In the darkness, three figures stood out. Behind them, several black shadows flew over the city wall and invaded the interior of the arsenal.

Seeing this, Meng Fang quickly shouted, "Who is it?!"

However, just as he was about to give chase, he heard a familiar voice: "Sister-in-law, I heard that Brother Seven was injured, so I came to visit him. I wonder if Sister-in-law Seven welcomes you?"

Shu He looked at the person who came and saw that he was not in a hurry, not even surprised at all.

However, Meng Fang, who was standing next to him, widened his eyes as he watched the man walk out of the darkness into the light.

"Prince Nanyu?!" He had thought the person coming would be Prince Zhao...

Shu He looked at Baili Moyan and replied with a faint smile, "I didn't expect the Ninth Prince to be so thoughtful. You found out as soon as my prince was injured. People who didn't know the inside story would think that you were the one who hurt him!"

Seeing Shu He so calm and composed, Baili Moyan felt a surge of admiration in his heart, "Seventh Sister-in-law, you're joking! Ninth Brother has always cared for Seventh Brother, how could he possibly hurt him?"

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince's words are pleasant to the ears, but the way he did it wasn't very nice! If you really cared about my prince, you wouldn't have sent so many rats to infiltrate other people's territory and cause damage!"

Baili Moyan took two steps closer, and was only five meters away from Shu He. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Meng Fang step forward vigilantly and protect Shu He.

Baili Moyan was speechless for a moment. "Commander Meng, why are you so wary of me? I wouldn't do anything to my own sister-in-law."

Meng Fang snorted coldly and asked, "Your Highness, when I left the palace, the Emperor clearly stated that no princes other than Prince Li were allowed to leave the capital! So why are you here?"

"Also, that Zhuang Ye behind you? He originally belonged to the Eighth Prince. Why is he standing behind you now? Could it be that you also want to take him for yourself, and like the Eighth Prince, create a powerful weapon to rebel?"

"Treason?" Baili Moyan's face showed a sinister and arrogant smile. "Commander Meng, you're putting too much on me! Treason! Do you want me to die without a burial place?"

"Your Highness knows whether this humble official is making false accusations or not!" Meng Fang snorted coldly, "Your Highness, you appear before this humble official so brazenly. It seems you are determined to silence us all."

"Look at what Commander Meng said." Baili Moyan smiled softly, waving an ink-and-wash paper fan in his hand to dispel some of the heat in the air. Then he said casually and lazily, "This matter is not without room for negotiation."

"As long as you are willing to hand over the firearms manufactured in this arsenal and swear to stand behind me from now on, I will naturally not do this to silence you!"

"Not only that, I will also treat you all as guests of honor, just like the second son of the Shu family!"

As he said that, he led Shu Yuanqi out.

Shu He looked at the bastard who came back and wanted to punch him twice!

"Shu Yuanqi!" She showed a hint of resentment on her face, "You really refuse to repent!"

Shu Yuanqi, who was originally a little intimidated by Shu He, lost his temper after hearing her last words and shouted, "You bastard! Who told you to talk to your brother like that? I think you're the one who won't repent!"

"It's obvious that if our family were united, we would enjoy endless wealth and glory, but what about you? Just because of those little 'misunderstandings' in the past, you insisted on making our relationship so strained! You even killed Yuanbao!"

"Shu He, you don't deserve to be a member of our Shu family!"

"Just wait! Now that I have Prince Nanyu's help, sooner or later, I will use my own abilities to crush you under my feet!"

Shu He looked at him silently, his face cold.

Baili Moyan couldn't help but feel cheerful as he watched the two people arguing with each other.

"Sister-in-law Qi, it's rare to see you look so gloomy! Do you hate the Second Young Master very much?"

Shu He stared at him coldly without saying a word.

Seeing this, Baili Moyan said again: "Sister-in-law Qi, if you really hate him so much, why not kill him too? After all, you have already killed a younger brother, so you don't have to worry about killing another older brother."

After hearing this, Shu Yuanqi's face turned pale and he looked at Baili Moyan in disbelief, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"

"Hahaha!"

Baili Moyan saw his panic and couldn't help laughing, "Second Young Master, I was just joking, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"

Are you kidding? Humph, it's clearly a joke! Baili Moyan doesn't take Shu Yuanqi seriously at all!

Shu He also sneered: "Ninth Prince is of course joking. After all, my second brother will soon become your eldest son's second uncle! With such a close relationship, how could the Ninth Prince allow the child's uncle to be killed?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Baili Moyan's face froze instantly, and the pride in his eyes instantly turned into gloom.

How could his eldest son be the child of that bitch Shu Yue?

That bitch dared to plot against him again and again. Did she really think he was a soft persimmon that could be manipulated at will?

Just wait, when he has the trump card in his hand, he will let everyone in the Shu family see with their own eyes how that bitch and that evil creature die without a burial place!

"Fire! Fire! Put out the fire!!"

Panic and panicked sounds came from afar, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard faintly from the back.

Meng Fang turned around and saw that the raging fire was coming from the direction of those warehouses.

He turned back again, staring at Baili Moyan with murderous intent, "Prince Nanyu, do you know how many people are in there? Do you want to kill them all?!"

Baili Moyan shrugged, a casual smile appearing on his sinister face again. "Commander Meng, what are you talking about? The fire was caused by your own poor management. Can you blame me?"

Meng Fang ignored him and said to Shu He, "Princess, didn't you say we can't touch fire in there? There are still many brothers and workers in there!"

Shu He looked at Baili Moyan, his eyes dark and unclear. "It seems that the Ninth Prince doesn't care about the firearms made in the arsenal. So even if he wants to destroy them, he doesn't want to leave them to the emperor."

After hearing this, Meng Fang's eyes were filled with anger and coldness. He now had only one thought: after returning to the palace, he must tell the emperor everything that happened tonight!

He wanted to see if Concubine Ming could still save the Ninth Prince this time!

Baili Moyan did not deny it, but just looked at their panic and anxiety indifferently.

Shu He turned around and said, "Let's go and save them!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Loud roars echoed in the mountains, and the flames shooting up into the sky dyed almost half of the sky red.
