Chapter 263: Guilt

"Who was the man in black just now? He seemed to hate me very much. It was Ji Yu. It's impossible. You have already seriously injured him."

Su Zimo was contemplating, and really couldn't guess the identity of that person.

"Mo'er, let's go see where those children are first?" Mu Yunxuan knew that there would be a result one day.

The secret guards who followed him secretly would definitely find clues.

The two looked for the voices of the children everywhere, in an underground secret room that had not been closed in time.

Su Zimo and Mu Yunxuan saw that the four children who were captured had fallen to the ground and died. Su Zimo's eyes were full of horror, and a touch of pain passed through her heart. The lives that were still alive just now were gone. The age of these children was about the same as Qi'er, Li'er, and Xin'er, which made her a little unacceptable for a while.

"How could this happen?" Su Zimo exclaimed! With a look of disbelief on their faces, they followed closely. In such a short time, how could he kill these four children in such a short time.

"Mo'er, maybe it wasn't the man just now who killed these four children, but someone else."

"The man just now deliberately blocked us outside so that the people in the secret room could kill these children."

Mu Yunxuan walked over and took the child's hand on the ground and looked at it. The wrist was cut open, obviously for bleeding.

Could it be Jun Lintian? Impossible, the secret guards have been following Jun Lintian and have returned to Haoyue Country. It can't be him. Could it be Ji Yu or Yang Qingqing?

Many speculations flashed through Mu Yunxuan's mind.

Looking back, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Su Zimo with a face full of self-blame, and a touch of discomfort surged into his heart.

"Mo'er, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault."

"If we could be faster, they would be fine. They are about the same age as Qi'er. Their lives haven't started yet, and they are gone just like that."

Su Zimo looked at the bodies of the children with a painful expression, and he felt so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.

"Mo'er, it's useless to blame yourself now. You can only find those people as soon as possible so that those children will not be hurt."

Mu Yunxuan held her hand, wanting to give her more strength to support her. As a mother, he understood her mood.

After nightfall, Su Zimo was not in a good mood. After returning to the palace, she lay on the bed without having dinner.

After Su Qi and Su Li heard what happened from Su Qingjue, the two brothers understood their mother's mood.

The two brothers stayed by the bed, closed their eyes and pretended to be silent.

Mu Yunxuan came in after finishing his work and saw Su Qi and his brother standing quietly, and sighed in his heart.

"Qi'er, Li'er, let's go, Daddy will take you back to rest first."

"Oh!" Su Qi nodded, and the two brothers followed Mu Yunxuan out.

At the moment the door closed, Su Zimo, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes, stared at the closed door for a while, and closed it again.

"Daddy, mom is so cruel. She never kills children. Seeing four children die in front of her this time, she must feel very guilty."

Back in the room, Su Qi sat on the bed, soaking her feet in warm water, washing them clumsily.

"It's okay. Your mom will be fine after a night."

Mu Yunxuan dried Su Qi's feet and touched the warm little feet. His eyebrows relaxed.

He dried Su Li's feet next to him. For Mu Yunxuan, it was the first time he did such a thing, but he did it not clumsily.

These two run outside all day long, and their feet are still white and tender.

"Thank you, daddy!" Su Li tilted his head to look at Mu Yunxuan. At this time, his always serious little face had a bit of innocence. Mu Yunxuan lifted his feet onto the bed and patted him with a smile: "We are a family, what is there to thank? Daddy should thank Li'er for accepting Daddy so quickly."

"That's because Daddy did a good job!"

Su Li didn't say much, but he was just right.

"Daddy is good! He's just henpecked."

Mu Yunxuan smiled and felt a little upset about Su Qi's words.

"Qi'er, Daddy is not afraid of your mother, but he gives in to her."

"Hehe! Qi'er, are you kidding? Daddy should give in to mother, but mother is very hard."

Su Qi changed the subject and said that his mother was more important, and Daddy gave in to mother because he loved her the most.

"You! You are a little devil, wouldn't Daddy know your little thoughts?" Mu Yunxuan tickled Su Qi's soles, Su Qi was ticklish and giggled non-stop.

"Okay! Daddy is not afraid of mother, Qi'er will never say such things again." Su Qi said with a breathless laugh.

Seeing his son patting his chest in relief, Mu Yunxuan laughed, and then said solemnly: "Don't say such things in the future."

Su Qi nodded obediently: "No, no, Daddy, Qi'er will never let Daddy and Mom worry again. Qi'er knows that Mom has forgiven Qi'er this time, and Qi'er will never do it again."

