Mo Xiangbin didn’t know what Mo Junyang wanted to do, and his doubtful eyes followed the young man.

He looked at Mo Junyang’s slender and forceful fingers and then looked down slowly, to see the words on the paper.

In the beginning, he didn’t pay attention to it and just thought Mo Junyang was so bored as to write the book About the Qin Continent from memory in front of him.

But he didn’t stop Mo Junyang.

After Mo Junyang quickly finished about two or three hundred words from the book About the Qin Continent, he hung the brush pen back on the shelf.

He picked up the paper and put it beside his mouth to blow it from top to bottom.

After the ink on the paper was dry, he gave it to Mo Xiangbin.

Mo Xiangbin received it and unfolded it. Looking at the boring words on it, he didn’t read them carefully but asked, “When I was a prince, I read the book About the Qin Continent and even recited some famous essays under the master’s instruction. Why do you show it to me now?”

“Your Majesty, do you know which story on the book the words on the paper are from?” Mo Junyang asked.

“This is…” Mo Xiangbin wanted to answer but found that he didn’t remember the words on the paper. He couldn’t tell which chapter these words were from.

Beyond expectation, Mo Junyang didn’t keep him in suspense but revealed the answer. “They are from About the Qin Continent, The Colorful Phenix, Nirvana and Rebirth.”

He gave the accurate answer and made Mo Xiangbin who thought he knew well about the book feel embarrassed.

He blushed in shame and didn’t dare to look at Mo Junyang.

This time, Mo Junyang thoughtfully lowered his head and looked at the paper again. Then he said with consideration, “Because the colorful phenix became a legend one thousand years ago, the chapter of The Colorful Phenix can’t provide valuable preferences except for giving the learners amusement while they are studying. Even the masters wouldn’t specially explain it but would only tell the students to read it at home if they are interested. It’s normal that you don’t remember it, Your Majesty.”

Mo Xiangbin nodded repeatedly and took the chance to say yes. “Right, I wonder why this chapter looks unfamiliar. My master left it out and didn’t teach me.”

“When the colorful phenix showed up on the Qin Continent, I thought that the book About the Qin Continent must have records about the colorful phenix, so I read the chapter of The Colorful Phenix.”

Hearing that, Mo Xiangbin showed relief and admiration on his dignified face.

He thought, “No wonder I trust Mo Junyang so much. There are so many children. Although this child has a weird character and doesn’t respect me as much as the princes, he has never disappointed me.”

He never let the emperor down.

Mo Xiangbin wasn’t disappointed but merely felt more surprised every time he talked with this young man or got close to him.

For example, this time, the news that the colorful phenix showed up in the world spread more than one month ago, but he believed that nobody except Mo Junyang would think about reading the book About the Qin Continent which had been passed down for a long time and was often heard and well-remembered.

Mo Xiangbin stopped himself from thinking more and paid attention to the paper again.

He wanted to see what words Mo Junyang planned to show him.

After reading them, Mo Xiangbin restrained his expression, and silence and seriousness were shown on his face.

After about fifteen minutes, he raised his head and stared at Mo Junyang solemnly. “Is this your solution? The book About the Qin Continent?”

Mo Junyang nodded silently.

Mo Xiangbin laughed and looked more mysterious. “Gee, I never knew in the past that the holy bird colorful phenix has such a magical function. It seems that the murderer can’t escape anyway, right?”

“As long as the colorful phenix’s dead body is still in our hands, the murderer will have nowhere to hide.”

Mo Junyang took the paper back slowly and folded it twice carefully, as if it was the winning treasure to capture the real murderer.

Mo Xiangbin was relieved and even joked, “If we find that the real murderer is that person, it would be fun.”

“Hmm,” Mo Junyang responded casually, and his tense and cold face looked as usual. Nobody could observe his emotion.

He put the paper back in Mo Xiangbin’s hand. “It’s proper to tell the crown prince to deal with it.”

But Mo Xiangbin was confused. “You can finish it by yourself, but why do you…” Give somebody else a chance to take the credit?

These years, Mo Junyang was always low-key and didn’t take the credit for himself. He even let others take the credit. But Mo Xiangbin knew that it was not that Mo Junyang was timid and afraid of attracting attention and getting himself into trouble.

Mo Junyang just didn’t care or want. He even turned up his nose at these things.

But the more Mo Junyang did like this, the more confused Mo Xiangbin was.

It couldn’t be because Mo Junyang was selfless.

As soon as such a thought flashed in Mo Xiangbin’s brain, he sniffed at it and put it all behind.

Mo Junyang was not even close to being kind, let alone being selfless.

Then why?

Mo Junyang pursed his lips and said simply, “The crown prince of the Mo Country can’t be deposed.”

These words showed Mo Junyu’s significance to the stability of the Mo Country’s current situation.

The heir to the throne stood for a country’s future, even though it was a crown prince nobody liked. Even if Mo Xiangbin deprived him of his title like before, it would cause turbulence after the news spread, not to mention that he was deposed.

