This time, Yan Xiaoxi was completely stupefied. She couldn't understand what this man was thinking.

Unexpectedly, he was even more changeable than her.

Forget it, all of this had nothing to do with her.

After settling this matter, she planned to part ways with Nangong Lin and search for the Multicolored Stone alone for the treasure.

At that time, all kinds of delicious food and beautiful men were present. Yan Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh when she thought about this scene.

The ministers looked at Yan Xiaoxi doubtfully. No one could understand why she would laugh so suddenly.

Seeing this, Liu Zhixue was momentarily stunned. Her face was extremely pale, and even though her long nails had sunk into her flesh, she could not feel any pain.

Because there was nothing more eye-catching than Yan Xiaoxi's smile, which seemed to be showing off, but also seemed to be mocking her for her foolishness. Every movement, every expression, was all ridiculing her.

From the moment Yan Xiaoxi became Nangong Lin's first wife, she and Liu Zhixue were destined to become enemies.

Nangong Lin glanced at Yan Xiaoxi. No one could understand this woman's ridiculous laughter better than him.

There were only two reasons for it. First, she thought of delicious food. Second, she thought of the beautiful man. Looking at her wild laughter just now, she must have thought of these two reasons at the same time.

"Your majesty, are you still going to allow Princess Lin to continue messing around?" For some reason, Liu Zhitian, who was always so calm, also started to target Yan Xiaoxi.

Nangong Xiao sat on top of the tower and glanced at Yan Xiaoxi before replying: "We can't let Princess An Jing say that our Nanshui Kingdom wrongly accused people."

These words were obviously intended to be partial towards Yan Xiaoxi.

Liu Zhitian was stunned. He would never have thought that in such a short period of time, Yan Xiaoxi was able to make someone who didn't believe her start to speak up for her. It was too strange.

"Calm down, General Liu. When this Concubine takes out the evidence, you'll know whether I'm messing around or not." Of course, Yan Xiaoxi also understood the reason why Liu Zhitian was so impatient at this time.

Presumably, he had also noticed the jade pendant and felt that Yan Xiaoxi's next words would definitely be detrimental to Liu Zhixue. Therefore, he decided to open his mouth and try to stop her.

Liu Zhitian's wishful thinking was not bad. If it were any other matter, with his influence in the court, perhaps Nangong Xiao would give him face.

However, this matter had gone through many twists and turns. The way things developed afterwards was no longer something that anyone could control.

"Princess Lin, stop keeping us in suspense." An official couldn't wait to know what was going on.

No matter how hard they tried, none of them could see that there was anything wrong with it. However, Yan Xiaoxi was the only one who knew the answer to the riddle.

Yan Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows and shifted her gaze onto the palace maid, saying, "I wonder if everyone knows that the General Liu family will give their children a piece of jade whenever they are born."

Everyone nodded, this matter was no longer a secret in Nanshui Kingdom.

"I wonder, did Miss Liu wear the jade pendant on her body?" Saying so, Yan Xiaoxi looked towards Liu Zhixue's waist. As expected, there was a crystal clear jade pendant hanging there. The color was good, one look was enough to tell that it was priceless.

"The jade pendant is here." Liu Zhixue took the jade pendant off her waist. No matter how reluctant she was, she had no choice under the gaze of everyone.

Yan Xiaoxi took the jade pendant from Liu Zhixue's hand and showed it to everyone. She then pointed at the palace maid again, "Everyone, look over there."

Everyone looked in the direction Yan Xiaoxi pointed. When they saw the palace maid had the same jade pendant as Yu Liu Zhixue, they were all stunned.

The jade pendant that the palace maid wore looked very similar to Liu Zhixue's. Although the details were different, it was still normal.

Every jade pendant of the Liu Family represented a person. It was designed in an original way and looked similar. However, it was deliberately designed to embellish the details. With just a glance, you could tell who owned the jade pendant.

"Why is General Liu's family jade pendant with the palace maid?" This was the doubt in everyone's heart.

However, the answers are often not as complex as we think.

"Don't tell me …" A certain official looked at Liu Zhitian in confusion.

He did not finish what he wanted to say. Although it was just a guess, he could not afford to offend Liu Zhitian.

"That's right. The palace maid is indeed General Liu's daughter." These words shocked everyone present.

Nanshui Kingdom knew that Liu Zhitian only had Liu Zhixue's only daughter.

What was going on?

Was the palace maid really Liu Zhitian's daughter? If not, why was there a jade pendant of the Liu Family?

"Nonsense, this palace maid has nothing to do with this general." Liu Zhitian immediately denied it.

"Yeah, the Liu Family only has one daughter, what does Princess Lin want?" Liu Zhixue looked at Yan Xiaoxi with teary eyes. That pitiful look on her face caused people to feel sorry for her.

"This consort is here to tell you all that she was the one who planned the matter of Miss Liu's poisoning." Every word that came out of Yan Xiaoxi's mouth was shocking.

They had not yet digested the history of the palace maid, and now they were in complete disarray over this matter.

"This matter is very simple. Miss Liu ordered the palace maid to do this in order to frame me. As for why the palace maid helped her, you all saw it just now, because they are half-sisters." Noticing the confusion of the crowd, Yan Xiaoxi came to a conclusion.

"So that's how it is." A certain official was enlightened.

"Everything makes sense." The other foreign minister agreed, nodding his head in agreement to Yan Xiaoxi's words.

"Didn't Princess Lin hear what this general said? The palace maid has nothing to do with our Liu Family. " Liu Zhitian's voice became louder. Anyone could hear the anger in his words.

Yan Xiaoxi didn't seem to be afraid of Liu Zhitian's intimidating aura. She continued calmly, "Then can General Liu explain why the palace maid has the Liu Family's jade pendant on her."

The jade pendant was similar to Liu Zhixue's, both crystal clear and definitely not a fake.

It was Liu Zhitian's first time encountering such a situation, there was actually someone who could force him to this state.

Yan Xiaoxi really couldn't be underestimated. Her performance today had made everyone's eyes shine, shocking everyone present.

However, what kind of big scene hadn't Liu Zhitian seen before? How could he be so easily scared by a girl?

"Xue'er originally had a sister, but she died less than a week ago. This is a family matter, and I don't want to talk about it, nor do I want others to know about it." When he said this, Liu Zhitian's mood was downcast, as if this matter had truly touched on his past.

No matter how strong or firm a man was, they all had a soft and gentle side to them.

"This is a taboo within the Liu Family. No one would dare to bring it up, so outsiders wouldn't know. At that time, father made her a jade pendant, but it was a pity."

Yan Xiaoxi stood to the side with a petrified expression.

The father and daughter duo's acting was really good. Their teamwork was truly flawless.

No wonder Master always said that everyone in the palace wore a fake mask, making it impossible to see through the hearts of others.

"What about the jade pendant?" Nangong Xiao asked.

"Mother was afraid that Father would be hurt, so she decided to just leave it at that." The meaning of this explanation was obvious, the father and daughter pair were just trying to express that she had picked up the jade pendant of the palace maid.

The palace maid was not the daughter of the Liu Family, and Liu Zhixue had nothing to do with it.

Unfortunately, evidence often exists in life.
