”If this organization is related to the deceased crown prince, would he be faking his death?”

Mo Lianjin shook his head. ”First Brother Huang is the most broad-minded and has a heart of a myriad citizens, he would definitely not let the country become chaotic, and would not instigate others to commit crimes.”

Su Li could not help but be a little interested in Mo Liancheng. She rarely heard Mo Lianjin praise others and from his gaze, she could tell that he admired Mo Liancheng.

”Could that be someone else related to him?”

”Old Sixth and Brother Huang had the same mother, but Old Sixth was naive and had no interest in the affairs of the imperial court. When Brother Huang died, he was still young.”

”Is there anyone suspicious other than the Sixth Prince?”

Mo Lianjin remained silent for a while, before saying, ”This king doesn't know, but Senior Brother Huang treats everyone extremely well.”

Su Li sighed. Looking at him who had deeply furrowed his brows, he couldn't help but walk over, raising his hand to rub it, ”It's just a few Jun Zi Lan, it might not have any special meaning. You should go back and rest.”

”Yes.”

Mo Lianjin got up and took the opportunity to hold her small hand.

Su Li allowed him to lead the way as they walked towards the secret passage.

Along the way, she breathed in a few times before saying, ”Today, I met Mu Qingge.”

”Hmm?” He looked at her with a cold glint in his eyes. ”What have you been wronged about?”

”Nope.” Su Li quickly opened his mouth, afraid that if he said it too late, the man beside him would run to the Marquis Cheng'en Palace to cause trouble, ”But … Mu Qingge seems to know some of the things that happened to your mother back then. ”

Mo Lianjin tensed up, he suddenly stopped walking and stared straight at Su Li.

”She said if you want to know, then leave me and marry her.” Su Li's tone was heavy, after passing Mu Qingge's words back to him, he lowered his head and stared at his own feet.

Looking at her uncomfortable expression, Mo Lianjin suddenly let go of her hand. Just like before, he grabbed her by the collar and led her forward.

”Fifth Prince, you …”

”In this world, This King believes that only you can find out the truth about what happened back then. What Qingge knew, you will find out sooner or later.”

”You … ”You trust me that much?”

”Yes.” It was a simple voice, filled with unwavering trust.

Su Li was a little touched, ”As long as you trust me, I promise you, there will be a day when I find out everything that happened a few years ago.”

Mo Lianjin suddenly pulled, and Su Li immediately crashed into his embrace.

It was so painful that she gasped, tears welling up in her eyes.

”This King has never asked you, but do you still think This King is putting on an act with you?”

Su Li was speechless, his question caught her off guard.

Seeing that she did not answer, he tightened the arm around her waist, bent over, and pressed his lips down. ”Give This King an answer.”

Su Li's heart stopped, and his ten toes subconsciously shrank in.

”Yes …” ”Seriously.”

”Then to This King... ”What are your thoughts?”

Su Li swallowed his saliva. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw the pitch black secret passage and started to wander around.

Isn't it all in the bubble? When men and women express their feelings, must the scene be romantic?

What was she doing with him in this dark tunnel?

She refused to answer!

”Your Highness, something terrible has happened.” The flute hastily rushed over from the side of the secret passage, and just in time to see the two who were hugging each other, it hurriedly turned its head, and said while facing the wall, ”The Bei Yue diplomatic mission has been ambushed …”
