Du Xiaoyue said, "The one in the carriage is Sister Qing Lian. Why did He Shen force her to stay? I'll go and see."

Mo Li said, "Okay, I'll go too."

The two of them started to catch up. Fortunately, He Shen was not walking very fast, so they caught up with him quickly.

Mo Li said, "Master He, please stay."

"Get in the sedan chair, get in the sedan chair." Heshen ordered, and soon his troops stopped.

He Shen stepped out of the sedan chair and said, "Master Mo, is there anything wrong?"

Mo Li said, "Is that Miss Su Qinglian Su in the carriage?"

He Shen was truly shocked and asked, "How did you know?"

Mo Li said, "There's nothing I don't know. Didn't the Emperor give Su Qinglian to me before? How did you take her away again? Return her to me now. Do you think you can get away with it by fabricating the illusion that Su Qinglian is missing? Believe it or not, I'll report you to the Emperor."

He Shen said with a sad face: "Okay, okay, okay, I really can't hide anything from you. I will return Su Qinglian to you, okay? Please don't go to the emperor to report me, I can't bear it."

He then returned Su Qinglian to Mo Li.

……

Forbidden City.

The palace is grand and magnificent.

Several guards looked solemnly into the distance.

"Send Mo Li to the emperor for an audience." Someone shouted loudly.

Mo Li walked in quickly, followed by Du Xiaoyue. Mo Li knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, Mo Li, pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

Du Xiaoyue also knelt down and saluted, saying, "Long live the emperor."

Emperor Gai Zhang said: "Get up, get up, get up."

Mo Li thanked the emperor and stood up with Du Xiaoyue.

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "I summoned Mo Li today, why did Xiao Yue come in?"

Du Xiaoyue stepped forward and said, "I miss the emperor. I know he must be very bored after returning to the palace. He summoned Lord Mo to see him just to relieve his boredom. I'm the best at relieving boredom, so I came along."

Emperor Gai Zhang stepped down from the dragon throne, walked up to the two of them, smiled, and said, "Well said, it will relieve my boredom. I think the more I relieve myself, the more bored I become."

After saying that, he looked at Mo Li and called his name.

Mo Li said, "I'm here."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "The Changchun Pavilion in my Old Summer Palace is almost finished. Please write a poem on the theme of Old Summer Palace to cheer me up."

Mo Li said, "In reply to the emperor, I will give up."

Emperor Gai Zhang was stunned when he heard this and said, "Quitted? I didn't bring my pipe with me today. Mo Dayanpi quit smoking, it wasn't easy. By the way, where's Ji Xiaolan?"

Mo Li said, "Ji Xiaolan, I was drinking with him yesterday. But Your Majesty, I have something to tell you. I'm not quitting smoking, I'm quitting poetry."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Gai Zhang was stunned again and said, "Abstain from poetry? What does it mean to abstain from poetry?"

Mo Li said, "Uh... Ever since my poems were criticized to pieces in Hangzhou, I've felt so ashamed of myself that I haven't written any more poems since then."

Hehehe...

Upon hearing this, Emperor Gai Zhang laughed heartily and said, "When did the great scholar Mo become so modest? Everyone knows that the only person in the world who can challenge me is Mo Li."

Du Xiaoyue said, "Your Majesty, how could you forget about Ji Xiaolan? He was also very talented. I heard he's still working at the Sikuguan to compile the Complete Library."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Oh, oh, oh... I almost forgot about Ji Xiaolan. But then again, it was I who asked him to go and compile the Siku Quanshu. Why, Mo Li, do you want to go too?"

Mo Li quickly shook his head and said, "I can't do this."
