Chapter 1508: Marquis Wan Is Well Aware

The Xiuluo Guard and the Imperial Guard soldiers are fighting each other, the scene is chaotic!

Jing Jia is tightly held in Bai Xilie’s arms: "Aren’t you going to intervene?!"

Bai Xilie frowns and says: "I think the Imperial Guard deserves a beating, no need to intervene, Marquis Wan knows what he’s doing, there won’t be any fatalities!"

As the Emperor, he knows very well what would happen if today’s events were to leak out.

The important thing is never that a Servant killed a palace Servant and destroyed the phoenix robe.

Rather, people might very likely speculate that the Servant couldn’t possibly have such courage, it must be the Princess behind it, because outsiders do not know that the so-called Imperial Concubine is actually Jing Jia herself.

Most likely, the public will just follow the worst speculation and use the Princess’s jealousy over her stepmother as gossip after every meal.

Even if it is eventually proven that this event is a slander, it wouldn’t matter.

People always only believe in the facts they’ve already decided in their hearts and won’t pay attention to any evidence.

So, Bai Xilie thinks, the Imperial Guard’s act of searching Ruizhu Palace without prior report must be punished!

He doesn’t need to take action, Marquis Wan will make them pay the price.

Qingmei pulls the already stunned Cai Ying aside.

Only to see Chu Ping’s neck held by the head of the Imperial Guards, both his hands are pulled by two Imperial Guards!

Seeing Chu Ping about to suffer, Cai Ying is anxious: "Sister Qingmei, what should we do!"

Qingmei, though a bit out of breath, remains very calm.

"Don’t be afraid! My husband is skilled, he won’t suffer!"

She was indeed correct.

Chu Ping seized the opportunity, suddenly raised his boot, flew across, and instantly broke free from the control of the Imperial Guards.

Lei Hu rushed over from the side, the two fighting shoulder to shoulder, punching fist to fist!

Feng Fuce protects Bai Zhi’er standing at the courtyard entrance, his cold figure as if a cold-sealed abyss.

Today, no one will leave through this door!

Bai Zhi’er shrinks in his embrace watching the fight in the courtyard.

At this moment, she notices from the corner of her eye, a stealthy figure heading to the corner, attempting to climb the wall to escape!

"Where are you running off to!" Bai Zhi’er coldly rebukes, suddenly waving her sleeve.

Strands of colorful ribbons invisible to mortals flew out, binding that person’s ankle, Bai Zhi’er pulls hard.

"Ouch!" That person falls to the ground, shouting out.

Feng Fuce immediately orders: "Catch her!"

The Xiu Luo Envoys promptly rearrange, some bring down the Imperial Guards, others rush up to press down the Palace Attendant trying to escape.

In the background of the crying out pain from the Imperial Guards, Bai Zhi’er and Feng Fuce step forward, cast their gaze down.

"Chief Aunt?" Bai Zhi’er squints suspiciously: "Why are you running?"

Yanhong, the Chief Aunt of the Imperial Affairs Bureau, covered in dirt from the fall, with a cut on her forehead.

Seeing Bai Zhi’er, the guilt and fear in her eyes are impossible to hide.

"This servant...this servant feared getting accidentally injured in their fight, so I wanted to leave first..." Yanhong stammers.

However, Feng Fuce, being keen sharp, immediately coldly says: "Lies, Lei Hu, bind her and interrogate severely."

"Yes!" Lei Hu and the Xiu Luo Envoys step forward, seize Yanhong, and bring her back to Xiuluo Guard.

Yanhong cries out in fear along the way: "Spare me, Marquis! This servant hasn’t committed any wrongdoing!"

Feng Fuce ignores her completely.

Chu Ping has already run to Qingmei’s side.

"Wife, are you alright?" He tenderly grips Qingmei’s hand, seeing tears still on her face, he uses his injured fingers to wipe them off again and again.
