"But Mingyu is a maid in the palace after all, and has been taken over by me. I used her three months of loyalty to make him a wish. Now that An Bingshan is dead, I don't think I have failed her.
Come on, she can be considered a member of this palace. If you want to marry Mingyu, it's not impossible, but you need to give me 50,000 taels of gold." Yao Mowan's eyes were as calm as an ancient well, and it was natural.
"How...how much?" Juechen stuttered.
"What? In your mind, Mingyu isn't even worth fifty thousand taels?" Yao Mowan ruthlessly mentioned the figure of fifty thousand taels again.
"If your Majesty has something to do, just give me your orders. Juechen will go through fire and water without hesitation!" Juechen is so smart. If he didn't have something to do, how would Yao Mowan have such leisure time to entertain himself.
Looking at Juechen kneeling on the ground, Yao Mowan glanced at Ye Junqing subconsciously, with a wanton curve on the corners of her lips. On one side, Ye Junqing suddenly felt sympathy for Juechen. These days, if you don't have money, you can't do anything.
Don't hang around in front of Yao Mowan.
"Having said that, last time you expressed your intention to me and the prince that you wanted to take Mingyu around, so why should I delay your trip?" Yao Mowan took retreat as an advance.
"Last time Juechen was kicked in the head by a donkey, and now the donkey is dead. Juechen is enlightened like a god, and suddenly becomes clear. It's rare that the prince and empress will not give up, Juechen will swear loyalty to the death!" Juechen wanted to cry, fifty thousand taels of gold
? Even if he were chopped up and sold as meat, it wouldn't be worth fifty taels. Now it's clear that Yao Mowan is threatening.
"Since you choose to work with me and the prince, I will not treat you badly, Tingyue." Yao Mowan glanced at Tingyue, and Tingyue understood it and immediately handed over the fifty thousand taels of gold silver notes.
It was handed into Juechen's hand.
"My subordinate Juechen has thanked the prince and the empress!" Juechen was filled with joy for this inducement.
"Well, I have ordered someone to build a house for you and Mingyu nearby. You go back and prepare to move there with Mingyu. If anything happens, I will send someone to call you." Yao Mowan waved her jade.
Pointing his finger, Juechen immediately retreated.
"Intimidation first, then inducement, can't you try another trick?" Ye Junqing shook his head, disapproving of Yao Mowan's method of winning people's hearts.
"Coercion is to let him know that he cannot refuse, and inducement is to let him know that there is no reason to refuse. Although this trick is not new, it is effective. Does the prince believe it? In this world, few people can escape Mo Wan's trick.
Very few." Yao Mowan was full of confidence, her eyes sparkling.
On the second day after Yan Nansheng stole the black ball back, Yao Mowan secretly sent Feng Yu Lei and Lightning to add some laxatives to the water source where Cao Kun's army was stationed. The so-called laxatives are not like poisons that can be tested with silver needles.
, and he was not afraid of harming innocent people. Later, he sprinkled some spices nearby that attracted snakes, insects, rats, and ants. This spice was prepared by Yin Xue. The smell could attract insects, but it was not easy to be discovered. After this, Cao Kun's army
Frequent situations occurred, and the marching speed was greatly slowed down.
After Yan Nansheng got back the black ball, Yao Mowan fulfilled her promise and cooked a meal for Yan Nansheng that night. Although the appearance was not as good as expected, Yan Nansheng still ate it with expectation.
After a few mouthfuls, it lasted for three days. Yao Mowan was also confused at that time. Later, the reason was found out. It turned out that Yao Mowan mistakenly took the remaining laxative as ingredients.
Now that we have the original object, the next step is to analyze the ingredients inside and do the same. However, something went wrong when Yao Mowan handed the black ball to Juechen.
"Is there such a big pill in the world?" The second Juechen took the black ball, he bit it without hesitation. As a result, his front teeth were cracked.
