Chapter 418: Imprisoned
Xue Fanxin did not resist. She wanted to see what the Heavenly Saints Emperor wanted to do.
The person who had accused her of privately obtaining the royal mine was undoubtedly Su Baifeng. She really knew how to cause trouble. She had just made a ruckus, and now she was at it again.
Su Baifeng was in the Imperial Palace’s courtyard, drinking tea and playing chess with the Heavenly Saints Emperor. There was also Consort Su waiting on her by the side. The atmosphere was quite good. There was no hostility like a few days ago. The few of them got along well, and they all had faint smiles on their faces.
Consort Su had originally been grounded for two months. She came out before the time was up. Not only that, but she also served the Heavenly Saints Emperor. This was a huge blessing to the concubines in the harem. Looking at the smile on her face, one could tell how happy she was.
The Heavenly Saints Emperor held a white piece and placed it on the chessboard. Then, he looked at Su Baifeng and asked casually, “Are you sure that Ninth Imperial Uncle is really not in Heavenly Saints City?”
!!
“I’m very sure.” Su Baifeng held a black piece in her hand and placed it on the chessboard. She said with a sinister smile, “Your Majesty, you can rest a.s.sured I am speaking the truth. He should have something urgent to do. It’s impossible for him to return in the short term, nor can he return. If Your Majesty wants to get those green crystals back, now is the best chance. Xue Fanxin hasn’t dealt with them yet. They should still be on her. If you hurry, there’s a high chance you will retrieve them.”
Xue Fanxin, oh Xue Fanxin, I want to see how you can escape this calamity. Even if Heavenly Saints Emperor can’t take your life, he can make your days difficult. I’ll do something about it and see how you die.
Xue Fanxin was being escorted to the Ministry of Justice. She was not interrogated but imprisoned. Prime Minister Su happened to be released, and the two of them met.
Prime Minister Su could not help but mock her. “As expected, the tables have turned. Ninth Imperial Consort, it’s time for you to have a good taste of the prison of the Ministry of Justice.”
He had already learned from his daughter that the culprit behind his imprisonment was the Ninth Imperial Consort, who had suddenly become as beautiful as a fairy.
He had not expected the dignified prime minister of the country to fall into the hands of a little girl. He almost lost everything. Now that he was out, he would definitely teach her a lesson.
“I’ve eaten all kinds of food in my life, but I’ve never eaten prison food. This is a good opportunity. But I have a piece of advice for Prime Minister Su. Do you really think leaving this cell will be a good thing?”
“What do you mean?”
“You’ll know it soon. Prime Minister, you’re on your own.” Xue Fanxin walked towards the prison, not influenced at all. She found a place to sit inside.
Prime Minister Su looked at Xue Fanxin’s calm expression and suddenly felt panicked. For some reason, her confidence put him off.
Although his daughter was also outstanding, her temperament was not as good as Xue Fanxin’s. If these two fought, his daughter would most likely be the loser.
No, he could not allow this to happen. He had to get rid of Xue Fanxin as soon as possible.
