Seeing that Mu Yichen only said a single word about Mo Qinghuan, yet Mu Yanming was so enraged, Mu Yichen felt a bit afraid in his heart.
However, he was the biological son of the current emperor and empress. Asking him to apologize to an unknown woman, how could he swallow this humiliation?
So he stiffened his neck and was reluctant to speak. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to them, Leng Nier pretended to faint and fell to the ground with a thud.
Mo Qinghuan just gave her a disdainful glance and knew it was a ruse, so she didn't plan to go forward to check on her.
But Mu Yichen, seeing his own princess faint, was extremely worried.
He rushed directly in front of Leng Nier and held her in his arms.
"Nier, Nier! What's wrong with you? Nier!" He shook the person in his arms vigorously, but the person in his arms kept her eyes tightly closed.
This really scared Mu Yichen.
He looked up at Mo Qinghuan, his eyes blazing with anger, wishing he could pierce countless holes in Mo Qinghuan's body.
Mu Yanming coughed lightly. "In Prince Qi's opinion, how should today's matter be dealt with?"
Mu Yichen snorted coldly, looked up at Mu Yanming, showing a look of complete nonchalance.
"How should it be dealt with in this king's opinion? Humph, this king's princess came here out of kindness to visit the princess consort, but was unjustly slandered in the Regent's Mansion. Now she has even fainted from anger. If it were up to this king, this matter can't end like this today!"
Mu Yanming and Mo Qinghuan exchanged a smile. They were just waiting for this sentence. Today's matter definitely couldn't end so easily.
So Mu Yanming took over the conversation and said directly, "Fine. Since today's matter can't end so easily, why don't we enter the palace to meet the emperor and ask His Majesty to come forward and see how this matter should be judged."
Mu Yichen seemed to realize that he had said something wrong at this moment. He gently smoothed the hair of the person in his arms.
He didn't respond anymore.
Mu Yanming looked at Jing Hua. "Help them onto the carriage and enter the palace to meet the emperor immediately."
Mu Yichen was so scared that his legs went weak. He laid Leng Nier flat, then got up and walked towards Mu Yanming.
"Meet the emperor! Even if we meet the emperor, are you so sure that the emperor will side with you?"
Hearing what he said, a hint of cruelty flashed in Mu Yanming's eyes.
"Whom the emperor will side with can only be known after we meet him. If you cooperate, this king will never make things difficult for you. But if you are insensible, this king will not spare you either."
Mu Yichen picked the person up horizontally and glared at Mu Yanming.
Under Jing Hua's guard, he walked out of the main gate of the Regent's Mansion.
On the way, he whispered to Leng Nier in his arms, "Did you get the thing?"
The person in his arms gently shook her head. Mu Yichen gritted his teeth. "Since we didn't get the thing, then deny it to the end! Let's see what he can do to us."
After getting on the carriage, Mu Yefeng also followed them into the palace.
Mu Yanming didn't want Mo Qinghuan to follow them and get tired. He originally wanted to leave her in the mansion, but she was determined to go. Helpless, he had to take her with him into the palace, along with several guards who were on duty at the study door at that time.
A quarter of an hour later, Mu Yichen's carriage stopped in front of the palace gate first.
Then came the carriages of Mu Yefeng and Mu Yanming.
The guards guarding the palace gate looked at each other. What kind of a battle was this!
Why did they all look so fierce? Could something extraordinary have happened!
Mu Yichen refused to get off the carriage. Jing Hua, following Mu Yanming's order, stepped forward to lift the curtain of the carriage.
Mu Yichen kicked Jing Hua in the chest and angrily scolded, "You good-for-nothing servant! This king is still here, yet you have no sense of propriety around this king's princess. This king really can't imagine what you've been doing when this king is not around."
Jing Hua covered his chest, turned to look at Mu Yanming, his eyebrows tightly knitted, and his fists clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands popped out.
Mu Yanming walked closer. Seeing Mu Yichen still sitting in the carriage, Leng Nier woke up slowly at this time. "Your Highness, this concubine has always been upright and has done nothing wrong. I will never accept such humiliation today."
Saying that, she was about to bang her head against the frame of the carriage. Mu Yichen, whether intentionally or unintentionally, failed to stop her in time.
Leng Nier banged her head directly against it, and blood trickled out of her forehead.
Mo Qinghuan looked at Mu Yanming, pulled him aside, and said in a low voice, "In my opinion, he's determined to act like a scoundrel to the end. Moreover, Leng Nier has even resorted to the trick of seeking death. I'm afraid even if we go to the emperor, we won't get any benefits. How about just letting this matter go?"
Before Mu Yanming could reply, Mu Yichen suddenly popped his head out of the carriage and anxiously shouted at Mo Qinghuan, "Princess consort, come and take a look at Nier quickly. She's bleeding so much. Come and see her quickly!"
Mo Qinghuan, arm in arm with Mu Yanming, walked to the carriage and took a look. Half of Leng Nier's face was covered in blood. If you saw her at night, you might be scared out of your wits.
Seeing that Mo Qinghuan didn't move, Mu Yichen lowered his posture and shouted again, "Princess consort, please, this king is begging you. Come and take a look at Nier quickly."
An idea came to Mo Qinghuan's mind. She walked to the carriage and said with a faint smile, "It's not impossible for me to save her. But for today's matter, you must give the prince an explanation. We can choose not to see the emperor, but this matter can't just end like this."
At this moment, Mu Yichen's mind and eyes were filled with only Leng Nier. He didn't care about anything else, so he nodded and agreed.
"Also, Jing Hua has never done anything improper to your princess. I want you to apologize to him!"
Jing Hua looked at Mo Qinghuan gratefully. He didn't expect Mo Qinghuan to defend him.
Mu Yichen was a bit impatient. His body and hands were covered in Leng Nier's blood, and all he could see was red. "This king agrees. This king will agree to whatever the princess consort says."
Mu Yanming snorted coldly. "Get off!"
Mu Yichen knew that Mu Yanming was afraid that he would harm Mo Qinghuan, so he obediently jumped off the carriage.
Mo Qinghuan, supported by Mu Yanming, got on the carriage. Jing Hua knew Mo Qinghuan's rules for seeing patients, so he led his men to guard in front of the carriage and said to Mo Qinghuan in the carriage, "Your Highness, please rest assured. Jing Hua will guard the carriage well. You can diagnose and treat her with peace of mind."
Mo Qinghuan gave a soft "hmm".
She took out the disinfection supplies and hemostatic things from her space. Normally, she was used to seeing blood and had never felt uncomfortable before.
But today, smelling the smell of blood, her stomach churned, and she felt like vomiting.
She quickened her movements. In a short while, she had cleaned the wound thoroughly. She originally wanted to bandage it, but under everyone's noses, she had gotten on the carriage with empty hands. If she were to bandage it, it would be too suspicious.
So she just cleaned the wound and got off. She walked a few steps towards the big tree beside her and vomited while holding onto the tree trunk.
A look of distress flashed in Mu Yanming's eyes. He turned back and glared at Mu Yichen fiercely.
