Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Liu Zhixue's attitude was also astounding. With so many civil and military officials present today, even Yan Xiaoxi might not be able to keep this a secret, not to mention that Liu Zhixue had long been prepared for this.

Last time, she had witnessed Yan Xiaoxi's methods and abilities. This time, she wanted to use her own methods to deal with her opponent and let Yan Xiaoxi understand one thing. She, Liu Zhixue, was not someone to be trifled with.

Yan Xiaoxi stood on the spot. She could tell at a glance that Liu Zhixue was being arrogant, retracting her delicate and touching disguise and revealing her true colors.

She had thought that she would really be able to become Nangong Lin's second wife and flaunt her strength and go against her. However, things were often not as simple as she had imagined.

"What is Miss Liu doing?" These words were obviously a little excessive. The crowd didn't understand, why did Yan Xiaoxi do this?

Isn't the truth obvious? Liu Zhixue had seduced Prince Lin, attempting to provoke him to Princess Lin's bottom line.

"I'm sorry, little sister imperial concubine. Prince Lin and I can't help it, so …" The rest of the words, Liu Zhixue had deliberately left everyone with room to imagine.

The man lying on the bed still had his eyes closed, as if he was too tired to wake up.

Yan Xiaoxi furrowed her brows, gritted her teeth and spat from the bed, "I can't help it."

The reason why you refused to marry me at the Cloud Lai Inn was because you didn't want to hurt Princess Lin. That's right, Brother Lin did indeed have feelings for me, but she loved Princess Lin even more. She couldn't bear to see you get hurt in the slightest, so I will properly serve little sister imperial concubine. Liu Zhixue's words brought tears to her eyes. It was truly pitiful, but she had clearly thought through her future stand.

She didn't want to be pampered, so why did she climb onto Nangong Lin's bed and have a relationship with him? If she didn't want to fall in love, then she wouldn't step half a step into the manor.

Imperial Concubine Xiao cast a sidelong glance at Liu Zhixue and could not help but sigh. She had not realized that Liu Zhixue's methods were so powerful in the past. Yan Xiaoxi might not be a match for her.

This won't do, she had finally managed to get hold of Yan Xiaoxi with great difficulty, she couldn't just let her efforts fail and let her help Yan Xiaoxi.

"Xi Er, the banquet is about to start. Bring Prince Lin away."

Imperial Concubine Xiao wanted to ask her to be magnanimous, and to treat this matter as if it had never happened. As long as the news was sealed, as long as everyone didn't say anything, no matter who it was, Liu Zhixue would not be able to stir up any trouble.

"Xi Er appreciates the esteemed imperial concubine's kindness. I'll personally drive out the wolf that I've brought in Princess Lin." Yan Xiaoxi had confidence in herself.

Furthermore, Imperial Concubine Xiao's method was not feasible. She could already hear the hurried footsteps in her ears. It was likely that Nangong Xiao had brought along a hundred civil and military officials.

He couldn't suppress this matter.

Even if she wanted to swallow her anger, it didn't mean that she could solve the problem.

"What happened?" An incomparably dignified voice rang out from within the room.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a bright yellow figure walking towards them.

"Greetings, your Imperial Majesty." Everyone in the room said in unison, including Liu Zhixue.

"Your majesty." Imperial Concubine Xiao ran to Nangong Xiao's side and took his arm.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Nangong Xiao's eyes were cold as she questioned Liu Zhixue who was lying on the ground.

"Your Majesty, this humble daughter, I am Prince Lin …" "So we will …" Liu Zhixue stuttered for a long while, but still did not manage to say a single word.

At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi stood up and replied, "Imperial Father, I'll be the one to tell you."

Nangong Xiao nodded. Seeing the composed Yan Xiaoxi, she could not help but be surprised. How could this child be so calm? After hearing the servant's report, he had also guessed what had happened.

He had come here to seek justice for Yan Xiaoxi.

Now that she looked at it, she did not seem to be very sad. It seemed that she did not mind the matter of Nangong Lin and Liu Zhixue.

"Miss Liu said that little Linlin and her couldn't help but enter the bridal chamber." Yan Xiaoxi's words were calm like water, without any ripples. It was as if she was narrating the matters of someone else. She was so calm that it made people feel that something was amiss.

Liu Zhixue also felt calm towards Yan Xiaoxi's behavior. If the same thing had happened to her, she would have long been like the Emperor complaining that she wanted to execute the seductress who seduced Brother Lin, rather than standing on the spot and doing nothing.

The raw rice was used to cook the ripe rice. Everything was like water poured out from a well, hard to come by.

"Liu Zhixue, is that so?" Nangong Xiao's voice turned colder. Back then, she had only allowed Nangong Lin to save her life. Who knew that this woman was just like Liu Zhitian. She could not be at ease. She had to be the villain.

"Your majesty, please punish me. It was because I was in a moment of passion and couldn't defend my line of defense that Big Brother Lin …" Liu Zhixue did not retort as arrogantly as before. Instead, she used a pitiful acting tactic.

"I heard that a few days ago, Princess Lin and Miss Liu fell into the water at the same time. The person Prince Lin saved was Miss Liu. Perhaps, Prince Lin really has a deep affection for Miss Liu." The speaker of a minister has his own opinion.

"I also heard that Prince Lin promised publicly that he would only have Princess Lin as his mistress at the Cloudfall Inn. This …"

"Seems to be a contradiction, a conflict." Another minister spoke up.

"Yes!" The crowd nodded and could not help but feel disappointed with Nangong Lin's performance.

It was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that Nangong Lin was a prince. No one would say anything about a concubine and a concubine, and no one would dare say anything about it.

What was going on now?

What do you want to do?

"Your majesty, it's all my fault. It has nothing to do with Prince Lin. You'll kill me, right?" Liu Zhixue suddenly pounced towards Nangong Xiao's side and tightly grabbed onto the corner of his clothes.

That devastatingly beautiful face was covered in tears as she cried like a pear flower in a storm, causing people to be unable to help but cherish her.

The reaction from inside the room was very loud. The man lying on the bed still did not have any reaction. It was clear that he had worked very hard with Liu Zhixue.

Nangong Xiao kicked Liu Zhixue away in disgust and asked Yan Xiaoxi, "Xi Er, how do you think we should deal with this?"

Everyone thought that she would slap her angrily a few times. Unexpectedly, Yan Xiaoxi stooped down and helped Liu Zhixue up, saying, "As long as little Linlin agrees to marry big sister Liu, this concubine has no objections."

Look at how wise they were in the Southern Water Kingdom, Princess Lin. Not only were they beautiful, but they also had a broad mind and a kind heart.

He didn't know what Prince Lin was thinking either. Was he willing to hurt such a considerate wangfei?

"Xi Er?" Although she looked naive, she was not someone who could be easily bullied. Back then, it was clear from the crown prince's birthday banquet that Yan Xiaoxi was very smart, smart to the point of concealing her wisdom.

Why was his actions this time out of his expectations?
