My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

"Your Highness. Just now, that Mu Clan's Seventh Master from the Divine Province went to the Marquis of Jiayuan's Estate to pay a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness." Suddenly, Huifeng's quiet voice broke Mo Lian's train of thought in his writing.

His wrist paused, and the character underneath his brush turned slightly crooked as he pressed his lips together silently for quite a while. Afterwards, he finished penning and sealing the letter he was working on before querying, "What's the situation."

"We were not able to investigate the specifics. We only noticed that that Seventh Master Mu left hurriedly after staying at the Marquis of Jiayuan's Estate for less than an hour."

"Nothing cropped up. It was even the marquis who personally escorted that Seventh Master Mu out the door."

Mo Lian creased his brows, unable to understand why Mu Jingrui of the Upper Three Provinces had sought out Qiaoqiao's parents.

"Have you readied everything for Ping'an Town?"

"Everyone is already in order. Your Highness, will we be heading there tonight?"

"Mhm." The red ink brush in Mo Lian's hand cracked in half. "We want all of them exterminated."

"Yes!"

At this time, inside an abandoned tavern in a small, rundown town just outside of Beilan City.

Indistinct stifled coughs came from a dark side room.

The candlelight flickered as Qiu San lit up a small, dim lamp inside the room. He quickly walked up to the bed and reported, "Sir, it is terrible. Black Cat and Her Highness Zheng both died inside the Pacification Pagoda. This subordinate investigated this with much difficulty! The king even ordered to whip Courtesan Zheng's corpse for three days and nights! The king is truly heartless enough! In any case, a day together as husband and wife means endless devotion for the rest of your life. He is not even taking into account the least bit of this devotion."

"Cough, cough-cough." Liu Yizhi's countenance had aged even more over these years.

Ever since that old fellow from the Holy Water Sect dragged him to the sky and implicated him with her self-detonation, his body hadn't recovered much during these three years.

This was especially the case since he also needed to hide from Northern Mo's crown prince here and there, so he wasn't able to eat or sleep well either. Sometimes, the alarm would sound in the middle of his cultivation, and he would have to instantly move away and seek out his next hiding spot.

"Don't bother about those things anymore." By now, Liu Yizhi's eyes lacked energy, and his disheveled white hair dangled on his face. With his back stooped over, he pressed a handkerchief against his mouth and coughed repeatedly before questioning, "How is the matter with you finding someone to pull strings for a ship to leave Northern Mo."

"A ship has been arranged, but this subordinate fears that we may encounter the Northern Mo soldiers' identity inspection at the wharf. At that time…"

"Cough, cough, cough." A cold light flashed past Liu Yizhi's eyes. "Just kill whoever dares to stop up from boarding."

This abominable Northern Mo crown prince who had been chasing after their Shuntian Prefecture these years, seemingly unwilling to stop until wiping them all out—he simply wasn't a man for not knowing his limits!

"How about Su Fang?"

"That old biddy probably didn't have the heart to see Her Highness Zheng's corpse thrown into the wilderness, so she went to bury her."

"So unnecessary. Cough, cough, cough!!" Liu Yizhi was so infuriated that his chest heaved with coughs. "If this exposes our whereabouts, I'll kill that old hag!"

"Sir can rest assured. This subordinate believes that Nanny Su is not that foolish."

"Humph, if it wasn't for that d*mned Black Cat who disregarded my order and ran off by himself to seek his death in front of the Northern Mo crown prince, how would he end up like this with no remains at all?" Liu Yizhi berated furiously, "Idiot! They're all idiots. I already said to lay low and wait until everything blows over! Yet none of the triplet brothers amounted to anything."

"Sir, don't worry. There are still more than a hundred people that are accompanying Sir. It will absolutely be no problem to escort Sir onto the ship."

Qiu San helped Liu Yizhi lie down, yet unfortunately, it wasn't even three seconds before the entire Ping'an Town heard the sound of an explosion.
