Chapter 108: Failed Assassination
Mu Yun, the strategist beside King Shu, has emerged, and many people in the court are optimistic about it, even Emperor Yin has a hidden heart of reuse, once this person enters the court, it is likely to become a powerful help for King Shu in the court.
Sitting behind the bookcase in his study, Shangguan Mo's face was really not good-looking, thinking of the recommendation of Mu Yun by the people in the court in the early dynasty, even his father nodded in praise, and his anger couldn't stop rising.
The man in black kneeling in front of him didn't dare to take a breath, and his head was lowered and motionless like a sculpture.
With a "bang", the teacup slammed into the marble floor, shattering instantly, and the tea splashed the face of the man in black.
The hot liquid slid down his face, but he didn't dare to raise his sleeve to wipe it.
A cold voice came from behind the bookcase: "Waste, the mission failed and the face came back?" ”
The man in black forcibly held back the discomfort on his face, and hurriedly replied: "The subordinates should be damned, it's just that Fenghua Xueyue has already been ambushed, and King Chen arrived later, so ......"
"King Chen? Fourteen Uncle Wang? Shangguan Mo was taken aback for a moment, and said to himself: "Uncle Fourteen Wang would actually meddle in these things? Hasn't he always been neutral in the DPRK and China and does not participate in the battle for the storage position? Could it be that now he has begun to support King Shu? ”
His face changed, and he asked the man in red who was sitting next to the bookcase, "Mr. Yan, what do you think about this matter?" ”
However, the man in red didn't say a word, as if he had lost his mind.
Shangguan Mo condensed his eyebrows, coughed lightly twice, and called in a deep voice: "Mr. Yan." ”
Only then did the man in red come back to his senses and responded: "Yes." ”
"What was Mr. Yan thinking just now? It's so distracted. Although Shangguan Mo's tone was not as harsh and cold as the reprimanding of the man in black just now, it was obviously unpleasant.
The man in red did not nervously beg for mercy because of this, his expression was always faint, and he only bowed his hand slightly: "Please forgive me, Yan was thinking about when such a mysterious Mu Gongzi appeared in this world just now?" ”
"I see, Mr. Yan is also a genius who has few opponents in the world, and it is reasonable to suddenly see such an opponent." Shangguan Mo still has some respect for the man in red.
"Thank you for your understanding."
"It doesn't matter." Shangguan Mo waved his hand, and then said: "Last night, the king sent someone to assassinate the son surnamed Mu next to Shangguan Yunxiao, but was stopped by King Chen, Mr. Yan, did you say that King Chen did not intend to support Shangguan Yunxiao?" King Chen's power and prestige in Tianchen are not trivial, and if King Chen supports it, it will be a huge threat to this king. ”
The man in red thought for a while, and then replied: "Yan thinks that the prince doesn't need to worry so much, and King Chen's rescue of the prince surnamed Mu may not be because of King Shu." ”
"Mr. Yan means ......"
"Didn't you forget that in the battle that day, the formation broken by the prince surnamed Mu was laid out by King Chen."
"For so many years, it is the first time that a person who can break King Chen's formation with such a snap of his fingers has seen him, and it is not difficult to explain that King Chen will appreciate him." Shangguan Mo's face was abrupt, he pondered for a moment, and then said: "This king originally thought that the person who could have this ability today, unless it was the willow blue war king Gongyi without a shadow, I didn't expect that there was such an outstanding talent in the world." ”
A hint of strong unwillingness suddenly flashed in the eyes of the man in red, but the speed was extremely fast, and he couldn't find any trace in a blink of an eye.
Shangguan Mo didn't pay attention either, and said gloomily: "However, in this case, this person will be even more unstoppable." ”
"What is the prince going to do?"
"Since Uncle Fourteen Wang has intervened, I'm afraid it will be more difficult to get rid of this person." Shangguan Mo sneered on his lips, a touch of viciousness oozed from his eyes, and he said slowly: "It's just that this king wants to get rid of one person, so naturally there will be a way." ”
Then he looked coldly at the person kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "For the sake of you who have followed this king for so many years, this time your life will be remembered first, but if the task fails, you will go to the torture room to receive the punishment yourself." If there is a next time, you know what to do. ”
"Thank you for not killing." The man in black replied respectfully, and then retreated silently.
