C528 Planting (1/2)
Baili Jinxiu was clearly warning Gong Xiaohan this, but unfortunately, he said that in a plain and reasonable manner. Gong Xiaohan clenched his fists under his sleeves, and a sentence popped out from between his teeth: ”Royal Sister-In-Law has learnt his lesson, next time I see it clearly.”
Baili Jinxiu only laughed and did not speak any further.
The procession that was originally going to offer sacrifices to the Ancestor would no longer continue to exist after what had happened. Looking at the mess on the ground and the shocked expression on the Emperor's face, it was clear to see.
This was only the first time an assassin had become like this. If they were to do it again …
But this Ancestor Sacrifice had always been a part of the royal family's traditions. If they didn't go, then it would be considered unfilial.
Seeing the conflicted look on Emperor's face, Gong Xiaohan smiled mockingly, took two steps forward, knelt down respectfully and said: ”Royal father was scared by an assassin, why not go back to the palace and rest, and let this son pay respects for you.”
Baili Jinxiu smiled playfully at Gong Xiaohan. On the other hand, Gong Xiaohan knew how to react, and if he showed up in time to relieve the emperor's worries, he would probably get the title of Crown Prince that easily.
Gong Xiaohan had given Emperor enough face to step down from the stage. Emperor thought for a moment, then laughed: ”That's good.”
Baili Jinxiu laughed sarcastically at the side. With the other abilities of the crown prince, he had learnt how to flatter his family.
As a result, the ceremony was split into two teams, and Emperor led a large portion of the people back to the palace. Gong Xiaohan then brought some people that were necessary to head to the imperial temple at the outskirts of the city, the neglected Baili Jinxiu slowly walked back to the Duke Palace.
”Yo, Princess An is rather relaxed, wandering around on this street.”
Baili Jinxiu was startled, today there were two who liked to call for people from behind, it was truly interesting.
But Baili Jinxiu was not in the mood to deal with this irritating Crown Prince Jin Nie, so he pretended not to hear anything and walked forward, his footsteps secretly speeding up.
Prince Jin Nie fanned himself with a fan in his hands, and quickly stood in front of Baili Jinxiu, blocking his way. As if he was a scoundrel in a city, he laughed: ”These are considered acquaintances, why don't you give me some face and run away?”
Crown Prince Jin Nie was smiling happily on the surface, but on the bottom of his heart, he secretly shot a look at Baili Jinxiu many times. His advisor had been captured right in front of his eyes. Yesterday night, his corpse was left at the entrance of the relay station. This was a slap in the face!
However, when he thought about how his plans had been ruined by Baili Jinxiu today, a pleased look surfaced on Prince Jin Nie's face. Or is it because you're in a hurry to return home and think about it? ”
Baili Jinxiu felt that this Crown Prince Jin Nie was asking for a beating. He was purposely provoking Ye Xiao, making Ye Xiao a joke.
Baili Jinxiu walked two steps towards Crown Prince Jin Nie and slightly raised his hand. Crown Prince Jin Nie immediately retreated two steps back in fear, and asked cautiously: ”Baili Jinxiu, what are you trying to do?”
Baili Jinxiu laughed softly, ”Yo, Crown Prince Jin Nie must have despised me for not giving you face right? Now that I have specially greeted you, why is it that Prince Jin Nie is actually so afraid?
Also, this wangfei seemed to have heard from the Crown Prince Jin Nie just now that this wangfei failed in her assassination attempt? The Emperor and the Crown Prince both admitted that they had seen the wrong person and misunderstood this wangfei. What evidence did Crown Prince Jin Nie have? If not, then I'm afraid that you would have to explain it all to this wangfei in front of Emperor! ”