So, even though Mo Xiangbin deprived Mo Junyu of his title, he didn’t issue an edict till now because he was afraid that many things would be implicated and he could hardly wind this matter up.

“So…just do as you said!” Mo Xiangbin sighed and had complex feelings.

He sighed with emotion because of Mo Junyang’s overall vision, and he thought even he couldn’t compare with this young man, let alone the princes who fought for the position of the heir to the throne at outrance even regardless of the country’s safety.

Mo You failed in convincing Mo Junyang and then went back to the East Palace in low spirits, feeling that he was too ashamed to see Mo Junyu.

But he had to report to Mo Junyu about something.

He could only bite the bullet with a blush.

He was helpless and guilty. “It’s my fault. I am not a good talker and can’t persuade His Excellency. Please punish me, Your Highness.”

Mo Junyang smiled bitterly and waved his hand, with a sad expression, but he was not surprised at all.

He had expected such a result.

“Mo Junyang is resolute and never changes his mind because he is confused after he makes a choice. I hurt him first, and it’s not surprising that he will abandon me,” Mo Junyu said incisively, but panic and sorrow couldn’t be concealed in his tone as he would be abandoned.

Mo You felt heartbroken and anxious to see that, but he could do nothing.

He thought hard and could only figure out a way. “How about I go to beg the Empress Dowager once more?”

“No. Grandma has done so much for me this time. I don’t want to bother her anymore.”

In the imperial palace, the only person who sincerely loved him was Ling Ruiyin. Even if Mo Junyu was imprisoned, he didn’t want to consume this true love excessively.

“But…” Mo You still wanted to say something or do something.

In a word, he couldn’t stand by and watch Mo Junyu being defeated.

Mo Junyu shook his head wearily again and said in a deep voice, “Well, I am tired today. Go back home to have a rest. If there is nothing, don’t come to the East Palace in case that you are implicated.”

If Mo Xiangbin showed the only consideration for this son, it was probably that he didn’t kill all the crown prince’s followers but just took actions against him alone.

He protected the crown prince’s force to some extent.

After all, as long as the crown prince’s followers were not frustrated and he was still alive, he had a chance to turn the tables.

“Your Highness, I have some words. I don’t know if I can say.”

It meant that he had to say it.

Mo You refused to leave but looked at Mo Junyu persistently.

Mo Junyu hesitated, but he couldn’t bear to forcefully kick out this cousin who was loyal to him.

He merely raised his hand and rubbed his temple continuously, saying in a deep voice, “Go ahead!”

“The late empress…” Mo You intentionally slowed his voice, afraid that if he brought up the late empress, he would make Mo Junyu sad.

But he still insisted, “Before my aunt succumbed to an illness, she once grabbed my hand and yours, telling me to help you govern the Mo Country, Your Highness. Even if you won’t leave a good name for posterity, you can’t be a sinner in the history or a mediocrity in people’s eyes.

“I have seen that you always work hard these years and fight for this goal. Why do you plan to give up just because of a little frustration?”

Mo Junyu opened his mouth at once and tried to retort.

But meeting Mo You’s bright eyes, he couldn’t say what he wanted to.

For something, he couldn’t cheat others.

Mo Junyu couldn’t help but remember the past. That year, he suffered a fatal attack of smallpox, and even Ling Ruiyin almost gave him up, but he didn’t give up himself, while God didn’t give him up but brought Mo Junyang to him. However, this time…

Thinking of what happened in the Moral Hall earlier, Mo Junyu raised his hand to cover his eyes, and his handsome face looked ferocious in pain.

“It’s not that I want to give up, but he wants to give up on me!”

Mo Junyu murmured and complained in a low voice that could hardly be heard, venting the agony and struggle he had restrained all the time.

Mo You was stunned but soon realized who “he” was as Mo Junyu mentioned.

These years, only Mo Xiangbin could make Mo Junyu so sorrowful.

Mo You opened his mouth and was about to comfort Mo Junyu, but he shut up at last. Under the situation, what else could he say?

Mo Junyu just lost his mind only for a short while. Afterward, the ferocious look on his face disappeared, as if what Mo You had seen earlier was a painting, and nothing was left after he wiped it away.

“I am fine. You go back first.” Mo Junyu ignored Mo You’s shocked expression and spoke calmly.

Mo You planned to say more, but they were at a stalemate again. Even if he wanted to cheer for Mo Junyu, he was at a loss for words, so he had to shut his mouth.

At this time, Quan ran into the East Palace in haste with an imperial decree.

Quan came to Mo Junyu and stood, putting the bright yellow scroll in front of his chest and shouting sharply, “Your Highness, His Majesty told you to do something. Please accept the imperial decree right now!”

Mo Junyu was petrified and then seemed to think of something. He looked terrible and then trembled.

“Is Father going to depose the crown prince?

“It finally comes.”
