Nie Qixing did not expect that the matter had already reached the ears of those old fellows in the Privy Council. His expression changed slightly, as if he was swayed.
Shadow hurried to persuade him. "Young Master Qi, don't be willful! The Empress has been worried about you lately. Don't make her angry again."
Nie Qixing looked at the graceful and noble person sitting on the sofa. Even though she was old, she still had an unattainable noble aura that made people yearn for her.
His eyes dimmed. Under Shadow's expectant gaze, he shook his head and said with a pale face, "I don't know who you're talking about."
—I don't know!
At this moment, he still said that he did not know!
Nie Qingru shut her eyes tightly as if extremely disappointed in him. She did not want to give him another chance, so she ordered in a low voice, "Beat him up!"
"Empress…" This time, even Shadow could not stop her.
