"Come here, get a ladle of water for Mr. Mo!"
Prince Liang and Han Anguo looked at each other. Neither of them had figured out what Mo Shi wanted to do, but since he had made this promise, they could only wait and see.
Although even Liang Wang is not optimistic about Mo Ji now, since Liu Deng dared to make such a bet with those gentlemen, he must have absolute confidence in this gentleman.
Soon a palace maid came over with a ladle of water, and everyone's eyes were focused on Mo Yan.
Yuan Ang really couldn't understand. Since this guy dared to make such a promise, he should obviously be confident of winning. However, Yuan Ang couldn't figure out how to use this ladle of water even if he tried hard. Woolen cloth?
Could it be that Liu Deng and Mo Ji colluded? Was there something done in the water?
No, this matter can't be made so easy for him!
Yuan An also figured it out. Today was a good opportunity to make a name for himself. If this guy really succeeded in this matter, the Mohist school would surely appear in front of everyone again soon.
From the looks of it, Liu Deng seemed to be very interested in recruiting this guy Mo. No matter what, he couldn't let the two of them hook up.
The purpose of King Wu sending Liu Yishui this time was to capture the Mohist family and use it to crack Liu Deng's salt-making technique.
The reason why they have been looking for trouble for Mo Ji since they came here is to provoke Mo Ji away, and then they can look for other opportunities.
But unexpectedly, this matter seemed to have begun to develop in an unpredictable direction.
According to their understanding, Liu Deng and Mo Ji have never met each other before, but why is Liu Deng so confident in Mo Ji? Could it be possible that the two of them had been in contact in private?
But Mo Ji is about to take action. No matter what, he must destroy Mo Ji's good deeds today.
"Sir, wait a minute, are there any tricks in the water?"
Yuan An and Liu Yishui looked at each other, then stood up and said.
"Hahahaha, sir, you must be looking down on me too much. Although I, Mo, am not a saint, I still don't bother to use such tricks. If sir, you are worried, just come up and check!"
Liu Deng didn't expect Yuan Ang to be so cooperative today. This was really a divine assist.
"If everyone has no objections, then forgive Yuan Ang for being unreasonable!"
Yuan An said and bowed his hands to everyone. Unlike other scholars in Liang Yuan, Yuan An was a strategist.
It is not surprising at all for politicians to go back on their word and make money by breaking their promises. There is no word of etiquette and shame in their dictionary.
As long as the goal can be achieved, why should we pay attention to the means?
"It doesn't matter. If you don't believe me, sir, just check it out yourself. This will save you the trouble of being accused of collusion between me and the giant if you lose!"
Although there is still a smile on King Liang's face, his tone has begun to sound a little bit complaining. The person delivering the water is from King Liang. If you say this, isn't that openly questioning King Liang's character?
"Your Highness, forgive me! Yuan Ang definitely had no intention of questioning His Highness!"
In any case, this is also on the territory of King Liang. No matter how arrogant Yuan An is, he still has to give King Liang some face.
"Okay, okay, sir, you've done everything, and you still ask me to do these things, so please ask sir to do a test!"
Liu Wu is not a three-year-old child. You have done everything and yet you are still pretending to be here.
Seeing that Liu Wu was a little angry, Yuan Ang felt a little depressed, but he didn't want to give Mo Dian any flattering gift in public.
After Yuan An bowed his hand to King Liang again, he strode forward and came to Mo Ji's side. He picked up the ladle of water and put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it. It seemed that there was really no smell, and then he carefully dipped it with his fingers. A little, and licked it with the tip of my tongue.
Finally, he uneasily picked up the water ladle and took a sip, carefully distinguishing the taste of the water.
This is originally clean water that has just been drawn from a well. How could there be any other smell?
"Sir, can you finish the inspection?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in the corner of Mo Yan's mouth.
"There is indeed no problem, but Yuan Mou thought too much and please forgive me!"
"Since no problem has been found, sir, please continue!"
There is no problem with the water, so let’s wait to see Mo Yan’s performance. Even Liang Wang Liu Wu’s eyes widened.
"Then I'll make a fool of myself!"
After Mo Yan finished speaking, he picked up the empty bottle from the table next to him, poured water into it, and began to adjust the angle towards the sun.
After seeing Mo Ji's actions, Liu Deng felt completely relieved. It seemed that the Mo family was indeed not in vain.
Liang Wang Liu Wu couldn't help his curiosity, so he came forward and stood next to Mo Yan, staring carefully at the bottle with green beans hanging on it.
Mo Yan didn't say anything, just held the bottle quietly. As time passed, Liu Wu suddenly discovered that the silk thread hanging in the bottle suddenly started to emit green smoke!
"It's amazing, it's amazing!"
Liu Wu's eyes widened. Mo Yan obviously didn't do anything and was still far away from the bottle. How did he light the thread in the bottle?
After Liu Wu shouted this voice, the people next to him could no longer stand and swarmed up.
But everyone stood aside consciously and did not block Mo Dian.
In front of everyone's eyes, the string with three threads mixed together slowly emitted a burst of smoke, and finally broke like this...
"Dang-cang-"
A crisp sound sounded, and everyone was dumbfounded...
Even Mo Yan breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. This was not from heat, but from nervousness...
Only Mo Dian himself knew that the clothes on his back were soaked through. If he hadn't accomplished what he had done today, the Mo family would have never been able to turn around. Fortunately, with the blessing of the founder, this The results were surprisingly good.
"Hahahaha, it seems that I have won a great victory today!"
Liu Deng burst out laughing, looking very pleased with himself. He had gained the most today. More than thirty gentlemen in Liang Yuan all owed him a promise today.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness, the King of Dai. This kindness and virtue will be forever unforgettable by everyone in the Mo family. Please accept my worship, Your Highness, the King of Dai!"
Although everyone's faces were not good-looking, Mo Yan felt much better. Now that he had achieved his goal, he did not forget the well digger. Now it was time to thank Liu Deng properly.
