Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

General Qi's face showed some emotion.

The Third Prince’s wife was right. If she wanted to rescue so many refugees, she alone would not be enough.

The third prince is even worse off. His wealth is probably less than one-third of that of the third prince's wife.

General Qi really overestimated Ji Qichen and underestimated Mu Tangxi.

The financial disparity between the two is so huge that it's appalling to watch.

General Qi thought that among the refugees there might be some people whose families were killed by the enemy country because of their mistakes on the border.

He felt very guilty.

Mu Tangxi waited patiently for General Qi's answer.

She believed that General Qi had only one answer.

That is--

"I want to join you."

General Qi said with a firm expression.

At this time, it was Mu Tangxi who began to hesitate, "You? Otherwise, I'd better go find someone else. It takes a lot of money to help refugees."

General Qi became even more determined, "No, I can, please let me join!"

Mu Tangxi lowered her light-colored eyes, hiding the smile in them.

"OK then."

"But I have one more question."

General Qi was puzzled: "Any other questions?"

Mu Tangxi's face showed annoyance: "General Qi, why don't you explain clearly to those maids who slandered you? I don't believe you would kill civilians!"

The incident of "massacre of civilians" has been mentioned so many times that General Qi has become a little numb.

General Qi had to explain. After all, if he wanted to help the refugees together with the Third Prince's wife, he had to first explain the massacre of civilians.

Can……

General Qi still had some doubts in his heart.

Mu Tangxi then added fuel to the fire: "If His Majesty knew about this, he would definitely punish those maids!"

"Those damnable officials didn't tell your majesty the real situation, not even telling you that the refugees had arrived outside the capital."

"Your Majesty will definitely punish them severely if he finds out! After all, Your Majesty loves the people like his own children!"

General Qi looked at the naive Third Prince's wife and curled the corners of his mouth.

How could he say that His Majesty might have known about this a long time ago?

Your Majesty can know his every move in the border town from the palace.

With such terrifying spies, how could Your Majesty not know what is happening so close to the capital?

Those officials did not say anything in the court, probably because they realized that His Majesty did not want to get involved in this matter.

Love the people like your own children?

Haha, ridiculous.

No one can compare to the prince!

Even though General Lu under the prince's command kept making mistakes on the battlefield.

But Your Majesty did not demote General Lu at all.

Instead, he made an exception and promoted Xu Guangzhu, who had performed well, to the rank of general to help assist General Lu.

General Qi denied it in his heart while listening to what the Third Prince's wife said.

Your Majesty is not their Majesty, not the Majesty of the people, but the Majesty of the Crown Prince.

General Qi's headache got even worse when he thought about the style of the next crown prince.

What has become of their Congress?

"I didn't kill any people, I just killed some scum and beasts."

General Qi felt extremely happy and relieved when he said it, as if the burden that had been weighing on him for a long time had finally disappeared.

"Those people actually dared to leak secrets to the enemy country. Even if we kill them a hundred times, it would not be cruel enough!"

"It's just that this matter should not be made public, otherwise it will cause panic among the people, so the family members of those people did not die, but were sent to my house for custody."

Mu Tangxi was a little confused when he heard this.

Since it was General Qi who was guarding them, why was it General Qi who was tortured so much?

What happened?

General Qi took a deep breath and said, "Something went wrong."

"I killed them according to the list given by His Majesty, but the list was wrong."

Mu Tangxi's eyes paused, the faint amber eyes flashing with coldness.

General Qi looked a little unhappy. He looked down at the thick calluses on his palms and said, "It's not completely wrong. At least those traitors are all in there. There are just a few more innocent civilians."

Mu Tangxi raised his eyebrows: "Who compiled the list that Your Majesty gave you?"

General Qi was silent for a moment, "I don't know."

“Those who spread rumors in the mansion are the families of those innocent civilians.”

“So, I can’t refute it.”

Because he literally killed innocent civilians right before their eyes.

Whether it was a massacre or not is no longer important.

Mu Tangxi finally sorted out some of his thoughts, but there were still many contradictions.

For example, the families of those innocent civilians who died seemed to know that they were wrongly killed, and they righteously trampled on General Qi's face without any fear.

Also, could the extra people on the list be added by the emperor himself?

In order to control General Qi.

Mu Tangxi's sparkling eyes looked at General Qi softly, like a mother looking at a child covered in bruises, with a hint of sadness in her eyes, "You have worked so hard over the years."

General Qi felt that the Third Prince's wife's expression was a little strange, but after hearing what she said, he actually felt aggrieved.

He was just doing things according to the names on the list, so why did His Majesty directly blame him in the end?

He also ordered General Qi not to drive away the families of the civilians. General Qi had to endure their cold words and provide them with food and clothing!

The more I think about it, the more I feel aggrieved!

General Qi saw the Third Prince and General Xu walking towards him from the corner of his eye, and he finally retracted the tears in his eyes.

Mu Tangxi also looked at Ji Qichen and was shocked.

I haven’t seen you for a while, why does Ji Qichen’s face become so colorful?

Driven by curiosity, Mu Tangxi approached Ji Qichen, raised her finger and poked Ji Qichen's slightly swollen cheek.

"hiss!"

Ji Qichen's eyes were instantly filled with tears, but he did not cover his face anymore, as he couldn't hide them anyway.

Damn Seo Kwang-soo! He actually slaps people in the face!

Ji Qichen felt that Xu Guangzhu was still dissatisfied with Tangxi marrying him, so Xu Guangzhu was taking the opportunity to take revenge!

What a cruel attack!

Mu Tangxi poked it and found that it was actually swollen.

Xu Guangzhu first chatted with General Qi with a smile on his face. He found that something was wrong with General Qi, but their relationship was not close enough for him to ask questions.

General Qi also knew that now was not the time to talk about refugees with the Third Prince's wife, so he left first.

After General Qi left, Xu Guangzhu asked his cousin nervously: "What did General Qi say to you? You must not trust others easily!"

"Although I admire General Qi very much, I can't assume that he has no ill will towards us just because of this!"

"Besides," Xu Guangzhu lowered his voice, "Aren't we all the prime minister's men? We are not on the same side as General Qi."

Behind General Qi is the emperor, and behind them is the prime minister.

We are destined not to be able to stand together.

Mu Tangxi didn't say anything, just nodded obediently.

His hand was still gently poking Ji Qichen's face.
