Chapter 1157

The expressions of the royal guards behind Mo Chuan instantly changed.

"How dare you mock the emperor! Do you know your crime? "The leader of the imperial guards couldn't hold back and shouted at the Northern Qi envoy.

The Northern Qi envoy proudly raised his chin and sat motionless in his chair. He snorted, "What crime did I commit? Am I not speaking the truth? "

Chen Ning stepped forward and spoke in a voice even colder than the Northern Qi envoy's. "Whether it is the truth or not, we will use the truth to speak. We have come this time to find out the truth."

Her voice was as cold as ice, like pearls hitting a jade plate, clear and pleasant to the ear.

The Northern Qi envoy couldn't help but raise his head and look at her a few times, his eyes slightly narrowing.

"Woman? Who are you? This is a matter of national importance. What place do you, a woman, have? " His tone became even more disdainful as he said to Mo Chuan, "Your country really can't find anyone, to actually let a woman come out and tell you what to do."

Mo Chuan's expression froze, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes. The Northern Qi envoy felt a chill on his back, and he couldn't help but swallow the rest of his words.

He was originally arrogant and arrogant, but after being glared at by Mo Chuan, he unconsciously lowered his arrogance.

"Please speak with a bit of respect. This is my empress," Mo Chuan said coldly.

"So it's the empress. This envoy greets the empress." The Northern Qi envoy's expression changed slightly. He finally stood up from his chair and reluctantly bowed to Chen Ning.

"The empress has also come. Could it be that you have found the stolen blueprint? Or have you found out the identity of the thief? "The sarcasm on his face became even stronger.

Chen Ning's gaze was fixed on the envoy, observing his every expression. Hearing this, she faintly smiled.

"I have come this time to find the blueprint. I heard that it was placed in a box and disappeared. May I ask the envoy, where is that box now?"

The Northern Qi envoy laughed coldly. "Of course the box is still there, but the blueprint is gone. The empress, you are so powerful. Could it be that you want to make the blueprint come out of the box?"

Chen Ning calmly said, "Please take out the box and let me have a look."

The Northern Qi envoy coldly looked at her and impatiently pointed at the table next to him.

"The box is over there. If the empress wants to see it, please go ahead."

Chen Ning looked in the direction of his finger. She saw an eight treasure gold box with pearls open, revealing the silk inside. The box was completely empty.

"Is it this box?"

She walked over, picked up the box, weighed it in her hand, and put her hand in to feel it.

The Northern Qi emissary laughed coldly. "If you can conjure the blueprint out of the box, I will eat the eight-treasure golden box on the spot!"

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly widened, almost popping out of their sockets.

He saw Chen Ning's hand come out of the box. Her slender fingers were holding a few pages of blueprints as she gently waved them in front of him.

"This this …"

The Northern Qi envoy's jaw almost dropped. His face was full of disbelief as he stared dazedly at the map in Chen Ning's hand.

"Honorable envoy, may I ask if these are the blueprints that were stolen?"

Chen Ning looked over the paper. Seeing the densely packed figures on it, she already had an idea of what to do.
