Chapter 464 Palace Secrets
Hua Lan also glanced at everyone in the Lin Mansion and no longer hid anything.
"Lin Wentao... has some talent, but not even a fraction of what I have."
"His Lin family had long since taken refuge with Xiyu, using their business opportunities to build an information network for Xiyu... and provide Tang Zhuo with information on the movements of Dayan's officials."
"Tang Zhuo provided him with blueprints for golden bells, weapons, and mechanisms that had been modified by the commoner girl's father or the commoner girl... and ordered him to mass-produce them throughout Dayan..."
She then looked at Princess Taiping and Lin Fujia. "And they are responsible for sending the woman wearing this golden bell to the residences of many important officials of Dayan, controlling them to work for Xiyu... Waiting for the right time, they will cooperate internally and externally to overthrow Dayan!"
The hall fell into silence again.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Princess Taiping in disbelief.
It is understandable that the Lin family is greedy for selling out their country for personal gain, but what about her?
She was the legitimate princess of Dayan! She was actually colluding with foreign enemies, destroying her own foundation and paving the way for Xiyu?!
Yan Shixu glanced at Lin Fujia with disgust, and finally his eyes fell on Princess Taiping, deep and unfathomable.
Amidst the shocked, condemning, incredulous, and sneering gazes of the crowd, Princess Taiping suddenly raised her head and burst into laughter.
"Your Majesty is so foolish! He favors his concubine over his wife, neglects the Empress, and drives Zhen Rong into a dead end! She was such a good person, someone who loved you so much! What happened to her in the end? It's you! It was you and Wen Li'er who killed her! You also killed Jia He!"
"The woman I longed for, but could never obtain, fell terribly in love with you, a tyrant! She gave you everything, exhausted all her energy for you, but in the end, you cast her aside like a worn-out shoe! The treasure I had worked so hard to obtain, the one I held so dearly in my hands, was also killed by you!"
"What I, Yan Shishu, did today was nothing more than seeking belated justice for my beloved! To avenge her and my daughter! What have I done wrong?!"
This "one stone" has more than caused a thousand waves!
It simply blew up the entire Hanyuan Hall!
Everyone in the hall felt their heads buzzing, and a chill rushed from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, making their scalps explode instantly!
Thank you, Queen! Princess Taiping actually...actually... treated her...!
This shocking secret is even more frightening than Hua Lan's own abilities!
All the officials, eunuchs, and guards present were pale as death, wishing they could poke out their ears or simply faint!
After hearing such palace secrets and the princess's love affair, how could they survive?
At this moment, outside the heavy vermilion lacquer gate of Hanyuan Hall.
The son-in-law, Chen Lisheng, who had just returned to the capital after a long journey, was bringing his three children with Princess Taiping.
The fifteen-year-old eldest son Chen Moxun, the thirteen-year-old second son Chen Mojin, and the ten-year-old youngest daughter Chen Yanhui - stood outside the hall waiting for the message.
The sharp and piercing roar of Princess Taiping in the palace penetrated the tightly closed palace door, pierced into the ears of several people, and pierced into their hearts!
Chen Lisheng stared quietly at the closed door and closed his eyes.
The thing he was most worried about and most reluctant to face was finally exposed.
She actually… disregarded the dignity of her three children and revealed this secret love affair in front of the emperor and in front of everyone, which was enough to make the children lose face for the rest of their lives!
Chen Lisheng had never hated himself so much as he did at this moment. He hated himself for not killing her earlier, but choosing to take the children away.
Fifteen-year-old Chen Moxun stood quietly behind his father.
At this moment, all the color drained from his handsome face, and his pupils shrank sharply due to extreme shock and fear.
He looked at the tightly closed palace door in disbelief, his mother's frantic voice still echoing in his ears...
Empress Xie? The woman my mother deeply loved...?
She collaborated with the enemy and committed treason... just to... avenge Empress Xie?!
The huge amount of information and subversive cognition almost overwhelmed his sanity.
Thirteen-year-old Chen Mojin's face didn't look much better either.
He covered his mouth to suppress a horrified whimper.
The youngest is Chen Yanhui, who is ten years old and cannot fully understand this complicated relationship.
But the overwhelming hatred and madness in her mother's words, her father's instantly collapsed back, and the pale faces of her two brothers all made her feel overwhelmed with fear.
She subconsciously clutched the corner of her father's clothes tightly, and her small body trembled uncontrollably.
Inside the hall.
After Princess Taiping's roar, there was a suffocating silence.
Yan Shixu sat upright on the dragon throne. He did not get angry because of Princess Taiping's accusations, but the invisible imperial pressure was more frightening than the wrath of thunder.
The air in the entire hall seemed to have frozen into ice, so heavy that it was impossible to breathe.
After Princess Taiping shouted those words, she seemed to have used up all her strength.
Her chest heaved violently, her eyes were unfocused, and she was filled with a mixture of despair and pleasure, wanting to destroy herself and everything else.
"What a 'why's wrong with that?'"
Yan Shixu finally spoke: "He colluded with the enemy country, intending to overthrow the country; he used the Golden Bell technique to confuse the court; and he even roared in front of the emperor, slandering the emperor and the queen..."
"How can you dismiss all the evidence of your crimes with just 'revenge'? You have failed your grandmother and mother, failed the dignity of Princess Dayan, and failed the people of the world!"
"Someone come here!" Yan Shixu's voice suddenly turned harsh.
The palace door burst open, and the elite guards who had been waiting for battle rushed in.
Outside the palace, Chen Lisheng protected his three children behind him and just watched Princess Taiping being forcibly suppressed.
The three children snuggled together tightly.
"Capture all of the traitors! Take them to the Sky Prison and keep them under strict guard! Wait for the three judges to conduct a joint trial, identify the remaining accomplices, and execute them according to law!"
"Yes!" The guards responded in unison.
The elite soldiers immediately stepped forward and mercilessly carried Princess Taiping, the Lin family, and the Xiyu envoys who were lying on the ground, and filed out one after another.
Princess Taiping struggled and screamed like a mad woman.
She looked up in embarrassment and met Chen Lisheng's gaze, and saw the three children behind him.
Like being struck by lightning.
Looking at the fearful looks the children cast at her, her face gradually distorted.
Originally, she had treated them sincerely, so how could they be afraid of her!
She originally didn't expect anything! She just wanted her and her husband to have a few children who were related to her by blood! To watch over her, accompany her, and be her best friend for the rest of her life, that was enough!
But these people, each and every one of them was a bad embryo, who had harmed her to such an extent! She was filled with hatred and could not rest in peace in her grave!
These people deserve to die! They should all be buried with her Arong!!!
Chen Lisheng looked at the crazy expression on his wife's face and turned his eyes away.
The three children clung to their father, not daring to look at their mother's ferocious expression.
It was not until Princess Taiping's figure disappeared in the deep corridor outside the palace that Chen Lisheng felt as if his spine had been pulled out. He staggered and only managed to avoid falling down thanks to the support of his eldest son Chen Moxun.
