Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbzu2yqo3W
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8xpHLaDsx
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQynRgzADm1
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1Ednn0Buj
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQpxzVaZ5a
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbZ73ukqSA
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJq3HDs9hu
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1r29QtT35
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 low467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8Amni5tMv
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEYVedJSru
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QKCJKVKiC
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqnR5I8oEu
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Mql0q0sUm
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCyoiluhex
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2Va6yeo2r
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMqWQAhF4V
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVeWn8pkIA
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU2yPDdUu5
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8R9bMDqC7
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZTkv3z669
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn0TDwIlqV
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2gq9wIfcV
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxOcNvWwVw
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MDZYK6lmv
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TQ4Gkufpt
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5vTpnW4VN
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtFasYGxj3
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISPjjaA7Ef
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOWDofxNM8
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT83XpXX4O
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ly8EJrNHl
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dzSLC5WbW
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLASDIqYLR
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5OYAZ022i
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXPJtBHSjr
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtUAHGMnvy
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKBmS61sLu
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XsqUgOHM8
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBntNjmQWhC
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTR87iYc5c
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20g8ZNLLhM
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaMroChDea
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kEfGOZMJi
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlfm37OcD0
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 a467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzXkAZBOiE
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Et2apKrtg
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUy28TS7ID
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMo8udRnrX
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVchhLrXQU
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Bejymoepp
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtJ275KF6v
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 Xuan467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN8unUUQyx
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. She467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGdoXTXt2x
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZH3Dr52yp
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR84cr2DRiz
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ143ss6DfQq
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt5icAMpKk
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9R5c11LMF
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7Os90dqwc
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, the467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxCu6mBCrH
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENCDrhtuZy
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7r5C3prJJy
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JByItCQR7
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.467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzxH2dpEL2
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Nw4l9Fc3I
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡll4FwWNXll
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSq5PpzQfS
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFzgDglPer
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zAhLXuYK7
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 be467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VV6l9HC5r
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVSGJq0zDw
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB2E32irIf
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbPZ6yTG3J
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAsanJk4Da
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd7JXE3llw
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcJ7Lq96IW
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess467Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQpq8lyCmX
Ning.”
