Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

"At the moment when the guard leader was thrown out, he quickly moved away. His movements were very agile. If he was really a member of the guard, Shangguan Jin would not be unaware of it."

"Who is he? Why is he here?" After hearing this, Mo Chenjun became even more curious about Qiu Qianhuan. It was disturbing to see such a mysterious person among the guards.

"We will investigate this issue later." Jiang Xue said that there are more urgent matters to deal with at the moment.

"I see. No wonder you stayed in Huyin City."

After returning to the Mo family, Jiang Xue told Mo Chenjun the whole incident in detail.

After listening to it, he finally understood why Jiang Xue stayed in this city alone, and also understood why she was hung on the city wall.

"Shangguan Jin will do anything to force my brother to return to the city. He will sacrifice anyone, including me and An Yun. Now that I have left, the people in the Prince's Mansion must have passed the news to him. Next, he may use An Yun to threaten me to go back." Jiang Xue explained.

Mo Chenjun's face became darker and darker. During this period of time, An Yun became extremely important to him.

Her innocence, mechanical talent, and kind and lively personality were like a light that illuminated his world.

He developed a deep affection for An Yun. This was the first and only time in his life that his heart was moved.

"I will never let anyone hurt An Yun." Mo Chenjun said firmly, determined to protect this precious smile.

Mo Chenjun glanced at An Yun who was concentrating on studying the hand gun blueprints, and a sense of determination surged in his heart. He solemnly promised: "I will do my best to protect her."

"I believe the Major General wants to protect An Yun, but this is Huyin City, where power is intertwined. What if Shangguan Jin uses his position to put pressure on you? What will you do if he orders the lieutenant to hand over An Yun?" Jiang Xue's words hit the nail on the head.

"I will ask my father to plead for An Yun." Mo Chenjun replied.

"An Yun was only ordered to come to the mansion to manufacture weapons and does not really belong to the Mo family. Why should we go against the prince's orders for her?" Jiang Xue's words left Mo Chenjun speechless for a moment.

"Then what do you think I should do?" Mo Chenjun asked. Faced with the choice between his lover and his family, he was once again in trouble.

"Take An Yun away from here." Jiang Xue suggested. In any case, it was too dangerous for An Yun to stay in Hu Yin City. The only way to ensure her safety was to let her go.

"That's impossible." Mo Chenjun immediately refused.

Changle is thousands of miles away from Beixi, and he doesn't want to be separated from Anyun.

Jiang Xue was silent, her eyes were deep and heavy, as if carrying countless unspoken words, making Mo Chenjun feel unable to breathe.

At the same time, in the Prince's Mansion, Shangguan Jin looked coldly at the guard leader who was carried in - the man was no longer able to stand.

"Take him away, no need to leave him alive." He never showed mercy to useless people.

The guard leader's eyes were filled with fear, and he tried to beg for mercy but could not make a sound. Soon after, the sound of a knife falling could be heard in the courtyard, and the smell of blood filled the air.

"Pass on my order, ask Mo Huan to come see me." Shangguan Jin said in a deep voice.

Since it is not feasible to ask the Mohists for help directly, he must find another way.

Soon, Mo Huan arrived in front of the Prince's Mansion.

Since that trip to the waterside pavilion, she finally set foot on this land again. During these days in the Mo family, her life was like a dark and gloomy day.

Although the tribesmen seemed calm on the surface, they were talking about her behind her back, and even the servants often pointed fingers at her.

My father was always stationed in the military camp, and when he came back occasionally, he only cared about my younger brother's studies. The rest of the household chores were all taken care of by the eldest wife. My eldest brother was bedridden due to an injury, and the eldest wife forbade anyone to disturb him, so even if she was wronged, she had no one to confide in.

She had wanted to seek help from her elder sister in the palace, but the eldest lady firmly opposed it, even saying that she was no longer pure and should not defile her elder sister's residence. It was not until today that the Crown Prince sent someone to come, and the eldest lady had to let her go.

During this period, the hardships she experienced in the Mohist School deepened her longing for Shangguan Jin.

She was determined that once she had the chance to return to the Prince's Mansion, she would never give up easily. When she heard the news that she could leave, she was filled with indescribable joy.

"Mohuan pays respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." During the reunion, she tried hard to suppress her inner excitement and tried to appear calm and composed.

"I will give you a chance to return to the Prince's Mansion." Shangguan Jin did not look at her directly, but stared out the window and said in a cold tone.

A light of hope instantly ignited in Mohuan's eyes.

"Your Highness, please give your orders. The Mo family will do their best." She replied with trembling lips.

"Bring An Yun to me. In exchange, you can continue to serve as the prince's concubine." For him, such an arrangement was easy.

That night, An Yun and Jiang Xue chatted freely. During her stay in the Mo family, she could hardly find anyone to talk to, which made her feel extremely depressed.

"The eldest lady there is really terrible. She is extremely harsh towards children who are not born of the legitimate wife. Even an outsider like me can't bear it."

An Yun ate an apple while describing what she had observed about the Mo family. In her opinion, in such a large family, only Mo Chenjun was reasonable, while it was difficult to communicate with others.

"I heard that Commander Mo is very knowledgeable. You've been there for so long, didn't you have a chance to communicate with him?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.

Xiao Zhan once mentioned Mo Jue, the Grand Commandant of Mo. He was knowledgeable and not inferior to civil officials. It was only because he was born into a military family that he did not become a civil official; otherwise, the position of prime minister would have been easy for him.

"Speaking of Mo Jue, although we haven't met much, his ideas resonate with mine." An Yun took a bite of the apple and continued to eat on the other side, "But he always hides his thoughts and never speaks out his thoughts. Seeing him so frustrated, I feel uncomfortable."

Jiang Xue listened quietly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

An Yun's ideas are unique and may seem a bit rebellious in the eyes of the world.

Anyone who can understand her Mo Jue is obviously a person with unique insights.

However, such thoughts are often difficult to be accepted by the public, so Mo Jue's sigh is not only his regret for An Yun's situation, but also his helplessness about his own fate.

"It's late at night, you should rest." Jiang Xue reminded.

An Yun nodded in agreement and left the room with half an apple.

Not long after she left, there seemed to be a flash of movement outside the window. Jiang Xue quickly turned back to check, but found nothing. Perhaps she was too sensitive. She turned around, extinguished the candle, and prepared to go to bed.

On the other side, An Yun, who was walking home, met Mo Huan who had been waiting for a long time. "Sister Mo Huan?" she called out in surprise.

An Yun has heard a lot about the deeds of the second young lady recently.

When I learned about her bad situation, I felt very sympathetic.

Seeing Mo Huan, An Yun ran up to her without any precautions, took her hand and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Mo Huan looked down at the hand he was holding, then quietly pulled it away.
