Mo Xiao hadn't heard Tang Xiuyan's name for a long time, and now he was stunned for a moment when he heard it again.

"Tang Xiu Banquet?" Mo Xiao sneered, "Since he wants to see me, let him come."

Qiu Yue felt a candle for Tang Xiuyan in her heart. When should she make trouble, but if she made trouble at this time, it would not end well.

After Mo Xiao reviewed several minutes of the memorial, Tang Xiuyan was brought up.

He now uses a cane and walks slowly. He has lost a lot of weight, and his face is even more haggard. He does not look like he once was.

He knelt in front of Mo Xiao and said, "I have met His Highness."

Mo Xiao held the memorial in his hand and didn't even raise his head when he heard the words: "You want to see me?"

Tang Xiuyan lowered his head and pursed his lips tightly. After a while, he said with some difficulty: "I want to know when will the benefits His Highness promised me be fulfilled?"

His tone was a little bitter: "There is no place for me in this capital. I just want to take the money and go back to my hometown to live a stable life. Please do so, Your Highness."

Mo Xiao lowered his eyes and finished reviewing the fold, then threw away the pen in his hand and looked down at Tang Xiuyan: "What promise did I make to you?"

Tang Xiuyan raised his head in astonishment, somewhat in disbelief: "His Highness clearly said that as long as I report to the official and lead someone to investigate the prince, you will give me a large sum of money and let me go home."

His pupils were trembling a little, and he twitched the corner of his mouth dryly: "Your Highness is busy with things, so it is understandable and excusable that he forgot for a moment."

Mo Xiao smiled half-heartedly: "Is this the case?"

Tang Xiuyan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, there is such a thing."

Mo Xiao snorted and glanced at the eunuch beside him: "Since it's my promise, I have to abide by it. Go and get him some money."

The little eunuch lowered his eyebrows and took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to Tang Xiuyan: "Take it."

Tang Xiuyan looked at the money bag, and the expression on his face became a little unbearable.

He realized later that he had been tricked by Mo Xiao. At first, Mo Xiao promised to give him money, but he didn't specify how much he would give him. Now giving him so much is like giving away a beggar.

Mo Xiao hated himself in his heart, but Tang Xiuyan knew it.

Tang Xiuyan closed his eyes and did not go to get the money bag. Instead, he looked up at Mo Xiao and gritted his teeth to say: "Your Highness, is this too much?"

Mo Xiao: "Is this too much?"

His eyes instantly turned cold, and the hair on Tang Xiuyan's back stood up as he stared straight at him.

"You should be lucky that you are still alive and well, instead of being skinned by me because of cramps, chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs."

Tang Xiuyan: "..."

Tang Xiuyan shivered with excitement.

He clenched his hands tightly into fists, endured the tremendous pressure, and said softly: "Is it because of her?"

"But she is already yours, isn't that enough?"

Mo Xiao suddenly became furious, grabbed the inkstone on the table and threw it down, shouting: "It's not enough, how could it be? Have you forgotten what you did to her in the first place?"

Tang Xiuyan was shaking violently: "That is also a matter between us. After all, we..."

Mo Xiao didn't let him finish the rest of his words. The folding book on the table had hit his head hard, breaking his forehead, and blood dripped down his forehead and all over his face.

Tang Xiuyan moved his lips, and then tasted the rust.

Mo Xiao: "If you dare to mention her again, the former prince will serve as a lesson for you."

Tang Xiuyan's pupils shrank suddenly and he couldn't say another word.
