"A man is a knife and I am a fish." Matriarch suddenly raised his head as a bright light flashed in his eyes. "What do you call your father?"
Bing Lanyue was a little depressed, she really could not call him father. She had both father and mother to call her in this strange world, calling this stranger "father" made her feel uncomfortable.
"Forget it, granddaughter. No matter what, Bing Wu must live, and leave a seedling for the Bing Family. You can decide on the rest." The people of Matriarch were old and mature, how could they not see the troubled look on her darling granddaughter's face?
Bing Lanyue shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Madam Lin..."
Matriarch's face darkened, and said coldly: "She will behave."
With her guarantee, the danger to the Bing Family would be gone. Bing Lanyue bowed and prepared to leave.
"Lan Yue." Madam Lin is not to be killed. " The Matriarch seemed to have made some sort of decision, and said: "She used to bully you, but in the end she was related to the Ministry Lin, and now she is related to the Imperial Concubine Yun, so she can be considered to be part of the emperor's faction."
The corner of Bing Lanyue's mouth twitched, but she did not say anything, only nodding, and said: "Yes, Grandmother."
The Matriarch continued, "For the time being, the emperor has the sole power. Our Bing Family can only stand on his side. As for the future assistant minister …"
Bing Lanyue's heart sank. She didn't know why, but the image of Jun Mo Xie kneeling sorrowfully in front of a corpse appeared in her mind. It was as if the entire world had abandoned him.
"Grandmother, Dark Guard should hurry up and make a move. I need to go back immediately." Bing Lanyue bowed her head slightly.
Matriarch quickly said: "Where are you going? "This is your home."
Bing Lanyue squinted her eyes and chuckled: "Grandmother, hehe, you should know who lives in my Red Dust Inn now. If I don't go back and live in my General's Estate, I'll just get angry and let my subordinates get rid of Madam Lin and your only grandson. At that time …"
"Alright. "Go and get rich if you have something to do. This old one will not keep you for dinner." The Matriarch interrupted Bing Lanyue and waved her hand as though she was shooing away flies.
When it came to eating, Bing Lanyue rubbed her stomach, she had been busy for so long that she had not come across any rice water.
Before leaving, Bing Lanyue hesitated for a moment, then said: "Grandmother, granddaughter thinks that Monarch Moli has great potential … We need to leave behind backup plans for everything, as well as the two hundred thousand strong army not too far away from the city. We also need to take out a portion of the power that the Bing Family possesses, and place our lives in our own hands. "
With that, Bing Lanyue left.
The hungry Bing Lanyue got on the carriage and made Ye Lang quickly rush towards the Red Dust Inn. Once she reached there, she alighted from the carriage and headed straight for the inn.
"Hurry up, get me some food, I'm starving!" When Bing Lanyue entered the door, she immediately shouted for food and drinks.
When she turned her head, she saw that the people outside the tavern were like ants, but the inside of the tavern was cold and cheerless, she did not even have time to collect the leftover food on the table. When Bing Lanyue and the others came back, they changed into their clothes and cleaned up.
There was only one person in the entire inn, and that person had her back facing Bing Lanyue and drank alone. Her back was extremely familiar.
"Bring the dishes over there and serve two bottles of wine later." Bing Lanyue frowned as she walked towards the table.
"You're here." The man turned his head, and who else could he see except Monarch Moli's face?
Bing Lanyue nodded her head, "Yes, I'm back. Monarch Moli, I saw everything that happened in the Imperial Palace.
"My condolences? "What's there to be sad about?" Monarch Moli laughed at himself and said: "I thought you would say congratulations to me. Congratulations to me for finally being conferred the title of 'Duke of the Auxiliary Nation'. Congratulations for finally being able to stay in the capital and not need to see me anymore."
Bing Lanyue felt her heart ache. His current state was truly a bit worrisome, Ye Lang brought the dishes and wine up, Bing Lanyue poured a cup of wine for him and said: "Empress Dowager, what is your intention?"
Monarch Moli looked at the wine cup in front of him and nodded, "Yes."
"Why?" Bing Lanyue asked.
"Because I want to take you away." Monarch Moli raised his wine cup and drank it all in one go: "I want to bring you away from here. The Jun Family's fiefdom is in the southern part of the empire, where there is wealth and no chaos of war.
Bing Lanyue shook her head, and rejected: "No, Monarch Moli, I cannot leave this place."
Monarch Moli looked coldly at Bing Lanyue, and only after a long while did he take out a cloth and place something on the table, and started to eat the dishes in front of him as if he was chewing on wax.
Bing Lanyue also immersed herself in eating. After eating for a while, she finally drank some wine.
The two of them were like a competition, and very quickly, they finished all the dishes in front of them. Only then did Monarch Moli push the cloth bag to Bing Lanyue, and said: "This is for you."
Bing Lanyue opened it doubtfully. It was the Merman's Tears bracelet from before, the same as the one Prince Yi gave her.