"These black balls are a kind of hidden weapon, and they are extremely powerful. Fortunately, Alliance Leader Yan stole five of them and brought them back. If you go to an open place and detonate one, you will know that they are extremely powerful. The battle between Mangyuan and Jeju is inevitable. If Cao Cao
Kun uses this kind of thing to deal with us, and our army has almost no chance of winning. Now I will give you this arduous task. You must develop the method and ingredients of this black ball within ten days. The safety of the entire wilderness will be at stake.
It's tied to you." Yao Mowan looked at Juechen expectantly, her tone a little heavy.
"Empress... Juechen is an alchemist!" Looking at the black ball in his hand, Juechen felt that it was far from his expertise! Could it be that it was just because it was round that Yao Mowan found herself? Juechen Yu
It was messy in the wind.
"Different paths lead to the same goal, I believe in you!" Yao Mowan believed that Juechen was well aware of the powerful relationship between them, so she stopped talking to him.
Ye Junqing, who was originally confident about this battle, was somewhat uneasy after learning about the existence of the black ball. The atmosphere in the entire wilderness was very tense. As a precaution, Yao Mowan ordered Ben Lei to dig a hole in Phoenix Mountain. Once Juechen
If the development fails, when Cao Kun throws this hidden weapon into the city, he can at least gather innocent people to a safe place.
It happened that when everyone was extremely agitated, Chu Mobei came to join in the fun.
"Prince, the Shu army has marched towards the wilderness!" Ben Lei immediately spread the news to the ears of Ye Junqing and Yao Mowan as soon as he got the news.
"Damn God of Plague, why isn't he dead yet?" Yao Mowan became angry when he heard this. The troops sent at this time were obviously not here to help.
"Will he and Cao Kun attack from both sides?" Ye Junqing frowned. If so, he would have no way to save himself.
"He's not that stupid. Ye Hongyi didn't give him any benefits. Even if Ye Hongyi gave him benefits, he might not accept them. And Mo Wan still has two volumes of his silk books in his hand." Yao Mowan said this.
People have studied it to their core, but they still can't see Chu Mobei.
"There's no guarantee he won't regret it." Ye Junqing was more nervous than Yao Mowan. After all, he was the one carrying the flag now. Once the army was defeated, it didn't matter if he died, but he couldn't implicate Yao Mowan, and he couldn't implicate Ben.
The people living and working in peace and contentment in the wilderness!
"I'm not worried about him going back on his word, he can't afford to lose this person, but since he chose to come and stir things up when we were at war with Ye Hongyi, he must have something up his sleeve. As for what it is, we can only know it once we meet him.
"Yao Mowan's face turned gloomy. She really didn't like Chu Mobei at all. He was sinister and ruthless, and was no match for his brother. When she thought of Chu Moxin, the corners of Yao Mowan's lips curled up slightly.
He was smiling, but he didn't know if the clothes he made would fit him.
"Master wants to see Chu Mobei?" At that time, Ben Lei was still frightened by what happened in Mingyue Gorge. This time, he naturally did not agree with Yao Mowan taking the risk again.
"Bah! Go see him. Haven't I suffered enough? If something happens to him, he will come to me." Yao Mowan told herself in her heart that unless Chu Mobei is written in black and white, his words will not be his.
He couldn't even believe a single punctuation mark. Seeing Yao Mowan so sure, Ye Junqing felt a little relieved.
So even though Chu Mobei's army was pressing down on the border, there was no reaction from Yao Mowan's side, not even a single negotiator was seen.
In the military tent, Chu Mobei was caressing a pet dog called Husky that was brought as tribute from Nanqiang. He named it 'Xiao Ha'. In fact, it was not intentional, but Chu Mobei knew this kind of dog. After calling the breed Husky, I randomly gave it the name 'Little Husky'.
"Brother Imperial, since you don't like furry things, why do you still keep dogs?" On one side, Chu Moxin looked at Chu Mobei's extremely forbearing expression and couldn't help but ask.
