Mo Junyang sat on the bedside expressionlessly in silence and didn’t have any reaction.
Shen Luo waited for a long while and Mo Junyang still didn’t speak. He guessed that Mo Junyang was badly upset and asked cautiously, “Junyang, are…are you all right?”
He was too scared to make a sentence.
Mo Junyang finally raised his head and his eyes were calm. He said coldly, “Save her.”
“I said the Lethal Seven…” There was no antidote.
Under the man’s horrible eyes, Shen Luo didn’t dare to speak out the last desperate words. After thinking for a while, he continued hesitantly, “My master once studied the Lethal Seven and tried to produce the antidote…”
“Give it to me.” Mo Junyang stretched out his hand directly.
Shen Luo was unable to speak a word.
Mo Junyang’s abnormal reaction almost drove Shen Luo crazy. Who gave that calm Mo Junyang back to him!
Shen Luo took a deep breath
“No. Your people said that before. I just guess…” Shi Baojin opened her mouth and tried to argue.Mo Junyang gave her choices. “Tell me, or have a living death.”Or rather there was no choice for her.Shi Baojin looked at Mo Junyang in fear and explained, jabbering, “It’s not me. I have never planned to harm Shi Qingxue. You must…”She attempted to struggle, but Mo Junyang lost his last patience and said to the man next to him, “Find several beggars to take off her clothes.”After giving the order, Mo Junyang showed a rare smile and looked at Shi Baojin gently. “This is the game we didn’t finish last time. You must be expecting it, right?”His smile was like the summons of the demon in hell.Shi Baojin was frightened and didn’t come back to her senses until several dirty and ugly beggars were brought into the prison. She screamed and waved her arms crazily, shouting, “No. Go away. Get out.”
Mo Junyang walked out of the prison and happened to meet Duke Shi and his wife who came to denounce him.Nobody knew what the messenger told the Shi Family. Dong Hui was anxious like a crazy woman, and Duke Shi who was always calm couldn’t conceal the fret and anxiety on his face.Dong Hui stood in front of Mo Junyang and questioned coldly, “Your Excellency, you detained three ladies of our family. Do you think we are weak and can be bullied easily? You’d better release my daughters right now. Otherwise, I will take them back at the risk of my life.”Mo Junyang didn’t take the couple seriously, but because they were Shi Qingxue’s parents, he still explained simply, “Qingxue was poisoned and Shen Luo is treating her in my mansion.”“What?” Dong Hui opened her eyes wide in fear and became more nervous. “Why did it happen? Who poisoned her? Can Doctor Shen cure her?”A series of questions came from her mouth, like the fir
Qin Yanyan finally came back to reality from the astonishment and happened to meet Mo Junyang’s dark and deep eyes like a pool in hell. She quivered and felt a chill down her spine.Then she restrained her fear soon and raised her head, looking dignified and natural. “Your Excellency, I don’t know what you are talking about.”“I will repeat it. I need the antidote.” Mo Junyang stepped forward once more and his momentum was like a sharp edge and would penetrate Qin Yanyan.Qin Yanyan couldn’t even sit steadily and turned to Mo Junhao subconsciously. He came up immediately and stood between the two. His eyes were cold, and there were shame and annoyance which couldn’t be concealed. With a cold smile, he stared at Mo Junyang. “Junyang, I don’t know what wrong my woman did to make you threaten her in public.”Mo Junyang leered at Mo Junhao, still expressionlessly. He didn’t argue with Mo Junhao but looked at Qin Yanyan again, saying fi
