Chapter 496 His Face, Deadly Stunning

and saw that he had only fainted. He then took out his silver needles and pricked several acupuncture points on the emperor's body.After a while, the emperor slowly opened his eyes, but the fear was...After reigning for so many years, the emperor was certainly not a fool. At this time, he knew very well that attacking An Xuetang would cause a huge public outcry!

After all, the common people now know that conquering the Dayue Kingdom was the credit of that woman and Mo Junyi. He wouldn't be foolish enough to attack that woman at this time.

At this moment, Mo Rongyan was still very unwilling. After hesitating for a moment, she pursed her lips and then raised her eyes to look at the emperor, unable to help but say:

"Father, you... You are the esteemed Emperor of Tianba! What harm is there in capturing just a simple village woman That woman attempted to poison Princess Tianba! Her crimes are heinous! It's only right and proper to capture her!"

At the mere thought of An Xuetang, she felt anger surge through her. Her fists clenched tightly as she gritted her teeth and growled:

If those commoners cause trouble, you could simply issue an edict to make their lives impossible. Then no one would dare speak ill of you again. If they still do, you could just ensure they have nowhere to bury them when they die!

She truly didn't understand. Her father king's recent actions were becoming increasingly unlike him. In the past, if he wanted to have someone executed, it was simply a matter of saying so.

To be afraid of mere gossip from the common people now

Hearing this, the Emperor coldly glanced at her, "Woman's heart, what do you understand"

The emperor stood up and coldly said a few words, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!"

After finishing his words, the Emperor flicked his sleeves and turned away directly.

When the Emperor said the words "Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it," everyone present was deeply moved.

Especially the eunuchs around him and the imperial physicians standing silently by.

In their lifetime, they had actually heard these eight words from the emperor's mouth, who was known for his ruthlessness!

Doctor Chen stared thoughtfully at the Emperor's departing figure, his heart unable to settle for a long time. Could it be... their Emperor had finally come to understand

After the Emperor left, the imperial physician checked Mo Rong's pulse again. When he confirmed she was fine, they dared to leave.

Looking at her arm, now bandaged with hemostatic herbs, Mo Rong let out a frustrated cry. She glared at the Empress:

"Mother, I will definitely not let that woman off! I must kill her. Tonight's affair, this princess is irreconcilable with her!"

The Empress, with a heart full of sympathy, caressed her daughter's swollen face that had been struck by the Emperor. "Rest assured, Mother will find an opportunity to avenge you. However, next time, you must remember to think carefully before acting when it involves the matters of Xiliang Country. Don't be so reckless again and allow yourself to be caught."

Mo Rongyan snorted, "Mother, what's wrong with Father lately He never cared about others' opinions before, why is he suddenly so concerned about those commoners' views now If those lowly people disobey, just kill them, there's no need to care about their words!"

The Empress fell silent for a moment, “Your father has been acting strangely lately. Don't go and provoke him, just listen to whatever he says, don't try to provoke him anymore.”

Being able to sit on the throne of the Empress, Hu Jinfeng is not a fool. She can see things clearly, just like the Emperor's current attitude towards Mo Yunjing.

He used to wish he could kill Mo Yunjing at any opportunity, but recently he'd even stopped his men from doing so. They couldn't simply attack Mo Yunjing anymore, and she was baffled by the emperor’s strange behavior these days.

But the Emperor had never cared for blood ties or familial affection. He couldn't have done this because Mo Yunjing was his son; he must have some use for Mo Yunjing, and couldn't easily act against him.

Since the emperor had his own considerations, they naturally couldn't act rashly against Mo Yunjing.

The empress took the ointment from the maidservant's hand. She had the maidservant remove the nail protectors from her nails, then carefully applied the ointment to Mo Rong's face, softly saying to her:

"Yan'er, don't worry. Those women on either side will all enter the capital eventually. Your mother's status is right there. Dealing with a mere country girl is nothing for your mother. Just wait and watch the show; don't cause any more trouble."

Mo Rongyan gritted her teeth, "Mother, you must punish her severely. Every time my daughter thinks of that woman's lips, she wants to tear her apart."

The Empress narrowed her dangerous, icy eyes and sneered, "Don't be so impatient. Since she had the courage to enter the capital, this city is ours. Once she steps into the capital, there are some things she won't be able to control!"

As a queen, she wouldn't have any trouble teaching that country bumpkin a lesson.

In the days to come, she would make that woman understand that if one dared to run wild on their turf, they had better be prepared to pay the price!

On the other hand, An Xuetang in Jinchuan Temple was unaware of all that had transpired in the palace.

She fell asleep shortly after lying in bed last night, perhaps because she was too tired from the journey these past two days, so she fell asleep soon after lying down.

She didn't even know when Mo Yunjing had finished showering and gone to bed. After sleeping for several hours, she slowly opened her eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, Mo Yunjing's handsome face came into view. I have to admit, no matter what time it was, his face had a seriously impressive impact.

As for others, she was oblivious. All she knew was that in her presence, Mo Yunjing's face had the power to make her completely surrender.ately disarmed Zhou Yuan."Ah!!!"Zhou Yuan only felt a searing pain, the feeling of being trampled on was truly unbearable.But he had no way out. Yun Liu's face, sinister and grim, drew close to him, "...
