"She agrees, old man, I don't agree!" Suddenly, the old prince spoke up.
He really couldn't stand it anymore.
"This woman, she wants to kill not only my granddaughter, but also the quasi-Crown Princess!"
Shangguan Rou's emotions fluctuated greatly. To be honest, she didn't want to let Jiang Yue go. Compared to others, Qing Yan was her biological daughter!
Mu Yun knelt and walked up to the old prince, grabbing his clothes, with tears streaming down her face, "Grandpa, Yun'er, please..."
Unexpectedly, the old prince threw away her hand and said coldly: "Has she ever let Yan'er go? She is your sister!"
After speaking, her sharp gaze was directed towards Aunt Jiang on the ground, "And you, how long have you been gone since Nanping? You did such a shameless thing, it's simply not a pity to die!"
"Hahahaha" Aunt Jiang started to laugh wildly and pointed at them, "Everyone of you is looking at Mu Qingyan, who has ever considered our mother and daughter?"
"Mother!"
Mu Yun was startled and hurried over to hold her hand.
But it was already too late. The old prince was full of evil spirits and said, "My Mu family has never owed you mother and daughter! It's because you are too greedy."
He no longer wanted to look at Aunt Jiang for a second time, and his words were full of disgust, "Come here, take the tree branches down, execute her in a hurry, and throw her into a mass grave after death, so that those people can see the consequences of disloyalty!
"
Immediately someone came in and dragged away the branches.
As for Aunt Jiang...
The old prince looked at Mu Qingyan and decided to execute her.
As if she knew what he was going to say, Mu Yun suddenly stood up and drew out the sword of the guard beside her and put it on her neck.
"Yun'er!" Aunt Jiang screamed.
Shangguan Rou sighed, not knowing how his father would deal with it.
"Grandpa, if mother died today, Yun'er would not be alive! Even though she made all kinds of mistakes, she raised Yun'er after all." Mu Yun's eyes were firm and she tried her best to control the fear in her heart. This was her last chance.
.
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips, but she didn't expect Mu Yun to threaten her with death.
Chu Jing rarely experienced such a tense atmosphere and tried to minimize her presence. She was already shocked by Jiang Yue's incident.
The old prince looked at the situation in front of him and stared at Mu Yun with squinted eyes, "Mu Yun, have you thought about it? Are you determined to plead for this vicious woman?"
Mu Yun didn't say anything, she just put her sword on her neck and looked like she wouldn't back down.
The old prince's eyes were completely disappointed. He, Mu Sheng, had to be strong all his life, how could he have such a granddaughter.
"Your Majesty!" Suddenly, someone stumbled in from outside.
The old prince was furious and looked over with displeasure, "Why are you running away?"
The man stopped and said hesitantly: "His Royal Highness has sent someone over."
Bailiyou?!
Mu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, why did she send someone here now?
Mu Xuan looked at her subconsciously and already had the answer in his heart. He was probably here for Yan'er.
"please come in."
Shangguan Rou was a little confused, "Father, what is the prince sending people to do now?"
The old prince lowered his head in deep thought, could it be because of Yan'er?
Soon, the person was brought in. When she saw the person, Mu Qingyan was not too surprised. She had guessed that it was Liu Ying.
Liu Ying first saluted Mu Qingyan, "I have met Miss Qingyan," and then the old prince.
This sequence is not because Liuying doesn't understand the rules.
The old prince also recognized him, but now he was dealing with family affairs, and he felt a little uncomfortable when an outsider suddenly came.
Liu Ying glanced at Aunt Jiang and showed a surprised expression, but was very calm, "The prince asked his subordinates to bring a message to the prince and Miss Qingyan."
The old prince nodded.
Mu Qingyan was a little curious, what did Bailiyou want to say to her?
It seemed that they had seen each other less since they came back from Linggu Temple, and they were both busy with their own affairs, except for that time when she went to the East Palace to look for him.
Liu Ying faced her and said respectfully: "His Highness said, don't be merciful."
Don't be merciful...
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Aunt Jiang. It was obvious that this sentence was too targeted.
Mu Yun's face turned pale, why did even His Highness the Crown Prince want to interfere!
Mu Qingyan nodded.
"Your Majesty, the words have been brought to you. I will leave." After Liu Ying finished speaking, he turned and left.
Chu Jing was a little dumbfounded. She just left like that?? It was really just one sentence???
Shangguan Rou and Mu Xuan both looked at Mu Qingyan. The old prince turned his head and looked at her, "Yan'er, what are you going to do?"
Before Mu Qingyan could answer, she heard Aunt Jiang's smile.
She seemed to be crazy and turned a deaf ear to Mu Yun's words. After laughing, she looked at Mu Qingyan.
"I didn't expect that the prince would protect you like this. Mu Qingyan, I don't know what method you used to make the prince fascinated. I feel so ashamed!" She mocked, ignoring the coldness of the old prince and Mu Xuan.
eyes.
Mu Qingyan curled her lips, but she didn't feel scared at all. She even answered in a good mood: "I'm not like you, a snake-hearted person." At the end of the sentence, her expression turned cold.
"Mu Qingyan, how dare you!" Mu Yun realized something and didn't care about anything else, and stood directly in front of Aunt Jiang.
Mu Qingyan shook her head and said lightly, "You can't save her."
After finishing her words, Mu Yun was knocked unconscious by Mu Qi before she could react.
Seeing this, the old prince said in a deep voice: "Take the second young lady back and keep an eye on her."
"Yes." Not long after, someone came outside and took Mu Yun out.
Aunt Jiang looked at all this coldly, knowing that not even her daughter could save her this time.
Mu Qingyan looked at her condescendingly and ordered without expression: "Take her down. No one is allowed to visit her without my instructions."
Before being dragged away, Aunt Jiang glared at Shangguan Rou fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her.
Shangguanrou lowered her eyes. She regretted that she should not have let Jiang Yue in and buried the trouble.
"As for you." The old prince looked at Huajiao who was still kneeling on the ground, "I think that if you repent in time, I can spare you from death, but you will never escape your guilt. As an accomplice of the Jiang family, you will be dragged down and beaten twenty times."
Hua Jiao was overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" As long as he could live, anything would be good.
Mu Qingyan looked at her and suddenly asked, "Your brother and father are the only ones left in your family?"
Hua Jiao nodded, "Slave's mother passed away after giving birth to my younger brother. My father is in poor health and cannot work too hard. Although my brother is young, he is very sensible. He relies entirely on the monthly money sent back by this slave."
After saying this, she was filled with shame and said, "Thank you very much, Miss, for not killing me!"
Mu Qingyan fell silent because she thought of herself in her previous life, and Hua Jiao was also a poor person.
"Grandpa, hit the ten boards again, give her some silver, and send her back." After all, the wooden branches had tortured her a lot, and she might not be able to withstand those twenty boards.
The old prince nodded, "It's up to you, I don't care, old man."
Mu Qingyan curled her lips and then looked at Hua Jiao, "After your injury is healed, you will no longer be a member of the Mu family. You can go back. The palace will not let you stay any longer."
