As he spoke till here, Mo Li's eyes flashed, "Cloud City is one of the eight great cities of the Mystic Moon Empire. Only these eight cities would have a city governor. Every year, they would pay tribute to their ancestors, and also come to pay their respects to the imperial city.

These eight cities were passed down from their ancestors. Father wanted to take them back, but he had no good ideas. And Cloud City is the city which royal father used to make his move. "

Mo Li really didn't expect that the little girl Su Jinyue was talking about was actually the only daughter of the Cloud City Lord. Three years ago, he went to Cloud City once and saw this child.

The child is not yet open, just as it was. The only thing that changed was his height. Thus, he was able to easily recognize it.

He originally thought that he was just a child who had some sort of relationship with the Yun Family, but he didn't think that there would actually be such a relationship within. If he wanted to save this child's mother, he would have to make use of the Yun Family.

He didn't want to get into trouble.

"Tell me …" This child is the daughter of the City Lord? " Su Jinyue blinked her eyes and looked at Xiao Nu who was eating in disbelief. He couldn't believe that little servant would do as Mo Li said.

If that was really the case, why didn't Xiaonu say so at the beginning? Is it because you don't believe it?

Su Jinyue thought to herself as her expression became complicated.

"Little girl, I've seen you before. Your trick of deceiving her should be over. Speak, why did you seek her? " Mo Li looked coldly at the little servant and said unhappily.

Hearing that, the little servant looked up, her pair of black and white clear eyes were full of grievance, as if she was a bit confused: "What are you guys talking about? Little servant doesn't know. "

"Little servant? That's what you call yourself? " Mo Li smiled playfully. He was born extremely beautiful. Her smile was like the smile of a beautiful woman. It was so pleasing to the eyes.

However, in little servant's eyes, this smile looked a bit sinister. She unconsciously took a step back.

"It is unknown whether this child's words are true or false. He is no longer young." How could the daughter of the mayor not have any tricks up her sleeve? "A'Yue, don't believe her." Mo Li looked at Su Jinyue. He was afraid that she would be taken advantage of because her heart was too soft, and even get him involved.

Su Jinyue had a complicated expression on her face.

She could never have imagined that the child she found by the roadside was actually the daughter of a city lord. Moreover, there were only eight people who could become the City Governors of the Ming Empire.

That kind of status was no different from a duke with a feudal fiefdom.

Thinking about that, Su Jinyue's gaze turned cold. However, when he saw the little servant's innocent appearance, his heart trembled. The child's docility had long since penetrated deep into her heart.

"Xiaonu, don't worry. When the owner of the jade pendant comes, you can naturally save your mother. " Su Jinyue looked at the little servant and comforted him with a smile.

However, he had already made up his mind! This hot potato, he would definitely throw it to the Yun Family. She was already very troublesome to deal with. If the matter of the Cloud City Lord's daughter were to enter the eyes of the Emperor, she would truly be in danger.

Moreover, little servant originally wanted to look for someone from the Yun Family, so she couldn't be considered to have abandoned little servant.

Thinking like this, Su Jinyue became much calmer.

Su Jinyue's words made Xiao Nu heave a sigh of relief. He had thought that she would not help anymore, and was still willing to help her find members of the Yun Family. That was good.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nu hugged Su Jinyue's waist and buried his head in her stomach. He looked like he had been wronged, which made Su Jinyue feel helpless.

"Your Highness, it's about time." Uncle Qing's respectful voice sounded from outside the door. Mo Li who was in the room came to his senses. Looking at Su Jinyue who was hugging her child, he pulled her up, "Let's go, we still have something to do today."

Su Jinyue nodded. Then he left with Mo Li.

However, what Su Jinyue did not see was that after she left, a trace of complexity that did not belong to her emerged in the little servant's originally innocent eyes.

He thought he could keep it a secret for a while longer. It was all the fault of the crown prince!

The little servant thought as he angrily took a bite of the bun. His eyes darted around and finally he curled up on a chair. He slowly closed his eyes.

It wasn't that she didn't want to tell Jin Yue her identity, but … Her father had been taken away in a strange way, and her mother had been sent to prison. If she were to accidentally reveal her identity, she might not be able to escape death.

