Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 213

Princess Xi Ya quickly said: "I saw a silk cloth inside her bag, and the silk cloth was painted with something similar to a dragon or tiger."

Wei Yuanwei suddenly scoffed, "I don't know what the Princess Xi Ya is talking about. Since that item is so important, how could I let you see it?"

Princess Xi Ya became angry from the embarra.s.sment. She knelt on the ground: "I hope royal father can observe."

The emperor's face displayed an awkward expression. In Wei Yuanwei's eyes, she felt that this was an incomparably fake face.

Wei Yuanwei gave a shallow smile: "My daughter-in-law humbly requests royal father to give my daughter-in-law justice."

"Since all of you insist, we can only send people to search." The Emperor seemed to say helplessly.

The guard accepted the order and left. It would take another hour for him to return to the palace on horseback. The entire hall fell into silence.

Prime Minister Wei lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head as she stood at the side. Wei Guanshu's eyes trembled slightly, after two hours, as long as that piece of silk was presented, Wei Yuanwei would die a graveless death.

Princess Xi Ya would never conceal his emotions. She proudly raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Yuanwei with disdain. A few big words were clearly written on his face.

Wei Yuanwei just stood quietly in the middle of the hall, quiet like a water lotus. Even the expression on his face was so calm, not a single ripple could be seen, as though everything was within her control.

When the Prime Minister Wei had mentioned this to him back then, he had also been hesitant about it. Why would such an important thing appear in the hands of a weak girl, and why would the Prime Minister Wei only a.n.a.lyze it so thoroughly? Furthermore, under the enticement of the wealth, he would be tempted by her in the end.

As long as he had that wealth, he would be able to recruit new troops and make the Eastern Chu dominate the world. With that wealth, he would no longer be worried about the lack of national treasury, and would be able to solve all his problems.

The emperor's hand lightly knocked on the pear blossom wood table, and a ringing sound hit the hearts of everyone like a great bell.

The guard who had been sent to the palace had returned. He handed the handkerchief he had found to the palace maid, who handed it over to him.

After opening the silk, the Emperor revealed a strange expression.

Prime Minister Wei was already pointing her finger at Wei Yuanwei and denouncing him harshly, "Now that the evidence is conclusive, this old man wants to see how you can still argue with me! The things in the entire Eastern Chu are the emperor's, and you actually dare to hide this thing. Who dares to lend you such big guts, or is it that you want to stir up a storm in the Eastern Chu? "

"Grandfather, please don't say that about little sister. Maybe little sister also has her own difficulties." Wei Guanshu stepped forward to support Prime Minister Wei, a look of pity on her face as she vividly displayed her good sister.

That gentle tone, that caring gaze, almost made Wei Yuanwei clap her hands and cheer for his.

"Is that thing that royal father wants?" Wei Yuanwei ignored Prime Minister Wei's accusation and looked towards the Emperor.

The emperor's face was crisscrossed with blue and red, and his eyes were filled with anger. He almost wiped his teeth as he said, "Your Majesty, is this what you want me to see?"

Prime Minister Wei's expression changed greatly. He went forward and wanted to say something, but the Emperor raised her hand and threw the thin silk onto Prime Minister Wei's face.

Prime Minister Wei opened up the silk cloth, and when he clearly saw the pattern on it, her face instantly paled, and the hand holding the silk cloth started to tremble.

The silk cloth fell from his hands that were like dried wood and gently landed in front of Wei Guanshu. On the silk piece of silk, there was indeed half a dragon and half a tiger painted on it.

It was just the Dragon and Tiger cartoon pattern drawn by Wei Yuanwei.

How could this be? Prime Minister Wei's eyes were like ice blades as they swept across Wei Guanshu's body, causing him to s.h.i.+ver uncontrollably.

The Prime Minister Wei calmed down very quickly and shouted sternly at Wei Yuanwei: "Insolent monster, you actually used this kind of thing to fool the emperor, why aren't you quickly handing over the Dragon and Tiger Robe Jade Pendant?"

Wei Yuanwei slightly narrowed his eyes, his red lips slightly parted as he slowly spat out a sentence: "Oh, so you guys were looking for a Dragon and Tiger pattern jade pendant, what a coincidence, I only have a single Cyan Heaven Linglong Jade on me, if grandfather likes it, feel free to take it."

Prime Minister Wei was shocked, just now she was in a hurry, and actually said out the name of the jade pendant.

His Majesty's gaze on Prime Minister Wei grew colder and colder. He seemed to realize that he had been played by this old man, he was the ruler of the entire Eastern Chu, the ruler of the entire Eastern Chu. He had actually been toyed with by his subjects.

"I hope that your majesty can make clear that you don't easily believe that b.a.s.t.a.r.d's slanderous words. She must have used a subterfuge to hide the true imprint!" The Prime Minister Wei was so anxious to defend herself, she did not even care about the honor of being the sovereign.

The Emperor raised his leg and kicked Prime Minister Wei's chest, causing his entire body to fall to the ground, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Wei Guanshu didn't dare to move at this moment either. What she was thinking wasn't about how to trap Wei Yuanwei, but how to find an excuse to escape.

"Iris had always had a question in her heart. Why did the Prime Minister Wei insist that Wei Yuanwei had the Dragon and Tiger Tattooed Jade Pendant?" Wei Yuanwei looked at Prime Minister Wei who was lying on the ground like a stray dog, her eyes were filled with disdain, and the corner of her mouth slightly curled up, showing an endless amount of ridicule.

The scheming Prime Minister Wei was also confused at the same time, when he took the risk to help Wei Guanshu take this move, did he think of this outcome?

Prime Minister Wei felt that this was an opportunity to defend herself. He followed up on her previous words and said angrily: "The one who matched up with your mother was none other than a member of the underworld clan. He left this jade pendant with your mother and disappeared without a trace.

Wei Yuanwei suddenly burst out in laughter, she was laughing so hard that she could barely stand up straight, wiping away the tears that did not exist at the corner of her eyes, and said with a disdainful tone: "Grandfather is such a shrewd person, why would he just watch as someone manipulated him and took the jade pendant away?"

Prime Minister Wei bellowed: "Don't try to quibble!"

Wei Yuanwei suddenly knelt on the ground, her face was full of respect: "Iris has indeed seen this jade pendant before."

"Humph!" You have finally admitted it, why haven't you quickly submitted to royal father? " Princess Xi Ya raised her eyebrows, her face revealing a happy expression.

The emperor just looked at everyone with a cold expression.

"It's just that Wei Yuanwei only happened to see the Dragon and Tiger pattern on the jade pendant when she was young, that's why she used her own memories to draw that unusual imprint."
