Lin Muheng stared intently at Mo Xiu, his gaze sharp, and said solemnly, "You'd better think this through. Once you start, it'll be like an arrow shot from a bow—there's no turning back!"
He knew Mo Xiu's personality well; he was by no means the kind of person who was afraid of death, but his talent was indeed somewhat mediocre.
Moreover, Mo Xiu does not enjoy killing. If he were to take charge of Nanning Kingdom, then at least for the next few decades, the southern border region would be spared the horrors of war.
The current emperor of Nanning belongs to the warmongering faction. However, since he has just ascended the throne and there is a fierce general like Jiang He guarding the southern border, he does not dare to easily provoke trouble for the time being.
On the surface, the emperor kept sending Lin Muheng beautiful women and gold and silver treasures, trying to confuse and lull him into complacency.
However, according to intelligence obtained by Daqing spies, the Emperor of Nanning was secretly stockpiling a large number of troops and provisions in the southern border region, clearly intending to break the contract between the Nanning royal family and Daqing.
Faced with the Nanning Emperor who was so untrustworthy and disregarded the overall situation, Lin Muheng felt that he no longer needed to be polite to him.
He was determined to drag this wicked and unjust man off the throne.
After all, Daqing urgently needs several years to recuperate, adjust, and recover.
If, ten years from now, Nanning dares to provoke us again, Daqing will absolutely not back down in the slightest.
However, at this moment, Lin Muheng did not intend to confront him directly, because that would only result in mutual destruction.
Instead, he only needs to cleverly draw Mo Xiu into this game, allowing Da Qing to reap the benefits.
As expected, Mo Xiu ultimately thought the same as Lin Muheng and quickly agreed.
Before long, Mo Xiu and Lin Muheng successfully reached an agreement. According to the agreement, as long as Lin Muheng fully assisted him in ascending the throne, he would ensure that Nanning Kingdom would not start a war with Daqing again.
And this was exactly the promise Lin Muheng had hoped to receive.
At this moment, Mo Xiuzheng stared intently at Lin Muheng before him and solemnly said, "The struggle for the throne must not allow the innocent people of Nanning to suffer any harm."
Lin Muheng nodded slightly in agreement, saying, "Protecting the people of Nanning is the duty of a ruler. I will find a way to help you capture the Emperor of Nanning alive. As for how you explain this to the people, that is none of my concern."
Lin Muheng frowned slightly, thinking to himself: With the old emperor's shrewdness and cunning, he must have a backup plan in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
After all, the struggle for the throne has always been a brutal battle full of intrigue and scheming.
The old emperor has done everything in his power to protect the second prince, and he will certainly not leave him without support.
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiu nodded in agreement without the slightest hesitation: "That's without a doubt!"
His eyes were firm and resolute, as if he could already see how the situation would develop.
In fact, the issue of the eldest prince inheriting the throne has been controversial from the very beginning.
Its improper name and flawed wording have long been an open secret.
The people of Nanning, in particular, were blinded by the lies woven by the Crown Prince, mistakenly believing that the new emperor would bring them peace and prosperity.
However, only Mo Xiu knew the truth.
The eldest prince meticulously deceived the ministers and the people, believing he had done it flawlessly.
In fact, the officials and people of Nanning had long harbored suspicions.
Over the years, Mo Xiu had been quietly waiting for the right opportunity to return to Nanning, expose the Crown Prince's hypocritical mask, and let the people see his true colors.
He was willing to pay any price for this.
At this moment, Mo Xiu tightly gripped the trump card in his hand—a mysterious and deadly weapon.
Once this treasure is exposed, it will surely deal a devastating blow to the Emperor of Nanning.
Mo Xiu knew very well that if he wanted to successfully realize his plan and remove the eldest prince from the throne, he would need Lin Muheng's help.
Only with Lin Muheng's help could he successfully reach Nanning and reveal this trump card at the crucial moment.
At that time, the eldest prince, who occupies the throne, will inevitably be in dire straits, with no chance of turning the tide.
Mo Xiu will eventually achieve his wish: to give his mother justice.
The eldest prince must die by his own hand; only in this way can he vent his hatred. He must personally kill that inhuman beast.
Lin Muheng said with a stern face, "Hurry up and pack your things. We'll set off first thing tomorrow morning."
Mo Xiu, who was standing to the side, was slightly taken aback when he heard this, surprised that it happened so quickly!
"What, don't you want to go back soon?" Lin Muheng asked.
"No, I'll deal with it now." He couldn't wait to act, after all, he had long been unable to suppress the urge to kill the eldest prince.
Without hesitation, he nodded and replied, "Okay! I'll go prepare right away."
He then added, "This house is now yours." With that, his gaze fell upon the magnificent mansion.
Lin Muheng nodded knowingly, indicating that he accepted the gift.
In fact, he was well aware of the vast amount of treasure hidden in this house.
Back then, the reason why the late emperor guarded this house so strictly and assigned heavy troops to protect it was simply because he was worried that someone with ill intentions would covet the wealth inside and try to murder him for it.
If the Second Prince is trapped in this mansion for the rest of his life, then no amount of money will help him. All these mountains of gold and silver will ultimately end up in the treasury of the Great Qing Dynasty.
