Chapter 220 - Urine Scented

Talking and listening, listening to the drums and the gongs and drums!

The space between Old Emperor's eyebrows that was originally stretched out became a knot once again. Everyone knew that this was because he was reminded of the incident where Xiao Qingqian had crippled a person while fighting for Wei Qing.

An Ran and Wei Qing looked at each other and immediately spoke out, "Royal father, have you investigated clearly why Third Brother would fight over the Third Sister-in-Law?"

Old Emperor frowned as he glanced at Xiao Qingqian.

Before, no matter how much he interrogated, Xiao Qingqian never spoke of it. Even if he wanted to help him dispense with the responsibility, it was impossible!

An Ran continued: "Since third brother is unwilling to talk, then let the wounded and disabled person speak!"

Hearing that, Xiao Hanqi's face suddenly changed several times.

This peace and quiet was really meddling in other people's business!

"An Jing, with the Sea Country Prince here, in front of outsiders, is it appropriate for you to say something like that?" he demanded darkly.

An Ran raised her eyebrows and said fearlessly: "Crown Prince, no matter what, the Prince of Sea Country followed Third Bro and went through a relief operation in the south and even came to the capital together. Do you think that he isn't appropriate?"

Hearing that, Felerol immediately shook his head, "There's nothing that's inappropriate!"

Xiao Hanqi's hand under his sleeve suddenly tightened. One or two, they all made him unhappy!

Jin Qiao’er was the closest to him, so he could clearly feel the sharp aura radiating from Yun Che's body.

Since Felerol felt that there was nothing wrong with it, she must definitely continue.

When the city gate guard was brought up, his arm was still hanging, and his face was still swollen. It was even more frightening than that night.

Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian looked at each other as Xiao Qingqian narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Xiao Hanqi was despicable, this person really dared to do anything for money.

Seeing how seriously injured he was, Old Emperor frowned. The empress dowager sucked in a cold breath and closed her eyes to read "Amitabha."

An Jing walked out of her seat and sized him up, "Tell me, what happened at that time?"

The guard pursed his lips and looked at everyone with a bit of trepidation.

An Ran looked impatient. "Don't say anything?"

"Princess, this one is just a city gate guard. Please be magnanimous and let this lowly one go!"

An Ran raised her eyebrows. "You are already disabled. I'm afraid you won't be able to defend the city gates in the future!"

"Huh?"

Back then, when someone found him and made him proclaim the fact that he was crippled by Xiao Qingqian, they gave him a generous sum of silver. However, there was still a portion of money that had to wait until the matter was completed.

When a guard saw wealth open up, he would naturally use all means at his disposal.

"Princess Tranquil, let me ask about this matter!" Wei Qing stood up.

Xiao Qingqian glanced at her worriedly, but Wei Qing smiled faintly.

The guards had just been shocked by An Ran, and this time, they did not dare meet Wei Qing's gaze.

"When I entered the city gate that day, I asked you to pass on a message to my father. Do you still remember what you said back then?"

"Princess Chu, this little one did not recognize any beads, please be magnanimous!"

Wei Qing said softly, "That night in the market, I accidentally bumped into you, what did you say?"

The guard asked two questions in a row without answering them in time. None of those present were ordinary either. With these two questions linked together, it was very easy to guess that this guard had offended Wei Qing from the very beginning. Moreover, he even insulted Wei Qing with an eye that did not recognize the beads, otherwise, Xiao Qingqian would not have made a move.

"That night, the prince only gave you two slaps. I'm curious as to where the wounds on your body came from!" Wei Qing looked at him with interest, but his eyes grew colder and colder.

The guard was shocked, and the blood drained from his face in an instant.

"Princess Chu, it's all my fault, you are a big shot!"

Wei Qing's face suddenly darkened, "You are slandering a great Prince Chu, and a great Princess Chu! You are just a big shot, and yet you want me to let you go, hmm?"

It was astonishing, especially the Empress Dowager.

An Jing also hurriedly begged Old Emperor, "Father, this kind of person who spits feces all over his mouth should be dragged out to cut the meat and feed it to the dogs, piece by piece!"

Hearing this, the guard was even more frightened, his whole body trembling like a sieve.

Wei Qing smirked, "Princess Tranquil, isn't this a bit too much!"

"Huh?" An Xin did not understand, why did Wei Qing have to plead for her again.

"At most, this person is greedy for money. He doesn't have a mouth to stop him, so there's no need to kill him."

"But, he is slandering Third Brother and Third Sister-in-Law after all!" An Xin was really unable to guess what Wei Qing was planning to do.

Wei Qing's smile became wider and wider, "The Buddha Scripture states that there is a punishment of those who have violated karmic retribution, which is a crime of speech.

As she finished her sentence, the crowd smelled a whiff of urine.

An Ran looked at the yellow liquid on the floor in front of the guard with a look of disgust. She covered her nose and asked, "Do you know where this is?"

The guard was scared out of his wits and trembled all over, yet he could not utter a complete sentence.

"Someone come," Wei Qing called out.

The guard swallowed his saliva and hurriedly explained, "Princess Chu, if someone did not bribe me with silver taels, I would agree to it and beat the little one up. I would definitely not do this!"

An Xin released his hand, then glared at him fiercely. "Do you know who the person who bought you is?"

The guard shook his head.

Wei Qing raised her eyes, and looked at Xiao Hanqi meaningfully.

Since he dared to do such a thing, he naturally wouldn't do it himself. If he continued to ask, it would be impossible for him to get anything out of him. As long as he could help Xiao Qingqian wash everything off.

The Old Emperor said gloomily: "Then let's do it this way. Someone, bring this person down!"

"Father, he slandered Third Brother and the Third Sister-in-Law!" Rest assured, Rest assured.

Old Emperor took a deep breath, "An Jing, don't meddle in this matter anymore. Tonight's feast has ruined the atmosphere!"

An Ran pursed her lips, glanced at Xiao Hanqi who had let out a breath of relief, and snorted heavily: "If there wasn't someone who was so bored that he insisted on causing trouble, how could things have turned out like this?"

Everyone present knew who the "someone" she was referring to represented.

The Old Emperor waved his hand, "Don't bring this up again, pass down my orders. If we hear these slander and slander towards Prince Chu again, we will lock them up in the prison!"

Hearing this, An Ran's face finally revealed a smile.

She looked at Xiao Hanqi and smiled: "Thank you, royal father!"

Wei Qing also returned to her seat, and immediately, people came up to clean up the stains on the hall, and the banquet continued.
