The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

Xie Qiang clenched his fists so tightly that some blue veins appeared on the back of his hands.

Xie Chengqian raised the corners of his lips, "Second Prince just said that he would handle the case fairly and impartially. This is indeed the time to seek justice for Miss Song."

Zhang Songlian's face turned pale and his body felt a little weak.

Xie Qiang was quite annoyed by the two men's coordinated response, but he still pressed on, "Excuse me, Miss Song, what's the deal with Master Zhang's clothes?"

Song Xiwan felt a chill in his heart.

Can't get over this clothes issue?

"Xiwan doesn't know."

Xie Qiang couldn't do anything to Xie Chengqian, but he still had confidence in her as the daughter of the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

Unexpectedly, Mu Yun came back at this time and reported: "Your Majesty, the person has been found."

Everyone looked and saw a young man with an uneasy expression and trembling body following behind Mu Yun, wearing Zhang Songlian's clothes.

Xie Chengqian asked, "Have you found out the identity of this person?"

Mu Yun nodded, "Mrs. Meng's nephew, Zhu Xiaoquan."

Even Song Xiwan was surprised. This young man was actually a relative of the Meng family?

Xie Chengqian's eyes narrowed slightly. There was obviously something wrong with this Zhu Xiaoquan. His every move was too panic-stricken, not like an ordinary person.

"Are there any scars on your body?"

Mu Yun replied: "Yes, in addition to the scars, there are also signs of drowning."

Everyone's expression changed.

So Zhang Songlian really did harm people in Zhang's house without restraint?

Zhang Songlian endured these suspicious looks and denied it urgently, "I didn't do it! It wasn't me!"

Xie Chengqian asked Zhu Xiaoquan in a deep voice, "Tell me who hit you and caused you to fall into the water?"

Zhu Xiaoquan was nervous and did not accuse anyone.

Zhang Songlian felt relieved.

This fool definitely doesn't remember what happened back then!

Song Xiwan looked at Zhu Xiaoquan and reminded him calmly, "The prince and the second prince are here to uphold justice for you today. If you act like a coward, they will only intensify their efforts next time."

Zhu Xiaoquan's body trembled, and he looked at Song Xiwan with frightened and confused eyes, and tears suddenly burst out of his eyes.

After a moment, he seemed to have made some decision and pointed at Zhang Songlian.

"Yes, it's him..."

Zhang Songlian's pale face suddenly became distorted, and he cursed loudly, "I have no grudge against you, why are you framing me like this?"

Zhu Xiaoquan seemed to be irritated by this roar and screamed while holding his head.

Song Xiwan frowned and shouted back angrily, "If you have a clear conscience, why are you so angry?"

"I understand now. You deliberately colluded with this idiot to slander me, and secretly used some seductive tricks to seduce King Xuan to help you, right?"

Zhang Songlian was so scared that he couldn't control his mouth at all.

He just wants to get away with it!

"Snapped--"

The vein on Zhang Tianyi's forehead was throbbing, and he jumped up and slapped his son!

Zhang Songlian fell directly to the ground, his lips trembling and unable to utter a word.

Song Xiwan really underestimated Zhang Songlian's intelligence. It would have been fine if he just scolded her, but he actually scolded Xie Chengqian as well.

He is a petty person.

Xie Chengqian asked with a cold expression, "Does Lord Zhang also think of me in this way?"

Zhang Tianyi was so panicked that he knelt down and begged for mercy. "Your Majesty, I dare not. I am stupid and have offended Your Majesty. Please don't blame me."

Xie Qiang lightly defended Zhang Songlian, "Why should Prince Xuan be so angry? Young Master Zhang also has his reasons to defend himself. You are so protective of Miss Song, it's inevitable that others will think so."

Xie Chengqian sneered.

If that's the case, that would be great.

"Mr. Zhang was merely guilty of verbal abuse, and I will forgive him for that. However, he assaulted Zhu Xiaoquan and wrongly accused Miss Song. This case will be tried by Lord Song."

Zhang Tianyi looked like he had aged ten years. He wanted to beg the Second Prince for help, but he knew it was useless.

Prince Xuan also asked Song Wenyi to try this case. This is going to cost his son's life!

Just as Song Xiwan was about to say something to compliment him, someone quietly grabbed her sleeve.

"Miss?"

Song Xiwan was startled by these two words. She looked down and saw a pale and thin hand, so thin that you could almost see the bones, grabbing her sleeve.

It’s Zhu Xiaoquan.

But what did he just shout?

Lady?

The others were all stunned, their eyes wandering over the two of them with curiosity.

Zhu Xiaoquan hid behind Song Xiwan like a frightened little rabbit, as if he only trusted her.

Before Song Xiwan could react, she felt a cool breeze blowing towards her, and Zhu Xiaoquan was easily pushed towards Mu Yun by Xie Chengqian.

"Take him down."

Xie Chengqian's face was grim, and the aura around him was terrifying.

However, a gleam of light flashed across Xie Qiang's eyes. He must not miss this opportunity to get back at his old self!

"So there's such a connection between Miss Song and Master Zhu. No wonder he only listened to Miss Song and pointed to Master Zhang."

Song Xiwan was speechless for a while.

Did Xie Qiang even lose his brain for revenge?

There is something clearly wrong with Zhu Xiaoquan!

Zhang Songlian ignored her and pointed at Song Xiwan, cursing, "So that's how it is! I was wondering why you treated me like this, and you actually had an affair with this idiot!"

The words are so dirty!

Song Xiwan had a grim face and regretted not hitting Zhang Songlian a few more times.

She was about to fight back, but Xie Chengqian suddenly blasted out a fierce palm wind, knocking Zhang Songlian away.

Zhang Songlian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

The atmosphere fell into dead silence.

Xie Qiang's eyes were extremely cold as he asked Xie Chengqian, "How dare you torture me without authorization?"

Xie Chengqian said coldly: "Knowing your mistakes and not correcting them is an even greater crime."

Xie Qiang laughed, exposing his lies. "Is Prince Xuan acting for the public good or for personal gain? Why should Master Zhang be subjected to such torture for merely speculating about Miss Song?"

"Miss Song's innocence should not be tarnished by anyone."

Xie Chengqian has a tall and straight figure, which makes people feel intimidated.

His attitude is very clear: he is going to protect Xi Wan, so what?

Xie Qiang gritted his teeth and warned in a sinister voice, "You will pay the price for what happened today."

If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely doubt Xie Chengqian's intentions.

Xie Chengqian looked at him with cold eyes but did not respond.

He never worried about it.

Anyone who dares to interfere with him and Xiwan will be eliminated.

Song Xiwan's heart, which had long been as stagnant as a pool of water, began to ripple. Xie Chengqian's resolute protection time and time again made it impossible for her to escape.

It seems that he did this not to win over his father.

On the other side, Zhu Xiaoquan became more and more agitated. With red eyes, he struggled to break free from Mu Yun's shackles and kept shouting at Song Xiwan.

"Wife! Let me go, I want to find my wife!"

Xie Chengqian ordered Mu Yun in a cold voice, "Take him away."

"Wait a minute."

Song Xiwan called out to Mu Yun and stared at Zhu Xiaoquan, wondering what was so strange.

Zhu Xiaoquan's eyes were unfocused and his face was a little too red. She had seen this kind of signs when she was wandering around Diancheng. It should be a hallucination.

Xie Chengqian seemed to understand Song Xiwan's meaning and changed his order, "Go get the doctor."

"Yes."

Mu Yun went to do it immediately.

Song Xiwan frowned, "It's too late. The dosage is too high. We must find an antidote as soon as possible."
