Yan Ling looked at Snow Cherry who still did not understand where he went wrong, and slowly said, "Even if I remember wrongly, I believe everyone here has seen it. Bai Yiyi had not said a word since she was rescued. "May I ask how Miss Bai heard your sister say these words?"

After listening to these words, Snow Cherry immediately saw the doubtful look in the surrounding people's eyes, and immediately knew that the situation was not good. This was what he had originally thought of as an excuse. He had accidentally said it out loud, but he had forgotten to consider the current situation.

Thinking of this, Snow Cherry couldn't help but gnash her teeth, and she started to loathe Bai Yiyi more. She was angry because this person had clearly told her about it, but in the end, he didn't follow her plan.

According to their original plan, it should have been Bai Yiyi arguing with Yan Ling, before Bai Yiyi "accidentally" falling into the lake and telling everyone that it was Yan Ling who pushed her into the lake.

However, Snow Cherry, who had been hiding nearby, knew that Bai Yiyi's fall into the lake was not according to her original plan. Even though the result was the same, it seemed that the effect was much worse.

"I was just in a hurry and guessed it!" Snow Cherry was already in a hurry and tried to defend herself.

"Then you really know telepathy. You can even guess it just because of the Crown Prince." Before Yan Ling could speak, Princess Zhao Yan spoke with undisguised mockery.

"Princess, this is a matter between our Bai Clan and the Prime Minister's Estate. Princess, it's better if you don't join in."

At this moment, Bai Fei Fei's complexion was already somewhat unsightly. It wasn't that she couldn't hear the whispers of the surrounding people, but she forcefully suppressed her displeasure and spoke to Princess Zhao Yan.

Princess Zhaoyan hated Bai Fei Fei's behavior the most. Although she appeared arrogant on the surface, she was actually calculating something in her heart. She immediately stroked her chin with a cold smile, as if she was deep in thought.

"Is that really the case? "I'm not sure about that. There was a small conflict between the daughters of the two families, but it could actually involve a matter between the two families. The young miss of the Bai family has always distinguished between kindness and hatred!" Princess Guangyan said with a smile.

Princess Yaoyan had never been a good-natured person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been called arrogant and despotic by the people of the capital.

Princess Guangyan had always been like this. As long as it was someone she thought highly of, she would naturally help. It was precisely because of this that the threatening words that Bai Fei Fei had spoken earlier were nothing in Princess Zhao Yan's eyes.

Bai Fei Fei had always known that this Princess Zhao Yan was unreasonable and that she had always disliked her. Now that she had interfered in a good matter and caused it to turn into this state, her blood boiled even more.

The few of them were at loggerheads, while Bai Yiyi, who was supposed to be the 'victim', was ignored.

The lake water of Consort De's palace was very cold, and Bai Yiyi was drenched in it. Even though the weather was hot, he could not bear it at all. He tightly pulled on his clothes, and his pale lips trembled, unable to utter a single word.

Just when everyone was about to continue arguing. The old nanny by Consort De's side suddenly walked over.

With such a big matter happening, it was impossible for Consort De not to know. Before, he had only been watching from the sidelines. It looked alright now, but he needed her to help him.

"Imperial Concubine asked everyone to go. Naturally, there will be an explanation for this." This mama was already an old man of the palace, and had a very high status in front of Consort De. Many people were somewhat fearful of her.

That was indeed the case. No matter what, they were currently on Consort De's territory. With such a huge incident, it was naturally impossible for Consort De not to care. Thus, none of the people present disobeyed her orders and followed her silently towards her palace.

Some of them were willing to watch the show, so they followed along as well.

"What the hell is going on? "Miss Bai, tell me first." Consort De pretended to look exhausted. She pinched the center of her brows and indicated for Bai Yiyi to speak.

Bai Yiyi had not had a chance to speak up just now. She was shivering from cold and resentful towards Yan Ling. Now that there was such a good opportunity, how could she let it go?

Bai Yiyi lowered her head reluctantly, gritted her teeth, and pretended to be pitiful as she spoke. "This subject saw Eldest Miss Yan standing by the lake by herself and wanted to greet her, but Eldest Miss Yan warned me not to get too close to His Highness …"

The corners of Bai Yiyi's lips curled up into a cold smile as she spoke. After everything that had happened, Bai Yiyi could naturally tell that the Concubine De seemed to want to seduce Yan Ling and Third Prince, so there was a high chance that she would defend Yan Ling.

However, if the esteemed wangfei found out at this time, all Yan Ling could think of was His Highness the crown prince, then he probably wouldn't protect her anymore. In this way, their plans could be considered to have been completed.

"Your servant believes herself to be of lowly status. How could I dare to approach Your Highness? He naturally would not admit to something he had not done before. However … However, Miss Yan did not believe what this subject said. She immediately attacked the subject's daughter, and accidentally pushed her into the lake. " Bai Yiyi lowered her head and cried in a wronged manner.

Imperial Concubine De had been dissatisfied with Yan Ling just now due to the third prince's excessive actions at the banquet. Now that she heard Bai Yiyi's words, she understood that there was someone else in this woman's heart, but her anger only grew.

Actually, the reason Consort De had called the Third Prince into the palace was to disapprove of Yan Ling and his marriage. However, the Third Prince had actually dissuaded him for a long time. He had finally agreed with great difficulty, and in the blink of an eye, something like this had happened.

Princess Guangyan was standing at the side. Naturally, she could see the change in Consort De's expression. She immediately felt unwell in her heart.

The reason Princess Zhao Yan had been so composed was only because she felt that the Concubine De would protect her 'future daughter-in-law' at this time. However, looking at the situation now, it was clear that Consort De was even angrier.

Although Princess Guangyan wasn't clear on the reason why Consort De was acting this way, she understood that if the situation continued to develop like this, the situation would be dire. It was clear that such a situation was extremely disadvantageous for Yan Ling.

The person in the great hall was not an intelligent person, so he was able to make out a few clues. All of a sudden, there was only absolute silence. One by one, they carefully looked at the dejected face of the Concubine De, thinking about something else.

"Yan Ling, I just heard from someone else that there's only the two of you there. Since something like this has happened in my place, I can't just ignore it. How do you explain yourself, Yan Ling? "

After a long while, Consort De somewhat reluctantly eased his expression and continued speaking.
