”He came after all. Why are you panicking?”

Just as State Grandmaster finished speaking, Mo Lianjin and Mo Lianlang walked in from outside.

Seeing that Su Li was also present, Mo Lianlang took the initiative to ask, ”Why are you here?”

Su Li was helpless, he could only say those words again.

”This king sees, you want to wait for Crown Prince, right?” Mo Lianlang obviously did not believe him, ”A woman's method of capturing others is truly terrifying.”

The corner of Su Li's mouth twitched. Why didn't this fellow say anything, why was men even more terrifying?

”Since you've lost your way, follow This King out of the palace later.” Mo Lianjin glanced at Su Li, his eyes shining like the sea of stars, unfathomable.

”Then, I'll have to thank Fifth Prince.”

As they spoke, the eunuch came over to lead the doctor away.

Mo Lianlang ran to the State Grandmaster and clicked his tongue in wonder.

”I really did not expect that Lord National Advisor's appearance would not change even after so many years. It truly makes one envious.”

Mo Lianjin allowed him to speak nonsense, but that daoist was unhappy.

”Sixth Prince, Lord National Advisor injured her eyes when she returned to the capital. I hope that Sixth Prince will behave himself.”

Mo Lianlang immediately turned to look at Mo Lianjin, his gaze filled with unease.

Others might not know about it, but he knew all about the incident from eight years ago like the back of his hand.

Everyone believes in the teacher, only fifth brother …

This time, the Imperial Advisor had returned to the capital under an assassination attempt. He was afraid that others would suspect his fifth brother, but fortunately, he had gone to the Fifth Brother's estate as a guest and slept there, so it was impossible for him to be the one who attacked the Imperial Advisor.

As he thought of this, his uneasiness gradually dissipated.

Mo Lianjin retracted her gaze, the corner of her lips curving up into a smile, like a ball of fog, that no one could see through.

”You're finally back.”

”Yes.” The Imperial Advisor replied indifferently.

”When you are free, count how many people's blood are on your hands.”

”What I have done is to follow the will of the heavens.”

Mo Lianjin raised his eyebrows, ”Destiny?”

”When we return to the capital in succession, it will be the will of heaven.”

”You are still guarding your destiny, but this king is no longer the little brat from back then.” Mo Lianjin retracted his gaze, and shot Su Li a glance, ”Let's go.”

Su Li nodded slightly, but before he left, he gave State Grandmaster a few more glances.

She always thought it was weird, but she didn't know what it was.

Mo Lianxuan still wanted to stay in the Venerate Heavens Sect for a while longer and didn't leave with the two.

When they were walking down the white jade stairs, Su Li lowered his head and frowned, his heart heavy.

Mo Lianjin walked to her side and watched her step into the air, but did not extend her hand out.

Only when she regained her senses and was about to lose her balance did she reluctantly reach out and grab the back of her collar.

His eyes held a hint of a smile. ”You don't know how to walk, when will you be able to fix that?”

It was clearly a concerned sentence, but the tone from his mouth changed.

Su Li stood steadily and slapped his hands away, ”Fifth Prince, walking blind is used to scold, not to teach.”

Mo Lianjin chuckled, and did not say another word.

Su Li caught up quickly and probed, ”Fifth Prince, do you know when State Grandmaster returned to the capital?”

”Why do you ask?” Mo Lianjin glanced at Su Li.

”I'm just curious.”

”Then, do you know that your curiosity will make it so that your head will fall to the ground at any time?”

Su Li's neck felt a chill, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva, then fawned on him and smiled.

”As long as you don't say anything, no one will know that I'm curious. Besides, I still have a mind to investigate cases for you and add fuel to the fire for your future!”

The corner of Mo Lianjin's mouth curled up as a trace of interest flashed past his eyes.
