Chapter 1792 Breaking off relations
“Your Highness is always steady and would never do something like breaking into the palace with the Prince’s token. But I’m different.” Fang Zilan curled her lips, her expression almost arrogant. “My newlywed husband is in the palace. I can’t eat or sleep if I can’t see him.”

After she finished speaking, she suddenly bent down and pulled Murong Xun up from the ground, and at the same time quickly took the token from his waist. "Your Highness, consider this token stolen by me. After we return to the manor, you may kill or punish me as you see fit."

Murong Xun looked surprised. He had been a warrior for most of his life and had seen all kinds of experts. Yet now he had been easily lifted up by a delicate woman and had his personal token taken away without him having any chance to fight back.

This Miss Fang is not only not as useless as rumored, but also not as weak as she appears on the surface; in fact, she is quite unfathomable...

Mu Chuji, standing to the side, was even more dumbfounded. "Princess Consort, you..."

Fang Zilan ignored the two people who were standing there dumbfounded, took the token and walked straight to the palace gate, saying to the guards, "You've all seen it clearly, why don't you let us through?"

"Wait a minute." Mu Chuji's expression hardened. "You all heard it too, the Crown Prince's wife's token was stolen, so it doesn't count."

"Whether it counts or not is not up to His Highness Prince Qi." Fang Zilan did not turn around, still holding up the token, and remained deadlocked with the guards at the gate.

Mu Chuji looked at Murong Xun for help, but saw him hesitate. Just as she was about to say a few more words of advice, Fang Zilan seemed to have lost patience and rushed in with her token in hand.

Seeing this, Mu Chuji clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "The wife of the Prince of Zhongzheng has broken into the palace with malicious intent. Seize her for me."

"Let's see who dares!" Murong Xun stood in front of Mu Chuji, unleashing his full power. Although his hair was completely white, he still seemed to be the legendary God of War of Miluo, who could kill gods and Buddhas alike, and was invincible and unbreakable.

Mu Chuji's lips moved, and the private form of address slipped out, "Sir... what are you doing?"

“Your Highness, if anything were to happen to Qing’er, I would never forgive myself for the rest of my life.” Murong Xun said, bowing. “I hope Your Highness can understand my heart as a father.”

Mu Chuji's veins bulged, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Sir, if only I had known this would happen, I would have..."

"Your Highness, please be careful with your words." Murong Xun straightened his body, as upright as a pine tree. "The Loyal Prince's Mansion is loyal to the Mu family and loyal to Miluo. This will never waver."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Zilan's figure disappeared, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Make way." Fang Zilan held the royal token all the way, but she was not without obstacles. However, she still managed to force her way in and reach the front of the Wuji Hall.

If Fang Zilan hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have found it hard to connect the mangled, bloodied person in front of her with the sickly and delicate Murong Qing.

Last night, she called him "sister" in her ear. This person, whose thoughts are unfathomable, is now being tormented to the point of near death under the tiger's claws.

"You say my Liu family is unforgivable, but what about your Xiahou family?" Liu Yong pointed at Xiahou Yunzhao and angrily rebuked, "You turn a blind eye and let us aristocratic families fall into the abyss. Even if you are not guilty of heinous crimes, you are at least negligent in your supervision."

"Yes, I admit it." Xiahou Yunzhao's expression was completely calm. "What's done is done, and I won't make excuses for myself."

Upon hearing this, Fang Zilan looked over sharply. Xiahou Yunzhao said she understood her to some extent; was that really how she understood her? Well, so be it. Those who kill should be prepared to be killed.

From this perspective, neither she nor Xiahou Yunzhao can be considered innocent.

only……

Thinking of this, Fang Zilan looked at Xie Chen, who was sitting upright in the courtroom. His expression was normal, but his lips were pursed into a straight line. Would he really judge the Xiahou family?

“Since General Xiahou is willing to plead guilty, then you cannot only admit to the crimes of my Liu family.” Liu Yong flicked his sleeve. “Of the five families in Lingnan, my Liu family was forced to collude with the bandits, and your Xiahou family stood by and did nothing. The Wu family daughter is your brother’s wife, General Xiahou. You know better than anyone what the Wu family has done. Fu Congnan is in charge of the army, and even if the Dugu family is backing him, he is still inextricably linked to your Xiahou family. As for the Wen family…”

"Is Lord Liu trying to drag everyone down with him?" Fang Zilan interrupted Liu Yong, who sneered, "Madam, I haven't even mentioned the Fang family yet, so you'd better shut up to avoid getting burned."

"I'm not sitting here today with any intention of leaving unscathed." Fang Zilan straightened her clothes and sat up straight. "I was also present at the Wen family's ghost marriage."

Liu Yong frowned. "Lady Heir, what are you trying to say?"

"Lord Wen's cause of death is unknown, and Young Master Wen is seriously injured and in a coma. No one in the Wen family can stand up to defend him." Fang Zilan said seriously, "What I want to say is that the truth should not be told by you alone."

"With General Xiahou here, the truth cannot be told by me alone." Liu Yong glanced at Xiahou Yunzhao with a half-smile. "General Xiahou, what do you think, should I continue?"

Xiahou Yunzhao shrugged indifferently, "Whether you say it or not is up to you."

"Good, General Xiahou is indeed straightforward!" Liu Yong clapped his hands and laughed. Seeing this, Xie Chen's expression grew colder, but when facing Xiahou Yunzhao, he couldn't say anything.

"The Wen family colluded with the Ghost Gate, and Wen Ran even used the guise of traveling the world as a merchant to have connections with Miluo." Liu Yong said, looking at Fang Zilan, "Princess Consort, even if someone from the Wen family can stand in court, what can they do besides confess their crimes?"

Fang Zilan remained silent, which emboldened Liu Yong even more. "I almost forgot, if we're talking about colluding with the Ghost Gate, your Fang family is involved too. Not to mention your connections with Miluo, the Fang family produced you, the wife of the heir."

"The matter of Miluo was originally related to Mr. Zuo. My wife made it very clear in court that day." A clear, cold voice came from below the hall. The crowd involuntarily made way for him to walk into the hall. It was Murong Qing.

He walked to Fang Zilan's side, raised his hand and placed it on her shoulder, "Lord Liu's words seem to be an attempt to damage the relationship between Miluo and Dajing, his intentions are despicable."

His words grew increasingly harsh, until the last sentence suffocated Liu Yong, yet he still dared to say boldly, "Your Highness, if we're talking about damaging relations between our two countries, you should lead the troops..."

"Lord Liu, my husband is currently a guest in the capital; even His Majesty has to show him some respect," Fang Zilan interrupted Liu Yong sharply. "Are you really going to utter such harsh words?"

"He's just a hostage, that's all you've got, Lady Heir." Liu Neng sneered, but Fang Zilan wasn't bothered at all. "Lord Liu, before the case is closed, anyone can overturn it. But if you insist on making things difficult for my husband, I'm afraid your Liu family might not live to see the truth come out."
