Chapter 2640: Chapter 2640: Law and Order of the Nation?

Why, why did they have to come to Ying City to trouble her?

"Consort Wen, who are these people, you... Ah!"

The Fifteenth Prince came out of the house, before he could ask anything, he saw a chain formed by spiritual energy binding him.

"Ah."

Dowager Consort Yu was also startled and let out a cry.

"Prince Zhan, Prince An Yang, what are you doing? Ji’er is still young, why bother with a child?"

These two were too rude, they just tied up her Ji’er. What do they want to do, take the lives of her and her son?

"A child?"

An Jiuyue chuckled softly, stepping forward to look at the Fifteenth Prince, who was almost as tall as his mother, Consort Wen.

"Dowager Consort Yu, do you think your son looks like a son who wants to exterminate my family, or a son who wants to become the Crown Prince? I had no idea the current Emperor had such a son!"

"You..."

Dowager Consort Yu shivered all over, too guilty to speak.

It seems they’ve heard everything. Now this matter won’t be easily resolved. She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to meet An Jiuyue’s gaze.

"Even if Ji’er said something wrong, it’s up to the current Emperor to judge. What right do you have to apply private punishment here? Where do you place the laws of the country?"

After all, she bets that these two won’t kill them here, at most take them back to the capital.

"Laws of the country?"

An Jiuyue was truly amused.

This mother and son know what the laws of the country are? Do they not find it ridiculous to mention these four words?

"After abducting so many young men and women in Ying City, do you still see the laws of the country in your eyes? Oh, I understand. The laws of the country aren’t to protect the people but to protect you two, isn’t it?"

"I..."

Dowager Consort Yu opened her mouth but had no words.

She had abducted many men, it was something all of Ying City knew, and it was easy to find out. How could she explain it?

"Prince An Yang, you’ve misunderstood. I did not abduct any men. Those men followed me willingly. If you don’t believe it, you can ask them."

She believed that if Prince An Yang asked those men, none would dare oppose her, for only she could guarantee their wealth and status.

"Oh? Is that so?"

An Jiuyue curved his lips into an eerie smile, looking at Dowager Consort Yu.

"Then it’s fine. When I speak to the Retired Emperor about this, I can say those men voluntarily clung to Dowager Consort Yu, that it wasn’t her intention, right?"

"Uh."

Dowager Consort Yu was utterly choked.

How could such matters be spoken of to the Retired Emperor? Saying it means death not only for her but also leaves no future for her Ji’er who wouldn’t gain the Retired Emperor’s favor. This Prince An Yang is truly too vicious.

"Prince An Yang, you’re joking. I could have nothing to do with those men. It’s all just others’ nonsense."

"Is that so?"

An Jiuyue winked at Dowager Consort Yu.

"So, these two children also have nothing to do with you. If I killed them, you wouldn’t have a word to say, right?"

As she spoke, two children, one large and one small, flew down from mid-air, landing gently in the courtyard.
