Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvXgfW0hyQ
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUT1dR0mSu
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkchHpy3WGY
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBwNatyIGp
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkjGYtzZsD
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAuPGpDed2
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2FH4Qd8MI
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRF0FqQakW
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 low385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopOEFRaLhM
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqPlOqTnzO
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjcKFfuoRU
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJD5BsTFyb
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivDsuFdpit
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhC90GGlcw
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRWv35wFCZ
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv3vuIw6aM
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI7eHGOnqI
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3QR9duBv6
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmUtWV5Z2S
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTtyThbyBU
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72QpPwzNS5
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwCWwoKZok
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksqg32xwPW
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lA7NkOKxC
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KHOlWUTX0
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsiRMJsP09
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsej3cCSdB5
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vvbvstIAs
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFVUU9PzKr
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6smehrJeB
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NIPhJJPVM
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZbTUbXS9V
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8eRrr3A7h
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM0La5UGkt
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYVBzE0PYZ
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJ0Ly1SSo5
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1vu7AnzKo
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRW8VeYoh1Y
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcl7lOpqVA
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqBUZxNkfp
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDEG9bo5GN
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuUUmdO8vt
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0eVERKK6M
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0aCA8duhk
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 a385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2ht7X0aEC
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDsEIf4KXL
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sAjRhlw0h
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi3lAg5wQ7
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JdYvL3yF8
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF4qPFfycw
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd3f5CVtMq
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 Xuan385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwq8YxNXoY
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. She385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SX8KaADAO
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tz89xgz5V
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEwLVQXYVo
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ581H5y0in
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKAEjO3jXM
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZqlBZJZ5d
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5VWUCLMGY
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, the385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlp0iGW34a
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZVkZLRQUV
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpRBxWxeuC
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYWT3FRDTx
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.385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AzzUOnxjF
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqewYgFxRIe
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfxXZ7csYm
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN3oGjtrnl
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifgCJujoCj
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOv5C4d3NM
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 be385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtxeIunF6A
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsdXpLDSfx
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuMbgNMutC
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXx7OV55GQ
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3pmvz1QrV
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEXiyB7Yjh
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSKAD0YrWJ
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKwMttwEN4
Ning.”
