him. "Housekeeper, have I given you too much face these years Now you even dare to interfere with my decisions"The steward sighed inwardly and immediately knelt down, “My Lady, please reconsider. I t...At this moment, Li Ge's face was as pale as paper. He pointed at the boy and roared, "Shut up! Shut your mouth! What are you talking about If you say another word, I swear I'll kill you!"

Hearing Li Ge'er's sinister words, the boy's mother immediately pointed at Li Ge'er:

"Oh heavens, look, all of you, right here in front of everyone he dares to threaten me, saying he'll kill my son! I say it was you who poisoned Mingge! Look at Liuge, his appearance, so cruel. How can we not believe that Mingge was killed by him"

She didn't know what role her own son played in this matter, but right now if she could get Li Ge to take on all the blame, then her son should be safe.

After all, Ming'er's father holds a higher official position than her family head. Even if Ming'er doesn't face any life-threatening danger, what if Ming'er's family blames them Her family head's career would be ruined!

So now, I wish everyone would think this whole thing was just Little Chestnut's doing.

Li Ge saw that everyone misunderstood him, his face contorted with anger. He roared angrily at this moment:

"No, it wasn't me! I told you, it wasn't me! I didn't poison him! Yes, that's right! I just dislike Mingge, I hate him."

"I hate how the masters at school always praise him for being smart, I hate his always self-righteous face, but I really didn't poison him!"

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes and snorted coldly, "So how are you going to prove yourself Evidence is always needed at any time. Words without proof mean nothing, so how do you plan to explain yourself"

"I..."

Li Ge wanted to blurt something out, but he didn't know what came to mind. Now he quickly shut his mouth!

His gaze turned towards the mountain path, seeing nothing but emptiness there. His heart sank, filled with a profound sense of loss.

But he couldn't say anything about it right now.

An Xue Tang watched his every move, seeing him forcefully swallow his words. Her brow twitched imperceptibly as she met Mo Yun Jing's gaze.

Both knew there was something fishy about this, but it seemed like she wouldn't get the truth out of this Li without using some tricks.

With that thought, a slight smile appeared in An Xue Tang's eyes. She looked at Eleven and calmly said:

“Eleven, Little Brother Li is cruel and vicious at such a young age. He poisoned his good friend and even attempted to assassinate the King and Queen of Beijiang. His crimes are heinous, deserving of death! This concubine commands you, immediately behead him and throw his body into the mountains to feed the beasts.”

"!!"

An Xuetang's words caused the faces of those ladies, misses, and children to change drastically.

For a moment, they couldn't react. What did they hear The King of Beijang The Princess of Beijang

This woman calls herself "this noble consort," could she be the Princess of the Northern Border

The first to react was the mother of Little Li, Jia Shi. When she finally came to her senses, her whole body trembled violently. Her appearance terrified the maidservants beside her so much that they nearly fainted.

The maid knelt beside her, supporting her with concern. "Madam, Madam, what's wrong Why are you trembling so"

How could Mrs. Jia not tremble She pushed the maidservant away and repeatedly kowtowed to Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang:

"This servant woman deserves death, this servant woman is guilty of ten thousand deaths. This servant woman did not know that the King and Queen of Beijiang were here, and she has committed many offenses. Please forgive her sins, Your Majesty the King and Your Majesty the Queen!"

Jia was so frightened that her eyes were filled with tears, and she trembled all over. Even her voice was shaky, showing just how terrified she was at this moment.

Hearing Jia's words, everyone except the monks were shocked and speechless.

At this time, Master Jianzhen and the others also bowed to Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang.

Since Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang did not reveal their identities before, they could act without ceremony. Now that An Xuetang has revealed her identity, they must bow to the two of them.

Having seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears these monks bowing to Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang, the group finally believed that the people before them were truly the King and Queen of Beijang.

Though they were the wives of officials, they held no significant rank and thus would have had no opportunity to meet King Beijiang. It stands to reason that they wouldn't know him.

At this moment, they all knelt down and paid their respects. An Xuetang waved her hand, "All of you, rise. This concubine has already wasted too much energy on you. Right now, it's time to handle things."

Having said that, she turned her head to look at Li Ge'er, who was already dumbfounded. He was still kneeling on the ground, staring blankly at An Xue Tang, wondering what he was thinking.

"Brother Li, this is my last question to you. Why did you bring these people here Who told you that there are people living in this courtyard"

When Little Li was called out, he came to his senses. He pursed his lips, glanced at his mother, and stubbornly lowered his head again. This clearly meant he was going to stand his ground no matter what

Li Ge still kept his head down, unwilling to speak.

An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, it seems the person behind this is quite capable, able to make Li Ge so tight-lipped.

But... she, An Xue Tang, didn't believe it. Before life and death, he would truly be able to keep his mouth shut.

Her eyes were dark and cold, and she suddenly said coldly, "Eleven, since he doesn't speak, it means everything this concubine said just now is true. He not only poisoned his friends but also tried to poison the Northern Border King and this concubine. This concubine now orders you to immediately behead him."

As soon as An Xuetang finished speaking, Eleven instantly drew the sword from her waist. "Yes."

Eleven's movements were too fast. Before anyone could react, his sharp sword was already at Li Ge'er's throat. Li Ge'er was only a child of about ten years old. Feeling Eleven's murderous aura, he was instantly terrified and wet himself.

"Crying and screaming, "I'll tell, I'll tell! Please don't kill me!"

Finally, An Xuetang bet right, he is afraid of death!

Li Ge'er cried and told the whole story. He admitted that he had led his friends here, and the story about a treasure in the courtyard was made up by him.

This morning, the young lady Xi Zi Li from the Third Princess's residence came to him. Xi Zi Li said she had been bullied and if he could help her out, in the future he would not have to take the exam for an official position himself, Xi Zi Li would ask the Emperor to grant him a position.

That means that even if he fails to beat Ming Ge'er in the exams, his official position will still be higher than Ming Ge'er's, and Ming Ge'er will never be able to surpass him again.

Who doesn't know that Xi Zi Li is the most beloved princess by the current emperor Therefore, Li Ge er thinks that Xi Zi Li's promise must be true.

Moreover, Xi Zi Li only asked him to bring people over to make a scene and didn't need him to do anything. He thought it was easy, so he didn't even bother to find out who lived there.

If he had known that the King and Queen of Beijiang lived here, he would never have brought people here!

And, why Mingger would be poisoned, he truly didn't know. Why Xizi Li made him come to cause trouble, he didn't know either.ang felt an even more intense pain than usual. She bit her lower lip, her brows furrowed tightly together, her nostrils flared with each quick gasp of breath. Her hands clutched the new pillow that Sh...
