The crisis is half resolved.

When Xiao Yuanshuang arrived at Murong Yue's place, everyone noticed that Xiao Yuanshuang, who usually dressed simply but was always adorned with jewels, seemed much less radiant today.

The maidservant beside her was dressed in clothes similar to Xiao Yuanshuang's.

She had a lot more head ornaments than before.

Li Xuanji glanced at the two of them indifferently, and understood.

They just resort to these little tricks.

Xiao Yuanshuang bowed to Murong Yue, and seeing that the other was sitting there unharmed, she felt a sense of relief.

Fortunately, the empress was unharmed, and she still has a chance to turn the tables and escape.

Murong Anle didn't beat around the bush and started politely.

"Thank you for your hard work, Third Princess. We arrested several prisoners today, but they all insist that they were acting on your orders."

"In order to clear the Third Princess's name, could you please explain?"

Only Murong Anle could make an interrogation sound so appealing.

Xiao Yuanshuang bowed slightly to him, "I have also heard about what happened today. Fortunately, Your Majesty is unharmed."

"But I never expected that someone would try to smear me."

"I have never seen this person before, Lord Murong. May I have them confront him on the spot?"

Murong Anle looked at Murong Yue.

Murong Yue nodded.

She was also eager to see how Xiao Yuanshuang would handle the current crisis. Would she still be as cunning as before?

"However, Your Highness has a request."

"Please speak freely, Third Princess."

"Please refrain from speaking for a moment, gentlemen, while I, Your Highness, conduct the questioning."

Xiao Yuanshuang put forward her demands.

Those present were all shrewd old foxes. Seeing Xiao Yuanshuang and her maid's attire, and combining that with her demands, they knew what was going on.

They didn't want to wrong the Yue princess either.

If she really did it, it would be difficult to handle.

We can't just kidnap the princess, can we?

Soon, the three prisoners were brought in.

Their testimonies were the most complete, and they swore they had seen the Third Princess's maid.
