”Since you saw her leave, why didn't you say anything?” Zhang Heng's pupils contracted. With a sharp gaze, she said with a cold tone.

”I, I …” Zhang Heng had always been gentle towards others, but this was the first time the Minister had seen Zhang Heng's cold aura, and he couldn't even say a single word.

”Alright, Zhang Heng, he didn't do it on purpose.” 's companion at the side saw the heavy atmosphere, he extended his hand and pulled at Zhang Heng's arm, indicating him to let the matter rest.

After Zhang Heng heard this, he looked coldly at the official and turned to look at the officials: ”Send them off first.”

”Zhang Heng, are you going to abandon us all just to find her?” Seeing that, Mu Xu took the lead and spoke, her voice carried warning.

”In my heart, none of you can defeat her.” Zhang Heng's eyes drooped slightly as he suppressed the emotions in his eyes. After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the direction of the emperor.

Seeing that, one of the court officials extended his hand, pointed at Zhang Heng and scolded: ”Zhang Heng, the Emperor wants you to escort us out. If you leave now, you will be disobeying the imperial edict! Be careful that I may lay a finger on you in front of the Emperor! ”

”If you want to sue, sue.” Zhang Heng said as he disappeared from Wen Chen's sight with a tap of his feet.

Seeing that Zhang Heng did not even put him in his eyes, the official could not help but complain to the crown prince: ”Crown Prince, Zhang Heng is too arrogant!”

”Say less. Maybe when he comes back, he will become a celebrity in front of royal father. We cannot afford to offend him.” Mu Hong was even calmer than Wen Chen.

Mo Ranran was heading in the direction in which royal father left, so she should be going to find royal father. If Zhang Heng were to go find Mo Ranran, then he would naturally meet royal father as well.

At that time, even he wouldn't dare to offend her.

Wen Chen was not stupid, he understood what was going on after a little more, he looked at the direction Zhang Heng left and did not speak anymore, he only cursed Zhang Heng in his heart.

And at this time, on the other side, the black clothed man appeared from all directions, and slowly forced Mu Ling into their encirclement.

Mu Ling looked at the black clad men who were slowly approaching them, glanced at Tao Shan who was beside them, and slowly spoke: ”Are you afraid of death?”

”Don't be afraid, this subordinate has already disregarded life and death since the day I met master.” When Tao Shan was still Dark Guard, he was already prepared to die for the emperor.

”It was I who implicated you.” If Tao Shan hadn't followed him, he probably wouldn't have been reduced to his current state.

”This subordinate has never regretted following master before. If master had not been here, then Tao Shan would not have been here today.” He never regretted following the Emperor.

The leading man in black looked at Mu Ling who was trapped in the center and slowly said: ”Mu Ling, as long as you give up resisting, I can release your subordinates.”

Hearing that, Mu Ling glanced at the few guards, his eyes flashed, and just as he was about to speak, his hand was grabbed by Tao Shan.

”This subordinate vows to protect His Majesty to the death, and will not live on his own!” In Tao Shan's eyes, Mu Ling was his sky, if his sky was no longer there, then he would no longer have the thought of living.

The imperial guards at the side also spoke up, ”We, your subordinates, vow to protect the Emperor to the death. We will not live alone!” There was not a trace of fear in his voice, only the bravery of a soldier.

”Since all of you want to die so much, this young master will grant you that wish.” The leading black clothed man made an offensive gesture, and the surrounding black clothed men immediately rushed towards Mu Ling.

Just as the group of men in black was about to attack, numerous concealed weapons were shot towards the men in black.

Almost all of the men in black brandished their swords to block it, and the concealed weapon immediately exploded. The powder within the weapon instantly scattered in all directions.

”My eyes.”

”What the hell is this thing!”
