Chapter 147 The Master and Disciple’s Plan

Another confidant of Uncle Zhao was forced into a corner by two guards of Mo Tiancheng and Chang Teng, who joined them, and then captured.

The main hall was in a mess and Zhao Xier suddenly cried out.

Everyone looked over immediately and saw that Mo Yunzhu's dagger had directly cut her neck, and blood flowed out immediately.

"Shut up!" Mo Yunzhu shouted, then looked at her father's serious and gloomy face.

"Mo Tiancheng, you, you actually killed my confidant?" When Uncle Zhao saw one of his men being trampled to death, his face turned pale.

In fact, he didn't expect Mo Tiancheng to be so powerful. These two men were the most powerful among his guards. He didn't expect that they would be trampled to death by Mo Tiancheng after just a few moves.

This gap made Zhao Guojiu realize that the title of great general was indeed not an undeserved title.

But he never expected that Mo Tiancheng would kill people directly when he got angry. This man was too barbaric and cruel.

"Uncle Zhao, you are looking for death!" Mo Tiancheng suddenly kicked Uncle Zhao.

"Ah!" Uncle Zhao wanted to escape, but he had no martial arts skills and was fat, so he was not only knocked over by a kick, but also rolled on the ground twice, holding his chest and screaming.

Mo Tiancheng exuded murderous aura as he walked towards Uncle Zhao who was terribly frightened.

"Dad." Mo Yunzhu had no choice but to let go of Zhao Xier. She originally wanted to make a deal with Uncle Zhao, but she never thought that her father was really crazy.

"Mo Tiancheng, you, you dare to kick me!" Uncle Zhao was extremely embarrassed, but he was also very scared. However, he was the Queen's younger brother and the Emperor's brother-in-law. Even if Mo Tiancheng had the courage of the world, he would not dare to kill him.

Mo Yunzhu walked to her father, held him and said, "Dad, calm down, I'm fine."

The evil spirit on Mo Tiancheng slowly dissipated. He looked at Mo Yunzhu, then walked back and found an undamaged chair to sit down on.

Mo Yunzhu could feel her father trembling, and thinking that he must have been frightened just now, a warm feeling suddenly surged in her heart.

Mo Yunzhu looked at the other one that Chang Teng and the other two had caught, and then said, "Drag him out and beat him up, just leave him with a breath."

Chang Teng and the other two immediately dragged the man out of the door, and then he heard continuous screams and groans.

Uncle Zhao's face became paler and paler. He finally sat up and stared at Mo Tiancheng and Mo Yunzhu with resentment.

"Dad." Zhao Xier touched the side of her neck. Fortunately, the wound was small and only bled a little. She quickly ran over to support her father, but her face was full of tears and she was very scared.

"Mo Tiancheng, you, you wait for me, go!" Uncle Zhao said fiercely and walked towards the gate.

Outside the door was the Zhao family's carriage, as well as guards and servants, but only two of them were brought in when they entered the mansion.

The other guard at the door had been beaten to a bloody pulp and was barely alive.

Mo Tiancheng clenched his fists and said nothing. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back and would beat Uncle Zhao to death.

"Throw the body out and let the king's uncle take it away." Mo Yunzhu said to Chang Teng, then turned to look at her father and stroked his back.

"Dad, it's okay, it's okay."

Mo Tiancheng slowly calmed down.

Then he said, "You are not hurt, are you? It was my father's fault for neglecting me. I didn't expect him to bring two experts with him, obviously to attack you. Just now, he almost..."

"Dad, I'm fine. Uncle Zhao must have been ordered by the Empress to do this. He just wants to cripple me. There is no chance outside, so he can only come to my house. Otherwise, he is too bold."

Mo Tiancheng nodded and said, "The Queen has made up her mind. Yunzhu, you should be careful when you go out. Bring a few more people with you. I will go to the morning court tomorrow and make a good complaint."

"Dad, if they didn't complain, we wouldn't complain either, lest they accuse us of being petty. Now they are the ones who suffer." Mo Yunzhu shrugged and smiled.

"Uncle Zhao won't do it so easily." Mo Tiancheng was still very worried.

"Dad, don't worry, I can protect myself." Mo Yunzhu knew how her father felt. She felt warm at the thought that she might not be his biological child, but he treated her better than his biological child.

The next day, there was indeed no news from Uncle Zhao. Mo Tiancheng went to the morning court, but he did not see any officials with good connections with the Zhao family complaining. The emperor did not know about this at all, which surprised Mo Tiancheng.

The emperor's lack of energy worried the court officials, but the royal doctors said it was nothing serious and it was just the cold weather that caused poor blood circulation.

Lan Yan invited Mo Yunzhu to the teahouse. Mo Yunzhu heard him say that he helped the emperor with treatment and the emperor's condition improved slightly. The old emperor was very happy and trusted him and gave him a lot of gifts.

He was even asked to come to the palace every day to praise this miraculous doctor for his superb medical skills, which were even better than those of Imperial Doctor Ji.

"Very good." Mo Yunzhu curled the corners of her mouth, "Is the Five Poison Powder ready?" She had given Lan Yan a task before, which was to make some Five Poison Powder.

"It's already done. Do you want it now? Or after the New Year? Today is the 28th day of the New Year."

Lan Yan knew what Mo Yunzhu was going to do, but he hoped it would be after the New Year. After all, he didn't want to have so much trouble during the New Year.

"Then let's do it after the New Year, so that everyone can have a good New Year." Mo Yunzhu agreed after thinking about it.

"On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I will hint to the Emperor. Please find someone to keep that thing away." Lan Yan said to Mo Yunzhu.

Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "Of course, no problem. We're going to kill two birds with one stone this time." As she spoke, she showed a ruthless look.

"Master, how is Master Zhuo doing?"

Mo Yunzhu told Lan Yan about Zhuo Yu's affairs, and Lan Yan was shocked: "He is actually the prince of Chen State?"

"Not necessarily, it's just a guess, but it feels pretty close." Mo Yunzhu also felt it was very likely.

"Did he and Prince Lan have a falling out?" Lan Yan said with a wry smile.

"Isn't New Year's Eve still around? If he comes to celebrate the New Year with us, it means he still considers us friends. Then I think I should tell him the truth."

Mo Yunzhu had indeed thought about this matter, and felt that if Zhuo Yu really regarded them as friends, she could no longer hide it, and she should tell him that she had the blood fox on her body. In this way, even if he was very angry, he would probably calm down.

She and he are most likely siblings, full siblings or cousins.

Two days later, it was New Year's Eve. The whole capital was bustling with activity. Every household was having New Year's Eve dinner. Naturally, there was also a palace banquet in the palace, but it was much smaller than in previous years.

The Emperor did not allow court officials to attend this year due to the death of the Empress Dowager and his own illness. Only the royal bloodline was present.

As expected, Jun Huolan was not among the invited guests. The reason was that the emperor felt the weather was cold and sympathized with his fifth son's frail health, so he let him celebrate the New Year at his home. However, he did send him a lot of gifts as compensation.

The Fourth Prince Jun Wuyang, who was originally under house arrest, was naturally released and attended the palace banquet with the Crown Prince Jun Xianhe and other princes.
