The prince kept his mouth shut and dared not speak.

"Excuse me, why did the queen let this guilty minister get up? Could it be that the prince is wrong to speak for Ai's family?" The queen mother said softly, with elegance and majesty.

Mu Qingfeng also smiled softly.

"Didn't that white-haired old man admit that he sealed the mouths of the people in the city? If that's the case, Prime Minister Zhao is innocent, so can he be released without guilt?" Mu Qingfeng said while talking. He picked up the teacup and drank the tea gracefully.

The queen mother looked at Mu Qingfeng coldly, and finally she could only cast her sharp eyes on the white-haired old man.

"Master, see if you can arrest this person." The queen mother said very respectfully.

The masked man in black glanced at the queen mother and smiled disdainfully.

"You can't catch this person!" She very bluntly dispelled the Queen Mother's expectations.

"Then ask master for help." The queen mother has never been so humble before.

There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of the masked man's mouth.

"I won't catch him, but... I will kill him!" The masked man's long sword pierced straight into the white-haired old man's chest.

Everyone in the audience was shocked.

"Why didn't you hide just now?" The masked man in black's tone was obviously softened.

The white-haired old man smiled wryly, he didn't even think about hiding, what he owed her might only be repaid with his life.

"I hope that after my death, your hatred will be relieved a little." The white-haired old man's face gradually turned pale.

Qingluan was shocked, and hurried to take the pulse of the white-haired old man, there was still a trace of vitality, as long as there is vitality, there should be hope.

"You take this first!" Qingluan quickly took out a pill from his arms and threw it into the mouth of the white-haired old man.

She quickly sprinkled some medicinal powder on the white-haired old man's wound.

The queen mother was overjoyed when she saw the dying white-haired old man.

"Come here, let the Ai family take this criminal who knows how to live or die." The queen mother seemed to see happiness waving to herself.

"Stop!" Mu Qingfeng flatly refused.

The Queen Mother looked at Mu Qingfeng with a deep smile.

"This person has already admitted that he sealed the mouths of the people in the city, what else can the queen say?" The queen mother felt that they were powerless now.

Mu Qingfeng smiled and looked at the masked man in black.

"What about her? What is the crime of killing on the spot?"

The Empress Dowager's smile deepened. "This old man was guilty first, and he refused to arrest him without a fight, so she made a move. There is nothing wrong with that. Let the Ai family arrest him." The queen mother said coldly.

The white-haired old man was dragged down by them.

Qingluan was always worried, if something happened to him in prison alone, no one would know, would the consequences be serious?

"I ordered him to seal the mouths of the people in the city, so I am also guilty!" Qingluan had no choice but to admit the matter, now that the white-haired old man was seriously injured, she wanted to save him.

"Don't you think too well of yourself, can you admit this crime casually?" Sikong Chen was in a hurry, how could this Qingluan be so smart all her life, she was so confused for a while, how could she dare to admit such a serious crime, Is she really not afraid of death?

Qingluan knew that Sikong Chenyun was doing it for her own good, but she had no other choice now, she didn't want to see this white-haired old man die...
