Shi Qingxue was overcautious and indecisive. In the end, she had to show her master card.
“No need. His Highness said that he couldn’t accept your taking care of him, so you don’t need to bother.”
Her words “taking care of” were meaningful. Both of them knew what it meant.
Even though Yan Xu was thick-skinned, he blushed after hearing that.
However, she didn’t give him a chance to argue. Then she added unhurriedly, “Lord Yan, don’t need to worry. Wei Zichao and Dong Shuang are taking care of His Highness, and he will be fine. I won’t be tired.”
These words showed that the relationship between Shi Qingxue and Mo Junzhan was pure. Even if some people took the chance to cause trouble in the future, they could do nothing to her. At the same time, she warned Yan Xu.
With Wei Zichao protecting Mo Junzhan, Yan Xu couldn’t hurt him no matter how bold and capable he was.
Yan Xu received Shi Qingxue’s warning clearly, but he still kept the normal smile on his old face, saying slowly, “My Lady, you are right. With Wei taking care of him, it’s not my turn to teach fish to swim.”
Seeing that he couldn’t take Mo Junzhan away this time, he said something politely to show his concern and then smiled. “Since there is nothing that I can do here, I will say goodbye.”
Afterward, he turned to leave before asking Shi Qingxue for permission.
He was so arrogant.
Shi Qingxue naturally wouldn’t stop him. She waved her sleeve and saw him off.
At the same time, she didn’t forget to tell Wei Zichao, “Yan Xu has ill intentions and must want to ask His Highness for something. You should take good care of His Highness these days and can’t let anybody get close to him.”
Wei Zichao agreed without demur, yet he asked hesitantly in the end, “My Lady, won’t we go to look for His Excellency?”
Shi Qingxue wasn’t worried or annoyed anymore but even smiled at Wei Zichao, which scared him out of wits and made him doubt if his master would be abandoned.
“Idiot!”
Qingxue was angry and amused because of Wei Zichao’s exaggerated action. She rolled her eyes and complained, “Abandon him? I just figure out something.”
“What?” Wei Zichao asked in confusion.
Shi Qingxue replied, “No news is good news.”
She had found that Yan Xu came to visit the patient for another important purpose, to inquire about Mo Junyang.
It meant that Yan Xu might not have found Mo Junyang.
Since Mo Junyang was not in the hands of Yan Xu, it meant that he might be alive somewhere and waiting till he came back at the right time.
Shi Qingxue hoped so and didn’t dare to think about the other possibilities.
Wei Zichao understood what Shi Qingxue meant and didn’t mention going to look for Mo Junyang.
Two days later, Mo Junzhan opened his eyes from the coma.
He said nervously at the sight of Shi Qingxue, “Qingxue, hurry up and go to save Brother Junyang.”
In the beginning, Shi Qingxue was confused by the unfamiliar form of address. After a long time, she realized that Mo Junzhan called Mo Junyang.
Before she had time to sigh with emotion and wonder when they became so close, she was scared by Mo Junzhan’s words.
“What’s wrong with Junyang?” she asked emotionally.
Mo Junzhan pressed his elbows on the bed and struggled, trying to sit up while still shouting anxiously, “Brother Junyang was beaten down a cliff by the masked men in order to save me, and his whereabouts is unknown. We should hurry up…”
A bang interrupted Mo Junzhan.
All people raised their heads, to see that Ye Zhixin was standing still at the door, keeping the posture of holding the medicine bowl with both hands, with a pale face.
The news that Mo Junzhan woke up was a surprise, and they didn’t remember to shut the door, which gave Ye Zhixin a chance.
Shi Qingxue frowned with displeasure. “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you to stay in your room?”
Ye Zhixin apologized repeatedly, “I didn’t mean it. Please forgive me, My Lady. I just saw that the medicine was boiled in the kitchen, so I wanted to bring it for you.”
“It’s a good thing to send the medicine, but you made all the medicine which was boiled after a long time splash onto the floor because you didn’t hold it steadily.”
Shi Qingxue complained in secret and wasn’t in the mood to rebuke Ye Zhixin, in case that others thought that she bullied the girl.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zhixin was more emotional than her and walked quickly to the bed, staring at Mo Junzhan while asking, “How is His Excellency?”
Mo Junzhan looked askance at Ye Zhixin with his cold eyes. After a moment, he asked instead of answering, “What’s your relationship with Xiao Qijun?”
Who?
Hearing this name which was seldom mentioned, the others were as confused as Shi Qingxue.
Only Ye Zhixin almost buried her head in her collar and denied repeatedly, “No, we have nothing to do with each other…”
She just exposed herself unwittingly while trying to cover up.
Mo Junzhan was bad-tempered and didn’t want to beat around the bush with this woman. He just ordered Wei Zichao, “Go to Yan Xu’s place and capture Xiao Qijun. If Yan Xu asks, just tell him I found that Xiao Qijun tried to murder the imperial envoy, so I want to capture and interrogate him. Anybody who dares to stop you is his accomplice.”
“Yes, I will send somebody to…” Wei Zichao cupped his hands and answered.
