“Look, the evidence is irrefutable. The facts are right in front of us. How is that wronging her?”

“Even if you’re blind and can’t see, aren’t your subordinates still with you?”

Madam Zhen gave him a look and Zhen Fantong immediately snorted.

“Ouch… It hurts so much… My leg seems to be broken… It hurts! Prince Qin, this is all Lin Wanyue’s doing. You have to help me!”

Madam Qin was instantly enlightened.

“Your Highness, may I ask you to uphold justice! Lin Wanyue disrespected me as the mistress and beat my nanny until she fainted. She even pushed me into the lake in a vain attempt to harm me. Your Highness, please understand!”

“Your Majesty, please uphold justice for us!”

Madam Qin winked. The thugs who were sprawled on the ground also knelt down and cried out their grievances.

Nangong Mo looked up in the direction of Yun Ran. His voice was low and carried a hint of a smile. “My beloved consort, did you beat up these people?”

Yun Ran said, “Yes.”

She had just been praised for being gentle… Her image was about to be destroyed…

Just as she was feeling regretful, she heard the man ask gently, “Does your hand hurt?”

Yun Ran was confused.

“The next time something like this happens, you don’t have to do it yourself.”

What? What did it mean? Did it mean what she thought it meant? It couldn’t be! Why did it feel like her brain couldn’t compute what was happening?

Yun Ran wasn’t the only one who was stunned. The others were also shocked.

It took Madam Qin a long time to find her voice. “Y-Your Highness?! You? What do you mean by that?”

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows. His handsome face was cold.

“My consort is most gentle and delicate. You actually forced her to hit someone. It can be seen what kind of infuriating thing you’ve done!”

Madam Qin’s wide eyes were filled with disbelief. Amidst her shock, there was also a hint of resentment. She felt this cripple was just relying on his military achievements to gain the hearts of the people, yet he was so arrogant, ruthless, condescending, unreasonable, and domineering! He was really detestable!

“Your Highness, according to you, does it make sense for her to hurt someone? When did the law allow for such reasoning?”

Madam Qin wanted to use the law and the emperor to pressure him, but Nangong Mo was disdainful.

His expression was lazy, but there was a terrifying sharpness to it.

“You brought this on yourselves by forcing a weak woman to hit someone. You really deserve to die.”

Madam Qin and the others were dumbfounded. They were beaten and they deserved to die?! Was there any justice in this?

And to call her a weak woman? He didn’t see how savage she was when she attacked! She was clearly barbaric, violent, and liked to fight! Who would bring a brick with them when they went out?!

Madam Qin suppressed her anger and spoke righteously.

“Your Highness, you’re being unfair.”

“I saw that she intended to murder the heir of the Marquis of Ding’an, so I reprimanded her. She bore a grudge and pushed me into the lake.”

“According to you, am I supposed to turn a blind eye and let her kill?”

“That’s right, that’s right! If Aunt hadn’t arrived in time, I would have been murdered by her!”

Nangong Mo casually glanced at Zhen Fantong’s swollen face. “So be it.”

Zhen Fantong was shocked beyond words. What did he mean, for that vicious woman to just kill him? Was he any Tom, Dick, or Harry?’

Zhen Fantong felt that his character had been greatly insulted! His anger shot to the sky. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Zhen Fantong pointed at Yun Ran and said loudly,

“She seduced me! I rejected her, so she flew into a rage out of humiliation and wanted to kill me to vent her anger!”
