Mo Zeshen looked at the cunning Ji Wuxuan in front of him and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
At this time, there was another movement behind the screen. He looked back and the movement disappeared immediately.
Ji Wuxuan, an idiot, thought he was trying to please himself, but he didn't want Fang Quan to listen carefully behind his back.
It's just that these words are not enough. They have not met his expectations and need to add more fire.
Mo Zeshen opened his thin lips slightly, continued to look at Ji Wuxuan, and said, "You said that Dong Chengbin and Fang Quan are colluding. What collusion do they have?"
Ji Wuxuan hesitated for a moment, "This..."
Mo Zeshen's voice was cold, "Speak quickly!"
Ji Wuxuan immediately fell to the ground, his mind spinning rapidly as he recalled the scene in his dream in detail.
He said cautiously: "Because Dong Chengbin wanted to replace my eldest brother, and Fang Quan was his accomplice. Everything was conspired by the two of them!"
Mo Ze was stunned for a moment, "How do you say that?"
Ji Wuxuan swallowed his throat, and continued to talk to Mo Zeshen according to what he said in his dream: "Your Highness, King Chen, do you still remember that you were in danger in Fangcheng County? Those people were sent by Fang Quan's people. They dressed up as guards of Zhennan Palace and put the blame on my eldest brother. And Jiming Mountain, those who suddenly rushed out and injured many of your guards were Fang Quan and the others. He had long colluded with Dong Chengbin to plot against me. Big brother’s throne!”
After listening to his words, Mo Zeshen nodded, with no big emotion on his face.
He knew all these things, and he had informed them all after Dong Chengbin decided to surrender. Not only that, but he also expressed all his thoughts.
During the crisis in Fangcheng County and Jiming Mountain, Dong Chengbin originally wanted Lu Qingtang's life so that he could suffer. After hearing this at first, Mo Zeshen was indeed a little angry and felt that Dong Chengbin was vicious.
But thinking back, this was probably retribution, so he didn't dwell on these things. After all, Dong Chengbin had changed his ways.
He was very open-minded in his heart, but Fang Quan's legs behind the screen weakened. If Yu Bai hadn't been supporting him, he would have kneeled on the ground.
At first, he was angry when he heard Ji Wuxuan say that he had given drugs to him, causing him to lose such a big person. Later, he said that he had colluded with Dong Chengbin, and he wanted to rush out of the screen and beat Ji Wuxuan.
But now, he didn't dare.
He was responsible for the two assassinations of Mo Zeshen. He could not deny this, but he also acted under orders.
His Majesty's decree was for him to cooperate with Dong Chengbin. Except for Mo Zeshen who was present, he naturally listened to Dong Chengbin and did whatever Dong Chengbin asked him to do.
The first time in Fangcheng County, his men disguised themselves as guards of the Zhennan Palace to assassinate Mo Zeshen, but they could not really kill him, they could just scare him and let him know that he was being hunted by people from the Zhennan Palace. . But Dong Chengbin’s death order must be to execute the woman.
Fang Quan has been in Nanzhou for a long time, so naturally he doesn't know about Lu Qingtang. Later, when he learned that Mo Zeshen actually blocked an arrow for Lu Qingtang, he guessed that Lu Qingtang's identity was unusual. Later, he made some secret inquiries and found out that Lu Qingtang was Princess Chen.
Fang Quan was frightened for a while, but he did not dare to offend Dong Chengbin. So in the subsequent Operation Jiming Mountain, his original intention was to let Mo Zeshen discover Ji Wuhen's hiding cave. Unexpectedly, Dong Chengbin once again proposed to kill Lu Qingtang. Fang Quan didn't dare to listen. He just ordered his men to force Lu Qingtang down the mountain. He didn't dare to hurt her in the slightest.
He was just a down-and-out man from a humble family. He could only gain a foothold in Nanzhou by his two-faced tactics. A big shot like Mo Zeshen wouldn't even dare to take a second look, let alone offending him.
But why did the emperor choose him to assist Dong Chengbin, and now he was tricked by Dong Chengbin.
Fang Quan was filled with anger and looked at Ji Wuxuan behind the screen fiercely.
It was all him who made himself embarrassed in front of others and was caught by Mo Zeshen.
Recalling that yesterday, Mo Zeshen was polite to him. No matter how arrogant he was, he was not angry, but it did not mean that he would still be like this after knowing the truth.
He had long heard that Mo Zeshen was cruel, and his methods of punishment were all kinds of strange. Although he had wondered what those would be like, he did not want to be the one who was punished.
But now, he may face it soon.
Through the screen, he looked at the torture instruments placed in front of Ji Wuxuan. These might be used on him soon. And he may be like Dong Chengbin and have to lie down on the bed to sleep, maybe even worse than him...
Fang Quan didn't dare to think anymore, and his legs went weak again. This time Yu Bai didn't catch him, letting him kneel on the ground with a "plop".
Mo Zeshen, who was in front of the screen, heard the sound of kneeling down. He turned his head and glanced behind him, then continued to look at Ji Wuxuan.
He smiled and said, "I still need to think carefully about your words."
"After all, we are a family. This king will not punish you, but this matter must always be explained to the Zhennan Palace."
As he spoke, Mo Zeshen stood up and looked at him with cold eyes.
Ji Wuxuan trembled, but still forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty is right, we are all one family."
He swallowed his throat, "Prince Chen, what I just said is true. Dong Chengbin also instigated me to tell His Majesty the true relationship between my eldest brother and Princess Chen some time ago. I strongly opposed it at the time. Once this happens If you let His Majesty know, His Majesty will definitely be suspicious of you, we are a family, how could I harm my own family."
Mo Zeshen did not respond to his nonsense, and waved his hand, signaling Yuan Lang to take him away.
Yuan Lang bent down, grabbed his collar and carried him out of the torture chamber.
When Mo Ze saw that Ji Wuxuan was gone, he turned around and said to Yu Bai behind the screen: "Take Mr. Fang down, and serve him well. Don't let Mr. Fang suffer any injustice."
Yu Bai behind the screen said "yes", then pulled Fang Quan and exited through the back door.
Fang Quan wanted to say something else, but his mouth was blocked and he could only let Yu Bai drag him out of the back door.
After the two of them left, Dong Chengbin "woke up" on the small bed behind the screen. Mo Zeshen stepped forward and looked at him with a smile. Dong Chengbin felt hairy all over.
He heard clearly what Ji Wuxuan just said, and he admitted that he had thought about those little thoughts, even more than once. In order to avenge himself, Mo Xinyuan, and the unborn child, he really wanted to kill Lu Qingtang.
Not only would he kill Lu Qingtang, but he would also make Mo Ze deeply sad and live in pain for the rest of his life.
Everything in the past made him regret it, but now there is no use regretting it. What should have happened has happened, but fortunately there were no serious consequences.
He breathed out a breath and raised his eyes to look at Mo Zeshen, "I couldn't help you with what happened before. If the prince doesn't feel relieved, you can kill me. But Ning Xinran is still pregnant, please let me go." she……"
He swallowed as he spoke, and his voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.
