Chapter 14: Crown Prince Wang Shizi Mo Gongyi

  Long Xilan saw the person standing inside at a glance, he had a pair of phoenix eyes that could intimidate people's hearts, and with just a light glance, the guards who were chasing after him immediately stopped in their tracks.

  "Roses, you've finally arrived! Grandfather has been waiting for a long time!" The man said, and with a big stretch of his arm, he pulled Long Xilan's body into his embrace, without paying any attention to the arrogant cavalry guards in the corridor.

  Long Xilan didn't know who this person was and understood that he was helping her out of the situation, so she didn't resist and let him hold her.

  Chen Xiao clearly saw the other's face, and immediately clasped his fists together in front of him, respectfully but straightforwardly saying: "So it was Prince Xian of Wang, I am Chen Xiao, Deputy Officer of the Jinling Cavalry Guard, under orders to search for Princess Xu. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

  The Crown Prince Mo Quan Han, courtesy name Gong Yi, came from a prominent family with five generations of meritorious service to the state and held a hereditary title of the first rank. His father, Mo Xian, was in a position of great power and influence in the current dynasty, and among the several elder ministers who wielded significant authority, Mo Xian was undoubtedly the most persuasive. This eldest son, Mo Quan Han, could ride a horse at the age of six, was proficient in both literature and martial arts by ten, and at fifteen, he took first place in both the literary and military exams, making him a child prodigy and a pillar of the state. However, this Crown Prince was unbridled and unrestrained, not caring that his talents were overshadowed, and compared to Xi Wang Li Huan's introversion, the two had a difference as vast as heaven and earth.

  No, visiting brothels is something that others can also do with such openness and confidence, without fear of gossip from outside.

  Chen Xiao was well aware of this person's temperament and feared that the other would make a mistake, so he brought up the great Buddha Xi Wang. However, he did not expect that his words would be exactly what Wang Shizi wanted to hear.

  "What a joke! The dignified Princess of Xú has actually fallen to the point of coming to this brothel, I wonder what King Xú would think if he heard you say that?"

  Chen Xiao immediately realized that he had made a mistake by mentioning Xi Wangfei in this place, and immediately lowered his head.

  However, the military order is difficult to disobey, and he cannot let go of any suspicious person. "I believe Wang Shizi also heard that there was an assassin in Guanlong Pavilion last night. When Mo Jiang led his men to patrol the city at night, they found a suspicious person sneaking into this building..."

  Mo Gongyi interrupted him and said: "You are on official business, Xiao Wang will not interfere, but please don't disturb Xiao Wang's interest!"

  As he spoke, he drew Long Yilan closer to the house.

  Chen Xiao didn't dare, and chased after him a few steps: "But Prince Wang, the girl in your hand——"

  "If you suspect that this rose girl is the suspicious person you think she is, she's right here and won't leave. However, you're not qualified enough, go back and invite King Xū, then Little Wang will allow it!" As soon as he finished speaking, the side room door was already closed!

  Long Xilan saw the crisis had been lifted and immediately turned around and pushed the person away.

  However, Mo Yu's palm was exceptionally powerful. "What, aren't you happy to see me?"

  Long Xilan didn't know him at all, but his words seemed to know himself?

  She quickly buried her head. "Thanks a lot for helping me out of the predicament just now, Prince Wang, but I'm not a rose."

  "Of course, I know you're not a thorny rose—" As he spoke, his eyes fell on her evasive cheeks and softly asked: "Jin Hua, are you angry with me? Why didn't you call me Gong Yi?"

  Long Xilan was taken aback, this person indeed knew Ji Jin Hua, and from the way he addressed him, their relationship wasn't simple.

  She hastily denied: "The prince is mistaken, I am not the one you are calling!"

  "I know you're angry, but since you've already asked someone to tell me to come here and wait for you, why are you still treating me like this?"

  Now, Long Xilan was even more puzzled!

  This means that someone has sent a message to Mo Gongyi, saying that Ji Jin will come to Chunman Building tonight?

  But Season Brocade had already died, and she was also mistakenly brought here by a twist of fate. How could it be such a coincidence?
