Chapter 620 - Shouldering the Blame (1/2)
“Within this palace, there is probably only you, Courtesan Zheng, who could be referred to as a n.o.ble consort.”
Qiao Mu’s icy gaze moved to n.o.ble Consort Zheng, causing her to s.h.i.+ver for no reason.
n.o.ble Consort Zheng couldn’t help feeling apprehensive. This little lady had long dug a pit, waiting for them to jump in before lazily presenting the evidence she possessed!
How could she be so scheming! Was this still a 14 to 15-year-old little girl?
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that this kind of cunning and strategizing belonged to people who were several decades older.
“Courtesan Zheng, what else do you have to say!” Mo Lian angrily rebuked before abruptly drawing out a slender jet-black long sword, pointing it at n.o.ble Consort Zheng.
“You malevolent woman! How did my mother-in-law and them offend you! You’re actually so malicious as to want to sell them??”
n.o.ble Consort Zheng’s pupils contracted abruptly, and she hastily scrambled to the king’s feet, latching onto his leg as she wailed daintily and delicately, “My king! I truly am unaware of this incident! How could the blame be pushed onto me just because of Sister Huang’s few words?”
“Handsome Fairness Huang!” While piteously weeping, n.o.ble Consort Zheng turned her head to holler at Handsome Fairness Huang. “How could you be so shameless! And wildly accuse this n.o.ble consort of doing things that she has nothing to do with!”
“Speak!! Why would you do this?” n.o.ble Consort Zheng’s alluring eyes shot out a malicious glint at Handsome Fairness Huang as her thin lips indistinctly spat out a person’s name.
Handsome Fairness Huang’s shoulders instantly caved in defeat. Her entire being was like a deflated toy as she lay limply on the floor.
That was her dad’s name; n.o.ble Consort Zheng was threatening her with her entire family’s lives!
This woman’s methods were so vicious that if she didn’t continue that woman’s act today, then her whole family would definitely be ma.s.sacred tomorrow.
