Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wPLd1d1ws
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ714nG66DyE
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W8Ev5SgOc
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OAtYnuKbG
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcQglSfk67
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbFwlBWNKh
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwZZrGIGFv
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWyfs0NvU1
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 low429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLKw44ofVr
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vQW7rsxXJ
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnfGep5m5K
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWISdF6VA7
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAGv68cBeW
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAqWA0WJGX
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61dGyIuzoE
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm14AfYkJG
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FAoPd1Lu8
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmaBUBI3Wp
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgrelmFRDx
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRvhWfP28b
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH1f7223W9
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDyc8t8jXL
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEvfUDUrtU
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAPmOi79AP
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutfPcqDSRT
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeTq0Bb3of
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLNGcRYTEp
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZTkQ1YOH8
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BC5LGc6CH
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs01gKKRdCj
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbsImS0GkN
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAIIlUaODx
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qCjuYnjgh
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsijiOl8Tc
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB8IiLB9J9
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQFIM7OGfG
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozgsoza56o
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7hHJcuMss
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo696Bal6A
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RXrve4tNt
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSf3vkG1vu
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKTm0Pt28K
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBRfuZbtkK
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tIdmxL9GE
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 a429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4xoTIugm7
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnL9t3fJTl
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2s0jsh4RU
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6TEYQG1aK
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4htBSGwGPX
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS65hWNjKzR
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDbYoClIdM
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 Xuan429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLf3hAE7HI
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. She429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDdm5VGzMT
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ5QnUARkU
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXdIbn57Gv
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCNNYvLdAh
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6UsxZnxDq
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGciIiJ5Ki
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4nSxV91OP
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, the429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq31XxsL7bB
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9UH2LRmCA
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQG4QrVgJd
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQlNPUHugY
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.429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnNrLBFAqq
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcbgUuUDca
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJZjuAhK9z
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUWKR45t90
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTAHOrdKAt
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDFRWjnWV3
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 be429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnttIuqvpgs
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCR0nlMQQn
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CvTqCbdng
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKMAnyqIx6
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUFgaF97Bx
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYH3jVrRHq
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB80YjrLoFG
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess429Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKjtdz3lGT
Ning.”
