Su Qinglian was stunned when she heard this. She really didn't understand Mo Li. She just listened to what her father said and arbitrarily thought that Mo Li was a talented but immoral person.

She wondered if she had really misunderstood him.

He raised his head and said, "Master Mo, you..."

Mo Li said, "That's all I have to say. The people will naturally know what kind of person Mo Li is."

Su Qinglian was stunned again.

I wondered if he really was a man of talent and virtue?

Thinking of something, he said, "Your Excellency has traveled thousands of miles to the border. Although it is your own fault, it is related to you after all. Here is a little gift from me. Please take it with you for emergency use." Then he took out a small bag.

Mo Li said, "It's rare that you are so filial, so I will accept it." He took the small package with a smile.

Su Qinglian smiled and said, "Lord Mo, aren't you afraid that I will report you to the Emperor and accuse you of plundering by trickery?"

Mo Li smiled and said, "How could that be, Miss Su? You are not a bad person by nature. Besides, it's just a small token of my appreciation. What's the harm in accepting it? The Emperor won't punish me for such a small matter."

Su Qinglian said, "That's true."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Mo Li said, "Miss Su, we'll meet again if we're lucky."

Su Qinglian nodded, feeling a little reluctant to part with this "talented but unvirtuous" person.

……

The military camp.

The patrol is on patrol.

"Strange, really strange. This is just a minor setback in the army. How could the emperor know about this thousands of miles away and even issue an imperial edict to reprimand me?"

Heshen walked back and forth in the tent, talking to himself.

"Who leaked it? Who leaked it? I must find him."

Just as he finished speaking, two military supervisors walked in.

Du Xiaoyue said, "Oh, you and the adults, taking a walk so early in the morning?"

He Shen said, "Oh, I was just taking a walk. How could I have the leisure time? The emperor has issued a decree, reprimanding me."

Mo Chou said, "Oh, where is the emperor's handwritten edict?" and walked over.

He Shen pointed and said, "It's on the table, please take a look."

Du Xiaoyue also came over.

She knew she couldn't read, so after picking it up, she asked Mochou, "No, what are these words?"

He Shen looked anxious and said, "Oh, didn't you hear the word '朕' at the end? The emperor calls himself '朕'."

Du Xiaoyue showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and read out, "If you... don't... obey... my... orders... you will... undermine... my... military... prestige... and... you..."

Mo Chou interrupted her and said, "It's not you, it's Er. It means the same thing as you and me."

Du Xiaoyue complained: "It's really awkward, just say it. Considering... your... first... offense... is not... right..."

Mo Chou interrupted her again, "It's not Zi, it's Yu."

Du Xiaoyue uttered an "oh" and said, "I won't pursue the matter. If you do it again... I know everything below."

Mo Chou hummed.

Du Xiaoyue continued, "Be careful of your dog head, I order you to do so."

Mo Chou said, "Right, if you put them together you'll understand."

Du Xiaoyue turned around and said to Heshen, "Okay, listen. You disobeyed my orders and undermined my military prestige. Considering this is your first offense, I will not pursue you. If you do it again, watch out for your dog head. I order you to do this. Hey, Heshen, why don't you..."

He Shen interrupted her, gesticulating and saying, "Alright, stop it. I'm upset."

Mo Chou said, "Hey, who told you to come in here just to get some credit?"

He Shen suddenly understood something, looked at Du Xiaoyue, and said, "Xiaoyue, it was probably you who leaked it, right?"

Du Xiaoyue pretended to be angry and said, "Hey, Heshen, you are wrongly accusing a good person. You clearly know that I can't write a few words, what can I give in return?"
