Chapter 1310: Argue
Translator: Lonelytree
If Ling ‘er, who had lost the face of the royal family, did not marry Jiang Zhennan, then her fate could be imagined!
No, no matter what, Ling ‘er had to marry Jiang Zhennan. She could only marry Jiang Zhennan!
Consort De took a deep breath again and said sharply, “Princess, I know you don’t want Jiang Zhennan to marry Ling P er. But now, the whole city is saying that Jiang Zhennan raped my Ling ‘er. Hehe, whether Jiang Zhennan wanted to marry her or not, he could only marry Ling ‘er. Do you think so? Your
Majesty!’
The emperor looked at Lin Yuelan with an awkward expression, but he could only nod his head!
Lin Yuelan sneered again and said,” I’m afraid His Majesty and Consort Liu De don’t know, right? Just before we entered the palace, there was a new rumor outside! ”
The Emperor and Consort Liu De were stunned when they heard this. They asked in confusion,” What new rumor?”
Lin Yuelan didn’t answer them. She just smiled.
At this moment, Eunuch Zhang came in to report.” Your Majesty, there are new rumors outside! ”
As Eunuch Zhang spoke, he stole a glance at Consort De from the corner of his eyes, then at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan.
Obviously, this new rumor might have something to do with Yuwen Ling.
His Majesty’s face darkened slightly. Then, other than his dignity, there was no emotion on his face. He said sharply,” Speak!”
Eunuch Zhang said,” The hidden guards have reported that the entire capital is filled with people saying that the ninth princess went to the general’s manor and said bad things about the general’s fiancée. She was reprimanded by the general and suffered a serious blow. After that, she walked out of the general’s manor in a daze!”
The Emperor and Consort Liu were both stunned!
This rumor might have damaged Yuwen Lings reputation, but at least it preserved Yuwen Lings innocence and integrity!
As for her reputation, Yu Wenling had always had a bad reputation. She was arrogant and unreasonable because of the Emperor’s favor. She was also rude to the nobles and ministers. As a princess, she was angry with them. Therefore, it was not surprising that she badmouthed Jiang Zhengnan’s fiancée in front of him.
Naturally, Jiang Zhennan, who was very protective of his fiancée, reprimanded the ninth princess.
This explained Yuwen Lings appearance when she walked out of the General’s Mansion.
Lin Yuelan smiled and asked,” Consort Liu De, are you satisfied with this rumor?”
Consort Liu asked in a daze,” Did you spread this rumor?”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” That’s right, we were the ones who spread it.
Although such rumors would damage Yuwen Ling’s reputation, it was better than having her innocence destroyed! ”
Consort Liu De asked again, “The previous rumors were all over the capital. Even the ordinary people knew about it. Then how can you make people believe this new rumor?”
What Consort Liu De wanted to do the most was to ensure her daughter’s innocence and integrity!
However, she knew that her daughter’s innocence and reputation had been ruined!
Which man would dare to marry a woman whose innocence had been ruined?
Since someone had proven that the man who raped his daughter was Jiang Zhennan, and her daughter also wanted to marry Jiang Zhennan, she didn’t care about the rumors. She just wanted to fulfill her daughter’s wish!
Consort Liu De immediately sneered and said,” You guys make it sound so easy. A girl’s reputation and integrity are already gone when the rumors spread. Do you think she still has any face left in this world?”
Lin Yuelan asked with a cold smile,” Then what do you want, Consort De?”
Consort De said,” Unless the little palace maid beside Ling ‘er who accused Jiang Zhennan is resurrected and says that she was lying, Jiang Zhennan can only marry our Ling er!’
Lin Yuelan was so angered by Consort Liu De’s shameless words that she laughed.
She sneered and asked,” It seems that Consort Liu De has made up her mind to marry the Ninth Princess to Brother Nan, right? Then let me guess what made Consort De so insistent. Also, why did that little palace maid suddenly testify against Brother Nan? After saying that, she suddenly slammed into the wall and died. Thus created a situation where there was no evidence.
“Could it be that she was fighting for justice for the ninth princess, so she used her life to avenge her? At the same time, this is also to take revenge on me for proposing a marriage alliance for the ninth princess, right?”
Lin Yuelan paused for a moment before continuing sharply,” I’m afraid that’s not the reason! Let me guess what is the reason that made Consort De disregard her daughter’s name and integrity and insist on marrying General Jiang, the beast that she keeps on calling?” Lin Yuelan stared at Consort De with her sharp eyes and continued coldly,” The Ninth Princess was indeed raped, and her innocence was destroyed. Was it Consort Liu De?”
The emperor was shocked by Lin Yuelan!s words. He then looked at Consort
Liu De in disbelief and asked sternly,” Consort Liu De, is that so?”
Consort Liu De’s innocent face turned even paler. She did not dare to look at the Emperor directly. She grinned and said,” Your Majesty, isn’t the person who raped Ling’er the one in front of you?”
Hearing Consort Liu’s words, His Majesty’s face darkened. He said coldly,” It seems that Ling ‘er was indeed raped, right? Previously, I thought that this was a plan Ling ‘Er came up with because Ling ‘er wanted to marry Jiang
Zhennan.’
Then, he stared at Consort Liu with his sharp eyes and asked sharply,” Who raped Ling ‘er? Tell me the truth!”
Consort Liu’s face was ashen as she looked at the Emperor. Her eyes flashed with deep disappointment and despair. She had never thought that this man would be so heartless. He did not care about his daughter at all!
The emperor also saw Consort Liu’s expression, and his eyes flashed with confusion.
However, to him, Consort Liu De was just one of his women. He would treat any woman the same.
“Consort Liu De, why did that little palace maid frame Minister Jiang? Was it Ling ‘ers idea?” The emperor asked sternly.
Consort Liu De was stunned at first, then she knelt down and insisted,” Your
Majesty, Ling ‘er was raped by Jiang Zhennan!”
Yes, Ling ‘er was raped, but the one who raped her could only be Jiang
Zhennan!
