Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Yan Xiaoxi had heard the conversation of the other palace maids. The content of the conversation was to express her dissatisfaction with the Jade Pendant Palace Maiden. This was because the food and accommodation of the Jade Pendant Palace Maiden Palace maids were more important than the rest.

Therefore, they all felt that the palace maid had a backer. They were right, the backer of the palace maid was the Liu Family.

The palace maid seemed to be the daughter who had died prematurely as mentioned by Liu Zhitian. The reason he did so must be because he wanted the Jade Pendant Palace Maiden to find out more information in the palace and help the Liu Family develop.

"The jade pendant can still be used, but the blood relation cannot be erased." As long as they were blood-related, they would know whether the two of them were sisters or not.

Hearing that, Liu Zhixue was completely stunned. She hurriedly looked in Liu Zhitian's direction, clearly seeking help.

Liu Zhitian's reaction was rather calm. His face was expressionless as he replied with a question, "A drop of blood is fine. If Xue'er and the palace maid are not sisters, then this general will pay for the head of Princess Lin."

Liu Zhitian thought that this would make Yan Xiaoxi retreat, but who would have thought that she would actually agree without hesitation. "Okay."

Yan Xiaoxi had never backed down when it came to matters she was confident in. Her performance had once again shocked everyone.

This courage, this boldness, and this self-confidence, only a few people in the world could do it.

By the side, Nangong Lin once again had a whole new level of respect for Yan Xiaoxi. He felt like he had married a treasure. This woman was like a hidden treasure, causing others to be curious about her.

"Your majesty, please let us have the water and the dagger." Nangong Xiao looked at the Minister of Imperial Household who was standing beside her. He immediately took action.

Very quickly, the things that Yan Xiaoxi had ordered were placed in front of everyone's eyes.

"Please." Yan Xiaoxi smiled playfully.

Liu Zhitian was out of breath. He really didn't expect that Yan Xiaoxi would have such a reaction. Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to bet their life on it, even if they were completely confident.

Even he himself wouldn't dare to do so, yet Yan Xiaoxi did.

Liu Zhixue and Liu Zhitian looked at each other. Since they had already reached this point, what else could they do?

"What are you doing?" Nangong Lin swept his gaze at the palace maid. That ice-cold gaze of his caused the palace maid to involuntarily shiver.

Immediately, the palace maid made her move. Tuntun came to the center of the hall and picked up her dagger, preparing to cut her finger.

It was at this moment that Liu Zhixue suddenly shouted, "I remember now, you're Wu Fei's sister. You set me up on purpose."

Liu Zhixue was extremely emotional. Before anyone could react, she had already rushed to the palace maid's side, shaking her body. While everyone was unprepared, she desperately winked at the palace maid.

The palace maids were at a loss as they looked at the crazed Liu Zhixue in front of them, completely stupefied.

"Your brother adored me but was rejected by me. He committed suicide, so you came to avenge him." Liu Zhixue continued.

Hearing this, the palace maid finally understood what Liu Zhixue meant, and said in realization, "I don't know what Miss Liu is talking about."

"Your majesty, you have to uphold justice for Xue'er. She's the one who framed me." Liu Zhixue dropped to her knees.

Nangong Xiao still had not figured out what had happened. Everything had happened too suddenly.

Yan Xiaoxi stood on the spot and did not interrupt them. She looked at Liu Zhixue as if she was watching a show. She wanted to see how Liu Zhixue would resolve this situation, get rid of the evidence, and at the same time satisfy everyone.

Then, Liu Zhixue told him about how Wu Fei had pestered him, harassed him, and followed her.

"So that's how it is. The palace maid poisoned Miss Liu because she wanted to avenge her brother. She also unintentionally picked up the jade pendant." After Liu Zhixue's farce, who would still remember that they were going to drip blood and test their parents?

Everyone's attention was attracted by her story, and they had long since thrown the bet between Liu Zhitian and Yan Xiaoxi far away.

"Your majesty, this old man can confirm that everything Xue'er said is true." Liu Zhitian seized the opportunity and quickly complied.

Even so, this reason was too far-fetched, and most of them still held doubts.

Of course, Liu Zhixue had also realized this. Thus, while everyone was looking at Nangong Lin, she used her lips to signal a palace maid who was a few steps away.

The palace maid understood what he meant, as she gripped the dagger in her hand and thrust it towards Liu Zhixue.

Sssii.

Everyone could hear the sound of a sharp weapon piercing into their flesh. When they reacted, they discovered that the palace maid had stabbed into Liu Zhixue's body with a dagger.

As for Liu Zhixue, her body was covered in blood as she lay on the ground, gasping for air.

"Xue'er." Liu Zhitian rushed over and struck the body of the palace maid with his palm. That palm used inner force and sent the palace maid flying. She crashed into a pillar in the hall and died on the spot.

"Doctor Xuan, hurry and announce the doctor." The nervous Liu Zhitian had forgotten that the imperial physician was present at the scene early in the morning.

The imperial physician hurried forward to check on Liu Zhixue. After carefully inspecting her, he looked at Liu Zhitian and said, "The stab is not deep, there's no danger to her life."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhitian finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"Your majesty, this humble subject needs a room to draw Miss Liu's sabre." The imperial physician clenched his fists and gave Nangong Xiao his report.

Time like this was a crucial point. If they dealt with it well, Liu Zhixue's life would be saved. If she did not handle it well, her life would be in danger at any time.

Under the current situation, he had no way of telling Liu Zhitian the truth. Otherwise, he would only receive more interference and influence.

At that time, perhaps Liu Zhixue would really lose too much blood and die.

Just like that, Liu Zhixue was heavily injured. She was carried out in front of everyone, and the palace maid was also killed by Liu Zhitian. This matter had unknowingly shifted its focus, so it left it at that.

Yan Xiaoxi's only feeling towards the outcome of this matter was that it was finally over and she could finally eat.

As the banquet drew to a close, the ministers returned home, apprehensive.

It was already late in the night, so Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin were temporarily staying at the Imperial Palace.

In the corridor, Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi were walking side by side.

Yan Xiaoxi continued to eat the green bean cake in her hand, completely ignoring Nangong Lin, who was beside her. From start to finish, she did not give him a single glance.

Nangong Lin understood. He already knew Yan Xiaoxi's temperament very well. This woman must be angry.

He was usually lively and lively, chattering non-stop. Only when he was angry would he be so quiet.

"Woman." Nangong Lin shouted.

Yan Xiaoxi's reaction was the same as usual. She purposely ignored him and continued to eat her green bean cake.

Hmph, she wouldn't bother with him. Why would she follow him? Why don't you look at the old girl in her hand?

"Are you angry with This King?" This answer was already very clear.
