Chapter 132 Assassination of King Xuan on the night before New Year’s Eve

“What?” Mo Xuetong did not notice the quick change in topic. She followed his gaze and looked at the bruise on her hand. She replied lightly, “It’s alright. I bumped it just now. Your Highness, there’s something odd about your good old eldest brother. It is such a beautiful night and he has the company of a beautiful woman. Yet, he still has so many sharp weapons hidden on him. That’s really not good at all.”

She had allowed herself to fall against Feng Yuxuan earlier after Ling Fengyan’s avoidance of her. There was a rod-shaped object at his chest. Mo Xuetong had touched it as she fell and it felt like a short sword. Feng Yuxuan had brought a weapon out while he strolled along the streets with Ling Fengyan. This was very odd.

Ling Fengyan had not said much earlier. But her intentions were clear. She did want to spend time alone with King Chu. If she had not recalled wrongly, the Empress supported the Third Prince. Then, one could deduce why she was asking her most beautiful niece to accompany King Chu!

She had heard everything Feng Yuran said clearly. He meant that King Yan, Feng Yuyan was interested in Ling Fengyan. Since he liked her, why was he sending Ling Fengyan to King Chu’s side? There were some things that she should not care about and would not care about. But since Feng Yuran helped her so many times, she would naturally consider things from his view. The accidental bump earlier was a way for her to help Feng Yuran check out Feng Yuxuan.

“You mean you were helping me to check out Eldest Brother intentionally?” Feng Yuran’s eyes were narrowed. He did not care about the heavy implications in her words. A charming smile appeared on his lips and he suddenly felt very very pleased. He patted her hand softly before letting go when she seemed to reach the limits of her anger.

How could this person not understand what she was trying to say!

Meeting a beautiful woman was an elegant business. Why did he need to bring weapons? He was usually very smart, so why was he not catching on today?

“Your Highness, you helped me so many times, so I have to repay your kindness, right. You had better think about what I said earlier!” Mo Xuetong wrenched her hand from his grasp and flung her hand out righteously as she reminded him. He had been holding her so tightly that her hand hurt from his hold rather than from being bumped.

He had helped her so many times in exchange for this one repayment? And it was on something that he had already known? Feng Yuran felt rather unhappy and his expression darkened. He harrumphed coldly and said, “I helped you so many times and even saved your life. It’s fine if you don’t want to marry me to repay me for my kindness. But you use such a small matter to try to fob me off. Do you really think I’m easy to cheat!”

Was he angry? Mo Xuetong looked at him in shock, her mouth opened. She could not catch up with his thoughts.

King Xuan was really hard to understand. He was still so happy earlier, but he was all dark and gloomy now. She had only done this to please him, but he felt as if she was trying to fool him. If he was not the eighth prince that Emperor Zongwen doted on the most, the mighty King Xuan, and not someone she could afford to offend, Mo Xuetong would have left long ago.

She looked around her. There were people everywhere. Mo Xuetong was still considered clear-headed and did not just fight with him. The situation right now was against her. If she left him, she probably would not be able to find her way back to Mo Manor. Furthermore, she could not go over the wall without him even if she got there. It would not be wise to offend him right now!

She did not want to ruin her reputation just because she did not want to go shopping!

“Since Your Highness does not enjoy chatting with me, then send me home. Many thanks for your hospitality today.” Mo Xuetong curtsied politely.

“Don’t even think about it!” Feng Yuran turned hostile suddenly. He turned his head to the side and did not look at her.

Was, was he angry? Mo Xuetong felt rather baffled. However, she knew that this was not the time to be considering this issue. She had to coax him first.

“Your Highness! Your Highness, King Xuan!” Mo Xuetong truly did not know how she had annoyed him. She turned around to smile at him but did not expect his head to be turned away from her. Was he going to ignore her? This man was so hard to please. Mo Xuetong looked around and suddenly said softly, “Your Highness, since you do not wish to see me, then I shall go home by myself. I just need to go back to the manor and admit that I came out secretly by myself.”

Then, she turned around, looking sorry for herself, and headed in the other direction.

Behind her, Feng Yuran moved slightly. Then, he immediately caught himself. He did not believe that she would dare to go home by herself! He watched her. Even though she said she was leaving, she was moving really slowly. He harrumphed coldly to himself. The lass dared to lie to him!

Hurmph, very well. She wanted to play with him. Very well! What was she going to do if he ignored her? He did not believe that she would be able explain things clearly when she returned to Mo Manor. How was she going to explain being able to slip out so silently?

“Are you really going to ignore me?” Mo Xuetong realized she truly had run out of ideas against the intelligent and unpredictable man. What was worse was that she had to ask him for help, and only him. She truly could not find anyone who could flip over such a tall wall. Mo Feng was definitely not around anymore. She thought about it, didn’t Mo Feng belong to him as well!

“Your Highness, if you will not help me, I will go and ask King Chu. King Chu went down that road earlier, didn’t he? We just separated not long ago. I trust that they have not gone far.” Mo Xuetong said sadly from where she stood. She sighed in self-pity and then turned around in the other direction, having accepted fate. That was the road Feng Yuxuan and Ling Fengyan had gone down earlier.

The lass really did dare threaten him. Feng Yuran was furious. He leaned against the wall. He did not believe that the lass would really go and find Feng Yuxuan. He was not afraid that she was using Feng Yuran to aggravate him!

Mo Xuetong took two more steps. Then, she turned around with a small frown. She stared at Feng Yuran’s charming appearance and felt gloomy. This man was really...If she did not clearly know that she would not be able to go home without his help, she would have already left. This man was really too unpredictable. Pigs could fly before one could grasp what he was thinking, not to mention knowing why he had gotten angry for no reason earlier!

