Chapter 666: Avenged Him

stow rewards upon her, insisting she first present herself before him before granting her grand gifts. Wasn't that just to see how capable she truly wasThen, she would surely not disappoint him.Mo Yun...Mo Yunjing knew about what happened to the flower girl, and Mo Yunjing didn't intentionally hide it from An Xuetang.

He just felt that Huā Duǒ's path was her own choice, and there was nothing others could do to change it. Telling An Xuě Táng would only add to her worries.

So he never brought it up, and Huahua knew the path she'd chosen was dangerous. If she could, she would hate to have anything to do with Tangtang, hoping they would never see each other again. That way, nothing she did would drag Tangtang down.

I just didn't expect them to meet again so soon.

At this moment, looking at Mo Yunjing's expression, An Xuetang didn't need him to answer to know the answer. She didn't blame Mo Yunjing for not telling her, she just asked:

"Ajing, tell me the truth, was Duoer's entry into the palace related to Mo Yunchen"

Mo Yunjing didn't deny it, just softly hummed in response.

An Xuetang frowned, "Then why Since Mo Yunchen has already left safely, what reason does she have to risk her life entering the palace"

What does it do

This question, Mo Yunjing had always been afraid to think about, but he was very clear in his heart what Mo Yunchen really wanted to do.

He just didn't dare to think too deeply. Facing An Xuetang's accusations now, he fell silent. At this moment, he lowered his gaze, and long, thick eyelashes concealed the extremely complex emotions in his eyes.

An Xuetang wasn't a fool. Seeing Mo Yunjing's silence, she seemed to understand something. Would Mo Yunchen, after enduring so much hardship at the emperor's hands, just give up

Will he not seek revenge if he has the chance

Or, in Mo Yunchen's heart, he had always been a candidate for that position. Could he really be willing to give it up just like that

An Xuetang didn't even dare to say it herself. If she were in Mo Yunchen's position, she could let go of everything, so she didn't dare to comment on Mo Yunchen's actions.

She only felt sorry for Duo'er, who could have had a much better life, far away from the palace that devoured people and started anew. But now she was once again trapped because of so-called 'love'.

But at the end of the day, it was Duoer's own choice. If she truly didn't want to, with her abilities, no one could force her. So Duoer's situation can't be entirely blamed on Mo Yunchen.

This is what they call "tit for tat," isn't it

Mo Yunjing knew An Xuetang was only concerned about the flower, so he gently pinched her face and softly comforted:

"Everyone lives their life differently, this is the path she chose to take. Tangtang isn't her, so she can't understand her state of mind, therefore there's no need to feel sorry for her."

An Xuetang hummed, "Forget it for now. Let's talk about this another time. By the way, Ajing, what do you have to say about Hua Xiang's death today I heard she was your childhood sweetheart..."

As she said this, An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly, staring intently at Mo Yunjing. She wanted to let Mo Yunjing know that she wasn't the only one who could be jealous.

Since she saw Hua Xiang, she had always remembered the way Hua Xiang looked at Mo Yunjing. This made her very upset!

Mo Yun Jing helplessly curled her lips, "Speaking of childhood sweethearts, my age isn't the same as hers. Where did the childhood sweetheart story come from"

"Huxiang has always been close to her elder brother since childhood, while I have been the most disliked person by our father since I was born. Everyone would avoid me as soon as they saw me. How could we possibly have grown up together"

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly, and said with a hint of sarcasm, “A-Jing, your words sound like you’re regretting that no one wanted to be childhood sweethearts with you from a young age”

Mo Yunjing chuckled, gently ruffling her head, "Tangtang knows I don't mean that."

An Xuetang didn't argue with him anymore. Her expression darkened at this moment, "However, Ajing, Hua Xiang's death today really has nothing to do with me. The poison in her body was put there by the Empress' people."

"I know."

"It's good that the Empress killed her, I wouldn't have to lift a finger. Even if the Empress hadn't killed her today, I wouldn't have let her live another day. Besides her shameless coveting of you, I also remember that she poisoned Ziling. Today's events can be considered revenge for Ziling."

As for Hua Xiang's death, Mo Yun Jing's heart didn't ripple at all. To him, Hua Xiang was nothing more than a stranger who had spoken to him once; his life or death had never been of any concern to him.

After the two had finished what they needed to say, Mo Yunjing suddenly reached out and pulled An Xuetang over, making her sit on his lap. His dark eyes narrowed slightly, and then he feigned anger, twisting her waist lightly before saying menacingly:

"An Xue Tang, if you dare to use any beauty tricks on other men again, be careful I won't spare you. You must remember this: you belong to me, and others can't see that side of you!"

An Xuetang chuckled softly, she didn't know why, but seeing Mo Yunjing, who was so upset, she couldn't help but feel joy in her heart.

Perhaps...this is what love is. The more you love someone, the stronger your possessiveness over her becomes. She understands this feeling too.

The two held each other like that, whispering intimate words for what felt like an eternity, until there was a sound from the courtyard. Only then did they come back to their senses.

Mò Yún Jǐng pressed his forehead against An Xuě Táng's, "Tángtáng, you worked hard today. I'll go to the study with Yún Lìu to handle some matters. You should rest well first."

An Xue Tang knew that he and Yun Liu were going to talk about Mo Yun Chen, and she subconsciously disliked Mo Yun Chen, so Mo Yun Jing didn't want to mention him in front of her.

"Okay, you go. I'll go see Shuangshuang and settle her in."

"OK."

It was indeed Yunliu who made the sound in the courtyard, and Yunliu's expression was somewhat solemn.

Mo Yunjing unconsciously quickened her pace, taking the lead to leave Jingtang Garden. Yunliu bowed to An Xuetang behind her before following Mo Yunjing.

An Xuetang watched the two figures leave with a thoughtful look, sighing softly. It seemed that Mo Yunchen's departure hadn't gone as smoothly as expected.

At this moment, in a courtyard somewhere in the capital city, a man in black knelt on the ground. He had just said something when the person standing before him suddenly raised his foot and kicked him hard, cursing as he did so:

"Damn it, you can't even handle something this simple! What good are you"

After venting his anger, he couldn't control his rage and kicked the man in black again.

The Shadow in Black dared not anger nor speak, this moment only continuing to kneel on the ground. "This subordinate's work is incompetent, please punish me, Master,"

The standing man was also dressed in black, with a black mask covering his face. At this time, his blood-red eyes stared at the person on the ground and roared:

"Hua Xiang's last use was to lead An Xue Tang into the palace. You were supposed to kill her. Now, Hua Xiang is useless, and you haven't accomplished anything. Waste! You are a complete waste!"
