C101

Prime Minister's Estate.

Prime Minister Luo's eyes were filled with red, the veins on his forehead were popping out as his hands clenched into fists. His face was flushed red with extreme anger.

The Head Supervisor of the Luo Residence stood behind him without even daring to make a sound. The old master's face was always amiable and amiable. Even though he didn't know what had happened, he had never seen the old master so furious.

At this moment, Prime Minister Luo's heart was like millions of ants crawling side by side, anxious and restless. On his face, there was fury, unwillingness, and also annoyance!

In the morning of the imperial court, everything happened so suddenly that he could not understand what it meant for Yan Mo Chen to thank Mo Yi. Now, he finally understood that the county magistrate had betrayed him and told Yan Mo Chen about the iron mine.

"Master, this subordinate just sent someone to investigate and found out that the county magistrate had already returned home without a trace." At the door, a guard knelt down and reported.

Hearing this, Prime Minister Luo's expression became even gloomier, and he clenched his fists even tighter …

Moreover, the majority of the expenses of his residence depended on the income from the iron ores. Now that the iron ores were handed over, his Prime Minister's Estate would probably be left without a single piece of ore in a few days. Thinking like this, the hatred in his heart for Doyen and Yan Mo Chen grew even deeper.

"Servants, head to the Cabinet Hall and 'invite' the Bachelor to be a guest!" Prime Minister Luo's face was gloomy as he yelled. His tone had clearly changed after he spoke. It could be seen that his anger had reached its peak.

"Yes." The guard at the door accepted the order.

Prime Minister Luo's fists were still clenched tightly as his gloomy expression continued until the time it takes to burn an incense stick. Only then did he regain his senses as he thought over the details of today's morning assembly.

It seemed that it was not only Yan Mo Chen who had secretly set him up, but even now, Joe was afraid that he would not be able to escape responsibility.

Prime Minister Luo gave a cold snort. It seemed like this little girl with less than full wings had grown up and dared to reveal her fangs to confront him. Could it be that she had forgotten who she was relying on today's support! Did he really think that with Yan Mo Chen's help, the two of them would be able to control the court affairs? What a joke!

"Master, the Cabinet Master has arrived at the Mansion."

Just as Prime Minister Luo was feeling angry, a notification came from the entrance, bringing his thoughts back to normal. He let out a cold laugh, Yan Mo Chen and Qiao Qiao were still working together to plan things for him, waiting for him to settle with them after autumn. It was as the saying went, 'I will repay the debts of my father with my sons'.

"Send it up!" he snapped.

"Yes." With the command from the guard, he walked step by step towards the study room of the Luo Residence.

Seeing Prime Minister Luo's gloomy expression, he couldn't help but shiver. If he knew earlier, he would have found a reason to shirk his responsibility.

"Greetings, Prime Minister." He bowed politely.

"Hmph." Prime Minister Luo gave a cold snort before he stood up. With a furious expression, he took large strides towards Mo Yi and ruthlessly slapped him in the face.

"Whap!" A loud sound rang out, echoing throughout the entire Luo Mansion.

A trickle of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth as he fell to the ground. He looked back at Prime Minister Luo and cursed, "I am a grand master in the Cabinet, what right do you have to hit me?"

"Why!" "You two father and son have deceived me and betrayed me. I have already shown you the greatest amount of forgiveness. Men, bring him down to the dungeon. If he is allowed to live a good life, then both of you will suffer!"

"Yes." When the guards heard the order, they grabbed the fallen Ge Yi. They didn't hesitate when dealing with a person the Prime Minister had specially taken care of.

"Stop, what right do you have to imprison me? I'm a minister of the imperial court, a bachelor of state in the cabinet. What right do you have to look for the emperor? I want to look for the emperor!" Banyi shouted all the way until the sound faded away.

Prime Minister Luo loosened his grip slightly. A few lines of blood could clearly be seen on his palm. He didn't mind and strode out the door.

At this moment, the sound of laughter could be heard from within the Heartrest Palace in the Royal Palace.

"Hahahahaha!" Qiao still laughed in front of Yan Mo Chen without caring about his image at all.

Yan Mo Chen was speechless, but his brows were filled with love.

"Stop laughing..." Yan Mo Chen tried to dissuade her with a soft voice.

"Hahahaha." Joe still couldn't control himself.

"Stop laughing..." Yan Mo Chen advised again.

"Hahahaha." Qiao Qiao was still trying even harder to smile.

