The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 1115 - 696: Feng Xiyun Is Completely Suppressed by An Ning (First Update)_2
Xiao Jinxing’s attention was always on An Ning’s injured arm.
At this moment, due to the force of the slap, even more blood seemed to ooze out.
He swallowed hard, trying to ignore it.
It was very clear that An Ning had suffered many grievances along the way, and now, if she doesn’t vent a bit, it’s difficult to extinguish the hatred in her heart.
His eyes suddenly tightened.
A fierce gaze swept over to Feng Xiyun.
He spoke, "The Empress’s words are indeed true."
Feng Xiyun bit her lip hard.
Already being slapped by An Ning was humiliating enough.
But she thought the Emperor might still have some compassion for her. In her current weak and helpless appearance, the Emperor would ultimately feel some sympathy, even if he liked An Ning more. Men have an innate protective desire that would make him unwilling to harm her. She even thought that even if she was publicly slapped by the Empress today, as long as the Emperor said a kind word for her, she could endure it, and could even use it to undermine the Emperor’s affection for the Empress.
But she didn’t expect that the Emperor didn’t fight for her at all, and instead directly stood by the Empress’s side.
Feng Xiyun tried hard to control her emotions, striving not to show the darkness within her heart to anyone.
"It is the fault of this humble servant, and I am willing to accept punishment," Feng Xiyun actively agreed, always maintaining her fragile appearance.
"One slap is certainly far from enough," An Ning said indifferently.
Feng Xiyun’s body trembled slightly.
She couldn’t help but look up at An Ning.
What does this woman want?!
After the slap earlier, her half-face was swollen.
She had been afraid of pain since she was a child.
Being smart and sensible, she was pampered and grew up without suffering much grievance.
If she were to be hit again, she couldn’t bear it.
Feng Xiyun’s eyes turned red, teary-eyed as she looked at Xiao Jinxing, this time her plea for help was obvious.
Clearly, she was somewhat frightened.
An Ning observed Feng Xiyun’s demeanor, not even glancing at Xiao Jinxing’s expression, wondering to what extent he would tolerate her. She coldly said to Feng Xiyun, word for word, "Seeing this palace today and not recognizing it, causing this palace to almost lose her life, is Doctor Feng guilty?!"
"This humble servant was blind and failed to recognize Her Majesty, it’s my fault, I plead guilty," Feng Xiyun could only plead guilty.
"Knowing your own body was unwell yet still came to attend to the Emperor, causing the Emperor’s clothes to get wet, catching a cold, is it guilty?"
"This humble servant is guilty."
"Taking the initiative to seduce the Emperor, is it guilty?"
"This humble servant did not seduce the Emperor..." Feng Xiyun tried to explain.
An Ning gave her a look.
Feng Xiyun dared not say more, but felt extremely aggrieved.
She knew very well that the charge of seducing the Emperor could be big or small, and she absolutely couldn’t admit it.
Feng Xiyun gritted her teeth, lowering her red-rimmed eyes, a maliciousness flickered.
Previously, she mostly thought about how to clear her name for not blocking An Ning from entering the barracks and believed anyone would expose her lie, so even if An Ning met the Emperor alive, although it was upsetting, she wasn’t scared.
And she completely didn’t expect, that An Ning wouldn’t even need to accuse her of blocking the barracks, and could easily pin so many charges on her.
"So, Doctor Feng has no improper thoughts about the Emperor, correct?" An Ning asked her.
Feng Xiyun quickly replied, "This humble servant dares not bear any improper thoughts towards the Emperor. I merely lost my composure due to anxiety today, drawing close to the Emperor, please Her Majesty understand."
Clearly knowing An Ning was deliberately setting a trap for her, but at this moment she could only jump in.
"Since Doctor Feng is so adamantly defending, this palace trusts Doctor Feng and the Emperor’s innocence. Originally, the Emperor has many consorts in the harem; if Doctor Feng truly intended for the Emperor, the Emperor did not reject Doctor Feng’s closeness, this palace might have been inclined to let Doctor Feng enter the harem. But since Doctor Feng has no such intention, this palace is not one to force others."
Listening to An Ning’s seemingly righteous words, Feng Xiyun almost lost her composure.
Fortunately, she wasn’t too foolish, understanding that An Ning was deliberately uttering it in this way.
If she admitted she intended towards the Emperor, it meant admitting she was seducing the Emperor today, other accusations would only lead to punishment, while this accusation could directly lead to her execution!
From childhood to adulthood, though born as a legitimate daughter and pampered by the family, there were many brothers and sisters at home, and there was both open and hidden strife, yet she never suffered grievance, others in front of her, were simply no match.
But today she was so easily thwarted by An Ning.
Leaving her with no way to resist.
