Chapter 88: Leaving overnight, Gong Moye's identity
Here's the thing.
Before leaving the Marquis' Mansion, I saw the butler preparing the carriage.
So Sheng Luoan subconsciously thought that he was going to leave in a carriage with Gong Moye.
The two originally planned to leave early the next morning.
Unexpectedly, when Sheng Luoan was sleeping soundly, Gong Moye suddenly woke her up from her sleep.
Then, in a daze, Gong Moye called him out of the yard.
All the way to the back door, he forcefully pulled her onto the back of the horse, and then left straight away.
Next, the two of them rode horses and ran all the way out of Jizhou.
"Gong Moye, are you hiding from a vendetta?"
After finally adjusting to a comfortable posture, Sheng Luoan asked lightly.
Gong Moye paused and made a strange "hum" sound, "How did you guess that?"
"Um, so what... your belt seems to have been loosened. If my guess is correct, you were in a hurry when you left and didn't fasten your belt, right?"
Gong Moye: "..."
After listening to Sheng Luoan's words, Gong Moye visibly paused, and a trace of stiffness appeared on his face.
He pulled the reins and controlled the horse to stop.
He turned over and dismounted, turned his back to Sheng Luoan, and tied his belt.
After all this is done, he mounts his horse seriously and continues to lead Sheng Luoan forward.
Sheng Luoan shrugged her shoulders. She knew that Gong Moye was embarrassed, so she didn't say anything immediately.
After about a day's journey, we came to a somewhat desolate villa.
Sheng Luoan was curious as to why Gong Moye brought him to such a desolate yard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I found that there was a cave inside the courtyard, which was in sharp contrast to the desolation outside the courtyard.
"Master Hou, what are we doing here?" Sheng Luoan asked strangely.
"Waiting for someone."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"Mo Qi."
"Does he also want to come with us?"
"No, there are just some things that he needs to report." Gong Moye raised his head and glanced at Sheng Luoan, "You should go to the yard first. There are many fruits planted in the backyard. Go and have a look yourself.
I’ll come with you later, be good.”
"oh oh."
Sheng Luoan hummed, turned around and walked towards the backyard.
She knew in her heart that Gong Moye had some things that he didn't want her to know.
So she was very sensible and left obediently.
Shortly after Sheng Luoan left, with a muffled groan, Mo Qi, covered in injuries, staggered in from outside the yard.
"Master Hou!"
When she walked to Gong Moye, Mo Qi immediately knelt on the ground, breathing hard.
"Mo Qi, you are injured!"
When Gong Moye saw this scene, he was shocked and walked over quickly to help Mo Qi up.
"Who hurt you like this?" Gong Moye asked worriedly.
Over the years, Mo Qi has followed him through life and death, and the two of them are as close as brothers.
Seeing Mo Qi being so seriously injured, Gong Moye's eyes were full of pain.
"Who on earth hurt you like this?!" Gong Moye asked again.
"Master Hou, it's... it's Lin Qing!"
"Sure enough, it's him!" Gong Moye frowned, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"The Marquis guessed it right before. After Lin Qing betrayed the Marquis, he has joined the prince's sect."
"This time the prince sent people to hunt down the marquis. It seems that he knew the true identity of the marquis and wanted to get rid of him!"
As soon as Mo Qi finished speaking, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth.
"Mo Qi!"
"Master Marquis, it's too late! Since the Crown Prince already knows the identity of the Marquis, he will definitely find ways to get rid of the Marquis. So, Master Marquis, don't hesitate any more. If you continue to hesitate, even His Majesty will not be able to protect you!"
Mo Qi persuaded her earnestly.
Others don't know how much Gong Moye paid to marry Sheng Luoan.
But he has been following him, and he can see clearly.
It was precisely because Gong Moye sought a marriage decree that Prince Jun Wenjun, who was originally suspicious of Gong Moye, dug out the truth that had been concealed for many years after a thorough investigation!
"Mo Qi, stop talking, I'll call a doctor for you right away!"
After finishing speaking, Gong Moye raised his hand to the void, and soon a cold voice came from the corner.
"Yes, Lord Marquis, I will go and ask the doctor right now!"
Then, Mo Qi could no longer hold on, her head tilted and she fainted.
Two men in black came over, lifted Mo Qi up, and walked toward the backyard.
At this time, Sheng Luoan was in the backyard, randomly picking fruits from the tree.
Then I heard some noise and quickly raised my head to see two men in black carrying the injured Mo Qi towards a room.
"Ah? What's wrong with Mo Qi?"
Sheng Luoan was worried and followed him. It looked like Mo Qi was seriously injured.
After walking less than two steps, Gong Moye happened to come over and said, "Mo Qi is injured, please don't disturb him."
"Oh." Sheng Luoan responded vaguely twice, and then asked: "What did he do? How did he get hurt like this?"
"I will tell you the cause and effect when I have time. Now I have to deal with Mo Qi's wounds."
After finishing speaking, Gong Moye calmly withdrew his gaze and walked in the direction of Mo Qi.
Sheng Luoan shrugged his shoulders and did not ask any further questions.
Soon, at night, the doctor had already treated Mo Qi's wounds.
Sheng Luoan stood at the door and heard Gong Moye inside the room, saying to Mo Qi in a serious tone: "You can rest here these days and don't need to accompany us to protect us."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." Mo Qi responded weakly.
Sheng Luoan was still wondering in his mind how Mo Qi could be so seriously injured suddenly.
But at this moment, Gong Moye suddenly came to her out of nowhere.
When Sheng Luoan raised his head, he saw Gong Moye's lukewarm face, "What are you doing squatting here?"
"I just came to see how the situation of guard Mo Qi was." Sheng Luoan smiled coquettishly.
"The horse is almost rested. Let's drive all night and try to reach Luanzhou tomorrow!" Gong Moye twisted Sheng Luoan up and reminded him word by word.
"What? Traveling all night? Are you fleeing for your life or fleeing from famine? Gong Moye, didn't you tell me that you were going out for a sightseeing trip? Why are you urging me to hurry now?"
"Besides, the horse has rested, but I haven't rested yet. I've been on the road all day, so you have to let me get some sleep, right?"
But Gong Moye didn't give her a chance to resist at all, he just twisted her neck and walked out of the yard.
"In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, we have to get to Luanzhou as soon as possible, otherwise you will be waiting to be used as a target!"
"What do you mean? Target? You mean, there are still people chasing us?"
Sheng Luoan's eyes widened in shock.
"Mo Qi came out just to cover us, that's why he suffered such serious injuries." Gong Moye said truthfully.
"What cover? Gong Moye, what are you plotting behind my back? You brought me to Luanzhou not to kidnap me and ask my grandfather for money, right?"
