Chapter 1270: The controversy!
Lord Yuan, who was on good terms with him, shook his head and said," Zhengguo Duke, we've all heard about what happened in your residence!"This was telling him that they would know if he was good or not.
Then, he said indignantly," That princess of Guguo is really too much. How could she rely on her status to casually kill the servants in the residence? Also, wasn't she the Great General's fiancée? How could he allow her to do that?"
He was obviously dissatisfied with Jiang Zhennan!
"No matter how badly you do, you are still his father and mother. The son does not speak of his father's mistakes. I see that he does not take you as his father at all." At this point, he paused for a moment before comforting Jiang Yunfeng."Zhengguo Duke, don't worry. When His Majesty comes, the Imperial Censor will definitely take a look at him and seek justice for you!"
Jiang Yunfeng's expression immediately became surprised." Is that good? Wouldn't that offend the princess?"
When he said this, he was obviously scared and did not dare to offend anyone.
However, he was secretly happy in his heart. He spread the rumor that the woman had killed many servants. As expected, it caused public outrage.
Now, not only were the people outside indignant at the sudden appearance of the princess of Guguo, they felt that her methods were too perverse and bloody and she was not worthy of being a noble princess at all. The imperial court was also very dissatisfied with this sudden princess of Guguo.
Humph, as long as that woman did not have the status of a princess, how could that bastard Jiang Zhennan replace him? He, as a father, could suppress her!
Hearing the Zhengguo Duke's dejected words, Imperial Censor Huang Tongfeng walked over. He said angrily to the Zhengguo Duke, "Zhengguo Duke, don't worry! Since that woman used her status to kill innocent people, no matter what status she has or who she has backing her up, I will definitely inspect her atrocity!"
Just as he finished speaking, a sharp voice shouted," The Emperor has arrived!"
"Long live our emperor!"
The officials immediately stood in formation and knelt down before the Emperor.
"Beloved ministers, rise!" Yuwen Longyan said.
After all the officials were seated, Yuwen Longyan immediately said," Dear ministers, I have something to announce. Eunuch Zhang, please invite Lin Yuelan!"
"Lin Yuelan, please enter the hall!" Eunuch Zhang shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, the voices rose and fell one after another.
When the officials heard this, they were first stunned and looked at each other. Then, some of them began to be furious.
Who exactly was this Lin Yuelan?
Of course, it was the woman who had barged into the throne room when Noble Consort Zhou and the Third Prince had joined forces with the Zhou family to rebel. She was also the heroine of this rumor, the "Princess Guguo" conferred by the Emperor! After hearing about Lin Yuelan's " great achievements " in the Zhengguo Duke's estate and hearing that the Emperor had summoned Lin Yuelan, it was obvious that he was going to officially confer Lin Yuelan the title of " Princess Guguo " in front of all the civil and military officials.
A moment later, Lin Yuelan, who was wearing a red dress, walked in leisurely.
Although they knew that this woman was a beauty that could topple cities and countries when they saw her the last time, many officials still blushed, and their hearts raced when they saw her now.
Lin Yuelan came with Jiang Zhennan.
He knelt down on one knee in front of Yuwen Longyan and shouted," Long live my emperor!"
Although Lin Yuelan knelt to the heavens and her parents, of course, she would not kneel to her host's parents. However, she still had to give face to this old emperor. Moreover, after kneeling this time, she would no longer have to be bound by those empty formalities.
"Rise!" Yuwen Longyan got someone to stand up and then said to Eunuch Zhang," Eunuch Zhang, read the imperial edict!"
"Yes, sir!"
" Yes!" Duke Zhang replied. Then, he took out the imperial edict and said loudly," Lin Yuelan, accept the imperial edict!"
This time, everyone knew what His Majesty wanted to do.
This was an imperial decree!
Jiang Yunfeng was furious.
In the Duke's estate, Eunuch Zhang had read out the imperial edict. He had only said that Lin Yuelan was the adopted daughter of the Emperor and had been conferred the title of Princess Guguo. She was worthy of being Jiang Zhennan's wife. However, he had not announced it to the world.
Now that she was announcing the imperial edict in front of all the officials, it meant that Lin Yuelan, the princess of Guguo, would be known across the world!
When Lin Yuelan heard this, she knelt down and said," I accept the decree!"
