The woman's voice was kept extremely low. Had the inner hall not been so quiet, it would have been impossible to hear her so clearly.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty. No one but I knows it's a fake!"
It was unclear what the man said, but the woman let out a soft, sweet laugh.
"Your Majesty, you can set your mind at ease. When Lou Shixun enters the palace to report, he will present the fake Tiger Talisman to you in front of everyone. Won't he become the one at fault then? No one will ever know!"
"And how do you plan to deal with him?"
The voices on the other side paused, and Huang Ying's heart leaped into her throat.
"Ah? The execution of his entire clan?"
The voice was very quiet, deliberately hushed.
"I... I didn't realize it was so serious..."
A moment later, her words devolved into incoherent fragments.
"Your Majesty... Huang... Liangyuan is still waiting over there—"
...
"Xiang Lan, have Huang Liangyuan return for now..."
