Chapter 1727: Heart Attack From Anger
Translator: Lonelytree
Although Princess Linglong was the princess of the Black Cloud Kingdom and had married into the Imperial Grandprince Manor, she was still just a concubine.
A concubine, how could her hands reach so far to the Imperial Court?
However, many smart officials understood that Xiao Jingyu might have that power. Judging from the things that the eldest grandprince had done in the past two years, perhaps she had bewitched him, causing his actions to become very abnormal, such as doting on his concubine and ignoring his wife…
After all, Xiao Jingyu was the princess of the Black Cloud Kingdom. She was beautiful and talented. How could she be willing to be a concubine in the residence?
At the same time, everyone present was also clear about Xiao Jingyu’s purpose in coming to the Longyan Dynasty for a marriage alliance.
However, because Xiao Jingyu had been demoted from the main consort to a concubine, and the eldest grandprince of the emperor did not like her at the beginning, they did not seem to worry about Xiao Jingyu. A small concubine could cause any trouble.
Then, they saw Yuwen Xuhong change before their eyes, but they only thought that the imperial Grandprince was only misled by beauty. When the imperial Grandprince was tired of Xiao Jingyu, who relied on beauty to tie people down, he would naturally return to normal.
But now, when they suddenly heard that the Emperor had ordered someone to invite Xiao Jingyu, they vaguely felt that everything that had happened in the capital recently might have something to do with her.
When the Crown Prince saw the Emperor’s expression, his heart, which had been on tenterhooks all this while, finally calmed down.
In fact, no one knew that just now, the Crown Prince had a violent struggle in his heart.
After all, Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan’s private mining had touched the bottom line of the Yuwen family.
If the evidence were conclusive, even their father, who doted on them, would not tolerate it.
However, at this moment, the Emperor’s illness acted up as if it wanted to confirm the fact that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan controlled the Emperor.
Not only that, but Lin Yuelan also kept pills in her pocket at all times and fed the emperor pills in front of everyone.
At this time, some muddle-headed people would immediately charge them with poisoning the emperor.
Therefore, as the Crown Prince, on the one hand, they were the right-hand man that he had to rely on and successfully ascend to the throne. On the other hand, it was his father, whose sudden illness had acted up.
At this critical moment, it was time to test his decision-making.
Like Yuwen Xuhong, he believed that the two of them had the intention to rebel.
This scale was swaying left and right because no matter what choice he made, it would be the most unfavourable thing for him unless the Emperor personally verified their sins.
Therefore, he chose to shut up.
At the very least, he did not offend Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan, nor did he stop them from treating the Emperor. He would wait until the Emperor woke up.
Of course, there was also another situation. If Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan really had the intention to rebel, they might kill the emperor to silence him now that their conspiracy was exposed.
However, based on his understanding of Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan’s situation, they only entered the palace alone and did not make any further arrangements. Moreover, the two of them would not be so stupid as to suddenly kill an Emperor. It would be more appropriate to use the Emperor to leave safely.
For this reason, he chose to wait and see.
“Father, are you alright now?” The Crown Prince asked worriedly as he looked at the Emperor, who seemed to have regained his composure.
Yuwen Longyan raised his hand and said,” I’m fine.”
Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan and said,” Little girl, do you know what’s wrong with Hong ‘Er?”
“Ah?” Everyone was confused by the Emperor’s question.
Previously, Yuwen Xuhong said that His Majesty was poisoned and controlled by someone. But now, His Majesty asked Lin Yuelan what was going on with the imperial Grandprince?!
“Old Emperor, let’s wait until the other party is here!” Lin Yuelan said indifferently.
The other party was, of course, Xiao Jingyu!
“Alright then!” Yuwen Longyan nodded.
Prime Minister Chen asked suspiciously and worriedly,” Your Majesty, are you really alright now?” If His Majesty were really controlled by Lin Yuelan, the situation would be terrible.
Yuwen Longyan’s sharp eyes glared at him, and said sternly,” I said I’m fine..
Minister Chen, what are you suspecting?”
