At the same time that the ghost doctor was stitching up the wounds of Li Yi and the others, in a mansion in Jinling City, Lord Mao was kneeling in front of an old man.

Next to him, Mang Qing lay there covered in blood, and a doctor was also helping him with his wounds.

Compared to Mang Qing's blood, Qiu Fengyu's injuries were even more serious.

At this time, Qiu Fengyu's teeth were clenched, his whole body trembled, and there was not even a trace of blood on his face.

The whole person looked like a miserable white corpse.

And on the ground beside him, there were several pools of blood, and the strong smell of blood was unbearable.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?"

The cold voice of the old man sitting on the upper seat made Master Mao shudder.

"I can't blame us for this, Lord Wang! We didn't expect that Mu Junhe and his junior brother's martial arts would be so strong. ”

When Master Mao heard the old man's questioning, he immediately slammed his head on the floor and defended.

"Hmph, that's your answer to me?"

The old Jin King gently put down the teacup in his hand, and then asked with a sneer.

Although his tone was very flat, as if he was asking an inconsequential question, Master Mao knew that the old man at this time was already out of anger.

"We are also responsible for this matter, we really didn't expect Mu Junhe and them to use poison at a critical time, if not, they would not have escaped."

Thinking of this, Master Mao couldn't help but grit his teeth a little.

In the past, when the imperial court was chasing Mu Junhe, they had never encountered the use of poison by the other party.

So they didn't do anything to prepare for this time.

And even if someone is poisoned on his side, there is still a ghost doctor, a master of poison and detoxification.

So no matter how you look at it, it's impossible for your side to lose.

"Humph! Mao Xuechao, do you know how much I spent to invite so many masters of the rivers and lakes for this operation, but you are good to fold fifteen people into me at once, and you also made Qiu Fengyu look like this. ”

The old Jin King, who was originally as calm as an abyss, suddenly slapped the table and asked angrily.

Master Mao couldn't help but be startled, he didn't expect that the old man's mood that was calm as water just now would change so quickly.

"The prince is angry, the villain deserves death."

When Lord Mao saw that the old Jin King was angry, he immediately kept kowtowing and confessing.

"Mao Xuechao, I know what you think, you think you are Your Majesty's person, so I can't help you, right?"

After the old Jin King said this, he slowly stood up.

"The prince is angry, the villain dares to have such a rebellious idea! You and Your Majesty are uncles and nephews! ”

Lord Mao had already felt the surging killing intent on the old Jin King at this time, and he knew that if he couldn't convince the old Jin King in front of him today, he would only be greeted by death.

"Hmph, Mao Xuechao, I still know a little bit about you, and I won't talk about you bullying officials by using the emperor's prestige on weekdays, but this time because of your poor command, the people we sent out suffered heavy casualties, do you think you can get away with it just by relying on your words?"

The old king of Jin stepped forward and kicked Master Mao on his back.

"The prince is angry, how can the kid deceive the prince!"

After Master Mao was kicked to the ground by the old Jin King, he immediately got up, and then continued to kneel on the ground, constantly kowtowing to the old Jin King.

"Humph! Aren't you always boastful in front of the old man? But now? ”

The old Jin King asked with an angry face.

But Master Mao was too frightened to speak anymore at this time.

He knew very well in his heart that the old Jin King in front of him was not joking at all when he said that he wanted to kill him.

In other words, no one would dare to talk to him, even the feudal kings of other feudal kingdoms.

After all, he represents the face of the emperor, and he is a spy arranged by the emperor to be responsible for monitoring the various vassal kings in various places.

Once the vassal king makes a move against someone of his own type, it means that the vassal king is openly antagonizing the imperial court, which is a heinous and unforgivable crime.

However, the old Jin King in front of him was different, and his identity ensured that he would not be punished in any way after killing himself.

"The villain admits that he made a mistake in judgment and made a bad decision, but I really didn't expect that the ghost doctor who first Yin Fuxiong turned against the water and finally became my killer weapon also rebelled."

Mao Xuechao knew that if he didn't find a good excuse, his life might really be lost.

So he immediately pointed the finger at Yin Fuxiong and the ghost doctor.

Anyway, they are not here at this time, and what he said is also the truth, and he is not afraid of the old Jin King in front of him.

