Wang Simeng turned her head, grabbed Qin Mingyue's wrist, and with some force, snatched the whip from Qin Mingyue's hand, then lashed Qin Mingyue with the whip.

Snap!

"Ah!!! You bitch, how dare you hit me! I am the Third Princess of Qin!" Qin Mingyue glared fiercely at Wang Simeng.

Wang Simeng sneered.

*Crack!* Qin Mingyue was lashed again with the whip.

"You slut, so you are a slut! Oh right, how could I forget about you? You're no better than me," Wang Simeng mocked.

He then mentally instructed Yun Tian, ​​disregarding any excuses Qin Jinyan might come up with, to depose the Third Princess of Qin as well. The three siblings could then share the burden, ensuring none were left behind.

Qin Mingyue continued to curse Wang Simeng, but her words were completely ineffective. Wang Simeng paid no attention to Qin Mingyue's words; on the contrary, the more Qin Mingyue cursed, the harder Wang Simeng slapped her, occasionally adding a few more blows.

*Smack!*

Qin Yuan and Qin Zhang were even more enraged when they saw their sister being beaten by Wang Simeng. Their Qin state was the most powerful nation. Back in Qin, the three of them were used to being proud; when had they ever suffered such humiliation?

Qin Mingyue was beaten black and blue, and blood was spilling from the corner of her mouth. She saw Wang Simeng's strength and, although she knew she couldn't beat her, she still stared at Wang Simeng with a sinister look in her eyes.

"You vile woman, how could the Regent possibly be interested in a woman with such a vicious mind? He must have never seen you like this before, otherwise he would never like you."

Wang Simeng understood immediately. She must be eyeing her boyfriend now. She snorted coldly and stepped forward.

Slap! Slap! Two more slaps.

"Alright, I know you're a jerk! You keep telling me this. Looks like you have a bad memory! And don't worry! He likes me just the way I am."

Wang Simeng's words left Qin Mingyue speechless with anger. She could only stare at Wang Simeng with resentful eyes, as if she wanted to kill her with her gaze.

Then something else came to mind.

"You wretch, you dare to hit us! The Qin Kingdom will not let you or the Qi Cang Kingdom get away with this. You just wait."

When Wang Simeng saw Qin Mingyue's gaze, she simply snorted coldly.

Slap! Slap! Two more slaps!

"Don't blame me for being rude to you; it's your two good brothers who brought this upon themselves. If they hadn't provoked me, I wouldn't have bothered with you at all."

"Meng'er!" Mo Beichen's voice suddenly came from behind.

Upon hearing the sound, Wang Simeng immediately turned around.

"Achen, why are you here? I will take responsibility for what I did. The three of them are just ordinary people now. Without status and position, they are nothing. I will go to the palace in a while to explain the situation to the Emperor."

"Meng'er, I didn't come here to ask these questions. I heard that you hadn't returned to the manor, and when I learned that you had come here, I knew something had happened, so I rushed over. What have they done?"

"It's nothing, they just ambushed me on my way home, trying to catch me," Wang Simeng said with a shrug, seemingly unconcerned.

Wang Simeng thought it was a small matter, but it completely ignited Mo Beichen's anger.

Mo Beichen struck Qin Yuan, Qin Zhang, and Qin Mingyue with a palm strike.

BOOM!!!

Several people were instantly sent flying, crashing heavily against the wall.

Qin Yuan, Qin Zhang, and Qin Mingyue all coughed up blood and nearly fainted. They stared at Mo Beichen and Wang Simeng with disbelief and terror in their eyes.

They've gone mad! They've all gone mad! They even dare to attack the Qin royal family! Is Qi Cang really going to war? If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come to Qi Cang.

The three of them never believed Wang Simeng's claims that they had been deposed and that Qin would have a new emperor. They simply thought Wang Simeng was lying to them or that she had gone mad.

Wang Simeng breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Qin Yuan and the other two were still alive. Letting them die so easily would be too lenient.

"Arrest those three and take them to the Prince's dungeon," Mo Beichen ordered calmly.

Upon hearing this, the three of them cursed even more fiercely.

"You vile women, the Qin state will not let you get away with this."

"You bunch of lunatics, you're all insane!"

"Mo Beichen, Wang Simeng, once we return to Qin, it will be your death day."

"If they curse again, I'll cut out their tongues." Mo Beichen looked at Qin Yuan and the other two with icy eyes.

The three were stunned by the chilling light in Mo Beichen's eyes. That intense killing intent terrified them; they were afraid their tongues would really be cut out. They quickly shut their mouths.

After Qin Yuan and the other two were taken away, Mo Beichen and Wang Simeng also went to the palace.

As Mo Beichen arrived at the Hall of Diligent Governance, he could hear ministers denouncing him and Wang Simeng from afar.

"Your Majesty, the Regent and that Miss Wang are far too arrogant. Today they directly attacked the Crown Prince of Qin, the Second Prince of Qin, and the Third Princess of Qin. This is a blatant provocation against Qin. I beg Your Majesty to issue an edict to severely punish them, otherwise, if Qin sends troops, our Qi Cang Kingdom will also be unable to maintain its stability."

Some ministers expressed their support and asked the emperor to issue an edict to deal with the regent and Miss Wang.

“Yes! Your Majesty, although Miss Wang is said to have come down from her sect to gain experience, she is still a commoner. Such arrogant behavior cannot be tolerated! I beg Your Majesty to punish her and confiscate all her shops for the national treasury…”

“Your Majesty, this old minister believes that the Regent and Miss Wang are not the kind of people who do not know what is important. Since the Regent and Miss Wang dared to do this, there must be a reason, and they are not afraid of Qin’s retaliation. Moreover, there is no use in saying anything now. Let’s wait for His Highness the Regent and Miss Wang to explain. Perhaps there is a misunderstanding.”

"Your Majesty, that's what I think too."

The ministers were discussing it amongst themselves.

Emperor Yongshun was getting a headache from all the arguing from his ministers.

After listening to Da Chen's words, Mo Beichen and Wang Simeng exchanged a glance, then had someone announce their arrival before entering the main hall.
