Chapter 166: The crowd is excited
As soon as Zhu Zifeng finished speaking, all the guards from the Princess's Mansion rushed out, and the flashes of swords and knives were swung wildly, flashing past Shu He's eyes.
The master moved, his internal energy surged, and several people attacked, murderous intent surging. The cold swords and knives were like surging and roaring waves, crashing into Shu He fiercely, as if to drown her under the blades and crush her in the murderous aura.
She stood there, her eyes calm and fearless, the dagger in her hand slightly tilted, emitting a cold light.
Just as she was about to move, a black figure came down from mid-air, somersaulted on both feet, and kicked all the swords in the hands of the guards away.
A strong and violent airflow burst out from him, blowing all the guards away.
Zhu Zifeng looked at this shocking scene and his face turned pale instantly, with only the bloody slap mark still tinged with red.
Shu He's face was also slightly surprised. After seeing who it was, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he arrived in time, otherwise, she would have been ready to fight to the death with this group of people!
"Oh my God! Who is that? He defeated all the guards of the princess's mansion without even using a sword!"
"This is a master on the Tianxiao list!" The sword-wielding man exclaimed in surprise, his eyes shining, his gaze fixed on the man in the yard, and he couldn't help but take two steps forward.
"What? Is that a master from the Tianxiao Ranking?"
Some were curious, some were shocked, and some were full of admiration and wanted to enter the courtyard to take a look at the legendary figure.
At this time, outside the Zhen Mansion, a handsome man came from the street pushing a black iron wheelchair.
The iron wheel rolls and contacts the bluestone ground, making a "bang bang bang" sound.
For some reason, the noisy crowd, upon hearing the sound, all shut their mouths, looked towards the wheelchair, and their breathing slowed down.
Sitting in the wheelchair was a man with long flowing hair, sharp eyebrows, and bright eyes. His face was stunning and as cold as the moon shining alone in the dark night, hanging high in the sky, seemingly out of reach.
There was no emotion on his face, but one could still see his nobility and a touch of otherworldly temperament, as if he were from another world.
The streets were so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop, as if everyone was afraid that any sound would disturb the heavenly man.
It was not until the man entered the gate of the Zhen Mansion and entered the courtyard that people in the crowd gradually spoke.
"Who is this? I don't know how to describe his temperament..." It seemed as if no words in the world could describe that person's temperament.
"I don't know, but judging from his temperament, he shouldn't be an ordinary person."
"Look, he and that woman are acquaintances!"
After Baili Moqing came in, his eyes were immediately attracted by the blood-stained lake blue clothes.
An unhappy expression appeared on his slightly pale face. "Who hurt you?"
Shu He was a little surprised to see him coming.
Wake up so soon? I thought he would sleep for two more days.
Shu He didn't know that Baili Moqing was actually woken up by Madam Wang...
"It's okay, just a minor injury." She hid her injured hand, a look of worry on her face, "Xiao Yi'er..."
"Don't worry. I understand." The man's deep and magnetic voice made her feel relieved.
When Zhu Zifeng saw the person coming, a bit of nervousness appeared on his face, but after thinking about it carefully, he returned to normal.
"Your Highness, your physician wants to assassinate the eldest princess. Are you going to protect such a traitor?" She took the initiative to prove Shu He's guilt.
Shu He looked at her indifferently, feeling somewhat disappointed. Is this Zhu Zifeng's only ability?
"Oh? Really?" Baili Moqing heard this, his face expressionless. He just turned his head to look at Shu He beside him and asked seriously, "You want to assassinate the princess?"
Shu He looked back into his eyes and shook her head seriously, "No. The Princess and I have no grudges against each other, so how could there be any talk of assassination?"
Zhu Zifeng snorted coldly, pointing at the people outside and said, "There are so many eyes watching here! Your Highness can ask the people outside if this woman ignored the guards' attempts to stop her, forced her way into the princess's room, and even injured the princess's guards!"
"If this isn't an assassination attempt, what is it?"
Baili Moqing listened, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and looked at Shu He. It seemed that he had no intention of taking action, as if he wanted to see her performance?
Seeing this, Shu He also raised the corners of her mouth slightly. When she looked at Zhu Zifeng again, her face was already filled with deep sarcasm.
"Miss Zhu's ability to lie with open eyes is truly admirable! I've emphasized more than once that I'm here to take my child back!"
"But Miss Zhu, knowing that I was here to pick up my child, she allowed her men to block me from entering and even attacked me! If I hadn't had some skills to protect myself, I'd probably be a cold corpse right now, right?"
Zhu Zifeng secretly gritted her teeth. This woman was really good at confusing right and wrong. She wanted to kill her after she had hit her!
What she said now made it seem as if she was going to kill her from the very beginning!
"Madam He, I told you very clearly that as long as the prince came, the child would be returned safely. But you didn't listen at all and insisted on breaking into the mansion. I think you are clearly angry with the princess and intend to assassinate her!"
Zhu Zifeng, who had spent years in the inner palace and in the presence of the eldest princess, was very skilled in the harem's tactics of calling a black cat a white cat, and confounding right and wrong. He was adept at telling lies and shifting concepts. He directly transformed Shu He's eagerness to take the child back into resentment towards the eldest princess, and thus forced his way into the mansion.
Although Shu He despised such insidious tactics, she felt that to deal with such people, she had to let them suffer the consequences of her own tactics, so that they would understand what "crushing" meant!
"Miss Zhu, how can you confuse right and wrong so much?"
A voice with a faint cry suddenly sounded, causing Zhu Zifeng to be stunned for a moment.
Then, after seeing the slightly fake expression on her face, Zhu Zifeng's face instantly turned cold.
Seeing this, Shu He's face flashed with pride, but then quickly turned into a look of panic, and he turned around to look behind him.
Tears welled up in her bright, clear eyes as she spoke to the people outside, "I'm just a mother trying to find my child. My child is only two years old and can barely walk. And yet, without anyone notifying her, she was brought to the Princess's residence. Tell me, if it were you, would you not be anxious? Would you not be worried?"
The onlookers outside heard this and looked at the woman's blood-stained clothes, her face filled with worry and helplessness. Their emotions were instantly aroused. "Yes! I arrived first, and I clearly heard her say she wanted to take the child back! There was no assassination!"
"I can also testify!"
"I testify as well! That woman had no intention of assassinating!"
Several people shouted, making Zhu Zifeng's face look even uglier. Her face darkened slightly and she was about to speak, but Shu He beat her to the punch.
"What kind of place is the Princess's Mansion? If an ignorant child cries out of fear or missing his mother, angering the adults, how can that child survive?"
"Ask yourselves, if it were you, would you worry about your child being beaten, scolded, or hurt?"
There was a mother in the crowd who burst into tears when she heard her words. "I never thought the child was kidnapped! No wonder this woman risked her life to break into the princess's mansion!"
"For the sake of the child, he even disregarded his own life. It is truly admirable!"
Shu He's eyes flickered as she continued to cry, "I just want my child back, but why don't they want me to? Even as the eldest princess, you can't disregard the law and snatch someone else's child away at will, right?!"
"Could it be that the laws of this apocalypse only restrict ordinary people like us? Can the royal family and nobles do whatever they want and ignore the laws?!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded instantly!
"They say that a prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. Why can the law only restrain ordinary people?!"
"This is not fair!"
"unfair!"
"Let the princess hand over the child!"
"Let the princess hand over the child!!"
For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar, and the voices of questioning reached the backyard, startling the eldest princess who was dressing up.
