Chapter 994 Was Deceived
As soon as Zuo Xing finished speaking, Dongyuan soldiers didn't follow suit immediately, they all looked at Puli.

Seeing that the soldiers did not respond to Zuo Xing's words, Puli raised his eyebrows anxiously: "Didn't you hear what the king said?! Do you want to be punished by Lord Deer God?!"

Only then did the soldiers put away their weapons and make way for them.

Zuo Xing came between the two sides and looked at Puli.

"Old General, what are you doing?"

"Your Majesty, do you know how important the contents of that box are to Dongyuan and you?" Puli was surprised, as if he couldn't believe that Zuo Xing would ask him this question so calmly.

Zuo Xing took a look at Mo Jiuxiao and found that he was still studying the box in his hand. Everything just now didn't seem to have affected him in any way, but the expression on his face at this moment clearly revealed deep disappointment.

Zuo Junyao stood aside and looked at Mo Jiuxiao. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start. In the end, she just raised her head and glanced at Zuo Xing.

Zuo Xing knew what was in her eyes, and he didn't expect such a result.

He had also heard about the purpose of Mo Jiuxiao's bringing troops here. He knew that the former came for the holy object, but he didn't expect that Dongyuan's holy object was just a rumor deliberately fabricated by Duoji for his own selfish desire.

This means that it is impossible to find the detoxification method of Zuo Junyao's toxins by relying on the holy object.

No wonder Mo Jiuxiao was so disappointed.

But Puli didn't know anything about it. He thought that Mo Jiuxiao had some evil intentions in stealing the seal of the king of Dongyuan, so he started the confrontation.

"Old general, have you come this far, don't you know the prince and Miss Junyao?"

"But..." Puli looked at the purple box in Mo Jiuxiao's hand complicatedly, a little hesitant.

Zuo Xing didn't expect him to understand anything, so he told him about Mo Jiuxiao's search for the holy object.

"It turns out that... the old man made a mistake, and I hope the prince and concubine can forgive me!" Puli was also a bold person, and realized that his misunderstanding almost caused the conflict between the two parties, so he hurriedly apologized.

Zuo Junyao understood his position and expressed her understanding.

But Mo Jiuxiao, who had finally reacted, was not concerned about these things.

"General Puli, is what you just said true?" There was manic anger in his words. If Dorje was here, he might vent this anger directly on Dorji.

"...Yes. The old man also knows Dorji's purpose, but he can't stop it..."

"You don't want to stop it?!" Mo Jiuxiao's aggressive demeanor surprised Puli.

Because Mo Jiuxiao guessed right.

Although Puli also knew that it was not appropriate to release such rumors, the seal of the king could not be kept forever, so in his heart, he also hoped that someone could open this box, take out the seal, and inherit the kingship.

Speaking of it, he can be regarded as Dorje's accomplice.

Seeing that Puli didn't speak, and the expression on his face could be regarded as acquiescing to Mo Jiuxiao's words, Zuo Junyao knew that their guess was correct.

But in that case, as the guardian of the king, making such a decision is also a helpless move, she can understand.

Speaking of which, all of this started because of her. If it wasn't for her, Mo Jiuxiao wouldn't be looking for the holy object so eagerly, and he wouldn't become manic because of disappointment after knowing that he was cheated.

Just as she was about to say something to calm Mo Jiuxiao's emotions, she heard Puli hesitantly ask, "Does Prince Duan still plan to go to South Vietnam to find holy objects?"
