Wen Qingcheng and Bai Wei were busy in Changchun Courtyard when Steward Liu came trotting over to say that the third prince had arrived.

"Why is the Third Prince here again? The Crown Prince has returned today. Let him meet him later. I don't want to see him." Wen Qingcheng said while doing the work at hand.

"Oh, my dear aunt, the Third Prince came all the way to see you, and asked him to wait for the Crown Prince there. This must be a joke." Steward Liu came running over and has just caught his breath.

"Miss, the third prince is coming in." Bai Wei saw Mo Lianyi and his men coming in from the window.

Although the He family's guards looked ferocious, they did not dare to stop the Third Prince.

Wen Qingcheng had no choice. If she didn't go out, Mo Lianyi would be able to go straight into her laboratory. She had to go out and block him outside.

Mo Lianyi walked into Changchun Court with several guards, and the attendant behind him was holding a brocade box. Today, Mo Lianyi was dressed in white, wearing a cloak with white fox fur trim, with a gentle smile on his face, looking like a banished immortal. But Wen Qingcheng knew his character, and after how he treated her yesterday, seeing Mo Lianyi today only made her feel extremely disgusted.

"Cheng'er, this is a new kingfisher pearl hairpin made by the palace's craftsmanship room. Do you like it?" Mo Lianyi took the brocade box from the servant, opened it, and showed it to Wen Qingcheng.

Wen Qingcheng was concerned about his identity and did not confront him directly. She said in a cold voice: "This requires killing a lot of kingfishers. They are too expensive. I can't afford it."

Mo Lianyi was a little surprised that there was a woman who could refuse such precious jewelry. He remembered that he gave a kingfisher hairpin to Zhang Liangdi in his palace last year, and she was very happy.

"If I can win a beautiful woman's smile, killing dozens of birds is nothing. This little bit of jade will definitely look good on Cheng'er's head."

Wen Qingcheng had been blocking the door, with no intention of inviting Mo Lianyi in. She refused coldly, "I dare not accept it, please take it back, Your Highness."

Manager Liu standing by was sweating profusely due to nervousness. How could Pharmacist Wen dare to treat the Third Prince in this way?

Mo Lianyi narrowed his eyes slightly. In front of so many people, Wen Qingcheng had been keeping a cold face and rejected him. How could a woman be as arrogant as her? Mo Lianyi couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he still had a gentle smile on his face, looking calm and composed.

"Just be indifferent, but when you become my concubine, you will look forward to my favor every day. I will make you kneel down and beg me!" Mo Lianyi secretly swore in his heart that he would conquer Wen Qingcheng.

"It's just a piece of jewelry. Why does Miss Wen have to be so repulsive?"

"Third Prince, I really cannot accept this jewelry. Bai Wei, go and see if the prince has gotten up. Please ask the prince to come over immediately and don't neglect the Third Prince."

Wen Qingcheng's words also surprised Manager Liu. Could it be that Pharmacist Wen and the prince were already living together? The people of the He family had long known that Mo Jinghong and Wen Qingcheng had a close relationship, so they were not surprised. However, Wen Qingcheng was really brave to say it so vividly in front of the Third Prince in public.

"Yes, young lady." Bai Wei excused herself.

Mo Lianyi didn't care about her relationship with Mo Jinghong. He just wanted to snatch her from Mo Jinghong. Wen Qingcheng was just a prey he had set his eyes on. But when Wen Qingcheng said this, Mo Lianyi still felt a surge of jealousy for no reason. Why did Mo Jinghong have the status or martial arts to compare with him? He was just a dog of the prince, a dog!

Even if Mo Lianyi was good at pretending, his face darkened and a violent aura spread out. Wen Qingcheng saw that he was angry, but it didn't matter. She was not afraid of him. It would be better if he really hated her, rather than pestering her every day.

However, in just a moment, Mo Lianyi suppressed the anger in his heart. Feeling the tense atmosphere around him ease, Mo Lianyi smiled warmly, "Cheng'er, won't you invite me in to sit down?"

Mo Jinghong heard from the shadow guard that Mo Lianyi was here again, so he ran all the way to He's house with his light kung fu skills. He happened to meet Bai Wei who was looking for him, and the three of them went straight to Changchun Courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Mo Lianyi talking to his little girl in a flattering manner, and his face turned blue and black with anger. He didn't go to the palace to look for him first, but he dared to come to his house and called his little girl Cheng'er affectionately. Was he calling her Cheng'er too!

"Mo Lianyi, you still dare to come!" Mo Jinghong said angrily.

Mo Lianyi turned around and saw Mo Jinghong. He was surprised for a moment, but then he understood. Yesterday, he took Wen Qingcheng away and injured his guards. He rushed back from the Yanshan camp overnight. He moved quickly enough.

Although they had been fighting overtly and covertly in the past, they had been able to get by on face. Mo Lianyi and Mo Jinghong were the same age, but Mo Lianyi was born older and had a more noble status than Mo Jinghong. So, usually, Mo Jinghong would call him "Third Brother" when they saw each other. Today, he shouted at him with both his full name, probably because he was angry.

Mo Lianyi just liked to see Mo Jinghong getting angry. The more he lost his temper, the more flaws he would reveal, and he would be able to catch him. "Brother Hong, you're here to see Cheng'er too?" Mo Lianyi said with a smile.

"Shut up! You're trying to poach my people." Mo Jinghong looked at Mo Lianyi sternly.

"How can you say I'm poaching her? I'm not trying to hire her with a large sum of money. I just really want to be friends with Cheng'er. Could it be that Cheng'er is your Crown Prince's Consort? Or a concubine in the Prince Qin's mansion?"

Mo Jinghong was choked by his words, and a surge of anger filled his chest. His Cheng'er hadn't agreed to be with him yet, let alone marriage. It seemed that Mo Lianyi had already investigated everything. What Mo Lianyi meant was that he didn't even have the qualifications to be with Wen Qingcheng, even if he was jealous.

Mo Jinghong's face turned blue and black, and he suddenly raised his hand to grab Mo Lianyi's shoulder. Mo Lianyi turned around and easily flicked his sleeves, dissolving some of Mo Jinghong's internal force. However, Mo Jinghong had just exerted all his strength, and Mo Lianyi still felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Suddenly, a violent energy gathered in his chest, and he quickly gathered his energy and raised his palm to slap out.

Mo Jinghong reacted very quickly and met the attack with a palm. Manager Liu and the others were forced to take several steps back by the powerful force. The next second, the floor tiles under their feet began to crack, and the rockery, flowers and trees in the surrounding yard were all affected by the powerful internal force of the two men. The rocks shattered and billowed dust.

Wen Qingcheng was shocked. She knew that Mo Jinghong was a master of martial arts, but she didn't expect his internal strength to be so strong.

Both of them took two steps back to steady themselves. Wen Qingcheng ran forward and held Mo Jinghong's arm. A Falcon and Mo Lianyi's guards also drew their swords, waiting for their master's order.

"Brother Mo, how are you?" Wen Qingcheng asked anxiously.

Mo Jinghong glanced at Wen Qingcheng, afraid that she was frightened, and comforted her in a deep voice: "I'm fine."

Mo Lianyi stood firm, feeling the blood surging in his chest. He didn't expect Mo Jinghong's kung fu to be so profound. Wouldn't Mo Lianche be even more amazing? Mo Lianyi looked at Mo Jinghong with some appreciation and affirmation in his eyes. Unfortunately, Mo Jinghong was not in his camp, and the two were destined to be enemies.
