"Severely punish Yuan Yintang—"
"Severely punish Yuan Yintang and Concubine Yuan. We cannot let the young lady from the General's Mansion die in vain—"
"Collaboration with the enemy and treason must never be forgiven and must be severely punished."
Someone in the crowd started the movement, but it instantly ignited everyone's anger, and everyone raised their voices to demand severe punishment for the murderer.
The sound coming from the concubines' ears made them cry even harder. Such a lovely child was silent in the blink of an eye. They wished they could tear out the murderer's tendons and skin him alive.
Sang Zhi stood at the front holding a petition in his hand, the words in black on white paper were extremely eye-catching.
Lord Song was carried back and was overwhelmed by the angry voices. The emperor knew everything, but he didn't seem to have the intention to punish Concubine Yuan.
The people's voices are very loud, and if we do not deal with them, it will not be enough to appease their anger. Even if we beat him to death, it will not be enough to suppress the current situation.
"Sir, you are back. What did the emperor say?" The lawyer stepped forward.
"Go and invite the Eighth Prince and everyone else from the General's Mansion into the government office. The others will wait for the Emperor's message." Lord Song was exhausted. He was so dizzy from the big hole in his head from the teapot that he didn't even dare to faint.
"Yes, yes." The master nodded, turned around and trotted towards Sang Zhi.
"Your Highness, it's already so late. Please go to the yamen and wait for the result."
"She is a traitor to the enemy, plotting to murder the prince, and is the woman of a minister. The evidence is irrefutable. If she is not punished in one day, I will stay here for one day. If she is not punished in two days, I will stay here for two days. I want to see if the laws of Beili are just for show." Sang Zhi's voice was loud and clear, and the onlookers were so excited when they heard it.
"We will wait here with the Eighth Prince. Beili will not tolerate traitors."
"He, Yuan Yintang, is just a small sect in the martial arts world. He killed the daughter of our general's mansion. It is really abominable. If we don't punish him, where is justice?"
"Eighth Prince, we will wait with you for justice."
"If the royal family deliberately covered up for him, it seems that treason and murder of the prince is not a big deal. If they use this crime to kill someone in the future, we will not accept it."
"Yes, if we don't punish those who collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, where will our national prestige be?"
Even as it got closer to midnight, the number of people watching continued to grow, and their voices grew louder and louder.
Upon seeing this, the lawyer hurried back to report that it couldn't be suppressed at all.
At the same time, the street where Xianrenzui was located, which was originally the most lively place, was now silent.
Yuan Yintang was stabbed by several swords. He covered his wounds and looked around, front and back, and on the rooftop. No one who came to ask for help had arrived. Did the emperor really ignore him?
Zhan Chi and Gu Shuo stood on the left, Qian Fan Ji and Luo Wen stood on the right.
Yingge and Du Yi stood on the roof, blood dripping from their swords.
Not far away, in the darkness, the members of the Alchemy Family were killed by the guards of the academy, and the alley was filled with blood.
In the back street, the palace's secret guards were stopped by people from the Helian Palace and the Changyang Palace. Both sides drew their swords and a fight was about to break out.
"We have been ordered by the emperor to protect Young Master Yuan. I advise you not to get involved in this matter." The hidden guard said coldly.
"We are following the order of the prince. If anyone wants to stop us, just come on." None of the guards in the palace were afraid, and Changjian gave the order.
The hidden guard didn't care about anything else and raised his hand to draw his sword.
Upon seeing this, the guards of the palace also rushed forward and engaged in a fight.
Yuan Yintang was weak and had long been exhausted after being besieged by so many people. He swept his eyes across the group of people with a vicious look.
As a warrior, he could clearly feel the murderous aura in them. Just because a child died, this group of people didn't even take the emperor's decree seriously.
This group of people is terrible!
