Chapter 768: A Movie King, a Show of Power
In the dim forest, the mountain wind rustled the bamboo leaves. Dozens of dark shadows hid above the bamboo forest, using the dense branches and leaves to perfectly conceal their figures.
Those were the people Baili Moyan had transferred early in the morning to prepare to seize those firearms.
At this time, they hid in the darkness, silently, waiting for Baili Moyan's order.
Guan He stood aside, feeling somewhat untrustworthy towards Shu Yuanqi. After all, he was the biological brother of Shu Yuanqing and Princess Li! Could anyone really disregard their own brothers for the sake of wealth and glory?
Thinking of this, he felt that he was worrying too much. Not to mention for fame and fortune, there are countless people who betray their relatives for a few cents, let alone someone who does it for wealth and glory?
Wealth and honor are dazzling and can confuse people's minds. How can a young master who is used to a life of luxury accept that he will be indistinguishable from the rest of the world and become a commoner who can be bullied by everyone?
Baili Moyan cast an inquiring look at him, as if asking him what he thought of Shu Yuanqi?
He thought about it and nodded slightly in response. Perhaps, Shu Yuanqi was one of the thousands of people who only cared about their own interests, which was why he betrayed them so many times!
Seeing this, Baili Moyan smiled slightly, "Second Young Master, don't blame me for being overly suspicious. After all, you and Old Seven's wife are siblings. It's normal for me to be a little suspicious, right?"
After hearing this, Shu Yuanqi thought he didn't believe him and was about to explain, but Baili Moyan interrupted him, "Don't worry, don't worry. I now believe that you really want to surrender."
Seeing this, Shu Yuanqi's face was filled with ecstasy. "Then, Your Majesty, I have helped you so much this time. Doesn't this count as a merit? After returning to the capital, can I openly tell others that I am your retainer?"
Baili Moyan heard this, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. He nodded lightly, "Of course!"
Shu Yuanqi's face was filled with excitement, and his smile was tinged with smugness and pride. "Great! This time back in Beijing, I can finally hold my head up high in front of those bastards!"
It turns out it’s all for face!
The smile on Baili Moyan's face faded slightly. He looked down on Shu Yuanqi's "villainous" look, but since he had accepted it, he might as well "make the best use of it".
"You just said that Shu Yuanbao was killed by Shu He?"
Baili Moyan was a little puzzled. Wasn't Shu Yuanqing the murderer? How did it become Shu He? If it was really Shu He who killed him, shouldn't Shu Yuanqing be the one taking the blame? Why did it become him again?
What exactly happened in that bedroom at that time?
"Your Highness, the real murderer was Shu He!" Shu Yuanqi spoke with a serious expression, his cold eyes flickering with indignation in the moonlight. "To protect Shu He, my eldest brother told Shu Yue that he was the murderer. But then, to get rid of Shu Yuanqing, Shu He announced to the public that I was the murderer!"
"I originally thought that taking on this charge would be a way of atonement for all the beatings and scolding I had inflicted on her, but who would have thought that they were so close to each other that they didn't care about my life or death at all!"
"That Shu Yuanqing, in order to please Shu He, was even willing to follow the Liu family back to Anzhou and become an ordinary citizen in obscurity!"
"I just can't understand. What's going on in their heads? Being an ordinary citizen? Aren't they just soft persimmons that can be taken advantage of? Is being bullied a good thing? Is that..."
"That's enough!" Baili Moyan interrupted his chatter, "Just answer whatever the king asks you. No need to waste time talking nonsense!"
Shu Yuanqi said "oh" and closed his mouth silently, then glanced at him nervously.
The look and expression were both cautious and somewhat nervous and inquiring, as if she was afraid that Prince Nanyu would dislike her for talking too much.
I have to say, if Shu Yuanqi were put into another world, he would definitely become a movie star! He simply performed the temperament of a timid villain to the extreme.
Seeing him like this, Guan He couldn't help but shake his head. This Shu family, apart from Shu He, is really a weird family! I really don't know what kind of people can raise such different children...
"How many..." After this, the rescued Zhuang Ye also woke up.
There was a hint of anger between his brows. These people were just saving people, why did they stab him?
Pain in the back of my neck.
When Baili Moyan saw him wake up, he immediately walked over.
"Mr. Zhuang, long time no see!" Baili Moyan had seen Zhuang Ye at Lao Ba's house before, but at that time he had been standing quietly behind Lao Ba, so he didn't pay much attention to him and thought he was just an ordinary guest.
But I didn't expect that this guy was hiding so deeply!
The firearms he made could be said to be the most powerful weapons in the world! Moreover, they did not require any profound internal strength at all; even the most ordinary soldiers could easily master them.
If this is applied to the army, then not only will he become the emperor of Apocalypse, but even attacking the other four countries and unifying the world would be a piece of cake!
By then, he will make the saying "All under heaven belongs to the king" come true!
Zhuang Ye looked at him, not surprised by his arrival. "I didn't expect His Highness Prince Nanyu would still remember me. I am truly honored."
"Sir, you look not surprised at all. Did you know I would come?" Baili Moyan looked at him with a faint smile. He was becoming more and more determined to win over Zhuang Ye!
"That doesn't seem too hard to guess." Zhuang Ye's face was filled with confidence. He gestured to the ropes around him and said, "Your Highness, why don't you untie my ropes first before we talk?"
He has no hospitality at all. With such an attitude, why should I ask him to help him?
Baili Moyan was startled, and quickly smiled embarrassedly: "Look at what these people did, they have no brains at all, they saved the gentleman, but they didn't even untie the ropes, they are simply a bunch of idiots!"
"Quick, Guan He, release Mr. Zhuang immediately! Mr. Zhuang is our honored guest, how can you treat him like this?"
Zhuang Ye smiled, but there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.
This Ninth Prince is so hypocritical. He always does things and says things that he thinks are clever. He doesn't think that everyone will be fooled by him, right?
Guan He stepped forward, swung his long sword, and a ray of sword energy instantly slashed towards Zhuang Ye, causing the contempt in his eyes to instantly turn into fear.
"Snapped!"
"Squeak!"
There was the sound of the rope being cut by the knife, and at the same time, there was the sound of Zhuang Ye's clothes being torn.
Fortunately, he was not hurt at all. It was as if someone deliberately controlled the force, not to hurt him, but just to give him a warning.
