Chapter 370 - 370 369 Youve been wronged (first update)
?Chapter 370: 369 You’ve been wronged (first update) Chapter 370: 369 You’ve been wronged (first update) Li Xianyun’s words gradually calmed the crowd of onlookers. They didn’t trust Li Xianyun and had doubts about the maid, but their Khan was a towering hero of integrity and decisiveness—how could he be someone who confuses right with wrong?
Besides, since Princess Hehui had been married off to the Khitan, apart from the Khan’s extreme favoritism, she hadn’t done anything to harm the nation.
Moreover, Li Xianyun’s harmless appearance was pleasing to the eye. An attractive person always manages to easily evoke warmth in others, gains trust, and receives forgiveness.
The maid hastily cried out, “My lady, Kunlun Mountains are a harsh and cold place where not even birds bother to land. If my mistress were sent there, she would surely never return. Please consider the fact that though my mistress has not contributed much to the Imperial Court, she has indeed suffered for it. Let the Khan be lenient.”
Li Xianyun said emotionlessly, “Attempting to assassinate a member of the royal family is a grave offense punishable by the extermination of nine familial generations. Now the Khan has refrained from implicating the Nanwang Mansion and has even spared your mistress’s life. That is already a considerable act of mercy. Do not let your actions cause the loss of this grace.”
“Is the princess trying to threaten a mere servant?” the maid countered. “It’s true, as a Han, you must relish seeing the Khitan embroiled in internal strife. A loss for the Khitan, a loss of a good general, does indeed weaken them and is advantageous for both the Houliang and Houtang.”
Such words were blatantly seditious.
This maid was quite eloquent, no wonder Ji Xueyuan had chosen her for this task.
Li Xianyun’s voice grew colder.
“The nation has its laws, and the family has its rules. Your mistress sending someone to assassinate a member of the royal family is an enormous crime. Yet, she shows no remorse and sends you to cause trouble in the streets, repaying kindness with hatred. Is this the behavior of a good general who puts her family and country first?”
