Chapter 122 Who is the Traitor?



Chapter 122 Who is the Traitor?

Xia Yanxiang lowered her eyebrows, her eyelids trembled, there was a hot touch on her lips, and her heart was also hot. She moved her body and faced Mo Fuchen. She grabbed the table behind her with one hand and quietly grabbed the corner of Mo Fuchen's clothes with the other hand. She tilted her head up and touched Mo Fuchen intentionally or unintentionally.

Mo Yuchen was a little surprised. Before he could react, he heard Xia Yanxiang say, "Even if there is no stamp, I may not be someone else's."

Mo Yuchen's heart trembled, and he lowered his head and kissed her.

After a few breaths, Mo Yuchen was willing to let go: "No, it must be mine."

Xia Yanxiang's face really turned red. She lowered her eyelids, not daring to look at Mo Yuchen again. She pursed her lips gently and said, "If you say so, then so be it."

Every word that came out of that cherry-like mouth struck Mo Yuchen's heart, making him unable to help but want to take action again.

Seeing Mo Yuchen's attitude, Xia Yanxiang quickly stopped him and said, "You, what on earth did you bring?"

Mo Yuchen then stopped what he was doing, but without letting her go, he turned her around and looked at the things on the table: "Open it and take a look."

Xia Yanxiang reached out and untied the bundle, revealing an ebony box. When she opened it, she saw a jade pendant inside.

"Seeing this jade pendant is like seeing me in person. Wear it and no one will let you suffer any injustice."

Xia Yanxiang took it out and played with it: "If I don't have this, I won't suffer at the hands of others. This jade pendant is not that simple, right?"

Mo Yuchen laughed softly, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Yanyan. With it, I can mobilize the manpower and financial resources of Prince Luo's Mansion at will, and I can also check the accounts and property in the treasury."

Xia Yanxiang guessed that this jade pendant was not simple, but she didn't expect it to be so important: "How dare you give such an important thing to someone else?"

"How can it be a casual gift? If it weren't for your noble status, how could I have given you this jade pendant?" Mo Yuchen has always trusted Xia Yanxiang wholeheartedly. Although he is cunning and treacherous, he still has a heart that has not cooled down. The excitement of life will not stop easily, and his love and respect for the country will never dissipate.

After hearing his words, Xia Yanxiang fell into deep thought.

Seeing that she was thinking, Mo Yuchen did not disturb her. He opened the secret compartment in the box and took out a hairpin. On top was a gorgeous white orchid that seemed to be half-opened, with a drop of morning dew hanging from the end. Below it were two crystal clear pendants. The milky white color exuded a gentle breath. It was elegant, simple, and luxurious.

Mo Yuchen leaned back slightly, took a look, then leaned over and gently inserted it into Xia Yanxiang.

Mo Yuchen flicked it, and the two pendants collided lightly, making an ethereal sound, which brought Xia Yanxiang back to her senses.

"Sure enough, only white jasmine can match Yanyan." Mo Yuchen was very satisfied.

Xia Yanxiang didn't care about this. She frowned and asked Mo Yuchen, "How many people know the function of this jade pendant?"

Xia Yanxiang looked nervous, and Mo Yuchen also became serious: "What's wrong? Apart from me, few people should know."

Xia Yanxiang frowned even more tightly and said nothing. Mo Yuchen stretched out his warm big hand to try to smooth her frown and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Xia Yanxiang vaguely remembered that in his previous life, Mo Fuyang had obtained something important, but she didn't know what it was. Later, Mo Fuchen was punished and went to the battlefield to make amends for his crime.

Xia Yanxiang closed her eyes and thought carefully.

Could it be Jin Luanjiao? In her previous life, she successfully got pregnant. Although it would take two or three months for the baby to be born, the emperor made her the concubine of Prince Luo. It seemed that Mo Yuyang had known about the jade pendant in Mo Yuchen's hand for a long time.

"Nothing, I'm afraid someone is coveting your jade pendant, so you better be careful."

Mo Yuchen frowned: "Could it be Mo Yuyang?"

"I'm afraid that Aunt Jin's staying in your house is not just to discredit you." Xia Yanxiang opened her eyes, still a little confused, "But you don't trust Aunt Jin at all, how did she get this jade pendant?"

"There is a traitor around you." Xia Yanxiang said with certainty, "Aunt Jin can't get close to you. I think there is another person lurking around you."

"Who else do you often use besides Yizhu?" Xia Yanxiang immediately overturned this idea. Mo Yuchen always used Yizhu no matter what he did. There was no one else. "No, who is coming back?"

Mo Yuchen was still trying to smooth Xia Yanxiang's frown: "Most of my subordinates are coming back soon. There are four of them. I have used them for many years. They have clean backgrounds. How can I check them?"

Xia Yanxiang thought about it and suddenly relaxed her brows: "It's easy. Since you have given me this jade pendant, let me keep it for the time being. Then let them know. Whoever attacks me will be the traitor."

"No, the four of them are cautious and all of them are highly skilled in martial arts, so they are not easy to deal with. Otherwise, the jade pendant should be kept with me. If I know there is a traitor, I will naturally be more vigilant." Mo Yuchen rejected it immediately. He would never take risks with Yanyan.

"This time, Aunt Jin was exposed in advance. That person has no cover and will not act easily. Moreover, the Luowang Mansion is calm and peaceful. How can he fish in troubled waters? It is better to leave it with me. It is easy to break through and naturally lure it out."

Xia Yanxiang remained calm and smiled lightly, revealing a hint of cynicism.

Mo Yuchen still wanted to refuse, saying this method was too risky, but Xia Yanxiang said, "I don't have anything else here, but I have a lot of poisons. I'm just worried about where to try them. You should worry about them."

Mo Yuchen reluctantly agreed, but he was still worried: "Otherwise I'll send a maidservant to you."

"Don't worry, Yukui is here!"

After finishing his business, Mo Yuchen saw the swaying hairpin again and reached out to touch it, making an ethereal sound. Xia Yanxiang then noticed: "I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Prince Luo would do such a small thing."

"Yes, I made it for Princess Luo myself! I have only made it for two people in my life, Princess Luo, please don't despise my craftsmanship.

Mo Yuchen's ambiguous words gently tickled Xia Yanxiang.

Xia Yanxiang was not fooled by him and exposed him directly: "I guess His Royal Highness Prince Luo was disliked by Imperial Noble Consort Xianchen? Don't worry, Princess Luo will still give her this little bit of face."

Mo Yuchen was not annoyed when he saw her making fun of him, and reached out to touch Xia Yanxiang's face.

夏妍香盖得红透了脸,一把推开他:“给我老实些!否则我便叫哥哥过来了,你看他揍不揍你。他尤其见不得你那一后院的小妾姨娘,巴不得以此为借口不与你结亲,你竟还敢偷摸到我们府上来败坏我的名节!”

Mo Yuchen was humiliated. The last time his uncle went to his house, he gave him a good beating and warned him to get rid of all the beauties in that yard as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, Yanyan. If it weren't for the end of the year these days, the concubines in that courtyard would have been sent away long ago." Mo Yuchen had been holding it in for so long, and finally he could take action.

Xia Yanxiang didn't care about that. As long as they didn't cause her any trouble, it didn't matter. "Just do whatever you want. Just don't cause any more trouble."
