Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9VGCmKNta
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WVvyLGWvR
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdCgV4rdsC
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBnZE65tEa
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQknZO3Zos0
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡislJ6kl8mC
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCTttLUBx2
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyMxYHKbBV
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 low459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqSUmCXKMx
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweXR7mzcp6
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzzIOEmgyl
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxjLt1jku4
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEN1TKj6A2
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN4XMvnwSS
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxe4I8Pyvn
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7aEOR1PYC
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCK0G0jYUQ
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTH0jkFr9G
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj1oaYhsdn
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpWj582f7A
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4mHH3Wiyb
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Oh0Gr4IVs
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg73gy3BZ2P
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV2hMKjqzv
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0cpwW7tKR
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx4a7YNRuY
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7AtLkZ04y
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS985k3NsU
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJ4HF4AMF1
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VYGOtgVCk
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BKCuZF4X3
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvofNTKEQq
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxG1wlOCk5
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEUJUZquxX
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv0GFMKTek
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlm76WRsaY
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2tIlrw4ba
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T1eZB1Ziz
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFXk8xz3tC
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7YpIh4y9H
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSKxj8W5X3
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUHEoKYLD4
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKlfhBSnyt
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9Y1L78MXG
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 a459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgTWW1DidI
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbfViwhchl
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj7QdcEkTM
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGjkP5Ef3R
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhpfLz5Vlk
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkVTi79hrj
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKAbus4sO0
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 Xuan459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8vQXR3uYI
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. She459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPIk2KYH7v
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSP14gwLDQO
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFY2ETRCR5
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEQUFXc0q4
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd6THSIHvP
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBsWBXSfLo
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmew8iFVdG
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, the459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8n0cmRAPX
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxpxrt45w1
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI57mZorfQU
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOjgmopjgR
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.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgrYRsgXmj
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxygJUPymaq
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8K6MMTqTKb
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawGa47V23R
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbKvPByQdK
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza24kKLL5Z
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 be459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLHSBZkA6k
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MI0zJ7g46
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTxd2cKaUe
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCJQtQZGtC
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0nQUKjbPn
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsEe8juvvo
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0gCjqHjGP
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjXF3oHfEq
Ning.”
