Chapter 1837: Request for Investigation!

When Yuwen Xuhong tried to sow discord between him, Lin Yuelan, and Jiang Zhennan, their relationship had already been broken. Then, when the Crown Princess suddenly exposed him, the uncle and nephew had completely fallen out.

Of course, although they had shed all pretence of cordiality, they still had to maintain their relationship. Otherwise, if the entire court saw that they were not on good terms, it would damage the reputation of the royal family.

The expression of concern on the eldest grandson’s face immediately stiffened, and he appeared to be extremely stunned.

However, he reacted quickly and was replaced by happiness. He said,” That’s great. It was good that Royal Aunt was fine. As for children, Imperial Uncle and Imperial Aunt are still young. They will have children in the future.”

If the Emperor and Empress were to say this, it would be a form of comfort.

However, these words from the mouth of the eldest grandson were not comforting. Instead, they seemed to be mocking and sarcastic.

Who didn’t know that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess had been married for several years, but they had never given birth to a son or daughter?

They finally heard the news of her pregnancy, but she had a miscarriage in an instant.

To the Crown Prince, this was like a bolt from the blue.

He had finally gotten pregnant, but before he could be surprised, it suddenly became bad news. He did not even know if he would have a chance to have children in the future.

However, this was only on the surface. The Crown Prince could only reply,” Thank you for your concern, Royal Nephew!”

At this moment, the Emperor, who had been silent all this while, suddenly asked sternly,” Why are you here?”

When the Emperor asked about you, he was referring to the eldest grandson of the Emperor, as well as the two following behind him, Prince Ping and Prince Gong.

When the Emperor heard this, he frowned. Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan and asked seriously,” Girl, Minister Jiang, what do you think?”

Lin Yuelan said,” It’s up to His Majesty!”

After that, the Emperor said,” Girl, if I say that I want you to investigate this matter, what do you think?”

As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, the eldest grandson appeared very anxious. He loudly stopped him,” This is inappropriate!”

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

The Emperor’s sharp gaze shot towards Yuwen Xuhong as he asked sternly,” What’s wrong?”

After Yuwen Xuhong shouted, he thought to himself,” Oh no!”

However, he quickly adjusted his expression.

Hearing the Emperor’s question, he replied,” Reporting to Imperial Grandfather, this matter involves the assassination of the Crown Princess Consort by the Linyue Pavilion and the harm to the descendants of the Imperial Family. Everyone knew that Lin Jinlan, the head of the Lin Yue Pavilion, had a good relationship with the princess of Guguo. If this case is handed over to the princess of Guguo...”

He didn’t say the rest of his words. Everyone present understood that it was possible for Princess Gu to protect Lin Jinlan and Lin Yue Pavilion.

” Of course, I’m not saying that Princess Gu will definitely cover up for Lin Yue Pavilion and related personnel,” Yuwen Xuhong continued,” It’s just that people who don’t know about it will definitely think so. Therefore, I think that it’s better for Princess Gu to avoid suspicion in this case!”

The two princes looked at each other and then echoed,” Imperial Brother, it’s indeed inappropriate to hand this matter over to Princess Guguo for investigation!”

The Emperor did not nod or shake his head. Instead, he continued to look at Lin Yuelan and asked,” Girl, what do you think?”

Lin Yuelan said in a sonorous and righteous tone,” Your Majesty, I’ve always been a person who keeps public and private affairs separate. If Lin Yue Pavilion really did such evil things, regardless of the relationship between the owner of Lin Yue Pavilion and me, I would definitely not let them off! ” But on the contrary,” her sharp eyes swept across Qiuxiang, who was kneeling on the ground, and she said sternly,” If anyone maligns Linyue Pavilion or my friend, I will not let them off either!”
