If you want to leave, leave now.

Mo Jiuli looked at the defiantly possessive gleam in Ouyang Luochen’s eyes and almost felt sick…
Did he really think being a prince gave him some superiority?
His audacity was sickening.
However, given he was the Third Prince, and one of the Emperor’s favorite sons, Jiuli wondered if kidnapping him might be the key to obtaining the imperial decree cancelling her marriage contract.
“Master, this may be a good plan because I have just received word that General Mo’s proposal to the Emperor to cancel the marriage was rejected…” Lin Yue relayed to Mo Jiuli mentally.
“Hmm…
indeed,” Mo Jiuli responded.
Mo Jiuli was not surprised by Lin Yue’s news.
Any unexpected call to terminate a marriage contract was bound to be rejected, except perhaps if it came from the Crown Prince or Mo Jiuqi.
It seemed capturing this royal idiot might be their only option.
With this thought in mind, Jiuli softened her gaze towards Ouyang Luochen…
“I didn’t intend anything.
After all, the person wasn’t killed by me.
Why should I go with the Third Prince?
I’m not out of my mind…” Jiuli replied coolly.
“Old men, you all promised to help me resolve this marriage contract, but I heard that the Mo family’s proposal to end the contract was rejected by the Emperor.
So, make good use of this favored prince before us and exchange him for a decree cancelling the contract…” Mo Jiuli’s voice drilled into the ears of the Four Mo Family Elders.
Hearing this, the elderly, which included the Four Elders, were taken aback.
They had not expected the royal family to attach such importance to a marriage contract.
Mo Jiuli was supposedly dead, so why wouldn’t they let them end the marriage contract?
It appeared the royal family had other plans…
The Four Elders’ eyes met, causing chills to run down their spines.
They started strategizing…
The Four Mo Family Elders averted their gaze, casting a cold glance at Third Prince Ouyang Luochen, “Stop hesitating.
We are quite busy.
Speak your mind.
If you want to leave, hurry up.
If you want revenge, strike now!”
Ouyang Luochen didn’t understand why the aloof elder’s attitude suddenly changed.
Why?
Meanwhile, Mo Jiuli secretly signaled to Xue Feng, who nodded.
With a faint movement of his fingertips, an unnoticed spiritual power injected itself into the unconscious body of Princess Min…
When she was about to whine, she heard the rude speech of the Mo Family Ancestor…
Princess Min suddenly flared up with anger because someone dared to talk to her beloved prince in such an insolent way…
“Damn it, shameless old man, you dare to be so disrespectful!
You know you’re standing before the Third Prince!
You want to die?
Don’t think that we can’t annihilate your whole clan…” Ouyang Minmin got up, pointing at the Mo Family Ancestor and bellowing.
Except for Mo Jiuli and her two servants, the other four elders in the Mo family were dumfounded again, understanding how she woke up…
But Ouyang Luochen, the Third Prince, was endlessly dumbstruck by Ouyang Minmin’s yell…
“Shut up…”
“Well, who are you?” The Mo Family Ancestor asked harshly with a displeased face, interrupting the Third Prince.
“Hmph, I’m the adopted daughter of the Empress Dowager, and the Princess Min personally conferred by the Empress Dowager herself.
It was you who knocked me out earlier, and I won’t let you go for it.
Men, seize this old man and take him away…” recalled Ouyang Minmin, convinced that she had fainted because the old man used some sorcery.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and then she shouted.
However, her order was met with silence.
None of her guards appeared as they should have when they heard her order…
Ouyang Minmin curiously looked back and cried out in surprise when she saw not only her own guards had fainted, but also a lot of Third Prince’s guards…
Some of those who did not faint, had blood dripping from the sides of their mouth, giving the impression that they were severely injured…
Next, she sneaked a look at the Third Prince by her side and saw that he was staring at her as if he wanted to kill her.
Her confidence began to wane immediately…
She lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at Ouyang Luochen anymore.
She stood by like a frightened little wife, not uttering another word.
After all, in normal times, nothing scared her except for Ouyang Luochen’s angry, cold treatment…
Mo Jiuli glanced at Princess Min in surprise.
The woman who had just been furious had suddenly been tamed by a single glance from the Third Prince, seemingly like a sheep obeying a dominant force…
Unfortunately, this was not the result she wanted…
So Mo Jiuli smiled faintly and stated, “I need to rest now.
If the Third Prince and everyone else have no objections, please excuse me.”
As expected, no sooner had Mo Jiuli spoken than Ouyang Minmin, who had just lowered her head, immediately raised it to find out who had spoken.
However, when she saw Mo Jiuli’s gorgeous face, her own face became distorted with envy…
And the Third Prince’s gaze had been locked on Mo Jiuli’s face from the moment she spoke, which ignited the rage in Ouyang Minmin that she had just managed to suppress…
Eager not to waste any more time, Mo Jiuli dismissed everyone: “Yueyue, see the guests out…”
“Yes, Master!” Lin Yue responded and stepped forward along with Xue Feng.
Standing one on the left and the other on the right, they perfectly shielded Mo Jiuli from the gaze of everyone present…
Noticing Xue Feng, the Third Prince’s face darkened.
This man was even more handsome than himself and even Qin Luo, who was ranked first in the Continental Beauty List, which made him wonder, who was this man and how was he related to the woman on the bed?
Ouyang Minmin was also amazed when she saw Xue Feng!
He was the most beautiful man she had ever seen in her life…
However, she was not a complete fool; no matter how handsome Xue Feng was, she still favored the Third Prince.
Besides…
However, recalling how the Third Prince had looked at the woman on the bed, Ouyang Minmin was filled with rage.
So, her eyes quickly swept over the people in the room, reminding her of the purpose of their visit…
Her eyes flashed as she turned to the woman on the bed and declared, “You are guilty of killing Elder Luo.
By the imperial order of the Empress Dowager, all present here are to be brought back for questioning.
Those who resist will be executed!”
