Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX04goaYrpo
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfPdpdTyie
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBaDT5pLtc
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtIEmfMiQu
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiJ918VeRi
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThIXB92GPG
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv5eukQodE
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MUZ23WEq3
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 low310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsTBRhwVlk
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PL2yKjjJg
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q8ECpidh1
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWh4BNdD8c
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxutTLhiySC
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5L8h1FLjW7
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKo7dloOLF
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AqQzah8Hi
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtmFAMJAhl
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVfkJTSSrm
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpxwPdYMFy
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zx93vU1WP
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5HBpWAtZ6
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iWFDbz7Ak
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yoll9wsy2
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSUwmC1HTi
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq0C1jCSkC
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m0zYj1KKW
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGPnMyazxV
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI59FqDDSK
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHpuuj0qmN
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZNgSwTCOC
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Dsfpbt688
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjsdGQXufZ
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1exZVEGRt
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIzWpWmTAr
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAXmednMY1
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUkUwicRMg
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpahoUiSRY
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYx0W6XafT
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wI7BQHny9
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvIiLWOGti
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX5bmWYxLH
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFRyHqkFjc
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLZev3W62k
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5TFVB43Mt
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 a310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuYoSJPjOT
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRM7A9dZ9u
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVPZtFoJQB
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHlmqn8zm6
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbucInMbaie
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HrueD4XsD
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUbjcS9A8z
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 Xuan310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3SLJUKrgg
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. She310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTH5LsxPUO
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEMTw6m6uJ
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGerskheWpU
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPePliqryT
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUmBS6lXGy
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgIzkCtG0S
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsvGFvioYu
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, the310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w4dnTCZi6
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxVM6nOFBZ
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMaBHaHcbK
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7WwjlZFhr
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.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G3hhQGMKD
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnRoomPBk4
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9vOBpVB4f
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODcbcL6Nxp
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHwC6E3f2w
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYMWHIRNG4
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 be310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWhWsWhsgr
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnRFpeeEBe
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInAUFaxWso
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJf6Lv9VAg
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mXcPNk3Gq
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOUJObOyWX
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79FrR2xiqC
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEqm1teeGQ
Ning.”
