BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1427 - Prove What?
Chapter 1427: Prove What?
Seeing this, some of the guests below the stage even stood up.
“What… happened?”
“I don’t know. It doesn’t seem like there was a dispute?”
Bailey grabbed the back of someone’s chair and leaned her entire weight against it.
She supported her forehead with her hand and tried her best to calm her flustered heart.
She had never expected Shen Fanxing to be interested in piano music.
It was just a song. Did he have to reveal his identity?
A moment later, a sinister glint flashed across her eyes.
Her meticulously dyed nails suddenly snapped.
How could she… let Shen Fanxing take everything away from her so easily?
Yulia strode towards Shen Fanxing with tears streaming down her face. She looked up at the young woman who was a few centimeters taller than her.
There was an explanation for her inexplicable palpitations and the familiarity she exuded.
This was… Phoneix’s daughter…
‘Really?’
‘Really?’
‘Really?’
Should she look forward to it?
Would her hopes be dashed?
Wasn’t her Phoneix… dead?
So, was this child really her granddaughter?
No one could understand her current feelings.
The person she had missed her whole life…
She didn’t even dare to have any expectations. She was afraid that… the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
But now, how could she remain indifferent?
She raised her hand slowly and caressed Shen Fanxing’s hair.
Her face was full of love.
“Your mother… is she okay?”
Shen Fanxing’s eyes flashed. She had too many questions now and she didn’t know what to do.
What was her mother thinking?
If it was really as she thought, then why hadn’t she thought of coming back all these years…
If not for Old Master Bo using his status to suppress her, she thought that her mother might have hidden this secret forever.
Didn’t she want to come back?
She didn’t want to return to her mother?
“She…”
“Arrest her!”
Shen Fanxing was interrupted by a cold voice.
Just as she turned her head, she saw a few people in Y Country’s uniform surrounding her.
She frowned and took a few steps to the side, avoiding the two people who tried to subdue her. When she looked up again, her eyes were already covered in a layer of frost.
“Impudent?!”
Queen Yulia’s dignified shout made the surrounding soldiers retreat a few steps.
“What do you want?!” Yulia stepped forward and shielded Shen Fanxing behind her. She glared at them angrily.
“Grandma…” Bailey’s voice sounded slowly. The soldiers made way for her. Shen Fanxing looked up and saw Bailey walking over elegantly, her eyes cold and guarded.
“Although I don’t know what happened to the tune that Miss Shen played just now, from the looks of it, I’m worried that… you’ve been deceived by someone.”
Shen Fanxing frowned and stared into Bailey’s eyes for a long time. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
“Worried that I’ve been deceived?”
Bailey nodded. “It’s just a song. Although it might have a special meaning to you, how can you guarantee that this song has been circulating for so many years? Perhaps this song is already very common somewhere? Isn’t it too rash to determine something just because of a song?”
“…”
The coldness on Shen Fanxing’s face deepened and her lips curled into a mocking smile.
“Then, Princess Bailey, can you tell me what I want the queen to decide with a song?”
Bailey’s expression changed slightly. What a seamless woman.
She could find flaws in her words.
“Princess Bailey, did you… know something long ago?”
Hearing this, Queen Yulia turned to look at Bailey calmly.
Bailey secretly gritted her teeth. She knew her grandmother’s habit.
The angrier and more confused she was, the calmer she appeared.
She could see through everyone’s thoughts and motives.
“Even Miss Shen might know and dare to make a fuss here. Why can’t I know?”
It was chaos below the stage.
After all, they had already mobilized their troops.
Shen Fanxing nodded and looked at Bailey. “I hope you can produce evidence before getting these people to arrest me. Without evidence…” She paused and turned to look at Queen Yulia, who was standing beside her. “Without evidence, you want to arrest me without saying anything. So this is how Country Y governs the country?”
The audience fell silent.
These adjectives were not suitable to evaluate anyone in the royal family.
Bailey’s face fell.
Such an evaluation in front of so many foreign envoys had severely affected her future goal of reaching the throne. It had also degraded her image.
“Alright, I apologize. I misunderstood Miss Shen. Since Miss Shen has finished her performance, shouldn’t you leave?”
Shen Fanxing smirked and said, “You make it sound like I’m bringing a few people to cause trouble.”
Bailey frowned deeply. “What do you want?”
Shen Fanxing raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. She turned around and leaned against Jean.
“I don’t accept apologies.”
She looked up at the audience and pursed her lips helplessly.
How… embarrassing.
“I was invited by Country Y. In the end, I was almost slandered as a swindler and became a prisoner. I became the laughing stock of the world. The apology just now was too perfunctory. I know what will happen next. Perhaps no one understands public opinion better than me, but I only want justice. It’s not something I should bear. I’m not willing to take the blame.”
“Therefore, it’s best for us to resolve today’s matter on the spot. After this incident, things will be out of my control. As the princess of Country Y, there’s no reason for you to disregard the country’s image and mobilize your troops to cause trouble at the state banquet without any evidence. I have nothing to do with Country Y. I’ve never eaten half a catty of your food and have been slandered as a swindler. Hence, I have to take into account your country’s reputation and take the initiative to compromise. Don’t you agree?”
She was simply too difficult to deal with!
Bailey really didn’t expect this woman to be such an unpredictable person.
She had said everything!
What else did she say?
“Then Miss Shen, I’ll give you a chance to defend yourself now. If I’m not slandering you, you can use another way to prove that your motive today is correct. But the premise is that you can forget about this piano piece. Perhaps it was unique in the past, but it might not be anymore.”
Shen Fanxing asked calmly, “Another way to prove my motive today? What motive? To prove that my mother is Queen Yulia’s biological daughter?”
“Boom—”
No matter how much they tried to suppress their curiosity, the guests who had to maintain their composure and observe the development of the situation became excited after hearing Shen Fanxing’s words.
“What?! Queen Yulia’s daughter?!”
“Didn’t you say that she died decades ago?!”
“If she really is, then wouldn’t this woman…”
