Chapter 3691: 4.1291 I'll Confess Everything!
"How could that be?" Mo Lian chuckled, putting his arm around his little wife. He raised a hand and rubbed her small face. "Whoever dares to speak ill of my wife, I'll beat them up."
Grandmistress Qiao blinked. "What if your maternal grandfather is talking about me?"
Mo Lian laughed, saying without hesitation, "Beat him up. Let him stir up trouble when he doesn't even know how good Qiaoqiao is."
The little one pursed her lips, her small face serious. "Your maternal grandfather must be saying I have a terrible temper right now!"
"How could that be?" Mo Lian couldn't help but laugh, reaching out to brush a wisp of dark hair from her eyes.
Then he cupped her small face with both hands, gazing steadily at her. "My Qiaoqiao's temper isn't bad at all."
The little one nodded in agreement, saying, "You're right. I usually can't be bothered to argue with people, and I don't like getting angry."
It was just that Shan Yisu was too much!
If she didn't get rid of her and let her annoy her all day, how could that be acceptable?
Besides, it had already been proven that Shan Yisu was from Heaven's Destiny; she thoroughly deserved to die, didn't she?
"Lian," the little one squeezed closer to him, wrapping her arms around his waist and softly asking, "Now that we have time, tell me everything about yesterday's matter honestly."
"I'll confess, I'll confess everything." Crown Prince Mo nodded repeatedly, shamelessly selling out his friend, Duan Yue.
"Well, Duan Yue sent me a message. That Rong Li from Cangzhou is crazy; he actually brought people wanting to capture you."
"Things were already troublesome enough; who knows how many people were hoping our wedding would go wrong?" Crown Prince Mo said, annoyed. "So I contacted Duan Yue beforehand."
"It's always best to strike first." When Crown Prince Mo said this, he truly didn't feel that he had been too ruthless.
Thinking back now, he still felt a slight lingering fear.
If the matter of Qiaoqiao possessing a portable spiritual domain had truly been spread by Rong Li, the future troubles might have been even greater.
Qiao Mu's bright eyes stared intently at the man beside her.
"So you set a small trap to make that Rong Li walk right into it?"
Qiao Mu couldn't help but blink curiously. "Duan Yue's message was unclear. How would Rong Li know about my portable spiritual domain?"
"Remember Chen Baojia, who escaped?"
"Chen Baojia went to Cangzhou?"
"Chen Baojia was abducted by Ba Shu from the academy."
Qiao Mu suddenly understood. "No wonder we never found that woman. The Chen family even insisted that I had hidden her! How absurd."
"Chen Baojia reported my matter to Rong Li, and Rong Li wanted to capture me?"
Qiao Mu clarified the sequence of events, nodding her small head. "So you and Duan Yue acted against him first. But he seemed fine when he attended the banquet earlier."
Mo Lian smiled slightly.
The little one's eyes suddenly widened, a look of sudden realization on her face. "I know! The Rong Li we saw tonight, he..."
Mo Lian gently covered her small mouth with his hand. "Alright, alright. It's very late tonight. Let's get some early rest. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you somewhere."
After the carriage arrived at the East Palace, Mo Lian reached out, scooped the little one into his arms, and strode into the bedchamber.
Grandmistress Qiao, seeing the bedchamber door, inexplicably felt her body soften. She couldn't help but exclaim, "What are you doing?"
