566 Abuse the Scum (Third Update)

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyebrows furrowed.

Princess Ning An continued, "I'm not doubting Minister Xiao in the least, but, since mother has such a deep relationship with Minister Xiao, could it be possible that..."

The light in Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes abruptly darkened, "Could it be what? Are you suspecting that Xiao Liulang is related to the assassination attempt on His Majesty, or are you suspecting that Xiao Liulang is harboring the Dowager Empress?"

A trace of astonishment flashed across Princess Ning An's eyes.

All the fondness Empress Dowager Xiao had accumulated for Princess Ning An over the past few days dissipated, "Xiao Liulang is the top scholar personally elevated by His Majesty himself; his loyalty to His Majesty is absolute. It is impossible for him to collude with the Dowager Empress to harm His Majesty!"

What a joke?

His Majesty is Ahen's blood uncle!

Ahen would never harm His Majesty!
