C48 (1/2)
Just as he was about to speak up and remind the others, they saw Mo Ranran shake his head, and looked at the waiter behind him, signalling him not to speak anymore.
”Waiter, go to the kitchen to hurry them up, why haven't the dishes arrived yet? ”My young master is hungry.” That person instantly understood and turned his head to the waiter, wanting to say goodbye.
The waiter was far away, and did not see the look in Mo Ranran's eyes, he only thought that they were really hungry, and got up to go to the kitchen, ”I will go and rush them.”
”Do you think this tea is poisonous?” The deputy general turned to look at the imperial physician sitting beside him.
The imperial physician picked up the cup and examined it before shaking his head. ”I'm not good at anything, so I didn't notice there was any poison in the tea. Since Miss Mo said there'd be poison, we shouldn't drink it for safety's sake.”
On the way here, they had witnessed Mo Ranran's medical skills for themselves. Since Mo Ranran said that there was poison, then there must be poison.
Actually, it wasn't that the imperial physicians weren't skilled, but rather that they only treated the emperor and the imperial concubines in the imperial palace on a daily basis. They didn't have a deep understanding of the methods used in the martial arts world.
If you put it into the tea water, ordinary people would not be able to smell it, nor taste it. When it enters your stomach, it will not immediately act up, but once you use your Qi, you will suffer a backlash and will not be able to circulate your Qi. Mo Ranran's voice wasn't loud, and happened to be loud enough for everyone to hear.
Mo Ranran's table of tea was poured last, other than the assistant general, no one else had drank this tea, but the other tables were not so lucky, most of the people had already drank their tea, some had even finished drinking their tea.
”If you know that it's poisonous, then why did you advise me to drink it?” At the table, the only deputy general who had drunk some tea had his face turn black.
”Because your mouth is broken.” Mo Ranran revealed a big smile, she was a vengeful person.
Although the assistant general could not understand what the words meant, from Mo Ranran's smile, he could roughly guess that she was taking revenge for him speaking up for the Lady Boss.
The crowd was glad that they did not say anything.
The assistant general was humiliated by Mo Ranran, but he did not dare to get back at him, and could only change the topic.
”Your Highness, what should we do next?”
The crown prince did not speak, and only cast his gaze towards Mo Ranran. It was unknown what his pitch-black eyes were thinking. After a long while, he opened his mouth and asked her: ”Ranran, what do you think?”
Mo Feiye frowned. Starting from then, the crown prince's attitude towards Ranran seemed to have changed.
”We've used up a lot of silver in the past few days. Since someone has come to deliver it to our doorstep, how can we let him go?” Mo Ranran squinted his eyes. For such a large inn, the Lady Boss must have a rich family fortune.
”As ordered officials of the imperial government, it's not good for us to take advantage of them.” A little general said carefully.
”We are carrying this black shop out for the people who are passing by. We are doing a good deed, not taking advantage of the situation.” Mo Ranran spoke with all seriousness, causing everyone to be startled when they heard him. Although they felt that something was amiss with these words, but because of Mo Feiye, no one dared to speak up.
”Dinner is coming.” As the waiter shouted, the dishes were served.
Very quickly, the table was filled, everyone looked at the alluring and fragrant dishes, but did not touch the chopsticks, but only silently looked at Mo Ranran.
”Why aren't you eating and looking at me?” Mo Ranran raised his eyebrows, as he slowly picked up a pork chop and placed it on his bowl.
Everyone looked at each other before they began to move their chopsticks.
As she ate, she suddenly felt a pork chop in her bowl. Mo Ranran raised her head and saw that the crown prince had not taken back his chopsticks.
”You've worked hard on this trip.” The Crown Prince gave her a faint smile.
The Crown Prince was after all, the son of the royal family, and was pretty handsome. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so infatuated with Mo Qingqing that he would have to marry him.
Without waiting for Mo Ranran to speak, a pair of chopsticks grabbed the ribs from her bowl.
Mo Ranran turned his head and saw the gloomy expression on Mo Feiye's face.
The crown prince narrowed his eyes and looked at Mo Feiye with unfriendly eyes.
”Mo Feiye, I gave that to Ranran.”
”She doesn't like this.” Mo Feiye calmly tossed the rib bone to the soldier beside him.
Soldiers:...
The crown prince looked at Mo Ranran, she was even holding onto a pork chop with her chopsticks and said, ”I think she likes to eat it.”
Mo Feiye's eyes slightly narrowed, the corner of his mouth slightly twitched, and quickly stuffed the ribs on his chopsticks into Mo Feiye's bowl, ”Big bro, I won't eat it if you want to eat it.”
Looking at the ribs in the bowl, Mo Feiye's expression eased up by quite a bit while the crown prince's expression darkened.
”Also, don't call her Ranran, she isn't close to you.” Seemingly feeling that the crown prince's face was not dark enough, Mo Feiye added fuel to the fire.
The crown prince was so angry that he slapped his chopsticks, causing the entire table to tremble, and his sinister gaze swept towards Mo Feiye.
After a while, the Crown Prince got up and went upstairs.
A few assistant generals who were following the crown prince glanced at each other and followed him upstairs. Mo Feiye, on the other hand, calmly picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed it into Mo Ranran's bowl.
”Yes.” Mo Ranran responded indifferently. He picked up the pork chop and ate it in a few bites.
After dinner, Mo Ranran asked the waiter to prepare a bucket of hot water for her before he went upstairs.
Very quickly, the waiter brought the hot water up. The Crown Prince's room was right next to Mo Ranran's room, every single move of Mo Ranran's, as long as he paid attention, he would be able to hear it.
The assistant general who was talking to the crown prince, upon seeing that the crown prince was silent, could not help but ask in a low voice, ”Your Highness, are you alright?”
”Nothing, where were we?” The Crown Prince replied slowly.
