Chapter 316: Not Worthy of Being a Man
"It was the Third Prince... It was the Third Prince who did it. Spare me, Princess, spare me."
One of them was so scared that he wet his pants and quickly pointed at Zhao Yuchen and shouted.
If one person rebels, there will naturally be a second one.
Then someone started crying, "Yes, yes, it's the Third Prince. We didn't touch Miss Zhou. Please spare my life."
Zhao Yuchen was furious: "You bunch of slave dogs! How dare you betray me! I will kill you!"
Gu Huan's bloodshot eyes slowly looked at Zhao Yuchen who was drawing his sword in frustration.
Unfortunately, before he could draw his sword, Akabane used a palm knife to knock his sword away.
Zhao Yuchen panicked, his eyes darting around, and seeing that everyone was staring at him angrily, he thought something was wrong.
He tried to relax and laugh, but his laughter became stiff and forced.
He forced himself to speak dryly, "What kind of insult is that? You are making things too complicated. I am just doing good things."
Gu Huan walked towards him step by step, scaring him so much that he stepped back repeatedly.
"Princess Mu, don't be stupid. I am a prince. If you dare to touch me, how can my father let you go?"
Gu Huan said coldly: "The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people! Moreover, you intend to provoke a war between the Mu family army and the southern border countries by humiliating Sister Zhilan. You are committing treason! You deserve the death penalty and everyone can kill you!"
Zhao Yuchen broke out in a cold sweat after hearing what she said.
He continued to pretend to be calm: "Princess Yong misunderstood me. I heard that her husband is inhumane. Am I not doing a good deed? If she gets pregnant, my royal bloodline will be given to Zhou Chunyu as a son. This is a great good deed done by me. Why are you still blaming me..."
"Zhao Yuchen!"
Gu Huan roared angrily.
There are such vicious people in the world.
The people in the Mu family army couldn't stand it anymore and they all called him a beast.
Zhao Yuchen was frightened by the deafening shouting and cursing. His face turned pale and he shouted hurriedly: "I am the prince, I am the prince, dare you to touch me!"
Gu Huan raised the dagger: "Since you don't want to be a human being, then be a eunuch!"
Mu Junyan suddenly drew his sword and rushed forward before her.
Chiyu was quick-witted and quick-handed. He quickly twisted Zhao Yuchen's arm, forcing him to be unable to move. He watched helplessly as Mu Junyan's cold sword stabbed towards his crotch like the wind.
Mu Junyan's tall body blocked Gu Huan's sight, and she heard Zhao Yuchen scream.
Just as she was about to look, Mu Junyan turned around and hugged her.
He whispered, "You shouldn't dirty your hands with a beast like that. He doesn't deserve to be a man."
Gu Huan was filled with grief and anger and she threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.
Wang Heng and the Third Prince were all stunned. They all opened their mouths wide and were unable to make a sound for a moment.
Akabane and the others felt relieved, and they didn't feel at all that they couldn't touch him just because he was a prince.
Some of them also thought that if their lord was not willing to deal with him face to face, they would definitely kill the beast in secret!
After Gu Huan cried bitterly, the depression in her heart dissipated a little and she wiped away her tears.
"I'm going to go see Sister Zhilan."
Mu Junyan supported her: "I'll go with you."
Gu Huan shook her head: "I'll go by myself."
She still has some knot in her heart that has not been untied.
He glanced at the frightened men and said coldly, "They are not worthy of being men."
Mu Junyan nodded without thinking: "Yes."
He waved his hand at Akabane: "Execute."
Akabane and the others' eyes suddenly lit up.
Wang Heng's face turned pale: "You can't do this to me! We Langya Wang Clan will not let you go!"
Gu Huan passed by him and kicked him hard: "If you, the Wang Clan of Langya, knew that you had done such a beastly thing, I'm afraid they would want to shave you. You have brought shame to them! Don't worry, I will have them send you back to the Wang Clan of Langya and explain your deeds clearly."
Wang Heng was both scared and angry, and was about to say something when Chiyu grabbed the collar and dragged away.
Gu Huan didn't want to watch and walked quickly towards the inner courtyard.
After cleaning the blood off his body and hands and changing into clean clothes, when he saw Zhou Zhilan again, Zhou Chunyu was feeding her medicine.
