2616 No Choice But to Compromise
The little one said this with melancholy, which promptly tugged at Mo Lian’s heartstrings.
“Qiaoqiao, you can’t bear for me to go.” Mo Lian’s mood immediately improved.
Look, his darling was getting more and more inseparable from him! This was very good.
He had thought that she was unhappy because she didn’t receive an invitation letter, but it turns out that a big part of it was because she couldn’t go together with him.
That was the case. If he went to Tempest City by himself, he would have to part from his wife.
This wasn’t good!
So forging an invitation letter was of utmost urgency!
Mo Lian lowered his head and kissed her puffy hair. “Don’t worry, Qiaoqiao. If you don’t go, I won’t go either. We make a whole as husband and wife. We advance and retreat together.”
When he didn’t get a response after a while, Mo Lian looked closely and couldn’t help but be amused and indignant.
This little fellow had actually closed her eyes and fell asleep in his arms.
When they returned to the Eastern Palace, he carried the little fellow back to their room. He wiped her hands and feet and then went to sleep while cuddling her.
That entire night, Qiaoqiao was dreaming a sweet dream of the victor.
It wasn’t until the next morning when she opened her eyes that she felt confused and baffled.
What happened?
She kept seeing herself chase after Mo Lian and Duan Yue to beat them up in her dreams?
She had beat them up until they were on the ground begging for mercy, calling her queen…
Qiao Mu was at a loss for words.
She actually possessed such abominable violent genes in her blood?
Impossible (⊙…⊙)
Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes and sat up on the bed, continuing to daydream.
Hence, Caixiu saw her little master just sitting there daydreaming when she walked inside. The latter’s expression was rather comical.
Caixiu couldn’t help but say with a smile, “Crown Prince Consort, you have woken up?”
“Mhm.” Qiao Mu hopped off the bed. After washing up, she asked, “Ah, I fell asleep yesterday. Call over Eunuch Chen so I can ask him questions.”
After a while, Eunuch Chen ran over with a junior eunuch in tow.
“Greetings to the crown prince consort.”
“Rise, rise.” Qiao Mu waved her hand and ran up them. “Eunuch Chen, how was debt collecting yesterday?”
“It went extremely smoothly. This servant followed the crown prince consort’s instructions and requested Sir Huifeng to also send along his men to the Mu Clan.”
“That Mu Clan had already prepared the resources outside the door. We only needed to verify and load them onto the carriages.”
“That batch of resources has already been unloaded at the entrance to the storeroom. The crown prince consort needs to inspect, after all.”
Qiao Mu shook her head. “Go help me call Huifeng over.”
Eunuch Chen received his order with a nod and went out.
After a while, Huifeng walked inside and saluted Qiao Mu with a grin. “Crown Prince Consort, what instructions do you have for this humble one?”
Qiao Mu looked at him and said, “Huifeng, you will take charge of those resources collected from the Mu Clan. Distribute them to your men.”
Huifeng was stunned. Afterwards, he asked excitedly, “Ah? Yes, yes, Crown Prince Consort. Huifeng will immediately go attend to this.”
Qiao Mu yawned as she watched Huifeng leave excitedly. She then told Caixiu, “If people from the Mu Clan come these two days, I won’t be seeing any of them.”
“Yes!”

The Mu Clan, in Liujin Court.
Mu Jingfeng had on a taut expression as he stared at Mu Qingya next to him. He heaved a long sigh and said, “You do not need to do this.”
Mu Qingya shook her head and said resolutely, “Family Head, as a part of the Mu Clan, this is also what I must do.”
“This wife will always remember my lord’s intentions to give consideration to my esteem.” Mu Qingya smiled lightly. “But for the sake of the Mu Clan, what can this bit of esteem be considered?”
