Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort-Chapter 186: Neither You Nor I Will Yield (Part 9)

Boom——!

Once the inside story was reported, it instantly stirred up a great uproar.

The people, after their shock, all showed signs of anger.

Meanwhile, the five thousand Mu Family Army, including Mu Xiong, remained silent. But everyone could tell that a furious storm was brewing in that silence.

Qin Yiyao was amongst the Mu Family Army, but she didn’t reveal herself upon seeing her two Imperial Brothers.

After all, her identity was somewhat sensitive. Going to Yi City with Mu Qingge was already a bold move, and if she stepped out now, who knows how things would turn out.

Thinking back to the tragic and epic scene of the Mu Family Army at that time, a trace of sadness appeared in Qin Yiyao’s eyes.

She had personally experienced this battle. If it weren’t for Mu Qingge’s unpredictable strategy, and if she hadn’t acted quickly to use the Beast Clan corpses as sustenance, she might have perished in Yi City as well.

Therefore, she had no grounds to stop Mu Qingge from doing what she wanted to do.

In fact, if it weren’t for her identity, she would also want to personally deal with the main culprit!

The discussions around caused Qin Jinxiu’s face to look unpleasant. Han Sheng was his uncle, so if these rumors spread, how much impact would that have on him?

At the thought of these consequences, his gaze toward Mu Qingge held more resentment and a hint of murderous intent.

"Han Sheng failed in his duties as the Military Governor, and he has already been severely punished by Father upon returning." Qin Jinxiu said coldly.

"Oh? And how did Your Majesty severely punish him?" Mu Qingge pressed on.

Qin Jinxiu frowned, unwilling to answer.

But Mu Lianrong spoke up at this moment: "Your Majesty demoted him two levels, docked his salary for three years, and ordered him to reflect behind closed doors for one year." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Her words sparked even more anger among the crowd.

Yet, Mu Qingge laughed.

She laughed arrogantly, a laugh that made one’s heart ache. Suddenly turning back, Mu Qingge looked at Mu Xiong and asked with a smile, "Grandfather, look. The lives of tens of thousands of our Mu Family Army soldiers are worth only a demotion of two levels, three years’ salary, and one year of reflection."

Mu Xiong painfully closed his eyes, the bulging veins on his hand showing his current feelings.

"We won’t accept this—!"

Suddenly, the entire Mu Family Army shouted in unison.

"We won’t accept it! We won’t accept it!" The crowd also started to shout and wave their hands.

The smile faded from Mu Qingge’s beautiful face, and a sharp glint appeared in her clear eyes: "You don’t accept it, and neither does this Lord!" At this moment, she was so dazzling that people couldn’t look away.

Qin Jinhao was somewhat entranced, a thought arising in his mind: If only he were a woman, how wonderful would that be?

"What do you intend to do, Mu Qingge?" Qin Jinxiu shouted, his face looking unsightly.

Mu Qingge turned her gaze, the cold and mocking look falling on him: "The Crown Prince, who has always governed with benevolence and integrity, is it possible that because the culprit is your uncle, you want to shield him?"

Qin Jinxiu froze, feeling the hostile gazes around him, and forced himself to say, "Father has already severely punished him, don’t act recklessly!"

"Severely punished? Your so-called severe punishment, in my view, is not enough!" Mu Qingge’s gaze was as sharp as a blade: "Mo Yang, take men to invite the Imperial Uncle of Korea!"

"Yes!" Mo Yang stepped out to take the order, decisively and neatly leaving with a hundred-person Personal Guard.

Qin Jinxiu was panicked, looking towards Mu Xiong and shouting, "Old Marquess, Mu Qingge is acting so recklessly, won’t you intervene?"

Unfortunately, Mu Xiong just closed his eyes, pressed his lips tightly, and ignored him.

Mu Qingge gave Qin Jinxiu a mocking look, as if she were looking at an idiot.

The wrongful deaths of tens of thousands of Mu Family Army soldiers demand someone to pay. Could Han Sheng escape? Mu Qingge knew in her heart that the person behind it wasn’t Han Sheng, but that didn’t stop her from first collecting interest.