Mo Xuetong stopped moving. She turned around and returned to his side, pouting and not speaking. She stared at him gloomily, anger bubbling in her heart. She felt aggrieved and annoyed, especially when she looked at how he had turned his handsome face away petulantly. Anger surged up from within. If he had not brought her out, would she be in such an awkward situation right now? She could not hold back her anger for that moment and she reached out for her hand, which was wrapped around his other arm, and bit down forcefully.

Feng Yuran was secretly pleased when he saw how she had returned on her own accord. However, he had not expected that she would take his hand so quickly and bite down. He wanted to fling her away subconsciously but managed to restrain himself. He said viciously, “You bit me! Have you gotten addicted to biting me!”

Mo Xuetong’s mind cleared after she was done biting him. She could see the situation clearly now. She nibbled at her lips and put her soft pale hands in front of Feng Yuran, looking rather aggrieved. She took a deep breath and then said righteously, “You can bite me back!”

This person was so petty when she didn’t bite him. Wouldn’t he be angrier if she bit him? She might as well just let him bite her! Perhaps he would let her off when he saw how she was doing this willingly.

“You bit me, so you want me to bite you back? You bit me more than once!” Feng Yuran complained. Feng Yuran’s mood suddenly turned for the better when he saw how aggrieved she looked and how her expression read “I’m not afraid of you biting me.”

The lass still had a conscience. At least she would allow him to bite her after biting him and did not just pretend that it had not happened. Of course, he would not tell her now that he liked how she treated him as an equal. I bite you, and you bite me. How nice was that! Feng Yuran’s smile grew even more brilliant when he saw how she was looking at him secretly from the corner of her eyes!

He took her hand and then bit down on her soft pale hands before he decided to let her off!

“Your Highness, are you satisfied now? Can you take me home?” Mo Xuetong nibbled her lips and retracted her hand. She looked at the neat row of teeth marks on the back of her hands and ire slowly appeared in her eyes. She only managed to force down the anger she felt and pull out a gentle smile after a long while. He was such a petty man!

“Why are we leaving? We haven’t seen the fireworks. And I haven’t bought you that lantern you liked when we passed by that road over there. Let’s go take a look at that and then watch the fireworks. There’s still a show for you to watch later on!” Feng Yuran’s mood was extremely good then. He reached out to take her hands and even helped her to rub it as she searched for something to say. He felt very pleased when he saw the teeth marks on her soft pale hands. He had placed his seal on it! Then, he held out his hand and compared it with hers. There were also two rows of teeth marks on them. That’s right. They both had to place their seals down. It’d be safer that way.

“I don’t want to see it anymore. I want to go home! Mo Xuetong felt angry when he saw how he had intentionally compared their hands with a pleased expression. She thought of how he had intentionally annoyed her and then was now behaving as if nothing happened. He made her happy one moment and then angry the next. It was just because he was bored and had nothing to do. For all that she thought he was helping her, he only treated it as entertainment.

This man was too evil!

She stomped her feet and got angry!

“Are you really angry? You are so petty. Look, you bit me and I didn’t even get angry about that. Why are you so angry when I only bit you lightly? A girl should be more magnanimous. Look at Second Miss Ling. She’s already like that but she still retains the disposition of a girl of a noble family.” Feng Yuran blinked. His eyes were like black jade. He extended his hands and smiled, not at all looking as angry as he did earlier.

Petty? Would she be as petty as him? She had bitten him and he dared to bite her? She was a girl. Mo Xuetong was so angry she wanted to bite him again. She nibbled at her lips and then exhaled loudly. She curtsied to Feng Yuran coldly and said, “How would I dare to be angry at you, Your Highness. You are nobility and you are not someone that people like us can injure. Why don’t you let me return home before I bite you and cause you injury lest you blame me again when something happens to you.”

“It’s alright. I won’t be angry when you bite me in the future.” Feng Yuran said with a smile. He pulled Mo Xuetong along with him to a path while he whispered in her ears, “I will let you bite me anywhere you want in the future. How about that? You won’t be angry anymore, will you!” Then, he even winked at her, not at all deterred by her attitude.

“I don’t want to...” Mo Xuetong complained. Then, suddenly, a crowd rushed towards them from both sides. She had not even managed to say anything before she was squeezed forcefully against Feng Yuran. It all happened so quickly, Feng Yuran moved speedily to hug her before they were pressed against the wall. Fortunately, his reactions were fast and he carried Mo Xuetong immediately into an alley by the side.

Mo Xuetong had not even had the time to breath when she was startled to find four or five men dressed in black jumping down from the two sides of the walls. They started to attack Feng Yuran together.

“Stay here and don’t go anywhere else. Be careful.” Feng Yuran placed Mo Xuetong at a corner and drew the flexible sword he wore at his waist. He stood in front of her and started fighting the men in black. There were four of them against one of him while another approached Mo Xuetong from the side. The sword in his hand glinted coldly with light reflecting off from the light in the alley.

Were they going to get rid of her first before they worked together against Feng Yuran?

They wanted to assassinate Feng Yuran!

Mo Xuetong took out the miniature swords from the jade box and tossed it aside. She hid it carefully under her wide sleeves. The coat she wore around her hid the swords completely. When she saw the man in black approaching her, she turned away hurriedly. She had never learned martial arts, so she fell to the side after losing her balance when she moved quickly. The swords in her hand swung out.

The swords pricked on the man in black viciously. The sword in his hand fell to the ground in his immense pain. He yelled in pain and slapped his palm on Mo Xuetong’s body. Her slender body could not help but fall forward and a sickly-sweet taste appeared in her throat. She did not even have time to close her eyes as she fell towards the wall.

She feared that she was going to die!
