Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikWLuYFPvf
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnNuJU7sAF
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxCaDN8XPm
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQK17Cf7eF
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAhtAOBrfU
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMxEfKWcn1
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c5kCr1mzH
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoSojFl2Tl
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 low422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pt5ijO4cB
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VllkXI8gu
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenXvTjGNbr
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJd5JHvCGE
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR35lmzklbL
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6aBvIQZdD
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZykm1jVcz9
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5J6IUY7Ht
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSip5BASj3
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWUDAJSjnH
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDVAfBzGlZ
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCwLnCdXhB
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9slCE3xZE
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY0dCT5Noa
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaATKJIWhWg
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1Mk3o1KQC
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNAXtMBONx
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaAOPUk6ib
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXwCOvpM9J
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOUxPgmlOI
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3H1gEyKzg
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLMMlJhfSY
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntrPoXgPlT
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZCDo2lIBK
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoFfIdRcLA
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1ARShr9j1
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozSGWi5oJQ
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4tEIgJphp
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq7YLCi1hG
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHTIJ1EnTf
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PMxO5S3mV
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5f95G0G9Cy
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiebjDksoj
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvttfaMX2Sb
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6HAwBa4dw
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOq74NYHUt
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 a422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qSTsNMeTd
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiIDb94kIk
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZphjrIs3R
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqVnyNTBqs
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5fr6bgKOB
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3nl5CwWtG
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIq30hJnGZ
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 Xuan422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBtpAEIFYV
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. She422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVwTURR927
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeHgxIZ8U8
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ09L7EZA7
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd3BCDQwf8
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIAqBLHC4M
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O17ms1i2k
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZUdDd0ULt
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, the422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ9oZtI7TT
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4J3pjXAWb
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJY4edMbj3
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0XLBX8S8M
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.422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOQjSNEKFP
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByzo6B0X38
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLH6k4LOrb
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJfl5Raowd
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcIUiHakkn
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ibqEblvVK
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 be422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgBk6ZHuvz
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXeVovyFwE
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsnVeyuQDs
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZGbiiAEfc
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh74ZaFkVVH
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTLPVprEXn
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNixn0pw1W
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess422Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82FoZL2wA3
Ning.”
