Chapter 269
Nangong Mingyue was in pain from being caught, she said "ah" and looked at the prime minister with some grievance.

"Father! Why did you drive me back? I ask His Majesty to let my brother go, I want to save my brother!"

"Don't worry about your brother's affairs, go back quickly, or I will treat you as my daughter without you!"

The Prime Minister lowered his head and threatened fiercely.

Her body trembled slightly and she looked up at him in disbelief.

"Why? Dad, what are you afraid of?"

Why don't you save your brother?Why try so hard to stop her from asking for mercy from His Majesty?Does she want to watch her brother die?

"Don't worry about these things! In short, listen to dad... go back quickly."

The prime minister softened his tone a little.

Listening to the two arguing there for a long time, the civil and military officials were far away and couldn't hear clearly, and I was as curious as a cat scratching.

Ye Baimian stopped the prime minister, and smiled calmly, but there was an undeniable danger in his tone.

"Prime Minister, if you have anything to do, you might as well let her talk about it."

Taking advantage of the moment he was in a daze, Nangong Mingyue shook off the prime minister's hand, and knelt down in front of Ye Baimian again with a plop.

"Your Majesty! My daughter wants to ask Your Majesty one thing!"

"Nangong Mingyue, you..."

The prime minister's face darkened, trying to prevent his majesty from catching a glimpse of his eyes that seemed to be smiling but swallowing the scolding words abruptly.

"You said."

Her tone was gentle.

Perhaps it was the smile on Ye Baimian's face that gave Nangong Mingyue courage, she secretly took a deep breath, and she bowed her head solemnly.

"I would like to ask Your Majesty to release Nangong Chuchen and my brother."

This sentence was spoken very clearly, not only Ye Baimian and the dark-faced prime minister, but even the civil and military officials next to him could hear it clearly.

The expressions on their faces suddenly became a little subtle, and they looked at the Prime Minister with vague eyes.

Didn't the prime minister tell his daughter?
Assassinating His Majesty is a capital crime, this Nangong Mingyue actually dared to intercede, she didn't know whether to say that she was kind and righteous, or laugh at her for being stupid and ignorant.

After Nangong Mingyue finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, so quiet that even the surrounding wind could be heard clearly.

Nangong Mingyue pursed her lips, her scalp numb.

Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?
Is it because... did she say something wrong?

A smart person should keep silent at this time and stop talking about this topic, but thinking of her elder brother in a miserable situation in the prison, Nangong Mingyue gritted her teeth and had no choice but to persevere.

"Please Your Majesty... let Nangong Chuchen go."

She kowtowed again, this time a little harder, with a heavy muffled sound.When she raised her head, Nangong Mingyue felt a little dizzy.

Ye Baimian raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, looking down at Nangong Mingyue who was kneeling on the ground.

She spoke slowly and asked:
"Do you know what crime Nangong Chuchen committed?"

"The servant girl doesn't know."

Nangong Mingyue shook her head honestly, with doubts in her eyes.

This is what surprised her the most. No matter what she asked, her father refused to answer, and in the end he put her under house arrest.

"Okay, then let me tell you what he did. He wanted my life and entered the palace to assassinate me. Is this enough reason?"

The smile on her lips gradually faded away, and her dark eyes were filled with coldness.

The crime of assassinating the current emperor is enough to kill Nangong Chuchen.

Not punishing the three clans is considered a boon.

"what?"

Brother to assassinate His Majesty?

This - how is it possible!
 Good night, refill
