C106 (1/2)
The maidservant fell to the ground with a thump, blood pouring out from her throat.
She didn't even have the time to struggle, and directly breathed her last.
The people around him were all scared silly. It took them a long time before they managed to react. One by one, they kneeled down in fear with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound.
Greenwood slowly withdrew the dagger in his hand.
”This king doesn't care where you came from. If you want to properly stay in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, then don't be like her and use underhanded methods to try to seduce the owner.”
Mo Lianjin swept his gaze across everyone present maliciously, his entire body releasing a cold chill.
”Yes.” A room full of maidservants responded with a pale face.
Qing Mu and his men quickly dragged him out. The bloodstains on the walls were all dried up. It was as if no one had ever died.
Mo Lianjin retracted his cold gaze and met Su Li's eyes.
He opened his mouth, but did not know what to say.
Su Li raised an eyebrow, ”It looks like some people aren't willing to wait any longer after I enter your Fifth Prince's Mansion.”
”Just now, This King killed someone, aren't you afraid?”
Su Li laughed, and looked towards the pouring rain, ”What are you afraid of? I'm not them. ”
Mo Lianjin's face darkened. Was this woman referring to them? Would she not seduce him like they did?
Su Li picked up a pair of chopsticks and was about to fill his stomach.
However, before the dishes even began to eat, a few people rushed out from the curtain of rain.
The leader was Eunuch Chen. Even though he was wearing a rain cape, he was still drenched.
”This old servant greets Fifth Prince. The Emperor has issued an urgent decree to summon Fifth Prince to the palace for a meeting.”
Su Li put down his chopsticks, a look of doubt flashing across his face.
In such harsh weather, Emperor An had even sent someone from the Eunuch Chen to invite Mo Lianjin to the palace. What exactly happened? Or could it be that Emperor An found out about her private investigation of his case?
”What is it?” Mo Lianjin frowned, and asked coldly.
”Fifth Prince, follow this old servant into the palace and we'll know.”
”Who else?”
”General Su, Marquis Cheng'en, Second Prince, Crown Prince, Prime Minister and the other ministers …”
Hearing that, Su Li heaved a sigh of relief, from the looks of it, it had nothing to do with the case file.
”Allow this king to change his clothes first.” Mo Lianjin stood up, looked at Su Li, and walked towards the inner hall.
Su Li placed an item inside his sleeves and followed her into the inner hall.
Su Li took out his needle bag and indicated for Mo Lianjin to sit, ”Your injury has not healed yet, if you overwork yourself, you will easily ooze blood, and if the blood remains in your chest cavity, then there will be a big problem. I will give you a shot to ensure that nothing will happen to you within six hours.”
”Yes.” Mo Lianjin sat on the edge of the bed, exposing his sexy and tight abdomen that was connected to a person's line of fish.
Su Li's technique was very fast, and it only took the time for a cup of tea to boil.
Mo Lianjin pulled up his undergarments and changed into his court attire.
”Su Li.”
Su Li kept his needle bag and raised his head to look at him, ”Is there anything else?”
”This is a banknote, I'll give it to you first.”
Su Li's eyes instantly turned into crescent moons. She received the silver, and then took out the thing hidden in her sleeves and handed it over.
”Here's a steamed bun for you. I'm afraid you're hungry, I just stole it.”
Mo Lianjin's gaze fell on the steamed bun and for a moment, the softness in his heart was touched. When he looked at Su Li again, her smiling, curved eyes were like a beam of light, illuminating the darkness in his heart …
Just because of a steamed bun?
Did he really want her?
Mo Lianjin's ears grew hot. He suddenly reached out and snatched the steamed bun over, ”There are still people at my place. Even if I'm not here, you can go to sleep in peace.”
