to the house and rest.But Fu'er appeared today, so she just chatted with Fengming for a while. She didn't expect Mo Yunjing to come back so soon.To say I'm not feeling guilty right now would be a lie...At this point, Zhao Li and Zhou Zhiyao's hearts skipped a beat, their worries intensified.
Seeing the expressions on the two people's faces, Mo Yunze knew that his previous words had already persuaded them to leave. At this moment, he said:
But you needn't worry, for the time being, rest assured in this Prince's residence. Once Mo Yun Jing leaves the capital, this prince will immediately dispatch someone to escort you back to Xuan Country.
Zhao Li raised an eyebrow. "Will Mo Yunjing leave the capital"
"Yes, it won't be long before he has to leave."
Zhao Li still wanted to ask something, but Mo Yunze didn't want to say more. He had already shifted the topic, saying, "Your Highness can rest assured and stay in this Prince's Mansion. This mansion is generally inaccessible to ordinary people."
After that, Mo Yunze stood up. He gave Zhou Zhiyao a meaningful, deep look and then called the steward to take Zhao Li and the others downstairs to rest.
Zhou Zhiyao was again made stiff all over by Mo Yunze's gaze. This day, the Fourth Prince of Tianba Kingdom...
He didn't dare to think further, it was too terrifying.
......
Zhao Li wasn't sure what Zhou Zhiyao was thinking. After Mo Yunze left, he went to find Zhao Si.
Seeing Zhao Li coming over, Zhao Si still thought he was here to apologize to her. Her lips moved as if she wanted to act coquettishly with Zhao Li, but the words that reached her lips were abruptly swallowed back by a sudden slap from Zhao Li.
Zhao Si unbelievably covered her face that had been slapped and stared at Zhao Li, "Brother Emperor, you...you hit me again!"
"Oh."
Zhao Li's eyes were unlike their usual self. Now, every time Zhao Li thought about how Zhao Si was still able to protect Han Yun at this crucial moment, he felt like tearing her apart.
"Zhao Si, do you know our current situation Do you know that only five guards remain from the ones I brought back from Xuan Guo!"
"!"
Zhao Si's eyes widened in disbelief, clearly she was truly clueless.
Their guard escort has been reduced to only five
< How is that possible >
Looking at her expression, Zhao Li sneered, "What Think your brother lied to you"
"Brother Emperor, how...how could this be"
"Even now, you still think of marrying into the Northern Border Prince's Mansion Don't you know that the black-clothed man who almost took your and my life just now was sent by the Northern Border Prince If it hadn't been for Han Yun appearing in time, if it hadn't been for Mo Yunze choosing to make a move, you and I might already be in the underworld!"
Zhaosi's face was full of astonishment, she didn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it, "No...impossible!"
Zhao Li didn't want to waste words with her. He came here just to warn her. Now, looking at her, he sneered and warned through gritted teeth:
"Zhao Si, you must remember this. With Han Yun, the master of Qingyun Pavilion, assisting us, you might have a chance to safely return to Xuan Kingdom. If something like this happens again, don't blame me for acting in righteousness and killing you here!"
After warning Zhao Si, Zhao Li returned to his own yard, completely unwilling to stay with such a foolish person.
Zhao Si remained rooted to the spot, motionless for a long time. No one knew what she was thinking, but no one dared to approach her. After all, to step forward at this moment would be courting death.
......
On the other hand, Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang also learned that Zhao Li and others had been taken to Mo Yunze's mansion.
The few who hadn't completed their tasks reported to Mo Yunjing and then went down to receive their punishments.
An Xuetang looked at Mo Yunjing's gloomy face and patted his hand, "Don't get angry. The damned will die sooner or later, it's just that it will be a few days later."
Mòyúnjǐng narrowed his eyes slightly. A few more days
Do you think Zhao Li thinks he can save his life by hiding in Mo Yunze's mansion
What an imaginative idea!
Faced with An Xuetang's words, Mo Yunjing did not retort. He nodded at this moment, "Let's have some food first."
"Okay."
Although she entered the palace to attend a grand feast, she barely ate anything. The sight of those people made her feel nauseous and she couldn't stomach it.
So now she also felt a slight hunger.
After the meal, Mo Yunjing and Mo Xueyun spent time together. However, a letter received by An Xuetang completely dashed her intention of visiting Fengming next door.
The letter was sent back by Xinhong. An Xuetang and Mo Yunjing read the contents of the letter together, and the expressions of the two people became gloomy at a speed visible to the naked eye. A flash of malice crossed Mo Yunjing's eyes.
As An Xuetang had feared, the problems she worried about came to pass. She had always been concerned that the production of explosives would be hindered. Previously, Bai Guanggong had guessed that they needed charcoal and potassium nitrate to make explosives, so they sent people to purchase these two things all over the place, resulting in a shortage of raw materials for making explosives.
The production of explosives was naturally hampered, and she later used a prescription for suppressing tuberculosis to make a deal with Mo Rui.
Mo Rui is someone she helped by using her medicine. Without her prescription, Mo Rui wouldn't have been able to continue living with tuberculosis. So when she asked him for a favor privately, he agreed without hesitation.
In recent days, Mo Rui had indeed helped them stockpile a considerable amount of charcoal and potassium nitrate. However, they never expected that Bai Guang Palace would discover Mo Rui's operation, and they sent people to his place to continue collecting charcoal and potassium nitrate. As a result, Mo Rui can no longer find these two things now.
That means making explosives got delayed again.
An Xuetang still hoped to make more explosives, preparing for when war with the Red Nation began so they would quickly know their place and retreat!
Now, the letter from Xún Hóng came to say that they only had over two hundred packs of explosives.
More than two hundred bombs, could only hold out for one battle. If the Red Nation suffered a defeat and still didn't intend to retreat, then if they continued to send troops, she and Mo Yun Jing wouldn't be able to keep their lack of explosives a secret anymore.
If there were no explosives, Mo Yunchen and the Blue Nation's cooperation would certainly be reached quickly. There is also the Xi Liang Nation and Xuan Nation... Once they all launched a war against the Tianba Nation, with just the current military strength of the Tianba Nation, they couldn't hold out for long.
Thinking of this, An Xuetang's heart clenched suddenly, and she looked at Mo Yunjing with worry.
Her husband didn't care about the imperial position, but as his wife, she knew better than anyone how deeply patriotic he was. He would never abandon the people of Tianba Kingdom, nor would he stand by and watch every city become a sea of blood.
Even if it meant sacrificing his own life, he would lead his army to repel all foreign powers.
Even if he were incredibly capable, what could one person do When it came to attacking another country, how could he possibly resist so many nations by himself
Today's Heaven-Dominating Nation, besides relying on him, who else can it rely on
Prince Mo Yunren and Prince Mo Yunze, these princes are short-sighted. They only have their eyes on the throne and would even go to greater extremes for it.
These people are better off not causing any more trouble for Mo Yun Jing. They don't have the capacity to fight against a foreign enemy.
Even in their eyes, they couldn't wait to have Mo Yunjing send troops immediately, fighting against the enemy country and Mo Yunchen, a battle of life and death. Then they could reap the benefits of the situation. Such foolish people simply didn't understand that it's easy to invite a god but difficult to send one away.
I have to say, An Xuetang's truth is out!As if afraid of her blood splattering on himself, he also politely stepped back two steps.The woman opened her mouth, her unwilling eyes glared at Han Yun, but in the end she couldn't say a word. She...
