Chapter 569 Tian Rong Gets Beaten
Chapter 569 Tian Rong Gets Beaten
Since the other party had said that, Du Mingxian was naturally willing to go out with Mo. Anyway, she didn't know this Aunt Bai, and she wouldn't be able to hear the two of them talking inside.
Staying behind only brings frustration.
The two walked into the street. Du Mingxian didn't notice anyone around her, so she asked in a low voice, "Who was that Aunt Bai just now? She looked really powerful."
"Impressive, how could it not be impressive? As the person in charge, Tian Rong's little brother will be raised by Aunt Bai."
That's really impressive.
"Where are Tian Rong's parents?"
"died."
Du Mingxian wanted to ask more, but Mo turned to look at her and finally couldn't utter a single question. "In our deal, I need your help, but you also have to protect me in the end."
"it is good."
"Also, I will find a way to get Tian Rong to contact those people. How many you can catch is up to you, and if you can't catch them, it's because you're incompetent. I only care about Tian Rong leaving the Tian family; she is under my control."
"it is good."
Mo smiled when he heard Du Mingxian agree completely, "It's definitely different. Following the Crown Prince gives you confidence."
Instead of explaining, Du Mingxian asked, "Where would you like to go for a walk?"
"Let's take a stroll first. Didn't you want to buy some fabric? We can buy some fabric before we go back."
"it is good."
As the two strolled along, they both sensed someone behind them. Mo turned around and glanced back. "Yours?"
Du Mingxian turned around and saw Chunfeng. "Yes."
Mo glanced around. "I'm not sure if Tian Rong's people are here. Go to the rouge stall over there and wait for her. Tell her to meet me at the teahouse up ahead in a bit."
"Okay, thank you."
Whether Mo is genuinely helping her or not, as long as the handover can be completed, that's fine.
She went to the rouge stall, and Chunfeng quickly came over. Mo stood in the middle of the road waiting, showing no intention of going forward.
"lady."
"See you at the teahouse up ahead in a bit. It doesn't matter who comes to see me."
"it is good."
Du Mingxian casually asked the price but didn't buy anything, and continued walking forward with Mo. Chunfeng, on the other hand, bought a box with silver and quickly returned to deliver the message.
Inside the teahouse, the two went in and asked for a private room. They sat down silently and looked around. When they heard a knock on the door, he said, "I'll give you fifteen minutes. It can't be too long."
"Okay, thank you."
Mo stepped forward and opened the door. The Crown Prince and Chunfeng arrived. After exchanging greetings, Mo left without lingering or saying a word.
The prince stepped into the private room, while Chunfeng stayed outside to guard the door.
"Why did you come here? The Tian family is keeping a close eye on you; it's too dangerous for you to come in."
The crown prince was in disguise, and waved his hand dismissively, "It's not easy to run into you, so of course I had to come and see you."
Du Mingxian disregarded everything else and quickly told the Crown Prince what she had learned: "That place should be where they hide the silver, or it could be where they conduct their business. We need to send someone to investigate secretly."
"okay, I get it."
Du Mingxian hurriedly went to the side. The private room was the best one, and it had the Four Treasures of the Study. She took out a pencil from her sleeve and quickly drew a portrait of Aunt Bai on it.
"This woman just went to see Tian Rong. Tian Rong has a younger brother who is their hope. Tian Rong's younger brother is being raised by this woman called Aunt Bai."
The Crown Prince didn't even have time to marvel at Du Mingxian's painting, which was incredibly lifelike. He quickly put the painting away and said, "I know about this and will investigate."
"Tian Rong knows you're in the prefectural city, and Prince Ming should know you're there too. Be careful in your dealings."
"Don't worry, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me."
The traitor in the capital has not yet been caught; it is unknown who exposed his whereabouts.
Du Mingxian then recounted some details about the Tian family, including how Tian Rong had ordered them to kill someone and even paid them money in compensation.
"We wanted to make a fuss about this, but when we found that the people from the Ming Prince's Mansion were obstructing us, we were afraid of being exposed, so we didn't take any further action."
"It's good that we didn't make a move; those people are difficult to deal with."
"Hmm." The Crown Prince looked at Du Mingxian's big belly, his brows furrowing. "Your belly is getting bigger and bigger, I'm really afraid something will happen."
"Then get rid of the Tian family before I give birth, so I can return to Shiro's side to give birth in peace."
She hoped to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
The Crown Prince said, "After you sent me your message last time, I had Chunfeng go to see him. He was very worried about your safety, but he was also afraid that you would be anxious. He kept saying that he believed you could handle it well."
"That's right, it's good that you trust me to handle it."
The two exchanged a few words, then returned to their seats, and the Crown Prince immediately left.
Mo and Du Mingxian had a few sips of tea, then strolled around for a while, bought some fabric and needles and thread, and went straight back to their residence.
After they returned, Tian Rong had not yet come back, so Du Mingxian began to cut clothes for the baby in her belly.
She has lived two lives. In her first life, she was quite adept at needlework. In her second life, she was so busy making a living that she hardly ever touched a needle and thread. Now, a long time has passed.
Right now, holding the scissors, I'm a bit rusty when it comes to cutting or sewing.
Before she could get used to the technique, Tian Rong returned, carried back, her back covered in wounds, which Du Mingxian immediately recognized as whip marks.
Once Tian Rong was returned to her room, Nan'er immediately sent someone to fetch a doctor to treat her wounds. Du Mingxian could only help from the side. While the maids below could handle tasks like changing the water, she, as the personal maid, still had some duties to perform.
"How could Miss be injured like this? The injury is too serious." Du Mingxian felt that the injury was really serious, and she was not acting at all, but really wanted to know.
Nan'er's eyes were red, and her voice was choked with sobs, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Just take good care of Miss."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian sensed the dissatisfaction in Nan'er's tone and dared not speak further.
Nan'er was very skilled at treating this kind of external injury and quickly finished it. The doctor also came, took her pulse, and prescribed some medicine to help her recover.
Even though her master was injured like this, Du Mingxian didn't dare to rest and could only stay in the room to keep watch.
In the end, Mo walked in and said, "Xiao Du, you go and rest. I'll stay here and take care of her."
Du Mingxian looked somewhat troubled, her face full of worry for Tian Rong. "I still want to stay with Miss."
Nan'er spoke up, "Go and rest. The baby in your belly is more important."
Upon seeing this, Du Mingxian immediately agreed, "Okay."
She turned and left, abandoning the rest.
The next day, she got up and found Tian Rong's room door open. She went in and found that Nan'er was not there, only Mo was on the bed, looking like he had just woken up.
"Young Master Mo."
Mo saw her expression and said, "Nan'er, go and rest. You can stay here to serve her this morning."
