The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 132 Dongqing is injured

Mo Shaoxie and Shangguan Ziling sat in a spacious and comfortable carriage. As the wheels slowly rolled, they left Fengling County. The carriage was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which was in sharp contrast to the dusty smell outside.

The two sat side by side, each lost in thought. The chase last night seemed to be still before their eyes, and Wang Heqing's angry and helpless eyes were always lingering in their minds. However, what puzzled the two was that the news was spread so quickly.

"How did the news that Wang Heqing pursued us last night get out?" Shangguan Ziling spoke slowly while lying in Mo Shaoxie's arms. Her voice was full of doubts and revealed a hint of inquiry.

Mo Shaoxie frowned slightly when he heard this. He thought for a moment and then said, "The Chongshan Sect holds a very important position in the martial arts world. Any disturbance will attract attention. Moreover, last night's incident was such a big deal. Wang Heqing is the leader of the Chongshan Sect, so his whereabouts will naturally attract much attention."

"But..." Shangguan Ziling said thoughtfully, "Generally speaking, this kind of thing should be kept secret. After all, it involves the reputation and status of Chongshan Sect."

Mo Shaoxie nodded in agreement: "Indeed. It seems that the news leak this time was not accidental."

The two fell into deeper thinking. They knew that the underworld was full of complicated interpersonal relationships and conflicts of interest. The news leak this time might have been deliberately done by someone in order to disrupt their plans and pace.

A cold light flashed in Mo Shaoxie's eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "No matter who leaked the news, it is none of our business. I believe that there are people who don't like Chongshan Sect, or want to compete for the position of the leader of the martial arts world this time."

Shangguan Ziling yawned and said lazily: "It seems that the world is not peaceful anymore!"

Mo Shaoxie gently patted Shangguan Ziling's back and said softly: "Ling'er, don't worry about the things in the martial arts world. As long as I'm around, you should get some sleep. You didn't get any sleep last night."

"Yeah." Shangguan Ziling lay peacefully in Mo Shaoxie's arms, closed her eyes, and slowly her breathing calmed down.

Mo Shaoxie looked down at Shangguan Ziling who was sleeping peacefully in his arms. Her breathing was steady and gentle, like a spring breeze blowing through the flowers. Her face looked particularly peaceful and beautiful in the morning light, like a pure and flawless porcelain doll.

A warm feeling surged in Mo Shaoxie's heart. He gently stroked Shangguan Ziling's long hair, his eyes full of tenderness and affection.

"Mo Feng." Mo Shaoxie called Mo Feng's name in a low voice. Although his voice was not loud, it was loud enough for Mo Feng to hear.

Mo Feng immediately responded, "Master, what do you want?" His tone was respectful and serious, showing his loyalty and respect for Mo Shaoxie.

"Drive steadily," Mo Shaoxie instructed, "Don't let the carriage shake too much, so as not to disturb Ling'er's sleep."

Upon hearing this, Mo Feng immediately adjusted his driving style. He slowed down the carriage and tried to make the wheels roll smoothly over the uneven road surface. He remained alert at all times to ensure that the carriage drove smoothly and safely.

Shangguan Ziling felt as if she had slept for a century. When she slowly opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the soft light emitted by the night-shining pearls hanging in the carriage. This light cast a faint halo in the carriage, creating a quiet and warm atmosphere.

Shangguan Ziling looked over and asked, "Huh? Where is the evil Mo Shao?"

"Master, you have been sleeping all day and it's dark now." A crisp voice sounded in Shangguan Ziling's mind.

Shangguan Ziling was surprised and confused when she heard this. She subconsciously rubbed her sleepy eyes, trying to wake herself up.

"Ah, have I slept that long?" She murmured softly, and at this moment she smelled an alluring aroma of barbecue. The aroma spread throughout the carriage, arousing her appetite. She opened the carriage curtain, stuck her head out, and happened to meet Mo Shaoxie's eyes.

Mo Shaoxie stood outside the car, with a gentle smile on his face. His eyes sparkled with deep brilliance under the light of the night pearl, like the bright stars in the starry sky.

"I was just about to come in to wake Ling'er up, but I didn't expect Ling'er to wake up." He said with a smile, his voice full of pampering and care, "Are you hungry? The barbecue is ready."

"Yeah, I'm a little hungry." She replied softly.

Mo Shaoxie picked up Shangguan Ziling horizontally, his movements were light and steady, as if he was holding a fragile treasure. He got off the carriage, came to the blazing fire, and gently placed Shangguan Ziling on a soft blanket.

Shangguan Ziling looked around and found herself in a deep forest. The moonlight shone through the treetops onto the ground, creating mottled shadows. The sounds of insects chirping and leaves rustling in the distance added a touch of mystery and silence.

"Where are we?" Shangguan Ziling asked curiously.

Mo Shaoxie said softly, "We haven't left Fengling County yet." His tone was calm and composed, as if everything was under his control. He reached out and gently stroked Shangguan Ziling's long hair, his eyes full of tenderness and doting.

Shangguan Ziling nodded after hearing this.

The two sat quietly by the fire, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

Mo Shaoxie tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Shangguan Ziling. She took the rabbit leg and ate the barbecue in silence, her thoughts seeming to drift far away.

Mo Feng received a pigeon letter at this time. He took out the letter skillfully and glanced through it quickly, and his expression gradually became serious. He turned and walked to the opposite side of Mo Shaoxie, and respectfully reported: "Master, Mo Dian sent a message that Dong Qing was seriously injured."

Shangguan Ziling's face changed instantly when she heard this. She put down the rabbit leg in her hand, frowned, and her eyes showed worry and anxiety.

Dong Qing was her disguised identity, while Mo Dian was the person pretending to be Mo Shao Xie. In order to attract the assassins who came, they pretended to be them, but they didn't expect Dong Qing to be seriously injured.

Shangguan Ziling's expression also became solemn. She stood up and asked in a deep voice, "What is the specific situation? Is the injury serious?"

Mo Feng replied, "According to Mo Dian, Dong Qing was accidentally injured in the fierce battle with the assassin, and his injuries are quite serious. They are now in Beiqi County, recuperating in a farm. Doctor Xue said the situation is not optimistic."

Shangguan Ziling was very worried. She was silent for a moment, then said firmly: "We must rush over as soon as possible. I'll go and take a look."

Mo Shaoxie nodded in agreement. He immediately ordered Mo Feng to prepare the carriage and related matters, and prepared to go to where Dong Qing and the others were.
