When it was almost noon, Crown Prince Mo came to the Marquis of Jiayuan's Estate to pick Qiao Mu up before heading to the Highest Judiciary.
On the way, he secretly told her, "Royal Father has already issued an edict. Tomorrow, Qiao Dongbo and those people will all be driven out from the capital."
Qiao Mu was leaning against him as her teeth engaged in a trial of strength with a stick of dried fruit. Upon hearing his words, she raised her head and pursed her small lips, saying, "You hid from your dad yesterday, so is it even possible for him to not say bad things about me today? There's an eighty percent chance he poured out his grievances for the entire morning!"
Yet laughing out loud, Mo Lian encircled her body as he leaned over to prop his chin up on her small head. "Guess what Royal Father said to me?"
"What else could it be other than incessantly criticizing how fierce I am." Qiao Mu harrumphed, responding instantly without even thinking it over.
