“Eldest Brother, you’re still making fun of me,” Mo Yu protested in a huff.

  Mo Lian cast him a glance in exasperation while shaking his head.

  Today, the youth was wearing a dark, narrow-sleeved short garment, with his fine, black hair casually tied up high into a ponytail. This getup made him appear lively and spirited.

  He had good looks and scholarship, was bright and also sensible. It was just that he was still a bit uninhibited.

  It was no wonder that when he told his royal father last night that he was going to entrust Yu’er with the kingdom, his royal father looked as if the sky was about to collapse.

  He seemed as if he wished for nothing more than to hug his thigh and bawl out bitterly.

  In reality, even though Yu’er was still young, some of his views and opinions left quite the impression.

  He was a good child. Given time and with meticulous nurturing, he would certainly become a wise king.

  Even though a year’s time was a bit rushed, it was not impossible to nurture this child into someone who could shoulder this responsibility.

  But now, it seemed like he wasn’t even able to spare a year’s time.

  “Here.” Qiao Mu took out a platter of fresh and juicy peaches from her inner world before she beckoned everyone to come take one.

  She had thrown some of these peaches into her inner world, but there weren’t many left now.

  When she thought about how Paradise Planet was still sealed shut, Qiao Mu became a bit dejected.

  She wondered when her little Qiuqiu would wake up. She somewhat missed that noisy little fellow.

  “Eldest Sister-in-Law, it’s really yummy.” When Song Xiaotie turned around and saw the twelfth prince, he almost swallowed his tongue.

  Qiao Mu also twitched her mouth uncontrollably. However, when she saw his pitiable look, her heart softened and she took a few more from her inner world to give to him. “Take them and eat them slowly.”


  “Eldest Sister-in-Law~”

  Mo Lian stretched out his palm, pushing aside that fellow’s face that had gotten too up close and personal.

  “Scram!”


  There was an amiable atmosphere in the carriage, and everyone in the carriage cracked up. At this time, the carriage turned on to a mountainous path that led up Fu Mountain.

  Because the carriage was too large, they alighted and planned to walk up the mountain.

  As it had just passed 9 o’clock in the morning, the weather was clear and bright, and the morning breeze blew gently. They could see the green mountains in the distance, putting them in an excellent mood.

  The Mo capital fortification could be considered to be the most flawless fortification in the entire Sikong Planet.

  At present, Southern Baili, Northern Wei, and the other kingdoms were all following their example in building this kind of fortification.

  If the zombie situation could be controlled and slowly ameliorated, then everything would be even more perfect.

  The group of people laughed and shot the breeze as they hiked up the mountain.

  Not long after they departed, several mounts and carriages also arrived at the foot of Fu Mountain.

  The Vassal Prince of An’nan, dressed in a crimson riding outfit, energetically dismounted his horse and tossed his whip to the boy servant nearby.

  Meanwhile, the girls walked down lissomely from the carriages, and they whispered to each other while looking up at the hill.

  “It is still the vassal prince who has good ideas. How could a flower-viewing gathering be as interesting as a spring outing!” The young sir who spoke smiled obsequiously.

  Everyone swept him a contemptuous gaze in ridicule.

  “Fifth Young Sir Zheng, has your Zheng Family been doing alright recently.” A heavy-jowled and pot-bellied young man smiled as he looked at that Fifth Young Sir of the Zheng Family.

  This remark prompted several people’s sniggers.

  “Ay, Young Sir Xu’s words are not correct. It is commonly said that even a shipwrecked boat possesses iron nails, much less the august Zheng Estate. It is not possible for it to collapse just like that.”


  Fifth Young Sir Zheng’s face immediately flushed red.
