The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant
Chapter 1228 Sincerity
Everything went smoothly for Lin Jiuqing in the palace, but Mo Xiao and Chen Yuan at the border had a much harder time.
Since Tuoba Xuan agreed to cooperate with Mo Xiao, he was placed under house arrest in the camp. Except for a soldier who delivered three meals a day, he never saw anyone else. The soldier who delivered the meals lowered his eyebrows and didn't say a word. No matter what Tuoba Xuan asked, he didn't give any response like a mute.
Tuoba Xuan could still control himself at first, but after a few days, he was almost going crazy.
He seemed to be abandoned by the world. He could see everyone, but no one seemed to see him.
When he was about to lose control, the curtain of the tent was finally lifted, revealing Mo Xiao and Chen Yuan.
Mo Xiao was followed by Lu An, who was holding a scroll, paper and pen in his hand.
When Tuoba Xuan saw the person, his eyes turned red, and he said with almost gritted teeth: "You finally showed up."
Chen Yuan looked at him coldly and said, "Is this your attitude when you meet His Majesty?"
Although she saw that Mo Xiao was disrespectful and rude, it did not mean that she could tolerate others treating Mo Xiao like this. First of all, Mo Xiao was her brother-in-law, and it was a family matter behind closed doors, but she could not let others humiliate Mo Xiao's face outside. Secondly, Mo Xiao was the monarch, the emperor, the master of the world, and the person she was loyal to, so she could not let others humiliate her monarch.
Mo Xiao glanced at her sideways, seeming a little surprised.
But Mo Xiao didn't say anything, he glanced sideways at Tuoba Xuan.
Tuoba Xuan took a deep breath, knelt down slowly, and said word by word: "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor, long live His Majesty."
Mo Xiao raised his hand slightly: "Get up."
He walked to the chair and sat down, then casually asked Tuoba Xuan: "Prince, have you thought it through these days?"
Tuoba Xuan pursed his lips and said, "I have already made the decision and expressed my opinion in front of Your Majesty. Why does Your Majesty need to ask me this question again today?"
Mo Xiao curled his lips: "Isn't this because I'm afraid that you, Prince, are hesitant and I'm giving you time to think things through calmly?"
Tuoba Xuan: "Is this the reason why your majesty has put me under house arrest?"
Mo Xiao looked at him with a half-smile: "The prince has a lot of complaints."
Tuoba Xuan: "..."
Tuoba Xuan closed his eyes and spoke in a much softer tone: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. I have no complaints, I just don't understand."
Mo Xiao sneered and said no more to him. Instead, he asked Lu An to open the scroll he brought and set out the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.
Mo Xiao: "Since Your Highness has thought it through, please go ahead."
Tuoba Xuan looked at the blank scroll blankly: "What does your majesty mean?"
"Since you want to cooperate, I will naturally test your sincerity," Mo Xiao pointed to the blank scroll, "Draw the topographic map of the outside of the Great Wall on this scroll, and I will believe that you are sincere in your cooperation. I will definitely fulfill my promise to you."
Tuoba Xuan's face changed several times and he was speechless for a long time.
If he drew this topographic map today, it would be the biggest evidence of his treasonous behavior. If this evidence fell into Mo Xiao's hands, even if he got everything he wanted in the future, he would still be controlled by Mo Xiao.
His fingers trembled uncontrollably, and he said dryly, "I am not an expert in this field, and I am afraid I cannot paint well. How about I dictate it, and Your Majesty can find someone capable to paint it? I promise that every word I say is true, and I will never lie."