Mo Junzhan stated, “No, you go there in person. Xiao Qijun is powerful in martial arts, and if the others do it, he may run away.”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Wei Zichao left the room quickly, Ye Zhixin looked at the crowd in fear with her tearful eyes and cried, “Your Highness, you have misunderstood it. Xiao won’t do something like this, and you must have misunderstood. I beg you. Please don’t…”
Mo Junzhan snorted and interrupted Ye Zhixin’s sob. “Didn’t you say that you have nothing to do with Xiao Qijun? Why do you beg for mercy for him so intimately now?”
Ye Zhixin looked embarrassed as she was rebuked by Mo Junzhan. She didn’t dare to retort but begged in a low voice, “Your Highness, please believe me. Xiao is on our side. He will never harm His Excellency. There must be an understanding.”
Shi Qingxue noticed something from Ye Zhixin’s intermittent words and finally remembered who Xiao Qijun was.
He was Yan Xu’s assistant who looked weak like a scholar yet was resourceful.
Such a talent was on Ye Zhixin’s side? Moreover, he was powerful in martial arts and only Wei Zichao could capture him?
If so, why did Ye Zhixin avoid Yan Xu with difficulty and feel scared all day long?
Was it fun?
Shi Qingxue had many questions on her mind and felt worried, but Mo Junzhan’s calmness made her choose to keep quiet and listen to his plan first.
After about two hours, Wei Zichao brought Xiao Qijun late.
Judging from the dust on their bodies, the others could guess that they had a fierce battle.
When Xiao Qijun entered the room, he looked indifferent and unyielding, as if he would rather lose his head than reveal the truth.
In fact, when Mo Junzhan asked him, he turned away and expressed coldly, “I know nothing. You can kill me as you wish. I won’t frown.”
Mo Junzhan would be angry and stomp because of Xiao Qijun’s words in the past, but this time he was surprisingly calm and didn’t even frown. He sneered at Xiao Qijun. “Okay. I will cut Ye Zhixin’s flesh little by little later. Then I am going to see if you will frown.”
Xiao Qijun was stunned and finally saw that Ye Zhixin was in the room, looking at him pitifully.
The assistant turned pale at once and got emotional, wanting to fight against Mo Junzhan, yet he couldn’t move a bit as Wei Zichao suppressed him.
“You are a man but harm a weak girl. Are you so shameless?” Xiao Qijun shouted loudly in a rage and wasn’t as calm as before.
Mo Junzhan smiled happily and wasn’t affected by Xiao Qijun’s provocation but said unhurriedly, “After she and you die, who will know what happens today? Who dares to say that I am shameless?
“Moreover, don’t think that I couldn’t recognize you as you were masked. The scar on the back of your right hand can’t cheat me. You tried to assassinate a royal family member, and it is a capital crime that can cause the death of your whole family.”
Mo Junzhan raised Xiao Qijun’s right hand and the long scar on its back was obvious. He couldn’t hide it even if he wanted to.
Xiao Qijun’s face was ghastly pale, yet he still craned his neck and said stubbornly, “I will take the blame after I do something. Zhixin has nothing to do with me. Just kill me if you want to.”
He was really not afraid of death.
Ye Zhixin was so frightened that she shed tears and begged in a sobbing voice, “Xiao, don’t be stubborn. Tell them the truth, and they will understand you. As long as you tell them where His Excellency is, you have a chance to save the situation.”
Xiao Qijun was moved as she advised, but he ran his eyes over Ye Zhixin’s face and then gritted his teeth. He lowered his head and continued to play dumb.
Mo Junzhan saw the reactions of the two and sneered. “You are not afraid of death, so I will let it pass. As for Ye Zhixin, I have sufficient reasons to believe that she is your accomplice. So we will kill both of you.”
He said that casually and didn’t seem to talk about two human lives but two big fish from a river.
He was indifferent and didn’t take human lives seriously.
This was the common behavior of all people in power, and Mo Junzhan showed it thoroughly.
Even though Xiao Qijun thought that Mo Junzhan didn’t dare to do something so inhuman, he was terrified by the prince’s expression, and he couldn’t speak a word after a long time.
After waiting a moment, Mo Junzhan snorted impatiently at once. “I will give you the last chance. Tell me where His Excellency is now.”
Xiao Qijun hesitated for a moment and finally restrained his sharp attitude, saying unhurriedly, “His Excellency fell off a cliff by accident. How do I know where he is?”
He admitted that he was one of the people who chased Mo Junyang and Mo Junzhan in Shang Village, yet there was an accident later.
In order to save Mo Junzhan, Mo Junyang fell off a cliff and his dead body couldn’t be found.
Hearing Xiao Qijun’s words, Shi Qingxue couldn’t control herself but turned pale. She couldn’t breathe as if her breath were taken away.
“No way!”
“No way!”
Two firm voices could be heard at the same time, and one of them was from Shi Qingxue. She didn’t believe that Mo Junyang died, and it was impossible. The other voice was from Mo Junzhan.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Shi Qingxue was overcautious and indecisive. In the end, she had to show her master card.
“No need. His Highness said that he couldn’t accept your taking care of him, so you don’t need to bother.”
Her words “taking care of” were meaningful. Both of them knew what it meant.
Even though Yan Xu was thick-skinned, he blushed after hearing that.
