Chapter 847: Perhaps It Was to Return a Favor
as long as you give me all the treasures on the bear."An Xuetang shook her head. "I'm not selling bear bile, that's final. What I'm selling now are the things on this table. If you don't want them, d...These people following Mo Yunjing around weren't strangers. They had been with him for days, maybe even weeks. Some things didn't need Mo Yunjing to explain explicitly; a mere hint was enough for them to understand.
He looked at Yun Si lightly, "Get up. Write a letter quickly and have Yun Yi lead the people to evacuate."
After saying that, Mo Yunjing seemed to have thought of something and fell silent for a moment before saying, "Have the Yun Army withdraw completely from Nianyun City."
Niàn Yún City was conquered by An Xue Tang himself, he had no right to just give it away.
The North Border City... it's just him repaying his elder brother for those years of protection.
After he finished speaking, Mo Yunjing said nothing more. He lifted his foot and left directly.
Yun Si knelt on one knee for a moment, then reluctantly went back to writing the letter.
No wonder the prince had him come to this corner to explain. The prince is afraid that the princess will hear and feel sorry for him, and won't agree to him giving up the Northern Border.
Yun Si had the intention of going to An Xue Tang to file a complaint, and perhaps if An Xue Tang strongly opposed it, the outcome might change.
Perhaps the prince is repaying the crown prince's favor one last time.
Before the prince went to Bei Jiang, he was persecuted many times, and almost lost his life several times. It was the crown prince who saved him each time.
Now that the Prince willingly ceded Bei Jiang to the Crown Prince, he must have completely lost faith in him. Giving up Bei Jiang City so readily might be his way of repaying the Crown Prince's kindness once and for all.
If so, he had nothing more to say. However, he was quite confident that with their prince's strength, even if they lost several hundred thousand Northern Border troops, they might still be able to protect themselves.
Thinking of this, Yun Si immediately dismissed the idea of sneaking to complain to their wives. Instead, he went to regain his confidence and dispatched dark guards on horseback at full speed to the northern border.
Mo Yunjing originally wanted to return directly to Jingtang Courtyard, but as he was halfway there, a dark guard informed him that An Xuetang was currently at the gate.
He frowned and, with almost no hesitation, turned toward the door.
An Xuetang had already seen Liu Lan at this moment. Upon seeing her, Liu Lan almost burst into tears with excitement, "A Tang, A Tang, quickly give me the antidote, I need it."
An Xuetang stared at her expressionlessly, "I can give you the antidote, but what about the information"
Liu Lan was taken aback, but soon she understood what An Xue Tang meant.
That's right, An Xuetang said that to get the antidote, you need to exchange it for information about Mo Yunze.
But, she hadn't seen Mo Yunze these days at all. As a woman confined to the palace with no connections, how could she possibly find out about him
Seeing Liu Lan's expression, An Xue Tang immediately understood that Liu Lan didn't have any worthwhile news to share right now.
She let out a cold snort and said without a shred of mercy, "Shut the door."
After she finished speaking, she turned to walk back. Liu Lan rushed over wanting to grab An Xue Tang's arm. Kang'er wouldn't let her get close to An Xue Tang, so when she pounced, Kang'er immediately acted, pushing her hard backward.
The next moment, Liu Lan fell to the ground. She glared fiercely at Kang'er, "You lowly slave, do you know who I am How dare you attack me!"
Looking at her gritted teeth, An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes slightly, "This is the Beijang Prince's Mansion, not the harem. Concubine Liu wants to discipline people, she can't reach my people."
"After saying that coldly, An Xuetang continued to say to Kang'er, 'Except for this concubine, whoever dares to scold you, just fight back hard. Otherwise, what is the use of your kung fu' "
Kanger's mouth twitched, struggling to hold back a smile. "Yes, Your Highness."
"...."
Listening to the conversation between the master and servant, Liu Lan didn't dare to utter any more foul words.
She knew very well that each maidservant by An Xuetang's side was a skilled martial artist. If she were to be beaten, the injuries would surely be severe.
Seeing An Xuetang about to leave again, Liu Lan couldn't help but speak up, "A Tang, you... can you give me the antidote I... I am your..."
"Empress Liu!"
An Xuetang coldly interrupted her, turning her head and fixing Liu Lan with a pair of sharp, cold eyes. "Noble Consort Liu, don't forget your place. Some words once spoken can lead to disaster. Then it would be truly regrettable!"
Liu Lan's heart skipped a beat. She naturally understood what An Xue Tang meant. If she claimed to be An Xue Tang's biological mother while also being the Liu貴妃, this awkward relationship would be hard to explain. If it were spread by someone with ill intentions, she wouldn't even have to wait for the poison to take effect. The emperor, out of face, would likely kill her secretly and leave her without a proper burial.
Thinking of this, Liu Lan forcefully swallowed the words she was about to say. She indeed wanted to use her identity as Xue Tang's biological mother to appeal to her pity, but who knew she would be so heartless.
For someone like this, An Xuetang didn't want to waste time. Her icy eyes stared at her, "It's still the same condition. There are still some days before the poison takes effect. If you want the antidote, bring useful information in exchange."
Having said that, An Xue Tang turned and walked back. Liu Lan got up and wanted to say something, but Kang Er didn't give her a chance. Kang Er looked at her with terrifying ice-cold eyes, and Liu Lan didn't dare to move.
Kang'er had the mansion doors shut before returning to An Xue Tang's side.
At this time, Mo Yunjing had also walked over. Seeing Mo Yunjing, Kang'er silently retreated a few steps.
Seeing Mo Yunjing, An Xuetang's lips curled into a slight smile. "A-Jing, are you finished talking to Yun Si"
Seeing Mo Yunjing, An Xuetang realized she had dared to miss the conversation between Mo Yunjing and Yun Si. There must be something fishy going on.
Her housemate Ajing already knows about her hearing ability. Since she heard nothing, that means he and Yunsi purposely avoided talking about anything in front of her!
What on earth happened that would make them avoid her like this
An Xuetang silently pursed her lips.
Mo Yunjing walked over and naturally took her hand, "What is she here for"
"Of course, we want the antidote. But don't worry, Ah Jing, I have everything under control. Don't think too much about it."
"Hmm."
As long as what she did didn't threaten her safety, Mo Yunjing wouldn't usually interfere.
An Xuetang didn't know what she was thinking about at this moment. She stopped and turned to look at Kang'er, "By the way, Kang'er, you go over to Eleventh and the others first. I'll go with the Prince later, so tell Shou'er not to hurry back."
Those brothers have passed away, now that Eleventh is handling the funeral arrangements, she and Mo Yunjing should also go and take a look.
Kanger subconsciously looked at Moyunjing. Seeing that he didn't object, she nodded slightly, "Thank you, Princess."
Her voice was choked with emotion. After replying to An Xue Tang, she turned and hurried away.
Andue Xue Tang's heart was also a little uncomfortable. She looked up at Mo Yun Jing.
Mo Yunjing raised his hand and touched her head. This kind of parting, he was more adapted than her. After all, over the years, he survived because countless brothers had given their lives for him.and he instantly turned cold, about to stop him, but Ding Hua and Mo Jun Yi pulled him back."Young Master, can you bear to see a dignified Duke going in and out of the kitchen"Mo Junyi sighed helpless...
