Chapter 536 Weaving A Trap For Qin Wenya



Chapter 536 Weaving A Trap For Qin Wenya

Slap!

The loud sound of the slap echoed in the huge Imperial banquet hall.

Everyone looked at the old nanny who was now lying on the floor with her head tilted sideways.

The old nanny\'s eyes were filled with shock as she stared at nothing in particular.

It was perhaps the second time the princess had slapped her. The last time was when she had advised her about something the princess had not liked, however, even at that time the princess had been brainwashed by her in a few days.

Brainwashed to kill Li Rui.

Though she had never apologized, the old nanny had comforted herself by saying that she still completed her job.

Princess Wenling\'s cold and sharp voice sounded in the nanny\'s ears which were still ringing with the loud sound of the slap.

"How dare you, a servant, smear my name like this!"

"When did I ever ask you to hire anyone to kill Rui?"

Princess Wenling\'s eyes were full of disbelief as she looked down at the old nanny. The people couldn\'t help but start to believe that Princess Wenling really didn\'t know anything about all this from the beginning itself.

The noble family members shook their heads as their eyes filled with disgust and looked at the old nanny.

That\'s why they say that you should not favor these servants more than needed.

Almost all of them knew that the old nanny was the most favored servant of the Princess.

And this was how the old nanny repaid!

But there was still one more question left!

Perhaps the people didn\'t think of that question or if they did, no one dared to ask. However, Xi Ying fearlessly asked the pretenseful princess.

"So, Your Highness means to say that this old nanny who is also Your Highness\' servant planned all that …without even letting Your Highness know anything."

Xi Ying raised his eyebrows in surprise as he pondered over his own question. On the other hand, Princess Wenling was happy to see that even though just to ask this question, Xi Ying was finally talking to her.

She controlled the smile of excitement that was about to threaten from her lips and nodded her head with a pitiful face that she thought would incite some pity inside Xi Ying\'s heart.

However, when she heard Xi Ying\'s next questions, her heart sank inside her chest.

"But Your Highness, Why did this old nanny do so? What kind of enmity did the old nanny have with this Lord\'s wife?"

The question made Princess Wenling\'s throat dry.

Though she didn\'t know what kind of relationship that man had with Li Rui, she had indeed asked the old nanny to hire someone to scare Li Rui.

Though it was only to scare Li Rui, who would believe her if she really revealed what she had wanted to do!

So she could not do so.

Princess Wenling swallowed as she tried to come up with something. However, nothing came to her mind.

In the end, she shook her head innocently and said

"Prime Minister Xi, I don\'t know the answer to your question. This thing…I think only she can answer."

Princess Wenling said in a very soft and gentle voice. However, when her eyes fell on the old nanny, they were filled with pain as if the betrayal from the old nanny had hurt her very much.

Looking towards the still shocked old nanny she whispered in a choked voice.

"Nanny, why did you do so? What did I not give you? I used to respect you so much but you…"

A tear nicely slid out of the princess\' eyes as she continued

"Rui and me…regardless of whatever she did to me, I have always considered her as my friend."

Princess Wenling moved her eyes to look at Xi Ying with a sad smile on her lips as she said this.

However, all her pretense was in vain when she found that Xi Ying was not even looking at her. Instead, he was looking at the old nanny.

Stepping forward, he took out his sword in one swift move and then put it on the old nanny\'s neck.

"This Lord wants one thing …either the answer or your head."

Xi Ying said coldly while the old nanny trembled fiercely under the sword. Princess Wenling\'s eyes were also wide as she had not expected that Xi Ying would do such a thing here.

She clenched her fists tightly and prayed inside her heart that the old nanny would not take her name.

In the current circumstances, even if the old nanny revealed that she was asked by her(Princess Wenling) to find someone to scare Li Rui, even then Xi Ying would despise her.

And she didn\'t want that.

The old nanny lowered her eyes suddenly.

She stayed silent for a few moments. Just when Xi Ying was about to move his sword forward to cut her head and Zhao Wang Lei was about to stop him, her voice sounded

"It was Her Majesty, the Empress who had asked me to do so."

And the Imperial banquet hall went silent again before the sharp whispers echoed in it again!

The Empress had ordered the old nanny to hire someone to kill Li Rui.

Qin Wenya who was sitting beside Zhao Wang Lei had her eyes narrowed, but her eyes didn\'t have any fear as she said coldly.

"Nanny, do you think that anyone would believe you if you spout rubbish against Bengong?"

It was only Zhao Wang Lei whose eyes flashed suddenly. His fists inside his sleeves clenched tightly and he immediately saw an opportunity in front of him.

The opportunity to lower Qin Wenya\'s high prestige so that the mighty Empress and princess of the Qin Empire won\'t dare to threaten him again.

He just wished that his most trusted servant, the old nanny, was really going to do what he was thinking she was going to do.

The old nanny raised her eyes and looked at Xi Ying without any fear in her eyes.

"Four years ago…"

She paused for a moment before she continued

"Her Majesty had come to know that Li Sisters had planned against Lady Li but she hid it from everyone."

And the new revelation was the origin of the new whispers.
