Chapter 3480: 4.1080 Do You Want to Die?

Alright, it seemed the little Crown Princess had already warned this individual.

She had repeatedly asked him if he wanted a unique and unusual way to die, but alas, he hadn't listened.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh and shake their heads.

Then, they heard the Crown Princess say coldly, "Send the Zhou family into exile in the harsh, bitter lands of the Northwest."

"This life, they are never to return to Mokyo City."

Zhou Yuan collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at the poker-faced Crown Princess, who was utterly emotionless. He mumbled, "No, you can't do this to us! You can't."

Qiao Mu glanced at him. "Oh? You don't want to be exiled? So, you want a quicker death?"

"Colluding with the enemy, inviting wolves into our home, harboring enemies!" Qiao Mu's cold, desolate voice, word by word, clearly fell into the ears of the Zhou family.

"Don't want exile? Do you want to die?"

Zhou Yuan's mother's eyes widened in horror. She quickly crawled forward and covered her son Zhou Yuan's mouth with her hand.

At this moment, she finally realized how foolish she had been.

Looking at the little Crown Princess's retreating figure, the old woman opened her mouth but couldn't utter a sound for a long time.

She dared not make a fuss again. The little Crown Princess was clearly a type who responded to softness but not hardness. If she dared to cause trouble in front of her again, her outcome would only be even more bleak and tragic.

Thinking of this, the entire Zhou family, like defeated roosters, hung their heads and were escorted away.

Pu Ruolan sighed in relief, secretly clasping hands with her mother, Qiao Wenxiu.

In the future, with this family gone from the capital, their lives should be much smoother.

At least they wouldn't have to face this disgusting family constantly anymore.

However...

Pu Ruolan sighed, looking back at her sister-in-law. Her delicate and weak sister-in-law was truly pitiful. Life in the harsh, bitter lands of the Northwest would likely be difficult.

Qiao Wenxiu shook her head and also sighed, saying, "Miss Gao is truly unlucky."

A perfectly good rich young lady would now have to follow the Zhou family and be exiled to the harsh, bitter lands of the Northwest.

However, Qiao Wenxiu merely sighed briefly, then quickly put away that occasional hint of sympathy.

To put it bluntly, these people were all reaping what they sowed!

As for her and her daughter, they only needed to live their own lives well from now on. There was no need to dwell on other matters.

That evening, the palace banquet hosted by the King was very lively. All the court officials and their families gathered together, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Nothing strange or unexpected happened until the banquet ended late at night.

This made the anxious adults sincerely shed tears of sympathy for themselves.

They had truly been terrified of "banquets with ill intentions."

They still remembered how, in the past, whenever the King held a banquet, there would always be various kinds of trouble.

Today's palace banquet was truly smooth and pleasant. There was only one small interlude during which Tenth Princess Mo Li offered a toast to the Crown Princess and accidentally spilled wine on the Crown Princess.

Other than that, the entire banquet passed without incident, so peacefully that these adults could hardly believe their eyes.

After the banquet, Qiao Mu and the Crown Prince led the entire Qiao family back to the East Palace.

Along the way, Mo Lian was frowning, and Qiao Mu couldn't help but look at him curiously. "Why are you always frowning?"

"Today, Mo Li deliberately spilled wine on you while toasting."
