Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

For some reason, Mu Yuanzhi felt a little ashamed of himself.

But he quickly recovered and looked at Song Zhi with unwavering determination.

"Child, some things are destined by heaven. If everything is in vain, why waste your efforts?"

Song Zhi raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "How do you know it's a waste of effort?"

Mu Yuanzhi's voice was firm, "You will know."

"There are only two paths before you now. One is to surrender, and the other is to be crushed by the imperial court. No matter how powerful you are, you can't be stronger than the power of an entire country, right?"

Looking over Song Zhi's shoulder, his gaze fell on Mu Nanqi, who was like an iceberg behind him.

Their eyes met, and an invisible collision spread in the air.

Finally, it was Mu Yuanzhi who spoke first: "Third brother, it's not good to hide behind a woman all the time."

Mu Nanqi had no intention of going forward. "She is protecting me, so why not hide away?"

Mu Yuanzhi choked, incredulous, "You support this child's mischief?"

"She's not messing around."

Mu Nanqi corrected him, "A man's dignity should not be based on the oppression of women."

Song Zhi smiled and said, "That's a very good point."

Her eyes were full of smiles. "Your Highness, did you hear clearly? This is the difference between you two. Your minds and bearings are far from the same level."

"No!"

Mu Yuanzhi denied it out loud, and then he looked at Song Yang, "Sir Song, you are an important official of the court. Don't you care about them saying such outrageous things?"

Song Yang pretended to be embarrassed and muttered softly,

"Their mouths are on their bodies. Can I sew them shut?"

"Sir Song, you are aiding and abetting the evil! Or are you in cahoots with them?"

Song Yang quickly shook his head and waved his hands, "I didn't, I didn't, Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense, this is pure false accusation."

Mu Yuanzhi's expression was stern, and he said, "It's okay for me to believe you, Master Song, but you have to prove yourself."

Song Yang took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. "Hiss, I suddenly remembered that I left my things at home. I have to go back and look for them."

He turned and left without hesitation.

After walking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Your Highness, since the Emperor has entrusted this matter to you, you should take full responsibility. I will not ask any more questions. I will take my leave."

After saying that, he walked very fast, and his legs almost left an afterimage.

He returned to his carriage and anxiously urged the driver, "Hurry up, hurry up, don't give him a chance to ask to keep me here."

The coachman was a veteran who had been trained by the Song family for more than ten years. Upon hearing this, he whipped the horse-drawn carriage sharply and it sped away.

The speed at which Song Yang left amazed everyone present.

They didn't know that the carriage slowed down after it was out of everyone's sight.

Song Yang and Song Chenfeng, who was hiding in the carriage, stared at each other.

Song Yang: "Why are you here?"

Song Chenfeng blinked his big innocent eyes, "I heard that my sister was in danger, so I went there to support her."

Song Yang: "Then why are you hiding in the carriage and not coming out?"

Song Chenfeng: "I saw that you were not at a disadvantage at the time, so I thought that if you were in danger, I would go out and surprise you. Who knew that you would jump into the carriage and let the driver leave? I was so confused that I didn't have time to say anything. Dad, you are too cowardly. You are a prime minister of a country. You should be furious for your sister. How can you just leave like this?"

Song Yang: “???”

So the person who hid in the carriage without even showing his face and without doing anything thought he was a coward?!

Is there any justice left?

He was about to slap him, but Song Chenfeng had learned his lesson after being slapped so many times, and he successfully lowered his head to avoid the slap.

He said righteously, "I'm a coward, but you can't get angry. Stop the carriage. I have to go back to help my sister!"

Song Yang was so angry that he didn't know what to say. He had been a wise man all his life, but how could he have such a stupid son.

He blew his beard and glared, "Go, go, go, why are you going? Don't cause trouble for your sister. She knows how to deal with it and doesn't need you."

Song Chenfeng disagreed, "I'm strong, at least I can help my sister beat people up."

Song Yang snorted coldly, "You should use your endless energy somewhere else. When will you find a daughter-in-law for your father?"

Song Chenfeng looked embarrassed. "Dad, you are so vicious. You actually turned the topic to the area I am least proficient in. Other families' marriages are arranged by their parents and matchmakers, but you put all the pressure on me alone."

Song Yang snorted coldly, "Your father is giving you freedom, but you are not happy about it. Others can't even beg for such open-mindedness. Besides, you didn't find your sister yourself. You are so useless that you can't even find a daughter."

Still a child with ability.

But there is no point in disliking him, after all, he is his own son.

"Alright, alright, tomorrow I'll ask Aunt Xie to help you keep an eye out for girls of the right age."

Song Chenfeng paused, "Not really."

"No? Are you planning to be single for the rest of your life?"

Song Yang was so disappointed with his son that he glared at him angrily.

Song Chenfeng wanted to say something but stopped himself. He opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time, but in the end, nothing came out.

Song Yang and Song Chen left in a hurry, while Song Zhi and Mu Yuanzhi were still confronting each other.

However, Mu Yuanzhi's patience had obviously run out, and he said no more.

"Since you are so stubborn, I have no choice but to take strong measures to maintain national stability."

Song Zhi didn't want to say anything more. She shrugged and said, "Dog Lane is not just my Dog Lane. Your Highness can try to destroy it."

A hint of darkness flashed in Mu Yuanzhi's eyes. His father had specifically reminded him that the old monster inside was not a good person, so he did not dare to take it lightly.

Those old monsters just want to protect Gouer Lane. If he only attacks Song Zhi and the others, it should be fine.

Mu Yuanzhi thought about it and decided not to let everyone use rockets, but instead asked a team of cavalry to stand out.

At his command, the cavalry immediately rushed forward bravely, with the momentum to flatten Gouer Lane.

Mu Yuanzhi wanted to pull Song Zhi away, but when he touched the corner of her clothes, she jumped away lightly.

The expression on Mu Yuanzhi's face froze, "You know martial arts!"

However, the next second, Mu Nanqi jumped into the air with a touch of his feet, and countless stones were bounced out by his internal force. After a few "bangs", a group of cavalry fell to the ground.

Mu Yuanzhi's pupils contracted sharply, and he was shocked by this sudden situation.

After a long while, he finally found his voice and said, "You know martial arts too!"

He was in disbelief at first, then suddenly realized.

"I see. No wonder the people I sent to kill him always failed."

He muttered to himself, his tone filled with resentment.

Mu Yuanzhi stepped back a few steps away from the battlefield. At least now, he couldn't expose the fact that he knew martial arts without any scruples.

Song Zhi was also a little surprised when he saw Mu Nanqi's move, "Why did you reveal your trump card?"

As Mu Nanqi made his move, he said softly, "Now, you are my only trump card."
