C528 Planting

Baili Jinxiu was clearly warning Gong Xiaohan this, but unfortunately, he said that in a plain and reasonable manner. Gong Xiaohan clenched his fists under his sleeves, and a sentence popped out from between his teeth: "Royal Sister-In-Law has learnt his lesson, next time I see it clearly."

Baili Jinxiu only laughed and did not speak any further.

The procession that was originally going to offer sacrifices to the Ancestor would no longer continue to exist after what had happened. Looking at the mess on the ground and the shocked expression on the Emperor's face, it was clear to see.

This was only the first time an assassin had become like this. If they were to do it again …

But this Ancestor Sacrifice had always been a part of the royal family's traditions. If they didn't go, then it would be considered unfilial.

Seeing the conflicted look on Emperor's face, Gong Xiaohan smiled mockingly, took two steps forward, knelt down respectfully and said: "Royal father was scared by an assassin, why not go back to the palace and rest, and let this son pay respects for you."

Baili Jinxiu smiled playfully at Gong Xiaohan. On the other hand, Gong Xiaohan knew how to react, and if he showed up in time to relieve the emperor's worries, he would probably get the title of Crown Prince that easily.

Gong Xiaohan had given Emperor enough face to step down from the stage. Emperor thought for a moment, then laughed: "That's good."

Baili Jinxiu laughed sarcastically at the side. With the other abilities of the crown prince, he had learnt how to flatter his family.

As a result, the ceremony was split into two teams, and Emperor led a large portion of the people back to the palace. Gong Xiaohan then brought some people that were necessary to head to the imperial temple at the outskirts of the city, the neglected Baili Jinxiu slowly walked back to the Duke Palace.

"Yo, Princess An is rather relaxed, wandering around on this street."

Baili Jinxiu was startled, today there were two who liked to call for people from behind, it was truly interesting.

But Baili Jinxiu was not in the mood to deal with this irritating Crown Prince Jin Nie, so he pretended not to hear anything and walked forward, his footsteps secretly speeding up.

Prince Jin Nie fanned himself with a fan in his hands, and quickly stood in front of Baili Jinxiu, blocking his way. As if he was a scoundrel in a city, he laughed: "These are considered acquaintances, why don't you give me some face and run away?"

Crown Prince Jin Nie was smiling happily on the surface, but on the bottom of his heart, he secretly shot a look at Baili Jinxiu many times. His advisor had been captured right in front of his eyes. Yesterday night, his corpse was left at the entrance of the relay station. This was a slap in the face!

However, when he thought about how his plans had been ruined by Baili Jinxiu today, a pleased look surfaced on Prince Jin Nie's face. Or is it because you're in a hurry to return home and think about it? "

Baili Jinxiu felt that this Crown Prince Jin Nie was asking for a beating. He was purposely provoking Ye Xiao, making Ye Xiao a joke.

Baili Jinxiu walked two steps towards Crown Prince Jin Nie and slightly raised his hand. Crown Prince Jin Nie immediately retreated two steps back in fear, and asked cautiously: "Baili Jinxiu, what are you trying to do?"

Baili Jinxiu laughed softly, "Yo, Crown Prince Jin Nie must have despised me for not giving you face right? Now that I have specially greeted you, why is it that Prince Jin Nie is actually so afraid?

Also, this wangfei seemed to have heard from the Crown Prince Jin Nie just now that this wangfei failed in her assassination attempt? The Emperor and the Crown Prince both admitted that they had seen the wrong person and misunderstood this wangfei. What evidence did Crown Prince Jin Nie have? If not, then I'm afraid that you would have to explain it all to this wangfei in front of Emperor! "

The last time Baili Jinxiu and Gong Xiaoxuan were punished and grounded by the Emperor was because the Crown Prince Jin Nie had said that the Prince An was slandering him.

However, it was obvious that Crown Prince Jin Nie was only here to cause trouble for Baili Jinxiu, and did not continue to pester her. He smiled and said, "I was just joking with Princess An, really."

I'm joking about your brother-in-law!

Even though Baili Jinxiu was not happy in his heart, he still forced a smile out of his face. "I wonder if Crown Prince Jin Nie has anything to say to this wangfei? If there's nothing else, please do not block my way. "

Right now, Baili Jinxiu only wanted to go back and tidy up a bit, completely not wanting to get entangled with Crown Prince Jin Nie. It was a pity that Crown Prince Jin Nie kept pestering her. After fanning himself, he pointed to a teahouse by the side and asked: "Since there's nothing else to do, how about I have the wangfei accompany me for a cup of tea?"

Not going, this was Baili Jinxiu's first reaction, but after thinking about it, he still agreed with a smile and walked towards the teahouse with Prince Jin Nie.

Baili Jinxiu ordered a pot of coarse tea and poured it for himself, sipping on it.

The Crown Prince of Jin Nie saw that Baili Jinxiu was drinking so sweetly, so he poured himself a cup too. After taking a sip, he placed the cup back on the table and played with the fan.

A trace of laughter flashed past Baili Jinxiu's eyes.

Crown Prince Jin Nie probably never thought that Baili Jinxiu would be so straightforward to come to this teahouse with him, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

"Pu!" A muffled sound came out, Baili Jinxiu held back his laughter and looked at Prince Jin Nie, only to see that Prince Jin Nie's face had already turned yellow. He then hurriedly headed to the backyard.

As Baili Jinxiu asked the waiter to serve another pot of green tea, he held back his laughter. The Crown Prince Jin Nie was too annoying, so when he was pouring the tea, he accidentally dropped a bit of the bean powder into the tea. Although the amount was small, the effects were extremely strong, so much so that the Crown Prince wouldn't be able to come out for a day.

Baili Jinxiu leisurely drank two cups of tea, then paid the bill and left. On the second day, he heard that the restaurant on the side of Chang An Street had a stinky smell from yesterday, which made the entire teahouse smell. Of course, that was something to be said later.

On the journey back to the palace this time, there were no more surprises. After Baili Jinxiu naturally returned, another message came from the Yolk Sect, "When he was ambushed in the imperial temple, the news released said it was also done by the black-robed assassins. Now that Gong Xiaohan's life and death was unknown, the imperial temple has been sealed up layer by layer."

Baili Jinxiu's heart thumped, instantly understanding the reason behind the things that happened today.

The black clothed man who assassinated the Emperor was not really here to assassinate the Emperor, but rather to lure his own people out. His final goal was to let the Emperor personally experience it so that he could become even more angry when Gong Xiaohan was "assassinated".

It had to be known that going to offer sacrifices to the ancestors was a matter of the Emperor s. If it wasn't for Gong Xiaohan replacing the Emperor in paying respects to the ancestors in the imperial temple, the person who was injured by the assassination would be the Emperor!

Baili Jinxiu's eyes flashed a look of thought. Seems like Crown Prince Jin Nie also had a reason for pestering him in the afternoon. In order to keep busy, he got Gong Xiaohan to spread the news.

Then, it was very likely that Gong Xiaohan had not been assassinated, and this assassination was just a torture to him. Gong Xiaohan had already arranged for people to come here, and acted out a show where assassins would be killed on their own.

If Baili Jinxiu was not mistaken, the final goal of this drama was — framing him!
