Prime Minister Chen’s words to defend the eldest grandprince of the emperor were echoed by the officials.
“Indeed. If you really want to say that the imperial grand prince had people spread rumours, then you have to produce evidence.
“Zhou Wenya said it herself. She was the one who sent people to spread the rumours in the capital. This can also mean that the rumours from the Imperial grand prince manor were also spread by her, right?”
“Indeed!” Many people echoed.
However, Lin Yuelan said with a smile,” My lords, I don’t think I’ve mentioned anyone at all. Did I say the rumours from the Imperial grandprince manor were spread by the imperial grandprince? Why are you in such a hurry to defend the eldest grandprince?”
Everyone was speechless.
Uh, thinking about it, that seemed to be the case.
Whether it was Lin Yuelan or Zhou Wenya, neither of them said that the rumours from the Imperial Grandprince Manor were spread by the Imperial Grandprince himself.
Just because the rumours had spread from the Imperial Grandprince Estate didn’t mean that it was the Imperial Grandprince who had sent people to spread it. It was very likely that it was Zhou Wenya, Li Wenya, or someone else.
However, this eldest grandson of the imperial family was actually confessing without a fight. They did not know if it was because he was guilty and panicked or if there were other reasons.
At this moment, everyone present could not help but look at the eldest grandson.
The eldest grand prince cursed in his heart, but after thinking about what he had said, he did not publicly admit that he had spread the rumour either.
After Yuwen Xuhong figured this out, he felt a little lucky in his heart. He explained,” Yes, you didn’t name me, but didn’t you secretly mean that I was the one who spread this rumour? Since that’s the case, can’t I defend myself?” When everyone heard this, they thought about it. It was indeed so.
Therefore, even if this was really done by the emperor’s eldest grand prince, there was no conclusive evidence. Who could do anything?
Lin Yuelan looked at Yuwen Xuhongs actions and sighed softly in her heart. She then looked at Emperor Yuwen Longyan, only to see him tightly knitting his brows. Even his own brows were slightly knitted together.
She said,” Although there is no evidence, this rumour involves the innocence of the general and me. I have no choice but to investigate!’
If the Emperor was someone who was very suspicious, just based on these rumors, they would very likely be arrested for the crime of attempting to rebel. At that time, in order to protect herself, she might have no choice but to fall out with the Emperor. At that time, some of her secrets would have to be exposed.
However, it was fortunate that the old Emperor had trusted them from the beginning to the end. Otherwise, if he really did something, then don’t blame her for being ruthless.
“Girl, how are you going to pursue this matter?” Yuwen Longyan asked sternly,” Is there any evidence to prove that this rumour was spread by the eldest grandson?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” At present, I don’t have any concrete evidence. Therefore, I implore Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly!’
“l brought evidence!” At this moment, a woman’s voice was heard.
Everyone looked over and saw the Crown Princess Consort.
“Impudent!” Yuwen Longyan’s face darkened, and he shouted,” Crown Princess Consort, you are not allowed to enter the throne room without being summoned. Don’t you know this rule?”
The Crown Princess came in and immediately knelt down, apologizing,” Your
Majesty, daughter-in-law knows her mistake!”
Yuwen Longyan said sternly,” Those who enter the throne room without permission will be flogged thirty times. Crown Princess Consort, how dare you. Men, take her away!’
“Imperial Father, please have mercy!” When the Crown Prince saw the Crown Princess Consort appear, he was shocked. Then, he heard that the Emperor was going to punish the Crown Princess Consort. He immediately knelt down in panic and shouted,” Father, please have mercy. Perhaps the Crown Princess Consort has something urgent to report to you, so she came to the throne room without permission! ”
Yuwen Longyan’s face darkened as he said loudly,” Even so, the Crown Princess Consort should have sent someone to report this to me first. She should wait for the summons before coming to the throne room!”
When the Crown Princess Consort heard that she was going to be beaten 30 times, her face instantly turned pale. She kowtowed and said,” Imperial Father, please spare my life. Your daughter-in-law received important news, and time was tight. She had no choice but to rush into the throne room!”
“Oh, then I want to hear what important news you have that made you step into the throne room without being summoned?” Yuwen Longyan asked.
The Crown Princess replied,” Imperial Father, earlier, your daughter-in-law planned to go back to her mother’s house. However, when she passed by a restaurant, she overheard a few people discussing. After hearing the contents of their discussion, your daughter-in-law hurriedly returned to the palace..”
