However, the old prince was no longer soft-hearted this time.

If there was some conflict last time, this time they directly sent assassins to kill his future granddaughter-in-law. How could he tolerate this?

"Old Shui, Han'er is right. This matter is no longer just a personal grudge between our two mansions and the four families of the Qiao family and the General's Mansion. It is related to the reputation of our Great Yue Kingdom. I think the Jingzhao Prefecture has already had the results of the interrogation. The emperor will know about this matter soon. It's useless for you to beg me. You might as well think about how to minimize the impact on the Shui Mansion!"

"Your Majesty..."

Deputy General Shui sat on the ground in despair, with endless regret overwhelming him like a tide. The half-white hair on his head turned almost completely white in an instant, and he seemed to have aged by ten years in an instant.

It was not until this moment that Shui Bailian felt truly scared.

Seeing the old prince's attitude and her grandfather's condition, she finally realized how big a mess she had made this time, and even her grandfather could no longer protect her.

"Grandfather, please save Lian'er! Lian'er doesn't want to die! Lian'er also doesn't want to be exiled to the frontier. Grandfather, please save Lian'er!"

Seeing that her grandfather was just looking at her with sad eyes, Shui Bailian kowtowed to the old prince again:

"Grandpa Mo, you watched Lian'er grow up. Lian'er is not a bad person. I didn't want to kill that village girl... Qiao Ran. I was just... just... just angry that she took the prince away, so I wanted to teach her a lesson. I really didn't want to kill her! Please, Grandpa Mo, be clear! Please go to the emperor and plead for Lian'er. Lian'er really didn't mean it!"

The old prince looked at her coldly without saying a word, without a trace of mercy for this person who wanted to hurt his future granddaughter-in-law.

Seeing the old prince's angry eyes, Shui Bailian's heart shrank. She dared not beg for mercy anymore. She turned to hug Mo Beihan's thighs, but he blocked her with disgust by picking up the heavy chair next to him.

"Brother Prince... Prince, you..."

Shui Bailian wanted to cry and beg, but Butler Zheng had already brought in a team of detectives.

The captain of the police team bowed to the old prince:

"Your Highness, excuse me! I am here on the orders of the prefect to arrest Shui Bailian, the suspect who sent the murderer to kill someone."

The old prince waved his hand:

"Take her away!"

The captain raised his hand and several detectives rushed towards Shui Bailian, chained her and were about to take her away.

Shui Bailian was so frightened that she screamed and dodged, but she was surrounded by the police, and there were guards from the palace guarding outside the door, so how could she escape?

"Grandfather, save me! Grandfather..."

While Deputy General Shui was silent, Shui Bailian was taken away by the bailiffs.

Deputy General Shui's spirit and energy collapsed at once, and he walked out of the palace in a daze.

"Ugh!"

Looking at his old subordinate's hunched back, the old prince let out a long sigh.

Spoiling a child is like killing him. Lao Shui, who was always shrewd, was ultimately badly harmed by his doted granddaughter.

If nothing unexpected happens, the emperor will definitely put all the blame for intercepting and slaughtering the Qiao family on Shui Bailian.

If Shui Bailian doesn't have a good ending, Shuifu will also suffer. The wealth and glory that they have accumulated with great difficulty will disappear because of this incident.

"Grandfather, both Prince Ping and the Emperor have sent people, but the Emperor will definitely cover it up for himself and Prince Ping. What do you think we should do next?"

Mo Beihan didn't care at all about the fate of Shuifu.

No one in the Shui family can escape blame for Shui Bailian's arrogance and domineering behavior.

He only cared about the safety of the Qiao family. Both the Emperor and the Prince of Peace wanted to take action against the Qiao family, so he had to make plans.

The old prince shook his head and sighed:

"Han'er, I know you are upset, and I didn't expect the emperor to be so narrow-minded. Alas! I can only send more secret guards to secretly protect the Qiao family in the future. If you can't swallow this breath, find a chance to deal with Prince Ping, but don't go too far."

The old prince could be said to understand his grandson's temper very well.

Knowing that he would definitely not be able to resist attacking King Ping, she could not stop him and did not want to stop him, so she could only advise him to be more careful.

"Grandfather, I know."

Mo Beihan agreed, the coldness in his eyes was like ten thousand years of ice.
