“Yes, Your Majesty is wise!”
“Your Majesty is wise!”
Immediately, all the officials in the hall shouted at the Emperor,” Your
Majesty is wise! Long live the emperor!”
The loud and clear shouts of the officials represented the denial of Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan’s ambitions and intentions to rebel.
“Everyone, rise!” Yuwen Longyan shouted loudly, feeling very happy.” Haha…”
Then, Yuwen Longyan said to Lin Yuelan,” Little girl, you’ve exposed the Black Clouds Kingdom’s conspiracy and made a great contribution. Tell me, what reward do you want?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said with a smile,” Your Majesty, we had an agreement back then. I want 20% of the gold mined. Your Majesty, you won’t go back on your word, right?”
Iron ores were used to make weapons, so Lin Yuelan only asked for a share of the gold.
Yuwen Longyan’s expression changed, and he said sternly,” Girl, do you think
I’m a monarch who goes back on his word?”
“No, no!” Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” I was just afraid that you would forget.”
Yuwen Longyan immediately smiled and said,” Do you think I don’t know you? Even if I forget, you will still remind me. You’re someone who won’t suffer a loss.’
Lin Yuelan said happily,” That’s good. Old Emperor, I don’t want any other reward. Just treat this as a reward for me.”
When the Emperor heard this, he frowned slightly and immediately asked in a
very serious tone,” Girl, are you sure? Don’t you want me to reward you with something else?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” No!”
Hearing that Lin Yuelan had rejected the Emperor’s reward, all the officials present were slightly surprised.
However, it was within their expectations.
Princess Lin Yuelan lacked nothing, be it money or status.
Naturally, she didn’t take the Emperor’s reward to heart.
Yuwen Longyan smiled and replied,” Alright then!”
At this moment, Yuwen Xuhong seemed to be puzzled.” Princess, other than the Great General, why was I the one who was decided to be the political marriage candidate?” Regarding this matter, he could not understand it, no matter how much he thought about it.
It was just that his tone seemed like this marriage was decided by Lin Yuelan.
He was suppressing his anger and resentment.
Back then, the marriage partner was clearly Jiang Zhennan and His Majesty had already bestowed the marriage contract.
It was unknown whether Jiang Zhennan’s life was really too tough or there
was anotner reason. ‘ltne real Xiao Jingyu was really unlucky. Accidents happened again and again. Therefore, the Black Clouds Kingdom had no choice but to cancel the engagement between Jiang Zhennan and Princess Linglong, Xiao Jingyu. For this, the Black Clouds Kingdom had even spent a lot of money.
Logically speaking, since the engagement between them had been annulled, the man Xiao Jingyu was going to marry should be a single royal family without a wife, or a prince or minister.
However, Xiao Jingyu had chosen Yuwen Xuhong, the eldest grandson of the Emperor, who already had a wife, to bring peace to the two countries. The eldest grandprince consort of the Emperor had no choice but to surrender her post.
Later on, Xiao Jingyu’s pregnancy was suddenly exposed, so she was demoted from the main consort to a concubine.
As for the conditions in between, Yuwen Xuhong was not clear.
This matter had been suppressed in his heart for a long time. Since the matter had already been revealed, he had to ask.
Lin Yuelan didn’t answer him. Instead, she pointed at Zhou Wenya and said,” You should ask her about this!”
Yuwen Xuhong immediately shouted,” What is going on? Speak! ”
He thought that Zhou Wenya knew about this, but she shook her head and said,” I don’t know either. I just followed Xiao Jingrui’s order and chose you!’
Hearing Zhou Wenya’s answer, Yuwen Xuhong frowned slightly. Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan with a puzzled expression,” This…”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” I don’t know either.’
She knew very well why Zhou Wenya had chosen the eldest grandprince, but she did not intend to say it now.
Because if this were exposed, it would be very difficult to catch the other fish.
“How could you not know?” Yuwen Xuhong appeared somewhat anxious and incredulous. He repeated loudly,” How could you not know?”
Lin Yuelan was a little speechless.” Your Royal Highness, your question is a little strange, isn’t it? Why can’t I not know? I don’t know everything!’ Yuwen Xuhong was unwilling to give up, “But don’t you know everything?”
” Your Royal Highness, I’ve already said that I’m not a know-it-all.” Lin Yuelan was even more speechless.” I’m just a person. It’s impossible for me to know everything. ”
Just as Yuwen Xuhong was about to continue asking, Yuwen Longyan’s stern voice suddenly sounded.
He said sternly,” Enough, Hong ‘er. If the girl says she doesn’t know, then she doesn’t know. Do you want to continue questioning her like you’re interrogating a criminal?”
Yuwen Xuhongs mind paused, and he reacted. He said to the Emperor,”
Imperial Grandfather, I was rude. I was wrong!’
Yuwen Longyan nodded.” Yes, it’s good that you know your mistakes!”
As soon as Yuwen Longyan finished speaking, Lin Yuelan continued,” The matter of the Great General and I privately mining the mine has been resolved. However, the matter regarding the rumours has not been completely resolved.’
Yuwen Longyan asked,” Girl, what do you mean?”
Lin Yuelan sneered and said,” I don’t believe that so many people in the capital would have the same dream! They dreamed that l, Lin Yuelan, was getting married in the empress’s wedding dress. Moreover, I also said just now that those who have had this dream, please step forward…”
She swept her gaze across the civil and military officials present. Then, a mocking smile appeared on her face as she continued,” But it seems that no one has stepped forward. Therefore, I’m very suspicious.. How did such rumours come about in the capital?”
