My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Mei Xueer was stunned. She stood there like a puppet for a long time. Her mind was filled with the scene of Xiaobao using his body to create a space for her and trying to let her survive at the cost of his own life.

Suddenly, she burst into tears and rushed towards Zixuan like crazy, "I'm going to kill you, I'm going to fight you..."

Li Mo grabbed her and held her tightly in his arms, "Don't be impulsive! He is lying to you!"

This sentence made Mei Xueer freeze instantly. She looked at Li Mo with red eyes: "Lie, lie to me?"

"I guess when Zixuan came here, Shi Laosan and Xiaobao were no longer at home, otherwise they would have cleaned and repaired the house, but there are no signs of human cleaning in this yard."

"You mean, they were gone when the flood came..."

Li Mo shook his head: "Think about it, what time was it when the flood arrived here?"

Mei Xueer: "It should be when dawn is approaching."

Li Mo: "The Xiangxi Dam collapsed after the Yin hour but before the Mao hour. Zixuan chose to destroy the dam before dawn when people were sleeping soundly in order to drown more people. But Shi Laosan was a pork seller. The day of the accident happened to be a market day in Beijing. He must have gone to sell pork, or even more than one pig. So he would have gone out to kill pigs, cut them up, and set up a stall at the latest after the Yin hour. So I concluded that he must not have been at home when the flood came. Xiaobao is very sensible and very strong, so he must have gone to help his father kill pigs."

These words made Mei Xueer calm down instantly.

Yes, she was too concerned and confused. She was anxious to know the whereabouts of the father and son and ignored many things. She was not as calm as Li Mo, nor as observant and meticulous as him.

But where were Shi Laosan and Xiaobao? She still felt worried until she saw them.

Li Mo saw her worry and said, "Don't worry, I will find a way to find them."

Zixuan saw them whispering something and Mei Xueer's expression quickly relaxed. Zixuan did not say a word, nor did he beg for mercy. He just looked at the people in front of him with no expression, and finally locked his eyes on Meng Nan in the distance.

Meng Nan tried to pretend that he didn't see him, but Zixuan kept staring at him.

"Alas!" Li Mo sighed, "Let them talk alone."

Mei Xueer nodded. No matter how Zixuan had helped the tyrants in these years, no matter how cold-blooded Meng Nan was, Zixuan had treated him well in these years. Meng Nan had told her that when Cui Hongqi threw him into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave, he was dying, but it was Zixuan who secretly found a doctor and saved his life.

Everyone stepped aside, leaving the space for the two of them alone.

Looking at Helian Lanfeng and the dead warriors who were about to wake up, Wen Yi was a little worried, "Miss, how should we deal with these people?"

"Give it to Cui Hongjing." Mei Xueer and Li Mo said at the same time.

After saying that, the two smiled at each other. Wen Yi inexplicably ate a mouthful of dog food again.

"Press their acupoints to prevent them from committing suicide by taking poison. These people are all desperate men." Li Mo added.

"Okay, leave it to me." Wen Yi went to press the acupoints readily.

After a while, Meng Nan came over, looked at Mei Xueer, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"No matter what you want to say, you can tell me." Mei Xueer said in a gentle tone, "Even if you want to save him?"

Upon hearing this, a different look flashed across Meng Nan's dead eyes. After hesitating for a while, he mustered up the courage to say, "He just wanted to die with dignity... He has been treating me well since childhood. Moreover, in terms of killing, over the past decade, more innocent people have died in my hands than in his."

Mei Xueer thought Meng Nan's first sentence was normal, but when she heard the last sentence, her body trembled a little, and she leaned on Li Mo, her eyes suddenly red.

Yes, Meng Nan was the killing machine that Cui Hongqi had trained since childhood. I don't know how many people he had killed for Cui Hongqi and how many evil things he had done. If we were to punish him according to the law, even if Meng Nan was tortured to death, it would not offset the evil he had done.

She had ignored this before, or perhaps refused to think about it.

Is it just because he is her brother and because he is also a poor man that he has no right to atone for what he has done?

Although in this world, the so-called royal law can never outweigh the words of those in power, the education she received since childhood did not allow her to think so.

"So, what do you think?" she asked in a trembling voice.

"I..." Meng Nan lowered his head, digging his toes into the ground. After a long while, he raised his head with a firm face: "I am willing to tell you everything I know. Ever since Wang, Cui Hongqi stabbed me in the chest, I am no longer his killing tool. I just don't know if I still have a chance if I turn back now. Is it too late? If I can survive by chance, I am willing to spend the rest of my life to atone for the sins I have committed."

After hearing these words, Mei Xueer let out a long breath as if relieved from a heavy burden.

Mei Xueer's younger brother and Princess Anping's son is a responsible man. Even if he has made mistakes, he has the courage to face his sins.

Mei Xueer asked Gu Jia and others to contact Cui Hongjing as soon as possible and ask him to send people to arrest these traitors, while she pulled Li Mo's sleeve.

Li Mo had said before that he would take her somewhere else.
