The prince choked when he heard this and was speechless for a long time.
Everyone present saw that Xi Yue was calm throughout the whole process, as if she was watching a play, and then she turned around and slapped her face lightly in the end. No one would believe that she was scared.
Seeing everyone looking at him with a shameless expression, He Xi couldn't help but sneer and said, "The Crown Prince blames me for producing evidence too late. If I had produced evidence earlier, would the Crown Prince have asked Feng Lianying to pay for your third brother's life?"
Upon hearing this, the prince froze and his expression became extremely ugly.
"Since you don't know how to do it, does it make any difference whether you take it out earlier or later?"
"You are just making up excuses!" Before the prince could say anything, Nalan Ziyun stepped forward and shouted at He Xi, "It's obviously you who are cunning and can't bear to see others live well. If you had brought out the evidence earlier, the matter wouldn't have become so serious. Do you have to see everyone suffer to be happy?"
"Zijun, don't be rude!" Xia Yichen said lightly only after Nalan Zijun finished speaking, "Have you forgotten that we are here to apologize to Master Xi?"
Nalan Ziyun snorted coldly, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Sorry, Master Xi, we misunderstood you just now."
Hexi looked at him coldly, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Do you know Nalan Hexi?"
Nalan Ziyun was stunned at first, then a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes, but he didn't show it on his face. "Nalan Hexi is my elder sister. How come Mr. Xi knows my elder sister?"
He Xi neither nodded nor shook his head, "Master Nalan, do you know how your sister is doing now?"
"My elder sister is naturally living a good life." Nalan Ziyun frowned, unable to guess what He Xi meant. "She is in poor health, so she has been kept in another courtyard. But my father and mother treat her as the third daughter of the Nalan family, and she is provided with the best food, clothing and daily necessities. What does Master Xi mean by asking this?"
Living well
The corner of He Xi's mouth curled up into a mocking smile, his eyes dark, "It's nothing, I just happened to see your sister somewhere, and I was a little curious."
As she spoke, she looked towards the prince, "I heard that the prince is interested in taking the third lady of the Nanalan family as his concubine?"
The prince was startled when he heard this, not understanding how the topic came to him. "Ziyun did tell me that her sister is beautiful, virtuous, and talented. I have this intention, but the matter of taking a concubine still needs the approval of my father and Dr. Nalan. What do you mean by asking this, Master Xi?"
The prince looked at the handsome young man in front of him with suspicion, and thought to himself, he was trying so hard to find out about Nalan Hexi, could it be that he was interested in the third lady of the Nalan family
However, he listened to Nalan Ziyun's words that day and investigated the third young lady of the Nalan family. The actual situation disappointed him greatly. Not only was the third young lady Nalan ugly and uncultured, but she also had no status in the Nalan Mansion and was bullied.
Only Zijun is so kind and naive that he would believe that his sister has always lived a good life.
However, if Xi Yue in front of him is really interested in Nalan Hexi, does that mean that Nalan Hexi does have some value
The prince was thinking about his own things, but Nalan Ziyun was staring at Hexi fiercely, not understanding what this person meant by suddenly mentioning his sister. (To be continued)
