Chapter 1231: Mutation

es' safety, they will fight desperately against those attacking their city."At this, An Xuetang nodded slightly, “Mother can’t guarantee anything, but the people only want to eat their fill, live peac...Seeing that their young master finally had the intention to leave, Lei Hong couldn't help but show a hint of joy.

But I still couldn't help but ask, "Then why didn't the young master agree to that person just now Wasn't he entrusted by the North Border Princess And he also needs the North Border Princess to give him the antidote. He wouldn't be playing any tricks, would he Young Master, why did you refuse just now"

Mo Junyi shook his head slightly, “Following him, will only harm ourselves.”

"!"

Lei Hong was puzzled. How could she have harmed herself

Isn't he here because of the princess from Beijiang

He is now poisoned. Without the antidote given by the Princess of Beijang, he would be dead. Therefore, this person should not dare to harm the young master.

Seeing Lei Hong's confusion, Mo Junyi smiled, "Do you think my father would be a fool This Sun Gaoting went to the capital, and before that, he had never proposed that this son should be a hostage."

"Yet, as soon as he arrived from the capital city, his first act was to petition my father to let him leave with me. My father, a man known for his suspicions, couldn't possibly have failed to consider this, nor could he have been unaware that it was orchestrated by my mother."

Lei Hong furrowed her brows, "Then, Young Master, what do we do next If Sun Gaoting can't help us, how will we escape The Crown Prince is being far too cautious. He has so many people watching us, we have no chance of getting out."

And after hearing their crown prince say this, he was even more worried that if Sun Gaoting confessed to the Northern Border Princess and revealed his purpose for coming to the Northern Border camp, would Mo Yunchen retaliate against their crown prince

After all, Mo Yunchen had already harbored the intention of killing their crown prince. If he knew that the Northern Border Princess was trying every means to save the crown prince, would he, in a fit of anger, do something to...

Lei Hong shuddered at the thought.

It seems their situation is becoming increasingly dangerous.

Mo Junyi fell silent for a moment, he didn't know what he was thinking, then looked at Lei Hong, "You just pretend you don't know about this, and I pretend we never saw General Sun tonight. We'll see how things develop tomorrow."

Tomorrow

Lei Hong was still a little dazed, but Mo Junyi obviously didn't want to explain. He slowly stood up and turned back to bed, "Sleep, tomorrow there will probably be another good show for us to watch."

"... "

Lei Hong had no choice but to press down on her curiosity, responding with a “Yes” before returning to her small bed and lying down.

Without much thought, he fell asleep quickly and soon his snoring filled the room.

Meanwhile, Mo Junyi on the other side was wide awake, still clutching the letter An Xuetang had given him.

This isn't the first time his mother has forced him to leave Beijiang. If it were just once or twice, it wouldn't be a big deal, but she repeatedly asks him to leave, even resorting to using her own body as an excuse. This time, he will leave no matter what.

He understood his mother and fifth uncle. If it weren't for some uncontrollable factors, they wouldn't repeatedly ask him to leave.

It seems that something must have happened between Hongniang and Fifth Uncle.

He did indeed want to protect the Northern Border for his fifth uncle, which he had fought so hard to keep. But to him, his mother's health was more important.

Now Fifth Uncle has gone to Youlan City, and only Mother is left in the capital. Mother is now pregnant, and he must go back to be by her side to feel at ease.

It's not easy to just leave...

Although I don't know what news Mo Yunchen got, he clearly didn't want to kill me these past two days. Instead, there was a hint of flattery in his demeanor.

But Mo Yunchen's obsession with explosives in his eyes was even greater than a few days ago, so he guessed that his father must have known the true power of explosives, which is why he didn't hesitate to lower himself and be soft towards him.

The more this was the case, the more he couldn't let Mo Yunchen succeed.

Ask him for the bomb-making instructions

In your dreams!

Even in death, he would never give it up.

……

The next day, Mo Junyi and Lei Hong, along with Dr. Liu, continued to tinker with the gunpowder formula as they had done every day before.

Dr. Liu didn't understand anything, he was only here to keep an eye on Mo Junyi.

It wasn't long before someone came to take Mo Junyi to see Mo Yunchen.

Hearing that Mo Yunchen wanted to see his young master, Lei Hong's hand holding the soil trembled. He subconsciously looked up at Mo Jiumo, a hint of worry in his eyes.

At this time, to find them, the young master, wouldn't it be that Sun GaoTing who said something to Mo YunChen

But Mo Junyi himself was very calm. He put down the materials in his hand and said to the two soldiers, “Wait until this young master washes his hands before we go.”

Those two soldiers bowed and said in unison, "Yes."

Lei Hong wanted to follow Mo Junyi, but was stopped by a look from Mo Junyi.

Dr. Liu looked at Lei Hong thoughtfully, then glanced at Mo Jinyi who had washed his hands and left with the two soldiers.

Not until he could no longer see Mo Junyi's back did he turn to Lei Hong, "Lei Hong, is there something between you and the young master that you are hiding from me"

Lei Hong came back to her senses and feigned confusion, "Huh What do you mean, Doctor Liu"

Doctor Liu's brow furrowed imperceptibly. He hadn't missed the tension in Lei Hong's eyes when she looked at Mo Junyi. If there were no secrets between them, he wouldn't believe it.

His gaze on Lei Hong grew slightly sharp, his voice a touch colder:

"Lei Hong, you need to know that the situation in the army is different now. The prince has long since lost patience with the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince does something to anger the prince, you must tell me old man beforehand so we can go together to find a way to protect the Crown Prince."

“...”

Lei Hong sneered inwardly. If it weren't for the Prince having told him beforehand that Dr. Liu was the Crown Prince's man, he would have almost been fooled by his current attitude.

Moreover, in the past two days, he and the prince witnessed Liu doctor and the masked man beside the crown prince interacting. The way they spoke to each other sounded very familiar.

So now, no matter what Doctor Liu says, he can't believe him. Even though he has spoken up for their young master many times in front of Duke Moyunchen.

But since the prince said not to believe it, he naturally wouldn't.

Thinking about this, Lei Hong still shook her head in bewilderment, "Doctor Liu, my husband and I are with you every day. What could we possibly hide from you"

Dr. Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Lei Hong, you don't trust me"

"No."

Lei Hong's expression was flawless, he just wouldn't admit it. Trying to get him to talk was impossible!

Just as he was about to lower his head and continue his work, Dr. Liu's eyes flickered, and a silver needle flew out of his hand.

aimed for Lei Hong's temple.

And when Lei Hong heard the faintest sound, he just raised his head, the silver needle was only a foot away from him, he didn't have time to react at all. it's the Crown Princess. She entered with the Emperor's imperial edict, claiming she wished to see the Prince. She's currently causing quite a stir throughout the manor."It turned out that it was Hu...
