Chapter 1286 - 1286: Despicable
Translator: Lonelytree
Hearing Lin Yuelan’s sharp question, Yuwen Ling was shocked.
This woman was actually so sensitive.
Suppressing the shock in her heart, Yuwen Lings eyes revealed deep affection.
She said,” Sister, what secret do I have? Elder Sister only admires the Great General and will not marry anyone other than him. Therefore, I beg Sister to fulfill my wish! ”
She couldn’t say that she overheard the Imperial Consort saying that Imperial Father might send her for a marriage alliance.
If her father found out that she knew about the marriage alliance, then there would be even less hope for her to marry Jiang Zhennan.
Because his father would never allow anyone to oppose his decision.
This was his authority as an emperor and the dignity of a father.
However, if Jiang Zhennan asked her father for her hand in marriage, the meaning would be very different.
Her father had once promised her that as long as Jiang Zhennan came over personally to ask to marry Yuwen Ling, he would naturally bestow a marriage for them.
As for why she directly begged Lin Yuelan.
However, Jiang Zhennan repeatedly rejected her. Jiang Zhennan did not agree to marry her. She knew that Jiang Zhennan would not marry her no matter what.
However, if she were to ask for Lin Yuelan’s help, she would be even more naive and ignorant as a woman, especially considering what she had heard of country women. Therefore, as long as she pretended to be pitiful, she might be able to gain her sympathy.
Although Lin Yuelan was not married to Jiang Zhennan, she was already the main wife. Although she would be a concubine, the outside world would only praise her for having the demeanor of a matriarch and being tolerant. She was not married yet, but she could think for her husband and so on.
Besides, she, a princess, was obviously threatening Lin Yuelan by kneeling before her.
She had already put down her status and just wanted to marry Jiang Zhennan as his concubine. If she didn’t agree, then she would be a narrow-minded and jealous person. If word got out, it would only say that she didn’t have the right to be the general’s wife and that it was only right for her to be divorced.
Lin Yuelan didn’t know what Yuwen Ling was thinking, but she could guess her motive for kneeling.
However, Yuwen Ling did not know Lin Yuelan too well.
She, Lin Yuelan, had never cared about what the outside world thought of her, and neither did Jiang Zhennan.
Lin Yuelan looked at Yuwen Ling, who wanted to beg her in front of her and play tricks on her. She sneered and said sarcastically,
“Ninth princess, your request is really funny! Why should I share my husband with another woman?
“Just because you’re the ninth princess of the royal family, you can prove that you are willing to lower your status and marry him. Then, you’ll make everyone think that your love is so great that you’re willing to share the general with another woman.
“Hehe, stop joking, alright? ”
This method is not great, but…
” At this point, Lin Yuelan’s sharp gaze stared straight at Yuwen Lings tearful face. She said coldly,” It’s called being despicable!”
The moment the word ” despicable ” left her mouth, Yuwen Lings face instantly turned extremely pale. She shot a furious gaze at Lin Yuelan’s stunning face and said in disbelief,” Lin Yuelan, you dare to insult me? Do you know the crime of insulting the princess of the royal family?”
Lin Yuelan said coldly,” Other than beheading, what other crime can it be? But Yuwen Ling, you’re a princess, and l, Lin Yuelan, am also a princess now. Moreover, I’m the princess of Guguo, two ranks higher than you! Do you think l, the princess of Guguo, can’t give a lecture to the ninth princess who wants to steal my husband? Also, I’m not insulting you, Ninth Princess. You’re the Ninth Princess, and you’re here to be insulted!
“There were so many young talents in the capital. Instead of them, you chose a man who already had a lover and fiancée. How desperate were you to marry him?”
Lin Yuelan’s scolding stunned Yuwen Ling!
However, when she realized what was going on, she was insulted by Lin Yuelan again.
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and retorted angrily,” I’m a favored princess of the royal family. It’s Jiang Zhennan’s honor to be able to marry me. What else is he dissatisfied with? Now, you, a woman, actually said that this princess is despicable?”
Lin Yuelan frowned. It seemed that Yuwen Ling had really gone mad in order to marry Jiang Zhennan.
However, she believed that there must be a reason why she had to kneel down and beg for her hand in marriage.
Lin Yuelan remembered that it was Yuwen Ling who had lured Jiang Zhennan to the scene last time. Therefore, she requested Yuwen Longyan to hold Yuwen Ling accountable.
However, there was no news about this matter until now.
Lin Yuelan narrowed her eyes and looked at Yuwen Ling who was gritting her teeth. She suddenly thought that Yuwen Longyan wouldn’t do what she thought he would. If that was the case, it could only be said that the old emperor was cruel. Wasn’t this his most beloved daughter?
