Chapter 123 What have you done?
After returning, Xiao Mo planned to settle Feng Zhiqiu in the inn for a few days, and then take her there after the house in the suburbs was ready.
Unexpectedly, Qi Minxiu unexpectedly suggested that Feng Zhiqiu live in the palace first.
Xiao Mo was shocked by his action, but she also felt that he was not an unkind person.
But only Qi Minxiu himself knew that, in addition to thinking that Feng Zhiqiu was the person Xiao Mo valued the most, he thought that if he kept this person in the mansion, Xiao Mo would definitely come often.
The reason why Xiao Mo did not bring Feng Zhiqiu back to the Prime Minister's Mansion was because with her identity, Xiao Wenbo and even Murong Shu would not allow her to become their master.
Given their personalities, they would give her a large sum of money because she was her savior.
But Feng Zhiqiu will also be exposed to everyone because of this, and then Xiao Xiang and Lin, who are her enemies, will definitely make a big fuss about it.
They might not be able to do anything when she was around, but if she was not around, they would definitely bully her.
Feng Zhiqiu's personality is gentle and docile. Even if someone deliberately makes things difficult for her, she will just endure it.
She didn't want to live a comfortable life outside and then suffer injustice when she came back here.
When Qi Yue heard that Xiao Mo had returned, he rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion impatiently after the morning court session.
As a result, he happened to run into Xiao Wenbo who was angry: "Does she think this is her home?
At first he left without saying a word, leaving a note behind, and now he returns in the middle of the night without saying a word, and is gone again early this morning."
As he was cursing, he caught sight of Qi Yue at the doorway, and suddenly his voice shrank as he respectfully went up to greet him: "I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you."
Qi Yue frowned and strode to the front hall: "Just now you said Xiao Mo came back and disappeared again?"
"This...she might just be out playing this time and will come back from time to time."
Faced with Qi Yue's cold inquiry, Xiao Wenbo could only answer like this for now.
In Prince Chen's Mansion, Xiao Mo accompanied Feng Zhiqiu and Qi Minxiu after breakfast and chatted for a while. With Feng Zhiqiu's reminder, she remembered that she still had a home.
She had been away for over a month and hadn't paid her respects to Murong Shu since returning.
It was already very late when she arrived last night. She went to Prince Chen's Mansion with Qi Minxiu and others, and only returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion after settling Feng Zhiqiu.
Seeing that it was already past midnight, she did not disturb Murong Shu and Xiao Wenbo.
Early this morning, she took her morning tea and wanted to pay her respects to Murong Shu, but when she arrived at the Plum Courtyard, she found that she had not yet gotten up.
After waiting for a while, she looked at the sky and thought about going to Qi Minxiu's place first to see if Feng Zhiqiu was used to living there. She didn't want to delay and it would be past noon.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Qi Yue waited for a long time but Xiao Mo didn't come back. Thinking that she might have gone to Prince Chen's Mansion, he was about to go look for her when he ran into her at the door who was hurrying back.
The two of them bumped into each other. Qi Yue didn't see who was coming and was about to get angry when he saw Shen Yun following behind Xiao Mo.
The anger in his eyes instantly turned into concern, and he gently helped the person in his arms up: "Amo? Are you okay?!"
Xiao Mo frowned and rubbed her nose: "What do you think? Hey, don't you look at the road when you walk?"
"I was in a hurry, and this is a corner, I didn't notice it, I'm sorry!" Qi Yue apologized reflexively.
He took Xiao Mo's hand away and rubbed it gently for her: "Don't stand here, go in first."
Xiao Mo slapped his hand away and walked in front of him to the backyard, but when she passed the front hall, she saw Xiao Wenbo and Murong Shu discussing something.
She walked up with a smile and knelt politely in the middle of the hall: "Daughter pays respects to father and mother."
The two of them dodged and Xiao Wenbo glared at her: "You still remember to come back, I thought you would never come back."
Murong Shu glanced at him, smiled, walked over to Xiao Mo and helped her up: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Qi Yue stood outside the yard and slowly walked into the hall.
Xiao Wenbo and Murong Shu were a little confused when they saw him.
"Your Highness, don't you have important matters to deal with? What's the matter?" Xiao Wenbo stood up with a smile and gave up his seat.
Qi Yue did not sit over there, but chose a seat next to where Xiao Mo might sit.
He didn't say anything, but just stared at Xiao Mo's face with an unfathomable look.
Murong Shu pulled Xiao Mo to sit next to Qi Yue and stroked her face with concern: "You look much better after this walk."
Xiao Mo smiled and took her hand away, holding it in her palm: "Master's medical skills are far superior to mine. Helping me recuperate is just a matter of convenience."
When she mentioned Master, Qi Yue's motionless eyes flickered slightly: "You went to Qinshan?"
"correct."
"Qi Minxiu went too?" Qi Yue narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Mo seriously.
Xiao Mo looked at him and nodded: "He came later."
"Has he met your master?" Qi Yue asked in an unclear tone, and subconsciously beckoned towards Xiao Mo.
She leaned back a little, confused, and said, "You'll see when you get there."
Qi Yue pursed his lips, sat up straight without saying a word, and looked as if she owed him a lot of money.
Xiao Mo thought that if she told him that Qi Minxiu had met Nie Changyuan when he was very young and had a good relationship with him, he would probably flip the table.
In order to send him away quickly, she grinned and said, "Your Highness, are you here to see me?"
Qi Yue turned his head to look at her unhappily, but did not answer her question.
Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Mo grinned again and said, "Your Highness, don't you still have official business to attend to? You'd better go back early."
It would have been fine if she didn't say anything. As soon as she said it, Qi Yue felt that she didn't want to see him and was trying to drive him away, although Xiao Mo really didn't want him to stay here any longer.
Looking at her harmless look, Qi Yue was so angry that he laughed.
"I came to see you out of kindness, and before I even warmed up my cushions, you're sending me away?"
Xiao Mo didn't expect him to react like this, and the smile on her face froze.
Without waiting for her to explain, Xiao Wenbo came up to her with compliments and tried to smooth things over.
"Your Highness is the Crown Prince. It's a blessing for her to put aside official duties to visit my daughter. She can't thank you enough! Why would she send you away?"
Xiao Mo turned to look at him in surprise, and just as she was about to speak, he started talking again.
"Mo'er, you came back so late last night, what were you doing so early this morning?"
Xiao Mo glanced at Shen Yun and replied with a smile, "I went to the morning market."
"So what did you buy? Where are the things?"
"I just bought some breakfast buns and stuff and ate them all."
Qi Yue was half-believing and half-doubting her words. He frowned and thought for a moment before asking her, "Didn't you go to Prince Chen's Mansion?"
Xiao Mo bit her lip subconsciously, thinking that she had already said that she was going to the morning market. If she admitted it now, wouldn't she be slapping herself in the face?
"Why go to his place? I already said we were going to the morning market."
