Chapter 53: The Calm Before the Storm
In the early morning of Marshall City, the capital of the Tianlan Empire, the streets of Steiner were already full of people and lively, and a magnificent mansion stood tall at the intersection of the streets.
In a courtyard in the mansion, on the platform of Xie Shuilou, Mo Qing, the little marquis in a gorgeous costume and a jade crown, was playing chess with a short boy with a thin body and long brown hair.
"Little Hou Ye, there is news coming!"
A guard walked in, holding a whirlwind bird in both hands and said respectfully.
After Mo Qing took the whirlwind bird, he habitually waved his hand at the guard and asked him to step back.
"Feng Dajia is in the Soul Broken Mountain Range, and he met the kid who his father ordered to be captured alive three months ago, and he also rescued the woman I wanted to capture, I am really impatient!"
Mo Qing used his spiritual power to condense a bird-shaped pattern, which was imprinted into the whirlwind bird's body, and after learning the information from Feng Dajia, he said angrily.
"I heard about that kid, but they completely offended the Capricorn clan, and they are worried that they can't find that kid!"
The short boy said slowly, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.
"Demon Night, what do you mean?"
Mo Qing rolled his eyelids, knowing that the short boy had a good idea again.
"How easy it is to kill someone, but some people are alive and will be more valuable than dead, isn't Lord Hou always looking for opportunities to weaken the strength of the Capricorn Clan?"
"Let's tell the news of this kid to the Capricorn clan and let them kill each other, when the time comes, we can not only clean up that kid, but also weaken the strength of the Capricorn clan, and also obey the Hou Ye's wishes, wouldn't it kill three birds with one stone?"
Demon Night said confidently.
If Leo had been here, he would have found out that this Demon Night was none other than the brown-haired boy who had fought him in Wadden Valley before.
"Great idea, just do it!"
Mo Qing smiled contentedly.
"Wait, if this news is only known to the Capricorn patriarch, it will be more interesting!"
A meaningful smile appeared on the face of the demon night boy Lao Cheng.
"Looks like there's a good show!"
Mo Qing smiled wistfully.
In the Soul Broken Mountain Range, Feng Dajia did not immediately bring people to capture Leo, but waited for Mo Qing's reinforcements in place, and once the personnel were in place, they would encircle and suppress Leo.
"Senior brother, the reply from the little marquis has arrived!"
A Blazing Rainbow Sect disciple walked over and said while holding the whirlwind bird that Feng Dajia had released last night.
However, after reading the information in the Whirlwind Bird's body, Feng Daga's face was full of displeasure.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?"
After the Blazing Rainbow Sect disciple looked at Feng Dajia's face, he asked hesitantly.
"The fat to the mouth, flying!"
Fontaga said helplessly.
"The little marquis has an order, continue to search for Mifuya's whereabouts, bring her back as soon as possible, and we don't have to worry about the rest!"
After Feng Dajia settled down, he announced to everyone as if nothing had happened.
"...... this?"
"What is this, don't you see that Senior Brother is on fire all over his body now, and he still wants to touch this moldy head?"
One was a disciple of the Blazing Rainbow Sect who was about to ask a question, but was stopped by another disciple in time.
After hearing the news, everyone was dejected, originally thinking that they could take advantage of this new discovery to ask for credit and reward, but in the end it was empty joy.
"Don't forget to help me catch the mask boy, when I catch him, I will definitely pump his tendons, skin him, stew his meat, and boil his soup for everyone to drink, hahaha!"
After Mo Xun finished announcing, he immediately burst into laughter.
In his heart, only the capture of the mask boy is the most important thing, and the rest has nothing to do with him.
"The second young master has always been revenge, and those who offend him never end well, that mask boy is going to die this time!"
"What is a death is determined, it is not a good death, and the people who fall into the hands of the second young master have always been unable to survive or die!"
"Do you remember the last time I was in the trading market, the poor sour boy who sold demon cores?"
