Chapter 5198: 5.0950 Overcrowded
No matter how many people came, they would be detained without mercy. The little Crown Princess was no ordinary person; she wouldn't indulge them.
The Zhaoguang disciples, who had been sitting quietly and not causing trouble, were all stunned. They looked blankly in the direction of the Crown Princess, almost believing they had misheard.
"Register all these people, their cultivation level, their spiritual power, and register them clearly," Qiao Mu said faintly, stepping towards the Jingzhao Mansion. She coldly added, "Another day, send them to Qishan Spirit Mine to excavate ore."
"They're all so idle, so give them something to do."
"Yes!" The hidden guards around the little Crown Princess bowed their heads, stifling their smiles. Are these Zhaoguang people stupid or what? Provoking the little Crown Princess's patience, is that something you can just do casually? Now they're immediately out of luck.
The Zhaoguang disciples, both male and female, who had been sitting, were also dumbfounded. Just as they were about to stand up in protest, they heard the little Crown Princess say coldly, "If there is any resistance, kill them without mercy."
As her words fell, hundreds of figures darted out from all directions, forming a tight, well-defended formation, their gazes coldly fixed on the restless Zhaoguang disciples.
Everyone: ...
Yesterday, during the little tiger's hundred-day banquet, Qiao Mu had already suppressed a belly full of anger. Today, if they dared to provoke her again, she would make sure they all suffered!
"Your Highness, please allow me to speak." A slightly older Zhaoguang disciple stood up and bowed to Qiao Mu. "Our purpose in coming here is not to oppose the court, nor to trouble Your Highness."
"With just you, can you trouble this Crown Princess?" Qiao Mu retorted unceremoniously, "A joke."
The person was immediately choked and rendered speechless.
Indeed... who could possibly trouble the Crown Princess?
"Yesterday, this Crown Princess did not wish for blood to stain the hundred-day banquet! Today, there are no such considerations," she said coldly. "Since you people wish to follow your Saintess, then this Crown Princess shall grant your wish."
"No, Crown Princess, no... it's not like that." The older Zhaoguang disciple wanted to say more, but the little Crown Princess waved her hand impatiently.
"If you don't believe me, you can try to resist," the Stoic's cold gaze swept over everyone. "And see if this Crown Princess can do anything to you."
Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to speak. Even the onlookers dispersed like birds and beasts, obediently returning to their homes and mothers. What kind of joke was this? If they continued to watch, they might accidentally be considered Zhaoguang members and get arrested too. Not every spectacle could be blindly watched; at least in their impression, the Crown Princess's spectacles were not pleasant to watch...
"Take them away!" You Ba raised a hand, and a group of hidden guards immediately rushed forward, capturing all the Zhaoguang disciples and escorting them into the Jingzhao Mansion.
When Cao Juetou, the Prefect of Jingzhao, rushed out upon hearing the commotion, he could only look at the little Crown Princess with a bitter, worried face. He deliberated repeatedly, then rubbed his hands pitifully. "Your Highness, forgive me. This, so many people, our Jingzhao Mansion's prison, it really... it can't hold them all."
"How about transferring them to the Ministry of Justice's dungeon??" He tried to discuss it with the little Crown Princess. Prefect Cao Juetou's old face was drawn with worry.
