Who would have thought that the yamen runner let out another long sigh. "Coroner Xiao was busy the whole day yesterday and just fell asleep."
Why did they have to serve under such a magistrate of the capital?
Liu Rumei's mouth twitched slightly. "I'll go and call Magistrate Xue!"
Nine times out of ten, that guy was faking it! All just to avoid going home. Was it really worth it?
Seeing this, the yamen runner's eyes were filled with helplessness. He quickly stopped Liu Rumei. "Miss Liu, leave this to us! The yamen is in a complete mess!"
If Miss Liu hadn't come, they would have had to summon up their courage to arrest someone from the Prince Guo'an's Mansion.
Although this idea was unrealistic and they only dared to think about it.
Liu Rumei couldn't help but rub her forehead. Seeing the helpless look on the yamen runner's face, she knew he wasn't lying. She could only sigh and walked in.
Sixi followed closely behind. Her round face was full of anger. "This guy is so shameless!"
Using such a dirty trick! Miss Liu's health hadn't fully recovered yet!
Ye Zhe was also speechless. If the prince found out about this, there would surely be a stir. Losing his wife and suffering losses at the same time, this was probably what this guy was like!
Liu Rumei came to the seat where Xue Zhan usually sat. Looking at the mess on the table, her face darkened even more.
The trivial and fragmented matters gave her a splitting headache. No wonder Xiao Heyuan was completely exhausted.
Xiao Heyuan was obviously a smart person. Hearing that Liu Rumei had come, he slept peacefully for a whole day.
Poor Liu Rumei had been busy in the yamen for a whole day, which made Sixi feel so heart - broken.
Fortunately, Mo Liandi came in time and rescued her.
Looking at Liu Rumei who was almost buried under the official documents, Mo Liandi's face was gloomy. He immediately said coldly, "Ye Zhe, bring Xue Zhan here!"
Ye Zhe immediately flashed out and bowed respectfully. "Yes!"
Who did this guy have to pick on but Miss Liu?
Liu Rumei took the tea that Sixi had brought and took a sip. She let out a long sigh of relief.
"Why did you come here?"
Mo Liandi pursed his lips and motioned for her to look up.
Seeing that it was already pitch - black outside, Liu Rumei couldn't help but shake her head helplessly. Then she told him about Ning Yan'er.
Mo Liandi smiled. His eyes were fixed on the calm Liu Rumei in front of him. "Liu Liu, do you want me to meet her?"
Sixi couldn't help but giggle and quietly stepped back a few steps to reduce her presence. The prince and Miss Liu were really getting more and more affectionate.
Liu Rumei didn't know what Sixi was thinking. Holding the tea in her hand, she said indifferently, "What does it matter to me?"
If he wanted to meet her, he could; if not, he could just ignore her. She was just passing on the message.
Seeing Liu Rumei like this, a look of disappointment flashed across Mo Liandi's eyes. But he still said calmly, "In the future, Liu Liu, you don't need to care about her or pay any attention to her."
He had thought that this woman would be more decent after being rejected many times. He didn't expect that she would even try to use Liu Liu.
Liu Rumei's mouth twitched slightly, but her expression remained unchanged. She nodded indifferently. "Okay."
But she always felt that Ning Yan'er wouldn't give up so easily!
Mo Liandi also knew that since Ning Yan'er had approached Liu Rumei, she probably wouldn't let it go easily.
Thinking of this, a cold look flashed across his eyes.
"If she comes to you again next time, Liu Liu, just push her to me."
Liu Rumei smiled and said, "Your Highness is being a bit too heartless."
Mo Liandi smiled. "I've only taken a fancy to one person in all these years, and she even looks down on me. I'm so busy with my own feelings. How can I take care of hers?"
So, anyone who tried to take her away from him would never get away easily!
Hearing this, a look of embarrassment flashed across Liu Rumei's eyes. She turned her head slightly, looking a bit awkward.
Why did she think he seemed so at ease?
Sixi, who was listening from afar, couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her black eyes were bent into crescent moons!
Ye Zhe was always quick. He soon dragged Xue Zhan over and threw him in front of them.
Xue Zhan was thrown heavily to the ground. His handsome face was full of anger. "You just wait for me! If anything happens to me, can you bear the responsibility?"
Mo Liandi said coldly, "Shirking official duties and being lazy. I also want to hear how you should bear the consequences?"
If he hadn't gone to the yamen when he found that Liu Liu hadn't come back for a long time, he probably wouldn't have known that this guy had set up Liu Liu!
Hearing this cold voice, Xue Zhan's face changed instantly. Looking back at the gloomy - faced Mo Liandi, his mouth twitched slightly. "Your Highness, why are you here?"
How could he have forgotten about this person? A single slip had caused eternal sorrow!
"It was an urgent situation. I originally thought of asking Xiao Heyuan to take over for a couple of days. Who knew that this guy would drag Miss Liu into it! I'll definitely teach him a good lesson another day! Miss Liu has just recovered from a serious illness. How can she be so exhausted?"
Holding on to the spirit of "better a friend in trouble than oneself", Xue Zhan had no pressure in shifting the blame to Xiao Heyuan! He looked so righteous!
This made the yamen runner beside him widen his eyes in disbelief. Was this shameless person really his superior?
He clearly remembered that it was Magistrate Xue himself who had mentioned Miss Liu and had said it so grandly!
How could he shift all the blame to Coroner Xiao in the blink of an eye?
But looking at the gloomy - faced Prince Guo'an, he immediately understood. Coroner Xiao wasn't wronged for taking this fall!
But how could Mo Liandi be so easily fooled? "Really?"
Xue Zhan nodded repeatedly. His appearance could only be described as "a sorry sight"!
"Of course! This Xiao Heyuan is really something! How could he push all the things onto Miss Liu?"
After saying that, he turned to Liu Rumei and said, "Miss Liu, don't worry. I will definitely give you an explanation for this! I won't let him off lightly!"
Liu Rumei's mouth twitched slightly. Xiao Heyuan was really unlucky to have such a superior!
Even Sixi didn't believe his words. Looking at his intact legs, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "I thought Magistrate Xue was seriously injured? How come..."
He looked so full of energy! This guy must be faking it!
Hearing this, Xue Zhan glared angrily at Sixi and lay on the ground boldly. "I have internal injuries! You little girl naturally can't tell!"
Seeing his shamelessness, Mo Liandi said indifferently, "Handle your own affairs properly. If you involve Liu Liu again, I'm sure Ye Zhe will be very willing to help you achieve your 'wish'!"
The threat in his words made Xue Zhan shiver. His plan was really unreliable! It had even tricked him!
"Got it, got it. Miss Liu has worked hard! I'll definitely come to thank you in person in a couple of days!"