"The second young master fell in love with a piece of his demon core, but he refused to give it, saying that he wanted to change lapis lazuli for the old lady to see a doctor, but the second young master cut off his hands and feet, beat him severely, and snatched all the demon cores. ”
"Therefore, it is better to offend the king of Hades, than to offend this second young master!"
"But I heard that the masked boy is not an idle person, and he dared to snatch the dragon heart fruit that the second young master wanted from Feng Dajia's hands, and in the past few days, the second young master has gathered so many people to look for him all over the mountains, but there is no trace of him. ”
"You are stupid, offending the second young master is offending the Moxihou Mansion, in this Phil Continent, is there anyone who can't be found in the Moxihou Mansion?" ......
After listening to Mo Xun's words, the people below all quietly discussed.
However, in another jungle in the Soul Broken Mountain Range, Leo, who had no idea about all this, still talked and laughed with Mifuya, and the two talked and laughed along the way.
When encountering monsters, Leo always takes the lead and quickly kills them, opening the way for Mifuya.
After all, he is a hot-blooded boy, and when he meets such a beautiful girl like a flower, Leo unknowingly acts as a messenger to protect flowers.
"Why are Feng Dajia and Mo Xun chasing you?"
Leo asked.
After a day and a night together, Leo discovers that Mifua is a very good girl to get along with.
Even Min Nan, who looks fierce and vicious, is actually not bad, she is just habitually very wary of strangers.
As a result, Leo is no longer as reserved as he was when he first met them.
"What's the matter with you, asking so much?"
Before Mifuya could speak, Min Nan shouted at Leo first.
Min Nan knew that Mifuya would tell Leo something, but the more others knew, the more dangerous it became to Mifuya.
"This matter is a little difficult to take a tooth, I am actually the eldest lady of the Tianlan Empire's Shogunate Mansion, once Mo Qing, the little marquis of the Moxi Hou Mansion, came to the mansion as a guest, and after seeing me, he coveted my beauty and wanted to plot against me. ”
"After being stopped, he still pestered me, and he went to the house many times to harass me, and finally came to propose marriage shamelessly, asking me to be his concubine, he has married more than a dozen wives and concubines before and after, how can I be willing to be humiliated. ”
"Mo Qing saw that I didn't obey, so I started with my father, my father has been an official in the court for many years, and he is in a high position, so it is inevitable that there will be many stumbling blocks and concerns, Mo Qing coerced and lured his father, and my father had no choice but to agree to marry me to him. ”
"When I learned about this, my mother couldn't bear it, so she helped me escape from the house, and sent my personal maid Min Nan to accompany me all the way to protect me. ”
"Before leaving, my mother gave me the family heirloom, the Phantom Musical Instrument, and repeatedly told me not to return to the Shogunate. ”
Mifuya ignored Min Nan's concerns, but used a soft and sweet voice to share her situation with Leo one by one.
"Isn't the monarch of the Tianlan Empire Emperor Lan? Could it be that he just let the people of the Moxi Marquis Mansion behave recklessly at the feet of the Son of Heaven and let it go?"
Leo asked indignantly after hearing this.
He really couldn't imagine that the daughter of the big family in the dignified imperial capital was just a plaything in the hearts of the powerful, and a woman's lifelong happiness was so insignificant in their eyes.
"Emperor Lan, the power of Moxihou has increased day by day over the years, and there is a great tendency to replace it, and Emperor Lan himself is too busy to take care of himself, how can he still care about these small things. ”
"Besides, I am an innocent daughter, how can I make these ugly things that damage my reputation public?"
Mifuya burst into tears, and the pear blossoms brought rain.
Leo couldn't help but feel pity in his heart, and regretted what he had just said.
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you in the future and never let anyone bully you again!"
Leo suddenly said something stupid.
"That's what you said, you can't go back!"
Mifuya suddenly burst into laughter, blinked her eyes wide, and said to Leo seriously.
"Of course, of course there will be no reversal!"
Leo felt as if he had said the wrong thing again, and stammered in response.
I thought to myself, this usually very smart head, why didn't he listen to the call at the critical moment?
Seeing that Leo agreed, Mifua was satisfied and smiled like a spring.
