Chapter 715: Intimidation - Mo Qingze Gets Caught (4)_1

As soon as the words were out, two guards stepped forward with chains, ready to bind Mo Qingze.
The sudden turn of events left everyone in the hall too shocked to react. Mo Yan, hearing the commotion and unsure of what was happening, came out only to see a scene that made her heart race with anger. As she was about to intervene, another voice suddenly rang out: "Stop!"
Chu Heng spoke up, halting the soldiers’ actions of binding their captive. He stood, approached Mo Qingze, and with an authority that did not need to show anger, he questioned the head guard, "Why do you arrest Mr. Mo? Do you have an Imperial Edict?"
The head guard looked closely and only then realized that the person before him was none other than the Crown Prince. His face changed, and he immediately kneeled on the ground: "This lowly one did not know Your Highness was present, I beg for Your Highness’s forgiveness!"
Seeing this, the other guards also knelt and asked for mercy.
"Speak, why do you arrest Mr. Mo, do you have an Imperial Edict?"
It was not until this moment that Chu Heng no longer restrained the imposing air of a nation’s Crown Prince. His seemingly casual inquiry was laden with an overwhelming force that struck deep into the hearts of all the guards.
