…

When Wei Runan saw King Hui, as soon as he saluted, he looked up and was startled by King Hui's pale face and dull eyes, as if he had been disturbed by something.

"Prince Hui, this is..."

"It's okay. Your Majesty was just frightened by the previous assassination."

After hearing what Mo Xuanchen said, Wei Runan couldn't help but glance at King Hui.

He remembered that when King Hui came to the southern border more than ten years ago, he was still a high-spirited young man. He admired General Mo and yearned to fight on the battlefield. He followed the Mohist army to the battlefield without any image of a prince, and rode horses on the battlefield to fight against others.

He was once a fierce general when fighting against enemies, but why has he become so timid now?

It was just an assassination. Even if the person died, it had already been so long, and he was still so scared.

The confidant who was following Wei Runan looked at King Hui's pale face and almost couldn't help showing contempt.

These royal people are really greedy for life and afraid of death!

After King Hui and Mo Xuanchen sat down, Wei Runan said: "It has been a while since the prince came to Shuokang. Wei should have come to see the prince a long time ago, but someone had an accident. King Zhennan said that the prince and Mr. Chen were frightened.

It’s not appropriate to meet guests, and it’s not appropriate for Wei to disturb the prince’s self-cultivation.”

At this time, King Hui was filled with despair that he was ugly. He sat on his chair and waved his hands dejectedly: "I know this, and I don't blame General Wei."

"Is the prince's injury feeling better?"

"It's nothing serious in the first place, it's the King of Zhennan who is making a fuss out of a molehill."

Wei Runan still wanted to say hello, so King Hui pointed directly at Mo Xuanchen beside him, "I was forced to go south this time by my brother. Otherwise, there would be no need to suffer these crimes. I don't understand the court."

Regarding the matter, the emperor didn't ask me to do anything else besides conveying the decree."

"Master Wei, you want to see General Wei, and others are here too. If you have any questions, you can tell yourself. If I have something to do, I will take the first step."

He had to go back and look in the mirror quickly.

Wei Runan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw that King Hui didn't have any scruples and just stood up and left. He looked as if he was just going through the motions and didn't even want to say more.

Mo Xuanchen looked helpless: "Your Majesty is so forthright and casual, don't blame General Wei."

The confidants around Wei Runan almost complained.

Straightforward and casual?

He thought it was just salted fish that had been put out and jars broken. He didn't know what Emperor Jing was thinking about letting such a careless prince come to the southern border to deal with King Zhennan.

Wei Runan was calm. He just raised his eyes and looked at Mo Xuanchen and said with a smile: "Earlier, when King Hui came to Shuokang, he had such a no-holds-barred attitude. If the late emperor had not passed away suddenly and King Hui had been summoned to Beijing for the funeral, Hui might have been killed.

The prince will stay in Shuokang City and inherit the mantle of our old prince."

"General Wei is joking."

Mo Xuanchen spoke lightly, "The old prince has his own children, the King of Zhennan, and even if it's not good enough, there is Prince Mo in the capital. How can we need Prince Hui to inherit the mantle?"

Wei Runan quickly asked with concern: "Is the Crown Prince still well in the capital?"

"It's good. Prince Mo used to be weak, and Your Majesty treated him with pity. After marrying his wife a few days ago, his body and bones became healthy."

Mo Xuanchen looked gentle, "When I left the capital, the second prince went south to Dingzhou to provide relief. His Majesty ordered Prince Mo to lead troops to accompany him. A few days ago, I received news that the disaster in Dingzhou had been alleviated, and Prince Mo had also made great contributions. No wonder he had done so before.

Even His Majesty praised Prince Mo, saying that he was indeed of the Mohist family and would definitely inherit the legacy of the old prince and protect Daye in the future."

Wei Runan's expression remained unchanged: "The prince is naturally brave."

Mo Xuanchen looked at Wei Runan and said, "Your Majesty intends to train Prince Mo, and will definitely entrust him with important responsibilities in the future."

"This time, His Majesty sent me and King Hui to Shuokang to summon the King of Zhennan to the capital. This is not only to cleanse the Mohist family of the bad reputation brought to the Palace of Zhennan by the fourth prince's false claims of colluding with others for smuggling and treason.

The King of Zhennan discussed Prince Mo’s return to the southern border.”

Wei Runan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your Majesty wants to send the crown prince back to the south?"

Mo Xuanchen said: "Your Majesty has this intention, but it is King Zhennan who is in charge of the southern territory now. Whether the prince returns or not depends on King Zhennan's wishes."

Wei Runan looked up at him with stern eyes.

Mo Xuanchen was not afraid at all: "Prince Mo is already in his late twenties and married, so he should be of an age to deal with matters."

"Back then, the old prince died in battle and the prince was still young. His Majesty made Prince Mo temporarily in charge of the palace out of consideration. However, after all, Prince Mo is not of the old prince's bloodline, and it is difficult for him to convince the people both in the southern border and the Mohist army."

"It would have been fine if Prince Mo had been sick and weak, but now he is healthy, brave and resourceful, just like his grandfather. Your Majesty intends to restore the orthodoxy in the south and return the Mohist bloodline to its rightful place, but I don't know whether General Wei and other generals can

I’m still willing to recognize Old Prince Mo’s lineage.”

The smile on Wei Runan's face faded a little, and when he looked up at the young Master Wei in front of him, his expression was condensed: "So what if you recognize him, so what if you don't recognize him."

"Recognize, we have the same purpose, so we can be co-conspirators."

"I don't recognize it..."

Mo Xuanchen leaned on the Grand Master's chair and smiled casually, "Then the rumors that General Wei supports the Crown Prince and guards the Mohist army for the old prince must be all false."

"Whether General Wei has surrendered to King Zhennan, or the Wei family has selfish motives and is unwilling to be subordinate to others and wants something else, Crown Prince Mo is of no use to the Southern Territory, so His Majesty wants to summon King Zhennan to the capital and send Crown Prince Mo back.

I must have completely lost hope."

"Wei is greedy for life and afraid of death. Since he knows that it is useless to stay in the south, he will not attack the stone with eggs. Tomorrow I will take King Hui and Lord Chen to return to the capital to plead guilty to His Majesty."

After hearing what he said, Wei Runan's slight contempt after coming in completely disappeared.

He looked at "Wei Lin" in front of him with slightly solemn eyes, as if he wanted to see whether his words were a test or a real intention to leave.

Mo Xuanchen let him look him over, his phoenix eyes showing no fear at all.

After a long while, Wei Runan finally spoke: "Master Wei, do you think the King of Zhennan will let you leave?"

Mo Xuanchen chuckled lightly: "Why didn't he? A few of us are still carrying the shell of imperial envoys. Unless King Zhennan wants to rebel and wants to tell the world that he is ambitious and plotting rebellion, otherwise I will just follow the trend and talk about the situation in the south.

It's complicated, we need him to guard Luyunguan, and he will happily see us off."

"As for the secret assassination on the way back to Beijing, people in this world are not fools. I am accompanied by thousands of guards. Which bandit without eyes dares to bump into me?"
