by North Night (夜北)


  The unsuspecting Mo Qian Yuan who was standing there just moments before was now pinned onto the ground by a huge black panther. He was petrified as he stared with his mouth and eyes agape at the black panther on him, trying to digest what had just happened.

  Volume 1

  Chapter 67: “The Crown Prince (3)”

  In an instant, a little black cat actually turned into a huge black panther?

  The panther’s huge body kept Mo Qian Yuan pinned down as Jun Wu Xie walked over to its side.

  “I’m not used to speaking rubbish so if you are not stupid, you will soon find out what’s going on.” Jun Wu Xie bent down as one of her slender white hand gripped on firmly to his chin. Although her fingers looked so delicate, who knew they mustered such strength! In a very practiced and swift manner, she opened his mouth and shoved a pill in as she closed his mouth and hit his chest. It happened in seconds, it was simply fast and accurate.

  Before he could even react, he had swallowed whatever she had thrown in.

  “Wha…What are you up to….?” He looked at her with bloodshot eyes as he felt his heart palpitating quickly. He didn’t know what she was planning and it made him fear her a little.

  “Little Black, keep an eye on him.” She didn’t bother replying him as she walked over to the stone chairs in the pavilion and casually sat on one of them.

  Mo Qing Yuan still tried to break free as he struggled. The huge panther opened its mouth wide as it gave a warning growl and lowered its head as it positioned Mo Qing Yuan’s neck between it’s sharp teeth.

  “If he utters a single word, feel free to bite him.” She said emotionlessly as she gave the panther the order.

  The black panther stood there motionless as it stared at the man beneath it.

  Mo Qing Yuan’s mind was distraught as he thought to himself. This was the worst birthday ever. Tonight must be one of the most depressing nights he ever had, to think that he actually let a little girl pull a fast one over him!

  Under the threat of the panther, he slowly closed his eyes, as he reluctantly began to accept his own fate.

  Sure enough, he really is a good for nothing. He gave up so easily. He did not dare move a single muscle.

  Time ticked by slowly, Mo Qian Yuan felt that the discomfort he had, all the prickly sensations, all that disgusting feeling of ants crawling all over him for all these years seemed to be subsiding.

  He flung his eyes wide open as he looked at Jun Wu Xie with a shocked expression.

  “You….”

  “ROAR!” The panther issued another warning as it tightened it’s grip on his neck.

  Jun Wu Xie glanced over and said: “Little Black, let him go.”

  As soon as she uttered those words, Mo Qian Yuan felt the pressure on him suddenly released as the huge figure swooped towards Jun Wu Xie and a cute little black cat once again appeared in her arms.

  “Meow.”

  [Ugh, his whole body reeks! It stinks of alcohol! The stench is killing me!]

  Jun Wu Xie gently stroked it’s fur lovingly.

  “It..no…You…What did you feed me with? Why am I…? Mo Qing Yuan had not felt so clear headed for such a long time. With this sudden soberness, it had happened too suddenly that he did not know what to ask.

  “Something that can save your life.” Jun Wu Xie felt that this approach was much simpler as results could be seen quickly.

  Mo Qian Yuan looked deeply at her, his fingers slightly as he asked in a low voice: “Why do you want to help me”

  Jun Wu Xie replied very matter of factly: “I want you to fight against your father and Mo Xuan Fei. I want you to ascend the throne so that you can keep my Jun Family safe.”

  The position of the Emperor should have been changed long ago as the current Emperor will die, Mo Xuan Fei too. Since the country needs a ruler, she will choose one that would protect her family.

  “You want me to usurp the throne?!” Mo Qing Yuan was completely shocked. Never had he expected such an outrageous matter to be discussed so lightly moreover it was Jun Wu Xie who had initiated it. Such treacherous words coming out from her mouth shocked him silly.

  Jun Wu Xie raised her eyebrows: “You do not want to?”

  Volume 1

  Chapter 68: “The Crown Prince (4)”

  Mo Qian Yuan looked at Jun Wu Xie as his shocked expression gradually changed into a smile. He started laughing crazily.

