"Congratulations to the host, Mu Yingchen's trust level has reached 100%, and the first phase of the ultimate assassin's mission has been completed!"
As the system sound ended, the steel forging technology also entered Muchuan's mind, becoming a memory he could never forget.
Putting aside the joy of acquiring steel forging technology for the time being, Muchuan now faces a big problem.
That's how to deal with the unconscious queen.
Looking at the unconscious queen, her pretty face still stained with tears could not help but make Muchuan feel compassion.
If she throws it out now, I'm afraid she will be found by the second prince's people soon.
For such a potential threat, the second prince would not leave it alone, and would definitely kill him brutally after a period of torture and ravage.
Thinking of this, Muchuan sighed helplessly.
Yes, we are still too soft-hearted.
"Master, even if you don't kill her, why do you still want to take her in?"
Seeing Muchuan carrying the queen up, Mu Yingchen pursed her lips, looking quite aggrieved.
"Does the master no longer want me and is he going to want this old and fat woman?"
Hearing this, Muchuan could not help but be stunned for a moment.
The queen is only in her thirties, which is indeed considered an older person in ancient times, but it has nothing to do with being old.
As for fat.
Muchuan glanced at Mu Yingchen's airport, and then at the queen's majestic appearance, and couldn't help but feel even more speechless.
"Xiaoying, what are you thinking about? How could I not want you?"
Muchuan smiled bitterly and comforted: "I only took this woman in because she was pitiful."
"You don't want this eldest sister to be tortured by bad guys, right?"
What Muchuan didn't expect was that Mu Yingchen shook his head without hesitation.
"Xiaoying hopes to kill her with his own hands."
"..."
In short, Muchuan still put the queen under house arrest for the time being, and repeatedly told Xiaoying not to mess around.
Muchuan's plan was to wait until the envoy group left Jincheng and take the queen with them.
Once they are far away from Jincheng, they will be placed in a safe place.
This can be regarded as the end of Muchuan's benevolence and righteousness.
After all, Muchuan felt a little guilty in his heart.
The mother and son, the prince, the queen, and their son just wanted to live, but he cut off all their livelihood options out of ambition.
Although Muchuan does not believe in gods and Buddhas, he occasionally has troubles with his conscience.
Therefore, if you can do good deeds, do as much good deeds as possible, and at least you can gain peace of mind.
In the following days, things developed quite smoothly.
The second prince quickly cleared away all the officials who opposed him in Jincheng. Those who are still alive now support his ascension to the throne and inherit the throne.
On this day, everyone in the envoy group was also invited to go to the palace to witness the birth of the new king.
To be honest, everyone in the envoy group was filled with bitterness.
They are neither deaf nor blind, they have witnessed the new king's methods in the past two days.
In their opinion, it would probably be no less difficult than the old king to negotiate with such an ambitious person.
At this moment, no one in the envoys knew that Muchuan had already reached an agreement with the second prince.
Although Silla is a small country, its enthronement ceremony is quite complicated.
After spending most of the day, the second prince finally officially became the King of Silla.
After the King of Silla took office, the first thing he did was to receive the envoys from the Tang Dynasty.
At the banquet, when the King of Silla expressed his willingness to join forces with the Tang Dynasty to attack Goguryeo, everyone was overjoyed.
They never expected that the mission would be solved so easily.
Seeing that the King of Silla seemed to be quite familiar with Muchuan, many people saw the clues.
I'm afraid that the reason why the King of Silla is so easy to talk to must have something to do with Muchuan.
In any case, no matter whether Muchuan has something to do with the great changes in Silla Kingdom, everyone in the envoy group doesn't care at all.
They only care about whether they can successfully complete the important tasks given by Li Shimin.
The envoy group swept away the previous gloom and took on a new and joyful atmosphere.
After the reception banquet, on their way back to the mansion, Muchuan was blocked by a group of ministers.
"Master Mu, you are really good at it!"
One person couldn't help but admired: "If Master Mu hadn't been wise and discerning, and realized that the second prince had an absolute victory, I would have been kicked out of the city long ago, let alone completing the mission now!"
"Hahaha! Yes, yes, Master Mu is worthy of being the number one scholar of the Tang Dynasty. His vicious eyes are far better than those of us."
Everyone was generous with their words of praise and praised Muchuan non-stop.
This was not purely flattering, but they were really impressed by Muchuan's abilities.
You know, they all focused on the prince from the beginning.
The results of it?
The prince was gone immediately.
If Muchuan hadn't established a relationship with the second prince in advance, they would have left Jincheng in despair.
The second prince would not look down upon a group of people who supported the prince, even if these people were envoys of the Tang Dynasty.
Hearing this, Muchuan smiled and waved his hand, "Everyone has said it before, Mu is just lucky."
Muchuan also knew very well that at the banquet just now, the Silla King's enthusiasm for him was far beyond ordinary people. Anyone who was not mentally retarded could tell that the two had a private friendship.
Therefore, Muchuan did not hide this.
Among the people laughing and joking, there was one person who looked embarrassed and seemed to have something to say.
This person's strange behavior naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Someone thought of something and hurriedly joked: "Master Lu, Master Mu really reversed the situation. It seems that Master Lu lost."
"By the way, I seem to remember that Mr. Lu and Mr. Mu have a bet?"
"Yes, yes, if Master Mu wins, Master Lu will give the whole family of women to Master Mu as slaves?"
These people were just watching the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, so they all brought it up one by one.
Listening to everyone's remarks, Muchuan was stunned for a moment.
He also suddenly remembered that there seemed to be such a bet.
However, Muchuan was just joking at that time, and he never thought about actually letting Mr. Lu's whole family be his slaves.
As a result, Muchuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "Everyone, that was just a joke I made with Mr. Lu, why should I take it seriously?"
Seeing that Muchuan, the gambler, said this, everyone had no choice but to give up.
Originally, they wanted to see Old Man Lu's jokes.
Although Old Man Lu is one of their colleagues, he has always had a weird temper, so everyone doesn't like him very much, and even dislikes him more.
Just when Muchuan and everyone thought that this matter was over.
What I didn't expect was that Old Man Lu flicked his sleeves, said a few words and left directly.
"I will never forget it. When I return to Chang'an, I will send all the female relatives to Mu Mansion!"
Old Man Lu had already walked away, but everyone still looked confused.