Mu Yunxuan looked at him softly. His two sons were really sensible.

The father and his two sons played on the bed for a long time, until the two brothers were sleepy, and Mu Yunxuan got up and left.

After returning to Ziyang Palace where Su Zimo lived, Mu Yunxuan washed up and lay down on the bed.

Hugging Su Zimo, who still had her eyes closed.

Su Zimo moved her body, buried her whole body in his arms, and said nothing.

"Mo'er, are you still blaming yourself?" Mu Yunxuan patted her back gently.

"I'm not blaming myself, but I'm heartbroken."

Su Zimo said calmly that if she had been a step faster, those children would not have died.

Mu Yunxuan looked down at her. After all, Moer still felt guilty.

In Yisu Palace, Su Qi slowly stretched his head out of the quilt.

Looking around, the night was quiet. Through the window, the sky was dotted with stars, twinkling beautifully.

"Brother." Su Qi pushed Su Li who was already asleep.

Su Li reluctantly opened his eyes and frowned involuntarily.

"What are you doing?"

"Brother, Qi'er and my uncle have agreed to catch a thief tonight. Do you want to go with them?"

Su Li stood up suddenly and said unhappily: "You are crazy. Who just made a bold promise in front of Daddy that he would not let Daddy and Mommy worry? You said this and then the wind blew it away."

"Brother, Qi'er did say that he would not let Daddy and Mommy worry. He did it without Daddy and Mommy knowing. Daddy is coaxing Mommy now. Let's go out quietly and come back before Mommy and Daddy find out. My uncle is waiting for us outside?"

Su Qi whispered, constantly looking outside, afraid that someone would hear him.

"I won't go. If you want to go, go by yourself. Don't you dislike going out to feed mosquitoes at night?" Su Li refused without even thinking about it.

"Brother, your cultivation is better than mine and my uncle. With you, Qi'er and my uncle will feel safe. Look at mother, how sad she is for those dead children? Can you bear to see mother so sad?"

Su Qi used mother as a trump card. Mother is the person that brother cares about the most, and brother is the person who will feel distressed even when mother frowns.

Su Li frowned slightly when he heard it, and thought of mother's expression tonight, and his heart was moved.

Su Qi saw his brother's expression and felt that there was a chance, so he continued, "Brother, if you go with me, it will be twice the result with half the effort."

"Let's go, we must come back before mother finds out." Su Li lifted the quilt, and he never dragged his feet on things that he had decided.

At a glance, Su Qi smiled cunningly, and he knew that his brother would definitely agree to move out his mother.

In this world, only his brother can empathize with his mother's pain. As for his father, he thought so too, but he hadn't seen it yet.

The two brothers arranged everything in the room and soon met at the place agreed with Nalan Yi.

As soon as they met, Nalan Yi took them out of the palace quickly and ran to the place where Nalan Yi stepped well during the day.

Xingyue Kingdom, even in the dark, the palace of Xingyue Kingdom looks more majestic and solemn.

Green tiles and red bricks, red pillars and golden beams, carved beams and painted rafters, all the decorations are extremely luxurious. Xingyue Kingdom is the second richest country after Haoyue Kingdom.

At the entrance of the Prince's Palace, there are two lifelike stone lions on both sides, and two more red pillars that can only be surrounded by two people, with lifelike flying dragons carved on them.

Walking in, the decoration is unique and elegant, giving people a refreshing feeling. It is the most unique place in the entire palace. Usually, except for Murong Shaofeng and the people of the Prince's Palace, no one else can enter without permission.

In the main hall, the floor paved with fine white jade shone with a warm glow under the moonlight, and the unique and gorgeous decorations were pleasing to the eye.

In front of the jade case, Murong Shaofeng, wearing a white robe, quietly reviewed the official documents. His every move was elegant and noble.

Zhu Yan stood aside and waited quietly.

When Murong Shaofeng put down his pen elegantly, Zhu Yan relaxed.

"Go ahead!" These two simple words seemed to describe his mood at the moment.

Zhu Yan pursed his lips. Since His Highness came back from Haoyue Emperor, he has not smiled at all. Except for a pair of elegant eyes like stars and a little missing, his handsome face was expressionless.

"Your Highness, the Princess of Lixia has been asking to see Your Highness."

"I don't want to hear this."

The elegant voice was calm!

Zhu Yan's expression tightened and he clenched his fingers. Recently, he avoided mentioning Su Zimo's affairs.

"Your Highness, the secret guards have sent a message that the Xingyue Kingdom will hold a ceremony to confer the title in three days."
