2636 She Did Not Believe Them
After spending so many days together, Caixiu and Caiqi couldn’t be said to particularly understand this young crown prince consort, but at least they had grasped her temperament.
The crown prince consort had always been open and aboveboard, and she acted straightforwardly. They just had to carry out her instructions as is.
The crown prince consort was also a very generous person. She always gave astonishing rewards whenever they handled matters well.
Caixiu nodded at her orders, and she left together with Caiqi.
Palace Lady Jing stepped forward and said with a salute, “This servant will also take her leave first.”
His Highness the Crown Prince nodded nonchalantly. Once he saw that everyone had retreated and closed the door, he scooped the little fellow into his arms and hugged her tightly.
“Qiaoqiao.” Mo Lian nuzzled the little fellow as he hugged her. “Don’t grieve or be sad, okay?”
Qiao Mu raised her petite head pridefully. “I won’t get sad because of unnecessary people.”
Mo Lian looked down and gazed at her earnestly. When he saw that her mood was indeed stable, he nodded with a smile. “Okay.”
He pulled her over to the table and sat down. He touched the teapot. However, he creased his brows when he felt the temperature.
He directly pushed that teapot toward the middle of the table.
The little fellow took out a teapot of spiritual tea from her inner world. She then fished out two white jade porcelain cups and poured a steaming cup of spiritual tea for Mo Lian and herself.
“Lian, drink.” Qiaoqiao handed the cup over to Mo Lian.
Mo Lian took it with a smile. He downed it in one gulp.
After such a long day, they finally had the time to sit down and drink a cup of tea.
Qiaoqiao sprawled on the table. She picked up the teapot Mo Lian had pushed to the side earlier and lifted the lid to take a sniff.
“There’s a problem?” Mo Lian was startled. He set the little fellow on his thighs.
He didn’t think much of it earlier. He had pushed the teapot aside because it had cooled down, but from the little fellow’s action, it was obvious that she did not completely trust the people in the Mu Clan.
Qiaoqiao shook her petite head. “There isn’t any problem.”
“The people from the Mu Clan won’t be that dumb. They wouldn’t do something this obvious.”
Plotting to harm the crown prince and the crown prince consort was a huge crime punishable by clan extermination. They wouldn’t do that unless the entire clan didn’t want to live anymore.
The little fellow pursed her petite lips and took out a jar of crispy peanuts from her inner world. She murmured while munching, “What should we do next?”
Mo Lian couldn’t resist chuckling. He looked down at this little lass. “Didn’t Old Master Cang tell you to go find him after we settle in?”
“Humph.” Qiaoqiao stopped grabbing peanuts from the jar she was holding. “Just because he tells me to, doesn’t mean I have to go find him!”
Mo Lian analyzed with a smile, “I’m guessing that the old master is definitely going to give you good stuff in private to placate you.”
Qiaoqiao’s eyes lit up. She immediately put on a reluctant expression and said dourly, “Fine then, I’ll give him a chance to talk.”
Mo Lian was practically about to laugh out loud. He rocked his wifey back and forth. “That’s right, the old sir is rather tactful.”
As the two of them spoke, there was a ruckus at the entrance to the southern room. The voices were so loud that it was difficult for the two to pretend not to have heard them.
Mo Lian creased his brows. He exchanged glances with the little fellow.
The crown prince was about to release his grip and pull the little fellow up. He planned to go out and look, yet who knew that the door would actually get rudely shoved open with a bang.
A tall and voluptuous young servant girl suddenly appeared at the door.
