Chapter 2813   - 2813: Master Wang: Expel Me Too

Walking to the couch and sitting down, Qiao Nian raised her head and casually asked, "Am I going to be expelled from the Privy Council?"

Elder Xue was stunned. He did not expect her guess to be so accurate. Smiling bitterly, he held his forehead and looked at her helplessly. "You knew you would be expelled if you did that. Why did you do it?"

He shook his head. "Actually, as long as you didn't do anything to Ji Ziyin, the matter wouldn't be so serious. But you did it. One of the three iron rules of the Privy Council is that fighting between fellow members is not allowed. If she's in the wrong, you must report it to the Privy Council. After an internal review, they will give her the corresponding punishment…"

Qiao Nian leaned back and placed her hand on the armrest. She met his gaze and said, "If I hand her over to the Privy Council to deal with, what can she be punished for in my aunt's matter?" "This…" Elder Xue was slightly stunned.

Qiao Nian got up lazily and walked to the water dispenser. Then, she replied with a casual tone, "Aunt Yuan is not from the Privy Council, nor is she from the reclusive families. With the reclusive families' nature, even an ant from the Privy Council is nobler than my aunt in your eyes.

"Therefore, whether she was in a car accident or kidnapped, even if your people really caused her to become a cripple, the Privy Council will not give her justice.

"At most, you'll condemn Ji Ziyin and Luke's actions from a moral standpoint. You might even privately think that she's simply unlucky to have been involved in the reclusive families' dispute…"

The girl's voice was calm. There was no anger or accusation in her tone.

However, the silver-haired old man felt as if he had been seen through. He was so ashamed that he could not show his face. "The reclusive families have been like this for thousands of years. They can't be changed overnight." Qiao Nian took a sip of water and stared at the ripples on the surface. Then, she looked up at him. "I know."

Therefore, she had planned to resolve this matter in her own way from the beginning. Luke and Ji Ziyin had to pay the price!

Elder Xue was smart and immediately understood her thoughts.

He did not try to persuade Qiao Nian not to be impulsive. After all, it had already happened. There was no point in arguing whether it was right or wrong.

He looked at the girl's young face and thought of the extraordinary talent she had displayed. In the end, he cherished her talent. He sighed and looked away. "I tried my best to help you, but this time, the Empress personally requested to punish you two severely. In the end, you were expelled from the Privy Council. Ye Wangchuan… is still under observation because he was just an accomplice. If he performs well during the observation period, this matter will be over. Otherwise, he will have the same outcome as you."

Ye Wangchuan did not expect to be dragged into this. He smiled and shrugged lazily. "No need. It's too troublesome. Just expel me as well!"

Elder Xue frowned. "You…"

Ye Wangchuan was honest, but it sounded annoying, at least in Elder Xue's ears. "I entered the Privy Council to accompany her. Since she has been expelled, there's no point in me staying."
