The words' beloved son 'caused the faces of the princes and princes to change.

Mo Lianxuan clenched his fists. If he had reacted first, he would be the one being pampered by the father!

”Fifth Prince, this way please.” Eunuch Chen bowed and led the way.

Mo Lianlang sealed the king and could not stay in the palace any longer, so he could only give his fifth brother's help to Su Li and whisper, ”I'll leave fifth brother in your hands.”

Su Li nodded his head and supported Mo Lianjin, following Eunuch Chen into the back room of the Yunque Palace.

The two of them were brought into a bedroom. It wasn't too big, but it had everything.

It was precisely because of this that Su Li was a little suspicious. When he came, Mo Lianjin had told her that the Yunque Palace was a place used for banquets.

But this palace was obviously cleaned and prepared beforehand. Could it be that, regardless of whether the assassin would appear or not, the Emperor An would let Mo Lianjin stay here for the night?

Why?

Su Li suppressed his thoughts and pulled Mo Lianjin towards the bed. Eunuch Chen said a few words and then left.

She asked for candlesticks, towels, gauze, and a basin of hot water.

She looked at Mo Lianjin who had a pale face. Seeing that he did not object, she then pursed her lips and directly took off his clothes, pulling apart at both sides to reveal his wound.

He did not speak, and she fell silent with him.

The whole process was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

”Alright, the wound is a little too big. You should avoid oversized movements now. It's better to lie down and rest.” Su Li bandaged him up, and after he finished speaking, he turned to look at the rooms full of palace maids and eunuchs, ”Fifth Prince is resting, shouldn't you all be going out?”

The head eunuch replied, ”Fifth Prince and Fourth Miss are single men and women, in order to prevent the Fourth Miss's reputation from being tarnished, I will stay inside to take care of them, and the others will wait outside.”

Su Li frowned, but just as he was about to speak, he opened his mouth and said, ”En, that's fine.”

If he didn't have any objections, what else could she do?

”Don't worry, This King is fine.” Seeing her pull her face, Mo Lianjin knew that she was blaming himself for putting his life on the line just now.

”You're still saying that everything is fine?” Su Li raised his hand and pointed at his chest, ”If there's a next time, do you want this life of yours?”

”Of course.” Mo Lianjin said in a low voice, ”I don't want you to become a widow in the future.”

”…”

With a eunuch glaring at him covetously, Su Li withdrew his small fist that he wanted to smash him with. He stood up, went to a table and sat down.

It was probably due to the damage to his vitality that Mo Lianjin fell asleep in a short while.

Su Li did not dare to leave him. At this time, Qing Mu was not around, so the only person who could protect him was her.

He did not wake up until the evening when the palace maid came to pass on the evening meal.

The two of them were not very hungry, so they ate a little.

Only then did Su Li dare to leave the living room to go to the toilet.

However, there was a row of expressionless guards standing outside the hall.

Thinking back to her previous confusion, her scalp went numb and she hurried back to her bedroom.

Mo Lianjin was standing by the wooden window with his hands behind his back. Upon hearing her entering and exiting, he turned his head and waved at her.

Su Li walked over, but before she could ask, his hands had already wrapped around her hands, ”If … This King will not be able to endure tonight, so don't blame This King. ”

There was a hidden meaning in his words, but she could not understand a word he said.

”What else are you hiding from me?”
