Chapter 257 All of this was for her?
Chu Yueli felt a headache coming on.
My temples were throbbing slightly.
What's there to pity? The Great Demon King only knows how to play the victim; in reality, he's a jackal who eats people without spitting out the bones.
The eldest brother is just overflowing with compassion, which is why he feels sorry for the Great Demon King.
King Mo is pitiful? Nobody would believe it if you told them.
The carriage soon stopped at the back gate of the Mo Prince's mansion, but Chu Yueli suddenly said, "Go to the main gate."
"The main gate?" Chu Xiaohe looked astonished. Going to see King Mo at night through the main gate? Aren't you afraid of being criticized?
"I am now the deputy commander of the Dragon Guard. This matter concerns the safety of Prince Mo. I have nothing to fear from others' gossip if I want to discuss this with the prince openly and aboveboard."
So their carriage indeed stopped at the main gate of the Mo Prince's Mansion.
Chu Yue Li stepped down from the carriage openly and naturally, entering through the main gate.
Everything was so open and honest.
But after she entered the room, the guy said a few words to her, and that openness vanished instantly.
"Are you going to see that bastard, that's why you haven't had time to come see me? Ali, you're so biased, I'm going to complain to the Duke!"
Liu Yun almost knelt down before him!
Before he could collapse to his knees, Jing Lei grabbed him and threw him outside.
The door was closed, shutting Jing Lei out as well.
Chu Yueli glanced at Lu Beimo indifferently before putting down the medicine box.
"Does Your Highness wish to have me take your pulse?"
"You can even cure diseases?" Lu Beimo found it somewhat intriguing.
"Didn't Your Highness send someone to investigate my past?" Chu Yueli glanced at him, somewhat annoyed.
Lu Beimo snorted: "I didn't even know you were a top expert. You know medicine, how could I possibly find out? Did you learn it in the Southern Frontier?"
When Chu Yueli was a child, she would go to Southern Xinjiang to stay for a period of time every year, and each stay would last at least three months.
Later, she followed Chu Xiaohe on his expedition, and the time she spent in the southern border region was shorter, but whenever she had the chance, she would go back to her maternal grandfather's house for a short stay.
As for the Ming family of Southern Xinjiang, they were an entity that his people could not approach to investigate.
It's not that Sihai is particularly powerful, but rather that several reclusive masters live in the Ming Mansion, making it impossible for spies to get close.
Moreover, those were not the areas Lu Beimo was investigating. There was no need to get so entangled in her maternal grandfather's residence; it would only leave a bad impression on him.
Therefore, Lu Beimo basically neither investigated, inquired about, nor touched upon Chu Yueli's affairs in the Southern Frontier.
Chu Yueli walked to the bedside, and Lu Beimo immediately reached out his hand, even rolling up his sleeves, taking the initiative.
Chu Yueli was somewhat amused and exasperated, but her face remained largely expressionless: "Your Highness, you look to be in good spirits. Is it really necessary to take your pulse?"
"My spirits naturally lifted when you came," Lu Beimo replied matter-of-factly.
Chu Yueli glanced at him before placing her long fingers on his wrist pulse point. As she took his pulse, she said, "Why have I heard that Your Highness is a man of few words, cold and distant to everyone? Is the Your Highness before me truly the Prince of Mo?"
These words made Lu Beimo sigh, seemingly quite helpless.
"Ah Li." He lowered his eyes and looked at Chu Yue Li's fair and delicate face. These words were true: "You are so indifferent to me. If even I am sparing with my words, then we can't get along."
Chu Yueli was taken aback, looked up, and her gaze inadvertently met the depths of his eyes.
He was serious when he said that.
He was a man who was used to being aloof and unfathomable, but in order to get along with her, he tried his best to be a cheerful man.
Was all of this for her?