  “Hahahah! If you want, why not? Since they want to kill me, why can’t I do the same to them?Tell me, can you really save my life?” He stared intently at her, henow looked at her in a different light, she was no longer the outrageous superfluous young girl he had in mind.

  “Of course.” Jun Wu Xie answered simply as her eyes showed determination.

  “But it’s not enough.” He frowned. “There is no faction that will support me in the fight for the throne. Even if I’ve fully recovered, I have no way to wrest the throne from him. If he’s really intent on killing me, he has his ways.”

  “There will be.” She replied blandly.

  “Lin Palace will be your backing. Rui Lin Army will support you for this fight for the throne. But you do have to remember this one fact clearly – I can save your life, similarly, I can also take your life away. Our Lin Palace can support you to get the throne but we also have the power to drag you off it.”

  When the crown changed, she needed someone with the Royal Bloodline to be the next in line, Lin Palace just needed to be in the shadows.

  “Rui Lin Army…But…” He gave her a conflicted look. Jun Qing’s own situation was more precarious than his own. Who will lead them when he’s gone? Were they able to maintain the same might?

  “You do not need to worry about these things. Just mind your own problems. If you want to live and exact your revenge, you have to accept the condition. If you want to die, I will not force you. That pill you ate just now can only relieve your discomfort temporarily, there’s too much toxins accumulated in your blood stream so we need more time to completely clear it.” She explained.

  Mo Qing Yuan took a deep breath, he knew he had no choice as he’s been backed into a corner by his own family already. He still had to avenge this blood feud! Who cares what condition she threw at him, even if he had to brave through fire and hell he’d do it!

  “I agree.” He made this life changing decision instantly.

  “Very good, next time you’ll have to find some reason to meet up with me, I will slowly get rid of all the poison.” She looked at him in the eye before turning around as she softly said: “Mo Qian Yuan, you won’t regret this choice you made today.”

  She carried the little black cat in her arms as she went back towards the banquet hall.

  Looking to her fading back, he clenched his fist tightly trying to suppress all the emotions that he was feeling now. Over the years, he had felt that his soul and mind had slowly breaking down into many pieces and he even considered giving up. Never had he thought that this day was possible. He felt that today he had finally found back a small piece of himself and was determined to recover back all that he had lost.

  Jun Wu Xie, no matter what you want, as long as you help me accomplish what I want to do, this life of mine belongs to you!

  In Jun Wu Xie’s arm, Little Black was swishing its tail excitedly.

  “Meow.”

  [Its been such a long time since I’ve transformed… I’m still not really used to it. Say, Master, how did you know that the Emperor was the one behind the Queen’s death? How did you also know that it was the Emperor that destroyed her family?]

  Little Black was certain that it did not hear such news from Jun Xian and Jun Qing, so how did she acquire such privileged information?

  “I did not know.”

  [What?]

  “I said it casually.” She answered calmly.

  She slipped back into the banquet as she sat there quietly.

  The Emperor sat on his throne as he was enjoying himself as he talked and laughed loudly
among the various ministers. The banquet was heating up as the music and dance carried on through the night.

  As the main star of the party, Mo Qian Yuan had actually left in the midst of it, giving Mo Xuan Fei a chance to perform his perfect king candidate role. He and Bai Yun Xian entertained the various ministers and was every bit the golden couple everyone was talking about. They had completely ignored Jun Wu Xie, on the other hand, the one who kept sneaking glances to see if she was alright was Jun Qing who was worried that she was heartbroken.

  However, the facts proved that Jun Qing’s theory was all wrong.

  Throughout the rest of the banquet, Jun Wu Xie did not even bother to look at the couple.

  Volume 1

  Chapter 69:”Love (1)”

  Mo Qing Yuan really was very efficient. Just right after his banquet, the very next morning using the pretext of ‘Wu Xie and I really hit it off’ as the reason, he invited Jun Wu Xie to the palace.

