Chapter 584: Broken Palm to Apologize
Chapter 584: Broken Palm to Apologize
Perhaps it was because her mother, the princess, had come, and her fifth uncle, Prince Yong, had also come, Baili Ziyuan felt more confident than ever before.
She continued to accuse, "We refused to give it to you, so you had someone snatch it away and even beat Zi Le's little white rabbit to death!"
"Mother, Aunt Wu Huang, those bad guys wanted to beat Zile and Ziyi! Fortunately, my sister Yi'er was here and saved Zile, Ziyi and me. Otherwise, we would all be hurt!"
Xu Zheng's face turned slightly pale, and he looked at his eldest grandson with a pair of sharp eyes, "Tianxiong, are you really like this?!"
Xu Tianxiong looked into his eyes, and the expression on his face became uncontrollably weak.
"I, I didn't..."
After hearing this, Ziyuan and Ziyi said in unison, "You're lying! You clearly have it!"
Zi Le, standing behind the two of them, also mustered up his courage and said, "Yes! You are lying! You are a villain even worse than Zhan Er's brother!!"
After hearing this, Prince Yong couldn't help but speak, "Master Xu, what do you think about this matter?"
Xu Zheng was speechless.
If it were any other time, he might still believe his own grandson, but at this time, even though he was old and confused, he could still see the guilty look on his grandson's face!
The matter is so obvious, what else can he say?
"Tianxiong! Kowtow and apologize to the young princess, the young county lady, and the young prince!"
Xu Tianxiong's face was filled with fear, and he immediately pouting and apologizing to Yi'er and the others, "I'm sorry!"
Princess Yong, however, didn't seem to want to let it go. Her face was full of sarcasm, and her eyes were filled with coldness. "Master Xu, do you think that just saying sorry will allow me to pretend that what happened today never happened?"
"Do you know that if it weren't for the little princess of Prince Li's family, my princess's daughter, she would have been hacked to death by your guards!!"
The scene of Baili Zile standing under the big knife made Xu Sinian tremble with fear. Even now, she still has lingering fears.
But Xu Zheng actually just wanted an apology, so what?
Xu Zheng looked at Xu Si Nian, a hint of displeasure flashing across his brows, and asked calmly, "Then what does Princess Yong think should be done about this?"
"Could it be that Xu Tianxiong was killed?"
Xu Si Nian was furious, blood boiling in his cheeks, and he shouted angrily, "Xu Zheng! You are so bold!!"
These officials usually disrespected her and Prince Yong, but now, his descendants of Xu Zheng intended to harm the royal bloodline. Even though he was so guilty, he still dared to treat her with such disrespect!
Xu Zheng knelt upright, with a look of pride and dignity on his face, and was not at all frightened by Xu Cinian's anger.
He tilted his head and asked Xu Chengchang, "Just now, who was it that tried to harm Princess Yong's daughter with a knife?"
Xu Chengchang trembled with fear and pointed his finger at a servant who was kneeling on the ground behind him.
Xu Zheng asked again, "Is this person a servant born in the family? Is his indenture in the mansion?"
Xu Chengchang was filled with worry and fear. Although he didn't understand why his father asked this, he still replied very seriously, "He's a servant born in the family..."
After hearing this, Xu Zheng stood up.
Everyone stared at him with strange eyes, not knowing what he was going to do.
Suddenly, he pulled out a long knife from the hands of the servant behind him, and there seemed to be murderous intent in his cold eyes.
"Xu Zheng! What do you want to do?!"
Prince Yong was startled and subconsciously stood in front of Princess Yong and the children.
The next second, a tragic scream was heard, which made people's scalp tingle.
Xu Zheng walked up to the servant with a knife and chopped off his right palm with one stroke.
Blood spurted everywhere. The Third Princess, Princess Yong and others quickly covered the eyes of the children. The anger on their faces almost made them want to cut Xu Zheng into pieces!
The people around watched this scene with horror on their faces. They could hardly believe that this general who always looked gentle was actually a murderer!
Xu Zheng casually threw the knife in his hand, then knelt down again in front of Baili Ruyun and others.
"Princess, are you satisfied with this punishment for the villain?"
After all, he is one of the Three Dukes, of the first rank, and holds a high position of power. Even the Fourth, Eighth, and Ninth Princes have to put on a smile when they see him!
But now, an unpopular prince, a prince and a princess with no real power, actually dared to point at his nose and scold him!
It really made him feel humiliated!
Shu He's eyes were filled with coldness. "Sir, as the Grand Marshal, you are doing such a cruel thing in the street. Aren't you afraid of damaging your authority?!"
She really didn't expect that although Xu Zheng looked elegant and refined, his methods were actually very vicious!
Feeling the murderous gazes from the other side, Xu Zheng remained calm and said sincerely, "Just now, Princess Yong said that an apology can't solve this matter. Then this old minister will ask the instigator to offer a hand as an apology. Isn't this the greatest sincerity?"
"Or is Princess Yong still not satisfied? Then I will give you his entire life as compensation!"
As he spoke, he stood up again, picked up the long sword on the ground, and walked towards the guard with the broken hand.
The guard was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and blood had stained the ground in front of him red.
Looking at his master walking towards him with a knife in hand, panic surged in his eyes.
"Master, please spare my life..."
He was just following orders!
The black mole under Xu Zheng's eyebrow made his brows look even more sinister.
"Little brother, please don't blame me. After all, I wouldn't dare offend someone who wants to kill you!"
Xu Cinian's beautiful face was filled with anger, and she murmured, "He's forcing me to speak!"
Baili Rushu was also very angry.
She also realized that Xu Zheng clearly wanted to forcefully pin the "crime of murder" on Princess Yong!
What a courage!
Shu He was filled with coldness. Was he certain that Princess Yong would stop him?
Just as he raised his knife to chop, Xu Cinian couldn't help but speak to stop him, "Xu..."
As soon as she spoke, Shu He beside her stopped her.
