The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 313: The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind (1)

"The reason is very simple. Peilin arranged for Xinche to appear beside you." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spoke righteously and rudely, pushing Peilin to the front.

Originally, Xinche was chosen by Peilin, and Peilin was in charge of everything about how to place him next to the girl. At that time, I only knew the result, but knew nothing about the process in between.

Peilin, who had been disguised in Mo Chong's room in the secret base for the past two days, suddenly sneezed a few times. Did he catch a cold? Looking at the room, it was bright and sunny, but it could only be lit by candlelight. This secret base was really cold.

I don’t know how much stimulation Mo Chong has received since childhood that he actually likes to live in such a place.

Thinking of this, Peilin silently pulled his clothes. There were too many things going on these days, and he couldn't get sick at this stage. Peilin didn't know at all that His Highness had pushed him out as a shield to block Miss Yang Qi's anger.

Insidious, too insidious.

Yang Qi felt contempt for the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used Peilin as a shield. With Peilin's loyalty, he would strictly follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's orders in everything he did.

However, Yang Qi only complained in his heart and did not dare to show it on his face.

Mo Chong has surrendered, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has many things to deal with, including but not limited to notifying Duke Ying of Xihu and quickly building a communication channel between the secret base and the capital.

Yang Qi is not a young lady who only knows how to embroider in her boudoir. Without Your Highness's words, I know that Your Highness has many things to deal with before returning to Beijing.

Although Yang Qi did want to meet the Crown Prince who was in charge of the situation, he would not speak rashly in such an occasion.

After returning to the temporary house, Yang Qi took Xiao Qing to check if anything was missing in the house. Then, he took a book and started reading in the yard.

Ever since Yang Qi came out of the secret base, he has been cherishing every opportunity to bask in the sun these days.

Thinking of being locked up in the dark room in the secret base for several days in a row, Yang Qi still felt a little scared. If it weren't for his strong mind, he would have been unable to bear it when he was in the dark room.

I don’t know how many people Mo Chong has used this trick to deal with. Leaning on the chair, Yang Qi murmured.

Suddenly, Yang Qi narrowed his eyes. Although the small dark room was dark, there were more or less scratches on the table and the stone wall. It seemed that Mo Chong had used this trick to deal with people before.

In such a dark and quiet place, one cannot feel the passage of time. Anyone with a weaker mind will not be able to make it. It seems that Mo Chong had some judgment of his identity at that time. Was the subsequent events a show to himself?

Putting down the book, Yang Qi whispered, "Xiao Qing, help me make the arrangements. I want to meet Mo Chong."

"Yes, Miss." Xiaoqing appeared silently, replied to Yang Qi, and then disappeared quietly.

Half a quarter of an hour later, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince listened to Xiaoqing's reply: "Approved."

Did this girl discover something? Why would she want to see Mo Chong at this time?

Xiaoqing was very fast and returned to Yangqi's side a quarter of an hour later: "Miss, it has been arranged."

Yang Qi nodded, went into the house, took the veil and put it on, then went to the courtyard that Pei Di had arranged for Mo Chong.

Ever since Mo Chong joined His Highness's camp, his status here has become much higher, and he has his own independent small courtyard.

When Yang Qi arrived, Mo Chong was changing the medicine in the house, so Yang Qi took the opportunity to sit down in front of the table and chairs in the yard. Seeing the young lady's actions, Xiao Qing immediately put out the teapot and cups.

This was mainly because this was a temporary place to stay with limited conditions, and they had to set off in the afternoon. A good cook cannot cook without rice, so Xiaoqing had to prepare simple things. If they were in the capital, she would have to add snacks and fruits.

When Mo Chong heard Xiao Qi waiting outside the yard, he put down the bottle of medicine in his hand and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After quickly getting dressed and opening the door, Mo Chong saw Xiao Qi sipping tea under the warm sun. "What's up, Doctor Xiao Qi, are you going to see a patient now? I wonder if Mo Chong still has the honor to trouble the popular person around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Putting down the teacup, Yang Qi looked at Mo Chong who was full of smiles: "In a few days, a doctor will come to take over your illness. Don't worry, this doctor's medical skills are absolutely superb."

Sitting on the stool, Mo Chong poured himself a cup of tea. After taking a sip, he immediately frowned: "From your expression, I thought this was a very good tea."

As he spoke, Mo Chong put the teacup back on the table with disdain.

Yang Qi didn't have that much time to care about Mo Chong's preferences: "Mo Chong, I don't like being used by others, and Your Highness doesn't like it even more. From the beginning, you knew that I was Your Highness's person, right or not?"

Mo Chong raised his eyebrows, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed by his own views being exposed: "I really don't know why you have such an illusion?"

Thinking of Mo Chong's current identity, Yang Qi put down the teacup and did not answer Mo Chong's question. He just said to himself: "This time when we leave, we will take Madam Mo with us."

There is no way, Mo Chong has too many little thoughts, and he is not a loyal person. Today, Mo Chong will turn to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince because of Madam Mo; tomorrow, if the Bai family or the fifth prince catches Madam Mo, then Mo Chong will stab His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the back without hesitation.

Mo Chong seemed to be prepared for what Yang Qi said: "As long as Your Highness takes good care of my grandmother, Mo Chong has no problem." According to the current situation, his vicinity is the most dangerous place. As long as his grandmother can stay with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, at least her life will be safe.

"Your Highness is as good as his word. Master Mo can rest assured. Just tell me, when did you know my identity?" Mo Chong's mind was as complicated as the mechanism he designed.

"Your Highness must have known that the bandits around here are the work of the Fifth Prince and the Bai family. Miss Xiaoqi caused such a big commotion outside and even saved General Huo Yun, the legitimate son of the Duke of Ying. It's not surprising that I can guess your identity, right?

Could it be that you really think that just the inspection of the underground base alone can attract the Fifth Prince to come in person?"

When Mo Chong said these things, he looked at Yang Qi as if he was looking at a fool.

"In that case, I have to thank you." Yang Qi said calmly, without any fluctuation in his words.

“Of course, I found out when you and your people entered the secret base.

If I pull you out in front of the Fifth Prince and Bai Yuxin, do you think you can still talk to me here now?"

Having said this, Mo Chong's eyes showed some complacency.
