The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 905 What the Reason Is
Oi! I am an article!
Ji Xingfeng who was in the bottom position only squinted her eyes, silently taking into account in her heart, Ji Xingyun finally started to care about Ye Wushuang's matter.
“In reply to the Emperor, the remark was true, there was indeed such a woman by my side.”
Oi! I am an article!
“Who is he?” Emperor Qi's tone of voice became a little cold and solemn, his eyes looking a little incredulous.
Ji Xingfeng looked at him flatly, that handsome face was not panicked at all: “Emperors have seen him before, at the Emperor's blessing ceremony, she was a holy woman in Shengdu.”
“Reacted him?” Ji Xingyun raised her eyebrows, silently laughing inwardly, it turned out that the person she had been looking for for the past 6 months was in the hands of Prince Ping.
“Ya, that's him.”
Oi! I am an article!
“Why can he be in your hands?” Ji Xingyun's tone of voice seemed indifferent, but there was a hidden inner meaning.
Ji Xingfeng was also not a fool, she then explained in a deep and calm voice: “At that time, the holy maiden was chased and wanted to be killed by a group of black-clothed assassins, I coincidentally passed by that place and saved him. For the sake of returning the favor to me for saving his life, he was willing to become a servant, he has been by my side for the past 6 months.”
Emperor Qi thought carefully, at first he asked Liu Jin the bodyguard to take the girl away after he left Shengdu, unfortunately others had already acted first. Then, the trace of the holy maiden disappeared, although Ji Xingyun did not give up on her search, but she did not get any news of the holy maiden at all. She never expected that the holy girl had been saved by Ji Xingfeng.
“There is a woman who is very similar to Queen Qin who was hidden by your side for more than half a year, then why have you never revealed it to me?”
“Answing the Emperor, I did not report it for any other reason.”
“Say, what exactly was the reason that caused you to hide the whereabouts of that woman.”
Such sharp remarks, with such high authority, did not allow Ji Xingfeng to hide at all.
Ji Xingfeng pretended to feel guilty and lowered her head, then she said with a daunted expression: “When I saved the holy girl half a year ago, she said, I accidentally discovered that the assassin who wanted to kill him was Yulin's bodyguard from the Qi Country. And at that time only the Emperor could give orders to Yulin's bodyguards. I therefore thought that the Emperor felt that the appearance of the holy maiden was very similar to that of Queen Qin, so the Emperor wanted to kill her. Therefore I hid the problem of myself saving him, if the Emperor insists on wanting to blame, then I also have nothing.to say.”
“Omong is empty, I did not send anyone to kill the holy girl. That night, I was just..” Ji Xingyun who realized something immediately shut up. His black eyes squinted, instantly falling into his own thoughts.
Of course Ji Xingfeng knew that the Emperor could not possibly send the Yulin Guards to kill the holy maiden, the manipulator from behind all this was Her Highness Consort Zhao who went mad with jealousy.
But Ji Xingfeng still continued acting and continued this smooth plan step by step.
“If it wasn't the Emperor who sent people, could there be anyone from another country who would deliberately want to slander our Country and order someone to fake it?”
Ji Xingfeng said in astonishment, Emperor Qi just stared at the floor coldly without saying a word. From the pupils of his gloomy and sharp eyes it could be seen that he seemed to have already guessed who was the mastermind responsible for the events of that night. If there was someone pretending to be the bodyguard of the Qi Country, would they need to cover their faces? Isn't this the same logic as deceiving yourself?
And again, the token of the Qi Country's dark guard was not something that could be faked at will by others. This was a very obvious thing, there was no way Prince Ping could not understand this. Ji Xingfeng definitely only wanted to give the last resort to the person who had committed such a cruel act.
Even after knowing the real reason why the holy maiden could be chased to be killed and disappear, Ji Xingyun was still not overwhelmed by anger and did not lose her mind. The deep-minded Ji Xingyun naturally naturally naturally understood that Prince Ping could bring this woman before him again, all of this was of course not that simple.
