C529 You can plead guilty (1/2)
Baili Jinxiu's eyes dimmed. Since he could get the news today, it must be that Crown Prince Jin Nie and Gong Xiaohan had already arranged everything, and were not afraid of him turning back to the present situation.
But now that the situation was like this, Baili Jinxiu anxiously had no other choice. He could just ignore it and leisurely go to the kitchen to get some food for the night.
When Gong Xiaoxuan came to ask about Baili Jinxiu, he could only spit out a few words: ”We will deal with it when it's necessary, we will deal with it when it's necessary.”
The second day, Eunuch Fu Shun who was next to the Emperor came to the Duke Palace to 'invite people', and said that he would rather ask them to come. If they did not cooperate, then things would definitely not be good for them, just look at the ferocious guards behind Fu Shun.
Gong Xiaoxuan was silently releasing the cold air from his ice-cold face as usual, but the pressure in his eyes was extremely low. Baili Jinxiu smiled and handed over a black bag to Fu Shun, then asked: ”Eunuch must be aware of the situation in the palace, I wonder if you could tell this wangfei about it?”
Fu Shun's face was solemn as he stood perfectly straight. He paid no attention to the purse that Baili Jinxiu had given him and instead looked at him and thought, ”When Prince and Princess Hua-Yang enter the palace, they will know. Don't make things difficult for this servant.”
Hearing Fu Shun's reply, Baili Jinxiu knew that the situation in the palace was definitely not good for him and Gong Xiaoxuan.
Last time, when he handed the lotus pouches to Fu Shun, Fu Shun had still accepted it with a fawning expression. But this time, he did not dare to take it, as he was afraid that it would involve him or that he had already stepped into someone else's camp. For example, Gong Xiaohan!
Baili Jinxiu pondered in his heart, but didn't show it on the surface, so he still maintained his appropriate smile.
”Since that's the case, wait for me to pack my things before entering the palace. Eunuch Fu Shun, please go down and wait.”
No matter what, Baili Jinxiu and Gong Xiaoxuan's statuses were already here, so Fu Shun did not have the guts to reject them. Since Fu Shun did not want to bet anymore, then Baili Jinxiu did not need to cover his face with his cold butt anymore.
Fu Shun was a little dissatisfied, but he suppressed his emotions and only said: ”Princess, as soon as possible, Emperor is still waiting in the palace.” He then followed the butler to wait.
Although Baili Jinxiu had told Gong Xiaoxuan that ”when the battle is imminent, when the battle is inevitable”, but if he was not prepared in the slightest, it would no longer be Baili Jinxiu's style.
After calling over the people from the Yolk Sect and the butler to instruct them, the both of them entered the palace.
”Greetings Emperor.” Baili Jinxiu bowed respectfully. Gong Xiaoxuan who was at the side slightly bent his body, but his body suddenly gave a cold snort, and looked to the side, to Baili Jinxiu's astonishment, it was Prince Jin Nie.
No matter how one put it, the assassination attempt was a matter of Great Yan Nation's own country, and with Crown Prince Jin Nie here, no matter how Baili Jinxiu looked at it, he could not help but feel suspicious.
”Daring Prince An, Baili Jinxiu, you actually colluded with an assassin to assassinate my Grean Yan Crown Prince, and even drugged him in an attempt to destroy the relationship between the two countries!”
Baili Jinxiu looked at Crown Prince Jin Nie in a daze. Was he referring to the bean powder that he had given a small punishment for yesterday? But seeing that Prince Jin Nie's face was only slightly pale, he did not seem to have been drugged.
Prince Jin Nie seemed to have seen through Baili Jinxiu's suspicions, and laughed coldly: ”Yesterday, I just drank a cup of water that Princess An passed to me, and then I fainted. Fortunately, my subordinates found out that I had fed them a lot of bean powder in time and used other methods to remove the poison. Otherwise, I would have been left with only a corpse today, and would not know how Great Yan Nation will account for it. ”
