1044 Chapter 1044 This Lady is More Suspicious!
1044 Chapter 1044 “This Lady is More Suspicious!“
The previous emperor had guessed Yan Fenghuang next plan but the girl herself didn’t know that the others had guessed her plan. They were just waiting for Li Shi Ying to solve the case. That’s right. The previous emperor believed that Li Shi Ying would be able to take care of this matter easily.
"It is a small white sachet...I found it near sister Li’s chair, please take a look" Yan Fenghuang didn’t give the sachet to the previous emperor and immediately gave it to the poison expert. The girl was too excited to do her plan that a small hole appeared in her perfect plan.
The poison expert looked at the emperor without saying a word after Yan Fenghuang gave him the sachet. It was clear that the old man was asking for the Emperor to give his permission. Without the emperor saying anything, he too won’t check what’s the content of the sachet.
"Check it" The emperor’s face was still as stoic as before but the corner of his lip was tugged up a little. This sachet should be the one Yan Fenghuang used to contain the poison. Now she said she found it near Li Shi Ying’s chair...
This girl intended to frame Li Shi Ying, wasn’t she?
Despite fully knew what Yan Fenghuang was up to, the emperor still went with the flow. This sachet actually could be the one tripping Yan Fenghuang instead.
"Your majesty, there’s a trace of poison inside the sachet. It’s the same poison used in the tea" Old Zhu suddenly spoke after he inspected the sachet. His voice wasn’t loud so only the people at the table could hear it.
Old Zhu purposely spoke in a rather low voice. He himself had a feeling that this shouldn’t be known to a lot of people...The old man didn’t know what kind of conspiracy was going on here but one thing he knew.
Whoever it was owned the poison must be someone influential. After all, the poison couldn’t be acquired other than ordering it from a certain sect at the middle realm of the lower realm. Not to mention they sold the poison to limited people so not all people could get their hand on it.
This...could it be this was a royal dispute?
Old Zhu wiped his forehead afraid of getting entangled in this royal dispute. He rather stayed silent and waited for the Emperor order before doing anything.
"Good" The emperor praised Old Zhu for his quick-witted thought. Indeed it was better if the guests didn’t know about the sachet. Else, since they knew it dropped bear Li Shi Ying’s chair, they would immediately accuse her without proof.
The Emperor and Old Zhu didn’t want to let others know but there was someone who really wanted all the guests to know. It was none other than...Yan Fenghuang.
"Ah! So it’s a poison sachet!" Yan Fenghuang exclaimed. The girl looked shocked as if she had discovered something really bad. She acted like a real frightened young girl who couldn’t control her emotion well.
Yan Fenghuang’s words made all the guests suddenly become noisy. They weren’t an idiot to actually didn’t know what’s going on anymore. The sachet dropped near the crown Princess’ chair is a poison sachet! The same one as the poison used in the empress’ tea.
Does this mean...
"Oh God, so the crown princess is really the culprit!" One of the swallow-minded ladies covered her mouth as she looked at Li Shi Ying with a hint of shock. The lady didn’t think that a pretty girl like Li Shi Ying could be so vicious.
It turned out all humans are indeed like what her mother said. They were all cunning and evil!
"Right, that sachet is already an undeniable proof. Does the emperor want to protect the crown Princess? He should know full well that the empress is almost harmed again!" Another middle-aged lady murmured to her friend at the same table.
She wanted to just quickly finish the banquet. She didn’t have the mood to continue the banquet anymore.
"Hey, she’s not the crown princess yet. Don’t call her with that title. It’s a disgrace for our dragon race to have a human as the crown Princess not to mention she dared to try poison the empress! She must be a spy working for other kingdoms"
Stern and strict young lady harrumphed refusing to acknowledge Li Shi Ying as the Crown Princess. There’s no way her proud race would accept this human as the future empress. Even though she’s awesome and such, still! Isn’t Lady Yan also as awesome as this human?
"You are right. We just need to wait for the emperor to execute this human. To think his majesty goes to such length to prepare this banquet only for that ungrateful human to bite him back" another girl shook her head agreeing with the lady next to her.
The guests one by one had turned against Li Shi Ying even before they heard her explanation. Almost all of them looked at Li Shi Ying with undisguised contempt in their eyes. If there was a box of rotten tomato there, Li Shi Ying would surely get attacked with it.
Only a few smart people didn’t immediately jump into conclusion. They calmly observed the situation and after finding that the sachet owner was actually still not certain, they didn’t accuse Li Shi Ying. On the other hand, they began to shift their focus to Yan Fenghuang instead.
That lady is more suspicious!
