Chapter 432 The Fox
Mo Sixuan's lips twitched. He was only wearing a shirt on his upper body, exposing his chest and abdomen, and his pants were only half-on. He looked like a monkey wearing only a piece of cloth, extremely disheveled.
Even though he's dressed neatly now, he's still at a disadvantage.
His hands were neither as fast nor as sharp as Wen Zhiming's sword.
His palm strike would at most severely injure Lu Shui, but Wen Zhiming's sword strike could take his life.
Mo Sixuan wisely withdrew his hand and quickly put on his clothes.
Lu Shui quickly stood up and retreated behind Wen Zhiming.
After dressing, Mo Sixuan jumped out of bed and said angrily.
"Taking advantage of someone in distress, what kind of skill is that?"
Wen Zhiming smiled faintly.
"I can't compare to you. To ascend the throne, you murdered seven of your own brothers; out of personal grudges, you poisoned a three-year-old child; just now, you even tried to harm a woman. How can a ruler of a nation act so despicably? Compared to your evil deeds, what is taking advantage of someone in distress?"
A hint of ferocity flickered across Mo Sixuan's face.
It turns out that Wen Zhiming not only knew he had come to the capital, but also knew about his killing of seven brothers.
This time, the trip to Beijing involved two major mistakes: miscalculation and underestimating the enemy.
It seems that the plan to stir up trouble in the Golden Moon Kingdom's court and fish in troubled waters will not work.
Mo Sixuan was filled with regret and anger when he heard Wen Zhiming say with a smile.
"Besides, even if I didn't take advantage of your misfortune, and I were to give you another chance now, would you dare to fight?"
Mo Sixuan knew his own abilities. Back then, even with ten soldiers forming a formation, he couldn't defeat Wen Zhiming. Now, alone, he was even less likely to be a match for Wen Zhiming in a one-on-one fight.
If we don't act now, it could be said that Wen Zhiming is taking advantage of our vulnerability.
If we were to fight him again, we wouldn't have any excuse left.
Mo Sixuan raised his head and said coldly.
"Why go through all this trouble? Let's be frank. I made all the arrangements when I left the country. If I don't return within a month, the Blue Feather Kingdom will launch an attack on the Golden Moon Kingdom. So what if I've been captured by you? If you dare to kill me, our two countries will inevitably clash, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."
He's gambling.
Du Wenzhimo was unwilling to start another war, so he had no choice but to let him go.
Of course, he did make arrangements when he left Blue Feather Kingdom: if he did not receive any reply from him within a month, he would launch a full-scale attack on Golden Moon Kingdom.
In short, even in death, he cannot make things easy for others.
Upon hearing this, Wen Zhiming looked regretful, but quickly regained his composure and said...
"When did I say I wanted to kill you? I heard that the Emperor of Lanyu Kingdom had come to my territory, and I was worried that I might offend the monarch of a neighboring country, so I came here to welcome you into the palace as a guest, to fulfill my duty as a host."
Mo Sixuan cursed inwardly, "Who brings a sword into a room to greet a guest?"
And to make matters worse, it just happened to interrupt his good deed.
Clearly, after hearing his instructions, they dared not kill him rashly, which is why they changed their strategy.
He didn't expose her, but pointed at Qingfeng with a half-smile.
"Then I misunderstood you. But what's wrong with my subordinates?"
Wen Zhiming said matter-of-factly, "He blocked me from seeing you, and I pushed him in my haste and he fainted. You can bring as many subordinates as you have to come to the palace as guests. I brought dozens of people to welcome you today, so you can take as many guests as you want."
Mo Sixuan knew that Wen Zhiming definitely didn't come alone, but he didn't expect that he had brought dozens of people with him.
They really did make thorough preparations.
Since there's no hope of escaping today, and Wen Zhiming won't kill him for the time being, there's nothing wrong with going to the palace with him. It'll be a good opportunity to see what Wen Zhiming is up to.
