Chapter 197 - Be Criticized by the Public (1/2)
Yelü Anchen didn’t believe that.
He snorted. “Anyway, the colorful phenix was killed by the people of the Mo Country, and they can’t escape. What can they do even if he asks Mo Junyang?”
No matter how capable Mo Junyang was, could he call black white?
As for this point, the prince of the Liang Country still knew nothing about a politician’s level.
Lord Ying glanced at Yelü Anchen, not in the mood to explain more to him. He just pondered over it.
Theoretically, he didn’t think that the end would change dramatically with Mo Junyang involved.
But because of Mo Junyang, Lord Ying was not certain about his guess.
“When you saw Mo Junyang, what did he look like?” Lord Ying asked Wu Yalei cautiously and wanted to get more information so that he could make an accurate judgment.
But his question just made Wu Yalei want to cry.
Wu Yalei had to smile bitterly. “Lord Ying, you know what kind of person Mo Junyang is. He…”
No emotion could be seen from his frozen face.
Lord Ying also realized that his question was stupid, so he waved his hand and changed the subject. “Well, I will investigate this matter carefully. Don’t meddle.”
Wu Yalei had never planned to meddle, so he expressed his thanks secretly and nodded in agreement. “My Lord, thank you for handling it.”
“Hmm. Since you gave the emperor of the Mo Country three days to think it over, you just stay in the embassy these days and be well-behaved. Don’t cause complications.” After saying that in a hurry, Lord Ying directly turned around and left.
Yelü Anchen suddenly realized that Lord Ying didn’t promise him to deal with Mo Junyang.
“Stop!” He shouted at the outside in a rage, but Lord Ying had disappeared earlier.
Yelü Anchen smashed teacups again and wanted to smash the table, but Wu Yalei stopped him.
Wu Yalei tried hard to advise him, “Your Highness, don’t be mad. Lord Ying is really an awesome person. You will suffer losses if you act rashly before knowing well about him.”
Although Yelü Anchen stopped, he didn’t believe Wu Yalei’s words. “Why is he awesome? Isn’t he just a dog raised in the Mo Country by my brother?”
He said something to humiliate others without thinking.
Wu Yalei was so nervous that he hurriedly covered Yelü Anchen’s mouth regardless of anything and begged. “Master, you can’t say that. I tell you something, and then you will understand.”
Yelü Anchen paused for a while and then leered at Wu Yalei to ask silently, “What?”
Wu Yalei looked around subconsciously, as if he had to confirm that Lord Ying had gone away and nobody would eavesdrop.
“Say it now!” Yelü Anchen was interested in Wu Yalei’s words indeed, but he got impatient because of the latter’s neurotic attitude.
“Your Highness, think about it. We had an agreement of three days with the emperor of the Mo Country less than two hours ago.” Wu Yalei pointed it out meaningfully.
Yelü Anchen thought about Wu Yalei’s words but couldn’t find anything unusual, so he roared impatiently, “Get to the point. Don’t beat around the bush.”
Wu Yalei had no choice but to say straightforwardly, “Only three were in the imperial study then, we and the emperor of the Mo Country. Even if we talked about this outside, there must be nobody around…
“But under the situation, Lord Ying exactly knew the agreement between us and the emperor of the Mo Country. Don’t you understand what it meant?”
“Do you mean?” Yelü Anchen finally realized and the impatience on his face was replaced with pondering.
Wu Yalei nodded seriously. “Right, this Lord Ying is unpredictable. He knew it in such a short time, and he must have his way. So before we find out his identity, we can’t act blindly. It would be a disaster if we ruined His Majesty’s plans.”
No wonder Wu Yalei told him repeatedly. He was afraid that something bad would happen. While the main reason was that it was difficult to talk into Yelü Anchen, and the best way was to mention Yelü Beichen.
“Huh!” Yelü Anchen snorted unwillingly but didn’t say more, agreeing to Wu Yalei’s arrangement silently.
He just asked, “What would we do next?”
Wu Yalei shook his head. “We don’t need to do anything. Since His Majesty told us to listen to Lord Ying for this matter, at least he is on the same side with us for the colorful phenix’s issue. As for other things, we need to think it over.”
Other things naturally meant that Yelü Anchen wanted Lord Ying to help him deal with Mo Junyang.
Yelü Anchen frowned in a rage, but soon he controlled himself and didn’t lose temper. He just expressed crossly, “Fine, I know what to do. You don’t need to gab. Go out. I am going to bed.”
Gee, he still persisted in his old ways.
Wu Yalei complained in his heart but respectfully said goodbye and retreated.
Mo Junyang was summoned by Mo Xiangbin urgently and didn’t delay. He entered the imperial palace directly. Even though he was stopped by Yelü Anchen halfway, he didn’t waste a lot of time. Only Quan was scared with cold sweat all over.
“The prince of the Liang Country is difficult to deal with!” Quan couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
Mo Junyang glanced at Quan and asked, “Why did he enter the imperial palace today?”
Probably because of Mo Xiangbin’s evident attitude, this trusted follower of the emperor didn’t hide it from Mo Junyang. He simply repeated Yelü Anchen’s words.
Then he looked around cautiously and lowered his voice. “I guess that the prince has known what happened to the colorful phenix and came to threaten His Majesty with this accusation.”
Mo Junyang nodded to show that he understood but didn’t express his opinion. He just entered the imperial study.
Mo Xiangbin was walking back and forth in front of the desk and looked anxious, as if he would die a heroic death soon.
