Chapter 285 The Deathly Witch
"Your Majesty, those ministers are still kneeling outside, and His Majesty doesn't seem to want to see them." The nanny said.

"Where are the third prince and that wild girl? Are there no signs of any movement?"

"My people have been watching them the whole time, and they certainly didn't see those two people come out." The nanny spoke more carefully.

"It seems that His Majesty really cares about those two!"

With just a cold snort, the queen gracefully put down the spoon in her hand, lowered her head silently, and served even more carefully.

"It's getting dark soon. It's not easy for those ministers, and it's not easy for Your Majesty either."

"Notify the Second Brother, and we'll go over and take a look. If His Majesty needs anything, I may be able to help."

She was helped gracefully and elegantly into the sedan chair, and the master and servant went straight to the Tenglong Palace.

At this moment, His Highness, all the ministers could not help but kneel down with weak knees.

A thin layer of sweat continued to seep out of his forehead.

Many people even have uncontrollable stomach discomfort.

Except for a little food in the morning before coming to court, they had not had a drop of water until now.

Some ministers felt so uncomfortable that they wanted to move slightly, but they saw that everyone around them was standing straight.

I didn't dare to move.

But the hatred for Bai Qianxi in my heart grew stronger, it was all because of this damn witch!

If it wasn't for protecting her, why would His Majesty make things difficult for these ministers!

Thinking of this, the ministers couldn't help but look at the person who was kneeling the straightest in front.

"Second Prince, His Majesty wants to embarrass us old bones, why should you suffer with us?"

"Yes, Your Highness, please get up!"

"We don't need you to suffer and plead for us..."

Looking at the people kneeling with them, the ministers felt infinitely moved.

They were right! This is what the future emperor will look like!

A modest gentleman! A respectful minister!
Listening to these words of persuasion, Ye Beihao pursed his lips lightly, still kneeling straight, "Everyone, there is no need to say anything more. I am kneeling here not to beg for mercy, but just to pray to God, so that my father can get better soon."

"So there's no need to feel guilty!"

Ye Beihao's righteous voice sounded, and the ministers were more and more moved. They all thought that the Second Prince did this for them.

This also made them subconsciously compare Ye Beihao and me with Ye Beiling. It turned out that compared to that evil god, the Second Palace was more suitable to be the crown prince!

When no one was watching, Ye Beihao curled the corners of his lips slightly.

Just as several ministers were about to continue speaking, a loud shout was heard.

"The Queen has arrived!"

All the ministers had to bow immediately and the lady in a bright red peony dress walked slowly over with the support of a nanny.

Looking at the ministers who were still kneeling outside the courtyard, the queen seemed particularly surprised.

"Why are you all still here? Is it that His Majesty still won't let you in?"

"This……"

Being looked at so blatantly, the ministers present blushed as they were thin-skinned.

Fortunately, the Queen did not seem to have the intention of making things difficult for them. In fact, after realizing that she had said something wrong, the Queen even felt embarrassed.

"Your Majesty is definitely not trying to avoid you all. It's just that His Majesty has just woken up and is inevitably a little weak. I hope you ministers will understand. I will go in and talk to His Majesty now..."

Several ministers' eyes lit up instantly when they heard this, "In that case, we can only thank Your Majesty." "It's okay. Everyone present is the pillar of the country. Without a good body, you can't do things for Your Majesty." The Queen's expression rarely looked so gentle.

Everyone watched her walk into the hall with great anticipation.

At this time in the palace.

After reminding the emperor of the real situation, Emperor Dongli closed his eyes and began a short rest.

The two were awakened only when they heard the Queen's arrival.

"You haven't eaten all day, and you just woke up so you can't drink greasy food, so I asked the kitchen to make some porridge..."

"Put it down. I don't really feel like eating it yet..." Emperor Dongli took just one look and then looked away.

The queen didn't seem to care about his attitude, as if she was used to it.

"Your Majesty, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat for now. Just remember to have the kitchen simmer so that you can take out food when your Majesty wants to eat."

"You have a heart."

After a simple conversation, the entire hall seemed to become unusually quiet.

The queen didn't seem to notice this atmosphere, and continued to smile and said, "Your Majesty, when I came in just now, I saw many ministers kneeling outside."

"Although I am a member of the harem and cannot interfere in these important government affairs, I also know."

"These ministers are almost old now, and they have been kneeling outside this house for a whole day, even for the sake of their health."

"They have already been punished. We can let them in now. Even if there is any further accountability... that will be a matter for later. Am I right?"

A gentle voice sounded, and Emperor Dongli also fell silent.

The queen just watched with a smile, not afraid that he would not agree.

After all, this matter must be resolved at some point, and she was just handing over a step to step down.

Finally, all the ministers came in together.

Kneeling for a long time made them feel like their knees were not their own, but they still did not dare to complain in front of Emperor Dongli.

However, when the ministers saw Bai Qianxi again in the hall, who seemed to be particularly close to His Majesty, they could not help but look gloomy.

"You have all been kneeling for so long, have you finally figured it out?"

Half lying on the bed, Emperor Dongli glanced majestically at everyone present, but his voice still sounded a little weak.

The ministers who were glanced at by him could not help but lower their heads one after another. The atmosphere became stagnant for a moment. Emperor Dongli did not say anything and just looked at them quietly.

"Your Majesty, I still have something to say."

Under such pressure, one of the ministers' representatives finally stood up.

His attitude seemed very respectful, but his words made Emperor Dongli furious again.

"As your majesty said, we have indeed considered a lot, but after careful consideration, for the sake of the royal family's reputation, we still ask your majesty to sentence the county lady to death!"

"This way, we won't stir up too much trouble in the imperial city. Otherwise, once the example of the county lady gets out, won't people all over the world think that such unethical things can happen at will?"

"You! Do you really think that I can't touch you?"

"I have never thought so."

"But I did everything for Your Majesty! I know Your Majesty can't bring himself to do it, so I will let you be the evildoer. I only hope Your Majesty can consider the country and the people and sentence this evil woman to death!"

"Your Majesty, please sentence this witch to death!" In an instant, everyone in the hall knelt down again.

"You guys! You're going to piss me off to death!"