Let's see if we can take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits.
Thinking of this, Mo Sixuan said.
"Since the Emperor of Jin Yue Kingdom has personally come to welcome me, I cannot refuse such hospitality. I will then make a trip to the Jin Yue Kingdom's palace. I am only here to take a look around, and I have only brought one subordinate with me. This small place is not comfortable to stay in. Since you are so kind, let's go now."
He still had two assassins, Chi Yu and Xuan Kai, outside, but of course, Wen Zhiming couldn't know about this.
Both were cunning foxes, each with their own schemes and calculations.
Upon hearing this, Wen Zhiming looked at Lushui and said gently.
"Don't rush, I forgot to introduce you earlier. This is Physician Zheng from our Golden Moon Kingdom, who is quite knowledgeable about poisons. She is currently developing an antidote for Mo Meiren. As you probably know, developing an antidote is not easy, but getting a few similar poisons is a piece of cake."
Seeing Mo Sixuan's shocked expression, Wen Zhiming continued.
"Since you've moved into the palace, everything from food and clothing to lodging has been provided by the imperial palace. It's probably not easy to avoid being poisoned. Of course, for the sake of peace between the two countries, we can't take your life, but making you suffer a little is just a matter of reciprocity, since you were the one who first tried to poison my eldest princess."
Mo Sixuan's eyes widened: "What do you mean?"
Is this a threat to him?
Wen Zhiming's lips curved slightly.
"Only by handing over the antidote to Mo Meiren can you live in peace."
"What if I don't comply?" Mo Sixuan's eyes were unfriendly.
"As you know, the one poisoned by Mo Meiren was just a minor female official by the Empress's side. If you don't hand over the antidote, the Empress and I will only lose a female official, but you will suffer a fate worse than death for many days."
Wen Zhiming calmly returned the glance, as if Mo Sixuan had already gained a huge advantage in this deal.
Even though Mo Sixuan disagreed, he remained completely unperturbed.
Mo Sixuan remained silent for only a moment before taking out a small white bottle from his sleeve and tossing it to Wen Zhiming.
"for you!"
He didn't want to be poisoned every day; how could the life of a mere female official be compared to his?
As long as I survive, I'll go back alive.
Sooner or later, he will take back everything he has lost today.
Once he leads his troops into Jin Yue, Wen Zhiming will realize that not killing him today will be the most regrettable thing he has ever done in his life.
Wen Zhiming tucked the small white bottle into his pocket.
Mo Sixuan dared not fake it at this moment; he would not risk his own safety.
"Please come in. Horses are prepared for our guests downstairs."
Wen Zhiming gestured for Mo Sixuan to go first.
As Mo Sixuan passed by Lu Shui, he glared at her fiercely.
No wonder this slut refused to submit to him; it turns out she actually managed to become a royal physician.
The imperial physicians in the Golden Moon Kingdom have always been men, so Wen Zhiming and Meng Lingge's decision to make this precedent for her is indeed a sign of special care.
What a despicable person! Instead of being a proper master, she insists on serving and subservient to others.
He thought being a royal physician was something special. If Wen Zhiming hadn't arrived in time tonight, he would have made this slut his woman long ago, and she would never dare to resist him for the rest of her life.
Do you think you can rest easy now that you've escaped?
You can escape today, but you can't escape tomorrow.
He will get his hands on the prey he sets his sights on sooner or later.
Mo Sixuan said heavily in his heart: Green Water, you just wait.
Green Water trembled slightly at that glance, but quickly recovered.
She succeeded.
This led to the capture of Mo Sixuan, who, together with Wen Zhimo, successfully captured this ruthless and vicious king of the enemy country.
With the antidote in hand, Meng Lingge's expectations were met, and the mission was successfully completed.
From now on, she will focus on being a good imperial physician and will have no further contact with Mo Sixuan. There's nothing to be afraid of.
