Chapter 390 - Confirmation of evidenceRight now, he had solid evidence of Zhong Lixian"s secret in his hands, so he could use this move of the Death Soldier.
"Your Royal Highness, have you decided so quickly?" Xuan Li was a little surprised. He knew that the King had been preparing for this long and thought that he would need some time to make it happen, but she didn"t expect that the King would make this move so quickly.
"That will depend on whether Zhong Lixian chooses to become This King"s enemy or ally!" Mu Jin said loudly.
The alliance between him and Zhong Lixian was still there. While they were allies, they were also their enemies.
Therefore, they were all on guard against each other. They wanted to catch the other party"s weakness, threaten them, and maximize their own benefits.
However, Zhong Lixian had spent so much effort, in the end, they had only restricted each other.
And precisely because he was Zhong Lixian"s ally, when Zhong Lixian found out about his true ident.i.ty, she would definitely not leak it out immediately. Before he obtained what he wanted, how could he possibly release such a huge piece of information?
He was fully focused on annexing Southern Yue!
However, he wanted his Seventh Uncle to watch helplessly as the river he s.n.a.t.c.hed from his father five years ago was taken away once more. Naturally, he had to pay a heavy price as well.
His five years of suffering and suffering were all to be repaid by his Seventh Uncle.
The weather on the second day was especially sunny with the sun shining brightly in the sky. The warm sunlight shone on people"s bodies and made them feel extremely comfortable. It gave people the feeling that spring was about to arrive.
Ning Zheyan"s fiery red clothes caught people"s eye under the bright sunlight. Her silky silky silky long hair was casually tied up with a strand of jade, a bouquet of beautiful plum blossom stuck into her hair. He looked just like a fairy who had transformed into his human form, leisurely walking under the sunlight.
Many of the maidservants who were walking had forgotten to look at the road. Some directly collided with the wooden pillars, while some dropped the wooden barrels in their hands onto the ground. Some of them even had their mouths agape, revealing stunned expressions.
Countless gazes all landed on Ning Zheyan"s body.
~ Is this the legendary Master Ning? In the portrait, he was already so beautiful, but now, he was even more so for a real person.
Ning Zheyan dragged her fiery robes as she walked slowly and elegantly in front of the servant girls. A bewitching yet cold smile hung from the corners of her mouth.
Wei Yuanwei"s lips curled up into a faint smile, and watched as Ning Zheyan walked in elegantly under the gazes of everyone present.
Under the sunlight, Ning Zheyan"s skin became even whiter, as though the capillaries under the skin could be clearly seen, while Ning Zheyan"s s.e.xy lips were filled with redness.
He, who was like that, revealed a sickly beauty. However, his beauty caused one"s heart to palpitate even more. He was like a ripe cherry, wishing for others to take a bite of him.
"Master Ning, did you not sleep well last night? An hour has already pa.s.sed since the agreement with This King! " Mu Jin"s pitch-black eyes merely glanced at Ning Zheyan for a moment before he looked once more at Wei Yuanwei"s face. The last few words were spoken with great emphasis.
The Plum Blossom was a flower that was difficult to control. If an ordinary person were to insert the Plum Blossom branch into their hair, it would only look out of place, but Ning Zheyan had perfectly described the plum blossom"s beauty, and at the same time, added a hint of a lovely stamen to her own face.
"I"m not a prince. As long as I wear a mask all day long, I can show off my appearance. After I get up, I should at least dress up a bit, right?" Ning Zheyan glanced at Mu Jin, her rosy lips slightly raised, as though she was showing off to Mu Jin.
As for Mu Jin, she merely glanced at Ning Zheyan with an indifferent gaze. Her dark and unfathomable eyes made it hard for people to guess what Mu Jin was thinking at this moment, "Today is not the day of my talent show, so Master Ning doesn"t need to be too particular.
This faint sarcasm immediately darkened Ning Zheyan"s face.
Maybe he was more beautiful than a woman, but he hated being compared to a woman the most.
Mu Jin"s venom was not something that could be dealt with in a day or two, but Ning Zheyan did not know of it.
Wei Yuanwei sat on the imperial concubine"s clothes, leaned on the cushions embroidered with longevity, and smiled at Ning Zheyan.
"Then please excuse me, Your Highness..." Ning Zheyan directly snorted coldly.
"Why does This King need to avoid it?" Mu Jin asked.
Ning Zheyan shrugged her shoulders, "Whatever!"
She then walked to Wei Yuanwei, "Princess, can you change your clothes …"
"What do you mean?" Before I, Wei Yuanwei, can even speak, Mu Jin has already stood up and looked at Ning Zheyan warily.
"Do you want me to treat you through my clothes? If I were to tie up the w.a.n.gfei and make her paralyze, you can"t blame me for that! " This time, Ning Zheyan replied with confidence, and even contempt.
The white-veiled servant girl had long since opened the box containing the Nine Reincarnation Soul Needles. She wrapped the cloth in long strings, each layer filled with silver needles of varying lengths, emitting a cold glow under the sunlight.
Looking at these needles, Mu Jin"s eyes darkened immediately. Such long needles had stabbed into Wei Yuanwei"s acupuncture points, it was hard to imagine how painful it would be.
But Mu Jin knew there was no other way.
Wei Yuanwei looked at these needles and the light in her eyes slightly changed. Compared to the blades, Wei Yuanwei felt that these silver needles that seemed different were the most terrifying.
And when Ning Zheyan saw the opened silver needle, she naturally thought of the pain of having her bloodline pierced through by the needle every seven days, and naturally left quite a few shadows in his heart.
"Your Royal Highness, can you go out?" Wei Yuanwei lifted her eyes and looked at Mu Jin with a calm expression.
However, Mu Jin did not seem to be willing to leave and asked Ning Zheyan, "Are all these needles going to be inserted into the w.a.n.gfei"s body?"
If possible, he wanted to bear this pain in Wei Yuanwei"s stead.
"No need!" Ning Zheyan answered very quickly: "But each acupoint must be pierced!"
As for exactly how many would be needed, Ning Zheyan wasn"t sure either, because... There were really a lot of them.
"Do I need to do it all over my body?" Mu Jin frowned and asked.
Ning Zheyan cast a sidelong glance at Mu Jin, "No need, if Your Highness is worried that I will ruin esteemed w.a.n.gfei"s reputation, then I will clean up and return to my Yanyu Manor. I am indeed unwilling to stay in this c.r.a.ppy Duke Palace for too long!"
Ning Zheyan did not forget to bury Evil King"s Mansion as she spoke.
Mu Jin"s face turned cold. Although he felt uncomfortable seeing Wei Yuanwei"s body from a man"s point of view, this was not the time to make a fuss about it.
