Chapter 535 What Will Princess Wenling Do?

"It was me…it was me who tried to kill Lady Li…"

The guards started stuttering loudly as soon as Xi Ying finished his words.

The whole Imperial banquet hall was echoing with his voice.

In fear, he looked around the banquet hall and then suddenly pointed his finger in Princess Wenling\'s direction.

"That woman….it was she who had asked me to do so. It was she who told me that Lady Lii killed my brother, My Brother…I had loved him so much so I was very grieving over his death even after four years. I was furious at Lady Li and decided to use that opportunity to avenge my brother. That woman helped me in getting inside the Imperial Palace when Lady Li entered to meet Princess Consort Yi and I….I .. attempted to kill her when she was passing by the Imperial Garden."

An ear-deafening silence prevailed in the banquet hall after the guard finished his words. People looked at each other and then at Princess Wenling.

Everyone was aware of her affection for Xi Ying so they could obviously conclude why Princess Wenling did this.

If It was before then perhaps some people would have understood the reason behind her actions…after all, in their eyes, then Li Rui had stolen the man Princess Wenling had loved all these years by using vicious schemes.

However, now it was clear to everyone that Li Rui never planned that incident four years ago. She herself was a victim who was coincidentally saved by Xi Ying instead of becoming prey of an Imperial Guard.

In their eyes, Li Rui was still lucky.

In the end, her sister\'s viciousness proved to be a fortune for her.

If only they knew what all she had suffered to get the fortune of this fortunate fate.

Putting aside all this, everyone now felt a little disgusted by Princess Wenling\'s actions. Regardless of what Li Rui did, was it right to hire a man to kill someone?

Now they were waiting to see what the Emperor would do.

Will he punish the princess he adored as Xi Ying wanted or will he let her go?

But even if the Emperor decided to let Princess Wenling go then would Xi Ying accept this?

Zhao Wang Lei was silent. His face was still emotionless making anyone unable t9o comprehend what exactly was going on inside his mind.

It was a few moments later when his eyes flickered suddenly and he opened his mouth to say something.

However, before he could let out a sound, Princess Wenling suddenly stood up from her seat and started shouting

"It was not me…It was never me. It was her…all of this is done by her."

Zhao Wang Lei\'s fists clenched inside his sleeves as he looked at the stupid princess who was pointing her finger at the old nanny.

He cursed her inside his heart. She didn\'t need to say anything. He was about to handle the situation.

He could always tell Xi Ying that he could not believe this Imperial Guard anymore because the Imperial Guard completely looked very scared of Xi Ying so he could always try to point out that Xi Ying might be forcing the Imperial Guard to say all this.

Even at this moment, Zhao Wang Lei was trying to manage everything but Princess Wenling started to speak again as she climbed down from her seat which was a little higher than from others.

Standing in front of the man who was badly beaten and bruised, the princess looked into his eyes sharply and coldly.

Pointing her finger towards the old nanny whose mouth was still partly opened as she tried to comprehend whatever was going on, she asked

"Was it she who had asked you to do so?"

The man followed her finger slowly and looked towards the old nanny for a few moments and nodded his head slowly.

Xi Ying frowned deeply as he understood where this was going.

He wanted the punishment for both Princess Wenling and the old nanny. However, now it seems that Princess Wenling would save herself.

"Then why did you point your finger at Princess Wenling just now?"

It was Zhao Zhuang Chen who spoke this time.

Standing up from his seat, he was now glaring at the badly beaten man. If something stained his sister\'s reputation, then Zhao Zhuang Chen knew very well that it would become an obstacle in his path to getting the throne also. After all, Zhao Wenling was his sister.

The man immediately shook his head and gathered his weak strength to let out the words without stuttering.

"No, Your Highness. It was that…that old nanny. This one had always been talking about her."

Princess Wenling sighed in relief while the old nanny\'s face went paler than before as if her whole world had collapsed suddenly.

"No…"

She shouted suddenly as she also climbed down from the seat where Princess Wenling was sitting. All this while, she had been standing by Princess Wenlig\'s side.

Now she was understanding why the princess wanted to know everything about that incident. She was just looking for something that could save her and now she would be able to save herself.

Because the man had really never seen the princess before.

It was only she who had done so at the Emperor\'s command but still, she couldn\'t just let her name stain like this and then get the punishment.

On the other hand, the badly beaten man was terrified when he heard the old nanny denying his claim.

If they proved that it was he who was lying then he would get only death because that was what they do with a person who lied in front of the Emperor.

"It was she…"

The man said in a loud voice and continued

"I remember her face very clearly. She even had offered the money. She had told me that her mistress Princess Wenling despised Lady Li and since Lady Li had killed my brother, it would be good for both of us if I killed Lady Li."

The old nanny swallowed as she knew that whatever the man was saying was indeed true while princess Wenling\'s lips quivered in fear and panic hearing the man\'s words.

She couldn\'t help but glare at the old nanny hearing this.

Who tells a man who was being hired to do a thing like murder such a thing?

Feeling everyone\'s eyes on her, she couldn\'t help but clench her fists in fear and panic.

Now, what will she do?
