Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfj5Yei5C3
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH20Seds8uc
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDMOhHBQAA
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkotBy93cIq
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanZCVp4kM5
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsZF22y3iS
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UfZQ2gpUI
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLO3fNxNS1
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 low442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9OTJIvlgI
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQidTn6R8TA
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3EUtmSmfN
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtOrPeERpW
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHVAn9IWfc
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTTdsufOIg
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLZP90l0Tp
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVONsL6WZAc
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w7dSf1ssp
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KGhhNHAVJ
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTQGNJHAWU
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOg6sEgwEz
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7nSXqfHTN
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXCYlDiRpZ
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDUsqIRhnp
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VQjpITidj
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qAkcOIbgl
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArNzt9Ssp5
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwYQXlszYS
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiodaaTvnd
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEb1Ookydu
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ycONMW0gQ
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4wx35ERhU
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgy25dSSqD
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHqqVuHU5M
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGhBHoLE7A
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjW370G7iy
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupFsfpjjCj
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX2HUWPPr1
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3Bz4wPCoQ
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKtJTcAsYF
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h2jXXwptI
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgbA9LHnNv
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXVo25F9PH
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9nQT8DLGJ
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO2qAsl80k
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 a442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjn5MMqtGX
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bynYx4nLj
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWdzzJSWZC
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCdC3n5PAf
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUAUfu6P1c
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwOlm8WxiS
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0v9jokFkI9
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 Xuan442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIdqOZ4wql
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. She442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSMHoyqO8a
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DUSATm9hw
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUdXQ4Gkcm
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibbkwfGTSo
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ866YTnP1AM
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgHq6LpHYa
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NQsPUCc1S
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, the442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2L5gRpQqG
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuxEIHF5w1
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvw5t2U28U
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl84I8DyT6P
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.442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAgUJKsYRg
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KVJWnWyaj
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2oQOktbp2
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjAbLH78GY
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXrViMZNYb
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcrXrgtu94
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 be442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RtnLaQnps
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgGD9FkLxk
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81cB3uHyNM
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5dC8mw2Cj
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaziP3XQC8R
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRfJY5S8Cm
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNZ1KwdRB9
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52093TtCN5
Ning.”
