As soon as the Supreme Emperor came in, he started to discipline Bai Yao.
The Queen Mother's eyes were extremely wet. She pulled Bai Yao and said in a choked voice, "Yao'er, you are too careless. How could you transfer Su Xi and the others away? Is your brain broken? Wuwu..."
Bai Yao twitched the corner of his mouth and patted the Queen Mother on the back carelessly, "Mother, why are you crying? Can't you see that Yao'er is here safely now?"
The Supreme Emperor's face darkened, "If Lie'er hadn't blocked the sword for you, would you still be standing here now?"
Bai Yao was startled and quickly giggled.[
Without Dongmen Lie, Bai Yao would not have died. At least, this was her premonition.
Su Xi came back not long after and brought shocking news to the Supreme Emperor and others. The assassin was a woman. The woman personally admitted that Murong Zixuan had given her the task - to kill Her Majesty the Queen.
The Supreme Emperor was furious and immediately sent tens of thousands of secret guards to capture Murong Zixuan.
"Come here, please send a message to the imperial guards and secret guards. Send 10,000 elite guards to arrest Murong Zixuan immediately! You want to see him alive, and you want to see his body dead! Offer a reward to the rivers and lakes. If you can capture the prisoner Murong Zixuan, you will be rewarded with silver.
One thousand taels!"
Bai Yao's expression changed and he said calmly, "Father, how can you believe that Murong Zixuan did it based on only the words of a woman?"
The Supreme Emperor was displeased, "Yao'er, only Murong Zixuan's subordinates know how to use puppetry. How can you exonerate Murong Zixuan?"
Bai Yao smiled lazily, "Father, although Murong Zixuan is a first-class killer, he has always only killed corrupt officials and scum in the world, so he is loved and envied by people in the world, although the word killer is not glorious...
However, if he is pursued, I am afraid that he will lose the support of the people."
The Supreme Emperor was startled and looked slightly embarrassed.
"Yao'er, my father has never known anything about the world. If you hadn't been to Yijing Villa, I would have made another mistake."
Bai Yao chuckled and said nothing.
The Queen Mother glanced at the unconscious Dongmen Lie worriedly, "Yao'er, it's better to move Lie'er to another palace. This is yours after all..."
"It's okay, Queen Mother. The child needs to be blocked by him to escape danger. The child has to watch him wake up so that he can feel at ease."
Bai Yao glanced slightly from the corner of his eyes, Baili Xun and Huangfu Zhao stood aside, both of them had strange expressions on their faces.
Fengling Hall symbolizes the dignity of the emperor, and the phoenix bed is not something ordinary people can sleep on.
