Unknowingly, Mo Qin has been living in the small courtyard in the northwest for a year.

This year he has not stepped out of the mansion once, but surprisingly he does not feel bored or depressed.

Just like a young master who lives in seclusion in a deep house and compound, doing what he likes in a beautiful and comfortable house, all the disturbances in the outside world have nothing to do with him.

Over time, the past of conspiracies, dangers, and overwhelming power in the palace seemed to have happened in a previous life.Cui Qiu, Qiu Si, Chao Lin, Cui Yuanjue, the Queen... these people were gradually locked into the depths of his mind, making it difficult to remember them anymore.

It's autumn again, and migratory birds begin to migrate south.

Mo Qin looked at the birds flying far above his head and leaned on the soft cushions, his face gentle and peaceful.

During this period, Cui Yuzhen came back later and later, and last time he found a new wound on his back.The knife mark went right across the back, and any deeper would have hurt the spine.

The Jin people had obviously withdrawn their troops, there was no major fighting at the border, and they didn't know where they were so seriously injured.

When I asked him, he didn't say anything, and just told Mo Qin not to worry.

"It's been the past few days..." Mo Qin lay on the rocking chair, looking up at the sky and thinking quietly.

That night, Cui Yuzhen had not returned yet.A colorless and odorless smoke quietly filled the mansion.

The elite of Shibasha happened to follow the prince out, but Fulian and the others fell down one after another before they could react.

Mo Qin also inhaled the smoke in the room. He quickly wet a piece of handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, but he could only stay awake. His legs had no strength to stand up.

At this time, a masked man in black walked in from the door. When he saw Mo Qin, he hurried forward and said in a tired but surprised voice: "Mo Qin, you are really here!"

The familiar voice brought back Mo Qin's memories.

He looked at the man in night clothes in front of him and accurately called out his name: "Qiu Si!"

Qiu Si grabbed Mo Qin's arm and said, "His Royal Highness has been looking for you everywhere this year. Cui Yuzhen's territory was so tightly guarded that we finally got the exact location. We didn't have much hope at first, but I didn't expect you to really Here! Everyone outside has been drugged by me, let’s leave quickly!”

His words were full of joy of reunion, but Mo Qin looked at him and couldn't laugh for some reason.

Qiu Si noticed his hesitation and asked tentatively: "Mo Qin, what's wrong with you? Is there something important that you haven't done yet?"

Mo Qin was stunned for a moment. At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind - Cui Yuzhen's trench coat with holes in it had not yet been repaired...

Qiu Si saw something was wrong in his eyes and couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and said: "Mo Qin, your Majesty has been mobilizing the Jinyi Guards to look for you this year. Although we arrived first, there is no guarantee that someone from the Jinyi Guards will be there one day. I just came here. His Majesty cares about you, and so does His Majesty the Fifth Prince."

"During the year you disappeared, His Highness suffered from insomnia all night long. He had to rely on the sleeping aids I prescribed for him to fall asleep. Sometimes he called your name in his dreams. Come back with me, after all, you and Your Highness has been together since we got married. Your Highness misses you very much."

At the end, he added: "Moreover, although the prince has not returned to the capital for two years, he has completely controlled the military power of the [-]-strong army in the northwest. The situation in the capital is not optimistic. If we cannot turn the tables, what happened to Concubine Shu is afraid It can no longer be reversed.”

Mo Qin's heart beat rapidly.I recall in my mind everything that happened in this small world during this year.

Although it was so ordinary, he was surprised to find that he could remember every little thing clearly.

But in the end, the scene from many years ago came to mind---

In the winter when he was five years old, when he was about to die from cold and exhaustion, a woman in rich clothes passed by him and said in a beautiful and delicate voice: "Ah, such a small child is so pitiful."

After that, he was favored by that man and transferred from the handyman department and survived.

Since then, he has sworn that every drop of kindness will be repaid by a spring.He will definitely repay this female Bodhisattva well.

Because she gave him a new life and gave him a second chance to live...

After struggling for a moment, Mo Qin took a deep breath and made up his mind.

He closed his eyes heavily and said:

"Mr. Xia, please take me back to Beijing."

----

Two hours later, Cui Yuzhen arrived in a hurry and saw an empty room.

There was a note on the desk, held down with a paperweight to prevent it from blowing away in the wind.

There are only two words on it: Don’t read it.

Looking at the all-too-familiar handwriting, Cui Yuzhen held the note tightly in her hand, her expression seemed focused and distant.

After a long while, he tore up the paper in silence and threw it to the ground.

The murderous aura around him seemed to be condensed into substance, so suppressed that even Wei Ming nearby felt suffocated.

Su Sha said coldly: "Have you caught me?"

Big beads of sweat appeared on Wei Ming's forehead, and for the first time, his paralyzed face showed a slight expression of fear:

"Reporting to Your Highness, Cui Qiu's secret guards are really good at hiding their whereabouts. Our people have lost track of them."

Cui Yuzhen took a deep breath, made a fist with her right hand and punched it heavily on the red sandalwood table.There was just a "click" sound, a crack stretched vertically, and the table split into two halves.

A stream of bright red blood dripped from his right fist onto the floor.

After venting his anger, Cui Yuzhen's face suddenly became gloomy, but also filled with childlike helplessness and confusion.

"What did I do wrong to him? Why did he leave..."

----

Half a month later, in the capital, the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

As soon as Mo Qin stepped into the front hall, he saw a tall and strong man running towards him and hugging him into his arms.

It was like meeting a close friend who hadn't seen him for many years, holding Mo Qin tightly in his arms.

The man buried his head in Mo Qin's shoulder, inhaling his breath deeply.

With a trembling sound at the end, Mo Qin realized that Cui Qiu seemed to be crying.

"Moqin, you are back. I miss you so much, I miss you so much..."

Before he could express his full thoughts and joy, Mo Qin mercilessly pushed the person away from him.

Looking coldly at Cui Qiu's tearful appearance, he asked: "Your Highness, how is the Queen's situation?"

Unexpectedly, this was the first thing his sweetheart said, and Cui Qiu seemed a little hurt.

But he still adjusted his tone and said as calmly as possible: "That bitch is still the same. She doesn't want to admit the sins she has done because of her status as queen. She is now helping the prince to obtain the qualifications for the appointment and removal of officials in Shuzhong. She wants to We must completely control the military power of the troops stationed in Shu. We already have a lot of people in the court, and we are still in a stalemate with the princelings."

Mo Qin lowered his eyes, his eyes were dark and deep, unable to distinguish between joy and anger.

Ask: “What do you want me to do?”

Cui Qiu paused and mustered up the courage to say, "This past year, my father has also been looking for traces of the gang of thieves who kidnapped you all over the country. However, Cui Yuzhen was so thoughtful that he didn't show any signs of trouble. If it weren't for me, it would definitely be him. Even if we take you away and increase manpower to search the northwest area, we may not be able to rescue you."

"My father still misses you in his heart. He doesn't think about food or drink, and buries himself in folds all day long. Now that you are back, he will definitely be very happy."

"As long as he knows that it was Cui Yuzhen who coveted you and even sent someone to kidnap you in the imperial city, then his status in the heart of the father will inevitably plummet. The father will start to question whether he has the intention to rebel. By then , he may not be able to secure his position as Crown Prince."
