Dugu Liancheng's expression was condensed, and he looked at Mu Ci for a long time.
"There have been several murder cases in Weiyang Palace. What does the Queen Mother have to say in defense?" After a moment of silence, Dugu Liancheng's thin lips opened slightly.
His words were equivalent to confirming that Mu Ci had killed these dozen slaves and condemned her.
"The emperor handed over the knife, and the Ai family killed people. The Ai family also served the imperial family. If we really want to defend ourselves, wouldn't it prove that what the emperor did was wrong?" Mu Ci glanced at the corpse on the ground, "The Ai family has already helped the emperor deal with these things.
Servant, the hard work of collecting corpses should be left to the emperor."
Dugu Liancheng looked at Mu Ci with cold eyes and talked to himself.
He put the blame on this woman, but she actually hit the target and claimed that she was under his instruction.
This time, he came here to deliberately make things difficult for her. How could he let her shirk responsibility?
"You are a little girl after all. Do you dare to do what the Queen Mother does? Do you think it will insult the Mu family? It involves more than a dozen lives. I can't just let it go. I have to give everyone an explanation no matter what!" Dugu Liancheng raised his palm and said,
Some guards came forward and wanted to capture Mu Ci.
Sizhu stood in front of Mu Ci for the first time and shouted loudly: "This is the Queen Mother. Even the emperor must be courteous to the Queen Mother. I will see who of you dares to touch a hair of the Queen Mother!"
The way she spoke righteously attracted everyone's attention.
Mu Ci was pleased and found it funny at the same time.
Dugu Liancheng wanted to embarrass her, how could Sizhu stop these people?
"Sizhu, step back." Mu Ci said, pulling Sizhu behind him: "You take good care of Yingchun and don't let her make any mistakes. The Ai family will just go with the emperor."
As she spoke, she walked slowly towards the carriage and sat down in full view of everyone.
Dugu Liancheng's expression was complicated. He never expected that Mu Ci would be so bold as to dare to sit on the emperor's dragon throne.
"The emperor invites the Aijia for such a big event. It shouldn't be a problem for the Aijia to sit on the emperor's throne, right?" Mu Ci looked at Dugu Liancheng with a half-smile.
Maybe one day, she will really kill this emperor.
After all, with the supreme imperial power, like Dugu Liancheng, you can blame whomever you want and punish whomever you want.
Dugu Liancheng looked at Mu Ci for a long time, and finally decided to be a big man and not care about a little girl.
He got into the chariot, sat down next to Mu Ci, and whispered, "If you beg me for mercy, I can absolve you of your guilt."
Mu Ci turned his eyes and fixed his gaze on Dugu Liancheng's profile: "Why did the Ai family ask for mercy? It was not the Ai family who did the wrong thing. Emperor, there is no outsider at the moment, so there is no need to pretend. The Ai family knows that this is your masterpiece.
.You, the majestic king of a country, don’t feel ashamed to use such despicable means to frame the Ai family?!"
Dugu Liancheng's eyes darkened slightly.
He never thought about this problem at all.
Probably because he was threatened by Mu Ci last time, he felt unhappy and took the opportunity to retaliate.
"If the Ai family doesn't like someone, they won't pay attention to that person, or they can just avoid it. The emperor frequently makes things difficult for the Ai family, could it be because..."
"It's just that you have an unpleasant temper!" Dugu Liancheng said, ordering people to speed up and send Mu Ci to the prison.
The news about Mu Ci being imprisoned in the sky prison quickly spread.
The happiest person among them is of course Yun Xi.
She and Mu Ci had deep old grudges. If Mu Ci was thrown into the heavenly prison and never came back, he would be avenged for the beating with the stick in Weiyang Palace that day.
