After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran out.
She ran so fast that Su Yingxue couldn’t catch up to her.
Noble Consort Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lin Sisi was still a person with dignity.
“Emperor, since this marriage has been called off, I feel that there is no need to pursue the crimes of General Lin and his daughter. I can choose another candidate for Ling’er’s imperial consort.” Noble Consort Xiao bowed to Chu Mingyuan.
Chu Mingyuan nodded. “You should pay more attention to Jinling as the mother. In the future, choose carefully. Don’t let such a thing happen again.”
“That’s right, Noble Consort Xiao. If every prince were to make a scene like the Ninth Prince, would the royal family still have any face left?”
The empress helped Chu Mingyuan up with a faint smile.
Noble Consort Xiao had been in a head-on confrontation with the empress for so many years. This was the first time she could not raise her head in front of her. She was so angry that she bit her lips.
When she got up, everyone in the hall was gone. Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan were gone.
Noble Consort Xiao panicked. “Where’s Ling’er? Could this child be…”
Granny Song hurried to her side and whispered, “Don’t be afraid, Your Majesty. The Ninth Prince didn’t go after Miss Lin. He said he went back to the manor with the Ninth Prince.”
Noble Consort Xiao sighed. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were filled with worry. “Ling’er is always with Ninth Prince, but he can’t learn anything from him. What should we do in the future?”
She and the Xiao family were still around, and Chu Jinling could still play like a child.
However, Lin Sisi’s incident tonight had given her a real warning.
In the future, Chu Jinling’s princess consort must be a woman with means and ability. Otherwise, Chu Jinling was so innocent and only knew how to play. How could he rely on the Xiao family in the future?
Noble Consort Xiao frowned and instructed Granny Song, “Go inform the Xiao family and ask them to choose a few outstanding legitimate daughters and send them into the palace for me to take a good look at.”
She must choose an outstanding imperial consort for Chu Jinling.
Chu Jinling seemed to have lost his soul as he walked aimlessly on the palace road. Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue followed behind him and accompanied him.
Chu Jinling also did not allow others to get close.
The two of them were worried that he would do something stupid, so they followed him.
Su Yingxue’s heart sank slightly. “Your Highness, it’s obvious that someone plotted against Sisi tonight to ruin her marriage with the Ninth Prince.”
She had seen with her own eyes how close Chu Jinling and Lin Sisi were.
The two of them would be in extreme pain with this ending.
“The Xiao family is powerful, while General Lin’s family is powerless. In addition, General Lin’s health has not been as good as before, and he is unable to go out to war. He can only rely on his past military achievements to barely protect himself. If the Xiao family makes a move, the Lin family may not be able to withstand it.”
For example, tonight, the Lin Manor almost lost Lin Ao tian, the pillar of support.
Once he fell, Lin Sisi would never marry Chu Jinling.
“Are you saying that the Xiao family harmed Sisi?” Su Yingxue’s eyes were burning with anger.
“On the surface, yes.”
Chu Yihan’s far-reaching gaze landed on Chu Jinling.
His back was lonely, like a child who couldn’t find his home.
Su Yingxue’s eyes darkened. She didn’t think so!
“Your Highness, please accompany the Ninth Prince first. 1 want to go to the place where Sisi had an accident and see if there are any clues.” Su Yingxue mentioned.
“I will accompany you.”
Chu Yihan wanted to call Mo Qi to follow Chu Jinling.
However, Su Yingxue shook her head. “It’s better for Your Highness to follow the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince is close to Your Highness, so he’s willing to listen to you. If it were the emperor or the Imperial Consort, he might not even be obedient..”
