  Di Daughter Arrives 088 Step by Step Tightening the Net

  Mu Xiao's expression didn't change. At first, he had only injured his hand and there was no mark on the front of his left chest. Even if they were to inspect him, he wouldn't be afraid.

  Only to see Mu Xiuzhen, who was originally kneeling, suddenly stood up. Some people thought he was going to get angry and unconsciously took a few steps back, but accidentally stepped on the shoes of the person behind him. The entire court became somewhat disordered because Mu Xiuzhen had stood up.

  Mu Xiao didn't pay attention to those officials, but slowly unbuttoned his own buttons and took off his shirt. When the shirt was completely removed, everyone gasped in shock. Mu Xiao's muscles had several scars on them, although they had faded with time, but everyone could imagine how painful it must have been when he got those injuries.

  Everyone's expression was different, only Mu Xiao's expression had not changed from beginning to end. He said: "I am a man, I'm not afraid of being looked at by you, but because I am a man, I sit upright and walk straight, I'm not afraid of being looked at by you, nor do I fear your suspicion!"

  Everyone was stunned, including Lian Ziyu who had just suspected Mu Xiuzhen.

  What amazed others was his scar. What amazed him, however, was that there wasn't any wound on Mu Xiuzhen's left chest!

  Mu Xiuzhen put on her clothes again in front of everyone's gaze: "Your Majesty, can I clear my name now?"

  The emperor finally came to his senses and said, "This proves that Mu Xiao is not the leader of the gang, but rather the prince was thinking about the country, the people's safety."

  The emperor's words were flawless, able to clear Mu Ziyu of suspicion without lowering himself to the level of Lian Zhen.

  Ke Lian didn't intend to give up, originally he still had doubts about whether the news was true or not, but now he believed it, just because Mu Xiao's expression hadn't changed at all. Let alone if a person is innocent, after being suspected by others, how can they remain so calm? At least their expression would change.

  Lian Zhenyan looked at Mu Xiuzi and said, "What a clever bandit chief, you actually thought of this trick. I think what was injured back then wasn't your chest, but your right hand. If your hand is injured, then when you hold the dagger again, it would naturally feel like being stabbed in the chest."

  "Five Prince is indeed relentless. If what you say is true, then my right hand should naturally have scars." He raised his hand, and indeed there were scars, but a martial artist could see at a glance that they were new wounds. "Will Five Prince forget? This was during the battle against Minxi Country, when we were disarmed and I used my hand to block a sword for you."

  When Mu Xiuzi said this, everyone was praising Mu Xiuzi's bravery and the fifth prince's ingratitude. Someone saved you, but you still dare to be so arrogant.

  Lian Chenyan looked at Mu Xiuzhi's right hand, and the scar was indeed because he didn't make a mistake. But if he hadn't misremembered, there really was a small scar on his hand before. Had he anticipated this day or was it unintentional?

  "If I'm not mistaken, when you were proposing disaster relief strategies, your hand was still wrapped in a cloth, wasn't it?"

  Regarding what Lian Zhiyan said, Mu Xiuzi only replied: "I used to be very poor and made a living by chopping firewood. That day I found a lingzhi mushroom, I thought this time I would finally get rich, so I squatted down to dig it up, but unexpectedly there was a snake there. It flew towards me, and in my panic, I blocked it with my hand. In my haste to rush down the mountain, I was scratched by a rattan branch, which left a very deep gash. After going down the mountain, the doctor said that if it weren't for the rattan branch releasing some of the poison from my blood, perhaps I would have died from poisoning."
