Chapter 202: Fifth Prince, I'm Afraid
his legs not fully healed and the poison in his body yet to be cured.Mo Yunjing walked up to him and rubbed his head, "A man shouldn't cry easily. Take good care of your aunt for me. If she is wronged...After listening to Yun Yi finish recounting the events, Mo Yun Jing's gaze, as deep as a cold abyss, fell upon those military inspectors.
Just looking at Mo Yunjing's eyes, these song supervisors and inspectors were truly frightened. However, they couldn't escape at this time. Firstly, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to. Secondly, once they had the thought of running away, Mo Yunjing was very likely to accuse them of dereliction of duty and offense against their reputation, directly convicting them!
However, they were still overthinking things. Now that Mok Yung Jing wanted to do something to them, he simply did it without bothering to make excuses.
I saw Mo Yunjing close the list. He stood up impassively, looking down at Yun Yi who was kneeling on the ground, "Get up, drag them all out!"
"Yes," Yun Yi immediately got up and called for his men to take those so-called supervisory officers away.
These people instantly turned pale with fright, especially when they were pushed onto the execution platform, trembling all over.
Mo Yunjing sat in the main seat, his eyes cold and fixed on the person on the execution platform. His gaze was as if he were looking at a dead person.
At this moment, under the scaffold, a group of Northern Border soldiers stared intently at those military supervisors. Thinking about their atrocities and how their presence led to their defeat, causing them to lose so many brothers, they couldn't help but wish to chop off these people's heads immediately!
Yun Yi had them bound to the execution platform. Each one of them was filled with fear and anger. They could see that Mo Yun Jing meant business this time. Now, they were starting to reason with Mo Yun Jing and even tried to use the emperor's name to intimidate him.
No matter what they said, no matter how they pleaded, Mo Yunjing still sat expressionlessly in the central commander's position on the stage. Nothing they said could stir a ripple in him.
One of the supervisors roared at Mo Yunjing, "Prince of Beijang! What are you doing now We were sent here by the Emperor himself, you have no right to deal with us!"
Another person shouted in agreement, “That’s right! King Beijang, what you’re doing is clearly showing self-importance and harboring ill intentions. If this reaches the Emperor’s ears, you won’t get away with it. Don’t forget what happened to the prince!”
When he mentioned his elder brother, Mo Yunjing's eyes flashed with hostility, narrowing slightly.
But these people couldn't see the killing intent in his eyes, and they continued to roar, "King of Beijang, don't you fear that we will report to the Emperor that you disobeyed his decree and are a traitor!"
Mo Yunjing listened with a calm expression for a few moments, but he remained silent. His army of hundreds of thousands couldn't contain themselves and roared in unison, "You are nothing but traitors, harming the country and its people! You deserve to die!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Feeling the killing intent of these people, these military supervisors finally panicked completely. When they wanted to say something, Mo Yunjing wouldn't give them a chance.
Only then did Mo Yunjing's seemingly calm eyes glance at them, and he calmly threw a military order to the ground, saying lightly: "Slash!"
Now, these supervisors and inspectors were instantly terrified, on the brink of death they blurted out curses, but their cries were drowned out by the roar of the soldiers.
They were held down by the executioner, their heads pinned under his blade. It came down with a flash of steel, and blood splattered everywhere.
Let someone else handle the rest. Mo Yunjing and Yun Yi returned to camp, entered the tent, and Yun Yi spoke first, "Today, Your Highness had them all executed. Once this news reaches the court, those old fools will definitely not let it go. The emperor will also become even more wary of Your Highness."
Mo Yun Jing's voice was sharp and magnetic as he said, "Others' opinions don't matter, right now I only care about my brother's life or death!"
Yun Si also came in at this moment, bowing and saying, "Your Highness, a fast horse from the capital just arrived with news. The Emperor has issued an imperial decree, ordering Your Highness to defeat the enemy forces and reclaim the lost territory."
Mo Yunjing's lips curled into a hint of mockery. He didn't care about the imperial decree, but just looked at Yun Si Dao, "How is your brother"
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has been imprisoned in the death cell. Our people are unable to get close to him at present. However, Master Jiang Qingyang from the Ministry of Officials sent a letter to Your Highness through someone else. Master Jiang should have had the opportunity to see the Crown Prince."
Here it is:"Take it."
Yun Si immediately sent the letter up, Mo Yun Jing opened it without a word and the more he read, the darker his face became.
Jiang Qingyang had indeed seen the crown prince. In her letter, she said that the crown prince's situation was very bad. He was seriously ill and no one could cure him. He wasn't even given enough food every day. The crown prince's life in prison was unbearable.
Jiang Qingyang wanted to help, but the emperor's people were watching him closely. He didn't dare act rashly for fear of exposing his identity.
Jiang Qingyang's letter clearly stated his intention: he wanted Mo Yunjing to use this battle as an opportunity to make demands of the emperor. Otherwise, the current state of the Crown Prince wouldn't last long.
Mo Yunjing put the letter aside. He wore a grim expression and remained silent for a moment before turning to Yun Si, "Yun Si, take my personal letter back to the capital immediately and tell the emperor, if he wants me to attack and defeat the enemy country, he must release my elder brother first. Otherwise... I will attack the capital with the enemy army!"
This means rebellion!
Yun Yi and Yun Si looked at each other, both revealing gratified smiles. Their prince had finally understood!
That day, Yun Si hurried back to the capital with Mo Yunjing's handwritten letter.
In the dead of night, Mo Yun Jing suddenly fell ill and lost consciousness within his tent.
No one noticed he was gone all night until the next day when Yun Yi came to call him and saw that he wasn't responding. He then cautiously rushed inside.
Seeing Mo Yunjing lying on the ground, Yun Yi's face changed drastically. He quickly called his men to carry Mo Yunjing to bed.
The Ministry of War's Physician arrived soon. After taking his pulse, the physician turned ashen white and didn't know how to face Mo Yunjing's condition.
He was poisoned, the poison is spreading now, if it's not controlled in time, then Fifth Prince...ropriate behavior against her.Who would have thought, Mo Yunjing would actually retort with such a sentence.His expression stiffened slightly, but he still nodded with gritted teeth and said, "Yes, if...
