Chapter 153: Voice under the Moon, Yun Mohan's Thoughts
Late at night, the two children were tired from playing and had already fallen asleep. Yun Mohan covered them with blankets and stood by the window.
The moonlight sprinkled on him like water, and his expression seemed a little lonely in the moonlight.
Using the sound transmission method, he sent the words of longing to Xing Xuanli's mind: "Li'er, when will you come back? The child and I miss you."
After hearing Yun Mohan's voice transmission, Xing Xuanli smiled and said, "It's almost there, I miss you guys too."
Yun Mohan was delighted, as if this brief response gave him endless strength and hope.
The corners of his mouth rose, and he said softly: "Then I'll wait for you."
On the other side, Xing Xuanli had a warm smile on her face and quickened her pace of investigation. She knew that someone at home was eagerly waiting for her return.
It was late at night, and everything was silent. The whole world seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. Yun Mohan quietly left the children's room and returned to his study.
The flickering candlelight illuminated his slightly tired face. He sat at his desk, picked up a military book, but couldn't concentrate. All he could think of was Xing Xuanli's figure and her words, "It's almost there, almost there."
Outside the window, the occasional chirping of insects added a touch of silence. Yun Mohan put down his military book, stood up, and walked to the window. He looked at the dark night sky and silently prayed for Xing Xuanli's safe return soon.
In the distance, Xing Xuanli also quickened her pace in the deep night. Moonlight cast a long shadow over her. Her gaze was determined, her heart filled with longing for her family and anticipation for their upcoming reunion.
Meanwhile, in the other side of the mansion, the Prime Minister's Residence, in Ye Yingshang's study, a subordinate came back to report. "Your Majesty, a mysterious person visited Duanmu Mansion at night.
Ye Yingshang narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "Continue to investigate and make sure to find out the relationship."
"Yes!" The subordinate responded and retreated quickly.
Ye Yingshang paced back and forth in the study, thinking about the possible impact of this news.
The next morning, the sun shone through the thin clouds and fell on the earth.
At the Duanmu Mansion, Xing Xuanli got up early to wash up. She was wearing a light blue dress, her long hair cascading down behind her like a waterfall. Looking out the window, she was filled with joy at the prospect of returning home.
In the Prince Regent's Mansion, Yun Mohan also got up early. He went to the children's room and gently woke up Xiao Muhan and Xiao Kexin who were still sleeping soundly.
"Xiao Kexin, Xiao Muhan, the sun is shining on your butts, get up quickly." Yun Mohan's voice was gentle and loving.
Little Mu Han turned over and said drowsily, "Daddy, let me sleep a little longer."
Yun Mohan smiled and shook his head, then patted his little face gently: "Be good, get up, there might be a surprise today."
When Xiao Kexin heard there was a surprise, she opened her eyes and asked curiously, "Daddy, what's the surprise?"
Yun Mohan smiled mysteriously: "You will know in a moment."
Yun Mohan smiled mysteriously: "You will know in a moment."
Xiao Muhan and Xiao Kexin looked at each other, and quickly got up and washed up with curiosity.
Yun Mohan looked at the two children who were impatient and felt warm in his heart.
The servants in the mansion also began to get busy, preparing breakfast and the day's affairs. The sun shone on the courtyard, and everything seemed so peaceful and beautiful.
Just then, a male voice rang out, "Two little darlings, do you miss your uncle?" Xiao Kexin and Xiao Muhan looked over, "Uncle Gu!"
Gu Beichen strode over and held the two children in his arms, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have grown a lot."
Little Mu Han giggled, "Uncle Gu, what fun things did you bring us this time?"
Gu Beichen scratched his little nose and said, "Little clever boy, you're just thinking about having fun."
Little Kexin blinked her big eyes, "Uncle Gu, Daddy said there's a surprise, do you know what it is?"
Gu Beichen looked at Yun Mohan and deliberately kept him in suspense, "I don't know, let's wait and see."
Gu Beichen nodded slightly to Yun Mohan and said, "Third brother,"
Yun Mohan smiled slightly, "You're here."
Gu Beichen looked at the two children and asked, "Little naughty boys, are you being obedient?"
Little Mu Han patted his chest and said, "Uncle Gu, we are so good!"
Gu Beichen laughed, "That's good, otherwise I would have to teach you a lesson on behalf of your father."
Xiao Kexin pulled Gu Beichen's clothes and said, "Uncle Gu, don't scare us."
Everyone smiled, and the atmosphere was warm and cheerful.
Yun Mohan and Gu Beichen went to the study. Yun Mohan asked, "What has Nangong Li done recently in the Nangong family? Is Grandpa okay?"
Gu Beichen looked a little worried. "Third brother, Nangong Li has been making small moves recently and has been secretly winning over many forces. As for Grandpa, he's still in good health, but he's quite worried about the disputes within the family."
Yun Mohan clenched his fists. "This Nangong Li will have to pay the price sooner or later. Send more people to look after Grandpa."
Gu Beichen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Third Brother, I have made all the arrangements. However, the situation is becoming increasingly complicated, so we must be even more cautious."
Yun Mohan walked to the window and looked into the distance. "No matter what, we must protect the Yun family."
The study was filled with tension, and a storm seemed to be brewing.
At this moment, Xiao Kexin ran over and said, "Daddy, I'm hungry."
The solemnity on Yun Mohan's face instantly dissipated, replaced by a gentle smile, "Xin'er, be good. Daddy will take you to dinner right away."
Gu Beichen also smiled and said, "Little greedy cat, you only know how to eat."
Xiao Kexin pouted, "Uncle Gu is mean, I'm really hungry."
Yun Mohan took Xiao Kexin's hand and said, "Let's go and eat."
Xing Xuanli sat in the pavilion, lost in thought, her gaze vacantly fixed on the lake. A gentle breeze ruffled her hair, but failed to disrupt her thoughts.
Perhaps she was recalling every detail of her acquaintance with Yun Mohan, or perhaps she was worried about the safety of her children. Her expression sometimes shifted from worry to a faint smile, as if she were experiencing a storm of emotions.
After an unknown amount of time, a butterfly fluttered over and landed on the flowers beside her, which brought her back to her senses slightly, but her eyes were still filled with confusion and contemplation.
Duanmu Jin refused to tell her about her mother. Was there some hidden conspiracy? And where did her mother come from? Why did he look for her mother in the first place regarding the incident with the blue hair? Was her mother related to them? Xing Xuanli pondered in her heart,
She turned to look at Lan Zhu and Zhao Yun beside her, "Do you know what happened to Mother?"
Lan Zhu shuddered slightly, her eyes evasive, "Miss, we...we're not sure."
Xing Xuanli snorted coldly, "Seriously? You've been with me since you were little. What could you possibly hide from me? If you tell even a single lie, I'll tear your skin off!"
Lan Zhu was so frightened that she fell to her knees with a plop. "Please spare me, young lady. It's not that I don't want to tell you, but this matter has so many implications that I'm afraid of causing trouble for you."
Xing Xuanli's eyes were like torches. "I'm not afraid of trouble, just tell me."
Lan Zhu bit her lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Miss, it is said that the lady's life story is extremely mysterious, and seems to be related to a reclusive family."
