The carriage swayed as it left the palace. When she woke up, she rubbed her head.
"Does your head still hurt?"
Suddenly hearing a voice, she turned to look sharply and only then noticed that she was in Mu Yanming's carriage.
She sat up straight, tidied her hair, and found that she was wearing a little maid's clothes. "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me."
After saying that, she hung her head and fell silent.
The carriage went straight back to the General's Mansion. When she jumped out, she turned to Bai Ke and gave a faint smile. "Please go to Jishitang and inform my maid that I'm back."
Bai Ke nodded and drove the carriage away.
She turned and walked towards her own courtyard when she was startled by Ning Yao who suddenly rushed over.
"Huan'er, I finally see you again." Mo Qinghuan resisted the urge to knock him out with a needle and pushed him away.
"Yao Lang, is your injury better?" She deliberately reminded Ning Yao, hoping he wouldn't forget the beating he got from the Lan mother - daughter pair last time.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Ning Yao's face changed. He looked gloomily towards the courtyard of the Lan family.
"Alright, stop standing here. Let's go back to the room and talk." He pulled Mo Qinghuan towards her courtyard.
Mo Qinghuan dodged him skillfully. Ning Yao was a bit surprised. He was stunned for a second and then followed Mo Qinghuan.
Ning Yao knew that if he wanted to make a comeback, he had to rely on Mo Qinghuan's current identity as the "Saying Moon Princess".
When he saw that there were servants in Mo Qinghuan's courtyard, he was even more determined in this thought.
"Huan'er, don't you miss me?" He tried to hold Mo Qinghuan's hand.
Mo Qinghuan looked aggrieved and grabbed his sleeve instead. "Yao Lang, you came back to the General's Mansion so boldly. Aren't you afraid that the mother - daughter pair will do something to you again?"
Ning Yao was arrogant and looked disdainful. "Silly Huan'er, I'll tell you. You're the Saying Moon Princess personally conferred by the emperor. So from now on, you don't have to be afraid of them anymore. And I'll always be by your side to protect and accompany you."
Mo Qinghuan curled her lips slightly and pretended to be surprised. "Really?"
She looked at Ning Yao. He was probably the only one who could distort the truth to such an extent!
Ning Yao reached out to tap her nose. Just as she was about to dodge, she changed her mind and let him.
"Of course. But you have to remember, you must listen to me and tell me before you do anything."
Mo Qinghuan thought of the poor girl who had given her whole heart to this scumbag in front of her without reservation.
She suppressed the impulse in her heart. She thought that since they were in the same group and Mo Yao had even given herself to him.
So Ning Yao must know many secrets of the Lan mother - daughter pair.
So she pulled him to sit down. "Shuang'er, go and make a pot of tea."
Ning Yao snorted in his heart. "This stupid woman is still so easy to deceive."
Mo Qinghuan propped her chin and looked outside the door. At an angle where Ning Yao couldn't see, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Dan'er walked in at this time. Seeing Mo Qinghuan's clothes, she was first surprised and then bowed respectfully to Mo Qinghuan.
Ning Yao also became arrogant, as if he were the master.
Dan'er whispered in Mo Qinghuan's ear, "Miss, the people from the Lan family really sent someone to Jishitang to invite the divine doctor today."
Mo Qinghuan looked at Ning Yao with a charming smile. "Yao Lang, I'll go and change my clothes first."
She walked into the inner room, and Dan'er guarded outside.
Ning Yao glanced inside but saw nothing and turned his head away.
After Mo Qinghuan changed her clothes and walked out, Ning Yao's eyes flashed with amazement when he saw her.
Mo Qinghuan was wearing a light pink waist - length cross - collared ruqun. The ribbons were tied into two double - ear knots around her waist, making her slender waist look as if it could be easily grasped. The light pink color also set off her fair skin.
Ning Yao knew that Mo Qinghuan was pretty, especially when she looked at him aggrievedly. But he didn't know that her figure was so good, much better than Mo Yao's.
He was so dazed that he didn't come to his senses until Mo Qinghuan came in front of him.
Mo Qinghuan was satisfied with his reaction. She reached out and twirled a strand of Ning Yao's hair.
She asked casually, "Yao Lang, you know that I've wanted to be with you for a long time. But..."
"But what?"
Mo Qinghuan said softly, "But... although I'm a princess now, the power to manage the General's Mansion is still in the hands of the Lan family. If we want to live a good life, we can't..."
She didn't finish her sentence but deliberately left the second half for Ning Yao.
Ning Yao hadn't thought so much before. After Mo Qinghuan's reminder, he thought that the Lan mother - daughter pair were cruel and hard to control.
If he could bring them down, this huge General's Mansion would fall into his hands.
Mo Qinghuan watched Ning Yao with a sly smile on his face silently.
She added fuel to the fire and said, "You'd better go quickly. Otherwise, if they see you, they'll do something bad to you again."
"Huan'er, don't worry. I have something on the mother - daughter pair. They dare not do anything to me!"
Seeing Ning Yao so confident, Mo Qinghuan wondered what kind of handle it could be that made him so bold.
"What is it?"
Ning Yao was about to say it but then changed his tune. "Huan'er, don't worry about it. Anyway, I'll handle everything."
"Alright then. It's getting late. You'd better go back first." Mo Qinghuan pushed him out.
But Ning Yao didn't seem to want to leave.
He leaned close to Mo Qinghuan's ear and blew gently. "Huan'er, I want to stay."
"You want to stay. It's not impossible. But... you have to tell me what you have on them. So when you're not around, I'll have the confidence when facing them."
Ning Yao looked at Mo Qinghuan. He had a strange feeling that Mo Qinghuan didn't seem so stupid anymore. Her actions were obviously trying to extract information from him.
However, looking at Mo Qinghuan's figure and the cleavage on her chest, he felt a bit excited.
He reached out and tapped Mo Qinghuan's nose, then whispered in her ear, "Mo Yao she..."
Mo Qinghuan was stunned!
No wonder! This news was so explosive. No wonder Ning Yao was so bold!
After saying that, Ning Yao pushed Mo Qinghuan towards the inner room.
Mo Qinghuan pretended to resist. In her heart, she silently called for Xiao Yi. A few seconds later, there was a small medicine packet in her hand.
This was a very powerful hallucinogenic drug, colorless and odorless. Once drunk, one would lose consciousness in three seconds!
After Ning Yao pushed her onto the bed, he turned around to untie his belt. Mo Qinghuan stood up and poured water for Ning Yao.
She secretly sprinkled the powder into it.
"Yao Lang, drink some water first."
Seeing her shy look and the water cup in her hand, Ning Yao thought of the aphrodisiac he took the first time with Mo Yao and sneered obscenely.
