Xue Zhan didn't disappoint Mo Liandi. Just a few days later, he brought back a letter from Xue Changsheng.
" Bai Hanfei is beside that old man, so the old man can't get away. He asked me to give this letter to you," Xue Zhan said.
Mo Liandi nodded and took the letter. After a quick glance, he quickly made a decision in his mind.
Xue Zhan sat on one side quite leisurely. "What did that old man say?"
" Bai Hanfei wants to make a deal with this king," Mo Liandi said and then told Xue Zhan exactly what was written in the letter from Xue Changsheng.
Xue Zhan couldn't help sneering. "Does this guy think we're fools?"
Wanting to cooperate with Mo Liandi? Was this really not a trap?
The Bai family and Mo Yun rose and fell together. How could they be willing to abandon this powerful backer?
Moreover, the Bai family must have played a part in what happened back then. What made him think that Mo Liandi would help him?
"This must be a trick of the two of them, aiming to lure you into the trap!"
What a sly old fox! He had played the ruse of feigning defeat quite well!
However, Mo Liandi just hooked his lips into a smile. "No, Bai Hanfei is serious about this. Mo Yun can't tolerate the slightest flaw. Bai Hanfei has already become a useless piece in his eyes!"
Bai Hanfei wanted to send Bai Haoyu away to leave a way out for himself. But in doing so, he completely lost Mo Yun's trust!
Mo Yun was ruthless and would never show mercy to Bai Hanfei!
"Tell your father to be careful. Bai Hanfei can be used, but must be used with caution."
Bai Hanfei was a coward. If things were exposed, he might just try to save his own skin. Such a person could be exploited, but only in the right way.
Xue Zhan nodded. "I understand."
Mo Liandi nodded and then turned to Ye Zhe beside him. "Are all the things ready?"
Ye Zhe bowed respectfully. "Please rest assured, Your Highness. Mo Yun's crimes will be made public within a day!"
Only by using the name of purging the emperor's side could they act in a justifiable way and avenge the old prince!
Just as Ye Zhe said, within a day, the truth that Mo Yun had plotted against the previous emperor, killed his elder brother, and committed treason spread like wildfire.
This made Mo Yun extremely angry. But amidst his anger, there was also a bit of fear. These news had really emerged suddenly within a day, not only in the capital but also spread throughout the whole Daliang.
It showed how powerful Mo Liandi's influence was!
"Presumptuous!" Mo Yun's face was full of fierce coldness. "How dare they slander and frame the emperor? They really don't know what death is!"
Eunuch Xu beside him shivered. A sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart, but he still summoned up the courage to speak. "Your Majesty, the current rumor is out of control. It must be the work of that villain. But Your Majesty is the true dragon emperor. Such petty tricks will surely have no effect."
Mo Yun snorted coldly and looked at Eunuch Xu kneeling beside him with cold and sinister eyes. Did he really think he was stupid?
"Pass on my order. If anyone spreads rumors again, kill them without mercy!"
Eunuch Xu was so scared by this cold look that his heart skipped a beat. His eyes were full of uneasiness, but he still nodded respectfully. "Yes, this servant will go and do it right away."
After saying that, he hurriedly left.
But just as he took a few steps, Mo Yun's cold voice came from behind. "Stop."
Eunuch Xu was startled and quickly knelt down.
Mo Yun's voice came slowly from behind. "There's no need to go."
Eunuch Xu was full of confusion in his heart, but he was smart enough not to say much and respectfully retreated.
After a while, a black - clothed man appeared beside Mo Yun. Mo Yun leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear. The man immediately nodded respectfully and disappeared in a flash.
A sinister look flashed across Mo Yun's eyes. Since someone had left the capital, there was no need for them to come back in this lifetime.
...
In Quanzhou.
From time to time, angry shouts came from a quiet small courtyard. "Stinky brat, are you doing this on purpose?"
"Do you know how much time it takes for me to collect these herbs?"
"Get out of here right now! The farther the better!"
"I must be blind to have taken a fancy to you, you little scoundrel!"
Yun Xi looked at Ye Lin roaring in front of him with a smile in his eyes, showing no trace of fear at all.
"It's shameful to go back on one's words!"
"Since you've promised, you have to see it through. It's your honor that I'm willing to stay by your side!"
"Let me tell you, I'm extremely talented. This was just an accident. Let me try again. I'm sure I can succeed!"
Ye Lin looked at the ruined herbs in Yun Xi's hand, full of despair and pain in his heart. He had been smart all his life, but unexpectedly, he had been tricked by two little kids.
"Where's your brother? Call him over here!"
These two little brats looked exactly the same, and he had been deceived by them.
Yun Xi coughed dryly. He took out a folding fan from somewhere and covered his face. When he took it away, his carefree look had been replaced by a gentle and shy one. "What do you want with me?"
It was already hard to tell them apart, and now that they were imitating each other, it was even more impossible.
Looking at this scene, Ye Lin only felt a splitting headache.
Yun Xi then said with a smile, "My brother is learning autopsy from Liu Liu and is too busy. I'll learn your skills. My brother and I are twins. I won't be much worse!"
"It was my fault to trick you before. But you were so arrogant that I had to ask my brother to step in. Now, just accept your fate!"
Ye Lin was so angry that he trembled all over. After holding back for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, then I'll grant your wish!"
There would come a day when you'd cry. He didn't believe that he couldn't handle a kid.
Yun Xi's face was full of smiles, but there was a trace of seriousness in his eyes. "Don't worry. I won't disappoint you."
Next door, Si Xi couldn't help chuckling when she heard the commotion in the yard. "Serves him right!"
Liu Rumei shook her head helplessly. She didn't know when Yun Xi had become interested in medicine. He had even dragged Yun Li along and played the trick of swapping the prince with a cat!
"If you're willing, Ye Lin probably won't mind teaching one more person."
It was always good to have more skills when walking in the jianghu.
But Yun Li just shook his head with a gentle smile. "No need. Yun Xi is learning medicine, and I'll learn autopsy from Sister Liu. It's good like this."
He always remembered the purpose for which Liu Rumei had brought them back. He didn't want to disappoint her.
Hearing this, Liu Rumei smiled sweetly and reached out to touch his head.
When Mo Liandi came in, seeing this scene, a gentle light flashed in his eyes.
Their children might be like the Yun Xi and Yun Li brothers.
"Not busy?"
Liu Rumei's voice brought Mo Liandi back to his senses instantly. "There's nothing much to do."