  The biggest reaction came from Jun Xian and Jun Qing. They did not understand why did Mo Qing Yuan suddenly invited Jun Wu Xie over, what was even more surprising was that Jun Wu Xie had expressed her intention of accepting the invite. They could only helplessly let her go as she pleased.

  It was noon as Jun Wu Xie sat across Mo Qing Yuan in his study, with one hand on his wrist, taking his pulse.

  “Your grandfather actually let you come?” Mo Qing Yuan asked with an incredulous tone as he propped his chin with the other hand looking at Jun Wu Xie who was concentrating on his pulse.

  Lately the Royal Family had not been too kind towards Lin Palace, with such strained tension in the air, he was surprised that Jun Xian had allowed Jun Wu Xie to come alone.

  Jun Wu Xie did not look up as she continued on with her diagnosis: “With a prince that is deemed a good for nothing, what’s there to be afraid of.”

  “…………………………” Mo Qing Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly, this little girl’s mouth was really poisonous. He glanced over at the ‘little’ black cat that was curled up on her feet as he recalled everything that happened last night. He involuntarily gulped as he still had lingering fear of that black fur ball as his heart pounded faster.

  “Come to think about it, if I had a strong enough backing and held quite a bit of power, Lin Wang would surely stop you from making any contact with me to avoid arousing any suspicion. However my status now is that of a Crown Prince that’s going to lose his own crown, no smart person would want to have anything to do with me.” He chuckled.

  Lin palace held half of the country’s military might and if they formed close ties with the Crown Prince, at first glance, this was a very powerful alliance.

  However if thought through carefully, it was a sinking ship with two ailing tigers on it.

  “Can you guess… What reason did I tell him that made him consent to your visit?” Mo Qian Yuan looked at her with a pair of bright eyes. Privately, he did not want to call that man Imperial Father.

  Jun Wu Xie ignored him as she continued on what she was doing.

  Mo Qian Yuan continued excitedly: “I told him that I fell in love with you.”

  Jun Wu Xie finally raised her head, but her eyes had not the slightest trace of surprise in them. She just looked at him with a pair of clear eyes.

  “So, you are prepared to let him think that you have caught interest in someone that was discarded by Mo Xuan Fei?”

  “…………………………….” When she said this, he was completely defeated and lost all reason to retort her. Mo Qing Yuan laughed bitterly as he looked at her dumbfoundedly.

  “Do you always speak like that? Do you always speak in such a ruthless manner even to yourself?” Why was she so hard even to herself? Using terms like ‘discarded’ so easily on herself. Mo Qing Yuan felt that his brother was really stupid and the biggest mistake was letting go of Jun Wu Xie.

  The past Jun Wu Xie may not have been that great but the Jun Wu Xie that was sitting across him now was the most intriguing woman he has ever met. Well, more accurately… young maiden.

  A girl that dared to make a prince yield and even forced him to usurp the throne, what kind of guts did she possess?

  “I’m just stating the facts.” She replied.

  Mo Qing Yuan chuckled, shaking his head in exasperation. He really could not read her.

  “During my birthday banquet when I had spoken up for you, all I wanted was to spite him. Who would have known that it’s the perfect cover now?” He chortled as he thought back to the expression that the Emperor had when he had told him about his feelings towards Jun Wu Xie. That look was priceless.

  “The two people that he wants to get rid of most are now paired up, he should be so happy, right? Now he can kill two birds with one stone, won’t that be much easier?” He laughed at the very irony of it all.

  Volume 1

  Chapter 70: “Love (2)”

  “You’re very noisy.” Jun Wu Xie furrowed her brows.

  “……………………..” Mo Qing Yuan’s face stiffened.

  Jun Wu Xie looked up as she retreated her hand from his wrist and happened to meet his gaze.

  “There’s an immense amount of toxins accumulated in your system. You’ve been poisoned for quite a long time, as for your body, I can treat it and have you well again. However, I’m unable to determine the source of the poison. To completely rid yourself from this, you’ll have to find out it and eliminate it to prevent this or else you will be caught up in this mess again.”

