You see, the evidence is as solid as a mountain, the facts are laid out before us, how could she be wronged?
Even if you were blind and couldn’t see, don’t you still have subordinates by your side?
With just a glance from Lady Zhen, Zhen Fantong immediately began to moan.
"Ouch... I’m in such pain... it feels like my leg is broken, and my foot too... it hurts so much! Your Highness, Prince Qin, this is all Lin Wanyue’s doing, you must seek justice for me!"
Mrs. Qin instantly felt enlightened by the situation.
"Your Highness, I dare to plead for justice as well! Lin Wanyue disrespected the chief wife, beat my nursemaid into unconsciousness, and pushed me into the lake, attempting to harm the chief wife. I beg Your Highness to see clearly!"
"Your Excellency Prince Qin, please seek justice for us small folk!"
Mrs. Qin gave a look, and the thugs who were sprawled all over the place promptly kneeled and cried injustice as well.
Nangong Mo lifted his gaze, looking towards Yun Ran, his voice deep and laced with a hint of amusement, "My dear consort, were these people all beaten by you?"
She had just been praised as gentle as water... and now her image is about to shatter so quickly...
Just as she was lamenting, she heard the man’s gentle voice asking, "Does your hand hurt?"
"Next time something happens, there’s no need for you to personally take action."
What? What does that mean? Is it what she thinks it means? It can’t be! Why does it feel like her brain can’t process this?
Not only was Yun Ran dumbfounded, but so were the surrounding people.
Mrs. Qin took a while to find her voice, "Your Highness?! You? What do you mean by that?"
Nangong Mo coolly raised an eyebrow, his ethereal face exuding a chill like wind and snow.
"My consort is the gentlest and most delicate, yet you forced her to the point of taking action. It shows how utterly appalling your actions must have been!"
Mrs. Qin’s widened eyes were filled with disbelief, mingling with a trace of indignant resentment amidst her shock.
Just because he has military achievements and is deeply esteemed by the people, he’s so unruly and cruel, disregarding others, tyrannical and reckless! Absolutely detestable!
"Your Highness, according to you, her attacking others is justified? Since when has our laws accommodated such reasoning?"
Mrs. Qin tried to use the law and the emperor to suppress others, but Nangong Mo simply dismissed it with disdain.
His demeanor was leisurely, yet it carried an intimidating sharpness.
"Being beaten was your own doing, pushing a frail woman to fight back. Indeed, you deserve your fate."
Mrs. Qin and the others: "??!!......
They were beaten, and they’re the ones who deserve it?! Is there still justice?
The blind man! Couldn’t he see how brutal she was when she hit people?
Who forced her to hit anyone?
Clearly, she’s savage and loves to fight! What normal girl carries a brick with her when she goes out?!
Suppressing her anger, Mrs. Qin spoke with righteous indignation:
"Your Highness, what you’re saying is rather unfair."
"I caught her attempting to murder the princely heir of Ding’an Marquis Mansion, and when I reprimanded her with a few words, she bore a grudge and pushed me into the lake."
"According to you, should I have turned a blind eye and let her kill?"
"Exactly, exactly! If Aunt hadn’t arrived in time, I would have been murdered by her!"
Nangong Mo casually glanced at the pig-headed face of Zhen Fantong, "If she killed you, she killed you."
What? What do you mean if she killed, she killed? Is he just some cat or dog?
Zhen Fantong felt his dignity had been greatly insulted!
With a surge of anger, a sudden flash of inspiration struck Zhen Fantong, and he pointed at Yun Ran, shouting:
"She seduced me! I refused, so she became angry from embarrassment, turned love into hatred, and wanted to kill me out of spite!"
