Since Mo Qie'er wants to introduce Dai Li to Sai Lida, it has already been shown that he is on the side of Grand Duke Si Mo'er.

In his view, the current situation is the perfect opportunity to curry favor with Si Mo'er. Moreover, not only can he please Si Mo'er, but he can also use Jiang Chen to disgrace Grand Duke Pu Losi. By doing this, Grand Duke Si Mo'er will surely appreciate him even more!

"Mo Qie'er, shut up!" Pu Losi's heart was filled with anger, and he shouted out angrily.

Mo Qie'er glanced at Grand Duke Pu Losi, feeling a bit intimidated inside.

However, he caught a glimpse of Si Mo'er on the side, gritted his teeth hard, and said in a deep voice, "Grand Duke Pu Losi, his words have seriously offended Grand Duke Si Mo'er; this is blatant disregard for the Royal Family. Is it wrong for me to ask him to apologize?"

"You..." Pu Losi was furious, glaring fiercely at Mo Qie'er.

"Grand Duke Pu Losi!" Jiang Chen spoke softly, stopping Pu Losi, and said quietly: "Let me handle it!"

Jiang Chen stepped forward to Mo Qie'er and looked at him coldly, "You want me to kneel and kowtow, right?"

"Yes!" Mo Qie'er shouted in a low voice, arrogantly looking at Jiang Chen, "Being able to kowtow to Grand Duke Si Mo'er is your honor!"

"Is that so? Then I'll give this honor back to you!" Jiang Chen responded lightly, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes, and he kicked out fiercely.

Bam!

Crack!

A dull sound and the breaking of bones sounded simultaneously as Jiang Chen kicked Mo Qie'er's knee.

"Ah!"

Thud!

Mo Qie'er let out a shrill scream and fell heavily to the ground.

"Isn't kowtowing supposed to be an honor? You're not quite getting it right; let me help you!" Jiang Chen said coldly, kicking out again.

Bam!

Thud!

Mo Qie'er flipped onto his side, lying directly at Si Mo'er's feet, his head pressed closely to the ground, on top of which was Jiang Chen's foot!

"Oh my goodness! What's he doing?!"

"He, he actually dared to hit Marquis Mo Qie'er?! Is he crazy?"

"He's doomed! He's definitely doomed!"

"Even Grand Duke Pu Losi can't save him now! He's doomed!"

The guests exclaimed in shock, watching Jiang Chen with incredulous eyes.

Si Mo'er's eye twitched twice rapidly, looking slightly surprised at Jiang Chen, a fleeting look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

Pu Losi was also taken aback; he did not expect Jiang Chen to be so assertive, directly knocking down Marquis Mo Qie'er.

"The Empress is here!"

Suddenly, a call rang out, causing everyone to freeze, turning to look towards the side door.

Pu Losi urgently said, "Mr. Jiang, lift your foot quickly."

Jiang Chen glanced at Pu Losi and casually lifted his foot.

At the side door.

A white-haired woman in a lavish dress slowly walked out, Si Liya supporting her by her side, followed by Butler Hu Li.

Then, there were Mi Jiaro and a pair of young men and women walking side by side, with Ha'er and the other two following behind.

At the very back, several burly men in golden armor followed.

Hmm? It's them?

Jiang Chen glanced at that pair of young men and women and the old man behind them, showing a bit of surprise.

"Mr. Jiang, that couple and the elderly man are the mysterious people Grand Duke Pu Losi received!" Ge'er Yan whispered to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen nodded in understanding, a smile curling up the corner of his mouth, what a coincidence!

"Your Majesty!"

Everyone bowed in salute.

"What happened?" Sensing the unusual atmosphere in the banquet hall, the Empress asked in confusion, scanning the crowd, her gaze fixed on the entrance.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you must stand up for us!"

Dai Li cried out, supporting Mo Qie'er, kneeling on the ground to complain to the Empress: "This thug attacked my father without cause; please stand up for us and execute this thug!"

Dai Li's words focused the Empress and everyone else's eyes onto Jiang Chen.

"Mr. Jiang."

Mi Jiaro called out and directly bypassed the Empress to stand before Jiang Chen: "What's going on? About to fight?"

Ha'er and the others also walked up, looking at Si Mo'er and Pu Losi with doubt in their eyes.

The Empress was slightly stunned, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise.

"Aren't they from the Holy Court? They know that Jiang Chen!?"

"No wonder he dares to be so bold; turns out he has the backing of the Holy Court!"

"This is tricky; Grand Duke Si Mo'er might have to back down!"

"Isn't that impossible? After all, this is the Imperial Palace of Y Country; surely the Holy Court wouldn't disrespect the Royal Family? Jiang Chen not only acted here but also attacked a Marquis, a crime punishable by death!"

The guests all showed expressions of surprise, whispering among themselves.

"Mr. Jiang, long time no see!"

Another call rang out, with the young couple and the elderly man behind them also bypassing the Empress to come to Jiang Chen's side.

"Mr. Ya Se, Miss Alice, long time no see!" Jiang Chen smiled and greeted them.

Seeing this scene, the Empress's expression changed.

She was very aware of Ya Se's identity, and now the heirs of two hegemonic forces were greeting Jiang Chen; today's matter is bound to be troublesome!

"Everyone, who can tell me what happened?"

The Empress contemplated for a moment, stepping to Jiang Chen and the others, speaking softly, but her gaze was fixed on Pu Losi.

Pu Losi bowed to the Empress, speaking softly: "Mother, I'm not entirely clear on the whole incident, but Ge'er Yan should know."

Pu Losi's words drew everyone's attention to Ge'er Yan.

"Your Majesty." Ge'er Yan hurriedly bowed, quickly recounting the incident, without any embellishment, fully and truthfully narrating the facts.

Sai Lida's forehead instantly broke out in cold sweat, nervously glancing at the Empress.

"What? No invitation means attempting to assassinate the Empress? And arrest? Then you can arrest me too; I don't have an invitation either!"

Mi Jiaro was the first to get angry, shouting loudly, fiercely glaring at Sai Lida.

"The Royal Family is overstepping!"

Ya Se looked up at Si Mo'er, speaking in a deep voice; he saw through the situation deeper than Mi Jiaro.

The Empress glanced at Mi Jiaro and Ya Se, her expression changing involuntarily, re-evaluating the relationship between Ya Se, Mi Jiaro, and Jiang Chen.

Lu Shi and the other two fell silent, quietly standing to the side, not speaking.

This matter no longer required their intervention, and they did not wish to step in; Lu Shi's previous actions were already somewhat inconsistent with their organization's stance toward Jiang Chen!

"Mr. Jiang, I apologize on behalf of the Royal Family for their rudeness towards you!"

The Empress immediately decided, slightly bowing towards Jiang Chen, speaking apologetically.

This shocked the entire audience!
