Prang!
The sound of porcelains broken could be heard from the main446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVUKyNOxu1
palace. The eunuch and servants were all trying their best to reduce their446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArUngiU6Gr
presence. They were all afraid that they would be the next target.
“Hiding poison in the new tea that I have prepared, how446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiytrVLVLd
bold.” The cold and chilling voice caused everyone to tremble in fear. They all446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuFSgiTkaM
knew that the Empress was angry. To think that the new type of tea that she446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKsKBhKm3u
introduced in her last tea party was now used to hide a new type of poison.
“We have already arrested the culprit, Your Majesty.” Prime446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EfaANvFVW
Minister Feng Hou Zheng cupped his fist. His veins were bulging because he was446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGY0xh1x7T
angry that their first target ended up being his daughter. Even if he wanted to446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtzFg4MH9T
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 low446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWP6B19BjW
tone. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. Even though he was446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjCORJJQHM
displeased that the accident occurred during the Imperial Party, he was someone446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6ATH8vlN7
who knew how to control his emotion well.
“It’s a fast acting poison that worked like acid,” The446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0rOs5objG
Imperial Doctor replied respectfully.
“How’s Princess Ning?”
“Her life is saved.” The Imperial Doctor was silent for a446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNEEqOI96w
while. “However, the poison had damaged her vocal cord. It’s unknown whether446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSez3L4ri4
she can recover or not.”
Vocal cord.
“Aaaaaa!” Wailing cries exploded from the side as Lin Xie Ya446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQok71csuq
displayed her acting skill as a caring mother. She looked at her brother and446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3c9N0Iw8n
begged, “Your Majesty, please get justice for my poor daughter. She’s still446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqS9jjMDtp
young and should have a bright future, but this will make her life hard…446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHtKBXKRLL
(omitted 10,000 words).”
Listening to her description, it would seem as if she was446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn35yOA4efU
truly a caring mother who was aggrieved for the injustice her daughter446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYyHJnkXoR
suffered. Though, those who were listening to her rambling would also wonder446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGwmtQsDJN
when she would end her complaint. The length alone was enough to make eight446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqfz0DcW3i
legged essay!*
Prime Minister Feng Hou Zheng also nodded strongly, acting446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAFwFE35wH
as the most caring father in the world.
Only Feng Quan sneered in her heart because she knew that446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2k6IOZcpG
her parents didn’t even spend more than an incense stick of time in their446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6UK9E6qH6
entire life to stay near her younger sister. They didn’t even acknowledge her446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZst6A4xyv
existence until recently when this accident occurred.
“I’ll definitely get justice for her.” The Emperor raised446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xrcNkWFZp
his hand, effectively stopping Lin Xie Ya from her ongoing performance. He446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoDyHhdF5c
turned his head to look at the side where Lin Han Xing was standing. “How do446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmNAVmsxUS
you plan to repay this favor, Lin Han Xing?”
At this moment, Lin Han Xing was cursing his wife (Lin Zi446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsgW3gfU5U
Xuan’s mother)’s eight generation. He knew very well that Princess Ning was446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVGyYQMzNK
poisoned because she was drinking the cup that was supposed to be Lin Zi Xuan.446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFlXOzhwdi
If it was not because of her, the one who wouldn’t be able to speak would be446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqGjNaZUL8
his son.
If he had to say, he would rather have his son turned mute446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkydjyZH4Z
rather than getting thrown into this mess!
“Your Majesty, this servant will definitely pay enough446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItRljrpnYu
compensation for the damage on Princess Ning.”
Lin Xie Ya looked at the man with indignation. “Compensation446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCievlXGzyl
alone wouldn’t be enough. Who would want to marry my daughter when they know446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6Jn5uB2Ku
that she’s mute?”
Lin Han Xing was silent. He turned his head to look at his446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoda206zwB
second son, who muttered under his breath, “Who would want to be with a mute?446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuwgO7tZmz
She wouldn’t be able to do her job properly and will be nothing more than a446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WiZ8NtZaf
hassle.”
He nearly kicked his own son and screamed at his ear that it446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJNnZYyirE
was actually an opportunity for him to get close to her. After all, his sons446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhODZUY3SqU
didn’t have the legitimate right to inherit the throne despite having the same446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBWZ4t8vOW
surname. But if they got married with one of the princesses, the next446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTIN4zTS2R
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 a446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3ka1WKu8D
prince from different surname like this. They would be able to gain more446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ9yYfVBts
authority and also amassed even greater wealth compared than before.
“In that case, would you like for me to bestow a marriage446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL0dKxWHIM
agreement for your daughter, Imperial Sister?” the Emperor looked at his446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnQQhsy9Xk
cunning sister.
Lin Xie Ya bowed politely. “Your Majesty, that would be for446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDdOpvv9Or
the best.”
The Emperor looked at the eager Lin Han Xing, who nearly446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA5saIObYT
couldn’t hide his thoughts. He naturally knew what was in that man’s mind446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJc4Smf9Ys
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 Xuan446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kQW99J0EK
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. She446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCnaG1LUdY
didn’t like this man and naturally knew that if her daughter got married to446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWAdoIf2Kz
them, there was not much benefit that she could get. “Would it be appropriate,446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWqtzUvqlz
Your Majesty?”
“The one who caused your daughter to turn mute is Lin Zi446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOyvBXEfp7
Xuan.” The Emperor looked at the quiet young man, who stood at the back. Even446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDOK2A3WSo
though Lin Zi Xuan was also Lin Han Xing’s son, he wasn’t favored and even446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ic1HuyMa1
hated. He, being the Emperor, didn’t have any plan on allowing any of them446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglciuTzeUH
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, the446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtaa7RykGZ
other nobles had seen her daughter took the cup that belonged to Lin Zi Xuan.446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXktc1kRlC
They were cousins, so while it might be a bit inappropriate, they could chalk446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivmxep9Amr
it to a child’s mischievousness.
But when the young princess was poisoned rather than the446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewdclHEJup
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.446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j8iX1romJ
“However, I still would like to have them to give compensation for the damage446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjHmsc8uVE
done to my beloved daughter.”
“Compensation is only natural. In that case…”
“Wait, Your Majesty.” Lin Han Xing’s palm was sweating.446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuYkMAQYon
“While it was true that the cause of the matter lies in Lin Zi Xuan, but he’s446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv3c3baPZv
far older than Princess Ning. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for my second446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHufIxyIfzE
son, Lin Hu Xi to replace him?”
Beside him, Lin Hu Xi’s eyes widened when he heard what his446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqJg5cU9H7
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 be446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwSmeIRp9c
together with a mute. Not to mention, if he were to marry an Imperial Princess,446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF1HwTUc6b
he couldn’t take any concubine. What was so fun of staying together with446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUJVNr7Um1
someone who couldn’t communicate well with him?
He didn’t want it!
The Emperor watched their interaction then turned his head446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0E4f91fufZ
to look at Lin Zi Xuan. He had heard that this young man had some achievement446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvW5MyVVQI
at the battlefield, but it was limited to that.
There was nothing much remarkable from what he had done so446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PwrvRj6Qp
far. “What do you think, Commander Zi Xuan?”
Lin Zi Xuan raised his head then cupped his fist. “This446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpR3kbmYiP
prince will obey your order Your Majesty and take responsibility for Princess446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1qGtdKaIA
Ning.”
