Mo Jiuye did not know that his cooking skills were criticized by his elder brother. He was still carefully preparing breakfast there.
Half an hour later, Sixth Elder Brother, who was sleeping soundly, woke up too. As soon as he came out of the room, he smelled a scent of delicious food.
"Fifth Elder Brother, I haven't eaten the meals you cooked for a long time. Your cooking skills seem to have improved."
Fifth Elder Brother stood in the yard with an embarrassed look on his face.
"It's not me who cooked this meal, it's Ninth Younger Brother."
When he lost his memory, he lived alone for so long, especially in the haunted house under the West Ridge Village, he had always been self-reliant. He thought he was the best cook among the brothers.
He didn't know when Ninth Younger Brother had attained such skills, which immediately surpassed him.
When Sixth Elder Brother heard that the fragrance came from Ninth Younger Brother's hands, he also felt incredible.
In fact, Mo Jiuye was able to make such a tasty breakfast all thanks to the seasonings his wife had brought him.
He Zhiran thought that with the brothers rushing to the capital city, they would inevitably eat in the open air and spend nights in the wild, passing through jungles or high mountains. So she put some seasonings in small bottles for Mo Jiuye to bring.
As a result, the brothers were in a hurry on the road and didn't have the heart to go hunting. These seasonings were not used up, and now they have become the capital for Mo Jiuye's excellent cooking skills.
The door of the kitchen opened.
"Fifth Elder Brother, Sixth Elder Brother, breakfast is ready."
Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother looked at each other and rushed into the kitchen like a gust of smoke.
In fact, with such ingredients, Mo Jiuye couldn't prepare any big meals either, just white rice porridge and a dish of radish pickles with some salted meat added.
Since He Zhiran joined the Mo family, they had delicious food every day. Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother were used to that taste.
After travelling on the road for so long, they had always eaten casually. Missing the taste of home cooking was one reason. More importantly, today's delicious breakfast was made by Ninth Younger Brother.
If Fifth Elder Brother hadn't seen Mo Jiuye make breakfast with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Ninth Younger Brother had such cooking skills.
How could Mo Jiuye not understand what was on his brothers' minds?
He said smugly, "Fifth Elder Brother, Sixth Elder Brother, what are you still dazing around for? Eat quickly!"
Fifth Elder Brother and Sixth Elder Brother nodded dully and picked up their bowls and chopsticks.
After eating a few bites, Sixth Elder Brother couldn't help asking, "Ninth Younger Brother, when did you acquire such cooking skills?"
Mo Jiuye smiled awkwardly, "It was taught by Ranga. I made it according to her method."
It was not surprising then. Everyone in the family witnessed Ninth younger sister-in-law’s capabilities. It was no wonder that Ninth Younger Brother had received her true teachings.
Seeing his cooking skills appreciated, Mo Jiuye was thinking that he would disguise himself and go to the market to buy more ingredients today, so that he could show off his skills in the future and thoroughly impress his two elder brothers.
After breakfast, the sky was already bright. Mo Jiuye went back to the room to dress up a bit.
He put on the fake beard given by his wife, and thickened his eyebrows...
Although not as good at makeup as his wife, he looked even uglier, but his two elder brothers wouldn't recognize him if they didn't look closely.
With the approval of his two elder brothers on his outfit, Mo Jiuye then left the yard.
In the capital city, there were basically no places he was not familiar with, so Mo Jiuye wandered the streets with ease.
Since he went out, it would not be as simple as just shopping for groceries.
He intended to take a look around the Ninth Prince's Mansion, hoping to find something.
On the way from Yong'an Alley to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he had to pass the original Duke of Protector’s mansion.
Mo Jiuye's heart was inevitably sad when he arrived there.
It was still bustling with traffic outside the door, but the original Duke of Protector’s mansion was gone.
Mo Jiuye thought Emperor Shunwu would at least seal the mansion temporarily. Unexpectedly, the gate had been changed here.
On the towering red lacquered gate, a brand new plaque was hanging with the two large characters “Fei Residence”.
The first person Mo Jiuye thought of was Fei Nanyu. He heard from Meng Huaining that Fei Nanyu was highly valued by Nan Qi and was treated as his right-hand man.
Of Emperor Shunwu's three sons, Nan Heng died upstream of the Salt Lake, Nan Rui was now living incognito in West Ridge Village, and currently only one prince Nan Qi was left in the capital.
Besides, Nan Qi had also accumulated many cronies over the years, and he should be extremely comfortable now.
With Nan Qi's current status, giving his confidant a good mansion would be easy.
Mo Jiuye didn't want to reminisce here. He paused briefly and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, he had just turned around when the door opened.
Fei Nanyu looked solemn, exuding an aura of superiority, followed by servants and several guards.
Mo Jiuye pretended to pass by here on his way to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion, but his speed was extremely slow.
He heard someone talking to Fei Nanyu behind him.
"Sir, Prince Qi is going too far. He asked you to personally prepare the birthday gift for the Ninth Prince. Isn't this a waste of your talent?"
Fei Nanyu raised his hand to stop the servant's words.
"Don't talk nonsense. The fact that His Highness does this can fully demonstrate his trust in me."
The complaining servant was silenced and immediately shut his mouth.
Mo Jiuye walked not far from Fei Nanyu, and did not hear them speak again.
In fact, he didn't know that Fei Nanyu's dialogue with the servant just now was deliberately staged.
Recently, Emperor Shunwu had already revealed his intention to establish Nan Qi as the Crown Prince in the court. Those who used to fawn on Nan Heng were much more low-key now.
Especially the matter of Nan Qi being established as the Crown Prince, even if they wanted to object, they couldn't find a suitable reason.
After all, Prince Heng had been missing for more than half a year, and Prince Rui was even more useless. It was said that he had disappeared as well after Imperial Consort De passed away.
The emperor did not seem anxious at all about losing this son. The current situation in the court was that Prince Qi’s family dominated, and it had become an indisputable fact that he would become the next emperor of Great Shun.
Therefore, most of those ministers who used to fawn on Prince Heng had now defected to Prince Qi’s camp.
Prince Qi was now more arrogant. In He Zhiran's words, he became conceited...
Fei Nanyu, who had been most trusted before, had become less trusted under the provocation of some people with intentions.
However, Prince Qi knew clearly that Fei Nanyu was very talented and he was reluctant to abandon such a person.
The reason why he took the former Duke of Protector’s mansion for Fei Nanyu was to constantly remind Fei Nanyu of what happened to the Mo family on the surface.
Fei Nanyu was so smart that he could naturally see through Prince Qi's purpose.
He pretended to be ignorant and thanked Prince Qi profusely for giving him such a good mansion.
As the only heir of Great Shun, how could Prince Qi possibly not have anything good in his mansion?
Besides, what Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran had taken away was the national treasury, and they didn't touch his private treasury as the Prince.
It was obvious that Prince Qi was creating difficulties for Fei Nanyu.
Not long ago, Fei Nanyu found that the guards beside him were secretly reporting his whereabouts to Prince Qi. When he went out just now, he found that the guard was also following him. So he deliberately had that conversation with the servant.
