Rich branches, blocking most of the moonlight.

A small amount of sparse moonlight shone through the dense branches, dappled and sprinkled on Mo Chenyi's face.

His handsome features were hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see emotions.

After a while, he chuckled lowly, "That's better." ”

Shen Feng was even more puzzled: "Your Highness, are we looking for a living person or a corpse?" ”

In response to him, the leaves fluttered and fell.

Shen Feng looked at the empty branches and scratched his head in confusion.

Immediately, he quietly left.

"Your Highness, the Fourth Highness has come down." Not long after, someone from the second prince's mansion came to report.

Ember retracted her thoughts.

He glanced at the hairpin in his hand and carefully put it away, "Bring him here." ”

"Let's cook some wontons and shrimp porridge in the dining room."

"Yes, Your Highness." The little guy bowed and stepped back.

After a while, Mo Chenyi held a wooden bamboo horse toy and lowered his head to the Ink Ember Underworld.

He was not as usual, and he stuck to his side as soon as he saw the embers.

Instead, he stood at the door with some anxiety, and looked at him timidly from time to time.

Ember looked at him with a gentle expression, "What's wrong?" ”

Mo Chenyi bit the corner of his lip, his eyes were wet, clear and harmless.

He cautiously raised his eyes to look at the ink embers: "Brother...... Brother ......"

"Well, come and sit down, the second brother has asked the dining room to prepare your favorite wontons, and it will be fine in a while."

When Mo Chenyi heard this, his pupils trembled slightly.

His eyelashes drooped, and his fingertips rubbed the bamboo horse restlessly, "Brother, Chen Yi thinks...... Think...... I want to ask my brother ......."

He snorted, unable to finish a sentence.

Ember smiled helplessly: "Little Four, what's wrong with you today?" If you want to ask the second brother, just ask directly. ”

As he spoke, he stood up and took Mo Chenyi's hand.

As soon as he touched his hand, the tip of Mo Ember's eyebrows frowned slightly, "Why don't you wear more, your hands are cold like this." ”

With words of reprimand in his mouth, he waved his sleeves, closed the window with internal force, and pulled Mo Chenyi to sit on the low couch.

turned around and went to the inner room to get a cloak and draped it on Mo Chenyi.

"Little four, when you come out to find your brother in the evening, you have to wear more clothes, do you know?"

Mo Chenyi pursed the corners of his lips and hummed lowly.

Mo Ember raised his hand and touched the top of his hair, sighed softly, and looked at Mo Chenyi with a complicated expression, "What did Xiao Si want to ask my brother just now?" ”

Mo Chenyi pinched the bamboo horse hard with his fingertips.

After a pause, he slowly spoke, "Brother, if Xiao Si deceives you, will you be disgusted with Xiao Si?" ”

The boy's voice is clean, and there is no trace of childishness.

The embers of ink sank.

His hand, which landed on the top of Mo Chenyi's hair, unconsciously raised a little.

The color of Mo Chenyi's eyes suddenly turned cold.

The rich dark color slowly spread under his eyes.

Just when his mood gradually reached the edge of mania.

Mo Ember asked softly, "Little Si, did you order the cold Gu on Ah Yan's body?" ”

The mania in Mo Chenyi's heart suddenly condensed.

He raised his eyes suddenly, his face was extremely shocked, and he was sad and incredulous, "Brother, do you think I'm this kind of person?" ”

Ember met his sad and shocked gaze, and his heart felt as if it had been slammed with a heavy hammer.

He looked away, and his voice floated lightly, "Those hundreds of thousands of soldiers three years ago, was it your Gu?" ”

Mo Chenyi yelled out of control: "No! ”

He shook his head in a panic and helplessness: "Brother, you believe me, it's really not me, I haven't done ......"

"Then why did you go to the Underworld?" Ember closed his eyes slightly, and interrupted him lightly.

Mo Chenyi stopped suddenly.

Ember Ming slowly opened his eyes: "Little Fourth, Second Brother hopes a lot, you have never left the palace." ”

Mo Chen burst out laughing, his low laughter was full of self-deprecation, "Second brother, if I don't leave the palace, can I live until now?" ”

Ember looked at his self-deprecating appearance, and his heart was blocked.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say that the second brother would protect you.

But he couldn't spit out a syllable.

If there is no mother to protect him, he ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to live now.

The fourth brother has pretended to be stupid since he was a child, also in order to survive.

He wasn't wrong.

Mo Chenyi put the bamboo horse in his hand on the table: "Brother, this is my birthday gift that you carved with your own hands when I was ten years old." ”

His gaze fell on the rough carving of the bamboo horse, and his voice fluttered, "Do you remember my brother's blessing to me on my tenth birthday?" ”

Ember Dark's heart trembled.

He slowly stretched out his hand, his fingertips just touching the bamboo horse, and suddenly retracted.

"My brother said, please God bless me and let me recover my sanity as soon as possible." Mo Chenyi spoke softly.

He pulled out a smile that was more ugly than crying: "At that moment, I really wanted to confess to my brother." ”

"But I'm afraid, afraid that my brother will be disgusted with me for deceiving you and will no longer protect me."

He raised his hand, the back of his hand crossed the tail of his eyes, his pale and thin fingertips, and he tightly grasped the collar of the cloak on his body, "Brother, I didn't give the third brother a cold Gu, nor did I give the hundreds of thousands of soldiers a Gu." ”

As the sound fell, he slowly stood up and staggered out.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I almost collided with the little guy who came with a wonton.

"Fourth Highness, where are you going? Your favorite shrimp wonton is cooked, don't you eat it? The little servant held the wonton steadily, looked at Mo Chenyi who ran out of the courtyard in surprise, and shouted loudly.

"Little four, stop!" As soon as the little servant's voice fell, he heard a cold drink from his Royal Highness.

Immediately afterwards, His Royal Highness hurried towards the Fourth Highness.

The little guy blinked: "What's wrong with the Fourth Highness?" ”

His question was destined to go unanswered.

Mo Ember quickly chased him out and grabbed Mo Chenyi's hand, "Little Fourth, Second Brother believes in you." ”

Mo Chenyi's fingertips slammed into his palm.

His eyelashes fluttered.

After a while, he slowly raised his eyes, "Brother......"

Mo Ember looked at his reddish eyes and sighed softly, "Let's sleep in the Second Brother's Mansion tonight, and we'll go to the Third Brother's Mansion tomorrow morning." ”

Mo Chenyi bit the corner of his lip and hummed lowly.

The next day, when the two came to Mo Yingyan's mansion, they were told that before dawn, Mo Yingyan and Su Ruotang left the capital.