"I will only deal with the matter of Yin Fuxiong and the ghost doctor, you also know that now His Majesty's plan Originally, I wanted to use Mu Junhe's death to attract everyone's attention, so as to help the implementation of our plan, but now you not only failed to succeed, but also scared the snake, and even leaked out the old man's bottom, do you say you deserve to die."

The old Jin King once again kicked Mao Xuechao's head.

Although Mao Xuechao knew that the old Jin King was in a state of rage at this time, he still didn't have the courage to dodge.

So his head was firmly kicked by the old Jin King.

Suddenly, Mao Xuechao felt that his whole face was numb all of a sudden.

As the numbness slowly subsided, the pain began to get worse.

Mao Xuechao endured the pain from his nose and continued to kneel straight.

"Humph!"

The old Jin King snorted coldly, and then let out a long sigh of relief.

"Forget it, it's over, it's useless for me to kill you, your head will be stored on you first, and when it happens, Shengheng will deal with you."

After the old Jin King said coldly, he turned his head to look at the doctor who was treating Qiu Fengyu.

"How's he doing?"

The doctor had seen the old man's furious kicking of the snow tide before, so now when the old Jin King asked him a question, he couldn't help but tremble.

"Back to the prince's words, Lord Qiu is really seriously injured this time, I'm afraid it's ······"

"Humph, rubbish!"

The old Jin King said angrily when he heard this.

"The prince forgives the sin, there is really no way for the villain to be sparse!"

As he spoke, the doctor immediately fell to his knees and kept prostrating himself and begging for mercy.

"Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense here, since you can't save him, carry him out!"

The old Jin King looked at Qiu Fengyu on the ground, sighed softly, and then waved his hand at the doctor and the servant next to him.

When the doctor heard this, he immediately kowtowed and thanked him.

"Mang Qing, although you didn't succeed in killing Mu Junhe this time, your performance was good, and even if you killed and injured so many people, you didn't choose to betray me, this king has always been stingy with those who follow me loyally, and you can follow this king with peace of mind in the future."

After sending the doctor away, the old Jin King's originally angry face suddenly changed, and he praised Mang Qing with a pleasant face.

"It is Mangqing's honor to be able to serve the prince."

Although Mang Qing was dissatisfied with this old Jin King in his heart, he was His Majesty's own uncle after all.

Since he has chosen to go out of Shi, he will inevitably need the support of this old Jin King in the future, so he has to show a grateful look.

"In that case, you should first go to my guard camp to take a post and take care of the injuries on your body, and Jinling City will be very lively in the next short time."

The old Jin King smiled at the corner of his mouth and said slowly.

Mang Qing below couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he had heard some rumors from Qiu Fengyu and Mao Xuechao before.

Although the two of them didn't speak very clearly at that time, Mang Qing still heard some clues from their words.

This includes a part of the plan to create chaos in Jinling City.

At that time, Mang Qing could not understand why the old Jin King was one of the elders of Zongzheng Temple, but he wanted to arrange for people to cause chaos in Jinling City.

But now it seems that the old Jin King is doing this clearly to compete with some people in Zongzheng Temple, and even to put it more bluntly, the imperial court is likely to take this opportunity to suppress Zongzheng Temple.

After all, the disagreement between Mu Junhe and Emperor Shengheng is already known to the world.

And the reason why Mu Junhe was able to escape the pursuit of the imperial court was also mediated by some people in Zongzheng Temple.

Thinking about these Mangqing, I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Although a person like himself who has no foundation in participating in a battle of this level is to act as cannon fodder.

But as long as you can hold on until the dust settles on both sides, the benefits are not ordinarily rich.

And in his mind, this time the matter was formulated by the old Jin King and Emperor Shengheng together, and they all said that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.

Therefore, the probability of success of this matter is basically 100%, and even if there are any twists and turns, it is impossible to change this outcome.

So it's a great benefit for him to be lucky enough to be involved in this matter this time.

"The prince is assured, Mangqing will definitely do whatever it takes for the prince."

Mang Qing immediately knelt down on one knee and touched his chest with a sincere face.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

The old Jin King laughed and said three good words in a row.

Jinling City Aoki Inn

"I have told you all my things openly and honestly today, and I have also turned my back on the old Jin King because of you, so can we be counted as a group now?"

After the ghost doctor finished telling the reasons why he took a fancy to Li Yi and Mu Junhe, he did not shy away from asking this question.

