Chapter 751: Chapter 751: Falling into a Desperate Situation (6)_1

The encircling enemies, upon seeing their reckless behavior, were taken aback.

After all, it was a deep ravine at the bottom of the hill, rolling down like this, it would either lead to their death or cause severe injuries.

Tana did not abandon Lin Ziyin at the critical moment. The instant they rolled down the hillside, she tightly embraced Lin Ziyin, using her own body as a buffer, blocking much of the damage for Lin Ziyin.

Soon, two large snowballs rolled away at a swift speed from the hillside.

The people above were anxiously watching, yet none of them had the courage like Lin Ziyin and his group to follow suit. They looked at each other and at the scene below, not saying a word.

"You broke your promise." The people from Changchun Country angrily glared at the Crown Prince’s people, "We agreed to hand the Princess over to us, on what basis did you try to kill her?"

"Kill them." After losing Lin Ziyin, the Crown Prince’s men started fighting the people from Changchun Country.

"You?" The ambassador of Changchun Country was shocked and rushed to fight back, causing both sides to start fighting against each other.

The lady from the Mu Family in Feng City boarded a carriage and headed straight for the inn. Once at the inn, she had her maid explain her purpose, "Madam Mu from the Marquis Residence seeks to meet with the Prince."

Mu Family’s lady hesitated multiple times in the carriage before deciding to seek help directly from the Prince, disregarding the King. Although both the Princes would exert more pressure on the Lin King, the chances of success would be greater.

Even though she is not in Capital City, she knows the Prince belongs to the Crown Prince’s group, and the King is the Crown Prince’s rival. The Crown Prince’s birth mother, the current Empress, is her cousin of the Mu Family. Coming over to seek the Prince’s assistance would increase her chances.

Since it was a matter of life and death for her children, Lady Mu did not dare to take it lightly.

Wearing a silver cloak, Lady Mu waited alone for news in the wind, appearing desolate. The only ones accompanying her were her maid, that could only be considered part of the Mu Family.

"Madam, both the young master and young miss will be safe." Her maid reassured her in low voice, lacking confidence herself.

Lady Mu remained still, well-aware of how bleak the outlook was. Chu Suifeng was like a ferocious tiger, a king in the Northern Land. Even if the Empress herself came, Chu Suifeng might not show her due respect.

But what could she do? Her children, her lifetime of pride, were being punished. Ever since she was young, she had always looked down on the Marquis. Therefore, she devoted all her energy to her children.

There’s a saying among the people that parents tend to spoil the youngest child. This is very true in her case. For many years, she was certain that her eldest son would be the one to inherit the title of the Marquis, and her daughter would become the most noble woman in the Northern Land. In doing so, she had given all her love to these two children, almost forgetting her second child.

But reality shattered all her hopes. The ones in trouble were her most loved children. She won’t allow, she can’t allow anything to happen to her children!

"Madam, please. The Prince is waiting for you in the courtyard," a guard respectfully informed her upon coming out.

Lady Mu, seeing his behavior, immediately felt relieved. The Prince hadn’t refused to see her, granting her a glimmer of hope for pleading her case.

As she entered, Lady Mu’s steps were increasingly hurried. But the guard leading the way showed no hurry and seemed utterly oblivious to her anxious demeanor.

Lady Mu, being at the mercy of the Prince, dared not rashly vent her frustrations at his guard, no matter how much hurry she was in.

Luckily, the distance from the main gate to the courtyard wasn’t too far, so Lady Mu quickly arrived at the entrance of the courtyard.
