Marrying a concubine to seduce him and lure him into the game

Chapter 144 Obey

Su Rao took out the brush and ink, and lightly touched the rice paper with her fingertips. Every stroke was filled with unspoken words.

Xin Cheng, she carefully handed it to Su Yi, with a trace of worry in her eyes: "Sister, be careful when you see him, don't let outsiders know our intentions."

Su Yi nodded gently, with a firm look between his brows: "Don't worry, I will handle this matter carefully."

She put the letter away carefully and her figure disappeared around the corner of the palace wall. She did not go directly to Xu's house, but chose a loyal and reliable messenger to quietly deliver the letter.

……

In the quiet courtyard of the Xu family, Fang Mo was alone, facing the bronze mirror, carefully treating the wound on his shoulder.

The face that usually appeared stern and resolute now looked unusually pale. The sharp lines seemed to have softened a bit, and the sharpness was restrained, revealing a rare fragility.

Just then, a light and rapid knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

"Who?" Although Fang Mo's voice was cold, it couldn't hide a hint of fatigue.

"Brother, it's me." Fang Yuan's familiar and slightly nervous voice came from outside the door.

Hearing that it was his younger brother, Fang Mo's eyes softened. He quickly put on a coat and opened the door.

Fang Yuan walked into the house and closed the door behind her. When their eyes met, she was filled with worry and concern for her brother.

"Brother..." Fang Yuan pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "The young master of the Wang family, is it really you..."

Her voice was as thin as a mosquito's, revealing her inner anxiety and struggle.

These days, the Wang family is furious about the death of the young master and vows to bring the murderer to justice.

At first, Fang Yuan secretly felt lucky that she would not have to step into that wolf-like palace again.

But soon, she noticed that something was wrong with her brother, and the weight of her heart dropped again.

"Brother, you did it for me..." Fang Yuan stared at Fang Mo's face, which looked even more haggard due to days of hard work, and choked up, "You shouldn't have done this."

She knew very well that once she became a member of the palace, endless suffering and pain would be waiting for her, but her brother's future became even more precarious because of her.

Rather than letting the two of them drift in the tide of fate, it would be better...

"Ayi, don't say that, you are my only relative." Fang Mo's words were firm, but his eyes were full of tenderness and care.

He heard how the playboy in the palace used her as a topic of conversation and even encouraged others to bully her. She was the softest part of his heart. At that moment, his anger and desire to protect her could no longer be tolerated.

Mrs. Huo treated him like a piece of trash and manipulated him at will, making him live in endless pain and despair and lose everything precious.

At that moment, getting rid of the dandy young man in the palace seemed to be his only choice, and he never regretted it at all.

However, he was afraid that his decision would cause his sister to suffer undue pain.

"Brother, what are your plans next?" Fang Yuan asked softly, with anxiety flashing in her eyes.

Fang Mo pursed his lips and did not answer immediately.

Suddenly, he looked out the window alertly and heard a few light knocks on the window frame.

He walked quickly forward and opened the curtains. There was no one outside, only a piece of paper lying quietly on the windowsill.

He picked up the note and slowly unfolded it. He saw the crooked handwriting on it, which seemed to be written by his left hand. It read: "Leave Beijing to avoid the limelight. We will meet again in the future and the grudges will be avenged."

The handwriting was deliberately distorted, apparently to prevent people from recognizing it and exposing the identity.

This person's style of doing things is extremely cautious.

A figure emerged in Fang Mo's mind, and he unconsciously clenched the note in his hand.

This coincided with his plan, to stay away from the capital, wait for the opportunity, and meet again in the future...

She has such deep thoughts. Does she want him to preserve his strength and use it for her in the future?

As for hatred, he was a little confused at the moment. Who was the real enemy?

If it was Prince Yi, his life or death is uncertain now, and he is in great danger. It seems that he has received the retribution he deserves.

But if it was someone else...

Then, he must have the determination and perseverance to move mountains and fill the sea.

Fang Mo pondered for a moment and whispered to the note: "See you someday..."

……

So Fang Mo quickly packed his bags and took Fang Yuan with him, preparing to escape from this place of trouble.

He used the Jinyiwei's superb disguise skills to disguise himself beyond all recognition, making it difficult even for people who knew him to recognize him.

The two quietly came to the south gate of the capital, planning to go south and find a secluded forest to avoid the limelight for a while, wait for the opportunity, and slowly make a comeback...

At the city gate, the guards were checking passers-by as usual. Just as they were about to let them pass, the sound of hurried horse hooves broke the silence.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black horse galloping towards them, causing a burst of surprise.

"It's the Jinyiwei!" someone exclaimed.

"Are the Jinyiwei going to leave the city too?" Doubts and speculations spread among the crowd.

Fang Yuan subconsciously grabbed Fang Mo's sleeve, her nervousness evident in words.

Fang Mo had a blank expression on his face, but his eyes were deep.

In a flash, the team of Jinyiwei arrived at the city gate. The leader was the one who had fought with Fang Mo last night. He scanned the crowd with sharp eyes.

"Please cooperate with us in arresting this notorious bandit." His words were cold and hard.

"A bandit? How should we cooperate?" The people breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they were not implicated. However, they seemed a little confused about how to help catch the thief.

"I fought with the thief last night and left a scar on his shoulder. All men must bare their upper bodies and be inspected," he ordered.

The so-called bandit is just a cover. The real purpose is to find the person who rescued Su Rao.

Su Rao was protected by the eldest princess, so Mrs. Huo and Mrs. Wang were at a loss as to what to do, so they turned their attention to Su Rao's "companions".

Fang Yuan's gaze involuntarily fell on Fang Mo's shoulder, where traces of last night's fight were hidden.

A hint of coldness flashed in Fang Mo's lowered eyes.

At the command of the Jinyiwei, the crowd had to obey.

The women quietly stepped aside and turned their backs, while the men began to unbutton their shirts. The scene seemed a little chaotic for a moment.

The Jinyiwei checked one by one, and soon it was Fang Mo's turn.

"Why don't you do it?" A Jinyiwei asked Fang Mo harshly, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.

Fang Mo seemed to be unbuttoning his clothes with one hand, but his other hand quietly slid towards the short blade at his waist, ready to deal with possible emergencies.

At this tense moment, the leading Jinyiwei suddenly said: "I'll handle it."

The others immediately stepped aside.

He walked forward slowly, and after a brief eye contact with Fang Mo, he suddenly reached out and tore open Fang Mo's clothes, took a quick look, and quickly pulled them back.

"Not the target!" he announced loudly, with a hint of surprise in his tone.

Everyone immediately shifted their attention to Fang Mo, and those eyes that were originally fixed on him quietly retreated.
