Feng Yijin said with a sneer, “Oh? You want me to show mercy to the person who attempted to assassinate the Empress Dowager?”

“Your Majesty, I’m willing to bear the consequences on her behalf…” Liu Xiaolan said as he lowered his head, looking miserable.

Feng Yijin ignored Liu Xiaolan. Instead, he turned to ask Nan Xun, “Crown

Prince Nan, he’s a prince of your Nanyue. What do you think I should do?”

Nan Xun’s expression was rather unsightly at this moment. Although he hated

Liu Xiaolan, Liu Xiaolan was still a prince of Nanyue no matter what. Liu Xiaolan’s actions were tantamount to throwing the dignity of Nanyue to the ground for others to trample on.

Nan Xun quickly walked over and yanked Liu Xiaolan up. He said through gritted teeth, “How could you lower yourself like this for a woman? You’re really a humiliation to the imperial family of Nanyue!”

“Crown Prince Nan, you’re born without feelings. You don’t have anyone to protect so it’s easy for you to say such words. You’re different from me. If you won’t help me, then please move aside,” Liu Xiaolan said as he pried Nan Xun’s fingers off him. Then, he kneeled in front of Feng Yijin again.

Yu Yunxi and the others frowned deeply as they watched Liu Xiaolan. All of them thought that in certain aspects, Liu Xiaolan was truly inferior to Nan Xun. At the very least, Nan Xun was not as childish as Liu Xiaolan.

Feng Yijin glanced at Nan Xun and said, “Crown Prince, I didn’t ask the Third Prince to do this. He’s the one who wants to take the blame.”

At this moment, Feng Yijin really looked smug. He was like a villain who had gotten his way.

Nan Xun gnashed his teeth until they hurt. Then, he forced a smile on his face and said, “Your Majesty, since this matter concerns the Empress Dowager, it’s better to wait for her to wake up before we make a decision.”

“No need. The Empress Dowager is seriously injured. I can make the decision now,” Feng Yijin said. Then, he looked at Liu Xiaolan and Gao Shixuan before he said, “Although the Third Prince wants to shoulder the blame, how can the culprit be let off so easily? Men, send both of them to prison to await punishment.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The imperial guards quickly dragged Liu Xiaolan and Gao Shixuan away.

Before Gao Shixuan left, she even glared at Yu Yunxi resentfully. She had schemed for so long, but she was still unable to take Yu Yunxi down. She really could not accept this.

Just as Nan Xun was about to stop the imperial guards, Feng Yijin said threateningly, “Crown Prince Nan, have you forgotten that you’re in Tianxia?”

These words successfully stopped Nan Xun in his tracks. He turned around and said through gritted teeth, “Of course, I remember. Since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t say anything else. However, since ancient times, I’ve never heard of the innocent being allowed to shoulder the blame for a crime. I hope you’ll make a fair judgment.”

It did not matter if Liu Xiaolan was not favored. He was a prince of Nanyue. Outsiders were not allowed to deal with Liu Xiaolan.

Feng Yijin replied, “I’ll naturally deal with this matter fairly. Crown Prince Nan, don’t worry.”

Then, Feng Yijin said, “Empress, follow me to see how the Empress Dowager is doing.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Although the Empress felt unwilling, she still nodded in a docile manner.

Meanwhile, Feng Weizhou looked at Yu Yunxi meaningfully before he left. In the end, everyone left one after another, leaving only Yu Yunxi, Feng Yili, and a few others. Nan Xun was among these people.

Nan Xun, who had nowhere to vent his anger, asked angrily, “Feng Yili, what’s wrong with your sect? How could it nurture such a fool?”

Feng Yili did not react to Nan Xun’s words. However, it did not stop Nan Xun from venting.

“The Imperial Preceptor of Nanyue recommended Gao Shixuan. I thought she was very powerful, but as it turns out, she’s also a brainless fool! She spent so much time scheming, but she actually failed. How useless! Not only that, but she also dragged Liu Xiaolan down!”

Yu Yunxi:

The others:

Based on Nan Xun’s words, it seemed like he found it a pity that Gao Shixuan’s plan failed?

Yu Yunxi kindly reminded Nan Xun. “Crown Prince Nan, don’t forget that you also failed to deal with me…

Nan Xun:

After a while, Nan Xun gritted teeth and asked, “Tell me. How should we deal with this matter now?”

“It’s really not easy for you. You’re about to die, but you still have to worry about this,” Yu Yunxi said with an emotional sigh.

There was no denying that Liu Xiaolan’s action was rather troublesome. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Feng Yijin wanted nothing more than to drag Liu Xiaolan into this matter. With this, Nanyue would be at a greater disadvantage. Alas, Liu Xiaolan did not care about anything except for Gao Shixuan.

“However, you really can’t blame him. He only wants to protect the one he loves. Moreover, the imperial family of Nanyue let him down first. Why should he care about you or Nanyue now?” Yu Yunxi said. It could be considered as her standing up for Liu Xiaolan.

Nan Xun sneered. “Protect the one he loves? Oh, then why can’t Liu Xiaolan if

Gao Shixuan is worthy of his protection or not?”

Nan Xun continued to say angrily, “I don’t care. I’ll break into the prison and bring that idiot out. I’ll send him back to Nanyue immediately!”

“Oh, so you’re going to give the Emperor another reason to make things difficult for your Nanyue? Moreover, do you really think you’ll be able to leave the capital so easily?” Yu Yunxi asked.

Nan Xun’s expression turned even darker.

At this moment, Feng Yili suddenly said, “If I were you, I’d let nature take its course. The more anxious you are, the advantageous it’ll be for the Emperor.”

Feng Yijin was neither on Feng Yijin’s side nor Nan Xun’s side. He only wanted this matter to be handled in a discreet manner. If this matter that involved the two countries grew bigger, Liu Xiaolan would be a sinner in the eyes of the commoners. Although Liu Xiaolan was muddle-headed, he did not deserve such an outcome.

Nan Xun gradually calmed down after listening to Feng Yili’s words. He clenched his hands and said through gritted teeth, “I know what to do. However, if he thinks he can use Liu Xiaolan to suppress Nanyue, then he’s sorely mistaken! ”

With that, Nan Xun flicked his sleeve and left in a huff.

When only Yu Yunxi and her people were left, the little bun ran over and asked worriedly, “Mother, are you okay?”

The little bun could not help but worry. After working so hard, his mother must be very tired.

Suddenly, Feng Yili carried Yu Yunxi in his arms.

“Feng Yili, what are you doing?” Yu Yunxi asked, shocked.

“You worked hard to save the Empress Dowager and deal with Gao Shixuan today. Do you think you’re an immortal? Aren’t you tired?” Feng Yili asked gloomily, slightly upset that she had no regard for her own well-being.

“Isn’t it because of you that I have to face all these things?” Yu Yunxi muttered and pouted.

After all, Gao Shixuan was likely so hostile toward Yu Yunxi because she had feelings for Feng Yili.. Was it not because of him that she and Qian Mei were dragged into this matter?
