Chapter 5: Traveling through time and becoming the Saint of the Demonic Cult, she destroyed the entire Ning Palace (V)
The more Qin Mo listened, the more distorted his expression became. It turned out that the cousin he thought was devoted to him turned out to be such a woman.
She clearly knew that she and the young master of the Duke's Mansion were rivals, yet she was still so close to him.
"Cousin, you didn't really believe her lies, did you? She's trying to sow discord."
Seeing her cousin's face look so ugly, Feng Wan'er hurried to explain to him.
That day she went to the appointment to explain things to the young master and politely reject his feelings.
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. My patience is limited, so I won't talk about these trivial matters.
Feng Wan'er, I'm giving you a choice now. You can choose to stay with your cousin or leave."
Thinking about how the original owner had suffered a lot of stimulation from Feng Wan'er in the previous life, Hu Xiaomeng decided to let her have a taste of it.
"Huh? If I say I want to leave, will you really let me go?"
Hearing the words of the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult, Feng Wan'er looked at her with suspicion. Would she be so kind as to let her go back for help?
"Of course...but I have to ask your cousin's opinion.
Qin Mo, do you want your cousin to leave here, or let her stay here with you?
Hu Xiaomeng handed the decision-making power to Qin Mo.
If Qin Mo had not heard about the young master of the Duke's Mansion before, he would have chosen to let his cousin leave without saying a word.
But seeing the shining expression in her eyes when she heard that she could leave, I always felt that she was going back to live with the young master of the Duke's Mansion.
"Let my cousin stay with me."
After hearing this, Qin Mo was stunned for a while, and Feng Wan'er looked at him with an expression of disbelief. Is he crazy?
Only Hu Xiaomeng was not surprised at his decision. She immediately had Feng Wan'er's limbs chained up and picked up the whip beside her to greet her.
Soon, the sound of whips being whipped and Feng Wan'er's screams and cries of pain were heard in the dungeon.
Qin Mo closed his eyes and didn't dare to look at his cousin's eyes. She must hate him to death.
He was unwilling to admit that the moment he opened his mouth just now, what he was thinking in his heart was that he couldn't let her go back to be with the young master of the Duke's Mansion.
"Feng Wan'er, remember, all the suffering you've endured is due to your cousin.
You had a chance to leave, but he took away your only hope."
When Feng Wan'er was beaten to death, Hu Xiaomeng threw these two sentences into her ear and turned away.
"Why? Why do you treat me like this? Don't you want me to go back to Prince Ning's Mansion and get reinforcements to save you?"
When they were alone in the dungeon, Feng Wan'er forced herself to weakly accuse her cousin.
"Wan'er, don't be so naive. There's no way that big witch will really let you go. She is trying to drive a wedge between us.
If I had told you to leave just now, you would have become a corpse before you even got out of this dungeon. I was protecting you.
Believe me, if the people my father has assigned to protect me outside the Mingyue Sect don't get a signal from me, they will definitely sneak into the Demon Sect to rescue us."
Afraid that his cousin would hate him after he went out, Qin Mo defended his choice just now.
“Cousin, I don’t even remember how I was brought here. I’m afraid the two of us will never have the chance to get out again.
The power of these people in the Mingyue Sect is far more terrifying than we imagined, and the emperor's goal of wiping them out is simply impossible to achieve.
It doesn't matter, I have no regrets as long as I can die with you."
Looking at the dark dungeon, Feng Wan'er showed a miserable and desperate smile. She didn't believe that she had a chance to get out at all.
"Wan'er, don't encourage others and destroy your own prestige. Someone will definitely come to save us."
After hearing his cousin mention his "death news" twice in a row, Qin Mo really wanted her to shut up. If she couldn't speak, she should just say less. He didn't want to die yet.
Soon, Fox Xiaomeng sent a believer who was eavesdropping in secret to report to her exactly what he had heard.
[Master, is Qin Mo too confident in his so-called masters?
If he knew you had knocked all those masters unconscious and imprisoned them in the Mingyue Sect's cage, I wonder if he would be so desperate that he would vomit blood and die.
Ling Guoguo was also amused when she heard what the Mingyue Sect members said. She didn't expect that this arrogant prince was still daydreaming.
"We can't let him die so soon. I'd better go and provoke Prince Ning and his wife first."
Afraid that Qin Mo could not bear it, Hu Xiaomeng did not want him to die so soon, so she simply went to Prince Ning's Mansion to deal with his parents first.
So she quickly found evidence that Prince Ning had secretly manufactured weapons and raised private soldiers with the intention of rebellion, and secretly placed the strong evidence in the emperor's study.
When Emperor Jing saw the incriminating evidence, he was horrified and immediately ordered his secret guards to investigate.
In addition to investigating the affairs of Prince Ning's Mansion, we also need to find out who was able to put things into his imperial study without anyone noticing.
But no matter how hard his people investigated, they could not find any evidence of who put it there.
Although he couldn't find out who put the things there, he discovered through secret investigation that all the evidence was true. His good brother had indeed been secretly planning how to seize his throne.
The emperor was furious and immediately ordered his men to surround Prince Ning's mansion and take all the people inside to the Sky Prison to await their fate.
The people sent to search the house could not find Prince Ning no matter how hard they tried, so they had to return to the palace to report in trepidation.
"I don't care what method you use, find Qin Mo for me within three days, dead or alive, otherwise you will bring your heads to me!"
When the emperor heard the commander of the imperial guards say that Prince Ning was missing, he slammed the dragon table heavily, furious.
Fearing that Qin Mo had many forces hidden in the dark that he didn't know about, he sent more people to guard the imperial city, with three layers inside and three layers outside, all of whom were elite soldiers and generals.
The guards at the Sky Prison were also much tighter than usual, fearing that someone would break into the prison.
"Your Majesty, what should we do? Mo'er has not been heard from since he left for the Mingyue Sect, and I don't know if Wan'er has found him.
He should have heard about the palace incident. I hope Mo'er won't act impulsively and won't come to rescue us."
Princess Ning looked outside worriedly, fearing that her son would be captured.
"Who is behind this? Why did my brother suddenly attack Prince Ning's Mansion, and with such swiftness?
We didn't even have time to react. Where did he get the news from?
Fortunately, Mo'er went to the Mingyue Sect the day before, so there is still hope for our palace."
After planning secretly for so many years without being discovered by his royal brother, Prince Ning really couldn't guess who was behind the attack on Prince Ning's Mansion this time.
How could he have such a powerful opponent around him who quietly revealed all the affairs of Ningguo Mansion to his royal brother?