"…" Yan Mo Chen looked a little embarrassed. This little girl treated him like thin air. It was rare for her to be in such a good mood, so he did not say anything more.

"Hahahaha, have you seen Prime Minister Luo's defeated appearance today! I will vent my anger just by looking at it! Even if he were to die, he would not dare to say that the iron mine is related to him. Joe laughed again.

"…" Yan Mo Chen didn't know what to say to stop this little girl who liked to laugh.

"Ha ha-ha ha, you said that he spent so much effort and money to dig up the iron ore, and the profit was taken away by us right away. Will he go mad now?" Qiao Qiao still laughed exaggeratedly, his words were still very clever, and his words were still very clear.

"…" Although Yan Mo Chen was happy, he knew that they had just started out together with Prime Minister Luo. The power behind that old fox should not be underestimated, but seeing how happy this girl was today, he decided to wait for the future.

"Hahahaha." Joe continued to smile.

"Don't tell me I'm leaving tomorrow? Are you that happy?" Yan Mo Chen frowned, although he knew that the only person Qiao Qiao could still trust was him, that was why he was personally responsible for supervising the operation of the Python Iron Mine. Although the drought in the south was a fake, it was still a part of the movie, he was definitely going to leave this time, he originally wanted to catch up with the little girl before he left, but he did not expect her to laugh non-stop right from the moment they met.

As expected, the moment Yan Mo Chen finished speaking, Qiao Qiao immediately stopped smiling and stared with her eyes wide open. She could only think of Prime Minister Luo's defeated appearance and had forgotten that she had pushed the boat with the water in the morning and pushed Yan Mo Chen out of the capital.

"What a heartless girl." Yan Mo Chen's mouth twitched, his face was filled with dissatisfaction.

Qiao Qiao's brows were still drooping and her expression was slightly sad. Suddenly, her large, watery eyes flashed continuously. Her eyelashes fluttered as she looked at Yan Mo Chen with a fawning expression and said, "Why don't you bring me along?"

Yan Mo Chen frowned, he raised his head and lightly tapped on Qiao Qiao's forehead, his tone was light but there was a hint of love in it, "The road is far, the wind is out, I don't know how many days it will take to return, you want to follow me and suffer?"

"I'm willing!" Joe continued to pout.

"Do you not care about the matters of the court?" Yan Mo Chen asked with a smile on his face.

At this moment, she really did not want to be the emperor. She would rather be the most ordinary person, to be able to be together with the person she loved until the age of old.

The reason why she was able to defeat Prime Minister Luo was because a letter which was secretly sent to him by Mo Yi had landed in their hands. The contents of the letter were shallow, and it explained to the county magistrate that Prime Minister Luo did not get him a good position, and it was full of complaints, but Yan Mo Chen had an idea and used it as an excuse to add on the matter of Prime Minister Luo secretly murdering him on top of the letter. If his father saw that his son was wronged, he would naturally resent it.

"Then you must come back early." Qiao Qiao was still helpless. Just as Yan Mo Chen had said, she could not leave Qiao Country behind and could not ignore the imperial government. After all, this was her Qiao Family's territory, how could she watch it flow into the hands of the thieves?

"Right." Yan Mo Chen nodded his head, gently caressing Qiao Qiao's inky hair, and said with concern, "You have to be careful, once Prime Minister Luo is calm, he will figure out that this morning is a joint scheme of ours. I am afraid that he will make a move against you while I am not around."

"Don't worry. With Qingwu, Meng Shi, and Zi Ran by my side, what is there to be afraid of?" Qiao still pursed his lips and smiled, trying to make Yan Mo Chen feel at ease.

"Yes, I will keep Yan Mu by your side. He will immediately report to me if anything happens." Yan Mo Chen said with a serious face.

"No." "Yan Mu is your right-hand man, and your trip this time will be fraught with dangers. With Yan Mu by your side, I can rest assured that even if Prime Minister Luo sensed me while I'm in the palace, he would not dare to act rashly."

Yan Mo Chen frowned and did not say anything, but a decision was already sprouting in his heart. Only now did he realize that if he loved someone, he would only want to give her the best he could, and his life and death had long been ranked behind hers.

Only because Yan Mu was his most trusted subordinate would he be able to feel at ease if Yan Mu remained behind.

He held Qiao Qiao's face in his hands and left a shallow mark on her forehead. Only then was he satisfied. He smiled and said, "Wait for my return."

"Right." Joe nodded his head.
