Chapter 1671: Failure's End

n, An Xuetang's brows furrowed. "It's simply ridiculous, Ajing. I've told you before, blood kinship recognition is completely unreliable and has no credibility whatsoever. There's no scientific basis...Facing her threat, Xizi Panger only sneered at this moment, "You guess... will your mother believe that everything just now was done by me"

Hm.

Xizi Ke'er's face darkened.

She certainly knew that her mother-in-law wasn't incapable of believing, but unwilling to.

She knew very well her current situation. No matter what she did, her mother wouldn't believe her again. She would rather believe Xizi Pan'er, that heartless beast, than her.

Xizi Panger, in order to seize the throne and become the crown prince, she spared no effort to kill her elder sisters. Now, she is finally going to make a move against them.

Unfortunately, she had been prepared for this. No matter how many schemes Xizi and Pan'er came up with over the past few months, none of them worked.

So, Xizi Panger then used this opportunity of the male consort to leverage her mother's authority and force her to relinquish power.

When she had nothing left, he thought it would be easy to take advantage of her.

But pity, Xizi Ke'er is not someone who falls so easily. Today, let's see who wins and who loses.

At this point, she didn't continue arguing with Xizi and Panger. The two of them silently followed the Empress and walked directly onto the city wall.

Looking down from the palace walls, one could indeed see a throng of people.

Just as the eunuch who relayed the message said, there were indeed a large number of people gathered outside the palace gate, kneeling there.

When someone shouted, “The Emperor has arrived!”, the people began to clamor, one by one shouting: "The little princess is innocent!"

The Empress's cold eyes stared out at the throng of people gathered outside the palace. She listened to their shouts.

Her sharp eyes narrowed slightly, as if thinking of something, and she suddenly turned her head to glance at Xizi Ke'er, gritting her teeth, "You really are quite capable."

Xizi Ke'er feigned ignorance, pretending not to know the meaning of her words. At that moment, she took two steps back, knelt down, and bowed, saying:

"Your Majesty, the person I killed today is by no means innocent. He disregarded royal law, slaughtered innocents, and plundered young women from the city at will."

In this capital city, there have been dozens of young women abducted by him without reason, all dying at his hands. This beast who kills without batting an eye deserves to be executed immediately.

As if she had just remembered, she continued, “If Your Majesty doesn’t believe my word, you may summon the Minister of Justice for questioning.”

She then cast a thoughtful glance at Xizi and Pan'er, "Today, the Minister of Dali Temple and I are going together to apprehend the criminals. If the imperial sister wants to put this blame on me, I absolutely cannot tolerate it."

"!"

Who is the Empress She has eyes everywhere in this city, it's easy for her to know anything.

Xi Zi Ke'er and Xi Zi Pan'er, two sisters, had a public brawl. She of course already knew the ins and outs of the situation.

But compared to what Xizi Panger had done, these were trivial matters in her eyes. Xizi Panger had merely sheltered a scoundrel.

But Xi Zi Ke Er is different. Xi Zi Ke Er has been in the limelight recently, and the people of the city are increasingly convinced by her.

It turns out she was in contact with the Princess of Beijang, and that princess even sent her some so-called secret weapons.

Although Xizi Ke'er tried her best to conceal it, this was the capital city, her territory. No matter who intentionally concealed something, as long as she was willing to spend time investigating the truth, nothing could escape her grasp.

So she knew about all the communication between Xi Zi Ke'er and the princess of Beijang.

As a ruler of a nation, she was well aware of the power of the secret weapon held by the Princess of Beijang. If Xi Zi'er and that Princess of Beijang were to become too close, and develop improper thoughts, there could be a rebellion or a coup.

Even this queen could not stop it.

So, now Xizi Ke'er is no longer her most beloved youngest daughter, but a threat to her throne. As the monarch of a nation, she certainly cannot tolerate such a person continuing to act recklessly under her nose.

So although I know what happened today, the reason behind it is still unclear, and I'm also certain that Xizi Ke'er did nothing wrong in this.

That murderous wretch deserved death, but she needed a reason for Lacy to take her down.

Now, Xi Zi Ke'er is deeply loved by the people. If she were to deal with Xi Zi Ke'er without a just reason, it would only make the people look down on her as their sovereign.

That's why I've been making trouble for Xizi Ke'er everywhere today, trying to frame her with all sorts of charges. The reason I'm focusing on this trivial matter of disrespect towards Xizi Pan'er is to directly seize control of her military power and confine her to the Princess Mansion.

But she did not expect the city's people to arrive so quickly.

As a sovereign who had reigned for many years, she naturally didn't believe that the people from outside the palace appearing here at this moment was a coincidence.

It seems she once again underestimated Xizi Ke'er's capabilities.

At that thought, the Empress' sharp eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of killing intent lurking within them. She stared meaningfully at Xizi Ke'er, who was kneeling on the ground yet stood with her back straight.

Her youngest daughter, for some unknown reason and at some point in time, had already stopped showing her emotions. Especially now faced with such a situation, the slightest carelessness could lead to utter ruin.

But she seemed still very calm, with an indescribable air of nobility and dignity in her every gesture.

She remembered a minister saying not long ago that Xizi was like an emperor ruling over the heavens. The natural aura she exuded, though gentle, possessed a dignified and noble air that one could not resist.

Looking at Xizi Ke'er, who bore the air of a king, the Empress grew increasingly wary. Her eyes turned darker and colder, filled with a ruthless, swift-killing intent, as if she had made up her mind to dispose of Xizi Ke'er sooner rather than later.

But today, with the help of these common people outside the palace, it seems she won't have a chance to do anything to Xizi Ke'er.

After all, if this matter is not handled well, it will only lose the hearts of the people, which is not what she wants.

Thus, at that moment, her deep eyes turned colder once more, shifting their gaze to Xi Zi P'er standing beside her.

At just a glance, Xizi knew that she was going to be in trouble today.

Her body immediately tensed, and before she could even do anything, before she could kneel down to beg for forgiveness, the Empress was already completely enraged. She raised her hand, and with a slap, she struck her face hard.

This slap was so forceful that Xizi's face ached almost to numbness, and a trickle of blood slowly oozed from the corner of her mouth. Her ears buzzed incessantly.

All the soldiers on the city wall almost all looked at her, but after a moment of fear they were afraid of being remembered by her and quickly lowered their heads.

Xizi Ke'er, on the other hand, stared at her with a gaze as if watching a play, her eyes seeming to mock her schemes for the day having ultimately failed.ind their own business.After changing the dressing for Mo Yunchen, An Xuetang was about to leave when Mo Yunchen suddenly said, "A-Jing won't be back tonight.
