Chapter 234
After finishing his speech, with all the nuance hidden in his meanings, he took the wine glass and poured it into a green jade bowl.
Li Hao retreated and sat down on the side.
Mo Linyuan happily nodded in approval, “Anyone else?”
Crickets were heard. Mo Linyuan chuckled, “Looks like all of you are still the same as before. You really like to test my patience.”
His words made the faces of those kneeling turn even paler.
Ye Mu was aware that the imperial guards could not block off the others for too long. Those returning were quickly approaching the camp now. In this pressing race against time, she suddenly giggled childishly, “Brother Emperor, I’m hungry! Let’s modify this game so that we can finish this up quickly!”
“Oh? Tell me.”
Ye Mu replied, “Let’s distribute these fine wines among them and give them around 15 minutes to decide. In this timeframe, they can choose to offer the wine to Zhou Yong’s jade bowl, or drink it themselves. After 15 minutes, if they still can’t make a decision, we’ll just have the imperial guard brothers help them drink it themselves. What do you think?”
Mo Linyuan’s eyes shined in admiration for her plan, “Your idea isn’t bad at all.”
After the discussion, he signaled the poisonous wines to be poured and distributed into these people’s hands. Quite a few of their hands were shaking so uncontrollably that they almost spilled the wine.
Seeing this, Ye Mu maliciously cackled, “You guys need to hold your glasses steady. Behind this camp are where the women reside. If you don’t steady your hands, I’ll go give all the women a glass of wine myself. At that point there will be no argument of who will drink or not drink.”
Ye Mu usually doesn’t speak, but when she does, it causes apprehension deep in their guts! It’s no wonder she’s Mo Linyuan’s most significant person; she’s an absolute witch! Her actions seemed awfully ruthless.
In fact, even Mo Linyuan was astonished to hear Ye Mu talking like that. He knew deep down Ye Mu was not a coldblooded killer. She was doing this for his sake!
She clearly comprehended and feared that dragging this on would ruin things. As once the others returned from the forest, these people would loosen their manners, and consequently, he would have to face more exhaustive troubles. That’s why, for his sake, she was willing to abandon certain inhibitions. She firmly stood by his side. Her frame and stature was commanding, leaving no indication of her restlessness, with the exception of her hands.
Mo Linyuan saw her hands tightly gripped onto her skirt, faintly trembling.
He was suddenly consumed by anger, and sneered, “Let’s forget about the 15 minutes, you all only have 3 seconds to consider. Besides, a lot of people already died tonight during the hunting event, adding a few more wouldn’t really make much of a difference!”
After he impatiently stated this, everyone tensed up. This time, they did not dare to hesitate again. Everyone immediately carried the wine in front of Zhou Yong. Regardless of his scowl, right in front of his eyes, they poured those cups of poisonous wine right into the bowl. Rapidly, the bowl was full. The bowl of wine permeated an enchanting aromatic fragrance, with a faint green tint in it!
“Perfect.” Mo Linyuan immediately commanded, “Zi Xu, you can personally send him off!”
“As you command!” Zi Xu walked in front of Zhou Yong and pulled him off the ground. As he removed the cloth from Zhou Yong’s mouth, the guy started to furiously yell, “How dare all of you! I am the heir of the Zhou family! You still dare to do this?! Just you wait, You all will die for this! My dad won’t let you off! All of you will definitely die!”
Those people all withdrew to the side and kept their head down. Zi Xu didn’t waste anymore time and forced open Zhou Yong’s mouth before pouring the bowl of wine down his throat.
Zhou Yong struggled relentlessly, but because he was tied up, how could he possibly break free? With the bowl of wine now in his stomach, Zhou Yong twitched from head to toe. Since the wine was highly toxic, he died immediately. Yet even in death, his eyes remained open in grievance!
As for the 40 people standing at the scene, they were all his murderers!
