Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 615: Are You Worthy of the People of the World?

Bai Junjun also found this seat quite troublesome.

Sitting here meant that whether she ate something or not, she was always under the scrutiny of others.

Of course, what she ate was not important, but she had to be constantly on edge, where was the fun in that?

Bai Junjun planned to discuss with Dian Hong about moving to a seat further back, but Yuwen Luanfei spoke up first.

"I suppose everyone already knows the reason for today’s banquet.

That’s right!

This feast is to welcome the return of Bai Yang’s legitimate daughter, Bai Junjun, who was lost abroad!"

As soon as Yuwen Luanfei’s words fell, a wave of surprise erupted from the ministers, followed by gazes darting towards Bai Junjun like lightning.

At this moment, being the center of attention, Bai Junjun could only dismiss the idea of sneaking away and silently sat down in the front row.

She calmly nodded and greeted everyone, and the ministers began to whisper among themselves.

Yuwen Luanfei did not stop them but waited until the ministers had almost finished their chatter before speaking softly.

"You are all aware of the situation in the Eastern Land, and why the conflict has erupted. But in fact, Junjun did not die in Biluo, and one can only imagine the hidden turmoil behind this fact."

Yuwen Luanfei’s words, like a bomb, once again set the crowd abuzz.

A minister couldn’t help but stand up and bow to Yuwen Luanfei.

"I have a few questions I dare to ask Miss Junjun."

Since the questions were for Bai Junjun, it should have been proper to ask through Bai Junjun, but who could ignore Prince Hanying’s authority?

Therefore, everyone who wanted to inquire about the issue reported directly to Prince Hanying, and after he nodded his approval, Bai Junjun had to comply and answer, otherwise, it was considered defiance of the Emperor’s command.

The minister, holding the Imperial Sword, then leisurely turned towards Bai Junjun.

"Miss Junjun, what exactly happened in Biluo back then?"

Bai Junjun glanced at him and repeated the excuse she had given Prince Hanying before.

"If that’s the case, why didn’t you come forward to clarify immediately, allowing the Ninth Prince to attack?"

This minister seemed to blame her entirely for the chaos in the Eastern Land.

Bai Junjun couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, "How was I supposed to clarify? If I had clarified, would you still be able to see me?"

The minister frowned, "Nonsense, you were just avoiding death, yet it caused the Eastern Land to be engulfed in war again. How do you justify this to the common people?" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Bai Junjun, unangered by his words, only hooked her lips slightly, "Lord speaks so righteously, why don’t you personally go to the Eastern Land to stop the war? You hold your position but let the people be displaced, do you justify this to the common people either?"

"You!" The minister was choked by Bai Junjun’s retort and his face turned red instantly.

He never anticipated that this young girl could argue so cunningly.

At this moment, the Minister of Rites also slowly stood up.

"Lord Ma may be too harsh. Anyone in such a situation would first think to hide, especially being just a young girl."

"Beloved Minister Li is right," Prince Hanying smiled and nodded, "It was right for Junjun to preserve herself wisely. If it weren’t for her risking her life to return to the Imperial Capital to inform us, perhaps we wouldn’t have known Prince Jin’s true character."

Thus, Yuwen Luanfei officially framed Yuwen Jun; whether or not Yuwen Jun spread the false news of Bai Junjun’s death, he was now accountable for it.

The ministers, being astute, changed their tone immediately after Yuwen Luanfei defined the situation, starting to praise Bai Junjun for her intelligence and bravery, able to escape from such chaos and return to inform Yuwen Luanfei, truly a woman who equals any man.
