Ye Qianning smiled slightly when he heard this, and said in a cool voice: "I'm sorry, I'm a casual healer. I just wanted to treat you out of kindness, but I didn't expect to be scolded. Now I feel like I'm meddling in other people's business and don't want to treat you anymore."
"Forehead……"
Xu Chang didn't expect to hear such words and was speechless.
"Dad... Dad, don't beg her, she... she..."
Xu Hongwen's wrist hurt so much that he wanted to curse, but Sang Zhi took a step forward and he instantly lost his temper.
Xu Chang was also furious. His son's hand had been cut off by the Eighth Prince, yet a mere unknown woman was so arrogant. He stood up and said, "Eighth Prince, even if my son assassinated Marquis Xiang Ming's daughter, it has nothing to do with you. You brought people to my house and cut off my son's hand. Isn't this too much?"
"Ye Qianning saved my life, but the Earl's Mansion sent people to assassinate him. Do you also think that the royal family is full of ungrateful, sinister and narrow-minded villains?" Sang Zhi said coldly.
Xu Chang's courage, which had just been aroused, instantly faded away: "The Earl's Mansion has absolutely no such intention."
"Publicly speaking, the Earl's Mansion assassinating the royal benefactor is putting the royal family in an unkind and unjust situation. Privately speaking, Ye Qianning saved my life. Anyone who dares to touch her will be made to suffer a fate worse than death." Sang Zhi glanced at the Xu family father and son, his eyes fell on Sang Shu, and he said coldly: "In my heart, assassinating her is more serious than assassinating me."
Sang Shu's attention was originally on Ye Qianning. Upon hearing this, she turned her head and met his scarlet eyes. Her heart stagnated, and she gasped heavily. She raised her chin with a hint of dissatisfaction and said nothing.
Xu Chang hadn't expected this to happen, and was at a loss for words. "Since the Eighth Prince is like this, I...I will...I will file a complaint with the Emperor."
Xu Hongwen was still breathing, covering his left hand with his right hand, and stood up chokingly: "Yes... We want to see the emperor..."
Sang Zhi smiled even more when he heard this: "Even if you want to see the emperor, you have to wait for me to do something."
Xu Chang was stunned, as if he didn't understand what was meant, but the next second, he was horrified. The hidden guards who suddenly appeared arrested Xu Hongwen and Sang Shu.
"Sang Zhi, if you dare to touch me, let go..."
Xu Hongwen twisted his body and was about to yell angrily, but when he heard Sang Shu's voice, he turned around and said anxiously, "Shu'er, Eighth Prince, if you have anything to say, come to me. Let Shu'er go."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, what are you going to do?" Xu Chang was shocked.
"This prince has said that whoever dares to touch her will be made to suffer a fate worse than death." Sang Zhi said sternly.
Sang Shu was horrified: "Sang Zhi, if you dare to touch this princess, my father will not let you go."
"Just a princess." Sang Zhi sneered.
"Let her go, let her go." Xu Hongwen struggled frantically.
Xu Chang was at a loss: "I want the emperor, I want to file a complaint with him, I want to file a complaint with him."
"The Imperial Edict..."
A loud shout was heard, and Li Quande hurried over from one end of the corridor, holding the imperial edict in both hands.
Sang Zhi frowned slightly and let out a low groan from his chest.
Ye Qianning looked at Eunuch Li. After not seeing him for many years, Eunuch Li was still as cunning and treacherous as he was back then. He had arrived just when Madam Xu fainted.
He had been hiding in the corner observing the situation, and his appearance on the scene just broke the situation.
Eunuch Li is a thoughtful, versatile and talented person. Speaking of which, I still owe him some favors for some things that happened in the past.
Xu Chang heard the imperial edict as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Eunuch Li, Eunuch Li..."
