Chapter 158 The Ugly Man Reveals His Face
Upon hearing this, Yun Wansheng asked curiously, "Why did she ask you to take off her mask?"
"She said that she is ugly and needs a godlike man to take off the mask on her face so that she can become a beauty." Mu Xingci said with a mocking smile.
Upon hearing this, Yun Wansheng continued to put on her clothes, but raised her eyelids to glance at him. She saw that he had specially changed into luxurious clothes and makeup before entering the city. He looked really handsome. No wonder he could make a little girl fall in love with him at first sight.
Seeing her looking at him with scrutiny, Mu Xingci couldn't help but smile more deeply: "Wan Sheng, do you also think that my good looks can be compared with those of a god?"
"Narcissism! Your appearance can only fool those ignorant little girls. Later, your image in her heart will collapse in an instant. Then you will no longer be the god in her mind, but a messenger from hell."
"So, in your heart, I am also a messenger of hell?"
"Almost!" Yun Wansheng responded calmly, then walked to the dressing table and combed her hair.
Mu Xingci walked behind the woman and looked at her in the mirror with tender eyes: "Whether you are a god or an angel of hell, at least I have a place in your heart."
Yun Wansheng locked eyes with the man in the mirror. "Our story is over. Once the poison is cured, you can return to your capital. Don't disturb my life anymore."
"Wan Sheng, I came here just for you this time. How can you not go back with me? I know you are still angry with me. If you want to quarrel with me, you can go to Beijing to quarrel with me. In short, whether you agree or not, you must go back with me." Mu Xingci put his hands on the woman's shoulders and said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Mu Xingci, you are forcing me. If you keep forcing me like this, I will hate you for the rest of my life." Yun Wansheng said angrily.
Just as Mu Xingci was about to say something, there was a knock on the door: "Prince Regent, the person is here."
"Come in!" Mu Xingci let go of the woman and walked to the front of the hall.
As the door opened, Shangguan Lan led a tall soldier into the room.
"I meet the Regent."
"What's your name?" Mu Xingci saw that he was ugly, and there was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
"My little one, Chen Wu."
"Chen Wu, I will give you a mission now. If you succeed, I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver. If you fail, I will kill you!"
Mu Xingci exudes an aura of power and pressure, making people dare not disobey him.
On the other side, Yan Baozhu was getting impatient. Why did the Regent take so long to wash his hands? It was almost dark.
Just as she was secretly thinking that the man was being too pretentious, she saw the Regent walking in from the back door in a dignified manner, followed by Shangguan Lan.
"Regent, you're back?" Yan Baozhu's eyes were filled with admiration.
"Yeah!" Mu Xingci responded lightly, walked directly to her, and without saying a word, easily took off the beautiful mask on the woman's face.
Yan Baozhu didn't expect that the Regent would take off his mask as soon as he arrived, which made her stunned for a moment, and then she gave the man in front of her a gentle smile.
"Regent, can I become beautiful now?" he asked, sending a shy look in his eyes.
The man in front of him seemed to be stunned. The mask in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously without him noticing. He just stared at the beautiful woman in front of him stupidly.
"Regent, why are you looking at me like that? Am I ugly?" Yan Baozhu was very satisfied with the man's reaction.
The mask on her face was specially made for her by her mother. If she liked a man, her body and mind would radiate her love all over her body, activating the poison on the mask.
As long as it penetrates the man's skin and absorbs blood, it will immediately become a worm, and then quickly control the man, making the man instantly fall in love with it and never betray it.
On the contrary, if she encounters someone with bad intentions who wants to take off her mask, she will exude a strong murderous intent, and as long as that person takes off her mask, that person will surely die.
Seeing the handsome man in front of her being successfully plotted against by her, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth: "Regent, have I become more beautiful or uglier?"
The man opposite seemed to wake up from a dream: "The girl is so beautiful!"
As soon as the voice came out, Yan Baozhu's face changed drastically, and she stumbled back a few steps: "You... who are you?"
"Miss, my name is Chen Wu. You are so beautiful that I really love you. May I know your last name?" Under the stimulation of the insect, Chen Wu expressed his true feelings.
Mu Xingci and Yun Wansheng, who were hiding in the dark, looked at each other at the same time, and a look of understanding flashed in their eyes.
"Get out of here! You're not the regent, who wants you to like me?" As soon as you hear the duck voice, you can guess that this person is not a good-looking man.
She never imagined that the regent would plot against her after being poisoned by the deadly Gu. Didn't he want to live?
Mu Xingci then walked out from the shadows. When Yan Baozhu saw him, her beautiful face was filled with grievance: "Regent, what do you mean by this? Why are you using someone else to impersonate you?"
"Miss Yan, I think you know best what I mean. You are indeed from the Yan tribe. You are really good at using poison. No matter who it is, you dare to plot against them.
Your mother plotted against me without knowing it, yet you, knowing my identity, still dared to plot against me. What crime should you be punished for harming me like this?" Mu Xingci asked coldly.
Yan Baozhu was about to retort when Ah Man beside her quickly pulled her to her knees and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, my daughter is young and naive. She simply likes you and has no bad intentions. Please don't bother with her.
This kind of poison isn't actually poisonous; it just makes the other person fall in love with her, and it doesn't do any other harm."
"Really? I don't believe it. But it's not impossible for me to spare her if you want me to. Just give me the antidote to the Black Widow, and I will pardon her death penalty." Mu Xingci said coldly.
"Regent, I don't have a ready-made antidote. The only way now is for me to make the antidote for you. But I don't have any utensils or medicine insects right now, so I can't make it even if I want to." Yan Baozhu said with a flash in her eyes.
"really?"
"How dare I deceive you? My elder brother has searched us. If I had any, I would have given it to you long ago."
Mu Xingci pondered for a moment and said, "Whatever you need, I'll have someone find it for you."
"Lord Regent, the antidote to this poison is hard to find. I need to go to Cangwu Mountain to find a medicinal insect that counteracts it. Fortunately, Cangwu Mountain is not far from here, but it's still a two-day journey. I don't know how long you've been poisoned. I want to see if I can make it in time."
"Three days!" Mu Xingci simply replied to her with two words.
