Chapter 123 - Confusion Hearts

Mo Long raised his head and sized up the man in front of him. It was just that he hadn’t seen him for a few days, when did he become so slovenly? Even the stubble on his beard appeared, making him look much more aged. Even though this didn’t stop him from being handsome or charming, she still felt a pang in her heart.

She opened her mouth, but due to staying up late, her voice became much hoarser.“Royal Uncle, why have you come?”

When Xiao Ruojun heard the way Mo Xie addressed Helian Yi, he was shocked. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he stared at the two of them.

Helian Yi and Mo Li ignored him, and Helian Yi lowered his head, looking at Mo Li affectionately.

“This King waits for your explanation!”When Mo Li heard this, she pouted innocently and pressed her face against Helian Yi’s chest. At this moment, her panicked heart calmed down a lot. Her guard was immediately lifted.

Feeling the peculiar expression of the little woman in his embrace, the corner of Helian Yi’s mouth flashed with a proud smile.

After a moment, he looked at Xiao Ruojun.“Brother Xiao, how do you think we should settle this matter?”

This sentence carried a rebuke that could not be refused.

Xiao Ruojun was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said:“This King drank some wine and was confused for a moment. Fortunately, it did not result in a grave mistake. Here, This King is apologizing to this lady, and I hope that she can forgive me.”

Then he stole a glance at Mo Xie.

Mo Long looked back at the pretentious Xiao Ruojun. Forgive him? If not for Helian Yi’s appearance just now, she would probably have been his meal, waiting for him to slaughter her.

Yue’er and Guo Xiang’s whereabouts were unknown, so she had to find them first.

When Helian Yi signaled for him to open his mouth, Mo Xie asked bluntly, “Where are my friends and maids?”

Xiao Ruojun originally wanted to make up an excuse, but when he received Helian Yi’s cold gaze, he returned the smile and said:“This King has only invited the two ladies out for a cup of tea and will be back soon.”

After hearing Xiao Ruojun’s words, Mo Long looked at him suspiciously. She was still curious about why she had become his target!“Why did you want to kill me?”

Hearing Mo Xie’s question, Xiao Ruojun was worried that Helian Yi would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, “I don’t know the lady, why would I send people to assassinate her?”

“You mean that your men didn’t come here for me?”

Xiao Ruojun nodded, “Of course not. This king only wants to make use of the princess of the Fusang Country to win Prince Guo’s favor. Who knew that you would appear at the same time as her? This King has never rejected beauties, so naturally, I’m a little curious about you. ”

Just as his voice fell, Helian Yi coldly spat out a few words, “Release him!”Naturally, Xiao Ruo Jun would not stop him and not let him go, it was just that at this time, he would probably already be at the entrance of the city.

Seeing the two of them looking at him, Xiao Ruojun let out a light sigh. She took out a small toy from her bosom, walked over to the window and lit it up. Very quickly, a beautiful firework dispersed into the sky.

He turned to Mo Long and Helian Yi and said, “We will be there immediately. “King Jing, why don’t you sit and drink a cup?”

At this moment, ten miles away from Tongli City, Guo Xiang’s face was smeared like a kitten’s as she tightly grasped Yue’er’s wrist and fled in all directions.

She also didn’t know where this place was. At night, she couldn’t even see her fingers in front of her. It was already a great fortune for her to be able to escape with Yue Er. Before the black-clothed men catch up, they must find a safe place to hide.

As long as it was day, everything would be fine. The two of them hid in the grass and stuck their heads out. Suddenly, Yue’er saw the bright fireworks and excitedly said, “Miss Xiang’er, there’s someone over there.”Guo Xiang looked in the direction Yue’er pointed at and felt a sense of loss. “That’s the direction of the relay station.” This sort of thing is usually used to send signals. If I guessed correctly, this should be the signal the people at the relay station sent to this group of black-clothed people, reminding them to go back and gather. It’s quite possible that something more important than the two of us has happened there. ”

Just as he finished explaining to Yue’er, a group of men in black appeared in the vicinity. One of them spoke coldly, “Retreat. Master, let’s not bother about those two women for now.”

“Is that okay?” one of them asked worriedly.

The leader of the men in black stared at the man and scolded him, “Master is obviously sending a signal because it’s urgent. We can look for him again if he loses. If we miss out on master’s plans, none of us will be able to get away!”

Hearing this, the few of them nodded their heads and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

When the surroundings calmed down once more, Yue’er and Guo Xiang looked at each other, stood up slowly, and walked towards the entrance of Tong Li City.On the way, Yue’er asked Guo Xiang, “Miss Xiang, are we entering the city now?” Ever since she was young, she was sent into the General Mo’s mansion as a maid, and she had never gone far. This was also the first time that the Tong Li Country had come. Of course, when Yue Er mentioned the Tong Li Country, she naturally had a plan in mind.

Since she had come to the State of Tong Li, she wanted to see that Qiuxiang who had come to find her a few days ago. She wanted to see her elder sister, whom she had not seen for many years.The timidness turned into longing for her family. Yue’er wasn’t that afraid anymore.

Hearing Yue’er’s words, Guo Xiang winked at her. “Let’s go into the city right now and find an inn to rest. Tomorrow morning, we’ll go look for you.”

“Yes.”

Their figures quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Mo Long sat beside Helian Yi and watched as Helian Yi and Xiao Ruojun drank one after another, and he could not help but sigh. She had never known that drinking could be done in such a way.

Beneath his feet, there were wine jars everywhere. Mo Han looked at Helian Yi with a worried look, and upon seeing that Helian Yi’s expression did not change, his eyes became normal, and he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were not in the Modern World, otherwise they would have already entered the operation room.After an unknown period of time, Wushang’s voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Seeing this, Mo Long hurried forward and asked, “What’s the matter?”

As soon as he said that, he saw the group of men in black behind Wushang, and his eyes immediately turned cold, “It’s you!”

She remembered this group of people. They were the bad guys who had barged into her room and led her away, seizing the opportunity to kidnap Yue’er and Guo Xiang.

Mo Han looked behind them with his mouth agape, but he did not see Yue Er and Guo Xiang, so he asked coldly.

“Where is he?”The man in black raised his eyes and tremblingly replied, “Run, run!”

Just as he said that, a wine jar flew out from the room, flying straight towards the black clothed man through Mo Xie’s head.

Xiao Ruojun stood up abruptly, and stared coldly towards the door. At this moment, he really wanted to get rid of this group of trash!

“You two unarmed women, if you can’t keep an eye on them, then what’s the use of this king raising all of you trash!”Helian Yi, who was sitting in front of the table, naturally heard Xiao Ruojun’s words. He said in a low and indifferent voice, “This king reminds you, don’t think of playing with me!”

Xiao Ruojun innocently frowned, he didn’t know why the situation would suddenly change. He hastily explained, “King Jing, since Ben Wang has called them back, he wouldn’t lie to you. Besides, Ben Wang doesn’t need to think about anything in front of you.”
