Mu Nanqi raised his eyes slightly, "Who said I have to go back here to change clothes?"

"Where else can you change your clothes if you don't come back here?"

Mu Nanqi said calmly, "There are many unused bedrooms in the palace. Just find the nearest one and change it."

Now, Mu Yuanzhi was completely dumbfounded.

There is nothing wrong with this answer.

Yes, who said Mu Nanqi had to go back to his bedroom to change clothes?

It was just his preconceived notion.

His lips trembled and his eyes were filled with deep light.

"you do this delibrately."

Mu Yuanzhi said in an affirmative tone.

Mu Nanqi clearly noticed something was wrong from the beginning, but he took advantage of the situation and came out to change his clothes. Then he gave the aphrodisiac powder originally prepared for him to Mu Yunhe and Dingxiang, and then pretended to be the last one to arrive here, perfectly clearing himself of suspicion.

But he didn't understand why he failed even though he had prepared so many people just in case.

He looked around in confusion, but couldn't see the person he had arranged.

His breathing became heavier and a chill ran through his body.

With so many people, they couldn't even subdue Mu Nanqi. How strong must Mu Nanqi be?

His face turned pale and he looked at the emperor weakly.

The emperor naturally knew that today's plan had completely failed. His face turned to Mu Yunhe and said, "My princes should cultivate their moral character and set an example for the royal family. However, the Second Prince Mu Yunhe's words and deeds are outrageous and absurd. They are truly unforgivable. For the sake of the political platform, he will be immediately sent to the clan affairs office to reflect on his mistakes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yunhe's eyes flashed with disbelief and astonishment, as if he couldn't believe that his father would be so heartless just because he made such a mistake.

It was obvious that Mu Yuanzhi was caught red-handed by everyone not long ago, and it was on Song Zhi's wedding day. The emperor chose to protect Mu Yuanzhi without hesitation, didn't he?

How come it was his turn, and he was sent to the clan house so easily?!

"no, do not want."

Mu Yuanzhi knelt and moved in front of the emperor, hugged the emperor's legs tightly with both hands, his face full of fear and pleading.

His eyes were filled with panic and despair.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong! I made a big mistake in a moment of confusion. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy and forgive me this time." His voice trembled, and his tone was full of regret and despair.

His body was shaking constantly, and his head was banging against the ground like a garlic pounder, and his forehead soon became red and swollen.

He looked at the emperor eagerly, like a drowning man desperately grasping at the last straw.

The emperor didn't even look at him, but ordered his men to drag him away, acting so decisively as if Mu Yunhe was not his son.

Seeing the emperor punishing Mu Yunhe so harshly, Mu Yuanzhi did not feel the slightest bit of happiness or joy in his heart.

Because he knew that although on the surface it seemed that the emperor was treating Mu Yunhe in this way in order to give him justice.

In fact, it was not the case. The emperor did this to vent his anger on Mu Nanqi.

Mu Yunhe destroyed Mu Nanqi's bedroom.

Mu Yuanzhi tried his best to appear less resentful. He looked at Dingxiang who was still kneeling on the ground.

At this time, Dingxiang was also secretly looking at him for help.

The emperor said, "As for this woman, she is your concubine after all. What do you think of her, Sixth Brother?"

Dingxiang's eyes sparkled. Mu Yuanzhi was right. The emperor would indeed let him decide how to deal with her.

She was delighted and just when she thought she had saved her life, she heard Mu Yuanzhi's emotionless voice.

"That slut has been flirting with the royal family. Even though I like her so much, I cannot tolerate her. Please allow me to put her to rest."

The emperor narrowed his eyes meaningfully and said, "Okay."

Two words easily determined Dingxiang's life or death.

Ding Xiang was so shocked that she forgot to speak. Her eyes widened, and after a moment's reaction, she said, "That's not the case, Your Highness, you clearly..."

"Puch~"

The sound of a long sword piercing through flesh and blood was heard. Before Dingxiang could finish her words, Mu Yuanyi stabbed her heart with a sword.

Dingxiang never thought that Mu Yuanzhi would suddenly attack her until her death. She fell straight to the ground, with blood flowing all over the floor.

She used her remaining consciousness to utter a few words, "You...promise...if it's done...I...I will be your concubine...you..."

The voice was intermittent and as thin as a mosquito's, and almost no one could hear what she said.

She uttered the last note with difficulty, but she could no longer hold on and died.

No one expected that Mu Yuanzhi, who was always as gentle as jade, could be so ruthless in striking with a knife, but they did not think there was anything wrong with it.

If their lady climbed into someone else's bed and was seen by so many people, they would not only want to kill the lady, but also the onlookers.

Thinking of this, everyone quickly stepped back, fearing that they would be killed.

Song Zhi was probably the only one in the audience who felt sad about Ding Xiang's death.

Dingxiang certainly had some bad sides, but the culprit was fine. She was just a woman who could be dealt with at will, so she was killed and forced to bear all the blame.

Why.

Song Zhi's eyes darkened.

Why? She couldn't understand.

At that time, Mu Yuanzhi was forced to marry Dingxiang due to the situation. He was afraid that after carrying Dingxiang back with a pinch of nose, he would start to think carefully about how to get rid of Dingxiang.

Now, I finally took the opportunity to fulfill my wish.

This way, his work wasn't in vain.

Song Zhi looked at Mu Yuanzhi, but found that he was too immersed in the role, and his face was still sad, as if he had really strangled his beloved to death with his own hands.

After dealing with the two people at the center of the farce, the Spring Banquet had to continue.

The emperor threw the situation to Mu Yuanzhi with a dark face. Mu Yuanzhi killed people one step at a time and then invited everyone back to eat and drink. It was really inspiring.

However, it was obvious that everyone at the banquet had their own thoughts, and the meal was eaten with trepidation and tasteless.

Even Mu Yuanzhi rarely lost his mind in front of so many people.

The emperor did not appear here until the end of the Spring Banquet.

Everyone got on their carriages to go home and prepared to disperse. When Song Zhi was about to get on the carriage, a team of royal guards suddenly blocked their way.

"The Emperor has ordered that the witnesses who witnessed the Song family's illegal operation of a girls' school have been apprehended. The Song family will be immediately imprisoned and await sentencing."

Song Zhi frowned, but before he could think about it, his arm was suddenly grabbed by the Royal Guards.

She broke free from the restraints with a backhand and pushed the two royal guards in front of her away with a force of her palms.

"What do you mean by private girls' school? Stop slandering me."

The Royal Guards felt that Song Zhi had retracted his strength and was only pushing them away, with no intention of hurting anyone, otherwise they would definitely have felt bad from that palm strike just now.

Thinking of this, their attitude became much better. "We are just following orders. We hope Madam will not make things difficult for us."

Mu Nanqi stood beside Song Zhi and was about to say "get out".

Song Zhi grabbed him and said, "Okay, take me to the prison. However, my driver is planning a rebellion and I'm afraid he's a traitor. You'd better arrest him and lock him up with me."
