Chapter 358: Bring Her Back

Dong Ge'er's determination, An Xue Tang knew she couldn't change it with words. After all, everyone has their own choices.
Since he had the welfare of the people at heart, how could she possibly stop him
Finally, An Xuetang nodded. "Then you must be careful everywhere, no matter what happens, be sure to protect yourself and your family."
"Having said that, she looked at Mo Junyi, "Ziling, your mother won't stop you from doing anything. But today's emperor should be a lesson for you. Remember the stories of King Zhou of Shang and Emperor Wu of Han that I told you. No matter what you do, always think carefully before acting."
Mo Junyi nodded seriously, "Mother, I understand."
Not long ago, An Xuetang had already told him two stories. One was about a depraved and incompetent emperor, Shang Zhou.
This King Zhou was notorious for being a tyrant. During his reign, he enforced harsh punishments and favored the wicked while alienating loyal ministers. He constantly acted as if he were the only one who mattered in the world.
In King Zhou's heart, he felt that no one under heaven could compare to him. What was even more ridiculous was that he compared himself to the sun in the sky, feeling that his power was boundless.
Of course, besides the aforementioned drawbacks, King Zhou of Shang was also notorious for his love of wealth and sex. During his reign, the people suffered greatly and their grievances were widespread.
It can be said that this Emperor Zhou, like his grandfather, was a failed emperor and a typical negative example.
But his mother also told him about a relatively successful emperor, Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che!
His mother said that Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, was an emperor who could listen to honest advice and admit his mistakes when he made them.
He ascended the throne at sixteen. During his reign, he promoted virtuous ministers and distanced himself from corrupt officials, unlike King Shang Zhou who did the opposite.
Moreover, during Emperor Wu's reign, he established a relatively reasonable imperial system. Both politically and culturally, he largely achieved unification. However, although Emperor Wu did very well in his early years, as he aged, a trace of greed arose in his heart. After all, at that time, he held immense power and influence. For some unknown reason, he became obsessed with immortality and began to distrust those around him
Not only that, but he also used witchcraft to cause him and his son to kill each other. The crown prince, Liu Ju, even committed suicide because of him.
Fortunately, after a series of misfortunes occurred, Liu Che became deeply weary. Whenever he recalled the things he had done during that period, he quickly realized how foolish his actions had been.
After he climbed Mount Tai and worshiped at the Temple of the Bright Hall, he also personally wrote a letter of repentance, known as "The Imperial Edict for Atoning for Crimes Committed on the Wheel Platform." After completing it, he publicly announced this letter of repentance to the world, thereby showing that his previous actions were wrong.
His mother said that the elderly Emperor Liu Che resembled his grandfather somewhat, but luckily, Liu Che had pulled himself back from the brink and was brave enough to admit his mistakes.
It is remarkable that Emperor Liu Che, high above all others, would stoop to admit his wrongdoing. This is perhaps a testament to the principle of "the emperor commits crimes like commoners." Such humility earns him our respect, and it's clear that this kind of ruler can win the hearts of the people.
He certainly knew the intention behind him telling those two stories, since he had already decided to take this path. As for the art of being an emperor, he ought to understand it.
Right now, Mo Junyi personally helped Dong'er up. The two of them only exchanged a glance, and they didn't need to say anything special. They seemed to understand each other's thoughts.
At this time, Yun Yi also had charcoal and ingredients prepared, and invited An Xue Tang to barbecue together.
At the same time, Bai Feng's situation was not good.
An Xuetang woke up and coughed up a mouthful of blood. He wasn't much better off himself; he was using Gu techniques to control the Gu worms inside her body.
After she broke his curse, he was immediately injured, harming his five internal organs and six bowels.
Luckily, Bai Han discovered it in time and used his skills to heal him, allowing him to recover.
After two hours of channeling energy to heal, Bai Feng's complexion finally returned to normal. Bai Han withdrew her hand and let him lie down again.
He narrowed his eyes, "What's going on"
Bai Feng didn't know what he was thinking, he smiled and said, "This palace really didn't expect that the woman's abilities would be so great. She actually broke this palace's curse."
"...“ Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Bai Han was also shocked for a moment, then smiled, "I told you long ago, she doesn't look like an ordinary woman. If you want to play with her, sooner or later you will be played by her."
"Ha."
Bai Feng sneered, "It's just luck. A mere woman, what could she possibly use to escape the grasp of this palace"
Bai Han didn't agree with his attitude at all. She narrowed her eyes and said:
But you mustn't forget, she may be a woman, but she is the extraordinary woman mentioned by the Master of Bright Lamps. Whoever wins her, wins the world. If she wasn't capable, how could the Master of Bright Lamps have spoken so highly of her
After Bai Han finished speaking, she shook her head and smiled. “The woman of the War God, King of Beijang, is not an ordinary person. Now, what do you plan to do The parasites in her body are temporarily inactive, but does that mean I need to go capture her now Since King Beijang isn't at camp, it shouldn't be difficult to capture her.”
Bai Feng thought for a moment, "Although Mo Yunjing is gone, she still has Feng Ming by her side. Yun Yi and the others are also not easy to deal with. Without me, you have no chance of winning."
Bai Han curled her lips into a smile, "You think I, the Master Alchemist of Bai Guang Palace, wouldn't be able to solve Feng Ming"
"You can give it a try."
Bai Han turned around, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring her back. But while I'm gone, you have to be careful. If anything else happens, even a god descending from heaven won't be able to save you."
Bai Feng curled his lips, saying nothing, watching his leaving figure.
After Bai Han left, Bai Feng raised his hand to look at the swollen spot on his arm. The mother Gu of the Lover's Curse was there, but at this time, the Lover's Curse in his body was also seriously injured and could only be dormant.
Now thinking back to the scene of that woman ruthlessly pinching herself, Bai Feng couldn't help but chuckle, "Woman, you really are different from ordinary women."
No sooner had he finished speaking than someone knocked on the door again. He scowled and motioned for them to enter.
"Your Majesty, my subordinate has received a letter. The poison within the Crown Prince's body has already penetrated his five viscera and six bowels. The medicine in their hands is ineffective."
Bai Feng's face darkened. "Find out who drugged him"
"She was the former Crown Princess."
"Who gave her the medicine"
"He is the Fourth Prince."
Mo Yunze!
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes, "Pass down the order, let everyone make way for Mo Yunjing and allow him to return to the capital at the fastest speed."
The man in black clearly didn't understand, "Master, why clear the way for the King of Beijang"
He must have the antidote in his possession. Have him enter the capital as soon as possible, and then Mo Yunchen will not die.
The man in black pursed his lips; he genuinely didn't understand. The old master's order was to kill the brothers, Mo Yunchen and Mo Yunjing, yet why would their master save Mo Yunchen
At this point, as long as they can hold back Mo Yunjing on the road, then Mo Yunchen in the capital city will not need them to take action; he will die from the poison himself.
Baifeng saw that he didn't move, his sharp eyes narrowed slightly, "What Didn't you hear what this palace said"rn frontier. How can the soldiers possibly stop them It's simply too difficult.An Xue Tang also slowly walked in. As soon as she entered, she heard Mo Jun Yi angrily say, “Fifth Uncle, how could you d...
