Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxnpgYKcsU
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I2up0e2XU
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzYs8xsUez
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPP1bgfrgT
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem55GVEihe
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdixX3mHd6
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMRLzbbQOh
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6ErS5J0yz
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 low477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gz3rMYBbk
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0fpTZJ0h8
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDsBs8cQgL
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBl7H43DfU
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4N7n2ILR8
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdUp3ypZee
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi6MuZJcEI
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKh6e40aj1
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiqjQYfwkt
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAD4E7tAGo
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapRq0HaJSh
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tCQgVCfDy
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcV8iBeXeI
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12sboFvOm1
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJujxn19GUJ
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZdhQszNlK
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn6ZlLANGf
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaZUeuciOa
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWuRz9yxgF
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF58C8LXGL
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zbpm39Uos
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hpt0pMDbC
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC3DcP103f
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9SlSBtwHl
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGoxyhlq4Q
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDKdFg5eR4
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO6ZTIc4qq
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83oVvRYwgv
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSughI1edtO
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe5BMPcawa
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyC2TtPiK9
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3w0IZYvup
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMRwczZWbh
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vaqxIyur1
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEU0Iq9xX6
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeymESxYhDP
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 a477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93cNfEl0yz
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTXGBFFvcq
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CEGeNqUgD
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lQkrisaNM
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc2wJZlxgg
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx1NcjuAoA
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWEZNrk73w
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 Xuan477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO3kGZGOKR
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. She477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7wDKdwQeU
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gO1vBkH4t
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEtwYrpm6w
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmZ8n7Ohs8
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMrCEotBqy
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpcd8mrddT
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5KedxJ3Oi
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, the477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtGQMkeOCI
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXNN0TzgJr
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pUwm9kdta
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyBlTgK6Nh
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.477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk0kk0ENU7
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx7N3OUERk
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPCFlERL48
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCxwSTCtgU
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcODYCPZJr
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnMZKyU3jh
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 be477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XB0lJaHNg
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD3yCPgKKT
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkslZK7eYkk
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyYJ2fCz6L
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QSASTOU81
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZveyHSHWF
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebcm5anz6I
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess477Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb8r8u0Mlg
Ning.”
