Moqin was imprisoned on the carriage.

In order to prevent him from asking for help, Cui Yuzhen ensured that he would not see any outsiders on the way.

The carriage traveled northwest quickly, deftly bypassing the heavily guarded city.

Occasionally, there will be a stop in the wilderness.Only then was Moqin allowed to get out of the car and sit for a while by the fire.

Unsurprisingly, the driver was a familiar face.

As the most loyal personal guard of the prince, Wei Ming has been very wary of Mo Qin ever since he met him.

But for some reason, when they met again this time, the other party ignored Mo Qin's existence from beginning to end.

He just strictly followed Cui Yuzhen's orders.Not even a look was given to him.

On the other side, the prince sat on a small stool and covered Mo Qin's entire body in his coat.

In front of the tall man, Mo Qin was as tall as a child. He was completely wrapped up on Cui Yuzhen's chest, revealing a red face.Like a treasure in my heart.

Cui Yuzhen's face shone with fire, his eyes were heavy, and he talked softly about the residence he had prepared in the northwest.

It describes how warm, luxurious and pleasant the scenery is.

Mo Qin huddled in his arms boredly, feeling the steady rhythm of the other person's heart, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

----

Knowing that there would be no chance of escaping on the road, Mo Qin simply gave up resistance.

But he was still angry after all when he was kidnapped from the capital for no apparent reason.Along the way, he ignored Cui Yuzhen and unilaterally declared a cold war with him.

The natural features and scenery in the northwest are very different from those in the capital, and they are also different from the grasslands that Mo Qin once visited.

Especially in autumn, the depressed hills and fields give the border town with sparse vegetation an even more intense desolate look.

It was dusk when Moqin and the others entered the northwest boundary.The brilliant and beautiful afterglow of the setting sun spread across the land, and half of the golden ball fell just under the distant hills, as if this place was the end of the world.

What is meant by "the solitary smoke is straight in the desert, and the sun is setting in the long river".Poems and literati throughout the ages have described the scenery of the frontier fortress in their works, but none of them is as magnificent and intuitive as seeing it with your own eyes.

----

After ten days of turbulence, we were finally able to see the tower of Jianyue City.

Jianyue City is the largest city in Yuebei Pass.The permanent population in the city is more than 2, which is a lot for a region that is constantly invaded by Jin soldiers.

In the past six months, the number of merchants doing business in the city and the number of residents moving from other places have increased rapidly, all thanks to the prince's presence and the order he established.

After entering the city, Cui Yuzhen took Mo Qin into a courtyard with an ordinary appearance.

Many people in the other courtyard were either strangers or familiar to Mo Qin.

Some of them were dressed like traffickers and lackeys, some looked like ordinary guards, and some were servants who had served Mo Qin in the East Palace.

After Cui Yuzhen's introduction, Mo Qin learned that these were secret guard leaders that Cui Yuzhen had carefully cultivated over the years, and belonged to an organization called "Eighteen Kills."It can be used as both a killing knife and a spying eye. It can do almost everything.

Entering the front hall, Mo Qin sat on the main seat next to Cui Yuzhen.

One of the girls named Fulian stepped forward and bowed to him, saying, "Long time no see, Mr. Mo."

Mo Qin recognized that she used to be a palace maid in the small kitchen of the East Palace, and he had a good impression of her, so he said hello to her:

"It's you, Miss Fulian. Are Lingsu and the others okay?"

Fulian subconsciously glanced at Cui Yuzhen, who was sitting aside, and said, "Ling Su disobeyed His Highness's order, which is tantamount to betrayal. She is no longer in the organization."

Mo Qin was stunned after hearing this, thinking of the last time the Queen and Ling Su plotted against him, but they accidentally made the Emperor appreciate him.

He looked at Cui Yuzhen who was sipping tea with his eyes lowered, and a complicated feeling surged in his heart----

Lingsu took refuge in the queen, ostensibly because she was worried about the prince, but in fact it was a betrayal of her master.

But what about him?Cui Yuzhen was a sinister and despicable spy from the moment he stole the secret message, but Cui Yuzhen spared his life.

Since then, he may have not finished paying him what he owed him...

Cui Yuzhen seemed not to notice the complicated look in Mo Qin's eyes, and ordered calmly and indifferently: "From now on, Fulian will take care of you personally. She is both your maid and secret guard. You can tell her anything when you get there. .”

Mo Qin frowned slightly and asked, "What does 'get there' mean? Do you want to send me further away?"

Cui Yuzhen: "There are still Jinyiwei spies in Jianyue City. If you stay here, you will be discovered by them sooner or later. Don't worry, you will definitely live comfortably in the place I have prepared for you."

As he spoke, he stood up.After Mo Qin is settled, there are still many matters in the northwest that need to be reported to him and waited for him to handle.

Before leaving, he turned sideways and said to Mo Qin with a handsome and indifferent profile: "At least, no one can order you to die anymore."

Mo Qin didn't answer and watched Cui Yuzhen's back disappear from sight.

Finally, I let out a long sigh, not knowing why.

On the second day, Cui Yuzhen did not see Mo Qin off in person. Instead, he sent Wei Ming to drive and asked Fulian to take him out of the city.

After driving for half a day, the carriage stopped in a desolate place without a human presence.

Mo Qin opened the curtain and got out of the car. What came into view was a Jiangnan mansion with white walls and blue tiles, which was really unusual in the dusty northwest.

The mansion is not big, but there is something special inside.

When you walk into the gate, you can see the green grass and bright flowers growing in the courtyard. A clear ditch flows happily around the entire courtyard, bringing life to everything.

In the center is a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits. Needless to say, there is no need to talk about the interior decoration.What's rare is that you can see the scenery shaded by green trees outside from the window.Being there, one would never have imagined that this was in the desolate northwest region.

This mansion is like an illusion cast by demons on the road to attract hungry and lost passers-by.

After seeing all this, Mo Qin was also a little shocked.

I don’t know how much money and energy it takes to build such a house.However, Cui Yuzhen not only built it perfectly within three months, but also successfully abducted people from the capital, which is really amazing.

Fulian followed Mo Qin, introducing him to the various furnishings, while not forgetting to impress his master in front of him: "Every plant and tree here was prepared by His Highness himself. He knows that you like peach blossoms, so he I planted a few peach trees in the backyard, and when the climate is suitable, the hot spring water will be diverted to irrigate them, and the flowers will bloom."

"By the way, there is a small hot spring in the backyard. Although it cannot be compared with the one in the palace, it is definitely no problem for you to bathe alone. His Highness spent a lot of effort to find this spring. He said that you Your skin is white, tender and beautiful, so you must not be careless in this regard."

When I walked into the room, everything was ready.There are even many old things that Mo Qin used when he was in the East Palace, as well as things that he personally made for Cui Yuzhen, including a withered black and yellow wreath.

Mo Qin stepped forward, stretched out his hand and gently touched the withered flowers and leaves and the weaving vines on the wreath, his eyes dark and unclear.

Fulian smiled at the right time and said: "Master Mo, you have worked hard after this period of traveling and traveling. Just rest early today. I will leave first. If you have any instructions, you can call me."

When she opened the door, she did not forget to add: "His Highness asked me to bring you a message for him. You don't have to worry about being disturbed by unsighted people when you live here. The Eighteen Killers will be here to protect you around the clock." It’s safe, so you can rest assured.”
