After Mo Xuan listened, he just smiled and looked at Xue Rui and didn't speak again.

Xue Rui was very embarrassed to be looked at by Mo Xuan like that, and then thinking that Mo Xuan had been missing for so long, he must have a lot of things to say to himself, so he hurriedly raised his sleeve to wipe the nose and tears off his face, but because he was too excited, although his face was wiped clean, he paused for a long time before calming down.

"Fifth prince, what happened during this time, since you disappeared that night, we secretly sent many people to look for it, and turned the capital inside and out several times, but we didn't find any news about you, you won't hide here all the time, right" After speaking, without waiting for Mo Xuan to reply, he said to himself, "Impossible, if that's the case, I'll come over a few times in the middle, it's impossible for Xin'er not to tell me, or is it that the eldest sister hid you because she didn't know your identity, and she didn't ......even tell Xin'er" Xue Rui became more and more entangled as he spoke.

Seeing Xue Rui talking to himself like this, in order to prevent him from continuing to entangle, Mo Xuan explained with a wry smile, "Don't think about it, I'm not in the capital during this time, and the reason why I appear here is because Yuqing rescued me." ”

"Save you, where is it, where are you injured, it's not serious, do you want us to go back to the house, or I'll go and inform Steward Cao, and ask him to send someone to the palace to find the imperial doctor to show you." As he spoke, he was about to take Mo Xuan's hand and walk out.

Mo Xuan finally settled in Li Yuqing's house, and the quilt was not covered with heat, so he was willing to leave, seeing Xue Rui's posture, he quickly shook his head and said no.

Seeing that Mo Xuan was unwilling, Xue Rui couldn't force him, so he had to resist the urge to sit down again.

"Fifth Prince, you must have suffered a lot during this time, and it's all because we didn't protect you. ”

"It's not your fault, no one knows, the villains are so rampant. ”

"You said you weren't in the capital during this time, and they brought you there. ”

After Mo Xuan listened, he looked into the distance and said in a flat voice, That night, as usual, I accompanied my mother after dinner before returning home, but I fell asleep not long after I got in the carriage, thinking that I must have been drugged by them, and when I woke up and heard their intermittent talking, I realized that I had been kidnapped, and after I found out, I took advantage of their inattention to sneak attack them, but although they were killed, I was seriously injured because of this, all the way down from the mountain, I met people who found that they were a hundred miles away from the capital, I thought that I was in a coma in the car for a long time, but fortunately their masters were afraid that I would cause a lot of trouble if I solved it on the spot, so they told them to take me away to solve it, otherwise I would have died。 ”

Listening to Mo Xuan's explanation, Xue Rui couldn't help but sigh a little, he knew that Mo Xuan must have had a bad time during this time, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

"I've been missing for so long, and my father and mother must be in a hurry."

"We didn't dare to tell the emperor, we have been secretly looking for you behind our backs all this time."

"Didn't say it" Thinking of what Li Yuqing said, Mo Xuan couldn't help frowning after hearing it.

Xue Rui nodded, "During this time, the emperor's health is not very good, the queen takes care of him every day, and he has lost a lot of weight, we are afraid that if we tell you about your disappearance again, it will hit them, so we have been hiding it now." ”

"What an excuse to use. ”

"It's nothing, it's just going out to ask for peace charms or something to show sincerity. ”

Mo Xuan's eyes couldn't help but widen after hearing this, and he said in disbelief, "Such blood, then they haven't suspected it for so long."

Xue Rui laughed dryly twice when he saw Mo Xuan's expression, and said embarrassedly, "I don't doubt it, it's just that every time I go back, I say that you will come back when you ask for something." ”

Mo Xuan was directly blindsided after hearing this, he thought that Xue Rui would find some excuse, but he didn't expect it to be this, asking for a peace charm, he has been wandering outside for so long, how many do you have to ask for a peace charm if you really want to ask for a peace charm, at this time, he doesn't have a peace charm on his body, even a piece of yellow paper, so when he recovers from his injuries and goes back, what will he give his father to lie, he suddenly has a feeling that he has been cheated by Xue Rui.

Seeing Mo Xuan like this, Xue Rui knew what was going on with Mo Xuan, and hurriedly explained, "I know that you didn't really ask for a peace charm, so I have already arranged someone to do it for you, you don't have to worry, anyway, as long as you have the heart, whoever asks for a peace charm is the same, we all hope that the emperor will get better soon." ”

Mo Xuan was right after hearing and thinking about it, and then he put his mind at ease.

After saying this, Mo Xuan suddenly remembered another thing, that is, he heard Li Yuqing say that since he disappeared, there were officers and soldiers at the city gate to investigate, originally he thought that his disappearance was known by the emperor, so he sent people to the city gate to investigate, hoping to find him, but now it seems that this is not the case, who could it be? And because of what? Mo Xuan felt that this matter was not simple.

"After Xue Rui disappeared from me, something big happened in the capital. ”

After Xue Rui returned to Beijing, although he put all his energy on finding Mo Xuan, he still had some understanding of what happened in the capital, and he didn't know why Mo Xuan suddenly asked like this, but he still told him very firmly that nothing major happened in his impression.

Mo Xuan was silent after hearing this.

Seeing Mo Xuan like this, Xue Rui thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "Fifth prince, do you suspect that the inspection at the city gate is related to your assassination." ”

Mo Xuan nodded.

"You can see who arranged it. ”

Xue Rui shook his head.

"I'm here to recuperate during this time, after you go back, except for telling Steward Cao about me, don't reveal my whereabouts to anyone, and ask Steward Cao to send some people to check who is at the gate of the city when nothing happened in the capital. ”

After Xue Rui listened, he got up and replied yes.

I talked to Mo Xuan about something else, and it didn't end until it was lunchtime.

Originally, after saying that, Xue Rui wanted to go back to the Five Princes' Mansion to tell Steward Cao about Mo Xuan, but seeing Li Yuxin coming over for lunch and looking at him with an expectant look, Xue Rui was a little soft-hearted, plus he hadn't seen Li Yuxin for a long time, thinking that Mo Xuan had found it now, he wouldn't have anything to worry about, so he stayed after a little entanglement.

Seeing that Xue Rui stayed, Mo Xuan didn't speak, because Li Yuqing didn't come back because he went out and didn't come back, and only the three of them ate together at noon.

Although Xue Rui stayed, he didn't dare to sit and eat with Mo Xuan because of his identity, Li Yuxin wanted to be with Xue Rui, and when he saw that he didn't dare to go to the table, he also yelled not to eat with Mo Xuan, Mo Xuan always wanted to marry Li Yuqing, so he naturally wanted to have a good relationship with them, at this time they didn't sit and eat with him, how could he cultivate his feelings.

Li Yuxin is Li Yuqing's own sister, he didn't dare to do anything, he only secretly glared at Xue Rui and asked him to pull Li Yuxin to sit down, and the three of them finished the meal with their own thoughts.
