protect the two young masters safely back to the capital.Their wives readily agreed to the young lady's proposal without a second thought, not even leaving a single guard behind for their young mistre...He slapped him twice, then stared at Mo Junyi's eyes, which were infuriatingly irritating to look at. This made his resolve to kill him even stronger.

Although they are his flesh and blood, he will not allow such kin who are not on the same page as him to exist!

Moreover, this flesh and blood is heart towards Mo Yunjing.

In this world, as far as he can see, Mo Yunjing is his biggest threat.

Since Mo Junshi, who holds the military talisman to command the Northern Frontier army, is on the same side as Mo Yunjing, then Mo Junshi naturally cannot be allowed to remain.

Thinking of this, Mo Yunchen didn't care about Mo Junshi's gaze at the moment. He collected his emotions and took a few steps back.

Mo Junyi naturally didn't miss the killing intent in his eyes. Although it was within his expectations, when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still shocked.

As expected, he really did want to kill him. He had guessed this outcome before returning, but now, a wave of unbearable grief washed over him nonetheless.

Mo Junyi clenched his hands tightly, trying his best not to reveal the emotions in his heart.

Mò Yún Chén sat back in his original position. He looked up, his eyes, which no longer showed any emotion, fixed on Mò Jūn Yì, "Who helped you"

If no one helps Mo Junyi, his guards wouldn't be able to return at all.

Mo Junyi hadn't expected this matter to stay hidden from him. It was better for him to tell him directly than wait for him to find out himself.

So he told them about how the tigers were still alive.

Mo Yunchen's eyes grew sharper when he learned of this, staring at Mo Jinyi.

It seems he truly underestimated his son. Over the years, Mo Junyi learned a great deal from Mo Yunjing's side.

"Oh."

Mo Yunchen stared at Mo Junyi, and suddenly sneered, "Mo Junyi, you're quite capable."

At this moment, normally people would see Mo Yunchen so angry and instinctively want to avoid him. However, Mo Junyi was an oddball. Knowing Mo Yunchen was in a furious rage, he still continued to provoke him.

Lei Hong was thinking about how to protect her own young master, but before she could figure out a way, Mo Junyi calmly said, "Thank you, Father, for the praise."

"..."

Lei Hong's whole body stiffened, and the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily. Was their young master trying to get himself killed

The prince is so angry right now, he dares to contradict him He's asking for death.

Ke Mo Jun Yi looked like he wasn't afraid at all, truly living up to the saying "the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is." Lei Hong was anxious, her heart racing, wishing she could rush over and hold onto her young master.

Mo Yunchen was also stunned by Mo Juni's words. After he reacted, he was still angry and couldn't help but slam his fist on the table.

"Mo Jun Yi!"

He pointed at Mo Junyi, "Do you really think I wouldn't do anything to you"

"The child dares not."

Mo Jun Yi, facing his anger, remained expressionless and calmly responded, "Those guards are important to Father, but a dozen beloved pets are more important to me. If Father wants to harm my pets, I naturally won't just stand by and watch them meet their end. Father should be able to understand this."

"!"

Mò Yún Chén let out a cold snort. Right now, he didn't want to say much to Mò Jūn Yì. He just gave Mò Jūn Yì and Lei Hóng a chilling glance and waved his hand dismissively. "You may go."

"... " Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lei Hong's eyes widened in disbelief. He had thought that the Prince would be in terrible shape today, but he didn't expect the Crown Prince to just let them go

And Mo Junyi merely nodded slightly, then turned and left with Lei Hong.

The two returned to Mo Junyi's tent. Lei Hong still seemed dazed.

Mo Junyi raised an eyebrow, then sat down and tapped the table, signaling Lei Hong to sit down.

Here only Mo Junyi was present, Lei Hong didn't refuse. He sat beside Mo Junyi, lowering his voice and saying, "Young Master, is this just how it ends today The Crown Prince didn't do anything at all We made him lose so many powerful guards, and he just let it go"

Mo Junyi curled his lips into a smile, but upon closer inspection, there was self-deprecation hidden within it, as if he were mocking his own foolishness.

Lei Hong blinked, clearly not understanding Mo Jun Yi's expression.

After a moment of silence, Mo Junyi spoke, "Lei Hong, do you truly believe my father has such deep feelings for me"

Lei Hong was puzzled, and didn't know how to answer Mo Junyi's question.

Actually, since the prince came to Beijiang, he has eyes and can see. The prince's feelings for the crown prince are not very much.

Let alone the Prince's favoritism towards the Crown Prince being far less than that of King Bei Jiang, even those around King Bei Jiang, like Yun Yi, treated the Crown Prince better than the Prince.

Mò Jūn Yì asked this question without expecting Lei Hóng to answer. At this moment, he began to ask and answer himself:

> “However, no matter what kind of feelings he has for me, this prince actually doesn't care. After all, since I was a child, I understand that the imperial family is the most ruthless. This prince's status is right here, so why bother pursuing feelings that shouldn't be obtained”

To have been treated kindly by Uncle Five and Mama all this life, to have received their true affection, means that whether or not his biological father's feelings exist, he can become indifferent.

After all, one shouldn't be too greedy.

Lei Hong was very confused, he could only stare at Mo Junyi, wondering what would happen next.

Mo Junyi, after he had calmed down himself, suddenly looked at Lei Hong, "Lei Hong, my father king doesn't just want to let it go like this. In his eyes, you and I are both going to die, there's no need to punish you before we die."

"!"

Leihong instantly stiffened, "to...to the dead"

"Yes, in his eyes, none of us can stay."

Just now, Mo Yunchen's murderous intent was evident in his eyes, and he saw it clearly.

Lei Hong was incredulous, he pursed his lips, "But...but Your Highness is the Emperor's blood, the Crown Prince...he shouldn't be possible, right"

Mo Jun Yi looked at him with an unreadable expression, then suddenly smiled.

This laugh sent a shiver down Lei Hong's spine. With such conviction, the Prince was speaking. Could it be that the Crown Prince truly wanted the prince's life

Even a tiger doesn't eat its own offspring. The Crown Prince is the Emperor's only son, surely he wouldn't...

Mo Junyi knew Lei Hong's thoughts and shook his head slightly. "Throughout history, how many examples are there of brothers fighting each other and fathers turning against their sons all for that so-called throne"

But, Your Highness and the Crown Prince don't have any conflicts, do you...

"Who said so"

"!"

Lei Hong's jaw dropped in shock, her eyes wide with astonishment as she stared at Mo Jun Yi.

What is the prince saying

Mo Junyi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Lei Hong, do you know who the deceased master was from not long ago"

Lei Hong shook his head; he only knew that not long after the prince arrived in Beijiang, the master who taught the crown prince's lessons died unexpectedly. After that, the crown prince had no master to teach him his lessons.

He didn't know what Mo Jun Yi meant by suddenly mentioning that person. Mo Junyi entered the room again. “How is it”Shour promptly replied, “I only drank a little, I didn't want to drink much more. But that's alright, after being hungry for several days, drinking too muc...
