Chapter 1742: Rebuttal!

Translator: Lonelytree

When everyone heard Lin Yuelan’s words, they were shocked and could not calm down for a long time.

Behind the answers to these questions was a terrifying conspiracy.

If they really succeeded, they would accidentally kill a loyal person. Not only would they lose a capable general, but they would also put the Longyan Dynasty in danger.

Without the protection of the War God General, it would be much easier for the Black Clouds Kingdom to invade the Longyan Dynasty.

However, there was still one thing that everyone did not understand.

The Crown Prince looked at Zhou Wenya and asked doubtfully,” Princess, you said that Zhou Wenya pretended to be Princess Linglong, Xiao Jingyu. But where did the real Princess Linglong go?”

“She’s dead!” Lin Yuelan replied in a cold voice. Her sharp eyes swept across everyone present, and she said loudly,” The real Princess Linglong is dead!”

Dead?

The officials were even more puzzled.

The Crown Prince was shocked.” Dead? When did this happen? Did she die when she came to our court, or was she already dead before she came? Then, when did this Zhou Wenya start pretending to be Xiao Jingyu?”

Zhou Wenya had been pretending to be Xiao Jingyu for more than two years, but during this period, no one had noticed any flaws.

Yuwen Longyan also frowned and said doubtfully,” That’s right, girl. Since this Princess Linglong is Zhou Wenya in disguise and the real Princess Linglong is dead, how did she die?”

From a series of questions, it could be seen that Zhou Wenya pretending to be Princess Linglong was Xiao Jingrui’s idea.

Then, it was obvious that the person who saved Zhou Wenya from death row was Xiao Jingrui of the Black Clouds Kingdom.

Yuwen Longyan was furious when he thought of this.

He had never thought that the Black Clouds Kingdom would extend their hand so far. They had actually managed to rescue the prisoners from the heavily guarded prison.

If Lin Yuelan hadn’t seen through their scheme this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable to him.

The Yuwen family’s empire might very well be destroyed in the hands of a woman.

Thinking of this, Yuwen Longyan’s sharp gaze swept over the eldest grandprince.

Lin Yuelan said,” The real Xiao Jingyu actually fell to his death in the Imperial

Citys posthouse back then!”

“Fall… She fell to her death?!”

Such an answer made everyone dumbfounded.

Then, everyone remembered that Princess Linglong had insisted on marrying the Great General and then forced the Emperor to bestow the marriage upon them.

In the end, just after the wedding ceremony, there was a rumour that Princess Linglong choked when she ate. Even when she drank water, it was a choking hazard. She didn’t dare to walk because she would fall to her death if she did.

At that time, there was a rumour that the Great General was really on the Evil Lone Star. As a result, the two of them had just been bestowed a marriage, and Princess Linglong had met with accidents again and again.

The most serious incident was when Princess Linglong was so excited that she fell to her death after hearing that her engagement with Jiang Zhennan was cancelled.

Of course, these were all rumours. The next day, Xiao Jingrui appeared in

front of everyone with Princess Linglong. No one would think whether those rumours were true.

Duke Guo asked loudly,” Princess, was it when Princess Linglong fell to her death?”

“That’s right!” Lin Yuelan nodded.

“This… How is this possible?” Some people couldn’t believe it.

“So, did they switch identities at that time?”

When everyone asked this question, they were obviously looking at Zhou Wenya.

Zhou Wenya lowered her head and clenched her fists. It was obvious that she did not want to answer their questions.

To her, her identity had already been exposed. It was obvious that she couldn’t use her identity as Princess Linglong anymore. It was impossible for her to escape in front of so many people.

Since that was the case, she did not want to struggle.

Everyone looked at Lin Yuelan again, wanting to confirm the answer from her.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” That’s right. That was when they made Zhou

Wenya switch her identity!’

Yuwen Xuhong seemed to have caught something.. He asked Lin Yuelan sharply,” So, you knew that Princess Linglong wasn’t Princess Linglong then?” Then, he questioned loudly,” If that’s the case, why did you hide it and wait until today to tell us that the person pretending to be Princess Linglong is Zhou Wenya?”