She had used the lives of countless people in exchange for being able to survive, so she could not trust anyone. At least, not before she saved her mother!

The little servant thought and silently finished the bun. However, his eyes were filled with tears.

Su Jinyue and Mo Li got on the carriage, and Uncle Qing drove the carriage slowly towards the Peach Blossom Town outside the capital.

At this moment, Su Jinyue finally understood the importance Mo Li placed on this matter. Letting the housekeeper drive the carriage was probably because he didn't trust others, right?

"Even though I said that I am welcoming Grandmaster Mu into the sect, it is actually a ceremony. The princes had to go to the Rites of Heavenly Worship. As for you, you are my future princess consort. Remember, if there's anyone in Peach Blossom Town who wants you to go with them, you must not. "

Mo Li looked at Su Jinyue and reminded her.

Hearing this, Su Jinyue was stunned, "What?"

"You have made too many enemies in the capital, and there are many taboos in the Peach Blossom Town. If you follow someone else and fall into a trap without knowing a thing, even I won't be able to save you. " Mo Li frowned with a serious expression.

"What kind of place is the Peach Blossom Town that you spoke of?" Su Jinyue looked at Mo Li and asked.

"Peach Blossom Town is close to the mountain. It is where Master Mu lives. The entire town is filled with its servants. And in Peach Blossom Town, there were many rules. The man was none other than Master Mu.

Every year, the royal family would choose to sacrifice to the heavens in Peach Blossom Town. And near Peach Blossom Town, there would be many traps. If you accidentally fell into a trap, the only thing waiting for you was punishment.

In fact … Some people will even think that you have offended the heavens. " Mo Li frowned when he mentioned this.

Every time he came to Peach Blossom Town, he felt very uneasy.

"So you're saying that the Peach Blossom Town is filled with danger and is the safest place to be by your side?" At this moment, Su Jinyue finally understood what Mo Li meant.

However, most of them were worried about Teng Qingshan.

She seemed to understand something.

"Stay by my side." Mo Li looked at Su Jinyue and said indifferently.

Hearing that, Su Jinyue blinked and nodded, "Okay. However, you said that the Peach Blossom Town is near the mountain? I wonder how close it is? "

"It should only take around four hours." Mo Li said indifferently.

When Su Jinyue found out, she seemed to understand why that Old Fox Su wanted her at home. Who knew if Old Fox Su had already known about the matter regarding the return of State Grandmaster Mu today.

He also knew that she was going to Peach Blossom Town.

Even though he already made an agreement with her, he probably still hoped that she would die, right? If she were to die … They could just find a person, Li Dai Tao, or perhaps, with the agreement between her and the Su family as the reason, they could find the people from Tantai clan. Seize her share of the property.

Or … Their goal was to make her name known for thousands of years.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyue couldn't help but laugh mockingly. This was truly being too forgiving. Even though Old Fox Su felt that he had won, he still wanted to come up with all sorts of tricks.

Moreover, from the looks of it, this method was not something that Old Fox Su had done himself. Maybe Su Jin Xiu too? The woman and she had already reached a point of no return.

While thinking, a trace of coldness flashed across Su Jinyue's eyes.

There was still a trace of sadness in his heart. Perhaps this was something the body itself had brought with it? After all, before his predecessor died, he had treated the people of the Su Clan as his own family.

Who would have thought that his family would treat him like this?

Peach Blossom Town was about half a day's journey away from Beijing. Su Jinyue and Mo Li were sitting on the carriage. One of them had his eyes closed and was resting, while the other was looking at each other.

Mo Li looked at the woman beside him with her eyes closed. He knew that she wasn't asleep, but he still couldn't help but want to look at her and then at her. This idea was very strange.

It had probably started when he had brought Nangong Ruyue back to his residence yesterday. He hated Nangong Ru Yue and didn't wish for other women to appear in the crown prince's residence. Probably because he was afraid … Su Jinyue, you must be sad.

This thought made him want to laugh.

Su Jinyue was his chess piece. With some tricks, he could get the imperial edict from his father. How could he care about the thought of using this chess piece to control Luo Mingyu?
