Chapter 1531 - 1531: Panic
Translator: Lonelytree
“No, it’s not like this, it’s not like this… Lin Dazong tried his best to defend himself.
However, it seemed so weak!
Because everyone knew that one was the current Emperor and the other was the Emperor’s secret guard. They would not falsify their testimony.
Therefore, it could only mean that the Lin family had gone too far in bullying Princess Gu.
It was also true that they wanted to kill her just because of the words of a Taoist priest.
If it weren’t for the fact that Princess Gu was smart enough to secretly seek help from the chief of the Lin Family Village, it would still be unknown whether there was a Princess Gu standing there. Not to mention, today, Longyan Country had undergone major changes because of Princess Gu, and the people got to live a better life.
“If that’s not the case, then what is it?”Jiang Zhennan walked out of the crowd with a hint of anger.
Today, his subordinates found the Lin family and the Lin family village at the city gate.
He immediately felt that they were not friendly.
Therefore, he returned to the General’s Estate and asked someone to investigate the purpose of the Lin family and the Lin family villagers. He was waiting for the results of the investigation at the General’s Estate.
The results of the investigation surprised him.
He was furious.
Then, they rushed to Ni Lai Wo Wang Inn.
However, when they arrived at the inn, the Lin family and the Lin family villagers were already kneeling at the crown prince’s feet shamelessly, recounting their bullsh * t grievances.
When he heard them tell the Crown Prince that Lin Yuelan had become cold-blooded and ruthless because she tried to get close to him, a raging fire rose in his chest and spun around.
However, he did not step forward. He just wanted to see what they and those behind them wanted to do.
However, as he listened to these people’s increasingly shameless control, his eyes were really spewing fire.
Just as he was about to rush out, the Emperor arrived. Eunuch Zhang patted him on the shoulder, shook his head, and gave him a look.
If Jiang Zhennan rushed out to protect Lin Yuelan, it gave them an excuse.
He was currently the fiancé of the princess of Gu Kingdom, so he could not testify for her.
When Jiang Zhennan saw His Majesty standing behind Eunuch Zhang, he immediately came to a realization.
Then, he did not appear again.
Therefore, he watched from behind as the Lin family and Lin family villagers went from being confident to being at a loss and became anxious.
It was just that this arrogant Lin Dazong did not seem to know what was going on.
Seeing the other party come out, everyone made way for him.
Jiang Zhennan shouted angrily, ” Lin Dazong, you’re a scholar. You have a bad character and a vicious mind. You colluded with a fake Taoist priest to frame the Princess of Guguo. You tried to drive the Princess of Guguo out of the village so that you could seize her property. In the end, you were exposed by the Princess of Guguo and reported to the county magistrate. Only then did you have the qualification to take the examination revoked? What right do you have to accuse the princess of Guguo of being disrespectful, unfilial, disloyal, and unjust?”
Hah! So this was the reason why this young man was disqualified from the examination!
“No, I was framed by her!”Lin Dazong pointed at Lin Yuelan in panic and shouted,” She’s clearly the daughter of the Lin family. She doesn’t respect her elders when she has money, but she spends it on someone who has nothing to do with her. It’s all her fault!”
“The heavens are watching!” Lin Yuelan’s clear voice rang out,” l, Lin Yuelan, am upright and not afraid of shadows! l, Lin Yuelan, admit what I did. I won’t admit what I didn’t do even if you beat me to death! As for you guys,”
At this point, she raised her eyes slightly and looked in the direction of the Lin family with some disdain. She continued,” You’re slandering people and twisting right and wrong. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?”
Lin Dazongs face turned even paler, but he still did not give up. He said loudly, unwilling to give up, “No matter how wrong they are, my third uncle and third aunt are your biological parents! But look at yourself: how did you treat your parents? Aren’t you afraid of retribution?”
Lin Yuelan sneered and said,” Hmph, I’ll still say the same thing. The heavens are watching what we do! Whether it was right or wrong, they naturally understood! ”
This was a very sharp retort. If they wanted retribution, Lin Laosan’s family would be the ones to get it first.
“Five years ago, the Lin family heard a rumour that 1 was jinxed and they wanted to kill me in secret. Then, they announced my accidental death to the public! If it wasn’t for the village chief grandpa saving my life, it’s hard to say if 1 would still be alive! After the village chief saved my life, you still refused to let me go. You united with the villagers and strongly demanded that I be executed, saying that 1 would harm you and the Lin Family Village. However, the village chief’s family was kind and thought of sacrificing my blood to return my father and mother to cut off the blood ties between Lin Laosan’s family and me. However, you were still unwilling to accept it. The village chief said I’d bleed two bowls of blood, but you insisted on saying three bowls of blood.
“If it weren’t for my luck, would you be able to make a scene in the capital today and say that I was disrespectful, unfilial, disloyal, and unjust?”
Lin Yuelan’s indifferent narration sounded thrilling to outsiders.
At such a young age, she had brushed past the edge of death time and time again!
And this death threat was brought by her so-called closest relative.
“Lin Dazong, didn’t you want to sue me, Lin Yuelan, for being disrespectful, unfilial, disloyal, and unjust? Then, do you remember that a year ago, our dynasty revised the Law of Filial Piety?
“Those who adopted, sold, abandoned, cut off their parents, and cut off their ties with their children had no relationship with their original biological parents. This was the duty of filial piety. They could choose to be filial or not filial to their parents, who had no relationship with them.
“Parents, after they gave their children up for adoption, sale, abandonment, separation, cannot force their children to be filial to them. Or the children could report them to the court.”
At this point, Lin Yuelan sneered and said,” Humph, five years ago, when I bled my blood, 1 severed all blood relations with your Lin family. My name, Lin Yuelan, was also removed from the Lin family’s genealogy. In other words, l, Lin Yuelan, had nothing to do with Lin Sandou and Lin Sanniu’s family five years ago! Since there was no relationship, who should I respect, be filial, and be loyal to?”
As soon as Lin Yuelan finished speaking, Lin Dazong, who was previously so high-spirited and indignant, was now so flustered and helpless. However, he was more terrified and uneasy!
They had always thought that they would be able to easily pull Lin Yuelan down from her high position with the help of a noble in the capital.
However, God’s plan was not as good as man’s.
No matter how they calculated, they would never have thought that His Majesty and his secret guards had already been to the Lin Family Village, oh no, Taoyuan Village!
Boom!
Boom!
What was that sound?
Just as everyone was immersed in how miserable the princess of the Guguo was, a deafening voice sounded above their heads.
Then, everyone reacted.
“This… Is this lightning?”
“This… This was lightning! However, it was a sunny day. Why would there be thunder?”
Boom!
