”I am Nanqi, a disciple of Holy Medicinal Pavilion.” Shui Qinan's voice was cold, as he completely ignored the princess consort's anger.
”Nanqi? I'm sorry, I've never heard of that name before! ” The Crown Princess glanced at Shui Qinan with disdain, ”Is it possible for anyone from this Holy Medicinal Pavilion to seal another person's spirit energy?”
”Because Hua Jiao tried to poison his teacher.” Shui Qinan's face was calm and unhurried as she answered the question at a leisurely pace.
To murder a teacher, according to the rules of Holy Medicinal Pavilion, they had to be dealt with. If the spirit energy was not sealed, the person who made the mistake would have the chance to try to escape, she, Shui Qinan, had to stop this from happening.
The princess consort lowered her gaze, looking furious. Her eyes were fixated on Shui Qinan and she knew that her brother had such a personality, but … Asking her to admit her little brother's mistake in front of so many people, this … Impossible!
”What evidence do you have to prove that Hua Jiao is the culprit behind the poison? Even if there is, it would only be perjury by a scumbag like you.”
”Crown Princess, everything I said was true. As for whether or not I was a forgery, Hua Jiao is very clear in his heart.” Shui Yannan stood there, her straight back showing her aura and her calmness.
This princess consort was actually Hua Jiao's older sister. She defended Hua Jiao with every word, disregarding the rules and provoking him unrestrainedly.
”You …” The Crown Princess's eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness. She was about to make a move, but was stopped by the Crown Prince.
”The Crown Prince shook his head at her and said in a low voice,” Don't make a move here, the Holy Medicinal Pavilion's status in the Nalan Continent is something we cannot underestimate. ”
”But …” The Crown Princess was stunned. She didn't know where to put her anger, so she just shrank down. ”But that person is my younger brother, I can't look at him …”
”Alright, I understand.” The crown prince held her hand and walked forward, standing there as he looked at the disciples of the Holy Medicinal Pavilion. Everyone, I'll be leaving first if you have something to say. ”
”Your Highness, why did you stop me just now?” The Crown Princess leaned on the Crown Prince's chest with a delicate face. She seemed to be acting coquettishly. Do you know how angry that person was?! ”
”The Crown Prince touched her face and stared at her pouting mouth.” ”Don't be angry. After all, she's an alchemist, so she'll naturally have her own pride. You don't need to be angry with her!”
”Your Highness the Crown Prince …” The Crown Princess was sobbing. She knocked on the Crown Prince's chest.
”Do you remember the purpose of our visit to Holy Medicinal Pavilion?” The Crown Prince held her tightly in his arms.
”…” The Crown Princess was silent. It wasn't that she didn't know. She just couldn't let her poor little brother suffer in front of her.
”What's more, we have a request for his Holy Medicinal Pavilion. But look, it's as if we're provoking him the moment we arrive.” The crown prince comforted her by patting her on the back, ”How do you want others to judge our royal family's conduct!”
”Nan Ya, do you remember the crown prince and the crown prince's consort?” Fourth Elder had his back facing Shui Qinan.
”Reporting to master, this disciple remembers that the princess consort was Hua Jiao's elder sister, and had confronted me that day.” Shui Qinan cupped her fists, and slightly bent her body, and looked at the ground.
”The crown prince and the princess consort have been married for three years and have not been pregnant. This matter concerns the succession of the imperial throne.”
