This was definitely the most stifling situation that Ouyang Yaoyi had come across in her life. If she knew this would happen, then she wouldn't have ordered them to spy on the Emperor. That way, she would still be sitting comfortably in the sedan chair right now. But what's with not letting the maids support her by the hand? She didn't do anything wrong this time.

Ouyang Yaoyi ignored Han Moze's command. In spite of how Caidie and Caiyi felt, she continued to take out her anger on the two of them.

Han Moxi turned around to glance back again and realised that Ouyang Yaoyi was still being supported by Caidie and Caiyi. Just like before, he helplessly shook his head and smiled. Of all the people to offend, it had to be his royal brother...

Wuying walked up to Han Moze's side and respectfully said, "I have already passed on your majesty's words to the Third Princess."

Han Moze took another quick glance back. His gaze instantly turned cold and dark. "Shackle Ouyang Yaoyi and detain her all the way back to the Capital."

"Yes, your majesty," replied Wuying respectfully.

Then, he turned around and ordered the two guards to find shackles, before returning to Ouyang Yaoyi's side.

"Why are you back now?" Asked Ouyang Yaoyi coldly, as she glared at Wuying on his horse. This was the first time a servant dared disrespect her. If she were back at the Nanli Imperial Palace, she would have tortured him to death a long time ago.

Wuying saw the ferocious look upon Ouyang Yaoyi's face, then flashed a mockingly cold smirk. "Shackle the Third Princess," he said flatly.

"Yes!" The two guards standing behind them immediately walked up to Ouyang Yaoyi to put the shackles on her.

Ouyang Yaoyi panicked and let go of Caidie and Caiyi's arms. She then put her hands behind her and took a few steps back. By no means did she want to look like a shackled up criminal.

The two guards clearly knew that the consequence of disobeying Han Moze's orders was always death by his single palm attack.

As a result, they immediately walked up to Ouyang Yaoyi and detained her.

"You dare treat me like this?" Cried Ouyang Yaoyi in anger, as she turned her head to look back at the guards. She was the respectable Third Princess of Nanli, and yet these guards dared detain her? She tried her hardest to struggle out of the their clutches.

"Hurry up and free me! Otherwise, I will definitely have you killed!"

The two guards trembled in fear from Ouyang Yaoyi's ruthless words. It was difficult to be guards in this day and age. If they weren't careful, they could end up dead left and right.

But execution of their whole family was an even more frightening punishment. After hesitating for a split-second, they swiftly put Ouyang Yaoyi in shackles.

Wuying grinned and told the two guards, "Detain the Third Princess all the way back to the Capital."

"Yes!" Replied the two guards, as they sighed once again at how tough it was to be a guard.

"Let go! I'm ordering you both to let me go!" Shrieked Ouyang Yaoyi.

The two guards remained silent, as their eyes revealed just how annoyed they were.

...

Mid-route, Han Moze pulled out the black authorisation tally of the Blood Feast with the pretty and alluring Datura flower engraved upon it.

Han Moze smirked slightly, as his eyes revealed a devilish glow.

Shuang'Er, you really do deserve to be taught a lesson!

Han Moxe looked at the authorisation tally in Han Moze's hand and his eyes lit up. With this, they could eat and drink for free at any Blood Feast establishment.

Han Moze put the tally away with a grin and coldly said, "I will make that woman show herself on her own accord. Let's talk after we're back at the palace."

"Yes, royal brother," replied Han Moxi with a smile. He knew that Han Moze must have had an idea.

...

Liu Rushuang, who was lying in bed in the Blood Feast headquarters, felt a sudden chill and tightened her grip on the book in her hands.

She glanced at Qing'Er, who fell asleep reading, and pulled a slight smile.

...

She ruffled Qing'Er's hair. Qing'Er's eyes quivered a little, then opened. When she saw Liu Rushuang, she rubbed her eyes and sat up. "Young Miss, is it morning yet?" She asked with a smile on her face.

Liu Rushuang's face was instantly covered in cold sweat. She really is the most unreliable maid... But she liked her. "If you don't want to go eat, then you can continue to sleep," she said with a gentle smile.

Qing'Er furrowed her brows and thought about it for a moment before she suddenly came to a sudden realisation. "Oh yeah! Young Miss, we haven't even had lunch yet!"

Liu Rushuang slightly grinned and said, "In the afternoon, I'll have to dine in the main hall, so I can't be with you."

"Ok, Young Miss. It should be almost time now. Let me comb your hair for you," Qing'Er said with a smile.

Liu Rushuang looked cold and distant, as she got out of bed and sat in front of the dressing table. Qing'Er helped Liu Rushuang do her make up, just as she did it when they previously stayed at Blood Feast.

Some hair fell naturally in the front, whilst the others were combed up into a topknot with three plum blossom flowers made of pure gold and ruby gems inserted into it. There was a semi-circle assessory with three dangling rubies and gold engraved flowers upon her bright forehead, as it conveniently hid the plum blossom mark.

After Liu Rushuang got all dressed up, she left the room and was first to take a seat in the main hall.

The main hall was in the other cliff. The building was very large and it had different designs engraved into the walls. Glass lanterns hung from the room, and there was a round, black table in the centre of the room with the Datura flower engraved upon it. Quite a few guards stood all around the main hall.

After people who worked in the dining hall placed a spread of various exotic foods on the table, the four great clan masters, the Enforcement house, the Medical house and all the commanders arrived on time.

Sixteen people entered in total and stood around the round table. "Greetings, milady!" They cried politely in unison.

Liu Rushuang glanced up at the eighteen masters in management, who were all dressed in black.

"Please sit," she said flatly.

"Yes, milady," everyone replied before they took their seats.

The four elders from the enforcement house sat on the right of Liu Rushuang. The youngest of them was over forty years old. Their martial arts and experience weren't beneath that of the four clan masters. For the most part, the people of the Enforcement House were responsible for the strong development and supervision of the Blood Feast's enterprises.

The four doctors of the Medical House, who looked over sixty years old and had white hair, sat beside the Enforcement House.

Ming Ye, Lin Ye, Mo Ye, and Mei Ye, who were responsible for training and examinations, sat on Liu Rushuang's left.

The other four commanders were responsible for other affairs.

Two years ago, Liu Rushuang defeated the four clan masters and the clan leader. She also passed the Enforcement House's examination, took the clan leader's position and earned the equal rank as the Enforcement House.

The Grand Elder of the Enforcement House looked about eighty years old. He kept a long white beard, had moon-shaped eyes and looked very affectionate. After he took his seat, he asked with a smile, "Hey little girl, couldn't stand it at the Minister's manor?"

Liu Rushuang shot a glance at the kind elderly man who was actually conniving, and flatly said, "If I don't come back, then I'm afraid that Blood Feast will have to change leaders."

The Grand Elder couldn't help but smile, as he always thought this little girl was unfit to be the clan leader and he did in fact try to find the next generation clan leader.

"Little girl, what do you take the Enforcement House for? Since when could we just casually change the clan leader?"

Liu Rushuang looked over at the Grand Elder's fake smile and smiled back faintly in silence.

The Second Elder was about seventy years old, slightly fat and looked really honest. He stared at Liu Rushuang with his strict tiger-like eyes, and spoke with a deep voice. "You actually sent assassins to kill the crown prince of Nanli. What if someone found out we were behind it? For no reason, Blood Feast would definitely have to take on the blame for killing the crown prince, and what then? How would Blood Feast stand tall?"
