Chapter 35: My grandfather guarded the frontier, but I was bullied here
"What a guts!"
Concubine Jing immediately became angry, "It's just a young lady from the Xia Mansion, who dares to be so arrogant in front of the emperor, and dare me to give you an explanation?" β
Nangong Ye didn't say anything, but his face also sank, it was black, almost dripping ink, those eyes stared at Xia Jin deadly, if it weren't for the fact that this was a palace banquet, it is estimated that Nangong Ye would have already made a move on Xia Jin.
"Huh."
Xia Jin sneered, "I have a clear conscience, why can't I let you give me an explanation?" β
Without waiting for Concubine Jing to answer, Xia Jin directly shifted her gaze to Emperor Aoyue, "Your Majesty, my grandfather is stationed on the frontier to protect the safety of my Aoyue Kingdom, and I, as his granddaughter, the eldest lady of the Xia Mansion, was charged with murdering the Queen Mother during this palace banquet...
I also hope that the emperor will administer justice for me. β
The woman's words were convincing, her little face was tense and tight, and her face was cold, but there were tears flashing in those peach blossom eyes, obviously wronged to the extreme, but she was strong and did not let the tears fall.
Xiao Baiyu raised his eyebrows slightly, stared at the corners of her slightly hooked mouth, and chuckled.
This girl is not small.
Emperor Aoyue's eyebrows jumped, he looked at Xia Jin with dark eyes, but he sighed in his heart, this eldest lady of Xia Mansion is completely different from the rumors, and even she has the shadow of her father Xiahou and the momentum of General Xia.
Concubine Jing didn't expect Xia Jin to dare to refute, she hurriedly looked sideways at Emperor Aoyue, but when she saw Emperor Aoyue thinking about things with calm eyelids, Concubine Jing's heart suddenly hung up, and she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't listen to her nonsense, she..."
"Concubine Jing."
The Queen Mother spoke and interrupted Concubine Jing's words, "This is indeed something you did inappropriately. β
Concubine Jing's face changed suddenly, and she looked back at the Queen Mother in confusion.
"Queen Mother, I..."
"Concubine Jing, knowing your mistakes can improve a lot, since it's your fault, you should know what to do, right?"
Concubine Jing: Know a yarn!
Concubine Jing clenched her fists, her face full of disbelief.
The fact that the Queen Mother can't see red has long been spread throughout the palace, and just now the Queen Mother did feel uncomfortable when she saw Xia Jin appear, but the Queen Mother just said that it was not about Xia Jin, and even loved peonies the most, and the entire Cining Palace ordered the Queen Mother, who was full of peonies, to say that she hated peonies!
Even now he is still on Xia Jin's side?!
Concubine Jing looked at Emperor Aoyue for help, but was blocked by the queen on the side, the queen smiled at Concubine Jing, and said with a bit of accusation: "Concubine Jing, the queen mother said that she was just lacking, but you continued to target Xia Jin, she is Ye'er's fiancΓ©e." β
Concubine Jing's face turned pale.
This queen has always been at odds with her, so she won't let go of this opportunity to count her down.
However, it is impossible for her to apologize to Xia Jin for that waste!!
Xia Jin squinted her eyes, obviously not the slightest surprise at what the Queen Mother said to her.
The Queen Mother's nightmare every night was entangled by evil ghosts, and the resentment of the ghost that surrounded the Queen Mother's black gas, and she just let the Queen Mother see something... And the Queen Mother originally believed in ghosts and gods, so she changed her attitude.
But...
The ghost that entangles the Queen Mother doesn't seem to be so simple...
"Queen, this marriage contract of the second prince doesn't count."
Prime Minister Ye Cheng's words interrupted Xia Jin's thoughts, Xia Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Prime Minister Ye.
Prime Minister Ye had a cold face, he glanced at the queen with a little displeasure, and then his eyes fell on Emperor Aoyue's body, "Your Majesty, please cancel the marriage contract between those two." β
The tone was firm, and it was clearly a bit threatening.
