Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL7bn4FT6g
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33MtJ97Q9n
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKz02q75pkU
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGwCUzR3a3
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyxE3UbBwc
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg2vce3TAq
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKfZmzzfEF
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcXikKM20Q
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 low381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01cJXdL2Ff
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgU4249P7k
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaxgIRTUxZ
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoUAerL5UH
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDvH2zdacb
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqu2zR5S3p
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNJb5oWuSk
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdjb7TnylC
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoaEC4fU2Y
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq0J4eJHUG
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4sCSg3i8F
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE95UUCwXV
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJO8Fbt7c3
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH69uBDD5CZ
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp8v4QzWz5
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4g74aKRjf
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfhBDa5THg
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZGfzCXAtA
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJksf5eGva
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtw5rqsqqpn
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNxYgbS1W3
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNzHanZwLF
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7oaGBKfHh
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj6uiB3RBd
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1K3HSw0eC
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGJMpS8XM4
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxZN3oTZSW
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmSNINXueK
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ctvm8WnoW
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA1ZLMAH5U
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCATrkqTWd
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYyfbdZxWU
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum7HG9buR0
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cbzpzSZze
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lAOdXN9XL
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBg98vBSin
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 a381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgfyMUsAF7
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8SsHjMiiM
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd1tM1qzY7
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnRuQDRHVg
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbOGBFBM3M
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc1iqw66jD
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa7sD3M0Rg
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 Xuan381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlVkW1ZOsS
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. She381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQUNqij3rd
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUedmiX7P0P
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3prcCeooFx
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hght8jMPv
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlgb9C6CAQ
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nbIGLf89h
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgLRic4xsi
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, the381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4PiiJb7QV
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6Ft7ix7os
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVrvwTGliD
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAl3iCgSK7
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.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLGDuLb6iL
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7HGL7Tk3R
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUIVVs2cRw
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9ree6gEvA
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbrYWhnBF9
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUaKDlhp4z
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 be381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQX6GpXAq6
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBftxdnezt1
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvazOisJUIq
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YwBsayOW2
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUFfAR4GfP
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6wB7RH2JA
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7d5fQdXaV
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8HwQrwjJL
Ning.”
