Chapter 1877: Find Something For Him to Do
Mo Lian kissed her ear and gently lay her flat on the bed while tucking the blanket around her. He touched her petite hand before putting on his outer robe and bolting out the door like lightning.
Outside the tavern, a crescent moon was hanging high up in the night sky.
Mo Lian’s figure had just appeared in the dark night when a black shadow landed beside him. “Master, Madam Jing hurried back to the Divine Province through the night with her two daughters.”
“Oh?” Mo Lian asked coldy, “How about Jing Linyao.”
“Jing Linyao is still in Wanlu Town.”
“Give her a lesson for daring to scheme against my Qiaoqiao.” Don’t think that you can scheme against anyone in this world.
“When does Master plan to return to the Divine Province?”
“What, even you want to meddle in my business?”
“This subordinate dares not!” The black shadow lowered his head in reverence and quickly explained, “This subordinate is only thinking that if Master plans to stay in the Six Prefectures for a prolonged period of time, this subordinate should make some arrangements. After all, we cannot have Your Highness continue putting up with this rundown tavern.”
“No need! We will be departing tomorrow.” Mo Lian waved it off and asked, “Oh, has Huifeng made contact?”
“Not yet.”
“When he comes back, have him first return to the Divine Province with a group.”
The black shadow was startled, but he then said with a nod, “Yes, Master.”
“My father seems very bored, so might as well let Huifeng and them find something for him to do. Otherwise, he might worry about things that don’t need his attention because he has nothing to do all day long.”
That subordinate’s heart instantly sank with a thump, and he quickly hung his head low.
“He sent you to my side, so of course you can also leave first to inform him of this.”
…
“Master, Tung has not been unfaithful ever since following Master!” The black-clothed man named Tung quickly knelt and beat his chest with his fist to express his loyalty.
Mo Lian sized him up with an icy gaze before saying with a nod, “Then I’ll leave this to you?”
“Yes! This subordinate will do his utmost to contact Huifeng and relay Master’s message to him without leaving out a single word.”
“Very good.” Mo Lian restrained his killing intent as he nodded lightly. “You should know what to do right now.”
“Yes! Rest assured Master, this subordinate will carry out your orders right away.”
Mo Lian’s lips raised into a sneer as the black-clothed man melded into the dark night. Jing Linyao, you are clever, but not clever enough!
At the same time.
Inside a very ordinary residence in Wanlu Town.
Jing Linyao leafed through the intelligence in her hands while sitting at the table by the window.
“Princess, the reason Madam is hurrying back to the Divine Province in the middle of the night must be to tell the Chief about this incident. Is it really okay for us not to hurry back?”
“What’s not okay about it,” Jing Linyao asked indifferently.
“Madam will certainly push all the blame onto you in front of the Chief.”
However, Jing Linyao merely curved her thin lips into a sneer. “Even if she doesn’t push all the blame onto me, will Father believe me?”
“This isn’t the first time she’s accused me wrongly. It’s fine once you get used to it.” Jing Linyao set down her teacup and placed that paper with the intelligence into the candle flame to burn into ashes.
“You think that Wang Limeng is so anxious to hurry back just to accuse me behind my back?”
Jing Linyao fiddled with the candle wick and turned to look at the maidservant beside her. She said with a smile, “She’s gone to plead with Father to save someone’s life.”
It went without saying whose life she wanted him to save.
