The veiled lady was very calm. She turned to face Lin Yi's direction and confidently stated, "I am a person of Mister Lin, and I would not harm Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Lin Yi was frightened into a cold sweat behind her back. When had Yin Niange secretly run out, and to openly claim to be his person here?
Wasn't this pushing him into a pit of fire?
The young Emperor sensed that something was off with Lin Yi's expression and, combining it with what the veiled woman had said, he was basically certain that she was unaware of Lin Yi's eunuch identity.
"Ying Qi! This young lady claims to be affiliated with Mister Lin, go and confirm it."
Fortunately, Ying Qi immediately discerned Lin Yi's concern and quickly approached, whispering a few words into Yin Niange's ear.
After hearing that, Yin Niange was utterly stunned, and suddenly at a loss for words. Slowly, she took off her veil, revealing a fresh and clean face, staring blankly at Lin Yi.
