Chapter 122 Affectionate Embrace
He Yue raised her hand and touched the memorial tablet of He Youren, which was written stroke by stroke. She choked up and said, "Dad, Xiaoyue always makes you worry. You treat Xiaoyue so well. Xiaoyue just has the ability to repay you, and you are willing to abandon us. I know you won't watch the bad guys kill people at will, but...but...how painful it must be for you!"
He Yue wiped away her tears and smiled bitterly, "Dad, you are the most powerful and brave hero in Xiaoyue's heart. Xiaoyue is proud of you. There are no cowards in our He family. Don't worry! I will definitely find the murderer, no matter who he is."
The crying of the three people woke up Li Guihua. Li Guihua sat up and saw He Yue and the other two kneeling in front of a mound of earth.
Seeing that there were piles of earth and tablets in that row, Li Guihua crawled to He Youren's grave.
Digging the soil with his hands, he said, "What are you doing? Why did you bury your father in the soil? He was just sleeping, he is not dead yet."
Dazhuang and Xiaozhuang pulled Li Guihua, crying and shouting, "Mom, Mom, don't do this, Mom."
He Yue pulled Li Guihua over and looked at her face to face. "Mom, Dad is dead. He suffered so much before his death. We can't let him go without peace of mind. Dad certainly wouldn't want us to continue grieving. We have to live well with Dad's legacy so that he can be at ease in his reincarnation."
Li Guihua hugged He Yue and cried breathlessly, Dazhuang and Xiaozhuang also hugged them together.
The three of them cried bitterly for a long time, which made County Magistrate Guo and Mo Yiyun sad and shed tears when they heard it.
After helping with the burial, County Magistrate Guo and his men left and went back to send people to investigate the murderer.
Mo Yiyu stayed with He Yue and the others until dark before returning to the city. Everyone returned home with a heavy heart.
After He Yue settled Xiao Quan, Mo Yiyu comforted him for a while before going back.
Mu Nanfeng returned to the city and found Hong Shan first. Hong Shan came to Mu Nanfeng without knowing why.
Mu Nanfeng kicked Hong Shan away. Even though Hong Shan was spitting blood, he immediately crawled to Mu Nanfeng and said, "Your Majesty, calm down!"
Mu Nanfeng no longer had his usual gentle and warm demeanor, and he pinched Hong Shan's neck with a ferocious look on his face.
He lifted him up and said, "Calm down! How can I calm down? I asked you to handle the matter. Is this what you call handling it? What? Killing people is fun, right? Ah! You are so powerful that you dare to wipe out an entire village. It won't be long before you wipe me out too."
Hong Shan begged for mercy in a weak voice, "No, subordinate, I dare not. Yes, they discovered the mine. I had no choice but to kill them."
Mu Nanfeng loosened his grip a little. "Why didn't you tell me yesterday? Do you think you could keep it a secret?"
Hong Shan knelt on the ground, not daring to look up. "It's all my fault. I acted on my own. I deserve to die. When I led people to investigate over there, I found some people secretly mining. I thought I'd just kill them, but one person escaped back to the village. I led people to chase him there, but everyone in the village came out. I had no choice but to kill them all because I was afraid they would go into the city and tell County Magistrate Guo."
Mu Nanfeng held his forehead and said, "Go, immediately prepare evidence to put the blame on Queen Pei. If you can't do it well, you don't have to appear before me anymore."
Hong Shan kowtowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, thank you for your grace. Thank you for your grace. I will definitely not let Your Majesty down."
Mu Nanfeng waved his hand and Hong Shan left quickly. Mu Nanfeng was thinking about how to deal with this matter.
After a while, Guo Yulan knocked on the door with a bowl of soup. "Your Highness, Lan'er heard that you are back. Lan'er specially made soup for you. Please taste it."
Mu Nanfeng immediately regained his gentle demeanor and opened the door. "Miss Guo, please come in. I'm so lucky to have you cook for me!"
Guo Yulan was too embarrassed to look at Mu Nanfeng and said shyly, "Your Majesty is a noble man. I hope you don't despise Lan'er's crude craftsmanship."
Mu Nanfeng smiled and said, "Well, it looks pretty good. It's a little crude."
Guo Yulan blushed and looked at Mu Nanfeng nervously and said, "Then your Highness, please try it. If you like it, Lan'er will make more for you."
Mu Nanfeng picked up the bowl and took a sip. "Hmm, very delicious. I didn't expect Miss Guo's cooking skills are not inferior to the imperial chefs in the palace!"
Guo Yulan was extremely happy. She looked at Mu Nanfeng with deep affection and said, "Your Highness really likes me? Then can Your Highness just call me Lan'er?"
Mu Nanfeng looked at Guo Yulan with deep affection in his eyes. "Lan'er, you are so kind and generous. It would be great if I had someone like Lan'er to help me."
"Lan'er is willing to stay with the prince forever." Guo Yulan said with a blushing face.
Mu Nanfeng was secretly delighted after hearing this. He gently took Guo Yulan's hand and said softly, "Lan'er, I was attracted by your strength and courage the first time I saw you. I hope you can always stay by my side."
At this moment, Guo Yulan's eyes were shining with happiness. She lowered her head shyly and nodded slightly.
Mu Nanfeng looked at the beautiful person in front of him and couldn't help but hold her in his arms. He said softly, "Lan'er, when I finish the things at hand, I will marry you in a grand ceremony."
Guo Yulan leaned in Mu Nanfeng's arms, feeling his warmth, her heart filled with anticipation and sweetness.
Guo Yulan was delighted after hearing the prince's words. She knew that she had finally received the prince's approval and promise.
"Lan'er, don't worry, I will handle everything as soon as possible and make you my princess." Mu Nanfeng gently stroked Lan'er's hair, his eyes full of determination.
Lan'er raised her head and looked at Mu Nanfeng, her eyes full of love and trust. "Your Highness, Lan'er believes in you. No matter how long it takes, Lan'er will wait for you."
The two hugged each other, enjoying the warmth and sweetness of the moment. They seemed to have forgotten everything in the outside world, leaving only each other's breathing and heartbeat.
However, at this moment, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence. Mu Nanfeng let go of Lan'er and frowned slightly.
"Your Highness, I have something important to report." The voice of the guard came from outside the door.
Mu Nanfeng took a deep breath and gave Lan'er an apologetic smile. "Lan'er, I'm going to take care of some business first. Wait for me to come back."
Lan Er nodded, "Your Highness, please go. Business is more important."
Mu Nanfeng turned and left. Lan'er looked at his back and prayed silently in her heart that everything would go well.
Mu Nanfeng followed the guards out of the house, and when he saw that there was no one around, he asked, "What's going on?"
The guard bowed and said, "Your Highness, County Magistrate Guo and his men have found the mine and are on their way back. Doctor He and County Magistrate Guo have a good relationship, so I'm afraid they'll get to the bottom of it. Your Highness, please advise us on what to do next."
Mu Nanfeng waved his hand. "You don't have to do anything for now. Wait for news from Hongshan. Try your best to cooperate with County Magistrate Guo and the others. Report any progress at any time."
"Yes, I understand." The guard bowed and took his leave.
