Chapter 5388: Gloating

Su Xitao was already harboring malicious intent. When she saw the flowers and plants touched by the powder instantly wither and die in a small patch, she couldn't contain her curiosity and automatically stepped forward to inquire.

The rest of the matter, he barely even had to explicitly state it; Su Xitao walked right into the trap herself, proceeding step by step exactly as they had envisioned.

Long Yun truly didn't understand why Mo Xikang was so angry. His own sister was foolish and dull, yet he had the nerve to repeatedly blame others for framing her. If Su Xitao hadn't consistently harbored resentment towards the little Crown Princess, wishing she could put her to death, why would she have collected all those bottles and jars?

If his sister had even a tiny bit of intelligence, she wouldn't have believed his words and actually taken those bottles of poison powder and insects, stuffing them all onto herself, intending to secretly use them against the Crown Princess.

Therefore, Su Xitao's current predicament was nobody's fault but her own.

Prince Zheng tightly clenched his fist, unable to resist a low roar. "Young Master Er, now everything is as you wished. My Prince Zheng's residence is exposed, and soon the reputation of treason will fall upon me! The matter of the entire Prince Zheng's residence colluding with Heavenly Fate is about to be made public."

"But what good does doing this do you?"

"If I were in the imperial court, hidden in the shadows, at least in the short term, I could still offer some help, couldn't I?" Prince Zheng, Mo Xikang, said in a low, gritted voice.

Now, everything was ruined! It was said that from the East Palace, a pile of bottles and jars were found on Tao'er, used to concoct Basic Mutation Liquid. This matter was beyond refutation; Prince Zheng's residence colluding with Heavenly Fate was now set in stone.

Young Master Er Qin gave him a cold smile. "Prince Zheng, you can't possibly truly believe that your individual actions alone could overthrow the Mo clan's empire, can you?"

"Leaving aside that the Emperor isn't so easily fooled, you wouldn't even be able to get past the Crown Prince."

"What's more, the Emperor still has several close brothers alive."

"This young master has calculated it for you; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to be your turn to ascend to a high position." Young Master Er Qin's eyes coldly swept over him. "Prince, the tricks you used to fool my father, perhaps you shouldn't try them on this young master."

Prince Zheng was dumbfounded, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

"What exactly do you want to say?"

"This young master saw you hesitating, unable to make a decision repeatedly, so I made a choice for you."

Prince Zheng, Mo Xikang, stared at Young Master Er's cold, sharp eyes, and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

"See? Isn't it quite good now?"

"Prince, the Crown Prince's subordinates, escorting the Princess Consort, have forced their way through the main gate."

Mo Xikang's face turned ashen with anger. He glared hatefully at Young Master Er Qin. "Now that my identity is exposed, with Mo Lian's methods, he will definitely not let me go."

"That's natural."

Mo Xikang turned his head to glare at Long Yun, who stood to the side. The latter actually nodded in strong agreement, saying with a smile, "Your sister, in her wild fantasy, wanted to poison and harm Qiao Qiao. With his personality, it's naturally impossible for him to spare your entire family."

Mo Xikang was so choked with rage that he felt a complete blockage in his chest. He wished he could kill this detestable person before him with a single sword. Since he knew the matter would be so serious, how could he still have the audacity to make such a joke, directly pushing his sister into the Ministry of Justice's prison, and pushing the entire Prince Zheng's residence into an inescapable hell?

Long Yun had already reverted, no longer looking like the old woman.
