Wang Wanning's anger subsided after seeing this. She was stunned for a long moment before she said, "Your Highness?"

Mo Cerong's eyes revealed a hint of majesty, and he said coldly: "What are you doing? Wang Wanning."

"This is a martial arts arena, not a place for you to act recklessly."

After saying that, he waved his hand and threw Wang Wanning out.

The man was so strong that Wang Wanning was caught off guard and fell backwards.

Seeing this, Su Ruoxi immediately stepped forward to support her, thus preventing Wang Wanning from falling miserably.

She was stunned. She didn't expect Mo Cerong to be angry? Or was he angry because Wang Wanning wanted to hit Su Yanhua?

She recalled that when she was injured by Su Yanhua, although Mo Cerong was also angry, he was more helpless. However, the prince opposite her frowned, full of oppression, and the calmness in his eyes suddenly awakened and turned cold.

She felt inexplicably panicked, but she couldn't figure out why.

After Wang Wanning stood up, she realized that there were so many people around her. They looked at her with indifference, disdain, and even mockery as if they were watching a joke. These looks made her heart numb, like a spider web wrapped tightly around her heart, making it impossible for her to breathe.

Only then did she realize that she had just been angered by Su Yanhua and that she had fallen into Su Yanhua's trap!

She quickly explained: "Your Majesty, it's not my fault. Su Yanhua deliberately provoked me. She did it on purpose."

Mo Cerong said, "I saw it clearly from the side, Wang Wanning, I am not blind."

Wang Wanning didn't understand. She thought anyone could stand up for Su Yanhua, but didn't Mo Cerong like Su Ruoxi? How could he possibly stop her for Su Yanhua, a bitch?

At this moment, Wang Wanning was completely controlled by her emotions and had lost her rationality. Naturally, she could not understand why Mo Cerong would intervene in this matter.

Even though Mo Cerong had no interest in Su Yanhua, as a judge of the martial arts test, he had to intervene to solve the problem.

All events that occurred during the martial arts test were closely related to him. His duties were mainly to deal with the confrontations between martial arts masters, rather than disputes between women.

What's more, as a noblewoman of Lingcheng, Wang Wanning's words and actions represent not only herself, but also Lingcheng and even the entire Yunqin. Openly causing a scene in the martial arts arena is simply outrageous!

Su Ruoxi naturally understood that this situation was not good for them. She gently pulled Wang Wanning and said, "Forget it, Wanning."

Wang Wanning didn't expect Prince Mo to suppress her, and Su Ruoxi also asked her to let it go. She said angrily in her heart: "How can I let it go?"

After saying that, she pulled Su Ruoxi's hand away, looked at Mo Cerong, and began to speak without thinking: "Am I wrong? If Su Yanhua really doesn't like you, Your Highness, why doesn't she agree to cancel the engagement? On the one hand, she ignores you, and on the other hand, she still won't let you go. Isn't Su Yanhua a two-faced bitch?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yanhua flashed, moving as swiftly as a ghost, a sharp flying knife appearing in her hand. With a flick of her wrist, the knife flew towards Wang Wanning like lightning. The knife flashed with a cold light and moved at such a speed that it seemed to be able to penetrate everything.

Wang Wanning didn't expect that it was so easy to anger Su Yanhua. This joy almost covered up her fear. She could only stand there, watching the sharp blade hit her face, her feet felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move.

Everyone looked at this scene in shock. Some people couldn't bear it and closed their eyes, sighing in their hearts: What a pity for this face.

The moment the flying knife was about to touch Wang Wanning's face, it was grasped by a big hand. The flying knife stopped spinning, and all its sharpness pierced the skin of the big hand and began to seep into the blood.

Su Ruoxi's face changed and she was shocked: "Your Majesty!"

She stepped forward to check Mo Cerong's palm. Bright red blood fell to the ground along with the flying knife. She took out her handkerchief to bandage him, but before she was done, Mo Cerong gently pushed her away.

"nothing."

Su Ruoxi had heard Mo Cerong's tender words to her, and there had never been a day that made her feel so uncomfortable as now. His tone was still soothing, but he rejected her. She was not someone who would stand with him, and her relationship with him could not be revealed to the world.

She also remembered that when Xu was pregnant with her, only with the consent of the legal wife could Xu have a legitimate status and a place to stay in the Su Mansion.

Now, she was not even qualified to bandage him. She sneered at herself, gently took away the handkerchief, and stood aside, as if the worried woman just now was not her.

Wang Wanning was terrified. She hadn't expected Su Yanhua to be so cruel. A trace of fear welled up in her heart. She quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Your Highness, did you see that? Su Yanhua wants to kill me. You have to stand up for me!"

"I am a noble lady from Lingcheng after all. How can I let Su Yanhua bully me at will? Could it be that Su Yanhua has the final say over Yun Qin?"

Su Yanhua snorted coldly and approached Wang Wanning step by step. "Wang Wanning, you don't have to flatter me. Prime Minister Wang was demoted to a Hanlin scholar for smuggling salt some time ago. Everyone knows that Prime Minister Wang betrayed the emperor and did such a thing to deceive the monarch. He is truly despised by the world."

"Why, your father doesn't even dare to act recklessly now, so why are you showing off here? Do you think your family isn't famous enough, so you've come to the Shiwufeng Club to show off your power? I'm warning you, Wang Wanning. In the past, I would have tolerated you for Prime Minister Wang's sake, but you're just the daughter of a mere Hanlin scholar. Even if I kill you right now, do you think the Emperor will let me die as a sacrifice?"

Su Yanhua said this close to Wang Wanning's ear, and Su Ruoxi only saw Wang Wanning's face change drastically.

Wang Wanning stared at her with eyes full of hatred. Su Yanhua's beautiful face made her feel so hateful at this moment.

Of course not. Not to mention that everyone saw that it was Wang Wanning who provoked first, and now Su Bing is fighting for Yun Qin, so naturally he dare not neglect Su Bing's family.

So even if Wang Wanning died here, the emperor would not execute Su Yanhua. This is why Su Yanhua no longer tolerated Wang Wanning.

Mo Cerong bandaged the wound and knew that Wang Wanning would not dare to make trouble at this time, but he still had to calm down what had happened.

He looked deeply at Su Yanhua. In her eyes, there was nothing but indifference, and no other emotion could be seen.

When he just arrived, he heard Wang Wanning questioning Su Yanhua. Su Yanhua fought back on everything except the cancellation of the engagement. Did she really not care?

His heart seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, making him feel uncomfortable. He calmed down and stopped looking at her.

Those eyes looked at the crowd around them, revealing majesty and a hint of oppression.

"Everyone! Everything that happened today was due to my inadequate supervision. Now, I want to clarify two things for everyone. First, I have not broken off my engagement with Su Yanhua, so those false rumors spread by Wang Wanning are nonsense. Second, there is nothing between me and Su Ruoxi. She did not use any means to seduce me. I hope you can believe what I say and stop spreading those malicious rumors. At the same time, please respect Su Ruoxi's reputation and do not hurt her because of some unfounded speculation."
