Qi Ruoshui was already in Anhe City. She received the news from Western Liang almost at the same time as Mo Rongzhan.
"What did you say? Murong Ke was rescued and Wanyan Xi was brought back to the palace?" Qi Ruoshui slammed her hand on the table and angrily asked the servant who came to inform her of the news.
The man trembled in fear of Qi Ruoshui's anger. "Witch King, it was Mr. Huangfu who cooperated with Qian Luosha's people. They deliberately set up a trap to lure Lord John Doe away, so Qian Luosha had the chance to save Murong Ke. Lord John Doe was even poisoned and used by Huangfu Chen."
Qi Ruoshui was so angry that his heart, liver, and lungs were about to explode. "Trash, truly trash! You can't even look after a single person. Then why did the king think of Wanyan Xi?"
"Huangfu Chen went to the palace. Not long after he saw the king, the king woke up and said that he wanted to see the eldest prince."
"The King said that he wanted to see the First Prince," Qi Ruoshui asked suspiciously. The King of Xiliang had been under her control for a long time, so it was impossible for him to wake up so quickly. Could it be the final radiance of the setting sun? Even so, the person he wanted to see was not Wanyan Xi, but her.
He should have passed on the throne to her.
"Yes, yes."
Qi Ruoshui squinted her eyes. She had underestimated Huang Fuchen. His medical skills were better than she had imagined.
"Do you know what the King said to the First Prince?" Qi Ruoshui asked lightly.
"His Majesty doesn't allow anyone to enter the palace. No one knows."
Qi Ruoshui took a deep breath and said, "Let Wu Ming control the entire palace. Don't let the king do anything wrong."
"Yes, Shaman King."
Qi Ruoshui thought about it again and said in a low voice, "Let Nameless find a chance to kill Huangfuchen."
Huang Fuchen was too much of a threat to her if he was alive. Now that he knew what she had done, he would definitely come back for her if he was still alive. If she didn't kill him now, he would kill her in the future.
After sending the servant away, Qi Ruo held a piece of grass in her hand. She once wanted to learn divination from Huangfu Jielan, but he only taught her a little. Later, he refused to teach her anymore. She wanted to predict the current situation, but she couldn't. She could only predict that there was a bad omen for her.
Who else could kill her now? The only person Qi Ruoshui could think of was Huangfu Chen.
Therefore, Huang Fuchen had to die!
"Witch King, General Hai has returned from the barracks." A guard walked in and reported to Qi Ruoshui.
Qi Ruoshui glanced outside with a gloomy expression. She had been in Anhe City for a few days, but Hai Gang had been avoiding her. She couldn't help but wonder what Hai Gang was trying to do.
"General Hai, are you finally willing to see me?" Qi Ruoshui came directly to Hai Gang's study and looked coldly at Hai Gang, who had a simple and honest face.
"The Shaman King is here." Hai Gang stood up to welcome Qi Ruoshui with a smile. "Recently, the military camp has been too busy. I didn't have the time to entertain you properly after knowing that you've arrived at Anhe City."
Qi Ruoshui said calmly, "General Hai, you know very well why I'm here. When the Dark North Kingdom sought me out for an alliance, you promised to lend troops to Western Liang. Now that Donglai of Western Liang has fallen, why isn't the Dark North Kingdom sending us reinforcements?"
"Shaman King, you've also seen it. The Jin Emperor has personally set out on an expedition in Xia Province. It was with great difficulty that we were able to resist him," Hai Gang said helplessly.
Qi Ruoshui interrupted him coldly, "Two hundred thousand troops to resist Mo Rongzhan's fifty thousand elite troops. General Hai, are you kidding me?"
Hai Gang sighed. How could their two hundred thousand troops be called real soldiers? "Shaman King, let's discuss this properly."
"What else do you want to discuss?" Qi Ruoshui asked calmly. "The Dark North Kingdom doesn't seem to be very sincere in cooperating with Western Liang."
"Shaman King, it's not that I don't want to send troops to support Donglai. Even if they go, it won't help. You shouldn't have come to me, but to Wan Ziliang." Hai Gang said. He was very disgusted with Wan Ziliang's schemes. However, the Emperor trusted Wan Ziliang completely, and he was only following orders.
Qi Ruoshui raised her eyebrows slightly. "Isn't Wan Ziliang in the Wilderness?"
Hai Gang laughed. "It's the same wherever Wan Ziliang is."
There was something wrong with these words. Qi Ruoshui pondered carefully. She remembered that Anhe City hadn't won a single battle so far. She remembered that Wan Ziliang didn't need to go to the Wilderness, but he insisted on wasting time in the Wilderness with Ye Chunnan.
The most problematic thing was Anhe City. No matter how powerful Mo Rongzhan was, even if he was really invincible on the battlefield, it was impossible for fifty thousand troops to fight against two hundred thousand troops without being defeated.
These two hundred thousand troops were the elites of the Dark North Kingdom, not trash!
The trash Qi Ruoshui suddenly realized something. She suddenly looked at Hai Gang and said, "General Hai, the Dark North Kingdom can't be playing one trick on me, right?"
Hai Gang was a little surprised by Qi Ruoshui's acuity. She could actually guess it so easily. "Shaman King, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
"What is Wan Ziliang planning? How many people are left of your two hundred thousand troops? Do you still have half of them?"
"Of course, we still have one hundred and thirty thousand …" Hai Gang stopped before finishing his words. He coughed lightly and said, "Mo Rongzhan is a god in commanding troops. One of his soldiers can resist ten of us."
"Is Mo Rongzhan powerful, or are you all useless?" Qi Ruoshui asked coldly.
Hai Gang said, "Shaman King, if there's anything you don't understand, you can look for Wan Ziliang. I'm just following orders to stall Mo Rongzhan here."
Qi Ruoshui heard this and understood everything. It was just as she thought. The Dark North Kingdom had never planned to enter Xia Zhou from Anhe City. They had always kept their main force in the Wilderness.
Wan Ziliang was indeed a schemer. Even she was almost fooled.
"Shaman King, Wan Ziliang is different from me. He never planned to ally with Western Liang from the beginning. He might not do anything in the future. If you want him to agree to help, you have to give him some benefits." Hai Gang said when Qi Ruoshui was about to turn and leave.
Qi Ruoshui walked to the door and turned her head. "What benefits does Wan Ziliang want me to give him?"
Hai Gang smiled and said, "What benefits do you think Wan Ziliang wants to get by using two hundred thousand troops to stall Mo Rongzhan here?"
"If I use Mo Rongzhan's life to negotiate with Wan Ziliang, what conditions can he agree to?" Qi Ruoshui asked in a low voice.
"Probably everything." Hai Gang said with a smile.
Qi Ruoshui sneered and said, "No wonder Beitang Yu thinks so highly of Wan Ziliang. It's not without reason."
"It's good that Shaman King understands." Hai Gang smiled. In his heart, he hoped that Qi Ruoshui could deal with Wan Ziliang. For the Dark North Kingdom, Wan Ziliang was really not a good person.
Qi Ruoshui calculated in her heart. There seemed to be only one way to lure Mo Rongzhan out and kill him.
If Lu Yaoyao was in her hands, Mo Rongzhan would definitely come to save her.
