Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbGFLzAjke
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMVGOekPyf
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlCJtfZh6o
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT5ZKXxcJz
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfhwz5K6A7
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVLwysW8dW
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQOSsOviAn
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomw8yxPDuk
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 low489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqSL545AOo
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1jOQdkVsr
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv6FG6fZNH
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkPAy87B8x
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlUb0HYXUJ
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPtE7fOmyv
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtis7uR1PA5
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhKSXQYJwP
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o5zhLC580
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXqRyNO00t
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEez1OitKZk
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQLE5TRnlo
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNw9Qybj0C
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRmmD6f4L1
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum9Jk31lDt
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUNAtwvf1p
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfHPQqFqwe
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMFzvvbZ81
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy0Ls2LOUq
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhgcfUWlsK
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IY47AHicI
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsm48CaHft
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXIKPFez8h
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFxF9bWchE
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡru7Hz11ysz
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjqkVNyR54
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa58fFMiJVL
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4jD7WNB02
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroH9bwMqYB
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhKPLnjSkD
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrasZ37JqNt
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw72TzmSRb
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJHJUtALty
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBGttwX8fb
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHXVhzwhSc
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH65pcAraYM
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 a489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1BtSX7a1z
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsSksNVX9V
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C3ZcMGFiD
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqEtezzJyY
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc3797wEO9
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyT4RMZDED5
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8spvkwxDG
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 Xuan489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxgH1dcYJw
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. She489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8C84WyVAbx
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83hHVLPMO5
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOoQaQp0gT
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVuMwg5yCp
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z8AE7enKo
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgAknzXjF7
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvk13vdp5w
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, the489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYC3f4b1bW
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cvEevaFMy
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLjoKiQW0w
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG6ru1EhSm
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.489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U7MNdYF2t
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6Hsy5AyAE
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQumNjAvXQZ
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl6nXfKh3P
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJbhTKbZu3
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jZGif01f8
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 be489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgiL0QqdTE
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVmokYQI5D
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb9lprtPzB
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHzvHszCgN
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydo776bwH1
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKXsbFuTp9
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOmQlFov7G
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess489Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITsSnKAbz8
Ning.”
