Chapter 119 Killing Mo Cangyan
"And I've observed that the mountain road we're going to is very rugged. It's very difficult to attack down. The way up is very narrow, and there are steep cliffs on the side!"
"If we get ambushed on the way up, many people will get hurt and we won't be able to get up at all!"
Mo Cangyan lowered his eyelids: "So, we have to find a way to lure the people down from the mountain!"
…
Inside the Palace
Kong Xueer betrayed her father in order to save her own life. Also, she no longer had the emperor's favor, so the concubines in the harem were reluctant to talk to her. Some palace maids would even talk about her in a low voice when they met her.
Every time Kong Xueer heard the palace maids talking about her, she would have someone slap them in the face. Over time, the people in the palace became even more disgusted with her.
Thinking of the emperor's previous favor to her, Kong Xueer didn't believe that the emperor had no feelings for her anymore. After dressing up for a long time, she mustered up the courage to go to the Purple Gold Palace.
"Who?"
The guard at the door stopped her.
Kong Xueer was furious. She was held back when she was a palace maid, and now that she was the emperor's woman, this dog slave still wanted to hold her back.
"How dare you! I am Kong Zhaoyi. Do you dare to stop me?"
The guard's face was expressionless.
"Empress Zhaoyi, the emperor is ill. The imperial physician has told him to have a good rest and not to disturb anyone!"
Kong Xueer didn't believe it.
"How come I didn't know that the emperor was ill? Are you saying this on purpose to provoke me?"
The guard said, "Empress Zhaoyi, I dare not deceive you. This is the emperor's order. No one is allowed to disturb you!"
Kong Xueer gritted her teeth and said, "Since the emperor is ill, I can go in and take care of him, right?"
"The Emperor has someone special to take care of him, so you don't have to worry."
“…”
In the end, she still didn't see Mo Cangyan. Kong Xueer came to the back garden angrily. She wanted to relax, but she heard the news that the queen was also sick.
She stopped walking. The emperor was sick, so how come the empress was sick too? She thought about it and subconsciously felt that there must be some secret.
Thinking of this, she immediately went to Changqing Palace and told the people inside the news.
Murong set up an agency there, and as long as Kong Xueer came, he would be able to hear news about her.
“…”
Knowing that Mo Cangyan might not be in the palace, Murong's first thought was that they might have gone to Xuzhou.
After joining forces with Lin Youquan, Lin Youquan also told himself that some of his troops were hidden in Xuzhou.
Thinking of this, Murong hurriedly told Lin Youquan the news.
"So the patrol officer sent there was no one else but the Emperor himself!"
Murong nodded: "Yes, for sure!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Youquan burst into laughter.
"Well, the emperor actually ran to Xuzhou. That's my territory. No matter how lucky he is, he won't be able to escape this time!"
Murong: "The general means to kill Mo Cangyan directly in Xuzhou!"
"Of course, what a great opportunity!"
Murong still had some concerns.
"What if the emperor also dispatches troops?"
Lin Youquan waved his hand nonchalantly: "That's a good opportunity for my elite soldiers on Muya Mountain to gain some experience. They haven't fought a war for a long time!"
"The general is awesome!"
“…”
Concubine Li knew that Lin Ling was humiliated last time and must be very angry. She brought a lot of jewelry back to the Lin Mansion today to comfort her.
But I saw my father talking to a man I didn't know.
When she got closer and listened, she heard that her cousin had gone to Xuzhou and her father was going to kill him in Xuzhou...
Concubine Li was shocked. Although she had heard people say that her father was stirring up trouble in the court and had repeatedly disobeyed her cousin's orders...
But she thought it was just a rumor and never believed it. But now that she heard it with her own ears, she was angry and scared!
How could this happen? Her aunt was obviously very good to her and her sister, and her cousin, although strict, had always spoiled her since she was a child. Why did her father do this?
She wanted to rush in and argue with her father, but her previous lesson had taught her that she couldn't be so reckless as this concerned her cousin's life!
Thinking of this, she turned around and left in a hurry...
Concubine Li returned to the palace, not knowing what to do. She wanted to tell her aunt, but was afraid that her aunt would blame her father.
After thinking for a long time, she simply wrote down the news she heard on a piece of paper and called her most trusted subordinates.
"You must immediately deliver this letter to Xuzhou as fast as you can and give it to..."
Concubine Li wanted to say Mo Cangyan, but she was worried that her cousin's name was too sensitive.
Thinking that there was someone following her cousin, she said, "Give it to someone named Feng Xiyao. Remember to hand it over to Feng Xiyao in person!"
"Yes, I obey your command!"
Watching the man leave, Concubine Li breathed a sigh of relief.
She clasped her hands together and said: I hope I can help my cousin, I hope nothing happens to him, and if possible, I also hope nothing happens to Feng Xiyao, otherwise it will implicate my cousin!
…
Mo Cangyan has been with Ruyan these days and didn't ask about anything.
Looking at the two people reciting poems and composing them under the pavilion in the distance, Li Weide was very happy to see this situation.
As long as the inspector has no intention of interfering in the affairs here, he will find a way to fool the emperor who is coming to the capital!
Just when he was feeling proud, he was startled to see Feng Xiyao walking towards him angrily.
I have experienced the power of this woman. She is arrogant, domineering and unreasonable, and she never repeats herself when she curses at people!
If she went over now, she would definitely disturb the two people under the pavilion.
Seeing her about to come over, Li Weide hurried forward to stop her and looked at her with a smile.
"Hello, ma'am!"
Although this woman has a bad temper, she is really beautiful. Anyone would be bewitched just by looking at her beautiful face.
Facing the person who was blocking him, Feng Xiyao looked displeased.
"My wife is fine. May I ask what Lord Li wants to do?"
Li Weide gestured to the two people in the distance and smiled along.
"Madam has also seen that the Patrol Master really likes Miss Ruyan. Otherwise, Madam will agree!"
"If Madam can be as considerate as Miss Ruyan, I believe that the Lord will change his mind about you!"
Hearing this, Feng Xiyao put his hands on his hips and yelled.
"Master Li, are you saying that I am worse than a prostitute?"
Li Weide's face turned pale when she yelled at him and he waved his hands in panic.
"No, no, that's not what I meant!"
Feng Xiyao snorted coldly: "I just think you are, and you are right. I have always been narrow-minded. What I hate most is to share my things with others. If you want me to agree to accept that vixen, don't even think about it!"
As she said this, she raised her foot and was about to walk over.
Li Weide immediately blocked her and prevented her from passing.
"Ma'am, you can't do this!"
“…”
When Feng Xiyao saw a pond behind Li Weide, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
She approached step by step with her hands folded, and scared Li Weide so much that he stepped back step by step...
The two people under the pavilion only heard a splash sound from the opposite side. When they looked up, they saw Li Weide fell into the pond, struggling and shouting for help!
“…”
Feng Xiyao, who was standing nearby, looked at the people jumping around inside with a smug look on his face.
Mo Cangyan immediately ran over and said, "You slut, what have you done?"
