Chapter 204: It's Yunqi
or fake news to be spread among the city's populace, claiming that he and An Xue Tang were returning to the capital.Eleven also arranged a carriage, putting on quite a show to make the people believe...Northern Frontier City
At this moment, in Mo Yunjing's camp, Yun Mian stood solemnly before him. Mo Yunjing did not look as weak and on the verge of death as the rumors outside had claimed.
Though he wasn't exactly completely healthy, as long as he wasn't in the throes of his venom, his aura was undeniably majestic and intimidating.
"Your Highness, the camp is just as you predicted. News of your illness has spread, and now there is widespread panic among the soldiers."
Mòyúnjǐng's gaze was cold. "Find out where the news came from"
He did get poisoned last night, but after Dr. Liu's acupuncture this morning, he woke up.
However, thinking that a traitor might have appeared in the Yun family army, he decided to use a strategy to find out who had betrayed them and caused such heavy losses to the Yun family army!
Yún Yī didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth, "It's Yún Qī."
Mo Yunjing's hand, which was about to take the teacup, paused slightly, his thin lips pursed, "Bring him up."
"Yes."
Yún had someone bind Yún Qī early on, and now directly ordered him dragged into the camp.
When Yun Qi was brought in, bound and gagged, his expression was one of utter bewilderment, as if he truly didn't understand why he had been captured.
After being forced to kneel, he kept his head bowed. "Your subordinate greets the Prince,"
Mo Yunjing raised her eyes to look at him, her expression unreadable. “Why”
Yun Qi, even now, still wants to deny and feign ignorance, "Your Highness, this subordinate doesn't understand what you mean"
Mo Yunjing's deep-set eyes stared at him, holding a complex emotion that was hard to decipher.
Yun Yi was now fighting back the urge to kill him. He took a step, then another, walking towards Yun Qi and held his broken sleeve in front of him, gritting his teeth as he spoke:
"Yun Qi, you made me into this, caused over a hundred of my brothers to die with regrets. Is this what you wanted What has the Yun Family Army ever done wrong to you all these years"
Yun Qi's eyes dodged for a moment, but no matter what, he couldn't admit it now.
"Big brother, I..."
"Don't call me big brother!" Yun Yi's eyes were bloodshot at this moment, his anger reaching its peak, "You don't deserve it!"
Mo Yunjing's eyes were as deep and cold as an abyss. He understood Yun Yi's feelings; he had poured too much of his heart into the Cloud Army. Those fallen soldiers were all personally trained by Yun Yi, some even raised by him with his own hands. They were like his children.
How can Yun Yi possibly stay calm now!
"You think you still have a chance to defend yourself, Yun Qi, at this point" Cloud One forced himself to remain calm, his icy gaze fixed on Cloud Seven. "Tell me, why did you do this"
Yunqi pursed her lips, "I... I don't know what you're talking about, Big Brother."
Mo Yunjing's eyes were cold. He glanced at Yun Qi and said directly, "Drag him out and chop him!"
Once a person is utterly disappointed, they won't want to utter a word. Whether or not he wants to explain it, it doesn't matter to Mo Yunjing!
He always thought the Cloud Army was his pride, they were his loyal soldiers who he had trained himself, no matter who would betray him, at least the Cloud Army wouldn't, but the cruel reality gave him a bloody lesson, he was wrong, and terribly so!
Yun Yi perhaps was also tired, his heart filled with disappointment. Yun Qi was someone he had brought up himself, but he never expected him to do such a thing.
“Bring Yun Qi out here and dismember him!”
Five horses dismember!
That was the most brutal punishment in the army. Yun Qi immediately became agitated, and before they could drag him out, he started shouting, "Why What have I done"
Yún Yī glared at him, "Well asked, Yún Qī, you ask a good question."
Yun with a gesture stopped his men from dragging Yun Qi away. He slowly squatted down in front of Yun Qi, his unharmed hand firmly gripping his chin:
"Yunqi, I give you one last chance. Who made you willingly betray the Prince Tell me!"
Yūn Qī shook her head, trying to shake Yún Yī's hand off, but she couldn't. Instead, he squeezed her hand even tighter.
"I have not betrayed the prince, Yun Yi, do not try to slander me, I did not do it!"
"Is that so" Yun Yi sneered, then had someone brought in.
The moment Yun Qi saw this person, he collapsed instantly. His face turned pale, and in his ears, it seemed like these two words were being repeated endlessly: "It's over!"
As soon as this person entered the room, they knelt down. They confessed everything without Yun even needing to ask a question.
Originally, he was a camp cook, responsible for the food supply in the camp. Specifically, his part was taking care of the Cloud Army's meals.
The reason so many elite Cloud Army soldiers were lost in that battle was because the food provided to them was problematic.
He put a drug in the food that would make someone feel weak all over, and that drug was given to him by Yunqi!
Yun Qi promised him that as long as he did this, he would be in charge of the entire army camp's kitchen from then on.
Not only that, but Yunqi also gave him several silver notes at the time.
Yunqi's temptation was indeed great, and Yunqi told him that those pills were for enhancing internal energy in a short period of time. The reason he used them secretly was because they were prohibited drugs. Yunqi was afraid that Yunyi would find out and be punished by Yunyi, so he could only use them secretly.
Yun Qi assured them that this medicine wouldn't cause any problems. It only enhanced their internal energy, making them braver and more skilled on the battlefield.
So the head of the military thought about it and agreed to Yun Qi's suggestion, adding this thing when preparing food.
Only after he secretly tasted it did he discover that Yun Qi had lied to him. After eating it, he didn't react at first, but after two hours he started feeling drowsy and could fall asleep even while walking.he soldiers to open the city gates.Mo Yunze didn't say a word, and led a large force out of the city.After the city gate was closed again, one of the subordinates leaned in and whispered to Chen Pinqi...
