Oh wow, so that's why things are all messed up?
It turned out that the noble ladies who had provoked her, along with their fathers and brothers, had knelt down together, begging King Chujiang for justice.
This includes the prime minister's daughter, who was sent to heaven by Xiaoxi. Her face turned black; she is now the best example of a black ghost.
I wonder if her butt got smashed? Xiao Xi chuckled as she looked her over.
As soon as she saw Xiaoxi, she was so frightened that she hid behind her father.
Xiaoxi then looked at the other noble ladies who were in a semi-transparent state under the light. They had hugged the trees to cool down, but had gone too far, and were all shivering in a disheveled state.
King Chujiang was clearly in a dilemma. His sister, Xingjun, was too unruly, but on the other side were important officials in the court.
King Chujiang asked in his authoritative voice, "Young lady of the Ye family, did you do all this?"
"Yes, I did it, but they provoked me first, and even after I repeatedly confirmed it, they still went ahead and did it!"
"No, Your Majesty, she is lying; she is utterly vulgar."
“We were playing by the lake when she suddenly rushed out like a savage bandit and attacked us with her magical weapon.”
"She's a complete scoundrel."
Xiaoxi was so angry she almost laughed.
"When you speak, you carefully control your tongue; aren't you afraid of committing the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"Ladies of the Ye family, what evidence do you have to accuse them of deceiving the emperor? Tell me."
That's easy. Xiaoxi was just about to take off her white jade bracelet.
“Your Majesty, I can attest that what the young lady from the Ye family said is true.”
Xiao Xi and Ye Xingxian were both stunned.
The one who came forward to testify was actually Lady Shangyi.
“Your Majesty, I was indeed by the lake when the banquet was about to begin.”
I saw the ladies trying to push the young lady of the Ye family into the water, but she escaped only because she was quick-witted.
Then, the young lady of the Ye family confirmed with the other ladies whether they wanted to provoke her again. The answer was yes, and only then did the young lady of the Ye family take action.
The kneeling official was suddenly filled with anger and fear, his face turning ashen. His daughter had lied.
Prince Li Heng couldn't believe that his mother was going to testify for this wicked woman, who was clearly capable of such heinous acts.
He called out, "Mother."
Madam Shangyi didn't know why she had to testify in Xiaoxi's favor; she attributed it to justice. In reality, it was out of instinct, something she didn't realize.
At that moment, she originally wanted to step forward and stop the noble ladies, but Xiaoxi moved too quickly and had already taken out her Buddhist prayer beads.
Lady Shangyi was also afraid of those Buddhist beads.
At this moment, King Chujiang decided to compromise and ordered the fathers and brothers of the noble ladies to take them back and confine them for six months. Their fathers and brothers were punished for their lax discipline and were fined a year's salary.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yanche turned hostile.
"King Chujiang, it seems you in the underworld have no good end in mind, do you?"
I am a celestial star lord, and this is how you treat your guests when my sister and I come to your underworld?
You dare to bully my sister, the Star Lord's sister? Not only noble ladies, but also members of your royal family.
"Sister, let's go, let's take this to Heaven! This Underworld is a cesspool of chaos; it's time for a change of leadership and a cleanup!"
King Chujiang was terrified. To complain to the Heavenly Court? That would be terrible; his reign as King Yama would be over.
What royal family member? He has no children, so isn't a royal family member just a younger brother?
King Chujiang cast a sharp glare at his younger brother, Li Heng.
Knowing that his scheme had been exposed, Li Heng hung his head and dared not raise it.
"Star Lord, please wait! Everything is negotiable! Star Lord, please calm down! Everything is negotiable!"
