Stubborn.

Just when Mu Yunyu wanted to say something else, Pei Xuan bowed and continued, "Your Majesty, do you have any other questions?"

"If not, please follow me to the Ministry of Justice. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and several jurors are waiting."

Mu Yunyu's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Pei Xuan in astonishment. How dare he speak to him like that?

Sooner or later, he would make Pei Xuan pay for his nonsense today.

"What if I don't go?"

Mu Yunyu actually knew that he had to go to court today, but he just wanted to teach Pei Xuan a lesson and make him recognize his own identity.

"Then I apologize for the offense."

As he spoke, Pei Xuan straightened his back and waved towards the door. In an instant, many people gathered around Mu Yunyu.

Mu Yunyu was so stunned that he opened his mouth wide but couldn't utter a word.

"you you……"

"You'd better wait for me, Pei Xuan." After saying that, Mu Yunyu flicked his sleeves and left.

These are the Yulin Army given to the Crown Prince by his father. No matter how arrogant he is, he has to know his place.

Pei Xuan bowed towards Mu Yunyu's back and said calmly, "I am waiting for you at the Ministry of Justice."

Yuwen Yuchao was in a stalemate, but Mu Yunyu still left, holding her belly with one hand and crying, "Prince——"

He shouted and rushed towards Mu Yunyu.

Although she and the prince did not have much affection for each other, since she was married, they were in the same boat. After all, the prince was the king of the palace.

If something happened to the prince, the palace would be finished.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunyu turned around and glanced at Pei Xuan before looking at Yuwen Yuchao.

The expression on his face also changed to a smile: "Princess, take good care of yourself and my prince in the palace and wait for my return."

In the court of the Ministry of Justice, several jurors looked at each other nervously. Only Mu Yunchen sat aside calmly, looking at the distance with a half-smile.

For the jury ministers, today is tantamount to putting their choices on the table. Supporting the Crown Prince and the Prince of He will be obvious today.

But no matter who you support, you will offend the other one today.

Therefore, they were all very uncomfortable sitting in the jury seats. Before the trial even started, several adults had already begun wiping their sweat from time to time.

As for why Mu Yunyu did not sit in the presiding judge's seat, it was because -

Qingning is right, avoid suspicion.

He was just an observer today, just an observer.

The presiding judge was Pei Xuan.

Only by letting Pei Xuan, a fair and selfless person who dares to offend anyone, to judge the case would it be credible.

When Mu Yunyu was invited to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, he saw Liang Bo kneeling on the ground covered in dust and dirt, and suddenly he felt dark.

In addition, the moment he came in, the families of the coachmen standing nearby fell to their knees, saying that it was Mu Yunyu who ordered the killing of their husbands.

Afterwards, he pretended to give them gifts to comfort them, and intentionally or unintentionally led them to cry and shout at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

In the end, it was the neighbor’s husband who survived and came back to tell them the truth, which made them return to the right path.

I almost hated the wrong good person!

Those people were just like the rotten eggs and vegetable leaves that they threw at Mu Yunchen, not caring at all about how noble anyone's status was.

They rushed forward, pointed at Mu Yunyu's nose and asked him to return their husbands' lives.

There was no telling how many hands were tearing, grabbing, twisting and beating Mu Yunyu.

Pei Xuan didn't know whether it was intentional or not. He didn't hear Mu Yunyu's repeated calls of "unruly citizen" and it took a long while before he banged the gavel.

The family members below then dispersed.

In the center of the court, Mu Yunyu was squatting on the ground, holding his head in his hands in a miserable state. If you looked closely, you could see several scratches on his neck.

His dignity and pride were gone at this moment.

Mu Yunyu was so angry that he wanted to attack immediately, but he finally held back.

No one is allowed to disrupt the court.

Even Mu Yunchen can't help.

Besides, he is just a prince.

With his remaining rationality, Mu Yunyu pretended to be calm and said, "Master Pei, I don't know why these unruly people suddenly turned against me. I didn't order the killing of those drivers."

"General Ao, who is guarding the palace gate, has already proved this to me."

Pei Xuan glanced at Mu Yunyu silently, then took out the testimony signed by Ao Zhishan and placed it in front of Mu Yunyu.

Mu Yunyu cried out in his heart that something was wrong and subconsciously turned his head to look at Liang Bo who was kneeling on the ground. Didn’t he ask him to destroy the testimony?

Why else?

But Liang Bo knew very well that he was a dying man and had long been disheartened. At this moment, he was not afraid of Mu Yunyu's gaze at all. Instead, he met him indifferently.

He had already asked the prince to send his family back home overnight, so that he would have nothing to worry about.

In his life, he was lucky enough to become an official, but his talent was not appreciated, so he developed a cunning and deceitful character.

I thought that being chosen by the Prince was a sign of having met a mentor, but unexpectedly, I was just a chess piece.

Mu Yunyu had no idea that Liang Bo had such a deep hatred for him, and he also had no idea that there was fluorescent candle powder on the dagger.

Mu Yunyu was still quibbling: "Master Pei, these unruly people, including Ao Zhishan, actually changed their testimony at will. I'm afraid their testimony cannot be trusted!"

"It's not that easy to convict me based on these."

Pei Xuan had guessed that he would say this, and deliberately kept the two coachmen who were rescued by Mu Yunchen until the end.

From the moment the two coachmen came to the court, fear finally appeared on Mu Yunyu's face and he fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Mu Yunchen stopped reading.

He shook his head slightly, stood up and walked outside.

The final outcome of the case is already predictable, and he is now going to pick up his Jiaojiao and take her home.

Mu Yunchen went to the prison to pick up Mu Peiyun in person. The person who opened the prison door was the same bailiff from last time, but the difference was that his hands were not shaking this time.

Ever since he first encountered the Crown Prince in prison, he had practiced opening the prison door and now he has mastered it to perfection.

Mu Peiyun stood in the prison, listening to the bell outside indicating the end of the case, and suddenly felt relieved.

"Qingning!"

His Highness is here.

A smile immediately appeared on Mu Peiyun's lips. He turned around and looked outside.

"Qingning, I'm here to take you home."
