1045 Chapter 1045 “Critical Questions“
These smart people were, of course, top figures of the kingdom such as the prime minister, the economy minister, the military minister, the best doctor in the kingdom, imperial teacher and a few others.
These old people were so calm throughout the case. Even their children were also the same, especially the young men who would inherit their father’s status in the future.
"Son, look closely. This case is interesting. You will learn a lot from this. Make sure you know how to act in the future when such case happened again" The military minister nudged his son to pay attention to the whole case.
This could be a good learning material for his son. A military minister had to be smart to make strategy and such. They didn’t only have to be strong but also had to be clever.
"Yes, father" The son nodded as he paid full attention to Li Shi Ying. Up until now, the one accused hasn’t said anything. He was curious as to how this human would react.
The other minister also whispered to their daughter or son asking them to analyse the situation. The best doctor in the kingdom asked his daughter, the lady in green which Li Shi Ying visited before, to analyse the possibility of Li Shi Ying turning the table.
"So this is why Lady Li come to our house, right, father?" The lady in green rubbed her chin finding Li Shi Ying to be interesting. That girl was so well-prepared, cautious, calm and shrewd. Such a girl was really suitable to be an empress.
"Yes, you guessed it right now look at how Lady Li handle this. You should learn from her" The doctor stroked his daughter’s head as he too paid attention to Li Shi Ying.
"Imperial father, mind if I make my own explanation?" Li Shi Ying unhurriedly stood up from her seat. The girl bowed to the Emperor politely and as calm as usual. Her voice wasn’t trembling at all and her posture was elegant. There’s no hint of panic or fear could be detected on her.
This made the guests once again admired Li Shi Ying’s trait even though they suspected her. To be this calm in such a dire situation where her life was at stake...this girl was no joke. She was even still 16 years old!
"I allow you" the emperor nodded without smiling. His voice sounded cold and stern but the man himself actually felt nervous for Li Shi Ying. That girl could be calm but he couldn’t ah!
"I thank imperial father for the grace" Li Shi Ying bowed again before she turned around this time facing the whole crowd. Her eyes scanned through each of them unhurriedly and calm. Her gaze was so deep and that pair of beautiful eyes made some people couldn’t help but get heartthrob.
Even though this girl was the main suspect how come she still looked so beautiful? Unfair!
"First of all, of course, I want to clarify that I am not the one putting poison inside the imperial mother’s tea. I know that all esteemed guests here think that I’m the culprit thanks to the sachet dropped near my chair but let me ask a question. If any of you is in my position, for example, you are the culprit. Will you so careless to drop such important evidence?"
Li Shi Ying began her speech and ended it with a very, critical question. Instead of blabbering here and there trying to convince the guests, the girl threw a question to each of them instead. These people weren’t an idiot so they should be able to think more than what they saw at the surface.
This question threw by Li Shi Ying stunned everyone. They didn’t think the girl would ask them something like this. If they were the culprit would they carelessly drop the evidence? The answer is...which idiot would do that? They would already burn the sachet the moment they used it.
"I know all of us to have the answer here so...do you think I’m so dumb to drop the sachet? Not only that why would you people think that the sachet is mine just because it dropped near my chair? It can be that someone else who sits next to me is the one who drops it"
Li Shi Ying looked at Yan Fenghuang as she emphasised ’someone next to me’. The girl smirked seeing Yan Fenghuang’s face turned dark.
"What do you mean? Are you accusing me now?" Yan Fenghuang crossed her legs together and raised her chin when Li Shi Ying mentioned her. The only one who sat near Li Shi Ying was indeed her. This girl wanted to shift the blame to her now!
"I didn’t say it’s you but you see as the person who first found the sachet...don’t you think that it’s weird how you notice the sachet even earlier than me?" Li Shi Ying tilted her head as if couldn’t understand the strange thing here. The girl smiled sweetly and before the guests and Yan Fenghuang could react, she continued her speech.
"If I indeed possess the sachet and drop it, I should be the first one to realize this. I will then try to hide the sachet under my chair or something. How come you notice it so fast? Unless you were really watching my leg or something..."
The girl looked down on her leg and shyly covered it with other parts of her skirts.
