The first thing that flashed into Mo Qin Yi"s mind when Lin Xingyan"s name was mentioned was her sister Lin Yiren, because the later was one of Zhao Tianqi"s close friends. At least she has the same interested with his wife, therefore they both fit with each other."What"s about her?" Mo Qin Yi asked again curiously, what was it about that could make this personal guard so in rush?
"I got news about the relationship between Imperial concubine Lin Xingyan and Prince Mo Xuan Fei." Nian replied, his eyes cautiously stared at Ye Ling as if he was afraid he would s.n.a.t.c.h his sister if he slightly let his guard down.
"Lin Xingyan and Xuan Fei?" Mo Qin Yi"s brows knitted together, his eyes turned hazy when he remembered the relationship between the two, before Lin Xinyang married his father and became part of his harem.
Could that be possible if they were…
"What the news?" Mo Qin Yi asked in low voice.
"Imperial Concubine Lin Xinyang has been in relationship with Prince Mo Xuan Fei, though she was married the Emperor." Nian reported it concisely.
If it wasn"t for Zhao Tianqi was having interest toward Mo Xuan Fei, he wouldn"t be tasked to follow him.
That night, there was something off in Mo Xuan Fei"s courtyard when Nian arrived and couldn"t see a single guard there, he knew something must have been happening inside.
However the moment he came, it was too late and all he saw was b.l.o.o.d.y scene inside Mo Xuan Fei"s room.
There were three a.s.sa.s.sins there, but all three of them were dead and one even missing his head, in spite of that Nian couldn"t find the body of Mo Xuan Fei. So he a.s.sumed the prince was still alive.
But, he couldn"t find him anywhere, only when he saw the traced of blood on the ground, he realized it lead toward the Imperial"s study room.
He saw how remarkable Mo Xuan Fei"s fighting skill when he fought hundreds of people that came toward his way. He was akin to a beast that went berserk.
Blood everywhere, even the air was defiled with that metal smell. In the end, Mo Xuan Fei came out as the only survivor.
He proceeded to the Imperial study room and only at that time, Nian heard something that he shouldn"t hear. A shocking news that would turn his mistress into frenzy if she heard about it.
From the thing that he knew, Zhao Tianqi has a deep affection toward Mo Xuan Fei after she married the crown prince Mo Qin Yi, but because of her status and all, she couldn"t show it.
Mo Qin Yi himself had known about this, but he turned blind eyes as he didn"t like Zhao Tianqi that much either, as long as she could refrain herself from doing something that could smear his image, it was enough for Mo Qin Yi.
He could use Zhao Tianqi wrong doing to suppress her to gain more benefit from Zhao family.
Their marriage was all about loss and gain, not about love and affection.
"However, a guard spotted my hiding place and chased after me. He didn"t know who am I, but it wasn"t safe for me to return." Nian recited the event that only happened days ago, but it felt like those things had happened for years.
He had been locked up in this cell without window as he lost in time, he didn"t know whether it was day or night, all he knew was he would receive another torture again and again.
"Then only when the banquet started you came out and wanted to inform this to crown princess Zhao Tianqi?" Mo Qin Yi put the remaining story together and concluded the end.
"Yes." Nian said emotionlessly. He let out a heavy sigh.
He had been trained to be a loyal guard, but now he was betraying his master. However, to think about it again, he didn"t really regret it.
This matter no longer between his life and death, but it also involved his sister. Those Zhao family had promised him to keep his sister save, but they didn"t keep their word, so why he should?
Mo Qin Yi looked satisfied. He stood up and clapped his hand. "Alright, there was nothing that I want to know anymore from you." He murmured lightly.
With that, he was about to walk out of the cell when Nian was demanding his promise.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"Wait! You said you will let my sister and me free!? You have to keep your promise!" Nian crawled toward the cell door, which was almost locked by Ye Ling.
Mo Qin Yi stared down at him as he tilted his head and blinked his eyes innocently. "Did I say that?"
"You said it!" Nian roared, it only took him two second to realize Mo Qin Yi"s intention.
"Did I say that?" Mo Qin Yi repeated his question to the other guards who present.
"No, Master. You have never said something like that." Ye Ling quickly caught his master hidden intention behind his question. He glared at the two guards behind him who also echoed the same thing. "He must be so desperate so he is hallucinating about something that he never heard." Ye Ling added with a mocking tone.
"See? No one ever heard I said something like that." Mo Qin Yi curled a derisive smile while looking at him provokingly.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I will kill you!!!" Nian let out his frustration and kicked the metal cell, banging his head to escape from this h.e.l.l.
"But, I remembered that I promised to give your sister to my guards." Mo Qin Yi looked at the disorder man and scoffed. "Take her sister."
Nian stopped shouting and crawled back toward his sister, hugged her tightly until he could feel his broken bone misplaced. The teenage girl was crying when the two guards pried his brother"s hand from her and s.n.a.t.c.hed her away.
"YOU WILL SUFFER A TERRIBLE DEATH!"
That was the last thing that Mo Qin Yi heard before he stepped out from the dungeon.
"Kill both of them after." Mo Qin Yi gave an order to Ye Ling coldly.
