Elder Xue spoke first: "Queen, please take a look at those photos."
He pushed a stack of photos over.
Nie Qingru looked at the photos in front of her, picked up one and glanced at it, and she realized that they were the photos she saw on the Internet that morning.
It’s just that the photos developed by the Privy Council are clearer and richer.
Her eyelids twitched, and she put the photo back, with no emotion on her face: "I've seen it, just some ordinary photos."
She still wants to protect Nie Qixing
Everyone's eyes became strange.
The archbishop was the first to chuckle, and looked at her with a half-smile in his eyes: "I'm afraid these photos can't be described as ordinary."
Nie Qingru narrowed her eyes and looked at him dangerously.
Quentin looked up disapprovingly: "Don't you think the woman in the photo looks familiar, Queen?"
The people in the photo are very distinctive from their facial features to their temperament.
This characteristic is the most fatal!
Nie Qingru curled her fingers unconsciously and warned, "What do you want to say?"
Quentin originally guessed it was Ji Qing.
The person in the photo looks a lot like Ji Qing.
He had met Ji Qing, the most noble princess of the Ji family in the Independent Continent, who was the illegitimate son of Ji Lingfeng, the current head of the Ji family.
Ji Qing is the daughter and only child of Ji Wushun and Nie Qingru.
It is the most direct line among the direct lines!
The nobility of his bloodline is definitely beyond Ji Lingfeng's reach.
But Ji Qing herself is extremely talented and has a generous personality. At that time, countless people's eyes were on this shining pearl.
However, that incident tarnished Mingzhu's reputation and soon became a taboo in their circle.
Not to mention the Ji family, no one even mentioned the hidden family.
Until Qiao Nian appeared! When Quentin saw the person in the photo, the first person he thought of was Ji Qing, because the woman looked somewhat similar to Ji Qing.
But suddenly ripples appeared in his heart, and an even more incredible idea surfaced.
Quentin couldn't help but look at the majestic woman sitting at the top, and the words on his lips turned into: "I think the woman in the photo looks like... a lot like an old friend."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire council hall fell silent.
Everyone was paying attention to Nie Qingru's reaction.
Unexpectedly, although Nie Qingru thought Ji Qing was a taboo topic and would never allow others to bring it up, she did not react much this time.
She even took the initiative to say the name: "You mean Ji Qing?"
Quentin's eyes flashed: "...I didn't say that."
Nie Qingru looked calm, tapping her fingers on the table, and said slowly, "Qixing is about the same age as her, so it's not impossible."
She said this as if Ji Qing had deliberately seduced Nie Qixing.
Everyone's expression became subtle.
Ji Qing has been dead for so many years, but this incident was caused by Nie Qixing. Nie Qingru put all the blame on Ji Qing without any investigation, which is really not the behavior of a mother.
This is no longer a matter of partiality.
There are actually such mothers in the world.
Just when everyone was shocked by her casual words "They are about the same age, so it's not impossible."
Someone knocked on the door outside, breaking the silence in the room.
"Come in." Old Xue frowned and saw Jacob hurried in from outside, then handed an envelope to Quentin in front of everyone.
"Archbishop, I received another envelope."
The stack of photos was also delivered to Quentin this morning, and this time it was in the same yellow envelope, which made people unable to help but focus their attention on his hands.
… What is it this time
