Mʏ Tᴏᴜɢʜ Hᴜsʙᴀɴᴅ2 - Chapter 4: Chapter 4

At this moment, Mo Yanzhi and a group of secret guards came to Rock Lake Mountain.
Was this the mountain? At the foot of the mountain, Mo Yanzhi looked at the mountain in front of him. They had just passed through a forest and encountered some beasts attacking them.
However, his secret guards killed those beasts very easily.
The secret guards here already knew Mo Yanzhi’s identity but there was one thing Han Tingxuan did not know.
The reason why the secret guards who followed Mo Yanzhi knew his true identity was not because he had absolute trust in these secret guards.
In the imperial palace, there was a secret method that specifically controlled the secret guards.
These secret guards were specially trained for the emperor. As they were supposed to protect the emperor closely, they were restricted, including the leader of the secret guards.
The secret method, pills and antidote were controlled by the Emperor.
As this was something that could easily manipulate people’s minds, any brutal emperor wouldn’t succeed in the long run. Perhaps it may deter people in a moment, but it couldn’t last long.
Therefore, when Tian Yuexi shared the secret with Mo Yanzhi, he also shared many tips with Mo Yanzhi.
In addition, Tian Yuexi told him that not all the secret guards knew that they were already under control when they became secret guards. If they reveal any news that the emperor didn’t want to, they would be dead the moment they said it!
At that time, Mo Yanzhi was shocked!
Tian Yusu also told him that the secret guards did not take poison, but a type of bewitched worms. The mother bewitched worm was possessed by Mo Yanzhi. Once the secret was revealed, Mo Yanzhi could kill the baby worm that was implanted in the heart of the secret guard!
Because this method was too ruthless, it might damage the loyalty of the secret guards to a certain extent. In fact, it could also be used as a means to test the secret guards. Therefore, the emperor would not tell the secret guards in advance.
However, the top ten secret guards knew about this.
The leader of the secret guards knew it. More than that, although he was the leader of the secret guards, he was also implanted with a baby bewitched worm.
Mo Yanzhi would not tell his dear husband such cruel means of controlling human life.
Therefore, when Han Tingxuan was worried that the secret guard might betray him if he couldn’t control them very well, Mo Yanzhi didn’t say anything and obediently accepted Han Tingxuan’s arrangement.
However, no matter how well they were prepared, they couldn’t keep an eye on the secret guards all day long. Therefore, if there was something wrong between them, they wouldn’t be able to find out immediately.
Especially those who were very good at keeping secret.
Therefore, no matter how well they were prepared for betrayal, there was always a risk.
Mo Yanzhi hadn’t told Han Tingxuan that one secret guard had already betrayed him. It was Shadow 37, who was ranked out of 100 but got promoted to 37 gradually.
At that time, Mo Yanzhi had been the Emperor for more than a month, less than two months.
At that time, he was not pregnant yet. The secret guard only revealed a small detail about him, something abnormal about him.
After all, he was Mo Yanzhi, not the real Tian Yuexi. He couldn’t become another person in just two days.
In those two months, he worked hard to practice Tian Yuexi’s writing, little habits, and so on. Although most of time he practiced alone in the imperial study and he would burn his writing in the end, it was inevitable that there would be some mistakes. At that time, the secret guard secretly sent the news out.
Before the news was sent out of the palace, the secret guard was handed over to the leader of the secret guards.
One advantage of the mother worm was that when the emperor set up a ban, as long as the secret guards triggered something about the ban, the mother worm would sense it.
As long as the mother worm sensed it, it meant that the secret guard did something unusual. Because the secret guard was still under control, Mo Yanzhi did not kill him immediately, but left him to the leader of the secret guard.
In the end, they found out that the secret guard was trained by Duke Guanjing. He was sent over since he was a child. He had not contacted him once a year, so no one had discovered his secret.
If not for the secret ban set up by Mo Yanzhi, Shadow 37 would not be discovered!
Therefore, in fact, Mo Yanzhi was still very confident in his secret guards. However, he did not want his husband to know about this method of manipulating people’s hearts and life. Therefore, he did not say anything.
This time, Mo Yanzhi had brought a total of twenty five secret guards to Rock Lake Mountain, and all of them ranked in the top.
Including Shadow One and Shadow Two, Shadow Four and Shadow Seven!
“Shadow Seven, go and check with three people,” Mo Yanzhi ordered.
“Yes!” Shadow Seven received the order and picked three people to walk in front.
There were six rows, four people in a row. There was a distance between rows so that they could have enough space and time to retreat in case of emergency. The remaining two people were on both sides of the team and were on guard.
Mo Yanzhi was protected perfectly in the middle. There was no way he could be hurt.
Under the lead of Shadow Seven, the team entered Rock Lake Mountain. When Mo Yanzhi and the rest arrived at the white flowers that Tian Yusu passed by, the flowers were burnt to ashes.
Mo Yanzhi’s group paused there.
At this moment, a thousand royal palace warriors and five thousand soldiers from the City of Jade had already surrounded the entire mountain!
In addition, the thousand royal palace warriors were divided into four teams. Each team guarded each direction. Although they guarded with other soldiers, they were some distant from other soldiers.
Because royal palace warriors were brave killers!
Most importantly, the soldiers were afraid that they would hold the warriors’ back.
The commander of the City of Jade soldiers was Sun Yao, the grandson of General Sun, who was comparable to General Nangong. Although he was young, more than 20 years old, he was a well-known general at the border and was transferred to City of Jade last year.
