The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich
Chapter 1857 - Chapter 1857: WhyChapter 1857: Why
After the Emperor left, Lin Yuelan and the Crown Prince had the highest status, followed by the two Imperial Princes and the eldest grandson.
However, the Emperor handed over the matter of the Crown Princess being poisoned and the workers asking for wages from the Princess of Guguo to the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince looked at Lin Yuelan and asked politely,” Princess, shouldn’t these people be detained in the court before being interrogated?”
Lin Yuelan replied,” It’s fine as long as the Crown Prince makes the decision!”
When the Crown Prince heard this, he nodded. Then, he looked at the people kneeling below and shouted sternly,” Men, bring all of these people into the court for me to interrogate them!”
“Yes, sir!”
Upon receiving the Crown Prince’s order, these soldiers immediately took all the kneeling people to the capital’s court.
At this moment, the eldest grandson was really jealous to death. At the same time, the anger in his heart could not be vented at all. His entire expression was so distorted and ferocious.
Fortunately, he had lowered his head slightly. He had never expected that the two carefully designed games in front of the Emperor would end up like this.
The Emperor was neither angry nor furious. He was stern and dignified, but he appeared unusually calm.
This was very unusual!
He knew very well that before this, the Emperor had no idea that Lin Yuelan owned the two properties of Lin Yue Pavilion and Lin Real Estate Construction Company. Otherwise, he would not have planned for two months just for today.
But in the end, it was a slap to his face.
What kind of bewitching potion did Lin Yuelan give the Emperor to be so tolerant of her? If it were any other person, deceiving the Emperor like this would definitely enrage him. Then, in a fit of anger, he would lose trust in Lin Yuelan. In that case, all of Lin Yuelan’s businesses would definitely be seized.
Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were already married. If they were to suffer together, Jiang Zhennan would definitely lose the Emperor’s trust.
Since he had lost this favour, the Emperor would definitely take back his military power.
As a result, Crown Prince Yuwen Yanyu lost his right-hand man and found it difficult to gain a foothold in the Imperial Court.
If he picked his trusted aides and spoke a few words of slander in front of the Emperor, Yuwen Yanyu would naturally be pulled down from the position of Crown Prince.
Then, the person with the most prestige to become the Crown Prince was not the eldest grandson of the Emperor, Yuwen Xuhong.
However, all of this did not go according to his plan.
This was because the Emperor was the cause of all these accidents.
The heart of a ruler was unfathomable!
No matter how flawless his plan was, it would have been all for naught if the highest authority had not cooperated!
Therefore, Yuwen Xuhong had resentment, hatred, and jealousy. However, in the end, he could only endure it!
“Crown Prince, Princess, this commoner has been wronged!”
Hearing that they were going to be brought to the court for interrogation, Zhu Zi and the others became even more flustered and afraid. They kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
As for Boss Hu and the others, other than Second Brother Hu, who was still stubborn, they had already come to their senses. Other than regret, they also showed guilt and despair!
They knew that even if the Emperor did not punish them now, they would not be able to survive if they went to the court.
If the emperor didn’t punish Lin Yuelan, they would be the ones to punish her when they arrived at the court!
Because the person they had offended was Princess Lin Yuelan!
Based on their understanding of Lin Yuelan, she would never allow betrayal, let alone forgive a traitor!
Except for Second Brother Hu who was shouting ” I’m innocent ” and resisting with all his might, the others were in a state of being at their mercy.
The Crown Prince cupped his hands at Lin Yuelan and asked,” Princess, let’s go to the court together!”
Lin Yuelan said,” Crown Prince, please!”
The Crown Prince then looked at the other two Imperial Princes and said,” Imperial Uncles, please!”
The group of people went to the court in a grand manner!
On the other side, after the Emperor and Empress returned to the palace, they were also silent. When the Emperor sent the Empress back to her bedroom, the Empress suddenly asked,” Your Majesty, why?”
The empress’s question meant that why didn’t she get angry at Lin Yuelan?
The heart of a monarch was unpredictable, the emperor was suspicious, and the emperor was heartless. This was the common point of every emperor.
Therefore, what she did not understand was why the emperor, as the ruler of a country, was so tolerant and trusting of Lin Yuelan. He did not doubt Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan’s intentions at all.
Lin Yuelan had such a large business, yet she kept it from the Emperor. To people with ulterior motives, this clearly meant that they had ulterior motives.
This motive was most likely a rebellion!
This was something that was forbidden to a king, but now, this incident was like a stone that had been tossed into the water and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only waves of fine lines.
The emperor looked at the serious empress and sighed, “Empress, if I hadn’t been to Taoyuan Village, I would have been furious and even pursued the matter. However, I’ve stayed in Taoyuan Village for a period of time, so I naturally understand Lin Yuelan’s character very well. Besides,”
At this point, his words took a turn, and he continued,” After I received that note, I sent someone to Taoyuan Village. Lin Yuelan’s development is all there. Not only is it Linyue Pavilion and Lin’s Real Estate Construction Company, but there is also the increasingly popular furniture manufacturing workshop and the largest auction house in the capital. They are all her businesses!”
After hearing the Emperor’s words, the Empress was once again shocked.
She opened her mouth, wanting to ask something, but realized that she didn’t know how to ask.
Lin Yuelan had money, Jiang Zhennan had soldiers, and they were all intelligent, brave, and resourceful people. If they wanted to rebel, they might be able to succeed more easily than the others.
Regardless of whether the two of them would rebel or not, they had already made their stance clear two years ago, standing on the side of the Crown Prince. This allowed Yuwen Yanyu to sit firmly in the position of Crown Prince. In the past two years, the current Emperor had intentionally or unintentionally revealed that he wanted to abdicate and let Crown Prince Yuwen Yanyu take over the throne. Therefore, some people were forced to do something desperate.
Of course, this was only the Empress’s guess. As for whether it was true or not, she still needed to find out the truth.
The Emperor saw the silent Empress and walked up to her. He held her hand and said,”Yue ‘er, after Yu ‘er inherits the throne, come with me to Taoyuan Village to take a look. Is that okay?”
The Empress was shocked, and her expression froze. After a moment, she seemed to be a little flustered. Soon, this panic showed on her face, and she seemed to be caught off guard.
Her expression was a little stiff as she smiled and said,” Your Majesty, you’re still in your prime. How can you abdicate? Moreover, the Crown Prince is still young and is not qualified to take on such a heavy responsibility!”
The Emperor saw the Empress’ stiff smile and sighed softly in his heart. Then, he said to the Empress,” Empress, you are tired too. You should rest first. I still have matters to attend to.”
With that, he instructed the palace maids and eunuchs,” Serve the Empress well!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