Lin Yuelan muttered in her heart. However, this was a matter of the royal family, and she didn’t want to interfere.
She just wanted to see the result of Yuwen Lings punishment.
No wonder she was so eager to marry the great general, not even caring about the dignity of a royal princess.
Lin Yuelan looked at Yuwen’s furious face and smiled faintly,” Oh, since you don’t want to tell me, let me guess what made you throw away your dignity as a royal princess to kneel down to a wild girl like me.”
As she spoke, Lin Yuelan rested her chin on one hand and looked up at the roof of the house. Her clear and bright eyes were rolling. Then, she seemed to have thought of something. She clapped her hands and said,
“Oh, 1 got it. If I’m not wrong, you should have heard that the old emperor wants to marry you off in a political marriage, right?”
When Yuwen Ling heard that, she was so shocked that she was speechless. Her eyes widened as she looked at Lin Yuelan as if she was looking at a monster. Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Fine, judging from your shocked expression, I guess I didn’t guess wrong! If it was in the past, you could choose any young talent in the entire capital.
“However, now that the old emperor wants you to go through a marriage alliance, he naturally won’t let you choose a normal person in the capital. “However, there was one exception, and that was the Defender General, Jiang
Zhennan.
“Firstly, because the Emperor did favor Jiang Zhennan, he would usually agree to Jiang Zhennan’s request if it was not too much.
“Secondly, the reason why the old emperor wants you to marry you off is also closely related to Jiang Zhennan.
“Because it was because of you that Jiang Zhennan was almost successfully framed. Then, it is very likely that the Third Prince’s party will succeed in their rebellion. At that time, it is still uncertain whether the country will change hands. Moreover, he was not the mastermind but an accomplice.
“When His Majesty comes to punish you, he decides to send you away for a political marriage.
“However, the person who was framed was Jiang Zhennan.
“Therefore, as long as Jiang Zhennan asks to marry you, His Majesty will probably agree to it out of guilt.
“However, Jiang Zhennan turned a blind eye to it and fiercely rejected you. Therefore, you know that there’s not much hope of kneeling down and begging Jiang Zhennan to marry you, so you put your hope on me, a country bumpkin who just came to Beijing and didn’t know anything.
“Because this country bumpkin might really agree to you if my heart softened.
“Ninth Princess, am I right?”
Lin Yuelan asked with a smile.
After hearing Lin Yuelan’s words, Jiang Zhennan and the butler were enlightened.
Especially the butler. He was wondering why Yuwen Ling suddenly knelt down before the Young Madam and wanted to marry the General. It turned out that she saw that the Young Madam came from the countryside and was sure that she would be soft-hearted.
As long as she agreed, there would be no problem with the general.
Fortunately, Young Madam was not an ordinary country girl who had never seen the world.
Yuwen Ling looked at Lin Yuelan in shock. She was stunned and could not come back to her senses for a long time.
“You… How did you know?” Yuwen Ling looked at Lin Yuelan with a puzzled expression.
Lin Yuelan looked at Yuwen Ling with a smile on her face. However, anyone with discerning eyes could tell that her smile was a blatant mockery.
She said casually,” wouldn’t I know? Because I was the one who asked the old emperor to do this! “This meant that Yuwen Lings marriage was her suggestion.
After hearing Lin Yuelan’s answer, Yuwen Ling was so shocked that he couldn’t move for a long time. Her expression was numb and dull, and her face was blank.
She would never have thought that the marriage proposal she overheard was actually caused by this woman in front of her.
The funny thing was that she was still kneeling in front of her, begging her.
Hehe, it was really ridiculous and ironic!
Yuwen Lings tearful face had a mocking smile on it. She suddenly asked,” Why did you do this?”
Lin Yuelan’s expression changed. She looked at Yuwen Ling with a stern expression and said coldly,” Because my man can only belong to me. Any woman who covets my man, if one comes, I’ll kill one. If two come, I’ll kill a pair!
“Yuwen Ling, you should be glad that you have a good father. Otherwise, when you drugged Brother Nan, your life would have ended!”
Yuwen Ling was frightened by Lin Yuelan’s cold, stern, and intimidating aura. She took a few steps back. Her face was extremely pale, and her expression was filled with panic and fear.
“Butler, send the guests out!” Lin Yuelan looked at Yuwen Lings incredulous and terrified expression. She immediately became irritated and ordered her men to send the guest off!
“Yes, Madam!” The butler replied respectfully.. Then, he said to Yuwen Ling,” Ninth Princess, please!”
