The Story Of Dusk

He didn"t really get it why Mo Xuan Fei asked him to help him, when he was the one who was sent to him by Mo Qian Yuan. It was strange, is that even possible if the relationship between the two people wasn"t as good as he thought.

Actually he didn"t really know about how their relationship either.

However there was only one thing that he was quite sure, the moment Mo Xuan Fei asked for his helped he was being sincere, as a desperate person who was looking for their savior.

Or…

Probably it was only Mo Qian Yuan another trick?

Earlier he received Mo Xuan Fei in his journey was only because he wanted to know what he was up to, he could learn their scheme by letting the enemy closer, but it was also has its own risked.

He could find someone who has the same grudge toward Mo Qian Yuan and became his insider or he could find another hypocrite enemy who would stab him on the back.

It was akin to a gamble. It depended how he played it. Whichever side he was chosen it would lead him to different risk.

"Liu Wei." Xiao Jun stood still before he opened the door toward Qianru and his room.

Out of nowhere, a man emerged from the dark and knelt before Xiao Jun. "Yes Master." Liu Wei lowered his head, ready to accept whatever task that Xiao Jun about to give him.

"Find out about Mo Xuan Fei." Xiao Jun said as he pushed opened the door. "I want to know everything about him."

The dim room greeted him as many candles had burnt and let the darkness surrounded it. Only a faint light from the moon above that was illuminating their room.

Xiao Jun stepped inside and turned around to close the door, but before he did so, he added. "You can start with the relationship between The Emperor and him."

"Yes Master." Liu Wei nodded politely as the door in front of him gradually shut close. Only then he stood up and jumped into the night, disappear in the dark.

Inside the room, Xiao Jun cleaned up himself from the battle with Mo Xuan Fei before.

Xiao Jun was sure that Mo Xuan Fei"s left arm was injured, but as long as he could remember, Mo Xuan Fei wasn"t part of military, he indeed joined them when he was young, but didn"t stay for long time before he chose to live a peaceful life.

If one only could describe him with only one word, then that word would be "peaceful". This portrayed him perfectly.

His life before this was far from conflict and politic. However, why suddenly he worked for Mo Qian Yuan and even helped him to spy on Xiao Jun?

It was a contrary from the information that he got before this.

Moreover, his sword skill wasn"t that bad, if only his left arm wasn"t broken, the battle would be ended for long time before one could declare their winner.

Another question past Xiao Jun"s head.

What happened with his arm? Why didn"t he treat it? The damage that had done would turn him crippled if he did nothing about it.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

He was a prince after all and he couldn"t afford to be like that.

The knot on his forehead deepened. He didn"t know this prince and never took him into calculation when he made a plan. For Xiao Jun he was just an insignificant person like the rest of abandoned princes, not like Mo Jingchen and Mo Qin Yi who played big role in the Emperor"s rule.

When he had changed his robe, he looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, but it would only take a while before the sun rose.

Xiao Jun walked toward the bed and found his beautiful wife was still sleeping, unaware about his presence.

Qianru had kicked her blanket while sleeping on her left side, curling her body like baby. Xiao Jun picked up the blanket and tucked her in again.

He caressed her hair and kissed her forehead before he climbed on the bed and stretched out his arms slowly to hug her, didn"t want to wake her up.

Feeling the familiar warm, Qianru snuggled deeper to his embraced and rested her head on his shoulder. She mumbled with eyes closed. "… Just come back…?"

"Hmm." Xiao Jun hummed as a reply and whispered to her ear. "Sleep."

Qianru did fall asleep again while hugging her husband, basking herself with his warmth.

The night was long for some person and was short for the other, there was someone who spent the entire night in confusion, there was someone who spent in quietness and there was someone who couldn"t afford to see the sun in the next day.

*** 

On the following day, Mo Xuan Fei didn"t come for having a serious talked with Xiao Jun and this let the prince bewildered, what actually he was up to.

He should come and explain himself why he needed his help, but he didn"t. Xiao Jun"s suspicion grew bigger as two days had pa.s.sed.

He would go for his long journey and left Qianru here, in this palace, within three days and since their last encounter, Xiao Jun had never met Mo Xuan Fei anymore, not even when he discussed a war strategy with Mo Qian Yuan, the Emperor of Zodasian and General Meng.

Mo Qian Yuan also had never mentioned him again as if the fight at that night had never happened in the first place.

However, on the third day, Xiao Jun received a detail report about Mo Xuan Fei from Liu Wei.

It was afternoon, when he coaxed Qianru to eat more, she had been having a morning sickness and the first thing she did when she woke up was vomiting, when Liu Wei came and relayed the information that he got.
