Chapter 286 What to Ask

"I think you are not targeting Xi'er, but me, right? You will be happy if you make me angry to death!"

"Ahem,"

Seeing that Emperor Dongli's face turned bad again, Bai Qianxi hurried to help him calm down.

As for the remarks of these ministers, Bai Qianxi's expression did not change at all, as if these people were not talking about her!

With her by his side, Emperor Dongli's complexion finally looked a little better.

When the ministers heard Emperor Dongli's questioning, they quickly knelt on the ground again and said they dared not.

"I dare not. I think you dare very much!"

With Bai Qianxi's comfort, Emperor Dongli's expression eased a little, but still looked grim.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. It's not worth it to ruin your health." Upon seeing this, the Queen quickly joined in.

"Although the ministers say so, the only option left to us is to grant death."

"In the end, it's all Xier's fault. If she had been more low-key, she wouldn't have caused such a stir."

"But now, things have come to this and there is nothing we can do. We should give an explanation to everyone in the world."

The queen's gentle voice sounded, and she seemed to be really considering this matter seriously.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Emperor Dongli's voice was subtly chilly.

He was constantly suppressing his inner anger, but the queen seemed unaware of this and still had a gentle smile on her face.

"In my opinion, if we want to save this child's life, we should let her become a nun now, and it would be best if we don't choose a temple near the imperial capital."

"In this way, this child will be a person from the outside world. The sins of this world will naturally have nothing to do with her. What do you think, ministers?"

"What the queen said makes sense."

They didn't expect that His Majesty would protect this girl so much. Even if they insisted on meeting him a few more times, they didn't want to make their relationship with His Majesty too awkward.

The method mentioned by the Queen is undoubtedly the best!

"So you all believe that Xier is wrong!?" Emperor Dongli pointed at everyone present, speechless.

"Your Majesty, calm down." Bai Qianxi hurriedly comforted him, looking at everyone present with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

The minister who was being glared at noticed her look and became even more angry.

It turns out that this witch is simply lawless!
How dare a woman look at them like this! If they listened to the queen and spared the life of this witch, it would be too easy for her!
"This evil woman is a disaster to the country! Your Majesty, please execute her!"

"Ahem,"

"Let's see who dares today!"

As Emperor Dongli coughed again, an exceptionally loud voice rang out from outside the hall, and a figure came against the light.

"It seems to be quite lively here. If there is any good news, please tell me about it!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ye Shu, dressed in a crimson purple palace dress, dignified and noble, walking towards them quickly.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this, and then they knelt down hurriedly, "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"Don't bother with these empty formalities. Let's talk about what's going on. I heard that you are all very capable. I'm so angry at you all that I'm about to vomit blood."

"You all seem to be much more powerful than all the ministers in previous dynasties!" It was just a very ordinary narrative tone, but after hearing her words, everyone present lowered their heads and dared not look.

As subjects, it would not sound good to tell others that their words had made the ruler of a country so angry that he vomited blood.

Not to mention that what they heard was the questioning from the current person himself!
However, although they didn't want to talk, Ye Shu had no intention of letting them go so easily.

"Why are you all silent? Weren't you all very talkative just now? Why are you silent now? Or are you shy because of me?"

After a series of questions, everyone present couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling.

Who on earth notified this ancestor to come over!
But at this moment, even if they had millions of dissatisfactions in their hearts, they had to be careful and cautious when facing the person in front of them.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? Haha, how dare we make His Majesty angry? Your Majesty fainted suddenly, and we are also very worried."

"As for why Your Majesty fainted, we...we don't know either, but Your Highness can ask her--"

A minister walked out at this time, pointing his finger at Bai Qianxi, obviously intending to divert the blame.

However, after hearing this, Ye Shu just glanced at Bai Qianxi, nodded, and then looked away.

He looked at the minister in front of him again, "I am asking you, not her. When I came down just now, I seemed to hear words like "a death sentence" or something like that."

"So you all realize that you have not taken good care of His Majesty, and are asking you to kill me?"

The ministers didn't expect Ye Shu to be so stupid. They didn't believe that she really didn't know what had happened.

As expected, the eldest princess came here this time to protect that witch!

"Your Highness, since you've said so, let's just tell the truth. Bai Qianxi must die today!"

"Since she dared to do something that humiliated the royal family with the Third Prince, she must bear the corresponding price! So even if Your Highness the Princess is here today, I will never change my opinion!"

This man spoke in a decisive tone and seemed so determined.

"So just because of this trivial matter, you are trying to take someone's life?"

"How can this be considered a trivial matter?" one minister protested.

"Isn't this a small matter? If you are using these unfounded things to take someone's life, then shouldn't I commit suicide to apologize?"

"Princess, how can it be the same!"

Hearing her words, all the ministers present became nervous instantly.

"How are they different? They are all women." Ye Shu sneered at everyone present.

"You can accept this kind of thing happening to me, but why can't you accept it happening to Xi'er?"

"Or do you think Xi'er is easy to bully? So you come to bully such a weak woman?"

"When you said those things, did you really investigate the truth of the matter? Just relying on what people outside said, you thought that this was the truth?"

"In this case, I have to start doubting whether you can really work for the court. If officials are like you, and they believe in rumors so easily, then the people imprisoned in that prison would not be criminals!"

Ye Shu spoke without showing any mercy to these people! The moment she said this, the ministers blushed.

"Your Highness... We have actually investigated before..." Someone finally couldn't help but stand up to refute.

"Those who found out the news are still in prison... If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can go and ask in person..."

"What are you asking? Are these just the imaginations of those who have nothing to do?" Ye Shu continued to mock.
