Before Zhuo Ma could react, Xiao Nanye took the snake flute from her sleeve.

Zhuo Ma was panic once the snake flute fall into Xiao Nanye’s hand.

“King Cheng, is this the proof you were talking about?”

“Prince Ha Chi, you’re a wise man. Now, why don’t you tell my imperial brother what is this?”

Xiao Nanye didn’t look at Zhuo Ma but turned his attention to Ha Chi.

Ha Chi’s expression was upset about it.

He stepped forward and after bowing to Emperor Qi Ming, he announced, “Your Majesty, this is indeed the snake flute. 1 apologize for the lapse in my guidance.”

“Brother, what are you saying?”

Zhuo Ma couldn’t believe that her brother would admit it so directly. Her eyes were filled with anger.

Ha Chi went forward and slapped Zhuo Ma’s face.

With the warning given by Ha Chi, Zhuo Ma bit her lips tightly.

“Princess Zhuo Ma, do you have anything else to say?”

At this moment, Emperor Qi Ming questioned her.

“Ploaco fnrcriva mn Vnnr Maioctw I inct wanted tn nlaw a inlro nn the oldoct mice “Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I just wanted to play a joke on the eldest miss of the Jiang family.”

“Nonsense!”

Hearing her reason, Emperor Qi Ming’s eyes revealed some anger.

However, he couldn’t just let Xiao Nanye kill Zhuo Ma. So, Qi Ming insisted alternative way by asking Jiang Peihuan again. “Miss Jiang, how would you like to handle this matter?”

“This has nothing to do with the princess. 1 was the one who released the snake.”

Zhuo Ma’s maid, Azhu confessed her sin.

Xiao Nanye’s expression turned cold upon hearing this.

“Just a moment ago, you said it wasn’t you.”

“I…”

Just as she was about to speak again, she felt a sharp pain on her neck.

Xiao Nanye had cut Azhu’s neck, leaving a bloody mark. She collapsed to the ground immediately.

“AZHU!?”

Zhuo Ma’s eyes were filled with terror as she watched her maid, Azhu being killed on the spot.

Instinctively, she looked towards Xiao Nanye, only to see him approaching her step by step.

“Xiao Nanye, stop right there!”

The seated Emperor Qi Ming, witnessing this scene, urgently spoke out.

“Jiang Peihuan, I’m asking you. How do you want to handle this?”

JianG Peihuan also understood Emperor Qi Ming’s thoughts. He was unwilling to kill Princess Zhuo Ma.

“Emperor, since Princess Zhuo Ma said that this was just a joke, then let’s end this matter here.”

“Huan Er?”

Xiao Nanye subconsciously frowned.

Emperor Qi Ming said with a smile, “You are truly magnanimous.”

“Princess Zhuo Ma, even if this was just a joke, you need to apologize to Miss Jiang.” a smile appeared on Emperor Qi Ming face.

With Jiang Peihuan suggesting to let it go, Her life was spared.

With the command of Emperor Qi Ming, She walked up to Jiang Peihuan and said, “Miss Jiang, I truly apologize.”

“It’s alright.”

As she spoke, Jian Peihuan smiled and helped Zhuo Ma up.

After a cup of tea, Jian Peihuan left the palace with Xiao Nanye and Jiang Hong.

“Great General, if you have something to do, go ahead. 1 will send Huan Er back to the mansion in a while.”

Seeing that Zhuo Ma wasn’t injured at all, Jiang Hong’s eyes were filled with unwillingness.

He had rushed back from the military camp. “Thank you, Your Highness.” he nodded.

Jiang Hong rode away on his horse.

After Jiang Hong left, Xiao Nanye immediately looked at Jiang Peihuan and said,” Why did you let that woman go?”

“How do you know I spared her?”

As she spoke, a faint smile appeared in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes. Seeing the smile in her eyes, Xiao Nanye’s eyes revealed some doubt.

“Ah…”

At this moment, an ear-piercing scream came from behind.

Xiao Nanye turned around.

He realized that Zhuo Ma kept scratching her body and face.

No matter how much Ha Chi tried to stop her, it was futile. Ha Chi finally had no choice but to knock Zhuo Ma out.

It was only then that Zhuo Ma stopped scratching herself.

As Zhuo Ma passed by Jiang Peihuan, she noticed the blood marks on Zhuo Ma’s face.

Watching Zhuo Ma’s condition, Xiao Nanye’s knew about her strategy.

“Let’s go, Huan Er. 1’11 send you back to the mansion.”

“Let’s not go back to the mansion first. Let’s go to the place where the porridge is distributed in the city.”

“Alright.”

The two headed towards the place where porridge was being given out in the city. When Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan arrived, the line was exceptionally long.

She realized that most of these faces were unfamiliar, meaning these beggars were not the same ones from last night.

“Eldest sister, you’re here.”

Upon seeing Jiang Peihuan, both Jiang Songbai and Jiang Sijin were elated.

Jiang Peihuan turned to Deputy General Liu and said, “There are too many people. Open two more pots.”

“Yes, Eldest Miss.”

“What are you all standing around for? Hurry up and help!”

At this moment, Han Feng directed the soldiers beside him.

The soldiers quickly rushed to help with the tasks.

Xiao Nanye turned around and saw Han Feng standing there. He looked at him said,” What are you still standing here for?”

“I’ll go help too.”

Han Feng ran over to help too.

“Xiao Nanye, why don’t you return to the mansion first? There are too many people.”

“I’ll stay and help you.”

Before Jiang Peihuan could refuse, she noticed that he had already started giving out orders.

Despite the large crowd, Xiao Nanye effortlessly gave his instructions.

Jiang Peihuan would’ve been overwhelmed alone, but with Xiao Nanye’s assistance, things felt much more manageable.

A cry reached Jiang Peihuan’s, “Grandpa, wake up, we have food. Please, wake up…”

Jiang Peihuan saw two children, desperately shaking an old man on the ground.

The children looked about four or five years old.

Sorrow flashed in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

She approached them and checked the old man’s pulse.

The two children were initially crying, but they paused momentarily upon seeing Jiang Peihuan. They asked for help repeatedly, “Sister, please save our grandpa…”

“Deputy General Liu?

“Eldest Miss?”

“Find a place to give these two children some food and clothes.”

“Sister, we don’t want food or clothes. We just want you to save my grandfather.”

As she spoke, the two children wanted to kneel down again, but Jiang Peihuan held them up..
