Rich Young Mistress: Young Master Xie’s Dearest Beloved Wife

Xiajun Yanting shook his head. “The public discussion on it is too huge now. If we keep the Yuan family, we’re shooting ourselves in the foot. It will make the citizens disappointed in us.”

Xiajun Yanting still cared very much about the sentiments of the citizens.

He vaguely remembered that a woman once told him, “Ting, you are Majesty Kang. You are born in the imperial family, so you have the duty of protecting the citizens. They are also your people. As the heir, you must have the awareness and take responsibility for this!”

“Ting, if you hurt the citizens, you would also hurt yourself. Loving the citizens is as good as loving yourself. I hope that with you around, Country A can prosper and continue to grow stronger!”

“Ting, when we have children next time, you must give our child a peaceful and strong country, where everyone can live and work happily and lead a good life…”

…

As Xiajun Yanting thought about it, his expression turned sorrowful.

Hah. It was that woman, his beloved fianceé. However, she fell in love with his older brother in the end. This was the thing he could not stand the most.

He slammed his hand down on the table. Since she betrayed him, then he would do things that went against her wishes. Hah…

The advisor did not know what Majesty Kang was thinking. He still thought he was worried about this issue, so he continued to persuade him and say, “Your Majesty, these few photos can’t prove anything. Even if there were firearms, we could make the firearms disappear and send someone to check again. If nothing could be found, we can still prove the Yuan family’s innocence. Furthermore, we can say that the photo was edited.”

Another advisor said, “Lu Suyan is the key. She was the one who said at the start that the Lu family might be involved in the smuggling of firearms. If we bring her out and make her change her statement, we can clear things up too.”

Xiajun Yanting listened to his advisors discussing, and time passed bit by bit. In the end, he slammed his hand on the table and said, “I’ll leave this to you all. Keep the Yuan family for now, but we must observe them carefully. For protecting them this time, we will take seventy percent of their profits.”

The advisor’s face changed a little. In that way, the Yuan family would only be left with enough money for their basic living expenses. The rest of their money would all be given to Majesty Kang.

However, at this critical juncture, the Yuan family had no other choice.

Two days later, nothing much happened. However, the news was slowly being suppressed. The leader of the Eastern Wave Network was also called over to have ‘tea’ with the officials.

However, the leader of the Eastern Wave Network insisted on reporting the news and refused to budge.

In the end, a new wave of counter news emerged. It said that Miss Lu was a power-hungry woman who was in love with Young Master Han and framed the Yuan family on purpose to harm Miss Yuan.

Some experts even pointed out that the photos had been edited, so they were not real.

Right after that, a new photo emerged on the web. It was a photo of the same place in the Yuan family, but it was empty all around.

Everyone was shocked and felt that this was a huge joke. In the end, they did not know who they should believe.

“Seriously? What a false alarm. They’re playing with us, aren’t they?”

“Eastern Wave Network really went all out to increase their viewership and number of hits.”

“Who knows what’s real or fake now? We’re just small fish in a big sea. If the higher-ups say it’s true, then it’s true. If the higher-ups say it’s false, then it’ll be false.”

“Can this be treated like a joke? If smuggling firearms can be covered up by the higher-ups, then what’s the use of keeping rules and laws? Anyone can violate them.”

“Hmph. You make it sound so nice. What do you mean anyone can violate the law? The key is to have as much power as the Yuan family to even gain the protection of the higher-ups.”

“I think such a dignified and reputable household like the Yuan family wouldn’t have done such a thing.”
