Yao Hengyu puffed out his cheeks and angrily climbed over the wall and came in.
"Have you seen what she is capable of?" A low and evil voice rang in his ears.
Yao Hengyu was so frightened that he fell off the wall.
"Jue...Brother Jue." He looked up at the man in the main room who pushed open the door and smiled sarcastically: "Aren't you busy in retreat recently? Why did you come out?"
"How can I know the good things you have done if you don't come out?"
Qingmu is still following Chu Chu secretly. If there is any trouble on her side, he will receive the message as soon as possible.
Mo Jue's narrow eyes glanced at the back of his hand.
Under the moonlight, the red scratches were clearly visible.
"You wanted to cause trouble for her, but ended up shooting yourself in the foot?" Mo Jue's delicate eyebrows showed a trace of ridicule, "I told you not to provoke her."
"It was only because I was too careless this time that I got punished by her!" Yao Hengyu retorted.
"I've been here several times with the same result." Mo Jue said in a very determined tone, "Compared to her, you are too young."
here we go again!
When he mentioned that liar, Brother Jue seemed to be a different person!
Yao Hengyu really couldn't stand his blind confidence in Chu Ran and his contempt for himself.
"I may not be good at other things, but when it comes to medicine and poison, no one can be my opponent except my father! Brother Jue, just wait and see!"
"It's up to you." Mo Jue had no intention of persuading him anymore. If he wanted to be tortured, he should leave it to Chu Chu to have fun.
"Master." A guard quickly ran over and reported: "Half an hour ago, the emperor summoned the commander of the imperial army. He is still in the imperial study and has not come out."
Mo Jue raised his black eyebrows slightly, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes: "Really?"
…
Imperial Palace Study Room.
Mu Huairen sat at the top of his head, his gentle face hidden in the shadows, his expression dark and dangerous.
In front of the Dragon Case, the commander in charge of the imperial army knelt.
At this time, his face turned pale, and he was lying on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
"Why didn't you come during the day?" Mu Huairen asked, his eyes dark and filled with countless ice blades.
"Such a big thing happened in the martial arts training ground. As the leader of the Forbidden Army, I don't believe that you didn't receive the news! But you never came to rescue me, and you allowed me to fall into the hands of Chu Ran, be persecuted by her, and threatened by her.
, bringing shame to the royal family! Tell me, how should I punish you?"
The commander immediately lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, it's definitely not that my subordinates are delaying on purpose, but it happened for a reason."
"Say!" Mu Huairen shouted.
"When the incident occurred at the martial arts training ground, I received the news and immediately led my troops to escort it. However, before I arrived at the martial arts field, I was stopped by the guards of the Regent's Palace. They refused to give way even at any cost.
, and also said that the regent would not let the emperor make any mistakes and let the subordinates go back. It is precisely because of them that the subordinates were delayed and failed to rush to protect the emperor in time. "
After the commander finished speaking, he kowtowed deeply to the emperor and said, "I have neglected my duties. Please punish me."
"Bang!"
A loud noise suddenly started up.
Mu Huairen stood up as he slapped the case, his face was livid, and anger was burning in his eyes: "It's Mo Jue again! He knew what happened in the martial arts field, but he still sent people to intercept the reinforcements. This is obviously helping the evil! Help that woman Chu Ran!"
The commander didn't have the guts to answer this, so he could only bury his head and pretend to be dead.
"He dares to do this today. If Chu Ran wants to kill the king in the future, will he also help him?"
In the royal study, it was as quiet as death.
Only his angry breathing echoed continuously.
"Zhiqua——"
The door suddenly opened, and a graceful and noble figure slowly walked in.
The faint fragrance filled the hall, refreshing the heart and mind.
"Your Majesty, don't lose your temper like this. It will hurt your health." The woman advised with a worried look on her face.
"I see you, your concubine. She is a thousand years old." The commander hurriedly paid his respects.
This is the mother-in-law of the third princess, the virtuous concubine Yang Yuning who has been favored for many years.
In the harem, she was the only one who dominated, and even the queen had to avoid her edge.
Mu Huairen looked unkind, "What are you doing here?"
"I heard that there was a big disturbance in the martial arts training ground today. I was worried about the emperor, so I wanted to come over and see you." Yang Yuning said softly.
"Hmph! You have the nerve to mention this!" Mu Huairen said angrily, but he still cared about her face and gave up on the commander, "Go down and receive the punishment!"
After they left, he said: "If it weren't for your idea, if I asked Chu Ran to compete, what would happen like this? Now it's fine, Tianyang's face was ruined by her Danhuo in the secret realm, and even the Shengji Cream
It cannot be repaired, so I can only show it to others with a mask! Rushuang was also injured by her and cannot continue to participate in the competition."
Mentioning these things, Mu Huairen's heart couldn't help but feel angry.
"But she did it again in the secret realm of selection. I wanted to pursue it, but I couldn't do it! I could only watch her take down the leader, and even the former emperor's Star Chaser Sword was taken away by her! Today, I was even more humiliated.
You have ruined the royal family’s face! If I had known this, I shouldn’t have listened to you in the first place!”
He really regretted it.
If Chu Ran had never participated in the competition, how could all of this have happened?
"I am also thinking that this girl has been disrespectful to the prince and Rushuang several times, and she has become close to the regent with many tricks. Therefore, if I keep her, I am afraid that she will become a great help to the regent in the future, which will be detrimental to the royal family.
That’s when I proposed to let her compete in the competition and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of her. But against all odds, it was not as good as hers!”
Thinking of her daughter's suffering, Yang Yuning's charming and enchanting face was distorted for a moment, but she quickly put it away.
"But it can be seen that this girl must not be kept here any longer! With her abilities and temperament, she will definitely be a serious problem for the emperor in the future."
Mu Huairen snorted coldly.
"How can I not understand this? But she is extremely capable. She has pills, fourth-level monsters, and a strange spiritual weapon that she got from nowhere. With the help of the Zhou family, in the imperial city,
Mo Jue also has hands and eyes that reach the sky, so it is extremely difficult to deal with her."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to rush to take action in the Imperial City. After three months, there will be a trial of the Three Kingdoms. There are dangers there, and accidents can happen at any time. Even if she died there, Mo Jue would seek revenge from the other two countries. By then, the Emperor will both
Being able to get rid of Chu Ran and using the power of the two countries to deal with Mo Jue is like killing two birds with one stone."
Mu Huairen thought about her words carefully and felt that they made sense.
"But this time we need to design it carefully to make sure everything is foolproof!"
…
early morning.
The dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground broke the tranquility of Zhaiyue Pavilion.
Chu Ran, who was practicing meditation, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Why are you here?" She looked at the uninvited man in surprise.
Eight days have passed since they last met.
Because the spiritual fire of heaven and earth warms and nourishes his meridians, Chu Ran has not been in a hurry to apply acupuncture and poison on him recently.
"Where's Xiaobai?" She looked around the room. The little guy who was supposed to be in the room had disappeared.
There was a rustling sound outside the door.
Chu Ran released his spiritual consciousness and found that it was squatting outside, scratching the wall with a resentful look on its face.
"Did you throw it out to cause the commotion just now?" she asked.
"I have shown mercy." Otherwise, based on Aoki's record of its "frivolous" behavior these days, he should have broken its legs and thrown it into the sky.
"Don't talk about it. We haven't seen each other for so long. Do you miss me?" Mo Jue asked with a half-smile.
Chu Ran's heart skipped a beat, and her cheeks felt a little hot under his deep gaze.
"If you don't say anything, you have it." His mood suddenly improved, he took out something from the storage space and handed it to her.
