Chapter 1729: Angering Xiao Jingyu

Translator: Lonelytree

Because of their silence, when Yuwen Xuhong pointed at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan and said that they were plotting rebellion, no one reacted too strongly.

However, as the eldest Grandprince only spoke and guessed without any real evidence, many people felt that there was something else hidden there.

Therefore, no one dared to chime in.

Yuwen Xuhong dared to say that it was because he was the emperor’s eldest grandson and had offended Lin Yuelan. He had the protection of the emperor behind him, but they didn’t have the protection of the emperor.

On the contrary, the person the Emperor was protecting was Lin Yuelan.

Therefore, no one dared to make a sound before the matter was clear.

As for Lord Wang, he stood in a corner, trembling with fear.

Originally, he had offended Lin Yuelan, and he was going to lose his officialdom. However, the sudden appearance of the eldest grandson of the imperial family prevented that from happening. However, he knew that after the matter was resolved, the emperor would demote him.

At this moment, he was really regretting it endlessly. He was really regretting it to death.

If he could turn back time, he would rather not listen to his wife’s words and go against Lin Yuela. Then, everything would be fine.

What a woman!

Lord Wang cursed in his heart.

Although the Emperor was heartless, he had really doted on this eldest grandson ever since he was born. He doted on him even more than the Crown Prince.

However, he had other plans for the successor of the empire.

The Yuwen family’s country must be inherited by the most suitable person to become the monarch of the Longyan Dynasty.

Then, he would choose the Crown Prince Yuwen Yanyu.

Yuwen Yanyu was calm, refined, thoughtful, and knew how to make good use of people. As a descendant of the royal family, he had some kindness in his heart. Although this was not suitable for fighting, it was suitable for guarding the country. Moreover, after a hundred years, the Crown Prince would not go so far as to kill his brothers!

On the contrary, Yuwen Xuhong, the eldest grandson, looked like the Crown Prince on the surface. He looked gentle and refined on the surface, but his personality was also weak and indecisive especially his ears. After being controlled by a woman, he seemed to have lost his own opinion.

If he became the emperor, he would be easily controlled by others. At that time, it was uncertain whether the Yuwen family’s territory would still belong to the Yuwen family.

Therefore, Yuwen Xuhong was not suitable to be the emperor.

However, Yuwen Xuhong wasn’t willing to give up.

With the addition of his third son, Yuwen Feiye, there were three opposing factions in the imperial court.

Other than the Crown Prince’s faction, Yuwen Feiye and the eldest grandprince were there for the Crown Prince to practise his mind and temperament.

No matter how much they tried to gain favour, they could not win the Crown Prince.

Therefore, Yuwen Longyan felt a little guilty towards the eldest grandprince, who was supposed to be the heir to the throne.

Because of the marriage alliance two years ago, he slowly lost his mind. He listened to a woman’s words and targeted Lin Yuelan. He angered Lin Yuelan, and this made the emperor feel even more guilty..
