My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Faced with Teng Qin's three questions, Mu Zheng really wanted to applaud him. On the surface, he seemed to be talking about him, but in reality, he was alluding to the young lady of the Qi family. Although he didn't know what the entanglement between Teng Qin and Qi Yuxiu was, since he was involved, he had to make sure you didn't get what you wanted.

"Haha, I was wondering why Master Teng wouldn't let go of me? With so many people walking around, your servant chose me? So, you wanted to implicate Miss Qi through me. What's the matter? Do you have a grudge against her?"

Hearing Mu Zheng's sarcasm, Teng Qin remained calm. "Nonsense! I've never seen you, and neither have my servants. I certainly didn't think you'd implicate Miss Qi."

"Really?" Mu Zheng sneered, then turned to Jiang Dabai and asked, "Then may I ask, how did you come to check my invitation? Did I have an argument with someone, or did you catch me stealing something?"

Uh……

Everyone looked at Jiang Dabai. Yes, there were hundreds of people in the field. Why did you, a slave, target Mu Zheng?

This question is crucial. Jiang Dabai can't possibly say that he wanted to vent his anger for his brother. This would ruin Teng Qin's reputation and say that he had a cunning servant and was taking revenge on his own, and he was just lucky to have found someone without an invitation.

"I heard it from my cousin. He saw you at the border yesterday and knew that you were a newcomer to the island." Jiang Dabai said.

"Oh? There were so many people landing on the island yesterday. Not to mention yesterday, there were people landing on the island today as well. Why didn't you go and interrogate them?" Mu Zheng asked again.

"This..." Jiang Dabai sweatdropped. "Because you don't know me."

"Hmph, even if I believe your lies. Then let me ask you again, as a servant, even if you sense something is amiss, shouldn't you report it to your superiors? Even if you don't, shouldn't you at least inform your master? Why? Are you relying on your master's status to treat this Elephant Island as part of the Teng family's territory? Even servants can freely question visitors, so do you still have eyes for the current lord? And your master hasn't even won the election for leader yet? If he really takes that position, wouldn't you be able to have your way? The entire Black Clan will become a one-man show for the Teng family."

Wow……

Mu Zheng's words made the crowd change their expressions.

Everyone is fawning over you, Teng Qin, because you have the potential to become a lord. But if becoming a lord harms everyone's interests, how can you possibly become a lord?

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Teng Qin's face flushed with anger. He glared at Jiang Dabai and explained, "Mu Zheng, my servant informed me before coming to question you. So he wasn't questioning you on behalf of a servant, but on behalf of me, Teng Qin, and the Teng family!"

After this explanation, everyone's expressions immediately improved a lot.

A servant's private decisions could be interpreted as a sign of lax discipline or a flawed character. However, if they acted at their master's behest, that was a different story. Teng Qin was cautious and strategic. Furthermore, Teng Qin and the Teng family had every right to question any suspect.

"Oh?" A hint of smile appeared in Mu Zheng's eyes. "So, Master Teng already knew about me from your servants?"

"Of course!" Teng Qin said without hesitation.

"Then why were you pretending not to know that I had contact with Miss Qi?" Mu Zheng asked.

"Huh?" Teng Qin was so angry that his hands were shaking. It turned out that this was Mu Zheng's purpose in going around in circles.

"Since you knew that Miss Qi and I had met once, you attacked me on the spot before the matter was fully investigated. This is not rigorous."

"Even though you suspected Miss Qi of bringing me into the venue without permission, you didn't confront her. Instead, you picked a fight with me. You wanted to make a big deal out of it and make everyone think Miss Qi was at fault. This is dishonest."

"If I am truly a spy, and if Miss Qi is truly at fault, then this is a stain on the Black Clan and a family affair within the clan. Instead of protecting the clan's reputation, you've seized upon this opportunity to cause a scene. You don't care at all whether others laugh at the Black Clan or whether you've tarnished its reputation. This is disloyalty."

Mu Zheng took a step closer to Teng Qin. "So, can I understand this as, you knew this had nothing to do with Miss Qi, but you deliberately labeled me a spy just to drag her down with you?"

boom……

As Mu Zheng finished speaking, the entire Jockey Club erupted in an uproar. Instantly, everyone's gaze towards Teng Qin changed, and even many of Qi Yuxiu's supporters began to denounce him.

Teng Qin never expected that Mu Zheng could turn the situation around with just a few words. What made him even more frustrated was that what he said was not entirely true, but it was infinitely close to the truth.

He couldn't even refute it.

Seeing that Teng Qin was stumped by his question, Mu Zheng wanted to slip away.

Bluffing people is only temporary, but not having an invitation is permanent.

"Let's go!" Teng Qin called Gong Wen and others.

"Stop!" Teng Qin's expression turned cold. This man had trapped himself and wanted to escape, but it was not that easy. "You are not allowed to leave until you explain clearly how you got into this place!"

Since you have already lost face, you might as well lose it more thoroughly.

He didn't get what he wanted, so Qi Yuxiu shouldn't have an easy time either.

"Haha, are you going to make you satisfied until I tell you that it was Miss Qi who brought me into the venue?" Mu Zheng looked at Teng Qin coldly. He had wanted to make friends with him, but now it seemed that this guy was not worth it.

"Who else could it be besides her?" Teng Qin said with disdain, "The more you dare not say her name, the more it proves that there is something fishy going on between you two. Little thief, what do you want to do with this treasure appraisal conference? What secret do you have?"

This is just pouring sewage.

"Someone come here! Arrest him and send him to the clan for trial. I believe we can uncover the conspiracy behind him." Teng Qin roared.

"Fuck you!" Gong Wen would have exploded long ago if he wasn't worried about implicating Hu Shu'er. Seeing Teng Qin calling him a thief and plotting schemes, he couldn't stand it any longer. "How did Miss Renqi bother you? Why are you trying so hard to discredit her? Okay, I won't pretend anymore. We did have someone help us get into the venue."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Zheng Chao and Liu Yu were anxious. "Has this little mosquito gone mad? This will kill Miss Shu'er." Mu Zheng, on the other hand, remained calm.

"Haha!" Teng Qin laughed. "You finally admitted it. I knew someone was behind this."

Ah!

The little mosquito curled his lips, then pointed at Jiang Dabai and said, "He is the one who helped me!"

what?

Teng Qin's laughter stopped abruptly. He looked at Gong Wen with a ferocious expression: "What did you say?"

"What did I say?" Gong Wen glanced at Teng Qin sarcastically. "I said the person who brought us in was your servant. He told us that all we had to do was pretend to be caught by him and then firmly believe that Miss Qi was behind it."

Every word Gong Wen spoke was powerful and forceful. If Mu Zheng and others didn't know the truth, they would have believed it.

"court death!"

Jiang Dabai rushed towards Gong Wen, but Gong Wen didn't tolerate him and punched him in the mouth.

boom!

Jiang Dabai felt that several of his teeth were loose.

The scene suddenly became quiet. No one expected that Mu Zheng and the others would dare to take action.

Although he was beating a servant, it still depends on whose servant he is.

"presumptuous!"

Teng Qin no longer wanted to maintain his image as a respectable young man. A sinister smile appeared on his lips and his eyes flashed with fire.

Everyone knows that the most beautiful woman on Elephant Island is angry!
