 Chapter 145: 

Seeking Help

Murong Zhe solemnly asked, "What brings the commander of Prince Qi's mansion's guards here?"

"What brings me here? Don't you know what you did yesterday?" Commander Yao taunted.

As Commander Yao spoke, the lead man from yesterday suddenly appeared behind him, his eyes fierce. "It's them. They bullied my young master. You must capture all of them and make them pay for insulting my young master."

"Don't worry. Anyone who bullies your young master won't be saved even if the Jade Emperor himself comes." Commander Yao glanced at the Murong family and ordered sternly, "Men, arrest them all for me."

"Wait! We haven't committed any crimes. You're not constables; you're just from the Prince's mansion. Why are you arbitrarily arresting people?"

"Why? Because our young master is the current emperor's brother. Fooling around with a royal relative, isn't that a crime?"

"Fooling around with a royal relative? From where are you getting this?" 

Commander Yao sneered, "You'll get an explanation in the prison. Men, tie them up."

"Wait." Murong Lingran said, "Commander Yao, look at where we live. It's clear we are just ordinary commoners. How could we possibly harm his master?"

Commander Yao sneered, "At this point, there's no need for you to pretend not to know. He has already told me everything. You agreed to sell the land to Young Master Xiang but backed out when they took over the land. You even incited villagers to injure them. Isn't this bullying?"

"We never agreed to sell the land. Young Master Xiang? We don't even know him. How could we sell the land to him?" Murong Lingran frowned.

The lead man spoke roughly, "No need to waste words with them. They went back on their word. Arrest them. Young Master Xiang is merciful; he says that as long as they are taught a lesson, and the land is taken back, it's enough."

Saying this, he whispered to Commander Yao, "Hurry up. If other villagers wake up and see, there might be trouble."

Commander Yao nodded and ordered again, "Men, arrest the whole family."

"Yes."

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from a distance. Before the black-clad figures could take action, an arrow narrowly missed Commander Yao's head and struck the bamboo door.

Commander Yao was startled, touched his head, and angrily turned around, "Who is it? Show yourself!"

Soon after he spoke, Helian Rongjiu rode up to him, putting the bow and arrow back on his back. He looked down at him from a higher vantage point and casually said, "It's me. Sorry, my hand slipped. I'll be more careful next time."

Murong Lingran looked at the approaching figure, frowning in confusion. Why was it Ninth Young Master and not Second Young Master Wei?

Yesterday, after the men left, she had her brother take the jade pendant given by Ninth Young Master to the Ministry of Rites to seek help from Second Young Master Wei.

Although Ninth Young Master had mentioned going to Prince Ning'an's mansion if anything happened, they weren't familiar with Prince Ning'an's mansion. After careful consideration, the Ministry of Rites was a more secure option, considering they had some acquaintance there.

Commander Yao was furious, "Who... who are you? How dare you threaten me! Do you know who I am?"

Helian Rongjiu smoothly dismounted, holding a folding fan in his hand, and grinned, "I don't know."
