"What about your class leader? Didn't he plead for Xueyan?"
Xue Ying's tears, which had just stopped flowing, burst out again: "Before the class owner could even plead for mercy, my sister died."
"Have you told the class leader about Xueyan discovering the man from Southern Xinjiang in Mingyue Palace?"
"Yeah." Xue Ying nodded. "But the class owner wouldn't let me tell anyone after hearing this. Even the class owner isn't willing to step forward. My sister's grievances can't be redressed. Woo woo—"
Xueying was just a child after all. After enduring for so long, he finally burst into tears.
Ji Xingyao sighed helplessly and took out a handkerchief to wipe his face: "Don't cry, don't tell anyone what you said to me today, not even the class owner."
"Ah."
Xueying no longer has any admiration for the class owner. If the class owner can't even protect his sister, what kind of class owner is he?
A child's love and hate are very pure, and now he hates the class owner.
"Xue Ying, your sister's matter is of great importance. It's beyond the ability of a mere maid like me to resolve. You should return quickly, leave the palace as soon as possible, and live a good life after you are out."
How could Xueying, who had been making a living in a drama troupe since childhood, not know this truth? He was just desperate and trying all kinds of methods.
After crying uncontrollably, Xueying didn't feel so bad anymore.
"Thank you, sister. Goodbye."
Xueying bowed to Ji Xingyao and quickly ran out of the rockery.
Ji Xingyao waited for a while until she could no longer hear Xue Ying's footsteps, then she stood up. She did not linger and went straight back to Yonghe Palace.
After listening to Ji Xingyao's words, Wen Yuan calmly analyzed:
"The Southern Xinjiang man who appeared in the Yonghe Palace cellar might be the same Southern Xinjiang man who kidnapped you outside the palace."
Ji Xingyao agreed: "And I suspect that the real murderer of Yao Wenchang is him."
Wen Yuan frowned, the possibility was indeed very high.
The people of southern Xinjiang are doing so many things in secret, I'm afraid there will be trouble.
Ji Xingyao breathed a sigh of relief: "The more chaotic the better, it saves me from racking my brains to resolve the conflict."
She was happy for a while, but she didn't forget to remind Wen Yuan: "The fact that Amire cheated on Li Zhao must not be made public. With his temper, all those people in Mingyue Palace will be buried with him. This way, I won't have the knife to kill you."
Wen Yuan nodded.
"It's such a pity for Xueyan, she was buried in a cannibalistic harem at such a young age."
Ji Xingyao thought of the two siblings of the Xue family and couldn't help but sigh.
"Everyone has his own destiny, and you can't force it."
Wen Yuan's expression was calm, as he was no longer surprised by such things.
She was deeply trapped in her own predicament and unable to save herself, so how could she save others?
Suhe Hall.
Master Li stood in front of the prince, his eyes slightly red.
Li Zhao consoled her, "Master Li, please accept my condolences. I will redress Miss Xueyan's innocence in the future."
Master Li clenched his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xueyan was just an unnoticed chess piece in the game. She entered the game by mistake and was eliminated silently.
"Eunuch Zhou, are the rewards ready? Send them to Master Li's courtyard."
"Reporting to the Emperor, the rewards have been packed and the carriages are ready. The Li family troupe can leave the palace at any time."
Troupe leader Li successfully completed the task and left with the troupe.
The Mingyue Palace, which had been performing operas for seven days, was now so quiet that there was no sound at all.
At this time, Amire's room was crowded with people.
"Pa." Amire slapped Daranti in the face.
"Why is Mai Erdan in Mingyue Palace? When did he come? Why didn't he tell me?"
Before Daranti could speak, she slapped him again, and blood immediately seeped out of the corner of Daranti's mouth.
"How dare you tease me like this? I will report this to my father and have him kill you."
Ami was so angry that his rationality was completely burned away by anger.
She pulled out the whip from her waist and raised her hand to hit Daranti.
"Princess!"
Merdan, who had been silent for a long time, grabbed her wrist and blocked the whip.
"Don't touch me, it's disgusting." Amire glared at Merdan fiercely, his eyes full of disgust.
Merdan put down his hand silently.
"I shouldered the mission of marrying into the royal family and becoming the bond of peace between Southern Xinjiang and the Taifeng Dynasty, yet you want to harm me. Why don't you wait until I ascend the throne before doing what you want to do?"
"Ha!" A sneer rang out.
Amire looked at the person who sneered - Daranti - in disbelief.
"Do you think Emperor Taifeng would make a princess from an enemy country his empress? He already has a queen chosen, the one in Yonghe Palace."
Amire had not yet recovered from Daranti's insubordination, and was frightened by her words and stepped back repeatedly.
She pointed at Daranti and said, "You're talking nonsense. The ceremony to crown the queen will be in two months. The Ministry of Rites has been preparing for it. I will soon become the queen of the Taifeng Dynasty."
"Two months can change a lot of things. Counting on my fingers, it was about a month after the imperial concubine gave birth."
Amire didn't understand what Daranti meant: "So what? She is just a concubine, and she dares to ride on the queen's head."
Tsk tsk, idiot.
Daranti looked at her as if she were a pitiful creature.
"Do you know why Wen Yuan, as the Crown Princess, was not made Queen?"
"The Emperor doesn't love her."
Seeing that Amire was still stubborn, Daranti simply broke her last fantasy: "When the previous Emperor Taifeng, Li Taiming, passed the throne to Li Zhao, the imperial edict clearly stated that the person who became the empress must have children. Wen Yuan has been married to the emperor for many years and has never been pregnant. This imperial edict was tailor-made for Wen Yuan, preventing her from becoming the empress."
Back then, the fight for the throne among several princes caused turmoil in the city and resulted in countless casualties. Wen Yuan, as Li Zhao's half-military advisor, was the primary contributor in supporting Li Zhao to ascend the throne.
Li Taiming didn't like Wen Yuan, and before he died, he set up this barrier specifically for Wen Yuan.
Who would have thought that eight years later, the iron tree would blossom and she would be pregnant.
Li Zhao was busy preparing for the queen's coronation ceremony just for Wen Yuan.
"Impossible, you lied to me, impossible!"
Amire didn't believe Daranti's words at all.
"Father has clearly signed a contract with him, how could he change his mind?"
When mentioning the King of Southern Xinjiang, Daranti and Merdan looked at each other.
"You are nothing but bait for the king."
