till the end, with a perfect effect, but he never talked about this matter with Mo Junyang.Unexpectedly, Mo Junyang had found it long ago, which made Mo Junyu feel ashamed.After a long while, he expressed with difficulty, This I just, just want to prepare for a rainy day.He was afraid that Mo Junyang would think too much, so he hurriedly said, Cao Qicai seized the chance this time and won Junjiu's trust, so he saved Shi Qingxue without being hurt.At the mention of Shi Qingxue, Mo Junyang didn't say more as expected but nodded at Mo Junyu seriously. Thanks a lot.Mo Junyu just wanted to change the subject, but when he heard Mo Junyang express his thanks seriously, he felt guilty involuntarily.Aha, we are brothers. Don't need to say anything useless.But if this matter is like what you guessed, it means that somebody murdered Junjiu and wanted to frame you purposely. This person is so evil.Mo Junyu realized this matter's seriousness and looked solemn soon.Who do you think this man is? It's Junhao orMo Junyang shook his head in silence.Nobody knew if he was unclear or he simply didn't want to say.Somebody bullied you, but why are you still like this? I am worried. Mo Junyu was anxious and said aggressively.Mo Junyang was still unmoved, but seeing that Mo Junyu almost went crazy, he explained helplessly, What is the point of being worried? Since he dares to do something like this, he must be sure that we can't find the evidence against him.But we can't stand by and do nothing, just allowing him to wrong you. Mo Junyu didn't like Mo Junyang who always stayed out of the way.This time he would force Mo Junyang to listen to him.
