be very difficult, and more importantly, I don't think there's any need for you to enter the palace at all."Although it may sound arrogant, Ajing and I, along with the Crown Prince, we truly don't ne...The commander of the Imperial Forest Army thought to himself, "It's just as well that I had a run-in with Yun Si at the gates of the Northern Border Prince's mansion today."

After all, he had been provoked by that cloud-like person early in the morning and yet he didn't act impulsively. He kept this feeling of anger bottled up all the way here, unable to let it out.

Since the emperor had given him this opportunity, he naturally wanted to seize it well.

These people in front of the Prince's mansion, they are going against me because they want to protect this stinky kid right here.

If so, he wants to see just how much these people, Cloud Four and the rest, are truly capable of when he tortures Mo Junyi mercilessly.

Thinking this way, the leader of the Imperial Guards' eyes flashed with a cold light. He took slow steps towards Mo Junyi.

And Mo Junyi remained standing straight, as if he didn't see a single person in the hall.

When the commander of the Imperial Guard got close to him, he just said, "Young Master, please forgive me."

Seeing Mo Junyi dodging in front of the emperor, even daring to avoid him, the head of the Imperial Guard's eyes sank, a flash of murderous intent passing through his pupils.

And the emperor sitting above, seeing that Mo Junshi dared to dodge again, his anger grew even more intense. His hands clasped into fists on his lap, he glared at Mo Junshi with eyes wide with fury.

Under the gaze of everyone, Mo Junyi remained calm. At this time, he nonchalantly bowed to the emperor:

"Grandfather, perhaps you should first listen to what your grandson has to say. After hearing it, you can decide whether or not to take action. This way, you won't regret it later."

His words instantly enraged the emperor, "Presumptuous! Who do you think you are To dare speak so boldly in front of me!"

The emperor's eyes were as cold as the abyss, and in his fury, he didn't even consider giving Mo Junyi a chance to explain himself.

Besides, in his eyes, Mo Junyi was just a boy of over ten years old. What could he possibly understand

Since he's already in their hands, they should get rid of him as soon as possible to avoid future trouble.

So, there was never any consideration given to letting Mo Junyi have a chance to speak, nor was there any belief that he could come up with anything interesting.

Thinking this way, after roaring at Mo Junyi, he looked at the immobile commander of the Imperial Forest Army.

His trembling finger pointed at the man, and he roared, "What are you still doing Do you also have some disagreement with my order"

The Commander of the Imperial Guard hastily bowed, "I dare not."

Just then, Mo Junyi suddenly let out a strange laugh.

Everyone in the entire hall turned to look at him.

There was a hint of astonishment in their eyes.

Everyone was confused as to why he suddenly let out such a strange laugh.

>Especially his entire face at this moment still carried a kind of inexplicable confidence.

He seemed utterly confident that no one dared to lay a finger on him today within this grand hall.

This arrogance, this self-importance, left everyone speechless.

Even the emperor couldn't react for a moment, just staring blankly at Mo Junyi who was laughing.

Not until his laughter ceased did the Emperor recover, for as ruler of a nation, few dared to show such arrogance and pride in his presence.

Therefore, Mo Junyi's smile instantly made the emperor's heart burn even hotter.

He instinctively glanced around, but unfortunately there was nothing nearby that he could use as a weapon.

Perhaps in a fit of rage, the emperor's mind was consumed by only one thought: to teach Mo Junyi a lesson.

Seeing nothing else handy to throw, he, in front of everyone, took off his shoe and immediately flung it at Mo Junyi.

Mo Junyi was not a person who would just stand there and take a beating. Of course, he wouldn't be foolish enough to do so.

He effortlessly dodged the emperor's flying shoe.

Seeing him dodge again, the emperor was so angry his whole body trembled, "You... you little brat, just wait until I kill you."

The emperor gritted his teeth and uttered these vicious words, which clearly showed just how enraged he was at this moment.

After throwing the shoes out, he brushed himself up and was about to rush down.

Luckily, Zhi'er on the side acted in time and pulled him back.

Before the Emperor, her voice was soft as water, "Your Majesty, he is just an ignorant grandson. Your Majesty need not be so angry with him. Anger harms the body, Your Majesty, your dragon body is the most important."

In a normal situation, an emperor this angry would be beyond reasoning with.

When this emperor was young and impetuous, he would order the execution of officials and their entire clans at the drop of a hat.

Whoever dares to advise against it will bring misfortune upon their own family.

Therefore, every time the emperor was angry, someone would die.

Even if everyone knew the official might be innocent, no one dared to plead for him or explain the situation.

Over the years, perhaps because the emperor is getting older, his anger isn't as intense anymore.

So, over the past few years, the entire imperial court has appeared rather normal.

Everyone in the hall knew the emperor's previous temperament, so at this moment they all felt that Mo Junyi was definitely going to die today.

They had not seen the Emperor so enraged, looking to kill someone, in ages.

But no one expected that after being grabbed by Chi'er, the emperor's anger in his eyes would instantly vanish.

The Emperor's change in demeanor was seen by the commander of the Imperial Guard, causing him to tremble with unease. He suddenly looked at Zhi’er, his heart seemingly certain about something.

When he looked over, Chi-er's eyes narrowed slightly, and she turned her head to glance at him.

The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard hurriedly bowed his head.

A barely perceptible smile played at Zhi'er's lips as she feigned ignorance, continuing to gaze at the Emperor. "Your Majesty, please do not be angry. Let us sit down first. After all, there is nothing important to attend to today. We might as well hear what the Crown Prince has to say."

"What if what the crown prince said is beneficial to us"

The emperor's anger slowly subsided, and soon under Chi'er's lead, he sat back down again.

Zi'er walked to his side and her gaze fell on Mo Junyi below, "Imperial grandson, if you have something to say, just speak."

Realizing the emperor was so willing to listen to this woman, Mo Junyi's lips twitched slightly. But he couldn't be bothered to guess if the current emperor was under some sort of spell

He now knows that Zhi'er's identity is the young master of the Western Regions evil sect, and she has a very strong Gu poison. Perhaps the emperor has been controlled by him, so he doesn't need to worry about whether the emperor is awake at this time.

After Zhi'er said this, he remained composed, looked at Zhi'er, and finally his gaze settled on the Emperor's face. "Grandfather, if you wish to kill your grandson today, can you truly bear the consequences that will follow"

"Not to mention anything else, my fifth uncle now commands over a hundred thousand troops in Youlan City. He also possesses formidable weapons. Given my fifth uncle's regard for me, if I were to die in the palace, do you think my grandfather believes that, with his temperament, he would simply let it go"Yun Rui has already mastered it.Yun Rui listened to Lin Xi's words, his seemingly smiling yet not smiling eyes fixed on him.
