Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpYgu0hGJs
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsphcBmFecD
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUJPR89cTx
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptXa1y3utQ
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ5qMSU5De
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYGckjUMei
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTGRyK90lu
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGy5ALbbx4
stay away from this case, it would be completely impossible.
His daughter was the one who got implicated.
“What type of poison is it?” The Emperor asked in a low380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQDKPfb2ki
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dAptEOqPe
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWXvEUKTGX
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdayPKbAIsr
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Lg8aM6bv
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmhUkyFk7J
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2U3T5htWS
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTuaz9xxkd
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1eBsiFECX
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNotH6x4qUI
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOtyANJIxs
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYn2T7EHXH
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILfZd5RBKY
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtQiuVmTtI
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4yKBSdVC2
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Um0SsSUIY
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDax1o1nIUS
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sNTWXBurU
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7GsrFzvbq
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ15A0l9SUV
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqKlhL2yoc
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPBa2MMxjA
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEPGGSUOoX
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRoHtXYbex
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6OB2e5mfN
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ea37L3dA
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AU5bpwQsv
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeH7bKQVrQA
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZo2nZJtDU
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRpA2WLcco
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZKtciphnH
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2V3hn7MsP
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMUlUz5U1A
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqrU2XBxVm
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lV6125mL9
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGwCxxcgMG
generation would be the legitimate heir.
That was, if the next emperor didn’t have children either.
In any case, it was a much better position than being a380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12J2YMfQyB
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoQyczHuX7
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmbx5oSR4r
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgVgh43SKy
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HhGLKtbfD
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gfA0cPoZL
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNV43A3qaa
because Lin Han Xing was an ambitious man. He would not let go of this chance.
He looked at the two sons that Lin Han Xing had. Lin Zi Xuan380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQW2CyslWd
was a bit old while Lin Hu Xi did have suitable age gap with Princess Ning.
“What do you think of Lin Han Xing’s sons?”
Lin Xie Ya’s expression faltered when she heard that. She380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6xLLwo2NG
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxokl4E8j1
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUHOFEKb4t
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9q9P8zF9e
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiGOLbDI5d
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLvHFZ8kYR
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes54o5Jh0L
gathering power under him.
“Wouldn’t it be reasonable to have him responsible for her?”
Lin Xie Ya couldn’t find any word to retort. After all, the380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VutDkTqk3
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRtTdTbrv6
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91PevXsQLA
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ91TZOZqTr
owner of the cup, this turned into a problem.
Many people would be talking about this matter.
“I wouldn’t mind.” Prime Minister Feng stood forward.380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ0IFn3NF6
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPogC3wWgoK
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzdpCLOgYN
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT7VesGCvN
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nVNiP5zxD
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzijb9e9D6
father said. He didn’t want to be with a mute! “Father, I…”
“Quiet!” Lin Han Xing glared at his son.
Lin Hu Xi shut his mouth unhappily. He didn’t want to be380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr722Ly4j6
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNEKDzlMNT
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7rMCbdxO6
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3uW9TdEXM
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1fYgUbP4S
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHC8Tt1vJP
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnKieHknxh
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess380Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKRL8apqqP
Ning.”
