Chapter 151
The Cold Prince Dotes On His Wild Wife
In the Northern Courtyard of Jing Wang Manor, in Helian Yiâs study, Mo Liangyi stared coldly at the familiar man in front of him as she asked in a cold voice:
âWhat happened? Wings? âWhere is he?â
âRoyal Concubine, your subordinate is useless. When I heard the sound of movement in the study, Master was already gone. â
Mo Long suddenly recalled the four hall masters of the Dark Night Pavilion who had rushed over two days ago. They had been specially sent to protect their master.
âWhere are Windseekerâs group?â
âThis subordinate does not know.â The Master disappeared with them. â
Wushang also felt that something was off. A strange light flashed in the study, and when he rushed there, there was nothing left. Even the ice bed had disappeared!
âTrash!â Whatâs the use of having wings! Four martial arts experts protecting one person, could actually produce such a mistake! ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âPrincess, please punish me!â
Mo Long stared at Wushang, and when her emotions gradually calmed down, she calmly said to Helian Yi, âSend someone to look for him again! Remember, donât let anyone else see through your weakness! â
âYes, Princess.â
When Helian Yi left, Mo Li suddenly fell to the ground, her entire body lost in thought as she looked at the study room. Wushang had said that once there was a sound and a ray of light, when she entered again, she was no longer there.
Then, it was very possible that there were other exits in the study?
After a moment, Mo Li shut the door and the window tightly. She was alone in the study, searching for clues.
Two hours passed. When it was the tenth day, someone knocked on the door. Mo Long stopped and asked in a cold voice:
âWhat is it?â
The servant girl outside cautiously replied:
âPrincess, Prince ordered a servant to bring you some snacks, you should eat some more!â
Mo Long was stunned for a moment. She had almost forgotten that even though Helian Yi had disappeared, the âHelian Yiâ in Jing King Manor had only caught a cold.
Thinking of this, she stood up, leaned against the pillar next to the secret compartment, and said to the servant girl:
âIâm going to eat in the princeâs sleeping quarters. Bring them to me!â
âYes, Princess.â
With that, Mo Li turned her head and inadvertently glanced at a flying dragon embedded at the top of the secret compartment.
However, why was the wyvern so strange?
Mo Long stared at the wyvern and carefully examined both of its eyes. The wyvernâs left eye was different color from its right eye, where had she seen the color of the left eye before?
He tried his best to recall the color of the left eye of the flying dragon. Finally, Mo Xieâs eyes lit up. Thatâs right! The pendant between her eyebrows that Helian Yi had given her! It was the forehead pendant! The Flying Dragonâs left eye was exactly the same as the pendant on its forehead!
Could it be that there was some sort of secret behind this?
Without time to think, Mo Long hastily took out the pendant from between his eyebrows and dug out the gem in the middle. There was Helian Yiâs heart blood in it, so his eyes were blood-red. It was exactly the same color as the eyeball in the left eye. Could it be that the blood in his left eye was the blood of Wingsâ heart as well?
Mo Xie glared at the dragon, quickly took out his right eye, and placed the gem in his hand onto it.
However, she seemed to have thought too much into it. After placing it on the table, her pair of eyes looked the same, but there was no reaction at all.
Mo Lang looked at the dragon in disappointment, and reached out his hand to take out her gem, but then, all of a sudden, a dim light flashed, and a sound came from behind the secret compartment.
Mo Han was completely stupefied. He stared at the scene unblinkingly and was utterly shocked!
âItâs a secret passage!â Knock knock knock! The sound of someone knocking on the door rang out, causing Mo Xieâs body to tense up as he hurriedly took his gem and added in the dragonâs original right eye.
She straightened her clothes and walked over to open the door. Helian Yi looked at her worriedly and asked,
âAre you okay?â
Mo Long was stupefied, and suddenly let out a sneer, âYour Highness, what happened to you? What can happen to chenqie? â
âJust now, This King heard a sound from the study and thought youâ¦â
Wushang clearly noticed the disappearance of Helian Yi when the same light and movement, so he was worried about Mo Li, so he rushed over. Seeing that Mo Li was fine, he wondered if he was too nervous.
Mo Li looked at Helian Yi with a worried expression and said:
âChenqie is fine, thatâs why Iâm feeling depressed. Thatâs why Iâm looking for some books to read on the bookshelf.â If you are tired, go to sleep. Your concubine still wishes to read in the study room. â
Naturally, Wushang would not ask to accompany Mo Li in the study. After all, he was only here because, if a man and a woman were to be alone in a room, the master would be jealous and he would be the one to suffer.
Seeing that Wushang was still in a daze, Mo Li wanted to find out what exactly was going on in the secret passage in the study. She reminded Wushang,
âYour Highness, your body has not completely recovered yet. The wind is strong at night and the moisture is heavy. You should go back and rest first.â I went back to the southern courtyard after reading the book. â
âIf thatâs the case, thatâs good too. Then This King will go back and rest. â With that, âHelian Yiâ glanced at the maidservants guarding the entrance. âSend someone to the kitchen to prepare some midnight snacks for the wangfei!â
When Mo Liangyi heard the words of âHelian Yiâ, she hurriedly stopped her, âNo need, Your Highness. I ate too much at night, so I canât digest it. My concubineâs stomach is not feeling well these days.â
âAlright! Then This King will go back and rest. My beloved concubine, donât be too tired, huh? â
Mo Xie nodded his head, and watched as Helian Yi entered the chamber. Only when the candle flame in the chamber was extinguished did Mo Li heave a sigh of relief.
She said to the servant girl beside her,
âYou can all go down and rest. I shall return to the southern courtyard after reading the book. â
âThe maidservants looked at each other. They were tired after standing for a day, so they respectfully blessed themselves and left.â
At this moment, Mo Xie was left alone in the study. She gripped the gem in her hand tightly, and quickly repeated the actions of placing it down. She thought that if there was a sound, she would recite a poem to cover the sound with her voice.
Wushang, lying on his bed, heard Mo Xieâs cries. Seeing that her mood wasnât as bad as it was two days ago, he was relieved and gradually fell asleep.
Mo Long stared at the open secret compartment, at the structure inside that was even grander than the palace itself. He couldnât help but cover his mouth, staring at it with wide eyes, as if he couldnât believe what he was seeing.
Once inside, the secret compartment automatically closed, and Mo Li slowly walked down the stairs, step by step.
After going down the twenty-odd steps was a large hall. The interior was illuminated by the Night Pearls, and was as bright as day.
There were also all sorts of rare treasures on the shelves.
Mo Liâs eyes fell on a corridor to his right. On the wall of the corridor, there was a wyvern similar to the one in the study.
Even their eyes were so similar. Mo Li looked at them and thought:
âCould it be that there is another secret behind this? Or could it be that these flying dragons were the same as the one outside, they had to change their eyes in order to activate the mechanism? If thatâs the case, then wouldnât I have to go out and take out that eyeball first? â
