Chapter 316 [316] Heir to a Hidden Family (2)
At that moment, Tang Ning and Mu Jinnian, who possessed the amazing sixth-level combat power, fell to their knees involuntarily as if they were controlled by an invisible and irresistible force.
Their bodies seemed to no longer belong to them. No matter how they struggled, it was useless. They could only watch themselves surrender to Luo Qinghuan.
At that moment, the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard clearly.
Tang Ning felt his heart beating violently, almost jumping out of his throat. The fear deep in his heart quickly spread to every corner of his body like a surging tide.
She was very aware that it was her own stupidity and ignorance that had led to such a disaster, which not only harmed herself, but also implicated her beloved son and loyal husband.
At this moment, Luo Qinghuan's face was as cold as ice, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a cold light. She opened her red lips slightly and asked coldly: "Aye, disturbing the Crown Princess and causing her to faint, this is a serious crime, how should it be punished?"
These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears.
Obviously, Luo Qinghuan intended to put this huge accusation on Mu Yunliang's head.
She just wanted to take this opportunity to test Tang Ning's courage and ability, and whether he dared to face such heavy pressure and guilt.
Rong Ye's eyes, as cold as stars, carried endless chill as he glanced coldly at Tang Ning and Mu Jinnian.
His voice was as cold as if it came from the Netherworld. He said slowly, "Huanhuan, just disturbing the noble Princess Royal is enough to get that ignorant fellow sentenced to the most cruel death penalty!"
Obviously, he had keenly noticed that the little female beside him was angry, and he had the idea of giving Tang Ning and Mu Jinnian a good scare.
If that was the case, how could he have the slightest hesitation to go against her wishes?
At this moment, Huoscheng on the side raised the corner of his mouth slightly, outlining an evil and wanton smile.
He folded his hands casually in front of his chest, staring at Mu Jinnian with interest and a little provocation, his tone full of contempt and ridicule: "Haha, Mu Jinnian, ah Mu Jinnian, I didn't expect that we haven't seen each other in just a few years."
"You used to be so majestic and arrogant, but now you have become a henpecked husband who is afraid of his wife!"
Having said this, Huo Sicheng paused deliberately, and then continued in a sarcastic tone: "As the head of a high and mighty hidden family, do you still have to rely on your wife for everything you do?"
However, he seemed to have completely forgotten one fact - even strong men like them who stood at the pinnacle of power and could be called big bosses, in many cases, had to obey the arrangements of their wives.
Mu Jinnian no longer cared about his own face at this time. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to protect his family.
He knelt on his knees without hesitation, then banged his head on the ground.
He kowtowed with extreme force every time, and soon a redness and swelling appeared on his forehead. However, he seemed not to feel the pain and continued to kowtow.
While kowtowing, he shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me! All the faults are on me alone. Please do not blame others."
His voice was full of regret and self-blame, which moved people.
Then, Mu Jinnian continued, "It is because I usually neglected to discipline my son that he acted so recklessly today and disturbed the noble Princess."
"I beg the Emperor, the Empress, and the Crown Princess to be magnanimous and spare my family." "To show my sincerity, I am willing to donate all of the Mu family's ancestral jade mines as an apology!"
"As for my son, I'll leave it to the Queen and the Emperor to deal with!"
After saying this, he clenched his teeth tightly, as if he had made a great determination.
Because he knew very well what this jade mine meant to the Mu family. It was the foundation of the family's wealth passed down from generation to generation!
But at this moment, in order to protect the safety of his family, he had no choice but to give up.
Tang Ning, who was standing nearby, was so frightened that her face turned pale as paper. Her lips trembled slightly and she opened her mouth several times to try to defend herself.
However, the Queen's majestic and sharp gaze and her frightening aura kept appearing in her mind, causing her to swallow back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
She knew very well that in the Zizhuo Empire, the Queen held supreme power. If she insisted on punishing her family, it would be easier than crushing an ant to death.
Therefore, at this moment, she didn't dare to do anything disobedient.
Luo Qinghuan deliberately kept a straight face and looked at the other beastly husbands: "What do you guys think? After all, disturbing the Crown Princess is not a trivial matter."
Originally, she had no intention of making things difficult for Mu Jinnian and Tang Ning. It was Tang Ning who was trying to take advantage of her that made her angry and scold her.
Xue Mo pursed his lips and smiled wickedly: "Huan'er, considering Mu Jinnian's sincerity, I can handle it as appropriate."
"However, Tang Ning seems to have something to say. In the Zizhuo Empire, freedom of speech is allowed. Why don't we listen to what Tang Ning has to say?"
He had always disliked that brat Mu Yunyang, but who knew that his mother was still so confused. If he didn't create some problems, he wouldn't be Xue Mo.
He disturbed his precious daughter and yet he wanted to get away with it. He was giving them face!
Mu Jinnian closed his eyes in pain and stopped forcing Tang Ning. It was up to her whether she admitted her fault or not. After all, he had already done everything he could.
Tang Ning no longer had the aggressiveness he had just shown. All he felt was regret. If it weren't for his bad mouth, how could the Mu family's jade mine be gone just like that?
Tangning thought about it and quickly imitated Mu Jinnian's actions. She kowtowed to Luo Qinghuan and begged for mercy, "Empress, this is all my fault. I don't know how to speak. Please forgive me."
"Considering that this is Yan'er's first time making a mistake, can you forgive him this time?"
She quickly banged her head heavily on the ground, and soon her forehead became red and swollen, which made Mu Jinnian feel distressed.
Xiao Yize stepped forward, rubbed Luo Qinghuan's shoulders and back, and said softly: "Luo'er, I think Mu Yunyan has a good foundation. Why don't we let him stay in Luo Garden. How about being our Dabao's secret guard?"
"But he is too weak right now. We will go back and train him again. When he becomes a master, we will let him protect our treasure."
He also couldn't stand the fact that Tang Ning dared to put on airs in front of a young female. He wanted to severely dampen Tang Ning's arrogance!
