In Zhenguo Temple, Gu Yuan told the whole story in a tactful way, as if he was replaying the story.
Finally, the story about the red maple falling into flames was finished, and the entire Zhenguo Temple fell silent.
Mo Xueliang was immersed in the beautiful love of the story, and was also shocked by the life and death catastrophe in Yuechan Town.
Mo Xueli looked at the white-robed monk in front of him and asked, "So, you are the monk Gu Yuan in the story, and it was you who sent the Zhenguo Sword back to Hao Kingdom for General Qin Bai?"
Gu Yuan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes!"
Mo Xueli sighed: "I didn't expect that there is such a sad and tearful story behind the red maple falling flames... By the way, you said that the red maple falling flames can actually kill the snake demon. Is it really that powerful? ?」
"This is a divine sword that can withstand thunder and lightning, and it was forged by the swordsmith Dong Fengye with all his heart and soul. It is naturally very important, and it is more than enough to deal with mere mortals!"
After listening to Gu Yuan's words, Mo Xueli suddenly changed his mind and said, "In that case, can I borrow the sword from General Qin Bai?"
Gu Yuan seemed to have expected that she would borrow the sword, so he was not surprised. He just smiled slightly and said, "Hongfeng Luoyan is the sword of Hao Kingdom. Not everyone can pull it out. Master Xun Feizi has already set a seal on this sword. You might as well give it a try. If you have a connection with this sword, you will naturally be able to pull it out. If you do not have a connection with it, you will not be able to move it at all."
After hearing this, Mo Xuelia nodded and said, "Okay, let me give it a try!"
After speaking, she mustered up all her strength, then held the hilt of the sword with both hands, trying to pull out the red maple falling flames, but no matter how hard she tried, the red maple falling flames remained motionless, as if they were welded to death.
Mo Xuelia refused to accept it, summoned up the energy in her Dantian, held the sword with both hands again, and was about to draw the sword again, but her face turned red, and the red maple falling flames remained motionless.
Standing behind her, Gu Yuan raised his lips and smiled slightly. He raised the string of purple beads with one hand and pinched the beads at will. A burst of purple spiritual power burst out from his body, lifting up his white monk's robe. rise.
The golden light of the seal on his forehead flashed, and a stream of spiritual power was injected into Mo Xuelia's back. At the same time, the formation seal that trapped Hongfeng Luoyan instantly rotated left and right, and a gossip phantom was instantly disintegrated.
Suddenly, the red sword was unsheathed by her at random, and a red aura was like a phoenix entering the world, slowly rotating on the sharp sword body.
Seeing the incomparable beauty of the sword, a powerful spiritual power seemed to pour into her body. Mo Xuelia felt a power that was stronger than human beings. This was the power given by the divine sword.
"That's great, Master! I actually pulled out the Zhenguo Sword!"
When Mo Xuelia turned around with her long sword in hand, Gu Yuan had long disappeared from the main hall of Zhenguo Temple. She was slightly startled, as if this monk had come just for her.
Perhaps Gu Yuan had already known that the country of Hao was going to suffer such a calamity, and he knew that the woman in front of him was the one who could change the fate of the country, so he came here to help.
Mo Xueli held Hongfeng Luoyan in her hand and had already made a plan in her mind. She thought that since this national sword was so powerful, why not go into the palace with the sword and assassinate King Hao Han Jingran, so that the number of casualties could be minimized.
She knew that if Han Cangyu wanted to get the throne, he would have to launch a coup. In this coup, a large number of people would shed blood and sacrifice. This is unavoidable no matter what, and they may not win in the end.
But if she can find a chance to sneak into the palace, just like when Han Cangyu assassinated King Zhao Teng, then their chances of success will be great. Even if she doesn't succeed, Han Cangyu still has a chance.
Similarly, she also knew that Han Cangyu would never agree to her taking the risk of entering the palace, so she did not plan to inform Han Cangyu about this.
On this day Concubine Lan entered the palace. Before entering the palace, Mo Xueli found her.
"What did you say? You want to enter the palace and assassinate Han Jingran?"
Concubine Lan was frightened. She did not expect that Mo Xuelia had such a wild temper and wanted to enter the palace to assassinate King Hao.
Mo Xueli's plan frightened Concubine Lan, but she said to her calmly: "Listen to me, can you successfully come up with the plan when you enter the palace this time?"
The Black Tiger Talisman is still unknown. I will sneak into the palace secretly with you, and then wait for an opportunity to assassinate Han Jingran. Once I succeed, Hao Kingdom will avoid a life and death catastrophe, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be able to fulfill his wish! "
Concubine Lan frowned and said, "But have you ever thought that if you fail, Han Jingran will definitely not let you live, and you will die! Are you... not afraid of death?"
Concubine Lan could no longer see through the Crown Princess in front of her. Why was she working so hard?
Mo Xueli said: "Death is not a terrible thing for me, Mo Xuelia. I was born in an escort agency. Maybe you don't know that escorts like us do a good job every time we go." My plan to die has already put life and death aside. If I can do something for the people of Hao Kingdom, so that His Highness the Crown Prince can avoid danger and successfully sit on the throne, then even death will be worth it to me. "
"You really love His Highness! I've known for a long time that you love him deeply, but I didn't expect it to be so deep... It's a pity that the person he loves deeply is not you and me. The person in his heart is that The owner of the agate bracelet, why do you have to fight so hard for him?"
