Chapter 77 Goal
Su Yue could only see two people facing each other in the dense crowd from afar, and she couldn't understand what they were saying at all.
However, judging from this, the two seem to have a good relationship; at least they didn't fight.
Su Yue could only see, not hear, which made her anxious and want to get closer.
Just as he was about to fly to the rooftop closest to the two people, Mo Liu, who had arrived at the scene, grabbed him.
"You can't go over there, you can only watch from here. Be good, listen to me, it's very dangerous there." Mo Liu was truly terrified just now. This fourth prince was the most ruthless of all the princes. If he found out that Su Yue was the little fairy invited by the master, he would definitely try every means to get rid of the little fairy.
He would rather destroy what he cannot have.
If the Second Prince hadn't been his half-brother, he would have poisoned the Second Prince long ago.
The reason they didn't kill him was because the Second Prince had repeatedly expressed his lack of interest in that position.
This was the first time Su Yue had heard Mo Liu coax someone like this, and she found it quite strange. "I'll just take a look, I'm not going over. Do you think the Fourth Prince is planning a coup?"
"I don't know, but you can't go there anyway." Mo Liu resumed his serious demeanor.
"Okay, okay, I won't go there. Is it alright if I go somewhere else?"
If they won't let me listen to them talk, then I'll go to the palace to take a look, okay? She just checked the city wall and knows she can fly over it, but she doesn't know if there's anything on the city wall.
I don't think so. Otherwise, with so many people gathered outside the city gate, they would have already started a protest on the city wall. But I haven't seen a single person.
If we don't fly in and take a look now, when will we?
While Mo Liu was focused on the city gate, Su Yue quietly moved away from him and then used her inner energy to fly directly onto the city wall.
By the time Mo Liu realized what was happening, it was too late, and he had no choice but to follow them.
Both of them used their lightness skills to fly into the palace like two nimble swallows.
Their figures flashed by in the moonlight, like ghosts.
They raced across the palace rooftops, one after the other, evading the patrolling guards. The palace buildings were magnificent and resplendent in gold; as they traversed the rooftops, one couldn't help but marvel at their extravagance.
This stands in stark contrast to the widespread famine outside.
This old emperor was a scoundrel while he was alive, and he was even more so after he died.
Having just experienced famine, they are now facing war; misfortunes never come singly.
Suddenly, Su Yue spotted a target. She gave Mo Liu a wink and then quietly landed on the roof of a palace.
The palace was brightly lit. Su Yue lay on the roof, peeling away the thick layer of snow to see the scene inside through the lifted tiles.
Su Yue no longer found it offensive; she even wanted to grab a handful of sunflower seeds and crack them open.
Because inside, it was rumored that the Fifth Prince was fighting with a female demon.
Oh dear, the enemy is practically breaking in, and the Fifth Prince still has the mood to cause trouble.
Just as Su Yue was about to pry open another tile, Mo Liu, who had rushed over, covered her eyes with one hand and tucked her under his arm with the other, pulling her away from that spot.
Even though Su Yue was strong, she couldn't move or make a sound when she was trapped under someone's armpits.
They were afraid of attracting the attention of the Imperial Guards, who might then try to pin the blame for the old emperor's death on them.
Mo Liu finally put Su Yue down after finding a secluded spot. He had thought Su Yue was lying there looking at something, but when he saw what was inside, he really wanted to kill the person inside, because it was an eyesore for the little girl.
And this little girl too, she's curious about everything good, she was almost corrupted by those two.
He almost made Mo Liu furious, and then he flicked Su Yue's forehead.
Su Yue was in so much pain that her eyes almost popped out. Had Mo Liu gone mad?
Just as I was about to fight back, I realized I was too short.
"You, you dare to hit me...you've got some nerve, kid."
“Hitting you is too lenient. You little brat, you have no shame at all. What are you, a young girl, looking at those things for?” Mo Liu said angrily.
Su Yue rubbed her head, muttering, "I was just looking around... Besides, who told you to cover my eyes? I didn't even see clearly!"
Mo Liu looked helpless, thinking that this little girl didn't understand anything yet. He sighed and decided it was best to change the subject, so he asked, "What do we do next?"
Su Yue came in just to take a look around, but it seems the old emperor has already passed away!
Don't TV dramas always say that the emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem, and the rest are eunuchs?
But what was that person doing? Was he secretly sleeping with the emperor's woman?
Why am I so excited? I really want to go back and see it again.
But looking back at Mo Liu's serious expression, she decided to give up.
"Did you see clearly who was inside just now? Didn't they say the old emperor had passed away?" Su Yue asked softly.
Mo Liu had only glanced at it casually, and roughly saw two people entangled together. Afraid of getting a sty, he didn't actually see who they were.
However, judging from the location of the house, it must belong to either the Fifth Prince or the Ninth Prince.
"You've come in, you've seen it all, and you've come back, haven't you?" Mo Liu lowered his voice.
Su Yue was not about to leave just like that. She hadn't even gone to check out the national treasury yet, but it should be heavily guarded and difficult to get close to!
Anyway, the world is bound to be in chaos sooner or later. There must be a lot of good stuff in this palace. She doesn't want to go out now. She wants to lie low until the fighting starts, and then take advantage of the chaos.
Then, hehe, everything in this palace will be mine.
Su Yue thought about it more and more and felt it was a good idea, and almost burst out laughing.
"I'm not leaving. If you want to leave, go ahead." Su Yue turned her head and tried to run away again.
Mo Liu quickly grabbed Su Yue and whispered, "Don't run around, it's dangerous here."
Su Yue's lightness skill was already quite impressive, so escaping wasn't a problem. "Danger? I'm not afraid at all." Her eyes darted around, and an idea came to her. "How about we go find out where the national treasury is? I've never seen it before. After we see it, I'll go back with you."
Mo Liu shook his head. "No, we can't take the risk. If we're discovered by the patrolling Imperial Guards, we're doomed."
"Oh dear, why are you so timid?" Su Yue pouted, crossing her arms. "We can just be more careful."
Mo Liu wanted to persuade her again, but Su Yue was like a spoiled child demanding candy; if she wasn't given it, she looked like she might cry at any moment.
He sighed helplessly. The two of them hid and evaded their way through the palace, finally arriving at a grand hall. Su Yue excitedly whispered to Mo Liu, pointing to the palace, "Is this the national treasury?"
Mo Liu explained to Su Yue, "The national treasury is generally set up in two ways. One is set up specifically for the emperor, to highlight the emperor's noble status; the other is the national treasury we know, set up for all the people. This is the emperor's small country. See? Can we go back now?"
