Chapter 526: Her Threat

nds it fun and proactively grills for Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang.He had eaten a lot before coming here, so he was already full at the moment. However, seeing Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang eat the meat he g...Mo Yunze clenched his fists, his heart churning with boundless anger. He had clearly underestimated this woman!

I didn't expect her to be so cunning, she's truly a sly fox.

The Emperor fell silent for a moment, he had to look at Mo Yunze, and spoke with a slight gritted teeth, "Yunze, what on earth did you do"

Mo Yunze pursed his lips, "Father, would you believe me if I said I did nothing"

"Heh."

An Xue Tang suddenly let out a sneer, everyone subconsciously looked at her. An Xue Tang quickly walked two steps towards Mo Yun Ze, without saying a word, she raised her hand and slapped him hard!

"!"

The people present gasped, each feeling as if they had been struck by lightning from head to toe. They were utterly bewildered and couldn't comprehend the actions of this Northern Frontier Princess!

To know, the Emperor is still in the main hall! How could she be so... brazen!

Mo Yunze covered his face, staring at her in shock, "An Xuetang, do you have any idea what you're doing"

The Emperor was also furious. An Xuetang's actions completely disregarded him. She dared to be so brazen and hit someone in front of him, and the person she hit was a high-ranking prince!

Mo Yunjing raised his brows, and his deep eyes glanced at An Xuetang.

The Emperor was furious and about to speak when An Xuetang took the initiative. She looked at the Emperor, "Father, my concubine says she didn't do anything just now. Do you believe her"

"..." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Isn't this exactly what Mo Yunze just said to the Emperor

Now, An Xue Tang was actually doing this… In an instant, the emperor’s words that were about to leave his lips were choked back.

While Mo Yunze's face flickered, he and the emperor glared angrily at An Xue Tang, both speechless with rage!

At this time, An Xuetang smiled again and leisurely continued, "Father King, you're not blind, the civil and military officials aren't blind or deaf either. Some people are wrong, they're just wrong. Can they just admit it and move on"

"Get out of here!"

The Emperor finally couldn't help but reprimand, "You... An Xuetang, you have such audacity! In my presence, you dare to be so unrestrained, not putting me in your eyes at all!"

As he spoke, the Emperor cast a cold glance at the eunuch beside him and roared, "Bring this woman before me! Have her beaten thirty lashes!"

Mo Yunjing's dark and deep eyes narrowed slightly. He reached out and grabbed An Xuetang's arm. An Xuetang knew what he was going to do. At this moment, she glanced at him with a smile in her eyes, telling him not to speak.

She has her own plans today, and she said it earlier, not to provoke the Emperor's anger at first, because... there are plenty of things that can make him angry today!

Soon after the emperor's order, several people rushed over. However, An Xuetang remained composed. She stared intently at the emperor:

"Your Majesty, so this is the reward you wished to bestow upon me Thirty taels of silver This... unique gift, your humble daughter-in-law cannot possibly accept!"

The emperor's face was dark, and he gritted his teeth. "You publicly challenged imperial authority and assaulted the prince! You deserve a thousand deaths! I merely sentenced you to thirty lashes, is that unreasonable"

"Is that so"

An Xuetang curled her lips, her calm demeanor made the civil and military officials present feel a wave of sympathy for her. They had never seen such a scene before, not even Bei Jiang Wang had dared to openly defy the emperor like this.

An Xuetang twisted her neck, "If I defend myself, that's wrong too. Father King, do you mean to continue protecting this scoundrel who bullies his sister-in-law in front of all the civil and military officials, attempting to take advantage of her"

Mo Yunze clenched his fists, his face contorting with veins as he growled, "You woman, you slander this king and tarnish your own reputation. What benefit does this bring you"

"That's right, what's in it for me So why wouldn't you believe me Should a prince be shielded just because he broke the law"

As they spoke, An Xue Tang turned to look at Mo Yun Jing, her tone laced with sarcasm:

"A-Jing, I knew we would be bullied when we entered the palace. And now I finally understand, what people say outside is true. Your father is indeed cold and ruthless towards you. He favors any of his sons except for you."

In the midst of their conversation, she walked up to Mo Yunjing and took his arm, soothing him like a child. "It's alright, Mo Jing," she said, "He doesn't favor you, but I do. The people favor you even more!"

"How many victories did the War God, King of the Northern Frontier, achieve How many times did he defeat his enemies This time, it was Zi Ling who captured the people of Great Yue. Both you and your nephew have made great contributions. The common people know this well."

"The father cannot see, but the people of the world can see!"

An Xuetang grew more and more agitated as she spoke, Mo Yunjing's lips curled into a smile, his dark, deep eyes fixed on her. On this court of power, besides his elder brother, no one had ever defended him or fought for him like this.

An Xuetang's words made the emperor's face turn as dark as ink. He clenched his fists, narrowed his icy eyes, and gritted out through his teeth, "An Xuetang, are you threatening me"

At this moment, she brought up the common people, wasn't she just reminding him of the incident where the common people made a commotion some time ago

He even suspected that the person who dared to sneak into the palace and place "water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it" by his bedside was her!

It was because of this very sentence that he had someone go out to inquire among the common people, to discern truth from falsehood. Only then did he learn that for so many years, both civil and military officials, as well as the common people, had harbored resentment towards him.

That's why he cares so much about public opinion now. I have to say, those words still give him pause.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!

Isn't this an example of what he used to overthrow his older brother

So he couldn't help but feel wary.

When Emperor asked, An Xue Tang narrowed her eyes slightly, "My daughter-in-law is just an ordinary country girl. Where would she have the courage to threaten her father"

"But let me make this clear, a woman's reputation is more important than her life. Today, Mo Yunze speaks to me in such a way, insulting me. If Father wants to protect him, then today this daughter-in-law will turn against you completely!"

The Emperor let out a cold snort, he was about to sneer and say that even if she flipped her face, so what, but An Xuetang, as if knowing what he wanted to say, didn't give him a chance to speak, continuing,

"Of course, if I were to turn against them, then whether or not Nian Yun City, which obeys my command, would eventually fall under the control of the Tian Ba Kingdom's court, I wouldn't dare guarantee."

An Xuetang's words clearly implied that if she was unhappy, would Tianba Kingdom want to take control of Nianyun City

You see, Nianyun City used to be Dali Country.

The emperor clenched his fists, his face contorted with fury, "You dare threaten me"

An Xuetang smiled. "No, no, you are the emperor of Tianba Kingdom. How could a daughter-in-law dare threaten you I'm just stating a fact, to let Father King know, and also so that you can better understand who should be protected and who should be abandoned, wouldn't you say"

"..."

Mo Yunze gritted his teeth, An Xuetang was deliberately forcing the emperor to punish him

No, he deeply suspected her motives were far more complex than they appeared!

What on earth does An Xue Tang want

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!er todayShe felt very guilty, so she had to do something about it right now. She knew that the doctor at their estate was capable of this, so she wanted him to go and see Ye Er now.Let's see how badly...
