Chapter 691 The Empress Regnant’s Enchanting Consort (23)
Bai Weiwei expressionlessly placed her hands behind her back, her stance intimidating, and her expression ice-cold .
Full of a ruler’s might and majesty, a gorgeous as a peony, yet as cold as a blade .
“Today, it was the harem, this group of men who don’t know good from bad, who wanted to assassinate zhen’s beloved consort . His command to flog people to death is also zhen’s . ”
With one straightforward sentence; She protected Feng Yunian and successfully shifted all the official’s fury onto herself .
She was completely without a care as she said, “Someone come, send these officials out of the palace . ”
The Imperial guards immediately came over . The officials were dragged out one by one, their howls and curses wholly ignored .
The ministers were driven away .
The corpses were cleared out .
Only the traces of blood remained .
Bai Weiwei let out a breath once she saw that everyone was gone .
She turned around and noticed Feng Yunian staring at her blankly .
Somewhat dazed, the expression in his eyes had become soft and gentle .
Bai Weiwei’s face was cold as she slowly stalked toward him .
“You also should know your wrongs . ”
Feng Yunian was stunned, and then he revealed a mocking smile . “Naturally, I know . I killed all the people in your harem . ”
Although she protected him .
She also blamed him .
Feng Yunian didn’t know why, but anger surged up in his heart .
But Bai Weiwei frowned, and she reached out to hold his hand . “No . If you want to kill someone, then tell me, and I will come to assist you . Using one’s own hands to complete such an arduous task is foolish . Those people will return seeking to settle accounts with you . ”
Feng Yunian’s reaction was somewhat delayed . He obediently followed after Bai Weiwei .
He seemed to be unable to comprehend her words .
He pursed his lips, and he asked in confusion: “You’re not asking me why I killed them?”
Bai Weiwei said indifferently: “Does there need to be a reason? If you are unhappy and wish to kill, then kill . I will take all responsibility for you, ne . ”
Feng Yunian stopped .
His fingers trembled violently, and all his many words were lodged in his throat .
Sourness and excitement mixed, making his heart cry out sharply .
He had risked his life in this step .
She would be furious upon discovering that he had killed the men in her harem .
The worst outcome would be her killing him to cool the officials’ anger .
The best outcome would be her protecting him, but still, demand that he explain his thoughts and cover up his purpose .
But he didn’t expect that she would take all the blame .
And afterward, she didn’t demand that he explain .
It even made Feng Yunian somewhat frightened . It felt just like a dream .
How could anyone protect him like this?
And he didn’t need to struggle to think up a plan .
He finally couldn’t hold back his question . “Are you not afraid that I will throw your country into disorder?”
Bai Weiwei turned her head . Her features were sharp and stunningly beautiful, and her body carried the awe-inspiring might of an empress .
“If you throw my country into disorder, will you be happy?”
Was this an interrogation? Feng Yunian unexpectedly felt a bit nervous .
But Bai Weiwei suddenly smiled . The cold stiffness between her brows softened, and her clear eyes held sincere affection .
“Do it, as long as you are happy . ”
Feng Yunian felt his thoughts crumbled apart at this sentence .
Bai Weiwei’s face was tinted with a light blush, and she said: “Throwing the country into disorder to obtain you is also quite good . ”
Saying this, she seemed somewhat embarrassed, and she turned away .
Suddenly, she felt a tug on her sleeve .
Then his voice came from behind . It was hesitant, no longer with a sense of scheming and plotting .
Instead, there was a trace of cautious ease .
“Your Majesty, I’m hungry . ”
Bai Weiwei immediately said: “Hungry? Then let’s go eat . ”
With that, she eagerly pulled Feng Yunian away to leave .
And Feng Yunian couldn’t hold back a slight smile . It was gentle and beautiful, with the warmth of a heart that had let down its guard .
