Chapter 017
Showa curled his lips proudly, "Who else could it be if he wasn't a genius like me? Speaking of which, it's all thanks to the token that my biological mother gave me back then. Without it, how could I possibly survive in such a short time?
He became rich under the eyes of the Yun family within two years?"
He was obviously smiling, but Xia Houlie could not see a trace of joy on his face.
Xia Houlie ordered people to bring wine, and the two brothers sat on the jade steps and started drinking.
"What are your plans for the future? You won't come back and have a look before leaving, right?"
Zhaohe remembered Mu Qingwan's words, shook his head and said:
"No, I won't leave after I come back this time. For our Beiyan, I will stay in the palace and fight side by side with the emperor. I will never run away again."
Xia Houlie choked on his throat with a sip of wine, and couldn't recover for a long time, "Seriously? You're not tricking me, are you?"
Zhaohe picked up the jug and touched it with Xia Houlie. He blinked his peach blossom eyes and said, "Actually, I really didn't want to stay, but today someone told me, 'There is no way out after mountains and rivers, and there is a village with dark flowers and bright willows.
It is better to face it bravely than to just escape, so I was inspired by her and decided not to escape anymore."
Xia Houlie was surprised when he heard this and said, "Who is it? He helped me a lot. I have to thank him very much."
Showa chuckled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, you will know sooner or later."
Xia Houlie didn't go into details. Anyway, the most important thing was that his younger brother was finally back.
"Tonight I will host a banquet for envoys from various countries. Will you come?"
Zhaohe imagined Mu Qingwan's expression after knowing his true identity, and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "No, I'll go see the imperial grandmother."
Xia Houlie knew that he never liked such occasions, so he let him go without much persuasion.

Back at Changxin Palace, Biying and Mo Ge were waiting anxiously. When they saw her coming back, they asked her where she had gone.
Mu Qingwan responded with a faint "It's okay", walked to the inner room, and put the purple jade flute in the box. Although Zhaohe did not reveal his true identity today, a single man could appear so unscrupulously.
In the inner courtyard of the palace, it must be someone like the prince. Although she was happy that the two had made friends, she could not bring herself to blame for it.
Therefore, it is better to put this purple jade flute away.
Seeing her coming out, Mo Ge hurriedly took out the clothes and jewelry he had prepared to dress her up. Mu Qingwan looked at her and suddenly remembered something:
"Mo Ge, you have been with your mother for many years, but do you know which ministers in the court were executed by your father?"
She has been going to Piaomiao Peak since she was a child, and only returns to the palace to visit her father, the emperor, and her mother during festivals and festivals. She is not interested in court matters, so she knows nothing about it.
Mo Ge frowned and thought for a while, then said: "In the early years, Prime Minister Mo Li Mo gathered General Shangguan Rui to launch a rebellion. Later, the emperor discovered it early and ordered the Mo family and Shangguan family to be executed..."
There was a sound of "Bang——", and a crisp cracking sound suddenly sounded in the hall. The two of them followed the sound, and the powder box in Biying's hand fell to the ground, breaking into jade fragments of different sizes, and the powder inside was scattered.
There was a bright flower blooming on the floor.
At this moment, her face was pale, and while she was hurriedly picking up the fragments, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this slave deserves to die..."
