These guards were no match for Zhang Liang, but they were evenly matched with Qi Heng.

"Who are you?" Qi Heng asked while beating him.

"When you meet the King of Hell, he will naturally tell you!" Zhang Liang was merciless.

Qi Heng was even more angry, and coupled with the guards' repeated attacks, Zhang Liang had a hard time fighting.

"If you want to be the first to stand out, first see if you have the ability to do so! This general does not need to know who you are, because a ghost who died tragically is not worthy of this general's knowledge!" Qi Heng smiled proudly.

Zhang Liang waved his wrist, and while Qi Heng was not paying attention, several darts flew out quickly. Qi Heng barely dodged them, but was still accidentally scratched on the face by the darts.

Zhang Liang took advantage of the chaos and disappeared into the crowd.

Qi Heng's hands were covered in blood and he had no time to take people to chase after the man, so he had to go to the clinic to bandage his wound first.

When Mu Zhou heard that something happened in the store, he hurried back, but he was still a step too late. Qi Heng had already left with his men.

After listening to the people in the store describe the whole incident, Mu Zhou rushed into the general's mansion again.

Du Ran also heard about this and ran to the store with Liu Xihua and Yu Chengfeng. When he heard that Mu Zhou had gone to find Qi Heng, his heart tightened and he hurried to the general's mansion again.

Unlike others who had some experience in kung fu, Du Ran really ran. When she was almost at the General's Mansion, her calf cramped and she couldn't move. But she had to go to the General's Mansion, so she had to let Liu Xihua and Yu Chengfeng carry her and keep walking.

Mu Zhou, who was catching people in the palace, turned around and saw Du Ran, who was in pain, being supported by two people. His originally angry face became sinister, like a ghost from the underworld who took lives.

"Qi Heng! How dare you attack the Queen? Today, you must die!" After a few moves by Mu Zhou, all the guards around Qi Heng were killed, and Qi Heng had several new wounds on his arms.

In order to save his life, Qi Heng wailed in pain: "This general... This general has never dared to hurt the princess! Please spare my life!"

Mu Zhou only believed what he saw with his own eyes. His eyes were red, and he wanted to stab the sword into Qi Heng's chest in the next second.

At the critical moment, Du Ran shouted: "Mu Zhou, be rational!"

Mu Zhou turned his head and looked at Du Ran: "Don't worry, Madam, I will avenge you right away!"

"Mu Zhou, I am an official appointed by the imperial court. Please spare me and we can talk it over!" Qi Heng was trembling with fear. Facing such an irrational Mu Zhou, force was indeed not a good choice. Qi Heng could only keep begging for mercy.

"This general is willing to double compensate for the losses in your store! This time... this time someone complained that the drinks in your store were fake, so this general went to investigate. I didn't intend to damage the things in the store, but who knew that a reckless man would come out and... Mu Zhou, if you don't believe me, you can go ask the servants in your store or the people at the door. I will never say a lie!" Qi Heng explained stutteringly, beads of sweat the size of beans constantly sliding down his forehead.

"Mu Zhou, don't kill anyone!" Du Ran's throat was already dry and painful when he was running, and now it became hoarse for some reason, and he sounded as if he was in great grief.

Mu Zhou slapped Qi Heng directly with his palm, and Qi Heng's jaw was dislocated instantly. He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.

"What on earth did you do to the Queen!" Mu Zhou was eager to protect his master, and he slapped Qi Heng again. One of Qi Heng's shoulders was dislocated, and his already distorted face twitched even more.

Liu Xihua seemed to understand something and whispered to Du Ran: "Brother Mu seems to think that the general hurt you."

Du Ran was stunned for a moment: "Do I look like someone who has been hurt?"

Liu Xihua nodded: "Very similar."

"It's broken!" Du Ran said as he quickly pulled his arm out of the two men's hands, then rubbed his calf which was still a little sore, trying to make himself look more energetic.

Yu Chengfeng stopped Du Ran: "Ran Ran, Qi Heng has been picking on people time and again, and he has bad intentions. He deserves to die."

"He deserves to die, but not in our hands!" Du Ran was anxious.

"Even if Qi Heng died, the emperor would not blame me."

"Once the emperor starts blaming us, it will be too late and we will all lose our heads!" Liu Xihua interjected.

This hit the nail on the head. Du Ran pushed Yu Chengfeng's arm away and ran over.

"Mu Zhou, Qi Heng didn't hurt me, don't be impulsive!"

"Your Majesty, please stop speaking for him." Mu Zhou expressed his disbelief.

"Really, I did this because I'm tired from running from the palace to the store, and then from the store to here. If they hadn't supported me, I would have fainted!" Du Ran lifted the sweaty strands of hair on his forehead to prove that what he said was true.

Qi Heng was speechless, but he was humming anxiously, trying to prove his innocence.

Mu Zhou temporarily let Qi Heng go, looked at Du Ran for a while, and was relieved after confirming that she was really not injured: "Madam, you were like that just now, I thought something was wrong!"

"In that case, Mr. Qi, I will spare your life today. Later, have someone pay double the loss of your shop to the palace, otherwise I will come to take your head tonight!" Mu Zhou put away his sword, kicked him again, and then left.

"Looking at the injury of Scumbag Qi, it will take at least half a month to heal. Now we can have some peace for a while. That's great!" Du Ran smiled.

Liu Xihua's pupils trembled: "My Lady Princess, you are not afraid of being beaten like this by the general, and you can still laugh?"

"What are you afraid of? You should be afraid of him, right?"

"What if the higher-ups send someone to punish us?" Liu Xihua would be scared awake even in his dreams.

"Are you so scared?" Mu Zhou sneered, "Why don't you just get out of here?"

"Brother Mu, that's not what you meant. Even though I'm scared, I still have my loyalty!"

"Chiefship of the Jianghu? Don't tarnish these four words!" Mu Zhou was speechless.

"Brother Mu, don't forget that you were poisoned last time. If I hadn't rescued you in time, would you still be able to beat Qi Heng now?" Liu Xihua expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Maybe I was fine originally, but you made me faint?" Mu Zhou didn't appreciate his kindness and continued to mock Liu Xihua, which made Liu Xihua very angry.

"Mu Zhou, don't say that. Although Doctor Liu is a little timid, his medical skills and character are still trustworthy." Du Ran acted as a peacemaker.

Liu Xihua nodded repeatedly: "The princess still understands me!"

"Tsk~~" Mu Zhou walked to the front on his own.

Apart from some damaged tables and chairs, there was not much loss in the store. However, Qi Heng said that there was something wrong with the drinks in the store, so Du Ran asked them to check it themselves and only felt relieved after making sure that there was no problem with the drinks.

"The Qi guy is just looking for trouble. The liquor in our store is sourced from the best quality. If he tries to make something out of nothing like he did last time, I will break his arm!" Mu Zhou said indifferently.

The store was delayed for half a day, and when it opened in the afternoon, there was a long line of people outside the store.
