Chapter 1175 The Letter Reached His Hands
o afford his education, they would spit on him and disgrace him.And there's her missing, presumed dead father. The An family has always believed he became an official in the capital, so for his sake,..."!"
Mo Junyi raised an eyebrow. “Know what”
I have absolutely no idea what Lei Hong is thinking. He looks at Mo Junyi with eyes of admiration unlike any he's ever shown before, and exclaims, "Young Master, you did that on purpose."
"…"
Mo Junyi didn't want to continue guessing what he meant. He raised his hand and tapped him on the head, "Speak plainly."
"Oh, what my subordinate meant was that just now, when Young Master seemed to be staring blankly at the man in the mask, it turned out to be intentional. You were deliberately acting lost in thought, but actually you weren't at all. You did this on purpose to memorize his features while seeming distracted. No wonder you even noticed the mole at the corner of his eye."
As for Lei Hong's words, Mo Junyi didn't deny them. Though young, he had seen his fair share of ups and downs over the years. It was impossible for him to show such a dazed expression just because of a stranger.
Everything he showed in front of those two was just an act, all to get a clearer look at that person's features.
This man was addressed as "Father King" by Mo Yunchen. He didn't know who this person was, but this was a major matter. There was a possibility of some other conspiracy between this man and Mo Yunchen, so he had to inform his Fifth Uncle about it as soon as possible.
Have Wu Shu investigate this thoroughly. If Mo Yunchen and that person really do have a conspiracy, Wu Shu can also be prepared in time.
Lei Hong saw that Mo Junyi ignored him and couldn't help but say, "But, Your Highness, I still don't understand why His Highness wants you to call that person 'grandfather'"
The prince's identity is not that of an ordinary person. After all, the prince's grandfather is the current emperor. If the prince called the man just now "grandfather," wouldn't that mean putting that person's status on the same level as the current emperor's
This... if the emperor were to find out, he would surely be put to death.
However, here the mountains are high and the emperor far away, so the emperor naturally wouldn't care.
Mo Junyi's face darkened, and the image of that person's eyes flashed in his mind. If that person was Mo Yunchen's biological father, then what about his fifth uncle
Mo Yunchen and his fifth uncle were born of the same mother. If Mo Yunchen's biological father was that man just now, then... what about his fifth uncle Wouldn't his fifth uncle's biological father also be…
He didn't dare to think about all the possible connections. He shook his head and said to Lei Hong, "You pretend you don't know anything about this. Don't tell anyone, anywhere."
Seeing Mo Junyi so serious, Lei Hong quickly nodded, "Your Highness, rest assured, I understand."
"You said you'd already made friends with the kitchen staff Are they reliable"
Lei Hong nodded. "Subordinate thinks it's reliable. That soldier lost a leg, and now he can only work in the kitchen. According to him, after his leg was broken, he thought he was going to die on the battlefield, but in the end, King Beijang saved him from the enemy."
“Later, it was learned that besides the barracks, he had nowhere else to go. So, he was allowed to continue staying in the barracks, where he was responsible for washing dishes and sweeping the floor every day. Later, when the princess of Bei Jiang arrived, she knew that his broken leg would be extremely painful during cold weather. She gave him acupuncture and prescriptions, and now his leg has improved greatly.”
"This man said that his life was saved by the couple King and Queen of Beijang, so he wanted to repay them. He said that he had personally witnessed the interactions between the Queen of Beijang and the prince, knowing that the Queen treated the prince like her own son, so he was willing to do things for the prince."
Upon hearing Lei Hong's words, Mo Junyi also had some impression of this person. He was present when his mother gave this person acupuncture treatment.
After a moment of silence, Mo Junyi nodded. "So he can leave the camp"
"Now he can go out to buy supplies. Sometimes the food in the barracks needs to be bought outside. Since his leg has healed, he is in charge of buying supplies for the kitchen."
Then it's settled.
Mo Junyi put the portrait and letter together, then handed them to Lei Hong. "This needs to be sent out as soon as possible, but this matter must be handled with caution, otherwise both of us could lose our lives. So you..."
Mò Jūn Yì glanced at the door, then leaned closer to Léi Hóng, whispering a few words in her ear.
After hearing this, Lei Hong blinked, her expression full of uncertainty. She didn't understand why Mo Junyi would do this, but his eyes were too firm, conveying an extremely strong attitude to her.
Lei Hong hesitated, "Prince, if this is discovered, we're truly finished."
Of course Mo Junyi knew this, but ever since he decided to stay, he had come to view life and death with indifference.
Mo Junyi looked at Lei Hong, "Are you afraid"
Lei Hong shook her head slightly, "Don't worry, Your Highness, you don't need to say anything more. I know what to do."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left, still holding the things Mo Junyi had given him.
After Lei Hong left his tent, he looked around and saw nothing unusual, so he went to the kitchen.
He returned to Mo Junyi's side shortly after entering the kitchen.
……
And just shortly after Lei Hong left the kitchen, the person in charge of purchasing from the kitchen also left Beijang Camp.
A group of people hurried towards the city market, but none of them knew that several pairs of eyes were following them.
After arriving at the market, those in charge of each section began to purchase provisions for their respective teams. Soon, the few who had followed out from the Beijang camp noticed that some people buying supplies were sneaking away from the market.
When the buyers assembled, they realized one person was missing. However, to avoid delaying matters at the military camp, they proceeded back to Bei Jiangying.
But this time, there were no tails behind them because the whole group of tails had already gone back to camp.
……
At this time, the group of people were inside Mo Yunchen's tent, while Mo Yunchen and Yun Rui sat on the main seats. Mo Yunchen held a letter in his hand.
Looking at the letter in his hand, the handwriting, naturally remembered by Mo Yunchen, belonged to his ‘good son’, Mo Juni.
The letter had been crumpled in Mo Yunchen's hand, he stared at the group of people, silent for a moment before gritting his teeth and speaking, "What else did you see Where was this letter supposed to be sent"
One of them cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, that man originally entered a courtyard, but when we followed him in, we didn't see anyone else. The man suddenly committed suicide by poison, and we found this letter on him."
Mo Yunchen furrowed his brows, "Alright, you may leave."
Yes.
After everyone else left, Yun Rui chuckled sarcastically, "Your son is really a 'good son', isn't he Now you finally know why I wanted you to kill him as soon as possible Someone who always throws their elbows outward will only hold you back, and even in crucial moments, they can deliver a fatal blow."
Mo Yunchen gritted his teeth, "My son understands. Once Mo Yunjing's matter is settled, my son will deal with him."
"Just make sure you understand, alright Read the letter and see what he said. And where is he sending it this time"re going to feed me well before slaughtering me"Mo Yunjing chuckled softly and gave her a meaningful glance. "Hmm, perhaps!"At this moment, a playful glint danced in his eyes. An Xuetang and Mo Jyunyi...
