Chapter 454: Ying Zhilin is angry
Ying Zhilin became angrier the more he spoke.
But as his anger grew, he turned into feeling aggrieved.
His eyes turned red and tears filled up in an instant.
He looks so pitiful!
Wen Yan's heart softened, and she quickly lowered her head, looking away and no longer looking at him.
She was afraid that if she looked at him again, she would be tempted by his beauty again.
"It's not a good deal to be so eager. We've already divorced, so it's really unnecessary for you to do this."
Ying Zhilin's clenched fists trembled, and he swallowed the grievances in his heart.
He said, "This is a matter of the royal family's reputation. Although His Majesty will conduct a thorough investigation, it will not be made public. Therefore, you, the mastermind behind this, should be able to escape punishment for the time being. As for whether there will be a reckoning later..."
However, this period of time is enough for you to atone for your sins."
"This is my business. I have my own arrangements. You don't have to worry about it." Wen Yan lowered his head and replied lightly.
You should know that Lin Yi choked.
We were clearly getting along pretty well during this period, but now they're turning against each other!
"The Fifth Princess has been targeting me for a long time. I thought she was only looking for trouble with me, but I didn't expect her to attack you. In fact, it's all my fault that you got involved." Ying Zhilin explained.
The carriage shook slightly and stopped.
"Miss, we're here." Pei'er shouted outside.
Wen Yan looked at Ying Zhilin: "Well, there is something I still want to say..."
"I don't want to listen." Ying Zhilin said coldly, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
"Hey... I haven't finished what I was saying!" Wen Yan got off the carriage.
Ying Zhilin had already strode away.
Pei'er looked puzzled: "Miss, what happened to the uncle?"
"I'm angry." Wen Yan walked towards the door.
Pei'er scratched her head, looking shocked: "How can our son-in-law be angry?"
"What else?"
Pei'er held Wen Yan and said, "The reason why our son-in-law is angry is probably because you have gone too far.
Miss, why are you standing there? Go and comfort him."
"Forget it, just go with it." It would be better to take this opportunity to break up completely.
He passed the imperial examination and had a bright future, so he should marry a woman who was more suitable for him.
It was getting dark.
The Qinzheng Hall was brightly lit.
More than thirty people from the Lan family had been kneeling outside the hall for two hours.
Inside the hall.
Ji Xiangyun fell on the emperor's lap, weeping uncontrollably: "Father, I was framed. You must catch them and kill them to avenge me!"
Now, whenever she thought about her past with him, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Concubine Lan knelt beside him and shed tears: "Your Majesty, you must make the decision for Yun'er!
Yun'er is your favorite daughter, and they have ruined her like this. What will happen to her in the future? "
Concubine Lan is best at using her beauty to achieve her goals.
She knelt on the ground, crying sadly, like a pear blossom in the rain, which made people feel pity and couldn't help but feel sympathy.
The emperor patted her back soothingly and said, "Once I have investigated the matter, I will give you justice."
Having achieved his goal, Ji Xiangyun's body softened and he fainted on the ground.
The emperor immediately asked Chief Steward Liu to have Ji Xiangyun carried back to the bedroom and to find an imperial physician to treat him.
"I'll go take care of Yun'er." Lan Fei wiped her tears and walked out.
The hall finally became quiet.
The emperor rubbed his temples, feeling restless day by day.
There was a creaking sound.
The back window of the hall was pushed open.
The young leader Yuan climbed in through the window.
The emperor turned around and looked at him: "Here you are. How is the investigation going?"
"I didn't check." Leader Yuan walked over, took the emperor's teacup, and took a big sip of tea.
"Then what were you doing? Going to tease that little girl Pei'er again?" The emperor angrily slapped him on the butt, snatched the teacup and took a sip himself. "I'm warning you, your first wife can only be Xiao Yinghan. Don't have any affairs with me, it will affect your reputation."
"Okay, I know what I'm doing." The young leader finished his tea and picked up the cake to eat. "But old man, what if I favor my concubine over my wife in the future?"
"What else can I do? I'll twist your head off and use it as a Cuju." The emperor gave him a cold look and tried to eat the snacks in his hand.
"Xiao Yinghan is such a good girl, I won't allow you to bully others." The emperor was worried and warned again.
Then he remembered that he hadn't said anything yet. "You really didn't check on the Spring Banquet?"
"I really didn't check. Because I conspired with someone to do that thing."
The emperor was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and slapped the little leader Yuan twice on the buttocks: "I will beat you to death.
Xiangyun is your biological sister, how could you kill your own sister?"
"In the royal family, isn't it rare for brothers to kill each other?
Besides, today it was Ji Xiangyun who acted like a rude person and wanted to destroy the innocence of Ying Zhilin's wife.
I'm just helping Wen Yan fight back, I'm already being very polite, okay?"
"You said she wanted to destroy Ying Zhilin's wife? It seems Xiangyun is still unwilling to give up on Ying Zhilin."
"With her bad character, she's always had everything she set her sights on since she was little. Isn't it all because of you who spoiled her?"
The little Yuan leader kept talking and made the emperor very angry.
The young leader Yuan kept stuffing snacks into his mouth and said, "Do you think your life is too long? You are old and you get angry easily. Are you tired of sitting on the throne?
Then you have to continue sitting here, I haven’t had enough fun outside yet.”
Scolding the emperor for wanting his life to be too long.
Manager Liu shrank his neck in fear.
The emperor was puffing his beard and glaring.
The young leader Yuan said, "Ying Zhilin is the one I like. I can't let him get hurt physically or mentally."
"So, what should we do about this matter now?"
"It's better for Ji Xiangyun to marry into the Lan family than to marry someone else.
With Concubine Lan's support, she will have a good life in the Lan family."
The emperor felt overwhelmed.
He waved his hands in disdain: "Go, go, go, hurry up and leave. I feel upset when I see you."
"Okay!" Little leader Yuan, no, it should be Ji Chengyuan.
He happily climbed out the window and ran away.
The emperor pointed at the window and said: "You are already an adult, yet you are still so presumptuous and have no manners."
Steward Liu smiled and said, "His Highness treats you as his father, that's why he's so free and unrestrained."
The emperor was pleased with just one word, "Father," and all the fatigue from a busy day disappeared without a trace.
He can handle any more memorials.
**
A few days later, news came that the fifth princess was engaged to the eldest grandson of the Lan family.
All the people in the capital were shocked.
The young leader Yuan came to Wen Yan in person and told him that the matter was over and the emperor would not pursue him any further.
Wen Yan: "You are not the only one who bears the blame!"
"Don't worry, I'm not that selfless. After all, it was the Fifth Princess who plotted against us first. We're fighting back, and the Emperor won't have the nerve to punish us."
The most important thing is that the Lan family wants to marry the fifth princess to strengthen the relationship, and the emperor wants to reduce hidden dangers. Concubine Lan and her daughter have no way to refuse.
When Chief Yuan saw Pei'er coming in, he threw a small package to her and said, "Here, these are some snacks from the palace. Haven't you always wanted to try them?"
Pei'er took the snack bag and said with a smile, "Thank you, Xiaoyuan."
Wen Yan glanced at the two people interacting, then turned to look out the window.
After Ying Zhilin got angry that day, he never came to see her again.
