Just as Liu Rumei was about to touch the Snowy Silk, a big hand unexpectedly reached out first and grabbed it.
Scarlet blood dripped out almost in the blink of an eye. Liu Rumei was startled and quickly grabbed his hand. "Let go."
"Your Highness!"
Was he crazy? How could one just grab this thing directly? Did he not want his hand anymore?
Seeing the look of worry in Liu Rumei's eyes, Mo Liandi's heart softened even more, but there was also a hint of anger in his eyes. If he hadn't been a step faster, the wound would have been on her hand.
Liu Rumei was slightly stunned when she saw the displeasure in his eyes, but she quickly understood. Her heart softened, and she immediately said to Ye Zhe beside her, "Go and invite the doctor quickly."
Ye Zhe bowed respectfully and left in a hurry.
Mo Liandi's cold eyes swept across the people around him, and he said coldly, "The evidence is right in front of you. This matter has nothing to do with this king's princess. If this king hears any slander again..."
Before he could finish his words, his eyes swept towards the guard who had been standing quietly beside him. The guard immediately understood and drew out his sword in an instant. Without hesitation, he beheaded several people. Scarlet blood spurted out instantly, staining everyone's eyes.
The unspoken words of Mo Liandi just now made everyone suddenly understand. Their hearts trembled. Just like that, they were killed?
Those people didn't even have time to react before they fell to the ground, their eyes full of surprise.
They just listened to others and wanted to take the opportunity to make some money. How dared Mo Liandi kill them so openly?
But no matter how shocked they were in their hearts, they had lost their lives.
Everyone was also shocked by this bloody scene, and many people screamed in fear.
These screams finally woke up the unconscious Chu Huaikang!
As soon as Chu Huaikang regained consciousness and saw the scene around him, he was shocked. He couldn't help clenching his teeth and angrily got up from the ground. He angrily said to Mo Liandi, "This commoner respects Your Highness, but why did Your Highness capture this commoner here in the middle of the night?"
He had clearly left the capital, but he was still found by Mo Liandi. How powerful was the force in Mo Liandi's hands?
But now he couldn't care about anything else. Looking at the surrounding commoners and Mo Liandi's blood - stained hand, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.
A sneer flashed across Mo Liandi's face. "Master Chu went to great lengths to capture Hengniang and slander this king's princess in order to suppress this king through this king's princess. Tell me, who exactly told you to do this?"
Chu Huaikang was startled and subconsciously denied it. "How dare this commoner slander Your Highness? Even if Your Highness loves Miss Liu, you can't slander this commoner like this!"
"Then how did the wound on your hand come about?" Liu Rumei said coldly.
She really hated this hypocrite who pretended to be upright. "Since you think it's slander, what about this murder weapon?"
Reminded by this, Chu Huaikang also saw the Snowy Silk beside him. He was startled again. Didn't he hide it already? Why was it here?
Chu Huaikang's momentary hesitation was seen by everyone as guilt.
"Could it really be Master Chu?"
"Master Chu was so nice in the past. How could he be a murderer?"
"Didn't Your Highness just say that there was someone behind Master Chu!"
"Tsk tsk..."
"Don't say, wasn't that black - hearted boss the same before? He harmed so many people for the sake of fame! Master Chu is no good either. Bah!"
"Such people will surely be punished sooner or later!"
"It's just a pity that Miss Liu was innocently involved!"
"You're right... It's not easy for Miss Liu alone..."
"They said that Hengniang was a killer, but her hands are so clean. Where does she look like one?" But Hengniang was really good - looking. She had a good relationship with Miss Liu. Judging from the way the king treated her, she would surely be the princess of the Guo'an Mansion in the future!
If they could get in touch with her through this, their future would surely be limitless!
Sensing several faint peeping gazes, A Nan's face instantly turned cold. He subconsciously stepped forward to block in front of Hengniang, blocking everyone's sight.
Hengniang, however, impatiently pushed him away. "You're blocking my view!"
She couldn't even see Rumei...
For a moment, A Nan felt extremely wronged in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
After a while, Ye Zhe brought the doctor over. The doctor's face was full of cold sweat, scared by the cold air around Ye Zhe!
When they arrived at the yamen, the doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief. With so many people watching, what was there to be afraid of this person?
Upholding his medical ethics, he quickly stepped forward to treat Mo Liandi's wound.
Liu Rumei was full of self - blame in her heart, which made Mo Liandi feel extremely heart - ache. In the end, it turned into a long sigh. He said softly, "Don't be so reckless next time."
She still had to change this idea of risking herself.
Liu Rumei immediately understood what he meant. Her heart was full of guilt for a moment. She nodded gently and said, "I know. There won't be a next time."
Xue Zhan, who was beside them, frowned when he saw the two of them being so affectionate. His eyes were full of disgust.
He still held the folding fan in front of his face and said to the yamen runner beside him, "Quickly carry these things out."
The yamen runner quickly nodded. It was already very difficult for Lord Xue to endure for so long with so many corpses lying here.
Immediately, he quickly carried the corpses out. After a while, when the smell in the air dissipated a bit, Xue Zhan took down the folding fan in his hand and took a deep breath.
The on - looking commoners also exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. The process of Liu Rumei's autopsy just now still seemed vivid in their minds.
Xue Zhan coughed dryly and said to Chu Huaikang, "Since His Highness invited Master Chu here today, this official also wants to ask. Why did Master Chu attack this official and Constable Xiao? This official and Constable Xiao don't seem to have offended Master Chu, right?"
Hearing this, Constable Xiao was slightly stunned. But looking at the smile in Xue Zhan's eyes, he understood. He sighed and leisurely lay on his stretcher. Sure enough, one couldn't go against Lord Xue. How did their wounds come about? Didn't he know?
Master Chu was really unlucky!
Chu Huaikang was confused. It was true that he killed the people of the Xu family and sent people to take Hengniang away, but he really didn't send anyone to attack Xue Zhan!
Although Xue Zhan was only the prefect of the capital, there was the Grand Marshal's Mansion behind him. He still knew this!
"Lord Xue, you can't slander this commoner. Even if this commoner had the guts of a bear and a leopard, he wouldn't dare to attack you!"
