On the topic of Wei Yi, everyone suddenly perked up.

　　"Although Young Master Wei isn't quite the same as the rest of us, he is adorable in his own way. Having him along on the journey has made us all very merry."

　　"Exactly. But Teacher Ji didn't bring Young Master Wei this time. Great, now the journey will be really boring."

　　The bodyguards chatted among themselves, saying this and that.

　　Lang Po heard everything. He turned around and glared at them. "Do you not want your tongues anymore?" They suddenly stopped. They all knew that Lang Po was a coa.r.s.e fellow. He normally looked quite fierce and strict and Jing Rong's temper more or less had rubbed off on him. But deep down, he was actually quite an amicable person and was quite easy going with his subordinates. However, because of this sudden shout, they couldn't help but feel some fear in their hearts and could only obediently stand guard next to the carriage.

　　Just then, Mo Ruo lifted the curtain of the carriage and swept his gaze over the guards. "If you really miss Wei Yi, why don't you just send some people back to Jinjiang and bring him here?"

　　"Master Mo, stop making fun of us. Teacher Ji's instructions are our Prince's instructions. He already said to leave him at the Wei residence. If we bring him here then the prince will definitely have our heads."

　　Mo Ruo continued to add fuel to the fire, "Your Prince isn't a demon that kills without batting an eyelid, what are you scared of?"

　　They weren't stupid, they knew that rascal Mo Ruo was trying to entice them to step on a landmine. Then, someone said, "Master Mo, stop trying to get us in trouble. It looks like it's you who misses Master Wei. I heard that in the capital, he always stayed at your Yuhua Pavillion. In addition, it's you who brought him on this trip to Yufu. So the one who misses him is really you!"

　　What a joke! Mo Ruo pointed at every one of the guards, "All of you gossip mongers, sooner or later I'll stick some needles into you and make you mute." They all roared with laughter.

　　Mo Ruo pulled his head back into the carriage and saw that Tang Si was reading a book! Yes, a book. She wasn't reading incomprehensible cla.s.sics, but rather medical books. In the past few days, she kept pestering Mo Ruo to teach her medicine. Mo Ruo wasn't made of steel. He finally couldn't take it anymore and threw some basic medical books at her so that she would focus on them rather than bother him. Therefore, Tang Si wasn't her previous noisy self on this journey. On the contrary, she seemed to have changed into a new person and was reading quietly. Now her appearance really did seem like that of a gentle lady!

　　Mo Ruo accidentally glanced at her. At this moment, he felt that Tang Si somewhat resembled Kong Yu. The same gentle side profile, the same tall nose bridge, even the way they looked while quietly reading a book was so similar! At that instant, in some place deep down inside, his frozen heart had unexpectedly begun to thaw.
