Chapter 84 Better than early death

When Wanji came to Niannan Liyuan, Gu Yin was not there, so Xue Gui, the director of the Liyuan, received him.

Wan Ji waited for a while, but before Gu Yin came back, he saw that what he had said was not a secret, so he asked Xue Gui to tell it on his behalf and asked to see the portrait.

Xue Gui thought, since the fourth prince himself took the initiative to speak, it must be visible to outsiders, and it must have a purpose.

Without making any excuses, he directly brought Wanji into the room. In front of him, he found a portrait in the second drawer of the closet and showed it to him.

Seeing that it was a portrait of a young woman, Wanji was not too surprised and asked Xue Gui: "Do you know who it is?"

Xue Gui shook his head: "I don't know."

Of course he knew it, it was the portrait of the fourth prince's mother-in-law, Concubine De, when she was young.

He didn't know why the Fourth Prince did this, but he knew that since Wanji asked who it was, it meant that the Fourth Prince didn't tell him who the person in the portrait was, so naturally he couldn't tell him either.

Wan Ji nodded, indicating that he understood, and then returned to the palace to resume his duties.

When Lu Chengxi walked into the study with a memorial that needed to be reviewed, Bai Jiuxiao was sitting at the desk reading the military daily.

"Your Majesty, when the last general entered the palace to collect the memorial, he met Wan Ji. He said that Ning Si, who was imprisoned in the sky prison, asked him to bring a message to the prince."

"What are you talking about?" Bai Jiuxiao asked quietly without raising his eyes.

Lu Chengxi pursed his lips and hesitated.

Seeing that he was silent, Bai Jiuxiao raised her eyelids and looked at him.

"He said it." Lu Chengxi still didn't dare: "My lord, please forgive me first, and then I will dare to speak."

"Well, tell me."

"He said that because the prince framed him like this, he would not die a good death." After Lu Chengxi finished speaking, he carefully observed Bai Jiuxiao's expression.

Bai Jiuxiao sneered disdainfully: "If you still speak harshly when you are about to die, no matter how hard it is for me to die a good death, it would be better than him to die early."

Lu Chengxi: "."

"The king of daily newspapers has given instructions. Send it to the army." Bai Jiuxiao handed the book in his hand to Lu Chengxi, not affected by this curse at all.

Lu Chengxi accepted the order: "Yes!"

Bai Jiuxiao picked up a memorial and opened it.

Lu Chengxi bowed and exited the study.

After Lu Chengxi left, Bai Jiuxiao threw the memorial in his hand on the table and leaned against the back of the chair.

In Ning Shiqian's eyes, his prejudice against Bai Jiuxiao was so deep-rooted that he was so insistent that she framed him!

It doesn't matter, at this time, it's okay to think that she is a villain.

She thought about it after last night and felt that the reason why her emperor brother had such a big reaction was that besides feeling that Ning Shiqian had offended her, the most important reason was that he was afraid that she would fall in love with Ning Shiqian.

That's why he said: "Or is it that the imperial sister is interested in him and wants to be intimate with him?"

In fact, she understood why her emperor brother thought so.

After all, she, a person who usually doesn't let people get close to her, would touch and kiss a man, which was really abnormal. If it were her, she would think too much about it.

Likewise, she also understood why her emperor brother would get angry and kill him.

After all, in his eyes, Ning Shiqian was just a lowly actor, and he had a close relationship with the fourth prince of the enemy country.

Therefore, she never said a word for Ning Shiqian, let alone plead for him.

She even turned Gu Yin away when he asked to see him.

Otherwise, it will only make Ning Shiqian die faster.

All she could do was to act like she had no idea about Ning Shiqian, and was even a little hostile.

Ning Shiqian's line about cursing her to die was very good, and it worked just fine.

If Wanji dared to ask Lu Chengxi to tell such a vicious curse, she must have received the permission from her emperor brother.

Probably her emperor brother wanted to see her reaction after hearing this.

Sitting upright, she began to review the memorial.

When she saw the date on the memorial, she was shocked to realize that today was the fifteenth, and immediately turned to look at the time clock in the corner.

It's almost noon!

She stood up immediately and strode out.
