Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 217
Feng Qingyao was surprised because she didn't expect that Mo Piao would pull herself out at the critical moment.The crown prince was surprised because the word Qingyao reminded him of Feng Qingyao involuntarily.

She has been missing for some time.

The last time his men found her was in Rongzhou in the west.At that time, Mo Zhanhua was also in Rongzhou. She thought that she came to find Mo Zhanhua. After the two met in Qingcheng Mountain, he could no longer find any news about her, and he didn't know if she was hidden by Mo Zhanhua.Furthermore, this patrol battalion is the Imperial City Guard directly under the command of the Emperor Father, even if Feng Qingyao really returned to the Imperial Capital, she would not come here to throw herself into a trap.

Thinking of this, a slight rippling flashed in his glazed eyes, which was quickly replaced by irritability, and he waved his hand, "Hurry up and say it."

Seeing that he was not suspicious, Feng Qingyao felt a heavy stone fall from her heart. She bent down and knelt down, and said in a low voice on purpose: "Reporting to His Royal Highness, when I was inspecting General Ling's mansion recently, I saw a black-clothed swordsman approaching stealthily." General's Mansion, he saw that the humble officer found out, and left without looking back."

"That must be him, you didn't catch him?"

"Xiaozhi once went to the general's mansion to inquire, and the guards in the mansion told him that no outsiders had entered, so he didn't investigate further."

"Send someone to look for it, dig three feet into the ground, and let me find that black-clothed swordsman!" the crown prince ordered.He came here to show Ling Weiyuan's direct lineage through the motions, but after hearing Feng Qingyao's words, he gave a few instructions casually, and left with his personal guards.

Naturally, Mo Biao sent the prince out of the patrol camp respectfully and respectfully.

After sending the prince away, he walked up to Feng Qingyao and asked with a serious face: "Qingyao, what you told the prince just now is the truth?"

"No." She was honest.

Mo Biao choked for a moment, he thought Feng Qingyao had lied and should cover it up, but he didn't expect her to admit it so directly.After coughing a few times, he asked again: "Do you know what crime it is to deceive the crown prince?"

Feng Qingyao showed no signs of fear, and there was a trace of a smile on her clear face: "The humble official thinks that it is the job of the humble official to rescue the commander, and it cannot be regarded as a lie."

These words made Mo Biao secretly startled again, and immediately retreated the people around him.

"You mean, the prince didn't come here to urge me to find out the murderer who killed General Ling?" He really didn't expect this.

Seeing everyone leave, Feng Qingyao understood that Mo Piao had begun to trust her, she smiled slightly, and said her opinion softly, "Master Commander, think about it carefully, when the prince first came in, he was filled with righteous indignation, but once he entered In the tent, is the anger much less? When the humble officer mentioned the black-clothed swordsman, the prince only said, "Dig three feet into the ground, and find the black-clothed swordsman too," but his tone was not that harsh."

Mo Biao thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. At that time, he was only worried about whether the prince would blame him, so how could he notice these details.Nodded, "Go ahead."

"In view of these changes in the prince, I guess that the prince's trip is for some people to see." As for who, it goes without saying.

Mo Biao began to admire the young man in front of him more and more, he didn't expect him to be so thoughtful at such a young age.If he hadn't reminded him, he would really have thought that the crown prince came to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes this time!
"Master Commander, if Qingyao's guess is correct, the crown prince will come again in a few days, all you need to do is—" She leaned close to Mo Biao's ear and said something softly.

Mo Biao kept nodding, "Okay, I will do as you say."

At this time, in Zhanwang's mansion, a deliberately elongated voice suddenly sounded: "The emperor is here!"
