Chapter 343 Face to Face

Xue Qing looked at the door that was about to open. The door opened, and at the same time, a bright yellow robe appeared.

The emperor looked at Xue Qing with cold eyes. When the door was fully opened, Xue Qing saw the imperial teacher who was still masked behind the emperor.

Xue Qing took a few steps back and the emperor walked in slowly.

The emperor no longer had his former kindness, and his face was now full of indifference.

The emperor and Xue Qing stood face to face. Xue Qing's eyes were full of stubbornness and anger. Facing this man who was determined to kill her, she really did not show the slightest respect.

Since the relationship had already fallen out, Xue Qing felt that there was no need to be polite to him anymore.

The emperor looked at Xue Qing coldly and said in a cold tone: "Xia Xueqing, since you don't belong to this world, you must die. But before you die, I want to see your true face. The Imperial Master once told me that your appearance must not be like this now."

Xue Qing smiled mockingly and said fearlessly: "You are the emperor, but it turns out you are just a puppet of the imperial teacher."

The imperial teacher standing by was furious when he heard Xue Qing's words. He stepped forward and cursed, "You bold witch, how dare you sow discord." As he spoke, he was about to assassinate Xue Qing again.

Xue Qing looked at the Imperial Master, his eyes full of contempt: "What? Did I get it right? Are you feeling guilty?"

The emperor frowned slightly, looked at Xue Qing and said, "Xia Xueqing, stop talking nonsense. What the Imperial Master said must have a reason. Who are you? Why are you here?"

Xue Qing sneered, "Your Majesty, since you have determined that I am not from this world, why bother asking so many questions? You are going to kill me anyway."

The emperor was silent for a moment, then said, "I just want to know the truth."

Xue Qing said: "The truth? The truth is that your national teacher made up a lie for his own selfish reasons and wanted to kill me. And you actually believed his words."

The Imperial Master glared at Xue Qing and said, "Your Majesty, this woman is spreading rumors and misleading people. You must not listen to her. She must be a demon and must be eliminated as soon as possible."

Xue Qing looked at the emperor and the imperial teacher, sneered in her heart, and said: "It seems that the people who have been trying to assassinate me are you two. It seems that you have known my identity for a long time."

But the Xue family was still thinking about how to protect me. I didn't expect that just because of an inexplicable prophecy from the national teacher, the newborn baby would die. The old Duke had no choice but to let Gao Yi send Xia Xueqing to a farmer's house.

Emperor: "Since you know that I want to kill you, I advise you to die obediently"

The Imperial Master said quickly: "Your Majesty is wise. This woman is an ominous person who will bring endless disasters to the country."

Xue Qing laughed angrily: "Are you sick? You want to kill me, but you want me to die obediently. Let's see who will die today!"

After a pause, Xue Qing continued, "You said I was a witch and that I was bad for the Great Zhou. Since you said so, I would be sorry if I didn't make it happen."

The emperor fell into deep thought. He looked at Xue Qing and his heart began to waver.

He didn't know whether he had really done something wrong, but the words of the national teacher made him hesitant.

When the Imperial Master saw that the Emperor was actually hesitating, he said anxiously, "Your Majesty, you must not listen to the nonsense of this witch. If she is still here, the Great Zhou will never have peace!"

The national teacher advised earnestly.

Xue Qing really wanted to see what kind of face was underneath the mask; it was so thick!

The emperor made up his mind: "Master, kill her!"

The Imperial Master drew the soft sword from his waist and stabbed at Xue Qing, but Xue Qing dodged it.

The emperor quickly retreated to the door and was about to go out. Xue Qingxu shook her head and led the imperial teacher to a corner. She jumped and flew to the emperor's side.

He quickly stuffed a jade pendant into the emperor's belt, then quickly stepped into the space.

The emperor saw Xue Qing disappear beside him with his own eyes. He originally thought that Xue Qing ran out through the door behind him, so he said to the Imperial Master: "Imperial Master, she is out."

The emperor pointed to the door.

Afterwards, the two of them walked out of the secret room one after the other. They searched the entire palace but couldn't find a single person.

"Your Majesty, the witch is no longer afraid of us. She can disappear out of thin air," the imperial teacher said angrily.

The emperor walked out of the palace and ordered his guards to search the palace.

There was a panic in the palace for a while, and the concubines in the harem didn't know what was going on.

Seeing the emperor coming out of the palace with a gloomy face, Li Jun hurried forward and asked attentively: "Your Majesty, do you want to return to the bedroom?" The emperor nodded slightly. Li Jun hurriedly helped the emperor into the sedan chair, and the personal soldiers quickly protected him around.

The sedan chair moved forward slowly, and when it reached Fengyi Palace, the emperor suddenly stopped it.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something, then got off the sedan and walked in.

At this moment, Nanny Liu, who came hurriedly, bumped into the emperor who was walking in. When Nanny Liu saw the emperor, she was so scared that she knelt down and begged for mercy.

The emperor was knocked off balance by the impact and was supported by Li Jun who was standing beside him. He then loudly rebuked him: "You bold servant!"

The emperor waved his hand and said, "You leave." Then he slowly walked into the palace.

The emperor walked around Fengyi Palace with a complicated expression on his face. Without saying anything, he walked out of the palace.

After Nanny Liu saw the emperor off, she looked down and saw a jade pendant on the ground.

She picked it up and looked around carefully, but there was no one there.

This jade pendant did not look like a royal jade pendant. Nanny Liu was puzzled but did not dare to say anything. She put it in her arms. After finishing her work, she returned to the house and placed the jade pendant on the cabinet beside the bed.

At night, Xue Qing came out of the space.

She discovered a new function of space, which could be placed on the jade pendant, and the space could move with the movement of the jade pendant.

She searched everywhere in the palace for clues, trying to find a way to escape.

Finally, he returned to Aunt Liu's room. When he saw Aunt Liu's appearance, his heart moved. Xue Qing found that Aunt Liu and her mother-in-law looked quite similar.

She felt a sense of familiarity in her heart. Her mother-in-law, Liu, was Wu Yu's wet nurse in the palace. It was not easy for her to be a wet nurse for the queen's son. If this Madam Liu was the queen's capable person, then it was understandable that Liu came to the palace to be the prince's wet nurse.

Xue Qing decided to find a breakthrough from Nanny Liu. Early the next morning, Nanny Liu started to get busy.

Xue Qing gently knocked on Nanny Liu's door.

Madam Liu opened the door and saw a strange woman who was not wearing the usual clothes of a palace maid. She asked cautiously, "Who are you? What's the matter?"

Xue Qing smiled slightly and said, "Madam Liu, do you know Liu Xu?"

Aunt Liu looked at Xue Qing in shock, then stuck her head out to see that there was no one around, and said to Xue Qing, "Come in first."

Xue Qing followed Nanny Liu into Fengyi Palace.

I only heard Aunt Liu's voice trembling as she asked, "Do you know Liu Xu?"

Xue Qing said: "Madam Liu, it seems you don't know yet that Liu Xu has returned to the capital with the Queen's son, and the Emperor already knows..."

Xue Qing briefly told Madam Liu about Wu Yu's situation.
