Chapter 86 Kangxi's Attack
Wei Xiaobao's words were as cold as ice, and even Kangxi, an observer, could feel the deep hatred in them.

"After this period of delay, I have made general preparations for the abolition of the feudal lords."

"But Xiao Bao, don't worry. With the strength of our entire nation against a small corner of Yunnan, our advantage will increase with each passing day."

"Once the rebellion of the regional military governors is quelled, I will surely confiscate the property of the Prince of Pingxi and exterminate his entire family to avenge you."

Hearing Emperor Kangxi, as an emperor, speak such heartfelt words, even Wei Xiaobao, who had become completely corrupted, felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"Your Majesty has always treated Xiaobao like family. If there is anything Xiaobao can do to help, please give the order. Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, Xiaobao will not even flinch."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing Wei Xiaobao speak in this way, Kangxi was overjoyed.

"Tomorrow I will summon him to the palace for an audience. Xiao Bao, you will accompany him. Let's first investigate the Pingxi Prince's residence."

Could it be that not long after arriving in the capital, they received an imperial edict brought by the eunuch?

"It was explained that they should rest for the day, and that Kangxi would summon them to the palace tomorrow."

Mo Fei touched the porcelain bottle he carried with him, watching the Qing Dynasty eunuch quickly leave after delivering the imperial decree, and muttered to himself:

"Looks like they're about to reveal their true intentions!"

After the group rested at the inn for one night, the next morning, a eunuch came to escort Mo Fei and the others into the palace.

Once you've been there, you'll get used to it. Having visited the palace several times, Mo Fei was quite familiar with the Qing Palace.

Not long after arriving at the Yingwu Hall, which was specifically for receiving guests, footsteps could be heard at the palace gate.

Emperor Kangxi, dressed in his imperial robes, rode in first, looking radiant.

What attracted Mo Fei's attention the most was the man behind Kangxi, dressed in a bright red robe with long hair flowing down his shoulders.

"This Wei Xiaobao has changed a lot, and judging from his aura, his strength has improved considerably. You should be more durable now, right?"

Wei Xiaobao's change didn't make Mo Fei feel much. After all, even the strongest ant is still an ant, so what threat could it pose to him?
"Minister Wu, it has been a long time since we last met. You seem a little distant from me. We are family, there is no need to be so formal."

As Kangxi spoke with Mo Fei, he also observed Long'er and Feng Xifan, who were accompanying Mo Fei to the audience.

"I have met Lord Long before. This must be General Feng Xifan. I heard from Xiaobao that General Feng's martial arts are among the best in the world. It's a pity that he is stuck in that small place in Yunnan."

Upon meeting Feng Xifan, Emperor Kangxi praised his abilities, showing that he valued him highly. During the banquet, he frequently chatted with him, revealing his intention to recruit him.

However, this time, Kangxi was noticeably more distant from Mofei and Long'er than the first time.

"Minister Wu! I've heard that Xiao Bao and you had some friction in Yunnan, and it even escalated to the point of armed conflict. I wish to know the details. Can you tell me?" Midway through the banquet, Kangxi suddenly challenged Mo Fei with this question:
Mo Fei sneered inwardly, thinking, "As expected, this banquet is no fun at all."

"I was reluctant to say more, but since Your Majesty has asked about this matter, I will now tell Your Majesty the details of how Lord Wei colluded with the Heaven and Earth Society to assassinate me."

When Wei Xiaobao, who was sitting to Kangxi's left, heard Mo Fei's reply, his face immediately turned cold. He raised his head with a sinister look and stared at Mo Fei with eyes as sharp as a venomous snake.

"Wow! Lord Wei has changed so much since he fled from Yunnan to escape punishment. I almost didn't recognize him."

Seeing Wei Xiaobao staring at him, he didn't hold back and stared back, even making teasing remarks with a smile.

Mo Fei, however, had already discerned the situation on the field.

Kangxi's actions clearly indicated a bias towards the enemy; why would he be so foolish as to obediently offer an explanation?

"Oh, Wu Qing said that Xiao Bao fled to avoid punishment. What makes you say that?"

Kangxi asked Mo Fei with some doubt.

"Your Majesty, this Wei Xiaobao is colluding with Chen Jinnan, the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society rebels, and is even his disciple."

Furthermore, he holds the position of the leader of the Green Wood Hall of the Heaven and Earth Society, wielding considerable power and influence within the organization. Is His Majesty aware of this?

"what……!"

Kangxi, who was originally about to confront Mo Fei, was so shocked by the bombshell Mo Fei revealed that he suddenly stood up and turned to Wei Xiaobao to ask:
"Xiao Bao, is what Minister Wu said true?"

"Your Majesty...it is me!"

Wei Xiaobao was about to explain, but Mo Fei wouldn't let him have his way. Mo Fei suddenly stood up and loudly addressed Kangxi:
"Your Majesty! Wei Xiaobao's feet are Qingming on the left and Qingming on the right. When read together, it means 'overthrow the Qing and restore the Ming,' which clearly reveals his anti-Qing intentions."

"The reason he was sent to the palace by Chen Jinnan was to steal the Forty-Two Chapters Sutra of the Great Qing Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, do not be fooled by his sweet talk in the hopes of finding the Qing Dynasty's dragon vein and then seizing the opportunity to destroy it and sever the Qing Dynasty's fortune."

During this period, Wei Xiaobao, due to the appearance of Mo Fei, did not have the opportunity to establish the numerous merits described in the original work.

He was far from being as open and honest with Kangxi as depicted in the original novel, revealing everything to him.

When Mo Fei exposed all his secrets on the spot, his face turned ashen, and he was deeply shocked.
