Chapter 987 Speak to Be Heard

eng Ming twitched his mouth and said leisurely:"Can you at least acknowledge our current situation and show some respect for these assassins"An Xuetang and Ninger looked at each other, both of them sm...An Xuetang didn't hesitate. She got up and asked Ning'er to get her a slightly thinner cloak, then took Ning'er to the reception hall of the Prince's Mansion.

Since Fengming fell, she only took Ning'er with her when she went out, while Shou'er and Kang'er were asked by her to stay in Fengming's room.

Now Feng Ming is unconscious, and he has many enemies. If someone wanted to harm him now, it would be very easy for him to get hurt.

So An Xue Tang had to have someone guard him, she wouldn't allow Feng Ming to get into trouble.

……

When An Xue Tang and Ning'er reached the doorway to the living room, they both instinctively glanced at each other after hearing the sounds coming from inside.

Apparently, no one expected this guest to be Master Jinchuan Temple's alms-giver, whom they hadn't seen in many days.

An Xuetang's eyes narrowed slightly. She had a deep impression of this beggar, not because of anything else, but because he had spoken about part of the story of Mo Yunjing's mother.

Although this part of the story cannot be verified as true or false, it did not prevent her from feeling wary of him.

An Xuetang suppressed the complex emotions in her eyes and then slowly walked inside.

Seeing An Xue Tang come over, Mo Yun Jing got up and walked towards her, naturally taking her cool little hand. The two sat back at their main seats together.

Huai Yuan also rose to her feet and bowed to An Xue Tang.

An Xuetang curled her lips into a gentle smile towards him. "We're all familiar faces, Master Hui Yuan need not be so polite. Let's sit and chat."

Hua Yuan didn't bother with formalities and the three of them sat down. Ning'er stood beside An Xue Tang.

Mo Yunjing first personally poured a cup of hot water for An Xuetang, letting her warm up first.

Huayuan saw all of this with his own eyes, a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth. "The love between King Beijang and Queen Beijang is truly enviable."

Upon hearing this, An Xuetang paused her hand holding the teacup, but quickly regained her composure. She took a sip of water first, then put down the cup before slowly looking at Huayuan and smiling, "Master is joking. I wonder what brings Master here today"

Since An Xuetang had gone straight to the point, Huayuan also stated his purpose for coming, “To be frank, this monk came here to ask the Northern Border Princess for a person.”

"Oh"

An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "Who does Master want"

"Do you remember the little girl named Shuangshuang that I met when I last visited the palace I wonder if she's still here"

Want to go in pairs

An Xue Tang looked at Huayuan's gaze, which gradually became profound. She did not answer Huayuan immediately, but first glanced at Mo Yun Jing beside her. Seeing that Mo Yun Jing's expression was still unchanged, she then said to Huayuan:

"Master, you are unaware, Shuangshuang this child dislikes being tired and restrained. The palace is too rule-bound for her, so she left long ago."

"Gone"

"Qiyuan's brow furrowed in rare displeasure, and after a moment of contemplation, he spoke, "Your Highness, do you know where she went"

An Xuetang shook her head. "This concubine doesn't know, but this child is clever and should be fine. Just why did the master suddenly want to find her"

"The monk sighed, "Your Majesty, this humble monk cannot hide anything from you. The first time I saw this child, I felt she was…"

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, Huai Yuan paused and gave Mo Yun Jing a thoughtful look. Seeing no reaction from him, she continued:

"Her eyes are very much like the former empress', and her age is also close to when the former empress gave birth. This monk wants to confirm if there might be a relationship between her and the child born to the former empress."

An Xuetang stiffened visibly at his words, but quickly regained her composure.

Let alone suspicions of seeking alms, she and Mo Yunjing have been investigating about Shuangshuang's parentage. They also suspect that Shuangshuang is the child born by Mo Yunjing's mother.

She had been searching for so long, but there were no leads. The more she dug, the deeper the mystery seemed to run, and the more she suspected that there was more to it than met the eye.ntly appeared on her face, "Ajing, don't you know me yet Compared to the so-called righteous path, I might prefer crooked paths."Mo Yunjing let out a little chuckle and couldn't help but pinch her del...
