Eunuch Zhang left with some soldiers, leaving behind some soldiers to listen to Lin Yuelan’s orders.

It was very dramatic. It was supposed to be an imperial decree to punish them, but in the end, Lin Yuelan wanted to protect them.

Eunuch Zhang muttered in his heart,’l wonder if His Majesty will be angry when he finds out!’

Eunuch Zhangs heart trembled at the thought that the Emperor might get angry.

When the emperor was angry, millions of heads would fall!

Although it wvasn’t that exaggerated now, he still couldn’t bear to worry!

Soon, Eunuch Zhang returned to the palace and reported the situation to the Emperor.

Yuwen Longyan frowned and asked in confusion,” That girl protected Minister Jiangs mother just because the Jiang woman knew about Minister Jiangs real mother’s background? After that, what Mrs. Jiang said something in Lin Yuelan’s ear that made her promise to protect the other three?”

“Your Majesty, that’s indeed the case! “Eunuch Zhang replied truthfully.

Yuwen Longyan muttered,” Strange. What is the background of Jiang Zhennan’s mother that would make the girl so interested and value her so much that she would go against my decree?”

“That girl said that she would come and explain to me later?”Yuwen Longyan asked again.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Eunuch Zhang replied.

Yuwen Longyan nodded and said,” This girl is not someone who doesn’t know her limits. Since that girl had promised to protect them, the information provided by the Jiang woman must be important and sufficient! Then I will wait for the girl to come.”

Eunuch Zhang said worriedly,” Your Majesty, what about Consort Liu De?”

Yesterday, Consort Liu De threatened the General to marry the Ninth Princess in the name of rumors. However, she failed to do so. Instead, a wave of rumors that could destroy the Ninth Princess spread in the capital. After Consort Liu De found out who was the culprit behind the rumors, she was furious and demanded the Emperor make a decision.

However, if they wanted to punish the Duke’s estate, they could not say that it was because the Duke’s estate had sent four local ruffians to destroy the Ninth Princess. Therefore, they could use the crime that they had previously reserved for the Duke’s estate-participating in a rebellion.

Consort Liu only let the matter rest after hearing the accusation. However, she also knew that it was impossible to force Jiang Zhennan to marry the Ninth Princess.

Therefore, she reluctantly left the royal study.

Now, the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate had only been demoted and seized. The person who was supposed to be sentenced to death had not died. Consort Liu De would definitely not be willing.

Yuwen Longyan said indifferently,” Hmph, with that girl’s personality, would she really let them go?”

Eunuch Zhang,” With Miss Lin’s vengeful personality, it was impossible for her to let them off.’

Jiang Yunfeng looked at Wen Yujing in horror as she whispered something into Lin Yuelan’s ear. Then, Lin Yuelan agreed to protect the other three.

Then, he panicked and said to Lin Yuelan,” Princess, what did this woman say to you? It’s just that what she said to you is nonsense. Don’t believe it!” Little did he know that his expression and actions had long betrayed him.

Lin Yuelan looked at Jiang Yunfengs flustered appearance and sneered as she scolded him sternly,” Jiang Yunfeng, whether she’s spouting nonsense or not, this princess will know for herself. You don’t have to say anything!

“Also, this princess has said that as long as you explain everything about

Madam Yuan, this princess will guarantee that you will continue to be Zhengguo Duke and live in the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate. It’s just a pity that you gave up the chance! Men,”

“Princess, what are your orders?” The soldier immediately stepped forward and said.

“Since this person is already a commoner, then everything here has nothing to do with him. I don’t want to see this person now! “Lin Yuelan ordered.

“Yes!” Soon, two soldiers came over, one on the left and one on the right, and were about to leave with Jiang Yunfeng.

Jiang Yunfengs face turned pale. He no longer cared about Lin Yuelan’s status as a princess and shouted,” Lin Yuelan, you dare! Even if I am no longer the

Zhengguo Duke, I am still Jiang Zhennan’s father, your future father-in-law. Aren’t you afraid that the world will laugh at you for treating your future father-in-law like this?”

He did not want to leave the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate at all.

Even though he had been demoted to a commoner, this place was the Jiang family’s century-old foundation. It was still the Jiang family. Everything about the Jiang family was still here.

How could he be willing to leave the place like this?

Lin Yuelan sneered,” Haha, what do the opinions of the world have to do with this princess? Besides, you said that you’re Brother Nan’s father, this princess’ future father-in-law.. Then may I ask, when have you ever admitted that

Jiang Zhennan is your son, the direct grandson of the Jiang family?”
