Leonard did not believe a word she said, not one bit.
It was just that he was on the Empress's side.
Therefore, regardless of whether he believed it or not, he had to stand on Ji Ziyin's side and clean up her mess for her. "You've implicated the Empress this time."
Ji Ziyin's face turned pale for a moment. She pinched the skin on her palm and lowered her head slightly. Looking at her toes, she apologized in a voice as soft as a mosquito's footsteps. "I'm sorry."
She did not really think saying "sorry" was useful, did she?
Leonard looked at her with disdain and almost mocked her, but he held it in and walked to the window with a wave of his hand. "Now that things have come to this, this matter is no longer yours alone. Whether you enter the Privy Council or not is already tied to the Empress's face. I will try my best to ensure that you enter! Think about it carefully. Do you have anything on the other party?"
