After Xie finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and Ming Beiya and Xie's gazes immediately fell on Mo Shisheng's fingers.
But no further signs of movement were observed from her.
Ming Beiya's dark eyes dimmed slightly, and the luster gradually diminished.
"Perhaps Sheng Sheng hasn't heard the parts that will trigger her memory yet. If I continue, she might react."
Xie Xin felt a moment of disappointment, but only for a moment. He quickly recovered and said this to Ming Beiya before continuing his sermon.

"..."
Even though many people knew about the current state of Qi Kingdom, and Situ Xue often came to ridicule her, it was never as shocking as Mo Shisheng's words.
Encircled by three kingdoms...
"Why……"
Qi Muxiao almost lost her voice, her hands gripping Mo Shisheng's arms tightly. "Why? Why is this happening? Haven't I already married into this family?"
"Benefit."
Mo Shisheng only said those two words, and as intelligent as Qi Muxiao was, she couldn't possibly not understand.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Muxiao abruptly released Mo Shisheng, tears streaming down her face again as she wiped them clean. Even quieter than her previous soft sobs, she stared blankly at Mo Shisheng, letting the tears flow freely.
Mo Shisheng glanced at Qi Muxiao, then reached out and pulled her into his arms, whispering, "Qi Muxiao, don't try to offend Nan Chen. It won't do you any good. The only thing you can do is win Nan Xiao's heart."
She never told Qi Muxiao about Nan Chen's identity, because it was a secret of the Southern Kingdom, and it was safer for Qi Muxiao not to know.
The fact that Qi Muxiao is living well in this world means that Nan Xiao has protected her very well.
As for why she would protect Qi Muxiao, that's not something she needs to worry about.
After speaking, Mo Shisheng stood up, took out a bottle of ointment from her storage ring, and placed it in Qi Muxiao's palm. "After you've finished crying, you should be strong. This is to reduce swelling. After you take a shower, wipe your eyes with it."
As Mo Shisheng stepped out of the palace, Shaoyao was still pacing anxiously. Upon seeing her, she rushed forward joyfully, "Miss Mo, my lady..."
"Prepare some food and take it in. I'm leaving now."
Mo Shisheng paused for a moment, gave an instruction, and then left.
Peony wanted to say something to express her gratitude, but she found that Mo Shisheng had already turned and left.
Watching Mo Shisheng's departing figure, she couldn't help but feel a desire to grovel... Her aura was so powerful that even without her cultivation, she still exuded the domineering presence of a high and mighty empress.
Only after Mo Shisheng's figure completely disappeared from sight did Shaoyao suddenly come to her senses and walk towards the palace.
Qi Muxiao was still sitting on the bed, hugging her knees with both hands, seemingly lost in thought.
Seeing this, Peony stepped forward and was about to speak when she heard Qi Muxiao say in a low voice, "Prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."
"Your Majesty...why don't you want to eat something first?"
"Prepare hot water."
Qi Muxiao's attitude was firm.

On the way back, the guard whispered, "Miss Mo would be best not to get too close to the people from the Eastern Palace."
Oh.
Mo Shisheng sneered, glancing at the guard with her cold eyes before looking away.
Although Mo Shisheng didn't say a word, the guards could still sense the murderous intent emanating from her eyes.
It felt like someone was choking me.
Situ Xue happened to be walking from her palace at that moment, and the two met just before exiting the East Palace gate.
