Chapter 947: Chapter 947: What Good End Can There Be?

He could be certain that if he dared to utter a single word of dissent, he would be left in this cursed place to eat dust alongside Prince Lin.

"Miss, please calm yourself, calm yourself. Don’t stoop to Prince Lin’s level. He’s been on the mountain too long and speaks nonsense in a fit of anger. I will reprimand him, reprimand him, yes."

"Commander Mo!"

Upon hearing Commander Mo’s words, Sui Zilin felt like smoke was coming out of his head with rage.

He was a prince, after all. Those people were supposed to follow his orders. Even if he demanded their lives, they were obliged to obediently offer them up, and now someone had the gall to lecture him?

Had this Commander Mo grown too bold?

"Commander Mo, when did you become this wretched girl’s lapdog? Tsk, do you really think I can’t deal with you just because I’m in a predicament today? Once I get out of this hellish place, I’ll make sure the emperor executes your entire family...mmph!"

"Your Highness Prince Lin, please, no more words."

Before Sui Zilin could finish, Commander Mo covered his mouth and dragged him to the side for a private word,

"Commander Mo, what do you think you’re doing? How dare you lay hands on me? Are you tired of living?"

By the entrance of the cave, Sui Zilin finally shook off Commander Mo’s restraint and looked at him furiously, cursing.

"Your Highness Prince Lin, please... can you stop causing trouble? Whether we can leave White Blind Mountain depends on His Highness Prince Mo and that lady. If you offend both of them, what good can come of it?"

Commander Mo had originally thought his prior treatment of Lin Caisang, looking down on her and belittling her, was foolish enough. But now, he had met someone even more foolish.

This Prince Lin, it seems, had learned nothing from all the suffering he had gone through on White Blind Mountain.

"Just so you know, even the emperor himself has to show a bit of face to that lady."

"What do you mean?"

Sui Zilin glared at Commander Mo and asked.

"Weren’t they sent by the emperor? How dare they disobey the emperor’s orders? If they dare to mistreat me in any way, I’ll have the emperor execute every last one of them when I return!"

In any case, he wouldn’t spare anyone who showed him disrespect.

This Zimo had been spared by the emperor until now, but he had already been tolerated for far too long. If he now dares to disobey me, what use do I have for such a disloyal subject?

Best to just kill him and be done with it.

"Please, no more words,"

Commander Mo couldn’t help but inwardly wail. His Highness Prince Lin truly had no fear of trouble.

Had he been blind before? Why had he thought that by currying favor with Prince Lin and becoming one of his men, he would have a smooth and promising career?

No, that’s not right; that wasn’t it.

He had not compared Prince Mo to Prince Lin before. Now that Prince Mo had returned, and when compared side by side, the difference was like night and day.

"Your Highness Prince Lin, are you aware that to invite that lady to rescue you, the national treasury has almost been drained by her?"

Although this statement was a bit exaggerated, it wasn’t far from the truth.

The national treasury has always been of paramount importance to any nation; nobody gets to take a casual stroll in there. Since the emperor’s ascension, Lin Caisang was only the third person ever allowed inside.

And the previous two had established significant military merit for the Wei State, and even they, when entering the treasury, only chose one treasure and dared not covet anything else.
