Chapter 1534: Chapter 11: Spouses Reunited (Part 11)

When no one noticed, a vicious glint flashed in Bai Yan’s eyes.

To obtain that man, she would stop at nothing...

"Mother!"

Ye Sihuang leaped forward, standing in front of Mu Ruyue, his gloomy gaze fixed on Bai Yan before him. In that instant, a murderous intent ignited in him, and his eyes grew as cold as death...

"Let me end this woman’s life!"

"Hold on!"

Just then, an elderly voice slowly rose.

The priest slowly approached Mu Ruyue and the others under everyone’s gaze. His steps were strong and powerful, not at all resembling an old man’s...

"You want to stop me?"

Ye Sihuang sneered, "Anyone who tries to stop me will die!"

No one could insult his mother before him; this woman was forever his Achilles’ heel...

"Young master, please don’t be impulsive. Let’s discuss everything calmly. Until the truth is clarified, I do not wish for anyone to start a massacre here!"

These words were spoken to both Ye Sihuang and his mother, and also to Bai Yan.

He did not trust the words of the Prince Manor’s people. Of course, he could not allow anyone to kill those from the Prince Manor...

"Is the priest suggesting that I’m slandering?"

Bai Yan laughed coldly, her smile devoid of the usual gentleness, carrying a chill.

"Lady Bai Yan, I only wish to uncover the truth. Please do not misunderstand a good person, and this is the King’s matter. Even if they intend to harm the King, it should wait for the King to return for judgment!"

"Lord Priest! You are loyal to the King. Now that someone wants to harm the King, why do you protect these people? What’s your motive?"

After saying this, Bai Yan turned to the crowd present.

"Everyone, this matter was personally heard by my people from the Prince Manor. Whether you believe it or not is up to you, but my Prince Manor is the most loyal to His Majesty. Given my relationship with His Majesty, would I harm him?"

Except for the priest, no one questioned Bai Yan’s words.

At this moment, Mu Ruyue, who had remained silent, finally spoke.

"Lady Bai Yan, may I ask you a question?"

"Speak?"

"Can I ask, did your people from the Prince Manor really hear me say those words?"

Bai Yan nodded, "Indeed!"

"And because they overheard my words, I killed them, correct?" Mu Ruyue faintly curled her lips, a gleam in her eyes.

Bai Yan didn’t know what Mu Ruyue was up to but still nodded, "Yes, you killed my people from the Prince Manor."

"Everyone, you heard clearly too," Mu Ruyue smiled gently, "the maids from the Prince Manor inadvertently overheard my plot and were discovered by me. To prevent the plot from being exposed, I killed them. So, I’m very curious, since the maids have already died by my hand, how did Bai Yan hear about my plot? Could it be that her maids would communicate through dreams?"

Initially, no one considered this point, but upon hearing Mu Ruyue’s words, everyone was stunned.

Indeed, since the maids from the Prince Manor were silenced after overhearing a plot, how did Lady Bai Yan learn of those plans?

This... it doesn’t make sense at all.

Bai Yan’s face turned deathly pale, her eyes filled with panic.

She actually forgot about this point...

Just as she was about to say something in her defense, Ling Yun couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"Bai Yan, you hypocritical woman! You not only steal treasures and murder but also maliciously slander others this way! Truly, only a father like yours could raise a daughter like you! Compared to you, I am far superior! Only someone like my master could produce such an outstanding disciple like me!"
