Chapter 219 What do you say?

"So magical? Your skirt will change color according to the temperature?" Bai Qianxi raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard that, and looked at Bai Qianyi with a scrutinizing look.

"Why has no one heard of such a magical fabric?"

"Besides..." Bai Qianxi's eyes were filled with more scrutiny, "How do you know yours will change color at a temperature?"

After a series of questions, Bai Qianxi's face couldn't help but turn pale, and her tone became a little more anxious.

"Of course I guessed! How could I not have guessed such an obvious situation? It was you just now. If you hadn't arranged for me to sit by the fire, how could I have made such a fool of myself!"

"You must have done something to my skirt on purpose!"

Bai Qianyi's expression was distorted. Whenever she thought about what happened today, she could imagine how people in the entire imperial capital would talk about her after today!
Not to mention that there are so many noble people on the scene now, especially...

Bai Qianyi subconsciously looked at the handsome man in front of her. After something like this happened, she didn't know what he would think of her.

Would she think that... When she thought of this possibility, Bai Qianyi couldn't help but shudder.

"I arranged...did I only arrange it for you?" Bai Qianxi said calmly, as if she was really doing this just for the good of the Bai family.

“I didn’t expect that although this white girl looks quite cold on weekdays, she still cares about her family at critical moments.”

Some people couldn't help but think in their hearts, and looked at Bai Yan and others with a bit of envy in their eyes.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven.

With the emergence of the Third Prince's Consort, the Bai family's status has risen as a result, and it's simply smoke rising from their ancestral graves!

But some people do not take it seriously. Although the Bai family seems to have a golden phoenix now, it will take time to see whether it is a phoenix!
"In short, this matter is definitely you!" Bai Qianyi's tone was extremely firm, and her little face became more and more distorted.

Bai Qianxi must have discovered what she was going to do. She treated her in her own way, so she treated her like this!

Apart from this, Bai Qianyi couldn't think of any other possibility!
Everyone's eyes flickered between the two of them. Emperor Dongli's expression grew increasingly gloomy as he looked towards Bai Qianxi.

"What else do you have to say now? Even if this matter has nothing to do with you, you were the one who arranged their seats!"

Seeing that Emperor Dongli was so obviously angry, Ye Beiling also stood up at this time, "Your Majesty, the arrangement of the seats was done by me alone. If you want to blame someone, please blame me."

Seeing Ye Beiling standing up, Ye Beihao's lips curled up slightly and his eyes swept towards the furious Emperor Dongli standing aside.

"Are you determined to protect her?" As Ye Beiling spoke, the atmosphere in the entire space seemed to begin to stagnate.

Everyone couldn't help but tremble with fear.

Someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The Third Prince must have done it unintentionally."

Seeing this, others also spoke up.

Ye Beiling still stood there, neither humble nor arrogant, "I am just telling the truth, and speaking the truth. If father wants to punish me, I will naturally bear part of the responsibility."

"It's just that this was an unintentional mistake on our part. If I had known that Miss Bai's dress was so special, I would not have made such an arrangement."

Seeing Ye Beiling so determined to protect Bai Qianxi, he is becoming less and less like the child he used to be!
Emperor Dongli still looked grim, and turned his gaze to Bai Qianyi, "No matter who is right or wrong in today's incident, the crime of blasphemy is a fact. I wonder how I should deal with you?"

"And your Bai family actually raised such a daughter..."

The majestic gaze fell on Bai Yan and the others, frightening them so much that they could not help but tremble. The crime of blasphemy... was a capital crime!
Not to mention, did he make such a mistake at today's priest assembly? His Majesty is so angry, I'm afraid the entire Bai family will be implicated.

Thinking that his family's century-old business would be taken back into his hands overnight, Bai Yan wished he could faint on the spot!
"Your Majesty...I...I don't know either..."

Bai Qianyi's voice was timid and low enough for only herself to hear. Facing the emperor's wrath, all her thoughts instantly disappeared from her mind.

Now, she just wants to save her life.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Just as everyone was waiting for the guillotine to fall, Bai Yan thought that his entire family would be defeated at his hands, and he could not help but close his eyes, grit his teeth and harden his heart.

A loud voice rang out from the hall.

Emperor Dongli looked over and said, "Oh? What do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty, please understand that what happened today was just an accident. No one expected something like this to happen, and I didn't do it on purpose."

"The fact that this dress changes color when exposed to high temperatures is unheard of. If my daughter knew that her dress was in this state, she would never dare to wear it today."

"But what happened today has already happened, and I have nothing to say. I just hope Your Majesty can be lenient and spare my daughter's life!"

Bai Yan knelt deeply on the ground, his heart trembling uncontrollably. Success or failure depended on this one move.

Seeing his father like this, Bai Yuting leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, I know I have nothing to say, but my fourth sister is a family member to me after all. I also have the responsibility to supervise what happened today."

"But my fourth sister has been innocent and kind since she was young. What happened today was unintentional. She was also framed by the traitor. Even if she is guilty, she will not be put to death!"

Seeing the two people beside him bending down, Bai Yushu couldn't help but become a little hesitant.

Looking at Bai Qianyi and thinking about what she had done, he really didn't want to say anything, but this matter concerned the Bai family.

Xier...is also from the Bai family.

No matter how strained the relationship may be on a daily basis, the blood relationship cannot be severed.

"Your Majesty, I also have something to say. I know that Bai Qian deserves to be punished for what she did today, but considering her ignorance, I ask Your Majesty to spare her life as today is a day of sacrifice and blood should not be shed."

No matter what punishment His Majesty wants to give, his Bai family should bear it!

Looking at the people in front of him who were begging for mercy one after another, Emperor Dongli's eyes flickered, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

Finally, Emperor Dongli looked at Bai Qianxi again, with a hint of temptation in his voice, "What do you say now?"

"Although you are a member of the Bai family, you are the victim in this matter after all. Moreover, you are now the future wife of the third brother. Even if I punish the Bai family severely, it should have nothing to do with you at this time."

No one expected Emperor Dongli to speak like this suddenly. They were all shocked, but it made sense.

Regardless of the fact that Miss Bai Wu is the victim today, based on her identity as the future prince's consort, this matter should not have anything to do with her.

Emperor Dongli looked at Bai Qianxi with a gentle gaze, but his eyes were deep and unfathomable.