On the first day, Shen Luo checked all the medical books and records in King Rui’s mansion and finally found the notes about the Lethal Seven left by his master.But he just described the details of the victim’s symptoms and simply mentioned the development of the antidote. There was no formula for the antidote left.On the second day, Shen Luo produced the Lethal Seven according to his master’s notes, but he still didn’t know anything about the formula for the antidote.Mo Junyang was nowhere to be found.On the third day, there were rumors everywhere that Prime Minister Qin had beaten dozens of servants to death because of the theft in his mansion. The public condemned him on his cruelty and utter disregard for human life.In the afternoon, Qin Shirong went to the fourth prince’s mansion under cover and he looked sullen, as if his mother were dead.Mo Junhao had heard about the rumors and didn’t believe
In the study of the imperial palace.The emperor Mo Xiangbin sat in the host’s seat and looked cold and solemn. Mo Junhao stood across from him and lowered his head, obediently waiting to be scolded.They were silent for nearly fifteen minutes.Mo Xiangbin asked out of the blue, “Junhao, are you going to admit your guilt?”Mo Junhao played dumb. “Father, I don’t know what wrong I did to make you angry. Please forgive me because I am always obedient to you.”He didn’t admit his guilt and pretended soft. Even if Mo Xiangbin was mad, he would be moved more or less by his son’s nice attitude.However, this time Mo Xiangbin didn’t get soft-hearted and let him go as usual. He sneered. “Somebody told me that you have a troop in secret and want to rebel. Is that true?”Mo Junhao’s heart skipped a beat and he didn’t look calm as before. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, defending himself. “I have n
Mo Xiangbin asked instantly, “What happened? Yiyi, tell us in detail.”“Just now, the servants from the fourth prince’s mansion came to tell me that not long ago, several masked assassins broke into the mansion suddenly and killed more than ten guards, and then Yanyan was knocked out and taken away.”Liu Yiyi raised her head, with uncontrollable worry and panic on her delicate face.Mo Junhao exploded at once. “Yanyan is always obedient and never makes trouble. Why would somebody harm her?”He started to guess and seemed to think of something, and his handsome face twisted. But because Mo Xiangbin was present, he had to restrain his anger and then said coldly, “In the capital city and under the emperor’s eyes, somebody dared to break into the mansion you gave to me in broad daylight and take away my wife. They just provoke and threaten me and even despise God’s power. You can’t be tolerant to such evildoers.”Liu Yiyi
Mo Junyang didn’t care how shocked Qin Yanyan was and asked Liang’er, “What’s the matter?”“I have searched everywhere in the fourth prince’s mansion and didn’t find the antidote to the Lethal Seven, and Qin Yanyan admitted that she didn’t have the antidote,” Liang’er answered solemnly.Hearing that, Qin Yanyan didn’t have time to bother about Liang’er’s betrayal and nodded repeatedly, afraid that Mo Junyang wouldn’t believe them. “What she said is true. I really don’t have the antidote. There is no antidote to the Lethal Seven. Even if you kill me, it wouldn’t be helpful!”Till now, Qin Yanyan was still naïve and thought that he wouldn’t torture her anymore if he found the truth.Mo Junyang indeed stopped and didn’t hurt her anymore. And he repeated with a smile, “It really wouldn’t be helpful?”Qin Yanyan nodded crazily. “Right. Really…”So just let her go now!“In that case, you don’t need
Mo Junyang stayed silent for two seconds. Seeing that Shen Luo was still unmoved, he urged in a cold voice, “Hurry up.”Shen Luo showed a sad face. “I am scared.”Mo Junyang grabbed the antidote and put it in Qin Yanyan’s mouth.They both gazed at Qin Yanyan on the cross, with the utmost concentration.Fifteen minutes, thirty minutes, two hours…Shen Luo couldn’t insist and reached out his trembling finger to Qin Yanyan’s nose.Suddenly she quivered and came back to life. She opened her eyes and stared ahead blankly.“It worked?” Shen Luo opened his eyes wide pleasantly and looked at Mo Junyang in astonishment.Mo Junyang’s frozen face melted and he said in a trembling voice, “Check her pulse.”“Oh! Oh!” Shen Luo answered in a daze and put his right hand on Qin Yanyan’s pulse.After a short time, the joy on Shen Luo’s face disappeared and turned into fear