"Actually, it's not up to me whether we can be counted as a group or not, as long as you sincerely want to join us, you are one of us."

Li Yi said without thinking about the problem of the ghost doctor.

"But our ugly words are ahead, if one day you want to part ways with us, you can just say it and don't stab me in the back."

Li Yi slowed down and added.

"Don't worry about this, even if I really have to leave one day, I will not poison his people just like this time when I turned my back on the old Jin King."

The ghost doctor said with a smile.

"Can I join you then?"

At this time, Yin Fuxiong on the side also asked.

"As I said, you can join in as long as you want."

"Yin Fuxiong, since you also want to join, then I have to remind you, you are not like this, you are a lonely person, you have a family, and the old Jin King is not a good stubble, now you choose to abandon the dark and turn your back on him, he is likely to retaliate against you."

The ghost doctor then reminded.

After being reminded by the ghost doctor, Yin Fuxiong couldn't help but be surprised.

Before, he chose to stand with Li Yi and Mu Junhe entirely because he talked about morality.

But now, after being reminded by the ghost doctor, he realized that his actions were really likely to affect his family.

"This ······"

Yin Fuxiong couldn't help but become anxious when he heard that his family might be retaliated against by the old Jin king.

Seeing that Yin Fuxiong was a little at a loss for a while, Li Yi patted him on the shoulder and comforted.

"Brother Yin, don't be too anxious, although the old Jin King may choose to take revenge on your family, but after all, your family is still in Bingzhou, he wants to arrange people to go to Bingzhou, and it will not be able to arrive in a while, even if it is a flying pigeon to pass the book, it will take time, you just need to hurry up and return to Bingzhou now, arrange your family in advance, then the old Jin King has no way there."

Yin Fuxiong, who was originally very anxious, couldn't help but burn his eyes when he heard this.

"Rest assured, Bingzhou is not the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and if the old Jin King wants to deal with your family, he will definitely not be able to mobilize the people, he must arrange people to act secretly, so that their actions will inevitably be restricted to a certain extent."

Mu Junhe also spoke slowly at this time.

"Thank you! Yin will rush back to Bingzhou now, and when Yin has arranged his family, he will come back immediately to serve you. ”

Yin Fuxiong endured the pain in his arm, stood up, and then solemnly bowed to Li Yi, Mu Junhe, and the ghost doctor.

"Brother Yin, be careful all the way, if there are really any difficulties that are difficult to solve, you can consider finding the local Nansi, maybe they can help you!"

Li Yi immediately took out a small waist card from his arms, which was given to him by Jiang Gonggong of the Nansi Division when they were in Anzhou before.

"Li Gongzi, this old Jin King is the uncle of Emperor Shengheng, wouldn't you let Yin Fuxiong go to Nansi to help you?"

When the ghost doctor saw that Li Yi had given a piece of Nansi's waist card to Yin Fuxiong, he asked puzzledly.

"Ghost doctor, you don't have to be so strange, in fact, my junior brother also has his reasons for doing this, I just said that if the old Jin King wants to make a move against Yin Fuxiong's family, he will definitely not act in a big way, after all, it is too embarrassing for a dignified vassal king to do something to the family of a person in the rivers and lakes."

Mu Junhe said with a slight smile.

"But as long as the people under the old Jin King explain the matter to Nan Si clearly, Nan Si is very likely to defect, and then Brother Yin will be passive!"

The ghost doctor was still worried that Nansi would fight back at a critical time.

"Ghost doctor, you don't know anything about Nansi, if you want to say which people the emperor trusts the most in this world, it must be the Nansi and Beisi controlled by the eunuchs, and the people of Nansi and Beisi also know very well that their greatest value lies in the emperor's trust, and once they contact the vassal king privately or even obey the orders of the vassal king, how do you think Emperor Shengheng will deal with them?"

Mu Junhe asked the ghost doctor with a smile.

"But the old Jin King is the uncle of Emperor Shengheng after all, and they are still on the same front!"

The ghost doctor still felt that it was inappropriate.

"Nope! Ghost doctor, your idea is wrong, the vassal king is the vassal king, and the old Jin king is actually the vassal king. ”

Mu Junhe said with a sneer.

Maybe outsiders can't understand this sentence, but as a former member of the royal family surnamed Mu, he knows very well that the people's father, son, filial piety, brothers, friends and brothers are the most ridiculous things in the eyes of the royal family.
