201 Queen’s Reprimand
Nie Yin’s expression changed.
He imdiately bowed to the queen and said, “Please let take a look at the princess so that I can know how she is…”
“She died from being drained of her blood!” The queen gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with tears.
When Nie Yin heard this, his eyes widened in surprise. “Drained of… blood?”
Ever since he found out that Wen Qiong’s natural phoenix essence was fake, he had used the people he had planted in the palace to find out who the true possessor of the natural phoenix essence was.
The fact that Wen Qiong had these characteristics ant that she had co into contact with the possessor of the natural phoenix essence before!
That person was who he wanted to find!
However, to Nie Yin’s surprise, sothing happened to Wen Qiong while he was in Spirit Mountain!
“Then where’s Shen Heng now?” Nie Yin was anxious to know what had happened and couldn’t care less about the queen’s suspicions.
Hatred flashed across the queen’s eyes, then she said, “Shen Heng… was the one who killed the Princess!”
“Impossible!” Nie Yin retorted without hesitation. He didn’t suspect Shen Heng at all.
“What do you an by that?” The queen’s voice instantly rose as she glared at Nie Yin. “Do you think I’ll give a dead person a false accusation?”
“What did you say? Shen Heng is dead?” Nie Yin no longer cared about etiquette at this mont and suddenly took a few steps forward.
However, his body had yet to recover, so he panted and almost staggered to the ground.
The queen looked down at Nie Yin with a gloating expression.
After Nie Yin steadied himself, he panted slightly as he looked at the queen again. “Queen, how did Shen Heng die? Could it be that you killed him?”
“Nie Yin! Don’t think I’m really afraid of you!” The queen imdiately frowned when she heard Nie Yin’s words, and her tone was filled with anger.
“Previously, I listened to you because you said that there was a way to save the Princess!”
“Now that the Princess is dead, do you really think the royal family is still at your rcy?!”
“Shen Heng actually dared to kill the princess of the royal family. Isn’t this cri enough to sentence him to death?”
“Or do you think that since Shen Heng is your man, he can be spared even if he commits a capital cri?”
Nie Yin took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the retort that was about to slip out of his mouth.
He was injured now, so if he wanted to escape unscathed, he could only appease the queen, who was clearly blinded by hatred.
Nie Yin lowered his voice slightly and bowed to the queen. “Queen, since Shen Heng is already dead, I think it’s better for to take a look at the scene first so that I can find the true cause of the princess’s death.”
From Nie Yin’s words, it was obvious that he didn’t believe that Shen Heng had killed the princess.
However, the queen didn’t plan to waste her breath on Nie Yin, so she summoned Yin Ling and asked him to bring Nie Yin to the princess’s palace.
After the princess’s accident, in order to prevent the news from spreading, the queen killed all the palace servants in the princess’s palace. She also ordered a few spellcasters to set up an array outside the princess’s palace to protect the scene.
The queen’s goal wasn’t to give Nie Yin a chance to find out the truth, but to interrogate him!
Now that the princess, Wen Qiong, was dead, other than venting her hatred, the queen also had the intention to take the opportunity to eliminate the Nie family.
The Nie family had always looked down on the imperial family because of their status as the number one family.
Nie Yin had repeatedly offended the queen and the princess.
If she took this opportunity to pin the bla for the princess’s death on the Nie family, she would be able to eliminate the Nie family!
Nie Yin also knew the queen’s plan, but now wasn’t the ti to go against her openly.
Therefore, he had to find out the truth as soon as possible and clear the Nie family’s na!
Nie Yin was led to Wen Qiong’s palace by Yin Ling. After the array was activated, the sll of blood was blocked in the array.
If others didn’t have extrely high cultivation levels, they wouldn’t notice anything amiss when they passed by the palace.
Nie Yin was a little weak to begin with due to his injuries, so he didn’t notice the abnormality in the array formation at all.
However, when the array was removed, the sll of blood almost made Nie Yin faint.
Yin Ling glanced at Nie Yin in disdain before saying, “Young Master Nie, this way please!”
Nie Yin ca back to his senses and followed Yin Ling into the palace.
