By the time everyone rushed to the entrance of Chaoyang Palace, they saw the eldest prince coming out with several dozen skittish soldiers who were holding Consort Dowager Shu hostage.
The consort dowager was terrified, and tears dripped from her face when she saw the queen dowager and the others appearing.
Behind the consort dowager followed Consort Cheng, Side Consort Wu, and Side Consort Zhang.
Each of them was more or less stricken by fear.
Consort Cheng in particular knelt down frantically while crying the moment she saw the Mo king. "My king, Mo Jiao was instigated to do such mindless actions. Will my king please spare his life!"
The women beside Consort Cheng started sniveling.
Upon hearing this, the Vassal King of An'nan, who had been forced to kneel by the side, cracked up uncontrollably. "Consort Cheng, you're still begging them at this moment in time? Do you think that there is any use in doing so?"
