Zhui Yu held the knife against Zhong Liulang's neck.
Zhong Liulang's face turned pale.
He had not yet realized that he had brought disaster upon himself because he had offended Li Qingluo.
The Prince Su's Mansion has always been overbearing, arbitrary and arrogant. Even if everyone in the entire Jinling City knows who to provoke, they should never provoke them easily.
Because the people from the Prince Su's Mansion never waste time when taking lives.
They will not be afraid of the criminal's family background.
How could Zhong Liulang not be afraid?
He knew that Prince Su dared to kill even the second in command of the Earl of Ducang's Mansion, so today even he himself... would not dare to gamble with his life.
Zhong Liulang immediately understood the situation and begged for mercy: "Your Highness Prince Su, please forgive my words that offended me just now. I know I was wrong!"
Although he said he was submissive, the perfunctory look in his eyes couldn't deceive anyone.
Because Zhong Liulang soon figured it out, even if King Su was a devil who killed people without blinking an eye, so what?
After all, the Crown Prince and the Princess are still here today.
What he did was ugly. If he reported it to the saint, what good would come of it?
So what if he had just made great contributions in suppressing bandits?
Didn’t the Saint lock Duan Rongshi up for three months to reflect on his mistakes because of the incident at Earl Ducang’s mansion?
As long as Prince Su learns his lesson, he will just be showing off today.
Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi could clearly see the expressions on his face changing several times.
This person is definitely a vindictive villain.
Before Li Qingluo could even speak, Duan Rongshi said, "Since this is your first offense, I can forgive you this time."
"However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living punishment cannot be escaped."
Zhong Liulang was proud in his heart: See, he had already predicted this!
This Prince Su is just pretending to be powerful. With so many prominent families here today, how dare he really act so arrogantly?
"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Su, for your mercy."
He waited for Prince Su to blandly let the matter go.
If the commotion continues, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Her Royal Highness the Princess won't know how to react to the excitement.
Doesn't he have any shame?
Duan Rongshi: "I heard there's a python's den six miles ahead."
"This king does not force anyone to do anything."
"I don't want you to hunt pythons that you can't kill. How about you steal a snake egg for me?"
"After all, this king has always liked these ferocious little beasts."
"Raising it is really quite fun."
"What do you think, Zhong Liulang?"
Zhong Liulang trembled all over, and his face turned completely pale.
"Your Highness Prince Su, you, you..."
Zhui Yu mocked, "Zhong Liulang, as a captain of the Imperial Guard, can't you even do such a small thing?"
"Such a waste, in my opinion, it's better for him not to be a member of the Royal Guards!"
"Lest you fail to protect His Majesty's safety! If you ever drag down the entire Wenchang Marquisate, you will suffer along with it."
Zhong Liulang looked around in panic.
The eldest princess was watching the fun with great interest, holding her arms.
The prince frowned and said indifferently, "Fifth brother, don't make things too ugly."
Duan Rongshi: "Prince, why don't you clean up the matter with Lady Jing first? Otherwise, you and I won't be able to tell who will cause more trouble in front of our father."
The prince's face froze and he was suddenly speechless.
He was the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, but he kidnapped a noble lady of his father's family.
Although it was secretly sent to the Queen Mother, if this matter was deliberately made public, it would definitely damage my reputation.
Li Qingluo took the stone handed to him by Sha Wu and secretly flicked it at Zhong Liulang's horse's butt.
The horse neighed and ran forward like mad.
Zhui Yu quickly rode his horse to catch up and lead Zhong Liulang's mad horse away: "Mr. Zhong Liulang, don't take the wrong road! The snake eggs we want to present to His Highness are in this direction!"
"drive--"
Li Qingluo looked at Pan Li and Princess Nanping: "Let's go and take a look?"
Who wouldn’t want to watch such a thrilling and exciting event?
Even the prince, who always acted like a modest, elegant and calm gentleman, turned his horse around silently and chased after him with the eldest princess who looked excited and expectant.
By the time everyone arrived at the snake cave, Zhong Liulang's screams had already been heard.
I saw Zhong Liulang holding a knife and hacking away helplessly.
His horse had fallen into a snake den and was soon strangled to death by the python.
Besides the small snakes surrounding his feet, he was also struggling with three pythons at the same time.
Soon, he was successfully entangled by a python around his waist.
The other two followed suit.
Zhong Liulang lay on the ground with a face full of fear, stretched out his hands and shouted: "Save me——"
Prince: "Quick, someone come!"
"Prepare to shoot!"
Xiyue shouted: "No!"
"This will alarm the pythons and make them chase us."
"Ayin, don't act rashly."
But they didn't expect that there were so many pythons in this python nest!
Just the sight of those snakes is enough to give you a chilling feeling.
Who still wants to go there?
Princess Nanping and Pan Li even hugged each other tightly, ready to run away at any time.
The prince was righteously angry: "Are we just going to watch him die?"
"Xiaowu, you are really messing around!"
"How can you joke about human life?!"
"If this Zhong Liulang really died here today, I would not protect you!"
Duan Rongshi had already ridden his horse leisurely to the front.
He raised his hand slightly, and the guards of Prince Su's Mansion raised the torches they had just prepared high.
