The hall fell silent in an instant.
In the silence, Wen Qin's soft sobs were particularly distinct.
Anger flashed across the Emperor's face, and he looked as though he was on the verge of an outburst.
Bai Xin, who had been silent all this time, rose from her seat.
Bai Xin looked at Wen Qin and asked,
"Are you talking about that vicious woman in red, the one who was hung up at the Royal Hunting Ground?"
Wen Qin's eyes were red.
"How dare you insult my royal sister like that?"
Bai Xin sneered.
"How did I insult her? She ambushed me at the Royal Hunting Ground and tried to kill me. What's wrong with stringing her up for a day? I still want her dead!"
Bai Xin was used to acting with impunity. As the sole heir of the Bai Family, she could raise hell and do as she pleased, and no one could control her, so long as she didn't cross a major line.
Her blunt words left Wen Qin stunned speechless.
