Huxin looked at the Vajra Furnace in Xuan Yuan Ling's hands with shining eyes. This Vajra Furnace was a great treasure, one that she had cherished in modern times. What a coincidence to see it here!
Seeing Huxin's gaze fixed on Xuan Yuan Ling and the Vajra Furnace, Jing Yushan felt even more uncomfortable.
He couldn't understand how Huxin had come to know Xuan Yuan Ling. More importantly, the person behind Xuan Yuan Ling... the renowned Gu Family Hong Ye, was he also helping her from behind the scenes today?
"Hey! Empress Dowager, you insisted on having Xia Huxin executed at noon just now. Why are you suddenly silent? Or is it that the Ling Zi Ling in your hand and the Lingyun Token in Prince Ping's hand have collectively turned mute in front of this Vajra Furnace?" Xuan Yuan Ling said with a teasing tone, looking at the Empress Dowager's grim expression, filled with cold sarcasm.
"It is known throughout the world that Great Ancestor created the Lingyun Token and Ling Zi Ling a hundred years ago to benefit the people in times of crisis and to bless future generations. It was not meant for today's sordid affairs. If Great Ancestor were to know of today's disgraceful dealings, he would surely rise from his tomb to settle accounts with you all."
Pfft!
Xuan Yuan Ling's words made Huxin unable to hold back her laughter. The Empress Dowager glared at Huxin with a green face, wishing she could execute her right there in the Imperial Garden.
However, Huxin wore an indifferent smile; since things had developed to this point, what was there for her to worry about or retreat from?
A faint and charming smile appeared on her face, causing Xuan Yuan Ling to gaze at her quietly for a while before coming back to his senses.
It was unclear whether it was his red attire reflecting onto her face or if her beauty was simply captivating.
"What are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong?" Xuan Yuan Ling winked at Huxin, his eyes filled with boundless clarity and rebelliousness.
Huxin shrugged and released his sleeve, wearing a casual expression.
"I was just wondering, where should the hands be when the Great Ancestor jumps out?" Huxin said lightly, her eyes curving into a faint smile. Xuan Yuan Ling's words reminded her of modern zombie movies. He specifically said 'jump out' instead of 'walk out,' which naturally brought to her mind the scene of a zombie with its hands raised in front, hopping along, and even more amusingly, dressed in a dragon robe.
Xuan Yuan Ling looked at Huxin in confusion, feeling that the previous Xia Huxin was becoming more and more distant. Could it be that she was truly heartbroken by Jing Tian'ao, feeling disheartened? If so, then it would be better to let the old Xia Huxin fade away completely!
"Bold! You two," Empress Dowager exclaimed, raising her hand and pointing fiercely at them, her chest heaving violently.
At this moment, Jing Tian'ao narrowed his cold eyes, looking at Huxin with an increasingly icy gaze. A hint of murderous intent gathered in his eyes, ready to eliminate Huxin at any moment!
Just as the atmosphere on site became tense again, a calm and clear male voice suddenly emerged from an unnoticed corner, warm like a spring breeze but carrying the chill of a spring rain that had just stopped.
"Fourth Brother, one should spare others when possible. Moreover, Sister Huxin has been deeply devoted to you all these years. Now that Elder Xia is at home recuperating, as the saying goes, one should consider the face of the Buddha rather than the monk. Given Sister Huxin's feelings over the years, you should return the Lingyun Token, doing a favor for Master Hong and Elder Xia. Furthermore, the eight lives lost on the Liang Family Pleasure Boat are nothing compared to those who have died over the years at the hands of Liang Zhenni Mink. How can you protect one person just because you have known Liang Zhenni for many years? You are now the newly appointed Southern Ping Wang, and you should set a fair example for other princes and nobles instead of using the Lingyun Token to pressure others! You are familiar with the Liang Family, and your childhood friendship with Liang Zhenni is well-known. Therefore, regarding the matter of the eight lives lost on the Liang Family Pleasure Boat, how can you be the one making decisions on this issue?"
