My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Mei Xueer turned her head and asked, "Master Li also likes this?"

Li Mo lowered his eyes and looked at Mei Xueer, who was a head shorter than him. "I didn't like it at first, but since my Xueer liked it, I tried it. It's really delicious."

"My two distinguished guests, we have launched a new dish, braised pork intestines in vinegar. Let's try it today." Ah Zi asked after the two of them sat down in the private room.

"Okay!" Li Mo agreed as he poured tea for Mei Xueer, "For the rest, just pick the ones Miss Mei likes."

After Ah Zi left, Li Mo pulled his chair closer to Mei Xueer, "My Xueer, have you ever thought about living in the Prime Minister's Mansion for the rest of your life?"

"Why not?" Mei Xueer picked up the teacup and took a sip, then moved away from him without saying a word.

"Of course there's nothing wrong with that." Li Mo was silent for a moment, then moved closer and said, "Xue'er's name has the word 'snow' in it, do you like snow?"

"It's okay... But nothing is absolute. Snow may be very beautiful in the eyes of the rich and powerful, but for the poor who have no clothes to wear and no food to eat, snow only brings severe cold or even death."

Li Mo was stunned, his eyes darkened, and he seemed to be deeply touched by this: "Xue'er is right. Even if it is the same person, with different moods and people around him, he may feel very differently about the same thing."

"That's exactly the truth. Master Li is a very insightful person."

"Clear?" Li Mo smiled bitterly. "Yeah, if I'm not clear, what else can I do? How can a person's life be smooth sailing?"

"From what you said, it seems like you've been through a lot?" Mei Xueer looked at him with an inquiring look.

Li Mo smiled instantly: "Xue'er is interested in me?"

Mei Xueer: "Just curious. It's funny, you saved me many times, but I don't know who you are."

"I'm from Changguo." Li Mo responded immediately, "I came to the capital of Zhenguo just to discuss some business. Now I have almost done what I need to do. I will go back to Changguo in a few days and I will probably be back soon."

Li Mo changed his posture, crossing one leg over the other, tapping the tabletop with his bony fingertips. "Xue'er is still young. If you get bored staying in the capital, would you like to go to Changguo with me to see the snow-capped mountains there? I'm sure Xue'er will like the rolling snow-capped mountains that are covered with snow all year round."

Mei Xueer suddenly remembered that when she searched for Li Mo on the Internet before, Baidu Encyclopedia said, "There are rumors in the martial arts world that he is the master of Wangyou Valley (to be verified)."

The Forget-Sorrow Valley is a mysterious valley that only exists in rumors. It is located in the snow-capped mountains north of Changguo. The exact location is unknown, and no outsider has ever found the entrance to the valley, so no one knows what is going on in the valley.

It is rumored that Wangyou Valley is in heaven, and there is a pack of wolves in the valley that have cultivated into spirits.

Could this mysterious man in front of me be the mysterious master of Wangyou Valley?

She smiled slightly, "Although I am divorced, I am still a woman after all. Do you think it is appropriate for me to go to Changguo with you?"

Li Mo stopped tapping the table. "I originally thought that Xue'er was different from other women and wouldn't care about these ridiculous worldly views."

He paused, then continued, "Or maybe Xue'er is still thinking about Cui Hongjing, so she can't think about anyone else?"

Mei Xueer glanced at him calmly without saying anything, then took a sip of tea and looked at him again before changing the subject, saying slowly, "I heard that there is a Forget-Sorrow Valley in Changguo, hidden in the snow-capped mountains."

"I don't want to hide it from Xue'er. In fact, I live in Wangyou Valley. It's just..." Li Mo looked lost and sad. He suppressed his usual cynicism. His eyes became a little empty, as if his gaze penetrated the prosperous capital of Dazhen and looked at the continuous snow-capped mountains, looking at the world that belonged to him.

"Young Master, are you the master of Forget-Sorrow Valley?" Mei Xueer continued to test.

Li Mo said nothing more, as if it was a very unpleasant memory and he didn't want to recall it again.

Seeing this, Mei Xueer stopped asking questions.

"Miss Mei, Mr. Li, would you like to try our new dishes?" A Zi's voice came from outside the door at the right time.

