Mu Yunyao laughed, and her eyes shone brightly. Now, no matter if it was her or Yue Yang, both of them were carrying too many things on them, and these things could very possibly affect them greatly in the future.
A year's time was more than enough time to resolve most of these matters. By that time, if their intentions hadn't changed, they would naturally be able to safely stay together.
Seeing her current state, even King Yue could not help but laugh. Her smile carried an indescribable power, causing the surrounding scenery to involuntarily brighten up. Even if it was just for this smile, he was willing to wait for this one year.
When Mu Yunyao and King Yue returned to the camp, the imperial guards immediately surrounded them. The Second Prince, King Yu, had an unsightly expression on his face, and when he saw that the imperial guards were going to detain the two of them, he quickly stopped them, "Impudent! Imperial Father still hasn't come to a conclusion, is it your turn to make a move?"
Mu Yunyao's gaze trembled as a bad premonition arose in her heart.
King Yu walked up and quickly said, "Meng Handong of the Meng family is dead. At this moment, Meng Xi brought his corpse to the royal father and reported that you killed Meng Handong. The arrow on his body carried your mark."
To make it easier to distinguish between the prey, the arrows used in the hunting grounds were marked with various markings, so as not to cause a dispute while counting the prey.
Yue Yang nodded his head, his expression no longer anxious: "Thank you second royal brother for the reminder."
King Yu patted his shoulder and turned to look at Mu Yunyao. "You guys be careful. Hurry to royal father's tent."
Mu Yunyao walked forward a few steps before suddenly turning around. "Your Highness, I wonder if I can trouble you to do something?"
King Yu was slightly surprised, but he still nodded his head. He waved his hand to signal the guards to back away, "Speak."
Mu Yunyao walked up and said softly. Under the joyful gaze of the other party, she turned around and followed the steps of the Titan King.
At this moment, Meng Handong's corpse was placed within the Emperor's tent.
Mu Yunyao followed King Yue in, then after saluting, she shot her gaze over. Yue Wang shot three arrows in total. The first arrow cut off Meng Handong's hair, the second shot through his palm, and the third shot through his left shoulder. In other words, there were only two wounds on Meng Handong's body, and none of them were fatal. And …
Right now, an arrow was nocked in his chest, killing him instantly.
The emperor didn't tell them to get up, instead, his aura was extremely oppressive, "Fourth elder, Meng Xi accused you of murdering someone, and I had someone inspect it. Your mark was on the arrow that took Meng Han Dong's life."
"The arrow in his hand and shoulder was shot by me. As for the arrow in his chest, which took his life, it has nothing to do with me. Father, please inspect it clearly." Meng Xi wiped his tears with his sleeves and said with a sorrowful expression, "Your Highness, although Han Dong was impulsive and a bit mischievous, he is still a good boy. Even if he offended you in some way, you shouldn't torture him like this and even kill him in the end.
It's really too cruel. "
Yue Yang turned his head. "Then according to what Senior Meng said, no matter what Meng Handong has done, I should understand?"
"This official has no intention of doing so …"
"Since he didn't mean it that way, how would I know if Meng Handong deserves to die?"
Meng Xi did not expect King Yue to speak so rudely. His breath caught in his throat and he paused for a moment before speaking, "Han Dong definitely knows what he's doing. He's always abiding by etiquette …"
Meng Xi hurriedly shook his head and kowtowed to the Emperor. "Your Majesty, this humble subject definitely does not intend to do that."
"Meng Handong shot an arrow at your lordship with the intention to assassinate you. Fortunately, Miss Mu helped me out and saved my life, which is why I didn't kill you. I only shot his hand and shoulder and gave him a small warning. Does Senior Meng think that your lordship has done wrong?"
King Yue bowed towards the Emperor, "Imperial Father, someone has deliberately killed Meng Handong, framing this son. He intends to put this son to death, and would like Imperial Father's help to uphold justice."
Looking at the imposing Ning Junyue, a complicated look flashed across the emperor's eyes. "You say that someone is framing him?"
"That's right. Father, please think about it carefully. Your son's identity is the prince of the imperial court after all. It's easy for me to make things difficult for Meng Handong, even if I have to kill him. Why take the risk and secretly kill him?" "Your Majesty, this is all a fabrication by the King of the Wings. The arrow on Han Dong's body is an indisputable fact, could it be that the case is only heard from where it is reasonable, and not seen if there is evidence or not?"
"
The emperor frowned, "Fourth, do you have anything else to say?"
Mu Yunyao suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, this humble girl has something to say."
"You?" The Emperor swept his cold gaze across the place, and the emotions deep within his eyes were inexplicable.
"Your majesty, this humble girl was present at that time. It can be said to be the only witness."
"Oh? "Then tell me, what kind of proof can you make?"
"Your majesty, this humble daughter can testify. Your highness King Yue is innocent." Feeling the increasing pressure in the tent, Mu Yunyao's expression did not show the slightest trace of panic as she spoke in a clear voice.
"Where is the evidence?" "The evidence is on Meng Handong." Mu Yunyao pointed at Meng Handong's corpse. "The arrow that killed Meng Handong hit him squarely in the chest, from the back to the chest. The emperor allowed the imperial physician to examine the other two wounds on his body. Both arrows were shot from the front, from the wounds …
"It's easy to tell."
Meng Xi was unconvinced. "Han Dong sensed the killing intent of the Titan King, he must have wanted to turn around and flee. Don't tell me that he is still here, waiting to be killed by the Titan King? An arrow in the chest must have been shot while he was running! "
Mu Yunyao nodded, "Why do you say that? It's as if Lord Meng saw it with his own eyes."
"I was only guessing, so I didn't see it with my own eyes."
"Didn't you say just now that the case was based on evidence and not a fabrication?" Mu Yunyao tossed the words that Meng Xi had said back to him. "I'm a witness at the scene. I've personally seen what I said."
Meng Xi angrily gritted his teeth. "You …" Who knows if your words are true or not? " Since King Yue favored her, she would naturally help King Yue!
At this moment, the Second Prince, King Yu, quickly walked in. "This son greets Imperial Father. I have found evidence to prove Fourth Brother's innocence." The emperor raised his head, "Present!"
