C47 (2/2)
”You're wrong, I'm not here to send you off, I'm here to follow you.” Mo Ranran squinted slightly, as if he was going to send her off.
Hearing that Mo Ranran was not here to send off the crown prince, Mo Qingqing's mouth had yet to rise, but Mo Ranran's next sentence, caused her smile to freeze on her face.
Mo Qingqing turned his gaze to the crown prince and looked at him pitifully.
”Chenqie also wants to follow elder sister to the border and take care of your highness.”
If Mo Ranran could go, so could she.
”She is my royal father's doctor. Unlike you, you are my wife. You only need to stay in the capital and wait for my return.” No matter what, he was still a man. How could he let his woman go to the border to suffer?
”Your Highness, please let me go with you.” Mo Qingqing clenched his hands tightly, and his voice had a bit of a spoiled tone.
”I say, it's already past time, should we leave?” Mo Ranran leaned on the carriage window and watched the two of them quietly.
The crown prince raised his head and looked at the sky, not daring to delay any further, and immediately ordered for Mo Qingqing to be sent back to the crown prince's residence.
He mounted his horse and the team set off.
They travelled for several days without stopping. Everyone looked exhausted. The Crown Prince told them to stop at an inn to rest for the time being.
”Let's stay in this inn tonight.”
For the convenience of travelling, everyone changed into casual clothes and pretended to be a merchant in the herbal business.
The Lady Boss was a rather enchanting woman. Ben was sitting in the inn and flicking a fly out of boredom. When he saw that a guest had arrived, he immediately became spirited and came out to greet them. ”Esteemed guests, please come in.”
As the group entered the inn, the Crown Prince's subordinate took out two taels of silver and threw it into the Lady Boss's hands.
”Lady Boss, get someone to prepare a few tables of food for us and feed the horses outside the door.”
”Alright.” When the Lady Boss saw the two silver taels in her hands, her eyes lit up.
After stuffing the silver into his pocket, he smiled as he prepared to eat.
With so many people suddenly here, it would take some time for the food to come out.
Everyone sat down, and the waiter brought out a pot of tea, pouring water for them one by one.
When he reached the crown prince's table, the waitress took the teapot from him.
Taking the teapot over, the Lady Boss first poured a pot of tea for the crown prince. ”Esteemed guests, where are you heading?”
”We're going south.” The deputy general beside the crown prince said.
”I advise you to not go to the south. There is a plague in the south. I heard that a lot of people have died.” The Lady Boss said as she poured water for him.
”Plague?” The deputy general's eyes slightly flickered, pretending that he didn't know anything.
”Yeah, I heard that people who get pestilence first get a fever, then their whole body gets rotten, and when they get rotten, they die.” The Lady Boss poured Mo Ranran a cup of tea.
Mo Ranran picked up the tea up, and took a whiff, his fingertips rubbing the surface of the tea cup, ”Boss, what tea leaves do you use to make your tea? It smells good. ”
”The tea leaves grown in the backyard of our house aren't worth much, if young lady likes them, I still have a few packets of stir-fried tea leaves. I can give them to young lady.” The Lady Boss smiled as she walked in front of Mo Feiye and gave him a coquettish look.
It was just pouring some tea, his entire body was almost sticking to Mo Feiye.
Mo Ranran squinted slightly as he pressed his finger against the wall of the teacup. With a flick of his finger, the teacup flew towards the owner's wrist.
Ah!” The Lady Boss was in pain, so she purposely fell towards Mo Yeyue.
With a cold expression, Mo Feiye dodged the lady boss' pounce and with a 'plop' sound, she fell onto the ground.
”Lady Boss, if you pour the tea then pour the tea. Why do you want to seduce my brother? My brother hasn't even gotten married yet, yet you, a middle-aged woman, have the nerve to think about it?” Mo Ranran sat on the table, his finger lightly tapped on the table, an innocent smile plastered on his face, but his words were extremely lethal.
The Lady Boss's expression turned hideous for a moment before disappearing very quickly. She stood up from the ground and smiled at everyone before turning to leave. ”Miss, your tea is empty. I'll go pour another cup for you.”
The deputy general by the side said unhappily, ”Miss Mo, your words are too harsh.”
They were still in the Lady Boss's inn, so how could they make the Lady Boss look so embarrassed?
A few generals who had seen Mo Feiye in a rage silently looked at the assistant general with sympathetic eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Feiye swept his cold gaze over, and instantly, the deputy general did not dare to speak anymore.
”Don't be afraid, my brother has a good temper. He won't do it. Come have a cup of tea to calm us down.” Mo Ranran stood up with a smile, and brought the tea in front of Mo Feiye to the vice general, who looked at him sincerely.
The assistant general could clearly feel that the killing intent around Mo Feiye had grown even stronger.
”Drink it.” Mo Ranran urged.
After the assistant general shakily drank the tea, Mo Ranran's eyes slightly pricked up as he sat back down.
The imposing aura in the air was retracted by Mo Feiye, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Just as one person was about to bring tea over, they were struck by a stone thrown by Mo Ranran.
Immediately, a few people who wanted to drink their tea stopped and looked at Mo Ranran silently.
Although the crown prince was slightly dissatisfied with Mo Ranran's methods, he did not choke on Mo Ranran.
After interacting with him for the past few days, he had almost understood Mo Ranran's personality.
If you were kind to her, she would be kind to you. On the other hand, if you were rude to her, she would be even more unreasonable than you!
”The tea is poisonous, you can't drink it.” Opening his red lips, Mo Ranran asked unhurriedly.
