Qi Baixing was so frightened that she jumped up. She never dreamed that the Crown Princess would come. She originally just committed suicide so that the Crown Princess would not dare to make a fuss about the matter again and it would be settled.
But I didn't expect that she would come in person.
She had no choice but to grit her teeth, pull off a piece of white silk and commit suicide again. The palace officials knew in their hearts that she was acting, but they could only persuade her.
When Leng Xiao and A Pei stepped into the hall, they saw Qi Baixing crying hoarsely, holding Bai Ling in his hand, and the people around him persuaded him to kneel on the ground.
Leng Xiao said nothing, walked to the chair and sat down, watching the scene quietly.
Qi Baixing originally thought that when the Crown Princess came in, she would at least try to persuade her, or even curse her, but sitting there quietly with an unclear look on her face made her feel unsure.
Moreover, after crying for so long, my voice became hoarse and I lost my strength. I had to kneel on the ground and crawl to kowtow in front of Leng Xiao. I was so frightened that I couldn't cry anymore. I said in a hoarse voice: "Princess, Princess, I really know that I was wrong, what happened tonight was not what I wanted, it was all arranged by the empress."
Leng Xiao leaned back slightly and put his hand on his abdomen. The abdominal pain was a little obvious. This was because he had been running too fast just now.
She tried to keep her voice as calm as possible to cover up the impatience in her heart, "You insist on dying, I won't stop you. I'll watch from here. I'll ask Ape to collect the body for you. Just go and die."
These words were calm and without a trace of emotion. Hearing this, Qi Baixing became more and more frightened. He quickly kowtowed and apologized, "Crown Princess, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have sought life and death. Crown Princess, please forgive me." "
Leng Xiao's tone was still calm, "If you want to commit suicide, you don't need to apologize to me. It's your own life. As long as you feel it's worthy of your parents, you can die casually. But if you plan to commit suicide to put pressure on me, then There is no need for you, you committed suicide in the palace, and it is your family who will be held accountable, not me."
Qi Baixing felt embarrassed as if she had seen through all her thoughts. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only continue sobbing. She was very panicked and didn't know how the Crown Princess would punish her.
"Miss Qi, I will give you two choices," Leng Xiao looked at her and said in a gentler tone, "You can leave the East Palace and go home. I will give you a sum of money. Now everyone knows that you have not You have been favored by the prince, and you can still get married. If you want, I can also find someone to be your matchmaker and arrange a relatively good marriage. How you live in the future depends entirely on your own destiny."
Qi Baixing was stunned, holding on to his sleeves, and asked almost subconsciously, "What about the second way?"
Leng Xiao straightened up and said in a cold tone: "The second way, you continue to stay in the East Palace. You know very well what kind of life you are living. As long as I am here, you will not be favored by the prince."
Qi Baixing was silent. She was unwilling to leave the East Palace. Although she had offended the Crown Princess and angered His Highness, she still firmly believed that as long as His Highness favored her, he would never be able to leave her again.
She was unwilling to leave before getting this opportunity.
Leng Xiao put his hands on his abdomen, resisting the discomfort, and asked patiently: "How do you choose?"
Qi Baixing searched for the handkerchief and then remembered that it was thrown away in Feixia Palace. He wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and cried loudly, "Crown Princess, if I am abandoned and go home, I will definitely be taken away by my father and brother." I dislike it because it will implicate them and be ridiculed. I don’t want to implicate my family. In addition, my grandmother is old and cannot bear it..."
