Chapter 624: The Space Detoxification Horror Upgrade (1)_1
Mo Yan didn’t want to draw a crowd, so taking advantage of the predawn darkness, she hastened home on horseback under the escort of a hundred guards and soon reached the border of Liu Yang Village.
At this moment, the eastern horizon was just revealing a pale streak of dawn, and the entire Liu Yang Village was still immersed in a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. There were no villagers to be seen up early on the road, and since the Mo Family resided alone by the hillside, it wouldn’t disturb the neighbors. Otherwise, if someone saw such a commotion, the Mo Family might have a hard time keeping it quiet for a while.
Seeing that the front gate was firmly closed, Mo Yan knew that no one in the family had gotten up yet. She could have quietly returned to her own courtyard and kept the previous night’s actions a secret, but looking back at the guards behind her, she felt it was not right to have them make the trip without even offering a sip of water, so she resigned herself to moving forward and rang the bell pull at her own courtyard gate.
The clanging of the bell woke Lixiu’s nephew, who was still asleep. Lixiu told her niece to continue sleeping while she herself got up, getting dressed and wondering who was knocking so early in the morning. As she came out to open the door, she saw Mo Yan with an embarrassed smile and the imposing guards behind her.
Mo Qingze got the message and hurriedly tidied himself before rushing to the front hall to entertain the royal guards. Taking advantage of pouring tea in the kitchen, he glared fiercely at Mo Yan, who was sitting in front of the stove pretending to be dead, deciding to deal with this careless daughter after the guests had left.
Although the tea provided by the Mo Family was sweet and the meat buns especially delicious, which made a good impression on the guards, they still had to return to report and dared not stay too long. After eating and drinking their fill, they politely took their leave amidst the cordial entreaties of Mo Qingze, the family head.
