Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwpicZGdaF
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ3ZBqDU41
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh7g8KgxdK
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFCD8yAxNx
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVz9pcVrBi
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfDgpcXiCo
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZCc2N86i8
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuIt1ObhSj
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 low487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UUIcUaRUn
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDnOUWPbVn
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVxvZU9P9s
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFuqUZUsYW
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b451ghJER
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyFxUVOL3o
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO55Qprabli
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOmQCwOqQZ
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEWDH5UZfh
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj693WAXFD
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajTtIO3cQO
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZSQIW6lEf
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXmkxgKmhV
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp83vKKq3T
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHyHdamyAc
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZPRpqvgRr
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGISNlsoXjl
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Kf1Nlz0z
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxrMB2ng2C
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnfl1S5tHo
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg218JgUp5l
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgFrt48G8S
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYodBmWXDYA
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs25GwZGB3f
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ryZkb2ZlQ
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMzxO06SKW
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtQlnwSS8L
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3MdXxQI50
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3ftOPunmx
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj76bjT26zL
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuReuNtjv2F
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvcvNfSXHe
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Jz6UrWMkF
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIGdGkWzJe
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScPsTqeYIp
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSipKSY0cV
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 a487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRutaJUHRoz
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3tU4XHb0h
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX7CBJIycT
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKD3jIhldn
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgKxY5CXoq
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKlJk7YXvC
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhrgHc6j3x
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 Xuan487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkGVeLGUun
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. She487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTUnKlFP8x
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIKaubH2O8
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkqqRJClyN
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IW8UeKaUl
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6fNkzGqrQ
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6qpgXjgP2
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQdl68kWKY
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, the487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDs7NCAlLP
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1aoLwhJ6J
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBvb0Ova5j
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpakcbcwML
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.487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFT2mo5GsJ
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRBhQzDcr2
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUtCeLf8s1
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BurUrue8N
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQEiwLW1TX
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQunkvfE3z
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 be487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6uWGybH24
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctgz2NK62g
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cRhpI4NfJ
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegGqlPrtpb
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMskTQupTgo
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCcbthFYX0
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIshMBBf6ZW
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess487Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQsdViz7YA
Ning.”
