Chapter 5197: 5.0949 Imprison Them All

The First Young Master Qin was startled, then quickly followed, grumbling along the way, "Hey, Second Brother, what are you going to her for again? I'm telling you, if you want to make the Stoic happy, you might as well be straightforward and just kill that woman."

"If you send fingers today and ears tomorrow, she really won't like it!"

"Her body is undergoing a third stage mutation."

"Exactly!" The First Young Master Qin spread his hands with a chuckle. "Otherwise, Father wouldn't have had her rescued, would he? To be honest, since you won't kill her, why not just do them a favor and let Mu Jinghong take her back? Then, the Stoic will definitely seek trouble with Mu Jinghong, not us. How about this idea I've given you, Big Brother?"

The Second Young Master ignored him, quickly walking away.

The First Young Master Qin stood there smiling, fanning himself with his small fan, muttering, "Doing this will only make you drift further apart." What do you take the Stoic for? Don't try to guess the Stoic's thoughts; you'll never guess right.

The Next Day

Zhaoguang gathered over a thousand disciples and sat in silent protest in front of the Jingzhao Mansion in Longyan City. They didn't do anything outrageous, just sat there quietly, silently protesting the Crown Prince's order to arrest their Saintess. This incident attracted countless onlookers from the streets and alleys. Anyone passing by the Jingzhao Mansion couldn't help but stop and look at the silently protesting Zhaoguang disciples. Everyone wanted to know how the Jingzhao Mansion would deal with them.

After all... The Saintess of Zhaoguang possessed incredible abilities, capable of saving people on the verge of death from corpse puppet bites. Yet, even so, she was still no match for His Highness the Crown Prince and was currently imprisoned in the Jingzhao Mansion's dungeon. The Saintess and her group were all detained on charges of causing unwarranted trouble.

From when the incident occurred yesterday until now, about seven or eight hours had passed. It was presumed that the Saintess of Zhaoguang wasn't having an easy time in prison.

It had rained in the morning. Although it was now dusk, the stone pavement on the streets was still quite damp. A low-key, luxurious carriage, pulled by four spirit horses, drove directly to the entrance of the Jingzhao Mansion and stopped.

The carriage curtain was gently swept open. Everyone who saw the person disembarking from the carriage couldn't help but be stunned.

They saw the Stoic Crown Princess, her small, exquisite face cold, slowly stepping down the stairs. Yesterday, the banquet lasted until evening, and the little Crown Princess was subsequently taken back to the Eastern Palace by His Highness the Crown Prince to rest. She slept until midday, and if Cai Xiu hadn't reminded her, she would have forgotten about the Saintess of Zhaoguang and her group locked up in prison.

Everyone's gaze fell upon the little Crown Princess's serene face, silently praising her immense beauty. It was just a pity that her serene, jade-like face was perpetually covered in a layer of frost, without a hint of a bright smile, making her seem utterly cold.

"Crown Princess," Cai Xiu supported her hand, her steps faltering slightly. The little Crown Princess followed her gaze, looking at the people kneeling on both sides of the Jingzhao Mansion. Her eyes flickered slightly, and the little Crown Princess said coldly:

"Since they are so concerned and worried for the Saintess, why not... imprison them all together, to keep their Saintess company?"

Everyone: ...

Good heavens, this little Crown Princess's way of thinking is truly completely different from the rest of the world. Seeing others staging a silent protest, she directly had them all arrested. This attitude clearly showed: I'll see how many people you Zhaoguang can send.