Gu Huan stepped forward, smiled, and told her everything calmly.
Zhou Zhilan widened her eyes and made the number three with her hand.
Gu Huan nodded: "Yes, he was the first one to have his offspring cut off."
Zhou Zhilan was stunned for a moment.
Zhou Chunyu's eyes were filled with anger: "I want to cut him into pieces!"
Gu Huan said calmly, "He is a prince, so he cannot die in Juzhou. When he is escorted back to Bianjing, he might encounter some bandits."
Zhou Chunyu's eyes lit up.
But Zhou Zhilan grabbed his sleeve.
Gu Huan knew what she was worried about. She also knew that it was the Third Prince who had humiliated her, so she didn't want them to avenge her.
She squatted down, took Zhou Zhilan's hand, held it in her palm, looked at her, but spoke to Zhou Chunyu.
"Sister Zhilan, don't worry. We in the Mu family army will not let any of them go. Wang Heng has also been castrated. They are not worthy of being men. As for what punishment they will receive in the end, it will naturally be left to the emperor to decide. But they will not suffer less than what they deserve. You know how dangerous the road back to Bianjing is. It is normal to break arms and legs when encountering some bandits that the imperial court cannot destroy."
Zhou Zhilan looked at her steadily for a long time, then slowly smiled.
Gu Huan also smiled and reached out to help her tidy up her hair.
"Sister, no matter what happened, it's over. Let's just be happy from now on, okay? I really need you."
Gu Huan said this with a smile, tears streaming down her face.
Zhou Zhilan also smiled with red eyes, and tried hard to shake Gu Huan's hand.
Gu Huan felt that the former sister Zhilan had returned.
Shen Li added sedative herbs to Zhou Zhilan's medicine, and she fell into a deep sleep soon after drinking it.
Gu Huan and Zhou Chunyu walked out of the room. Zhou Chunyu bowed respectfully to Gu Huan and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, Princess. If it weren't for you, Zhilan wouldn't have survived."
Gu Huan looked at him and her face suddenly turned cold.
"I want to ask you something."
Zhou Chunyu quickly said, "Princess, please ask."
"Did you and Mu Junyan know in advance that Wang Heng and his gang were up to something?"
Zhou Chunyu was stunned for a moment, then he understood what she meant and hurriedly explained: "We know that Wang Heng has not given up his evil intentions and has been active in southern Xinjiang. We also know that he has been lobbying Duan Wang at the Great Ideal, and he has been attacking us. But it was indeed our negligence that Zhilan got into trouble."
really!
Gu Huan felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She stared at Zhou Chunyu: "Is it just negligence? Didn't you leave a loophole on purpose to let them cause trouble?"
Zhou Chunyu was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what Gu Huan meant and his face turned pale.
"We thought they might take action in the near future because the small countries were quietly mobilizing their forces, but we didn't expect them to attack Zhilan."
Gu Huan's anger rose up, and she lowered her voice with anger: "So, it was you who deliberately let down your guard and let them take advantage of the opportunity! Therefore, you are also responsible for Sister Zhilan's murder!"
Zhou Chunyu was so anxious that he didn't know how to explain. Seeing Gu Huan turn around and walk towards the main courtyard angrily, he hurried to follow.
"Princess, this matter has nothing to do with the Lord. I thought the wedding might be an opportunity, so I ordered the guards of the Yongguo Mansion to be more relaxed. But I didn't expect them to go to the Zhou Mansion to kidnap people. The guards of the Zhou Mansion were short-handed, and someone was bribed, so they succeeded."
Gu Huan became even angrier when she heard this, and slapped him hard in the face.
"Zhou Chunyu, are you still a human being? Sister Zhilan has suffered so much injustice because of you, but you keep hurting her! Are these justifications? Sister Zhilan has been looking forward to the wedding with you for many years, so you are just a bait?"
Zhou Chunyu knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, it's my fault. It's all my fault. It has nothing to do with the Lord. It really has nothing to do with the Lord."
Gu Huan angrily said, "Whether it has anything to do with him or not is my business! From now on, if you dare to make Sister Zhilan shed another tear, I will not let you off easily!"
