The man seemed to have lost all faith and looked at Tuoba Xuan with disbelief.

"We all thought you were killed. Everyone missed you and felt sorry for you. Some even regarded you as a hero who sacrificed for the country... But what are you doing?" The man stared at Tuoba Xuan and said with gritted teeth, "Not only are you alive, you are also a running dog of the emperor!"

The word "lackey" completely ignited the fire that Tuoba Xuan had suppressed in his heart.

Tuoba Xuan took a step forward and kicked the man over. His eyes were red as he said sternly, "You think of me and regard me as a hero?"

"Do you really think I'm a fool?" Tuoba Xuan almost shouted, "Have you ever looked up to me?"

His father treated him as a disgrace, his elder brother treated him as a joke, and other people in the royal court treated him as a joke...Except for his mother, no one treated him as a human being.

He was the second prince, but he was a second prince who did the lowest job of a servant, a second prince who could be beaten or scolded by any servant.

Now telling him that someone is still thinking about him after he might be dead, isn't it a particularly ridiculous thing?

Before he set out for the imperial court, these people had already written down his inevitable death.

But why, why was he the one to die, why did he have to suffer all this?

Tuoba Xuan grabbed the man by the collar and lifted him up fiercely, saying word by word: "I will make everyone regret it."

After saying this, he threw the person in front of him away and turned back behind Mo Xiao.

The man's hands and feet were disabled, and he was completely unable to keep his balance. He was crawling on the ground like a dog, and could only hold up his neck and raise his head.

"You have forgotten your ancestors and betrayed your country. You will not die a good death!" He uttered the most vicious curse at Tuoba Xuan.

Tuoba Xuan didn't say anything, and Mo Xiao stepped forward and blocked Tuoba Xuan behind him.

"He won't die," Mo Xiao narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "He will become the new king of the royal court, possess supreme power, live a life of wealth and glory, and go down in history."

Behind Mo Xiao, Tuoba Xuan suddenly looked up, with an astonishing light flashing in his eyes.

Mo Xiao said to the secret guard beside him: "Take him away for interrogation. I want to know what happened here."

Immediately, a secret guard stepped forward and dragged the shouting man away.

Mo Xiao took a deep breath and couldn't wait for the man to speak, so he led his men to follow the clues left by Chen Yuan.

About half an hour later, the interrogating guard quickly ran to Mo Xiao and said softly, "Your Majesty, I have found out the truth."

Mo Xiao immediately stopped and asked in a deep voice, "How?"

"General Chen Yuan is safe and sound," the secret guard said quickly. "General Chen Yuan encountered a patrol team from the royal court as soon as he landed. He had no choice but to fight hastily. When the battle was at a stalemate, General Lu An joined in with his men and together with General Chen Yuan, they wiped out the patrol team. The man just now escaped with luck, but he thought that he would die if he went back, so he might as well do something big, so that even if he died, it would be worth it. That's why what happened before happened."

After saying this, the secret guard couldn't help but sigh and said, "If everyone in the royal court is like him, then our battle..."

He didn't finish, but the meaning was self-evident.

Mo Xiao glanced at him and asked, "Are you scared?"

The secret guard immediately shook his head: "No."

Mo Xiao hummed and said casually, "You are no worse than them."
