2509 The Perfectly-Matched Young Couple
The young priest who was the first to fan the flames, instigating Mo Zhuang to capture Qiaoqiao and sentence her to capital punishment, now hid in the crowd like a quail. He feared to even take a deep breath, but this did not mean that Mo Lian was willing to let him off.
He swept his eyes over and locked onto that young priest.
"Him!" Mo Lian pointed straight at him with his slender finger and ordered, "Drag him over!"
The young priest shook like a quail in the strong wind. He shook all over uncontrollably.
The Greenwood Guard had just touched his body when that priest dropped to the ground and kowtowed continuously. He exclaimed, "Spare me, Your Highness. Spare me, Your Highness. Spare me, Your Highness! This humble one was momentarily confused. Th-This humble one, this humble one spoke carelessly and o-offended the crown prince consort. Th-This humble one is willing to apologize to the crown prince consort."
As he spoke, he scrambled to Qiao Mu and wailed miserably as if he had lost his parents. "Spare me, Crown Prince Consort. Crown Prince Consort! This humble one is but an insignificant nobody. Your noble eyes simply have no space for me! This humble one had spoken impertinently just now! This humble one can slap his own mouth! Please, please leave this humble one a way out!"
While saying this, this young priest slapped his face lightly. He cowered boorishly and kowtowed several times in a row.
Qiao Mu looked at him expressionlessly and then harshly kicked him several feet away. "Stay away!"
"You want to arouse sympathy when you cry so uglily? Kill him!"
This person was truly abominable. He had been hiding in the crowd and kept inciting the crowd's ill feeling. Moreover, he himself hid in the crowd without showing his face. His petty behavior was truly disgusting.
If they didn't kill him now, were they going to wait for the new year?
Everyone: …
My crown prince consort! You are defying the heavens now!
His Highness the Crown Prince earlier: "We find him disagreeable. Beat him!"
Their crown prince consort: "You cry so uglily. Kill!"
Sure enough, you two are perfectly matched!
They were both so capricious and willful. Their behavior and actions were just so out of expectations…
The young priest was scared out of his wits. When he saw the Greenwood Guard walking up with a sword, a frenzied wrath eruped from his body, and he lunged over at Qiao Mu.
"Witch, I'm gonna risk it all!"
He was in the middle of his speech when he got chopped in the chest.
"What do you have to risk!? Just you? Are you qualified?"
Crown Prince Mo coldly withdrew his sword. His eyes were glinting coldly as he watched that person fall to the ground lifelessly.
He walked up and gripped Qiao Mu's slightly icy hands. A harsh glint slipped past his eyes as he spoke coldly. "Everybody look clearly! This is the consequence of slandering and vilifying Our crown prince consort!"
"Drag him away! Hang him at the city gate tower! Whip his corpse for three days and nights, and reduce him to dust without burying him!"
"Relay this imperial order to warn everyone! If there are any more defamers, their entire family will be executed! No one will escape punishment!"
Crown Prince Mo solemn voice rang out through Changle Boulevard. It caused the Violetwood Guard to bow their heads and the entire city's common people to prostrate in terror.
"Quell your anger, Crown Prince!"
"Quell your anger, Crown Prince!"
Even though the little lady looked expressionless, her heart must be cold. Her petite hands were already this cold. Mo Lian's heart ached. He clutched her petite hand very, very tightly.
It was him, it was his fault!
She encountered such an upsetting incident upon entering the capital!
His was going ballistic on the inside, and killing intent surfaced from deep within his eyes.