Most importantly, General Sun was on the emperor’s side. Sun Yao was also one of Tian Yuexi’s favorite official, which was also why he had been transferred to the City of Jade.
City of Jade was one of the three major cities.
Sun Yao personally led the army, of course, under Mo Yanzhi’s order. He even said that he would cooperate fully with the royal palace warriors to catch everyone whoever would escape from all sides of Rock Lake Mountain!
He would kill whoever fought back.
The emperor was really angry this time. But Sun Yao only knew that Prince Chen’s husband seemed to have been taken away by the enemy
The enemy should be somewhere in the mountain!
The mountain was surrounded by forests. If the enemy fled into the depth of the forests, it would be hard to catch him.
It was in deed a good way for a good Kungfu master to get away from hunting in a forest.
The enemy may not that they were besieged by six thousand soldiers at the foot of the mountain. Even worse, outside the forest, there were fifty thousand soldiers waiting for them!
Fifty thousand, almost half of the troops of City of Jade!
However, the emperor gathered most of the troops here. It suggested that the emperor was furious.
In the Rock Lake Mountain, Mo Yanzhi was looking at the burnt dirt. A secret guard came to report, “The fire went out not long ago, probably two hours before.”
Mo Yanzhi frowned slightly. Tian Yusu and Han were both here.
But calculating the time, if Tian Yusu and Han set the fire, it took too long.
Did they only leave here for two hours?
But Mo Yanzhi was already here. Did it mean that they took different paths so that it took them a long time to come here?
After thinking for a while, Mo Yanzhi gave the order. “Advance.”
“Yes!” The secret guards continued to move forward.
At this moment, in a room, Han Tingxuan finally opened his eyes and realized that he was not in the cave, but in this strange place.
He quickly sat up from the bed and looked around. He set his feet on the ground and amazingly found that his stomach was warm. Before this, he felt dizzy, but right now, he didn’t feel anything strange.
However, he remembered that he had vomited blood.
But…why did he feel like he was feeling very comfortable now?
What was going on? After thinking for a while, he couldn’t figure it out why. Han Tingxuan was not desperate for an answer. He stood up and had a look around at the room.
He did not think he was a “guest”. Han Tingxuan had turned the entire room upside down.
In the end, he found a few porcelain bottles with a sign saying antidote, and a black stone. Although the surface of the stone was not beautiful, for some reason, Han Tingxuan felt that he was bonding to this stone.
Han Tingxuan felt inexplicably happy when he held this stone in his hand. Therefore, he put it into his pocket.
There were also basic martial art books in the cupboard. As Han Tingxuan did not know martial arts, he was not interested in these things. So he put the books back.
Just as he looked everything in the room but failed to find any way to get out of the place, the secret door opened. Then, Yun Yuan walked in and coincidentally saw Han Tingxuan searching.
Yun Yuan was speechless for a moment. “What are you doing?”
Han Tingxuan blinked and said, “See if there’s anything that can help me escape.”
Yun Yuan’s mouth twitched again. “So… you took a lot of good things from me?”
“I don’t know this is your room. I thought I was kidnapped again. Since there is no one in the room, I must find a way to save myself. This is what any normal people would do!”
Yun Yuan was not sure if he should understand this ‘normal people’, “…”
“Right,” Han Tingxuan took out the black stone out from his pocket. “What is this? I feel I am bonding to it.”
Yun Yuan’s mouth twitched again. “It’s a medicinal stone made from fleeceflower root that was more than five hundred years old. Of course, you are bonding to it,” he added a lot of medicinal materials that were hard to get in the world.
Han Tingxuan was really surprised. “Medicinal stone? What is it for?”
Yun Yuan paused and asked, “You don’t know the effect of a medicinal stone?”
Han Tingxuan was speechless. “I’m not a doctor. How could I know?”
Yun Yuan was speechless. He thought this was common sense!
Medicinal stones existed for the purpose of concocting medicine. Whether it was poison, antidote, or some other precious medicine, with a bit of medicinal stone, it could be a fatal poison or an antidote that was rare and priceless to get. Medicinal stone was such a miraculous thing. Even though the medicinal stone in Han Tingxuan’s hand was only the size of a fist, it could be used for a hundred years.
There were only three people who could make medicinal stones in the world, and there were less than ten medicinal stones!
This medicinal stone was something that he had spent a lot of effort, and even at the sacrifice of several subordinates.
Han Tingxuan was still confused when he saw Yun Yuan speechless. “What’s wrong?”
Yun Yuan had to repeat the effects of the medicinal stone and reach out. “Return it to me.”
Han Tingxuan knew that it was impossible for Yun Yuan to give him such a precious thing, but… “I kind of like it and it makes me feel so comfortable. I don’t want the entire stone. Give me a part of it. I will take it as your sincerity in cooperating.”
Yun Yuan was shocked by Han Tingxuan’s shamelessness!
“It seems that you are the one who is desperate for cooperation. Don’t forget that you are a hostage,” Yun Yuan couldn’t help but remind him.
Han Tingxuan not take it seriously. “His Majesty himself will not come, but he will definitely not ignore me. I guarantee that there are many people coming to save me outside. Perhaps there will be a military army.”
Of course, he was right because the current Emperor was his male wife. If Tian Yuexi was the emperor, Tian Yuexi might have sent secret guards or an army to save him, but it wouldn’t be too fast.
However, the Emperor was his male wife! Therefore, they must have been here.