Mo Xueli curled her lips and smiled, then looked at Concubine Lan and said, "Maybe you don't know me well enough. My trip is not for this man, but for the common people of this world. It has nothing to do with love. Who says women can't Can’t you do it for your family and your country?”
Concubine Lan only half understood what Mo Xueli said. In her mind, intrigues and fights for fame and fortune in the palace were common things for her.

She has never broken away from these rules and regulations to take a good look at the world, nor can she look at life from a higher perspective, nor can she understand Mo Xueliang's choice.
In her opinion, she was just an infatuated woman who insisted on dying for love. Unfortunately, even if she was shattered to pieces, she would never be able to win the love of His Highness the Crown Prince.
She, the childhood sweetheart cousin of His Highness the Crown Prince, has not been able to gain His Highness's love, so how could she, a commoner of the Yi Kingdom, possibly get it?
Concubine Lan got on the carriage entering the palace. In order to hide the signs of pregnancy, she specially wore a thicker dress with a red cloak covering the outside, making it difficult to detect that she was pregnant.
Behind the carriage was a group of followers, both men and women, all walking with their heads lowered.
Shortly after Concubine Lan's carriage entered the palace, it was intercepted by the guards on duty.
"Who's in the carriage?"
Concubine Lan's maid stepped forward and replied: "General Qi, the person in the car is Concubine Lan from the East Palace."
"Empress Lan Fei?"
Concubine Lan slightly raised the car curtain and glanced at the guard.
The guard hurriedly saluted her, then lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Concubine Lan.
Just when the guard was about to let him go, Han Jingran suddenly came over in a sedan.
"Then who is in the carriage?"
When Concubine Lan heard Han Jingran's voice, she couldn't help but tense up. She was trembling with fear, and the guards outside the door communicated with her.
"Your Majesty, the person in the sedan chair is Concubine Lan from the East Palace!"
Han Jingran's lips curled up slightly, as if a poisonous snake had found its prey and became excited.
Concubine Lan calmed down in the sedan chair, and then the maid helped her get out of the sedan chair and saluted Han Jingran.
Han Jingran had already stepped down from the sedan chair and was sizing up the entourage behind Concubine Lan's sedan chair.
"Why did Sister Lan Fei enter the palace?"
Concubine Lan replied: "Your Majesty, I heard that my aunt has been ill recently. As a niece, Concubine Lan is worried about her, so she went to the palace to visit her!"
Although Concubine Lan pretended to be calm, her feet in her skirt were still trembling while she was kneeling on the ground.
Han Jingran turned around and looked at the followers carefully, but Han Cangyu was not among them.
He then cast his gaze on Concubine Lan and said in a cold voice: "Sister Concubine Lan, my imperial brother is not living up to expectations, colluding with the country of Yi, and plotting evil intentions. As his family member, you are innocently affected, but you don't have to worry, you We have grown up together since childhood, and I understand your character best.
, gentle and quiet, if you don't want to wade into this muddy water and be implicated innocently, it's best to draw a clear line with him. If you see the figure of my second emperor brother, you must tell me to avoid being implicated! "
Concubine Lan lowered her head and replied: "Yes, thank you Your Majesty for your advice! Concubine Lan, remember this! You will be careful and act prudently in the future. Once there is news about Han Cangyu who rebelled against the Party, I will inform Your Majesty as soon as possible!"
Han Jingran smiled with thin lips, then looked at Concubine Lan, and suddenly frowned slightly: "Sister Concubine Lan seems to have become more charming recently!"
Lan Fei's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly explained: "I have been eating irregularly recently, and the pharmacist prescribed me several medicines for conditioning. It must be because of the medicine I took!"
Concubine Lan thought she would be fooled by this, but Han Jingran said: "What kind of pharmacist is that? What kind of nonsense medicine is he prescribing? I have a secret medicine for conditioning and nourishing, and I will give it to you!"
Concubine Lan was so frightened that she trembled. She quickly held it up with both hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the medicine!"
Unexpectedly, Han Jingran did not hand the medicine directly to her, but took it out of the box casually. He saw that it was a maroon red pill, which was about the size of a pigeon egg in his hand.
A proud smile appeared on his lips, and he whispered: "There are many precious Chinese medicines in this pill, including bezoar and five elements grass. You will be greatly nourished if you take it! But if a pregnant woman takes it, haha! Then! But it will slide!"
After Han Jingran finished speaking, she bent down slightly, stretched out her hand and placed the pill in front of Concubine Lan, gesturing for her to swallow it.
There was a sinister smile on his stern face, and his evil black eyes looked at her, as if he was waiting for her to collapse.
Concubine Lan's eyes were startled, and her face suddenly turned pale with fright.
She knew that Han Jingran was still doubting that she was pregnant, so she deliberately used the medicine to test herself, but if she didn't take it, the flaw would be revealed immediately.
Concubine Lan knelt on the ground, holding the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, raising her head and slowly opening her red lips.
Her red cloak trembled due to the slight trembling of her body, and the silver leaves hanging behind her bun also swayed slightly.
