ther has always wanted to put the label of treason on her daughter. But from the moment I was born until now, I have never even thought of being a traitor to Xiliang.""As the princess of Xiliang, I am...Seeing the silver needles flying towards him, Lei Hong instinctively widened his eyes, his whole body stiff with fear. He thought he was going to die today for sure.

After all, with his current skill, he couldn't possibly dodge the flying silver needles.

At the critical moment, Liu the physician didn't know whether he regretted it or not. He actually took another action, throwing out another silver needle even faster. The two silver needles collided in mid-air, changing their direction.

In a short while, two silver needles fell to the ground.

Lei Hong swallowed nervously, regaining his composure after a moment. His eyes were fixed on the silver needle that had landed not far away. Only then did he look at Dr. Liu, his brow furrowed in suspicion. "Dr. Liu, you... you just tried to kill me"

Doctor Liu, however, smiled. "How could that be I was just trying to test your reaction time."

"…"

Lei Hong was about to roll her eyes.

Really thinks he didn't feel the killing intent from his heart just now

And Dr. Liu, as if he couldn't see Lei Hong's shock on his face, laughed again and continued:

"It's not that I'm saying, Lei Hong, your reaction time now is truly appalling. If someone had attacked the young master just now, you wouldn't have been able to stop them at all. You can't go on like this."

“......”

Lei Hong only felt that this person was talking nonsense. Did he think that after saying this, the other person would actually believe him

Does he really think he's a three-year-old

But since Dr. Liu wants to put on a show, he has to cooperate, right

"Well, after a moment of silence, he replied, 'Doctor Liu, I've been trying my best, you know. If it weren't for the Prince insisting that the Crown Prince research medicine every day, I and the Crown Prince would have been diligently practicing martial arts long ago.'"

At this point, he no longer cared about Doctor Liu's attempt to kill him earlier. He ran up to Doctor Liu with a carefree air, lowering his voice and muttering:

"Doctor Liu, it seems like the prince listens to your advice. Perhaps you could offer him some sound counsel and persuade him to stop pressuring his son to work on those explosives day and night Wouldn't that be best"

Doctor Liu gave him a glance and casually raised his hand to tap his head, saying, “What kind of person is Your Highness, and what kind of identity am I How could I possibly persuade Your Highness You’re really giving me trouble.”

"Doctor Liu, just give it a try."

As for Lei Hong's words, Dr. Liu didn't respond. He turned and walked to where Mo Junyi had just been standing, looking thoughtfully at the arsenic on the table.

Mo Junyi said that making explosives requires arsenic. But Mo Junyi seemed to have forgotten, when the Northern Border Princess was still here, she trusted him.

Although he wasn't involved in the development of explosives, he had heard that the Princess Consort of Beijang had ordered a large quantity of arsenic.

So, is arsenic really a part of the explosives formula, or is this just a pretext the Crown Prince has concocted

If the crown prince deliberately fabricated an excuse, what would he need these arsenic for

Arsenic is highly poisonous. If the prince had other ideas, who would he want to use this arsenic against

Perhaps Mo Yunchen also didn't believe that arsenic was truly needed in the explosives, which is why he kept a close eye on Mo Jinyi day and night.

Leihong's lingering gaze remained fixed on Doctor Liu, and seeing that he showed no intent to strike, Leihong finally let out a sigh of relief.

He almost, he almost lost his life here.

This Dr. Liu, ever since that masked man appeared in the camp, he has become rather cold-blooded. It seems like when the young master returns, he'll have to discreetly remind the young master to be more wary of Dr. Liu.

However, this trip called the young master away, I wonder what that Mo Yunchen wants to do to him

……

And at this time, Mo Junyi, who was being remembered by Lei Hong, had already arrived at Mo Yunchen's camp.

As he had guessed, in the tent were his father, King Moyuncheng, the masked man, and Sun Gaoting whom he had met last night.

Sun Gao Ting gave him a long, deep look, then turned to Mo Yun Chen, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Mo Yunchen was also looking at him, and at this moment, he gave him a 'calm down' look.

But before he could speak to Mo Junyi, he subconsciously glanced at Yun Ruishi beside him.

Yun Rui's eyes were still indifferent, he couldn't tell what Yun Rui was thinking.

Mo Junyi acted as if he couldn't see the exchanges between them, and seemed oblivious to the tension in the air.

He bowed politely to Mo Yunchen at this moment, but as for Yun Ruishi and Sun Gao Ting, he pretended not to know who they were and didn't even bother to bow to them.

Sun Gao Ting was fine, but when he saw that Mo Jun Yi hadn't greeted Yun Rui with the proper ceremony, Mo Yun Chen immediately got anxious. His eyes were filled with anger as he glared at Mo Jun Yi fiercely and gritted his teeth, "Disobedient son, why don't you bow to him"

Looking at him like this, one would think Mo Junyi was his father's murderer rather than his son.

As for his attitude and emotions, Mo Junyi treated them as if they were invisible, his heart remaining completely unmoved.

He calmly bowed, "To Father King, it's not that this son doesn't understand propriety and decorum. It's just that this son truly doesn't know how to address these... two gentlemen."

I don't know what was wrong with Mo Yunchen today. Although Mo Jinyi didn't do anything today that would make anyone angry, just one sentence from him could completely infuriate Mo Yunchen.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yunchen sprang up from his chair and stomped over to Mo Junyi, his face flushed with anger. Without a word, he slapped Mo Junyi hard across the face.

"!"

Sun Gao Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, unable to help but ponder, what was this Mo Yun Chen trying to do

No matter what, Mo Junyi is his son. He can't just attack his own son for no reason, right

Couldn't he be putting on a show for her

What was he trying to achieve by doing that

But before he could figure it out, what happened next surprised him even more.

I thought that after being beaten by Mo Yunchen, Mo Junyi would just accept it. After all, the person who beat him was his father, so what could he do

No one expected that Mo Junyi, after a moment of silence, would slowly raise his head to look at Mo Yunchen. He asked in a voice devoid of emotion, "I wonder what I have done to anger my father"

Mo Yunchen gritted his teeth, "You yourself, are a mistake. Even if you fight alone, what can you do"

He truly believed that Mo Junyi was no match for him. After all, in his eyes, a father punishing his son was justified. Moreover, he completely outmatched Mo Junyi in terms of strength.

So he never felt like he had done anything to Mo Junyi.

The scene that followed shocked not only Sun Gao Ting in the audience, but also Mo Yun Chen himself, who was momentarily stunned and completely unresponsive.younger brother, ensuring their safety Do you know what consequences this desertion of the capital will bring"Before he came, Xunluo knew that when he appeared here with his brothers, the princess and...