  Although this man was nearing death’s door, how come he still had so many thoughts? He had been going at it for almost half a day as he chattered on incessantly.

  “………………” Mo Qian Yuan was rendered speechless once again. This girl had regarded everything he talked about as ‘noise’.

  In the end what was up with her? She was the very person who asked him to seize the throne but she was not interested one bit in how he did it?

  “You…..”

  “How you want to go about it is your problem, I’m only a doctor.” She looked at him with a blank expression.

  Mo Qian Yuan threw his head back in laughter.

  This missy of the Lin Palace was really something! How old was she only? She’s so young but she could be so calm and collected, more than that, her thoughts ran so deep. Yes, she was absolutely right. How he went about it was his own problem. If he succeeded, Lin Palace would be celebrated and hailed as loyal supporters. If he failed, he would be the only one to bear the consequences, he had no relationship between Lin Palace and Jun Wu Xie.

  “Jun Wu Xie, you’re really smart and can be so cruel at the same time.” He laughed wryly.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at him, not easing any of her wrinkled brows.

  “Meow.”

  [Master, he must have misunderstood what you meant! This imbecile…]

  For Little Black, it had been with Wu Xie for the longest time and it understood Wu Xie the most. It very clearly knew that she had no other meaning when she said that. She definitely wasn’t scheming anything like what the idiot Prince was thinking about. All she really meant was that these things would be better handled by the Prince who was more experienced in these matters. Now all that she needed to do most was to get him back in shape so that he could put up a good fight.

  The Crown Prince who had been brought up in the tangled Royal Palace where schemes ran amok so frequently as if having a regular meal, his way of thinking was conditioned to survive in such a treacherous place.

  To simply put it, they were on two totally different wavelengths.

  This little misunderstanding had caused Mo Qian Yuan to have the impression that Jun Wu Xie was a very resourceful and an adept natural-born conspirator for a long, long, time to come in the future.

  Not wanting Mo Qian Yuan to have any further strange thoughts, Jun Wu Xie rebutted: “Stop talking so much nonsense. If you want to live properly, you’ll have to find the source of the poison.”

  Mo Qian Yuan sighed softly:
“Truth be told, when my body was getting weaker by the day, I had also faintly guessed that I may have been poisoned. In fact, only after you asked me last night was when I finally confirmed my suspicion. I do not know the source of the poison as well.” He smiled bitterly, if he knew what the source was, he wouldn’t let himself be in such a dire situation.

  Jun Wu Xie took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it over to him. “You’ve been poisoned by the wheat night flower. Drink this and if you’re in contact with any extract of this flower, you will have a reaction.” To find the source of the poison was child’s play to her as she knew the method. However, she didn’t want to use it herself.

  Because…

  The reaction she mentioned earlier was really too disgusting!

  She definitely did not want to experience it herself.

  Jun Wu Xie convinced Mo Qian Yuan to drink it as he downed the contents of the whole bottle in a few gulps. Immediately after, he got up and started searching the room thoroughly.

  Mo Qian Yuan searched it through once and couldn’t find anything suspicious. He combed through every nick and cranny.

  Nothing was found.

  The always dignified Prince was now in his own quarters sniffing and scurrying about like a rat. This made Jun Wu Xie speechless.

  Should she have told him that the extract of the wheat night flower could not withstand being exposed for an extended period of time and hence he would not be able to find it on all those items he just tried searching?

  Looking at the current Prince who was busy searching through his clothes as he studied each single one of them intently, she decided to keep this to herself for the time being.

  Exercising more would also aid the detoxification process.

  Ah, yes, that’s it.

  Volume 1

  Chapter 71:”Love (3)”

  Mo Qian Yuan almost turned his whole residence upside down as he searched through but yet he could not find anything suspicious. After such intense searching, he could feel the strain and the poison from the wheat night flower had already invaded his system and eroded away his health and stamina. His healthy robust body was now a thing of the past.
