C100 (2/2)

The empress cast a glance at the palace maid by her side. She understood and didn't follow the empress to her chambers, but took advantage of the moment when everyone wasn't paying attention to follow the empress back to the palace banquet.

Since the palace maids could not see the emperor, they could only inform the crown prince of the news of Mo Feiye's return.

”You go back first.” When the crown prince found out that Mo Feiye was still alive, the relaxed expression on his face suddenly disappeared.

As the palace maid retreated, the crown prince lowered his gaze as he swirled the wine cup in his hands.

Mo Feiye was truly lucky, he took Tao Shan's full force palm and even fell into the river, yet didn't die even like this.

The crown prince finished the wine in his wine cup in one gulp and called the Chief Eunuch over, allowing him to bring the news that Mo Feiye was still alive to the emperor.

Everyone saw the Chief Eunuch speak a few words to the Emperor, and the smile on the Emperor's face instantly disappeared.

The Emperor waved his hands to dismiss the Chief Eunuch. After a while, he left with the Chief Eunuch as an excuse to get drunk.

With the emperor gone, the ministers naturally wouldn't stay any longer. They all left in groups of twos and threes.

As for the ministers who noticed that something was wrong, they had already sent people to investigate what had happened for the emperor to leave in such a hurry.

At this moment, in the empress's chambers, Mo Feiye was worried about handing Mo Ranran over to the people inside the empress dowager's palace.

He was a man, and in name, he was also Mo Ranran's brother.

They could only hand Mo Ranran over to the palace maids in the empress dowager's palace to help him bathe and change his clothes.

Jing Zhu and another palace maid supported Mo Ranran as they each took off her wet clothes.

Halfway through his undergarments, Jing Zhu saw the bright red Equinox Flower on Mo Ranran's shoulder with a single glance.

As he was undressing, Jing Zhu stared fixedly at the Equinox Flower as a hint of disbelief flashed past his eyes.

Seeing that, the palace maid could not help but ask curiously: ”Sister Jing Zhu, is there something wrong with the flower?”

”It's nothing, it's just that this flower is pretty. I just took a few more glances.” Jing Zhu retracted the look in his eyes and regained his calm.

The palace maid took another look and sighed in heartfelt admiration, ”She is indeed pretty beautiful.”

”Alright, stop looking. Hurry up and bring Miss Mo to take a bath. The imperial physician should be here in a bit.” Jing Zhu looked at the palace maid and changed the topic.

When the Imperial Hospital's Head of Imperial Hospital arrived, the two of them would help Mo Ranran settle everything.

At this time, Mo Feiye had also changed into a clean set of clothes. Seeing that the Imperial Hospital Head of Imperial Hospital had retracted his hand to check her pulse, he could not help but ask: ”How is Ranran now?”

”What did your brother do? Her Gu Worm had just been driven out, and her body that had been eroded by the Gu Worm had not even recovered before drinking alcohol. Furthermore, she drank such a strong alcohol, so even though her body had caught a cold, her body still naturally wouldn't be able to endure. ” Imperial Hospital head glanced at Mo Feiye, seizing the opportunity to begin training Mo Feiye, and venting all of his previous anger.

Mo Feiye lowered his head as he listened to the words of the Head of Imperial Hospital, and did not refute her.

”Alright, you don't have to worry about that. I'll prescribe a few medicines for her so that she won't touch the alcohol for the time being. She'll be fine after a few days of recuperation.” The Imperial Hospital Head of Imperial Hospital looked at Mo Feiye's worried face, and his anger started to dissipate.

”Go and fry the medicine and bring it over.” The passed the medicine formula to the assistant beside him.

The man took the medicine and left the empress's quarters.

The imperial physician's assistant had just left when the emperor arrived.

”Greetings, your Imperial Majesty.”

”Greetings, your majesty.” Everyone kneeled down.

”Get up.” The Emperor looked at everyone, and then his gaze landed on Mo Feiye.

”I actually have no idea when General Mo returned to the capital.” His voice was faint, but no one could tell whether he was happy or angry, and the aura around his body made it hard for people to breathe.

”We had just arrived. We had originally wanted to return home to visit father before entering the palace but after hearing about the celebratory feast, we entered the palace. We saw Ranran fall into the water halfway.” Mo Feiye's voice was not hurried nor slow, there was no panic.

”Did Miss Mo fall into the water?” The emperor's gaze slowly swept across Mo Ranran who was on the bed, and his brows furrowed slightly. He was previously brimming with vitality, how did he fall into the water in just a short while?

”I'll have to ask the Second Prince then.” Mo Feiye coldly swept his gaze across the silent Second Prince, a cold intent flashing past his eyes.

”What's going on?” The Emperor followed Mo Feiye's gaze and looked towards the Second Prince.

”When I saw that Miss Mo was about to fall to the ground, I wanted to help her up. But who knew that I would be scared of her, so I fell into the water.” Second Prince did not dare to look the emperor in the eye. Although he did not have the time to do anything, Mo Ranran had indeed been scared stiff and fell into the water.

”Is that so?” The emperor's eyes slightly narrowed, obviously not believing Second Prince's words.

”Father, everything that this son has said is the truth. I do not dare to hide anything.” Second Prince was so scared that he directly kneeled down, he didn't want to go back in.

”If I find out that you're lying to me, I won't forgive you.” The Emperor glanced at Second Prince who was kneeling on the ground, a look of displeasure flashed past his eyes.

”Mo Feiye, you did a great job attacking the Huns this time. Tell me, what reward do you want?” The emperor once again set his gaze on Mo Feiye.

”These are all things this humble subject should do. In terms of rewards, this humble subject wishes to seek an imperial decree bestowing marriage upon the emperor.” Mo Feiye looked at the Emperor, his low voice carrying a tinge of magnetism.