"Didn't you say that you threw it away? "Why …" Bing Lanyue was a little doubtful.
Monarch Moli poured a cup of wine for himself, downed it in one gulp, and said, "I like you, what does that have to do with you?"
Still as domineering as ever!?
Bing Lanyue saw that the way he spoke seemed to have returned to how it was before, and became relaxed.
"I'll take it." Bing Lanyue nodded her head, stuffed her hands into her pockets and said: "Ye Lang, get me a few side dishes and two bottles of wine to send over."
"Yes sir!" Ye Lang immediately went into the kitchen behind to prepare.
Bing Lanyue stood behind the counter and looked at the empty account book. She could not help but feel pain in her heart, the pain spreading to her heart, and finally, she sat down on the wooden chair behind her, breathing in shaky breaths.
Perhaps it was because of her innate dullness, but she now felt completely powerless.
Too tired.
Slowly, she closed her eyes, her mind was a mess, Red Dust Inn was her territory now, if she returned to her own territory, what was there to be afraid of? His tensed nerves loosened up, and all the strength in his body was sucked away.
When she opened her eyes again and saw the curtains on her bed, she subconsciously touched her blanket. Under the light of the red candle, Bing Lanyue was sure that it was her bed.
Bing Lanyue shrunk her body back into a comfortable position and sank into the blanket.
As she laid down on her back in front of her, Bing Lanyue subconsciously supported her leg on that person's body and even rubbed it with that person's body, finding a comfortable place to rest.
Un, it is indeed very lonely to be alone at night. What? Two people!?
"Ah!"
A pig-like voice resounded within the Red Dust Inn.
Below, Ye Lang and his brothers looked at each other and smiled. Then, they closed the door and cleaned up the tables.
On the bed in the room on the third floor, Bing Lanyue was curled up like a little quail in the corner of the bed, hugging the blanket, saying, "Monarch Moli, why are you on my bed?"
Monarch Moli shrugged his shoulders and said: "I've never slept before, do you really think it's necessary to sleep like a pig being slaughtered?"
Bing Lanyue lifted the blanket and looked carefully at the clothes on his body. Only when she saw the clothes neatly arranged on his body did she slightly relax.
"You, why are you in my bed?" The candlelight reddened her face.
Monarch Moli scratched the back of his head, frowned, and said as a matter of fact, "What else? "Where should I sleep?"
Bing Lanyue immediately choked. She saw that the mechanisms on the bed and all the mechanisms in the room had been activated, so she looked at Monarch Moli with astonishment and asked, "Why didn't you get killed by those mechanisms when you came in earlier?"
Monarch Moli nodded his head, and without caring about Bing Lanyue stopping him, he quickly stripped off all of his clothes, pointed to a dark red line on the edge of his left shoulder, and said: "It's injured, and it's not dead yet."
Bing Lanyue was both embarrassed and annoyed, and asked: "Sir Jun Fei, men and women should not be close, if you are injured you should not take off all of your clothes, although you have muscles, your Red Dust Inn is not a meat seller."
Monarch Moli looked at Bing Lanyue innocently: I am making you believe that, but come to think of it, your mechanisms are really not bad.
Bing Lanyue stealthily extended her hand under the pillow and touched empty air. She probed under the bed for a while while bare-chested, then took out a short blade and asked: "Are you looking for this?"
Bing Lanyue snatched the dagger out of her grasp like a wolf and tiger, and said, "Hurry up and get out of here, or I'll kill you."
Monarch Moli suddenly laid down, pretending to be dead as he snored, it was as if he wanted to kill me.
Bing Lanyue had a headache. She pulled out the dagger, and held it in her hand, releasing a cold light. But no matter what, she could not move her hand, and could not help but say: "Can you change to a different room? "I'm just a lecherous girl, if word of this got out, would I still have to be human?"
"Whooosh." Monarch Moli snored loudly, completely ignoring his.
"Hey!" Bing Lanyue's leg was lifted, but unexpectedly, a large hand suddenly grabbed onto Bing Lanyue's leg, and with a huge push, she lost her balance and fell beside Monarch Moli.
"Whew." A warm breath blew onto Bing Lanyue's face, and just as Bing Lanyue was about to jump up, Monarch Moli's large hands grabbed her small waist, and heavily pressed her into Monarch Moli's embrace.
Bing Lanyue felt her waist getting numb, creamy, and goosebumps all over. She raised her head in panic to look at Monarch Moli's face, afraid that he would become so beastly.
"Be more honest, otherwise I'll strip you naked and throw you out!" Monarch Moli's eyes were still closed, and his face was extremely tired.
Bing Lanyue immediately did not dare to move, she was truly afraid that Monarch Moli would move her hands and feet, Men, especially the wild and untamed men, you had better follow him a little, because no one knew when he would suddenly explode.
Not long later, Monarch Moli's breathing started to rhythm up. Bing Lanyue knew that this was the sign of him falling asleep, but she did not completely believe that Monarch Moli had fallen asleep at this moment.
