“Yes, Your Majesty is wise!”
“Your Majesty is wise!”
Immediately, all the officials in the hall shouted at the Emperor,” Your
Majesty is wise! Long live the emperor!”
The loud and clear shouts of the officials represented the denial of Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan’s ambitions and intentions to rebel.
“Everyone, rise!” Yuwen Longyan shouted loudly, feeling very happy.” Haha...”
Then, Yuwen Longyan said to Lin Yuelan,” Little girl, you’ve exposed the Black Clouds Kingdom’s conspiracy and made a great contribution. Tell me, what reward do you want?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said with a smile,” Your Majesty, we had an agreement back then. I want 20% of the gold mined. Your Majesty, you won’t go back on your word, right?”
Iron ores were used to make weapons, so Lin Yuelan only asked for a share of the gold.
Yuwen Longyan’s expression changed, and he said sternly,” Girl, do you think
I’m a monarch who goes back on his word?”
“No, no!” Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” I was just afraid that you would forget.”
Yuwen Longyan immediately smiled and said,” Do you think I don’t know you? Even if I forget, you will still remind me. You’re someone who won’t suffer a loss.’
Lin Yuelan said happily,” That’s good. Old Emperor, I don’t want any other reward. Just treat this as a reward for me.”
When the Emperor heard this, he frowned slightly and immediately asked in a
very serious tone,” Girl, are you sure? Don’t you want me to reward you with something else?”
Yuwen Xuhong immediately shouted,” What is going on? Speak! ”
He thought that Zhou Wenya knew about this, but she shook her head and said,” I don’t know either. I just followed Xiao Jingrui’s order and chose you!’
Hearing Zhou Wenya’s answer, Yuwen Xuhong frowned slightly. Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan with a puzzled expression,” This...”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,” I don’t know either.’
She knew very well why Zhou Wenya had chosen the eldest grandprince, but she did not intend to say it now.
Because if this were exposed, it would be very difficult to catch the other fish.
“How could you not know?” Yuwen Xuhong appeared somewhat anxious and incredulous. He repeated loudly,” How could you not know?”
Lin Yuelan was a little speechless.” Your Royal Highness, your question is a little strange, isn’t it? Why can’t I not know? I don’t know everything!’ Yuwen Xuhong was unwilling to give up, “But don’t you know everything?”
” Your Royal Highness, I’ve already said that I’m not a know-it-all.” Lin Yuelan was even more speechless.” I’m just a person. It’s impossible for me to know everything. ”
Just as Yuwen Xuhong was about to continue asking, Yuwen Longyan’s stern voice suddenly sounded.
He said sternly,” Enough, Hong ‘er. If the girl says she doesn’t know, then she doesn’t know. Do you want to continue questioning her like you’re interrogating a criminal?”
Yuwen Xuhongs mind paused, and he reacted. He said to the Emperor,”
Imperial Grandfather, I was rude. I was wrong!’
Yuwen Longyan nodded.” Yes, it’s good that you know your mistakes!”
As soon as Yuwen Longyan finished speaking, Lin Yuelan continued,” The matter of the Great General and I privately mining the mine has been resolved. However, the matter regarding the rumours has not been completely resolved.’
Yuwen Longyan asked,” Girl, what do you mean?”
Lin Yuelan sneered and said,” I don’t believe that so many people in the capital would have the same dream! They dreamed that l, Lin Yuelan, was getting married in the empress’s wedding dress. Moreover, I also said just now that those who have had this dream, please step forward...”
She swept her gaze across the civil and military officials present. Then, a mocking smile appeared on her face as she continued,” But it seems that no one has stepped forward. Therefore, I’m very suspicious.. How did such rumours come about in the capital?”
