"How about you call them over again and have another fight?"
Nangong Jue: "..."
Beside them, Yun Ran silently looked up at the sky. The bright moon hung high, and the stars were dazzling, with nebulae floating like smoke and mist in the deep night sky, free and uninhibited.
[Hmm, the night is beautiful! Perfect for a little robbery and making so money!]
Nangong Jue tugged at his slightly stiff lips and chuckled lightly, "The Ninth Prince can really joke! The hunting ground is a place for horse riding and archery competitions, how can you gather people to fight?"
"Today’s antics were already nonsense. We are bound to be reprimanded by Father when we return to the capital; How can we make the sa mistake again?"
Nangong Mo looked indifferent, glancing at him sideways with a sneer, "Weren’t you the one chasing explanations?"
Nangong Jue: "..."
I do need an explanation, but is this the kind of explanation I want?
Sighing lightly, the Crown Prince spoke calmly, "Right now the generals are all discussing your arrogance, your reckless and domineering disregard for the law. Don’t you want to quell these rumors?"
Nangong Mo scoffed disdainfully, his voice lazy, "They still dare to spread rumors? Clearly they weren’t beaten hard enough."
Nangong Jue: "..."
So, he thought having another fight would an beating them until they’re too hurt to speak?
He pressed his lips together and glanced at him with a bit of disappointnt, "I know you probably don’t care about your own reputation. But don’t you think about Wanyue?"
Nangong Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at Yun Ran without a trace.
Wanyue? So familiar!
Yun Ran felt a chilly gaze land on her and couldn’t help but glare back.
[What is this annoying man doing now? How did I provoke him again? What’s with all these petty emotions in a grown man?]
Nangong Jue watched as the two communicated with (secret) eye (looks) and (under)current (waves), his gaze flickered slightly yet he maintained a calm deanor.
"Ninth Prince, do you know what people might say about Wanyue? They’ll call her a seductress of princes, a fem fatale, a enchantress bringing chaos."
Yun Ran: "..."
[You are the fem fatale! Your whole family is fems fatales! Not only are you a temptress, you’re also a demon, a beast, a fiend!]
Nangong Mo slightly squinted his eyes, glancing at Nangong Jue with a cold sneer, "Whoever dares say it, I’ll kill them."
Nangong Jue frowned, his tone sowhat serious, "Ninth Prince, if you truly do this, it will only confirm her reputation as an enchantress causing chaos."
Yun Ran silently rolled her eyes in her heart:
[What the heck is he saying now?!]
[With my chivalrous, sunny, kind-hearted, helpful nature, how could I be a fem fatale?]
[Even if I were, who dares say? Poison them mute and send them to dig wells, mine, or rebuild the Great Wall!]
[Besides, what fem fatale? It’s all just n’s bla! They push all the bla and sin onto won but never admit their own lust and incompetence!]
"Crown Prince, it’s getting late, you should go rest! Overworking leads to early aging, ugliness, and clumsiness. You, as the crown prince, should take care of your body."
Yun Ran finished in one breath, smiling warmly at the Crown Prince, full of tenderness, friendliness, and concern.
The Crown Prince’s lips stiffened slightly, but he forced a gentle smile, his voice soft, "Wanyue is right, it’s late, I won’t disturb you, get so rest."
"Farewell, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Yun Ran bowed slightly and kindly escorted him to the door, even watching him until he disappeared from sight.
"Yun Xiaoran, are you pretending I’m not here? Or pretending I’m blind?"
Suddenly, a ghostly, chilled low voice drifted from behind, like a wisp of spirit entering the ear, freezing the heart.
Yun Ran turned and t those eyes, as deep as ancient cold springs, involuntarily twitching her lips, "Can’t you keep pretending to be blind? Who are you trying to scare with those scary eyes?"
Nangong Mo was very good at catching key points.
"Blind?"
"You really hope I’m blind, don’t you?"
"So you can openly spy on other n without worrying about being caught by , right?"
Yun Ran: "......"
[You’re the crazy one! Twisting words, recklessly slandering with impunity, you damned man!]
"When did I spy on other n? I was just making sure he left, wasn’t I?"
She’s not blind, of course she’d glance, wouldn’t she?
