She's already trying to confuse the public and distance herself from Xie Lingyu while he's still in her hands. Does she not want others to know that she and Xie Lingyu are conspiring to commit heinous crimes here?
That's a really nice idea.
With those words, the Prefect of the Capital, having served for half his life and managed to hold the position, was no fool. He naturally understood what was going on, and slightly tilted his head, pretending not to have heard.
He had almost killed the wise king's men, so he was already in the wrong.
“However…” Xie Lingqin suddenly raised her hand and slapped Xie Lingyu’s face hard. “I have always heard that the second young lady of the General’s Mansion is a beauty of unparalleled grace and charm. Today, although her appearance is damaged, it is not a wasted trip. She is as smooth as a peeled egg.”
His casual touch caused everyone to pale.

However, Yuwen Xian has never been controlled by anyone before. Today's events are truly strange, and he must be silenced.
So, just as Xie Lingqin helped Xie Lingyu step out of the door, Yuwen Xian made a signal to someone in the shadows.
