C90 (2/2)

Dongfang Yao squatted in front of the empress dowager, worry and helplessness on her elegant and beautiful face. But it also clearly told everyone that An Lan's identity wasn't simple, and she wasn't someone that a mere maidservant could beat to death.

Worry surfaced on Shangguan Jingyan's elegant face. As Bai Zhixi's good sister, she was naturally worried about how Bai Zhixi would settle this issue. This was related to her life and death.

However, if Bai Zhiru's future was affected because of this matter, she would definitely not let Bai Zhixi go. His heart was thinking of returning to the clan quickly after a while, to let his father remove Bai Zhixi's name from the clan, and chase her out of the Prime Minister's Estate. This way, even if she made a mistake to wipe out the Nine Tribes, it would have nothing to do with them.

”Chang De, send more people to look for the location of the maidservant. Remember to make sure to make the movements of the people under your command be gentler. Chen'er and Mo'er, go and take a look at Bai Zhixi's courtyard and see if Commander Chang's words are true or not. ”

”Yes …”

After she finished speaking, the empress dowager's hands lightly tapped her forehead as she was helped out of the courtyard by the palace maids.

Seeing this, Jun Mohan and the rest all knew what the empress dowager's intentions were, and could only answer respectfully.

”Royal Grandmother, if you don't punish Bai Zhixi for allowing the servant girl to kill, how will I explain this to my uncle? ”You should know Uncle's temper, he …”

Everyone had just reached the door when they heard Dongfang Yao's idiotic question. There was a hint of unwillingness in his voice.

”That's enough, I have yet to find the servant who beat Bai Zhixi, and I don't have a clear understanding of the matter. Furthermore, whether Bai Zhixi was previously stupid or pretending to be stupid and deceive the imperial family, I have yet to find out. An Lan was only a concubine. Even if she were to be beaten to death, she wouldn't be able to take Bai Zhixi's life as a direct daughter. Could it be that Imperial Uncle could kill me alone as an old woman? Hui Xiang, bring the princess down and serve her well. You are not allowed to come out without my orders. ”

The empress dowager slowly turned around, her gaze staring calmly ahead. Her expression was at ease, but the words spat out from her beautifully shaped lips were like ice slags. The calmness that could not be any calmer flowed out from her mouth.

The empress dowager finished speaking and walked towards the direction of the abbot.

”Yes, granddaughter knows her wrongs.”

Dongfang Yao was so scared that she quickly lied on the ground and didn't even take a deep breath. The empress dowager's words still flowed in her ears, but her heart still palpitated in fear. She respectfully bowed in the direction that the empress dowager had walked. Then, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked down like a soft cloud.

How could she forget that although her royal grandmother doted on her a lot, she was not the real mother of royal father. Naturally, she didn't put her uncle and his family in her eyes, and she never cared about how she felt.

”Alright, you were too impulsive just now. How could you threaten her with your uncle in front of the emperor's grandma? Furthermore, Xi Er is not the type of person you think she is. I hope you will try to treat her sincerely. After all, we need to get along in the future. ”

Dongfang Chen looked at his sister, whose eyes were filled with tears and body was shivering uncontrollably. Originally, he should have comforted her a little, but when he thought about how she wanted Bai Zhixi to die so much, he couldn't think of anything to say.

He could only silently pat her shoulders and slowly leave with Jun Mohan.

Everyone knew about her conflict with Bai Zhixi. It was just that at this critical juncture, there was no conclusive evidence to prove that Lan Yi beating An Lan to death. Previously, Bai Zhixi had played the fool and lied to everyone.

Furthermore, the empress dowager's reply was unfathomable. From her attitude towards Bai Zhixi, everyone thought that she would definitely not show mercy to him. But to think that he would make such a declaration, and end the warning by those people who wanted to secretly frame Bai Zhixi.

Dongfang Yao saw that her own brother was actually helping an outsider. She suddenly felt sad in her heart. Tears streamed down her face like a waterfall, unable to be stopped.

”Princess Yao, don't cry. I believe Chen-gege didn't say that on purpose. Now that we have angered Esteemed Empress Dowager, we have to wait for the results. If Bai Zhixi is truly pretending to fool everyone, then I will definitely not let her off. will definitely give her the most painful lesson, and avenge you. ”

Bai Zhiru carefully supported Dongfang Yao as they walked back to the small courtyard. As his smile deepened, the corners of his eyes became more and more handsome. A cold look appeared on her elegant face, as cold as the winter moon. The corner of her mouth was drawn in a sharp, cold arc, as vicious words slowly flowed out from her mouth.

”Yeah, cousin, what is the use of crying here? Maybe she, Bai Zhixi, is hiding somewhere and laughing secretly? It's only because you feel bad about hurting your body. ”

As soon as Bai Zhiru finished speaking, she looked Situ Lingwei in the eye and understood the advantages and disadvantages of telling Dongfang Yao about what had happened. But it had also deepened Dongfang Yao's hatred for Bai Zhixi.
