C26 (1/2)

At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi was completely stunned. She couldn't understand what this man was thinking.

Unexpectedly, he was even more changeable than her.

Forget it, all of this had nothing to do with her.

After settling this matter, she planned to part ways with Nangong Lin and search for the Multicolored Stone and the treasure on her own.

At that time, delicious food and beautiful men were present. Just thinking about this scene made Yan Xiaoxi burst out in laughter.

The ministers looked at Yan Xiaoxi in confusion. No one could understand why she would laugh so suddenly.

Seeing this, Liu Zhixue was stunned. Her face was extremely pale, and even though her long nails had sunk into her flesh, she could not feel any pain.

This was because there was nothing else that was even more eye-catching than Yan Xiaoxi's smile. It was as if she was showing off, but also as if she was ridiculing Yan Xiaoxi's stupidity, every movement, and every expression.

Ever since Yan Xiaoxi had become Nangong Lin's main wife, she and Liu Zhixue had been destined to become enemies.

Nangong Lin shot a glance at Yan Xiaoxi. He knew that there was no one who understood this woman's ridiculous laughter better than him.

There were only two reasons for it. First, she thought of delicious food. Second, she thought of the beautiful man. Looking at her wild laughter just now, she must have thought of these two reasons at the same time.

”Your majesty, are you still going to allow Princess Lin to continue fooling around?” For some reason, Liu Zhitian, who had always been calm, also started to target Yan Xiaoxi.

Nangong Xiao was sitting majestically on top as she glanced at Yan Xiaoxi. She replied, ”We can't let Princess Peace say that our Nanshui Country wrongly accused people.”

These words were obviously intended to side with Yan Xiaoxi.

Liu Zhitian was stunned. No matter what, he could not imagine that in such a short period of time, Yan Xiaoxi would be able to make someone who didn't believe her start to speak up for her. It was truly strange.

”General Liu, don't be impatient. When this consort takes out some evidence, you'll know whether or not I'm messing around.” Yan Xiaoxi naturally understood the reason why Liu Zhitian was so anxious at this moment.

It was likely that he had also noticed the jade pendant and felt that Yan Xiaoxi's next words would definitely be detrimental to Liu Zhixue. Therefore, he decided to open his mouth and try to stop her.

Liu Zhitian's wishful thinking was not bad. If it was any other matter, with his influence in the imperial court, perhaps Nangong Xiao would give him some face.

However, this matter had gone through many twists and turns. The way things developed afterwards was no longer something that anyone could control.

”Duke Lin, don't keep us in suspense.” An official couldn't wait to know what was going on.

No matter how hard they tried, none of them managed to figure out what was going on. However, Yan Xiaoxi was the only one who knew the answer to the riddle.

Yan Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows and shifted her gaze to the palace maid. She said, ”I wonder if everyone knows that the General Liu family will give their children a piece of jade whenever they are born.”

Everyone nodded their heads. This matter was no longer a secret in the Southern Water Country.

”I wonder, does Miss Liu wear a jade pendant on her body?” With that, Yan Xiaoxi looked towards Liu Zhixue's waist. Sure enough, there was a crystal clear jade pendant hanging there, and its color was excellent. With one glance, one could tell that it was priceless.

”The jade pendant is here.” Liu Zhixue took the jade pendant off her waist. No matter how reluctant she was, she had no choice under the gazes of everyone.

Yan Xiaoxi took the jade pendant from Liu Zhixue's hand and presented it to everyone. She then pointed at the palace maid once more, ”Everyone, look over there.”

Everyone's gaze turned towards the direction that Yan Xiaoxi was pointing. When they saw that the palace maid wore a jade pendant of the same kind as Yuliu Zhixue's, they were immediately stunned.

The jade pendant that the palace maid wore looked very similar to Liu Zhixue's. Although the details were different, it was still normal.

Every jade pendant of the Liu Family represented a person. It was designed in an original way and looked similar. However, it was deliberately designed to embellish the details. With just a glance, you could tell who owned the jade pendant.

”Why is General Liu's jade pendant with the palace maid?” This was the doubt in everyone's heart.