The two of them ate by themselves, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

"Du Zheng's poison..." Suddenly, the two said in unison.

Li Mo smiled awkwardly, "You speak first."

Mei Xueer: "Do you know Wu Nian?"

"The last great witch doctor of Nanyue?"

"Ah."

Li Mo raised his eyes and put down his chopsticks. "I know, but I heard that he died seventeen years ago, on the day when the soldiers of the Zhen Kingdom attacked the palace of the King of Nanyue."

"Dead?" Mei Xueer frowned, "Why did I hear that he just disappeared?"

"He is dead!" Li Mo was sure. "When the battlefield was being cleaned up, someone saw it with their own eyes. They dug a big pit on the spot and buried him together with the other people who died that day."

Mei Xueer: "If he had died long ago, then who poisoned Du Zheng? Wu Nian was still young at the time and had no direct disciples."

Li Mo thought for a moment, "I have thought about this question before. But Wu Nian is indeed dead. Perhaps he secretly passed the poison to other people before he died... I know that the Nanyue royal family would not allow this, but as long as there are people, anything is possible."

That's true.

Li Mo was so sure that Wu Nian was dead, it seemed to be true. The only possibility was that, as he said, Wu Nian had a successor.

"Did Wu Nian have any disciples during his lifetime? You can check them one by one." Mei Xueer said again.

Li Mo shook his head: "It can be said that the entire Nanyue Witch Doctor Department is composed of hundreds of disciples of the Great Witch Doctor. After the fall of Nanyue, these people have either died or disappeared. How can we find out? Moreover, if he wants to risk his family's destruction and pass on the witchcraft to others privately, it may not be passed to the people in the Witch Doctor Department."

Mei Xueer's expression darkened. She knew that Li Mo was right and there was indeed no way to check it out.

"Why is Xue'er so concerned about this?" Li Mo squinted his fox eyes and looked at her.

Mei Xueer said calmly: "As a doctor, I just want to save people. That's all. Don't think too much."

Li Mo smiled and gave her a piece of vinegar-fried pig intestines. "This is really good."

"Thank you!" Mei Xueer swallowed the pig intestines, and the two were silent again for a while.

"I can wait." Li Mo said suddenly.

Mei Xueer: "Ah? ... Wait, what are you waiting for?"

Li Mo stared at her with a fiery gaze, "I'll wait for you to say yes. I'll wait for you to go with me to Wangyou Valley and see the snow-capped mountains there. No matter how long it takes, I can wait."

Is this a confession? Mei Xueer's cheeks blushed slightly.

This child seems like he doesn't understand what I'm saying and insists on changing the subject to this.

She lowered her head and ate her rice haphazardly to hide her inner panic.

Yes, she was a little flustered.

She was a little panicked when such a handsome man who had saved her life many times said he was willing to wait for her.

She asked herself in her heart: If I had met Li Mo when I first came to this world, would I be attracted to him?

If there was no Dog Prince, would I follow him?

She didn't dare look up at him.

Li Mo's eyes were still burning, "Xue'er, is there really no room for anyone else in your heart?"

"I, I haven't thought about these things..." She suddenly raised her head and met his gaze. "In fact, I didn't know who you were before, but for so long, I have always regarded you as a trustworthy friend, otherwise we wouldn't be sitting here now. But, we are just friends."

"Xue'er, are you blaming me for hiding too much from you?" Li Mo sighed and said quietly, "Some things would be dangerous if you knew more now...Xue'er, you just need to understand that no matter what, I will not hurt you. Do you believe it?"

Mei Xueer nodded and took another bite of the vegetable.

Li Mo leaned back against the back of his chair, looked downstairs through the window, and said, "Everyone in this world has an unknown story... For example, the owner of this Pig Intestine Restaurant, the man named Qiu Shang, does Xue'er know him?"

Mei Xueer was relieved to see that she finally stopped dwelling on the topic of waiting. "Do you know this Qiu Shang?"

Li Mo: "Of course I asked around. Anyone with a little bit of common sense would have expected that it's impossible for someone to come here specifically to eat pig intestines. But Qiu Shang opened such a restaurant in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital and spent so much money on decoration. Why do you think that is?"

"why?"

"Xue'er, why don't you think about it, in this capital, is there anyone who likes to eat pig intestines?"
