Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort Chapter 430

"Why can't I prove it?" This painting is not yours at all, Fourth Princess, because when I was appraising it, I touched the oil on top of the painting, but there's nothing on this painting! " Wei Yuanwei said sincerely.

This was the reason why she was so sure when she saw the painting that it was not the painting she was admiring just now.

The fourth w.a.n.gfei's face stiffened before she continued, "You're simply spouting nonsense. Don't even think about deceiving the empress!"

"I was lying to Your Majesty? You must be intentionally lying to me, right? I can swear that fake is still in this Ten Thousand Flowers House. As long as the emperor orders a search, that painting will definitely be searched! " Wei Yuanwei's sharp eyes lightly swept across the Fourth Princess's stiff face.

The Fourth Princess was just a partic.i.p.ant in a conspiracy, the real mastermind was someone else.

Wei Yuanwei's sharp and cold eyes swept towards the Queen. His clear and elegant eyes were sparkling and translucent, like the black pearl of a priceless treasure.

The Empress could sense that Wei Yuanwei was currently looking at his with a dark and unfathomable gaze. Although Wei Yuanwei's gaze seemed to be so dull and ordinary, it actually caused her to feel a chill from the bottom of her heart, scuttling all the way from his feet to her entire body.

Suddenly, Wei Yuanwei's elegant and clear eyes s.h.i.+fted from the empress's face to the beautiful and n.o.ble pills on his hands, and his lightly pursed lips drew back to form an extremely charming arc.

For some reason, the empress felt as if her hands were being torn apart by an ant under Wei Yuanwei's gaze, the pain she felt was unbearable.

Hearing Wei Yuanwei's words, the Fourth Princess's expression changed, but quickly returned to normal.

"Wei Yuanwei, are you really so sure that the painting is inside the Ten Thousand Flowers House?" The empress's cold voice came out one word at a time.

At this moment, the oppressive atmosphere seemed to have risen to a new level.

Everyone did not even dare to breathe loudly, their eyes fixated on Wei Yuanwei's body, waiting to see how she would answer.

"Yes, I think the person who really took that painting away probably hasn't come to take it out of the Ten Thousand Flowers House yet!" Wei Yuanwei raised the corner of his mouth as he smiled, his smile was like a blooming lotus flower in a lotus pond, clear and moving.

"Wei Yuanwei, do you mean to say that you still refuse to admit that you took the painting?" The Queen seemed to want to pin this crime on Wei Yuanwei.

"I didn't take this painting, so why should I admit to it?" Wei Yuanwei laughed instead of getting angry.

"Alright, if I can find this painting in the Ten Thousand Flowers House, I will let bygones be bygones. If I can't find it …"

"I will admit to all the crimes!" Wei Yuanwei answered exceptionally relaxed.

Facing Wei Yuanwei's reply, Zhong Lixian was a little worried. Walking in front of Wei Yuanwei, she lowered her voice and said: "Do you have that much confidence?"

There were many distinguished officials and n.o.bles in the Ten Thousand Flowers House, as well as many palace maids and eunuchs. Even including the guards, there were at least two to three hundred people in the Ten Thousand Flowers House.

According to what Wei Yuanwei said, if they were to search, how could it be easy?

And who knew if the person who took the painting away would immediately move it out of the Ten Thousand Flowers House after Wei Yuanwei finished her words.

"I'm betting. If I win, the empress will lose. If I lose …" Wei Yuanwei replied with a voice as loud as a mosquito's.

"You will die!" Zhong Lixian said with incomparable seriousness.

"That depends on what the Crown Prince says. If Xie w.a.n.g comes, I won't die!" Wei Yuanwei smiled at Zhong Lixian, and said indifferently.

Zhong Lixian's eyes quickly darkened. Wei Yuanwei really knew how to scheme, she didn't forget to scheme against him even at this time.

"Regardless of whether I win or lose, I still have to leave the palace, right?" Wei Yuanwei smiled.

Zhong Lixian's face turned even more gloomy, regardless of whether she won or lost, Wei Yuanwei was still the biggest winner.

However... Wei Yuanwei, I will not let you return to Mu Jin's side.

Hearing Wei Yuanwei's words, the Empress's lips curved up in a cold smile. Wei Yuanwei, are you waiting for death?

"Your Majesty, since Wei Yuanwei has said so, may I ask your majesty to give the order for the guards to come in and search? Moreover, during this period of time, no one is allowed to enter or exit the Ten Thousand Flowers House! " The Queen raised her eyebrows as a strong killing intent surged out from between her eyebrows.

After hearing the empress's suggestion, the emperor looked at the controversial map of the east slope on the table, thought for a while and said, "Fine, then we'll do as empress says!"

This matter became more and more complicated as time went on. Only by finding the original map of the eastern slope would he be able to figure out what was going on.

"The emperor only needs to search the inner rooms of the Ten Thousand Flowers House!" Wei Yuanwei said at this time.

Zhong Lixian suddenly grabbed Wei Yuanwei's hand, preparing to stop Wei Yuanwei from speaking any further.

But it was too late.

The reason Wei Yuanwei said this, was obviously because she wanted to cut off his escape route and also her escape route.

"Are you betting on how important you are in my heart?" Zhong Lixian pinched Wei Yuanwei's arm, and almost broke Wei Yuanwei's arm.

Wei Yuanwei glanced at Zhong Lixian. Zhong Lixian had never lost her composure like this before, she was now like a furious lion.

"I'm telling you, even if you really want to die, I won't notify Xie w.a.n.g to save you!" Zhong Lixian clenched his teeth, and his eyes became bloodshot.

"Alright, then let the guards outside come in and search!" When the Queen heard Wei Yuanwei's reply, her eyes were filled with a victorious smile.

The veins on Zhong Lixian's forehead were about to bulge out, and just like that, she grabbed onto Wei Yuanwei's arm, wis.h.i.+ng that she could immediately pull him away.

Facing Zhong Lixian's bloodshot eyes, Wei Yuanwei's eyes seemed to be extremely pure and bright.

When the guards came in and searched the corners of the main hall, even the crack of the door, the eaves, the chairs, and the carpet on the ground were carefully searched. However, there was not a single trace of the east slope.

The empress looked as if victory was within her grasp.

Zhong Lixian's body became even colder, as though she had fallen into an ice cellar for a thousand years. Even the hairs on her body began to emit a thick chill.

"Wei Yuanwei, what do you have to say for yourself?" The emperor looked down at Wei Yuanwei from above as if he was looking at an ant, his eyes filled with contempt.

Wei Yuanwei's indifferent gaze swept past Zhong Lixian and landed on Little Yun Zi's body. Little Yun Zi discovered that Wei Yuanwei was looking at her, so she lowered her head and gave Wei Yuanwei a bright smile, like a willow flower blooming in the third month. That smile seemed to contain the entire spring.

"There's still one more place we haven't searched?" Wei Yuanwei raised her eyebrows.
