When Princess Jiarou saw Ning Ziqing trying to resist, a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes: "How dare you disobey my order? If you hurt my beloved dog, I will pay for it with your life! You will die today." "

Ning Ziqing's face did not change when she heard this, the corners of her lips raised slightly, revealing an uninhibited smile: "In the eyes of the princess, is a human life worse than a dog? You are so wanton and reckless, it is really disgusting!" on her face His expression was calm, but his tone revealed an unyielding tone.

"You, a despicable person, have no qualifications to be compared with this princess's pet. It's really ridiculous!" Princess Jiarou spoke arrogantly, staring at Ning Ziqing with a cold gaze, "Today, this princess will grant you death, which is considered right. Your reward is due!”

Princess Jiarou's words caused an uproar, and the surrounding guests became increasingly dissatisfied with Princess Jiarou's arrogance and arrogance, thinking that she would only use her power to bully the weak.

After Huo Yunjue heard her wild remarks, he was furious and immediately scolded her: "Jiarou, no matter how arrogant and unreasonable you are, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

"You dare to threaten me, do you think I am afraid of you? You are just an unfavored prince, and I will not be threatened by you. Who do you think you are!" Princess Jiarou sneered disdainfully, The tone was full of ridicule towards Huo Yunjue.

"You're so presumptuous!" the enraged Huo Yunjue roared.

His face was as solemn as iron, with unspeakable anger on his face, and his eyes were filled with blazing anger, as if he wanted to devour Princess Jiarou in his eyes.

Princess Jiarou was shocked by his voice, and her heart trembled. She tried her best to maintain her composure, and a trace of panic could not help but appear in her eyes.

"What's going on!" Qi Guozheng was talking to Concubine Qi in the main hall, but was disturbed by the sudden noise here, so he hurried over.

Huo Yunjue caught a glimpse of Duke Qi's arrival, turned his eyes angrily to him, and scolded sternly: "Duke Qi, is this how you treat guests in your house?"

Huo Yunjue looked around, his eyes as cold as a knife, pointing at the ferocious dog on the grass, his voice filled with undeniable majesty.

There was an aura of imperial power flowing around him, as if he was destined to rule the world.

"Your Highness, Fourth Highness, is there any misunderstanding? The veteran just arrived here and is not sure what happened." Qi Guogong explained humbly.

Huo Yunjue's expression was stern, with a gleam of contempt in his eyes. He took a deep look at Qi Guogong, with strong anger and dissatisfaction in his tone:

"Your precious daughter actually released a vicious dog on this festive day to intentionally hurt people and take human life lightly! This is the first crime. She spoke arrogant words to His Highness. I am committing the following crime! This is the second crime."

"The Duke of Qi teaches his daughter to be careless and behaves wildly, and she is in vain! This is the third crime. If you, Duke of Qi, had not allowed her to do this, how could she be so arrogant and ignorant of the bounds of heaven and earth? If she causes a big disaster in the future, how can she be worthy of His Majesty's favor!"

Huo Yunjue clearly and forcefully stated all of Princess Jiarou's crimes. His words made the atmosphere at the scene extremely tense, and everyone began to talk about it.

"You're talking nonsense!" Princess Jiarou wanted to argue, but was interrupted domineeringly by Huo Yunjue.

"you shut up!"

"My Highness will definitely tell His Majesty what happened today! If you have any objections, you can go into the palace with His Highness to meet His Majesty and confront him face to face!" Huo Yunjue said firmly. He stood there with a majestic look, as if he was invincible. The king of aggression.

When the Duke of Qi heard this, his body trembled slightly. He was very surprised when faced with Huo Yunjue's accusation.

However, he responded quickly: "Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, please calm down. Jiarou is young and ignorant, and I will discipline him severely."

"Today she offended His Highness Fourth Highness. It was really due to the veteran's negligence and improper discipline. I hope His Highness Fourth Highness can forgive her."

Although the Duke of Qi spoke humbly, he did not beg for mercy too humbly.

After hearing Duke Qi's response, Huo Yunjue still had a sulky expression on his face.

He did not show his approval of Duke Qi, and seemed to want to further investigate Princess Jiarou's crimes.

Huo Yunjue's face was stern and he looked at Qi Guogong with sharp eyes.

"This matter is not that simple!" Huo Yunjue said in a stern tone, "The mistakes made by your Qi family are not just about Jiarou, but also about your hospitality and the way you solve problems as hosts. .”

Huo Yunjue said angrily: "My Highness cannot tolerate Jia Rou's behavior of wantonly hurting people and indifference to the lives of guests. Your Highness will not be able to enjoy the birthday banquet of Duke Qi today, so I will say goodbye."

Huo Yunjue's tone was firm. After speaking, he motioned for Ning Ziqing to leave with him.

At this time, Concubine Qi stood up and defended: "Your Highness, what happened today was purely an accident. Jiarou did not intend to hurt Miss Ning San."

"They had a quarrel just now, and many people were present to witness this scene. How can you put all the responsibility on Jiarou alone? It's not fair!"

"Are you trying to excuse Jiarou?" Huo Yunjue stopped and turned to face Concubine Qi.

"She clearly knew that the third lady was afraid of dogs, so she deliberately led the ferocious dog close to tease her, and lured the ferocious dog to attack the third lady. If the third lady had not protected herself, what we might have seen now would be a corpse."

Huo Yunjue pointed to the guests bitten by fierce dogs and continued: "Look at those people bitten by fierce dogs, do you still think this should be regarded as a simple accident? What Jiarou did is simply a crime. No mercy!"

Huo Yunjue's sharp words left Concubine Qi speechless. She knew that now the Qi family was in the wrong and she had to show her attitude to solve the problem.

Concubine Qi took a deep breath, trying to calm the panic and anger in everyone's hearts, and then said sincerely: "This happened, and Duke Qi and I both blame ourselves. We will provide medical treatment and compensation for those who were bitten. .”

Although her words eased some of the situation, the atmosphere at the scene was still very tense.

Huo Yunjue seemed to be dissatisfied with her solution. He asked, "I dare to ask, how should Princess Jiarou deal with it?"

When Concubine Qi heard Huo Yunjue's question, her expression changed slightly, and she looked a little embarrassed and hesitant.

The scene fell into silence, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

When the Duke of Qi heard Huo Yunjue's reluctance, he frowned slightly and felt a little dissatisfied.

But he knew that now was not the time to argue, and he had to deal with the matter calmly.

So he bowed deeply to Huo Yunjue and said, "Your Highness, the Qi family bears unshirkable responsibility for what happened today. Please rest assured that I will strictly discipline my daughter and will not let her do it again."

After hearing this, Huo Yunjue sneered. Duke Qi made it clear that he wanted to protect Princess Jiarou.

He knew that this issue would ultimately need to rely on Emperor Yao's ruling to be satisfactorily resolved.

"Duke Qi, in that case," Huo Yunjue narrowed his eyes and looked at Duke Qi, "His Royal Highness should go to the palace to meet His Majesty and ask Your Majesty to personally decide whether Princess Jiarou is guilty or not. Only by following His Majesty's judgment can we convince the public. "

Then he looked at the crowd around him and said, "I wonder who would be willing to follow His Highness into the palace to bear witness?"

"I am willing to enter the palace with His Highness Fourth Highness. I was also present when Princess Jiarou provoked Miss Third." Cao Yanyan stood up.

"I'm willing too." Song Yu also stood up.

Seeing someone responding, a bitten young man walked forward with a limping leg, "Fourth Highness, I am willing too."
