Bai Zhixi looked at Prime Minister Qin's unpleasant face and laughed coldly in his heart.
Seeing that the evidence was conclusive, she wanted to see how Prime Minister Qin would clear the blame for the banquet.
”Princess, could you let this official see the jade pendant in your hand? ”This jade pendant feels familiar to this official, it actually does not belong to the banquet lord?”
Prime Minister Qin walked closer to Bai Zhixi, his face filled with smiles, as if he was extremely respectful to this princess.
Hearing that, Bai Zhixi's heart tightened, his face had a faint smile, he took out the jade pendant again, and showed it to everyone.
”Prime Minister Qin, this princess does not know why you are so interested in this assassin's item. However, since you like this jade pendant, I can make the royal father give you one. It would be unlucky if you are not interested in this assassin's item. If I didn't know, would I have thought that you were trying to protect them? The Prime Minister Qin was righteous, he was righteous for his country and his people, how could he be related to this villain? You say that, don't you? ”
The corner of Bai Zhixi's mouth curled into a cold smile. Looking at the countless changes on Prime Minister Qin's face due to her words, even though there was clearly an uncontrollable rage burning in his face, he could only bear with it.
”Yes, Your Highness.” This old official is completely loyal to the Emperor. ”
Prime Minister Qin's face was stiff, his chest felt like it was blocked by something, and he couldn't breathe properly, as he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
”Prime Minister Qin, don't worry. This princess will definitely investigate what happened today. I will never let a vicious person off, nor will I wrongly accuse a good person. This princess has her own plans. ”
Bai Zhixi said weakly, then got onto the horse carriage that Zhao Shangshu had once again prepared for her, and left.
Just as she got into the carriage, a wave of dizziness hit her. She tightly closed the window and did not fall down.
When Prime Minister Qin walked in with her just now, she seemed to smell a faintly discernible fragrance of flowers. Her heart started to become anxious and she felt drowsy.
It seems that Prime Minister Qin truly wants to catch the entire Nangong Family in one fell swoop!
After the mighty group left, the citizens also dispersed, leaving Prime Minister Qin and the rest standing on the spot, watching the carriage leave without leaving for a long time.
The news of Princess Southern Frontier's return seemed to have grown wings, in a short day, the entire world knew, and even added fuel to the fire for the chaos that was about to break out in the whole world.
In the Palace of Xi Liang, Empress Ye Shishuang was painting in the Glorious Imperial Palace.
Upon hearing this news, the ink on the tip of the brush trembled and sprinkled onto the girl's eyebrows. The ink added a trace of killing intent to the originally gentle lady, making her appear seductive and alluring.
”Empress's drawing skills have become much more stable now. I can't believe you're so young. Add a beauty mole to your face. When Empress was young, I'm afraid no one in the world could match you.”
Ye Shishuang's personal mama looked at the girl in the painting with bright eyes and white teeth, her eyes rippling with emotion. Her phoenix eyes were so gentle that it seemed as if water could flow out of them.
”Is that so? Mammy also thought he looked like me when I was young. It's a pity that time does not spare me. I am already old! ”
Ye Shishuang put down his brush, calmly sat on the step, and looked at the painting carefully.
Skin as white as snow, hair as black as ink, eyes like autumn water, eyebrows like distant mountains, nose like cherry lips.
Beautiful, dignified, and elegant.
From the age of thirty, he looked like a top twenty genius.
”Empress's words are wrong. The Empress was born with a beauty that could topple nations. Looking at the entire Xi Liang, how could they possibly find a woman that was on par with the Empress? ”No wonder he was able to receive the emperor's favor.”
The personal mama carefully walked behind her back and massaged her shoulders.
Seeing that she was in such a good mood, she couldn't help but praise herself.
As servants, they had to think of ways to please their masters at all times.
After Ye Shishuang heard her words, he felt completely refreshed. Once he happily gave some silver to the mama, he immediately chased her out.
She looked at the person in the painting with a slightly angry look in her beautiful eyes. The hand holding the painting trembled, then she threw the painting on the ground and mercilessly stepped on it.
”So many years have passed, but you still can't defeat me in the end! In other words, everything you've had since you were young was given to you by me. Only I am worthy of the supreme authority.
Ye Shishuang dropped to the ground and sat next to the painting.
Looking at the picture in her hands, it was actually Bai Zhixi's appearance.
There was an additional trace of autumn waves that were as gentle as water between his brows, and the beauty mole on his forehead was not as eye-catching as the red plum blossom on Bai Zhixi's forehead.
If he lost that beauty mole, he would be Bai Zhixi's mother — Ye Shixue. She would look exactly the same as Xi Liang Queen Ye Shishuang.
”Empress, this state advisor requests an audience!”
The palace maid's voice sounded at the right time, pulling her thoughts back, she raised her head and saw Fu Lingtian walk in.
He was still dressed in black, and his eyes were cold. His silvery-white hair gave him the appearance of an immortal, giving him the aura of a cool breeze.
”When the channel heard that the empress was in a good mood today, she acted like she was when she was young and purposely came to take a peek.”
Fu Lingtian squatted down and took the portrait of the beauty from her hands, his eyes revealing a look of astonishment.
