Chapter 279 There won’t be any sequelae, right?

The rich young men and women present thought that the matter had been resolved and they could escape the disaster.

Who would have thought that we would not be able to escape after all, and that Prince Nanling even wanted to take everyone to Yingtian Prefecture. How could this be tolerated!

Immediately, someone in the crowd protested, "Your Highness, are you planning to go crazy with the princess? We are not those bastards, how can you just arrest us!"

Since someone protested, the rest of the people also expressed their dissatisfaction, "Yes, if you insist on doing this, be careful or I will tell my father!"

"I think the prince doesn't want to be on good terms with our Taifu Mansion. He even dared to arrest me. Could it be that he wants to go against our family?"

…

They were shameless enough to turn the tables and try to force Mu Nanzhou to take back his decision.

Mu Nanzhou said with reason, "Who said it just now? The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Since you have made a mistake, don't talk about your own status at this time. If you make a mistake, you must be punished!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present blushed and felt slapped in the face.

However, someone still had the nerve to ask through gritted teeth, "My Lord, are you determined to do this, regardless of the consequences?"

"Let's put things in perspective!" Mu Nanzhou still calmly put his hands behind his back and looked at everyone and said, "All of you said that it was the princess who pushed someone, but there is no way to prove this. But it is a fact that you insulted the princess!"

He paused and then said, "Since the princess wants to investigate this matter to the end, I will also handle this matter first. After I finish this matter, I will go back and question the princess about what happened today. I will never let anyone suffer any injustice. Do you think there is a problem?"

"you……!"

What else can they say? Each and every one of them has been hurt internally from anger.

Prince Nanling is simply like a stubborn donkey, and even seven horses cannot pull him back. They have made their words so clear, but the prince is not afraid of offending any of them!

And they simply couldn't come up with any excuses, because the prince had already said it!

"Everyone, stop chatting. I will have someone send you to Yingtian Prefecture. You should save all your eloquence and think carefully about how to talk to the prefect after you arrive in Yingtian Prefecture."

After Mu Nanzhou finished speaking, he glanced at the people around him, and immediately a team of guards arrested everyone present and sent them away.

Although there were also angry voices from various young men and women, Mu Nanzhou still did not take back his decision.

Instead, after everyone was taken away, he slowly turned his head and looked at Ashinaye, "You have some words to say about what happened just now, but now I have made a decision. I just don't know if you have anything else to say, or...if you have any opinions!"

Although he was asking the other person, his expression was calm and serious. It didn't look like he was asking for the other person's opinion at all, but rather like he was putting pressure on him.

Everyone was arrested just now except him, and it was because of his special identity that he was the only one left behind.

Ashinaye suddenly felt a little aggrieved about what happened today, but when he thought about the fact that King Nanling had just promised him to bring Li Qiuer back to the palace...

He didn't have any other opinions on this matter. Otherwise, if the other party changed his mind at the last minute, it would be a loss. After all, he still needed Li Qiu'er to be taken back by King Nanling and lurk beside him to secretly investigate something.

This matter went so smoothly that King Nanling agreed to take Li Qiuer back. His goal had been achieved, so he naturally wouldn't say anything.

"I have no opinion on this matter. Everything is up to the prince. Those people were really ruthless just now. It's time to teach them a lesson."

He rarely said some nice words, just to reassure Mu Nanzhou and prevent him from getting suspicious.

He even puffed out his chest and warned him righteously, "My Lord, there is one thing I have to remind you of. Since Li Qiu'er was injured by the eldest princess, you are responsible. But she needs to go back and recuperate well, and you must treat her well."

"Treat her well? How could I bully a woman like her?" Mu Nanzhou silenced the other party with just one sentence.

Ashinaye felt that his face was greatly threatened, and even when he saw the mocking smile slowly rising on the corners of the eldest princess' mouth, he was so angry that veins bulged.

But in order to allow Prince Nanling to successfully bring Li Qiuer back home, he endured it!

"Okay, in that case then you guys go back. I'm leaving too." After saying this, he turned around and left angrily, fearing that he would not be able to resist doing something if he stayed any longer.

Mu Nanzhou and Xu Yanyi took Li Qiuer on the palace's carriage back home.

But the journey was not peaceful!

"Your Highness, my hand hurts so much. Can you help me see if there will be any sequelae?" Li Qiu'er was unwilling to give up and wanted to get closer to Mu Nanzhou, so she moved towards him while speaking.

However, Mu Nanzhou ignored her, and Li Qiuer chose to continue chatting with him, wanting to get closer to him.

But who knew that Mu Nanzhou didn't give her any face at all, and just waved his sleeves and walked away from her.

The smile on his face froze in an instant, it was so embarrassing!

Mu Nanzhou didn't care. Instead, he turned around and started talking and laughing with Xu Yanyi in front of her, looking very comfortable.

"You weren't scared just now, were you? Next time if someone bullies you, you must tell me immediately. I will never let anyone bully you."

"Who am I? I am the eldest princess. How could I be bullied by others? Don't worry, it's okay."

"As soon as we get home, I'll have someone make you some nourishing soup to help you get rid of the stress."

…

The two of them were chatting together as if no one was around, looking very affectionate. Li Qiuer, who was watching from the side, was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

I thought to myself: You guys treated me like air in the face of such a glaring scene, I will let you guys go free for a while, but when I catch you, I will make sure you pay!

However, even though she was angry, Li Qiuer was still somewhat confused and found it extremely strange.

He increasingly felt that he couldn't understand what was going on with King Nanling.

He was not like this before, and he would never treat her like this. Why did he suddenly become like this and speak coldly to her? This is not like him at all!

What on earth is so strange that makes him feel so uneasy? It's strange...

She had been thinking about this problem all the way, but without any evidence to support her, she just couldn't figure it out. She could only swallow her anger for the time being and wait until she arrived at the Princess's Mansion to find out the truth!
