Chapter 296

Chapter 296 Give grace and worry about the future

Lin Yuan was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied with his hands in hand.

"Thank you Princess Changping for taking the trouble, but this matter was done by Zhaozhao.

According to the laws of the Sheng Dynasty, it should be..."

Xiao Ning'an waved her hand impatiently, interrupting Lin Yuan's words.

"What should be the right? One by one, those rigid rules should be seen as more important than human life.

I don't care, Lin Zhaozhao cannot die.

Otherwise, I will, I will force you to die."

Emperor Jing was helplessly entangled by Xiao Ning'an and sighed helplessly.

"Marquis Zhenyuan, you heard it too.

I am just a royal sister, so I cannot let anything happen to her.

However, what An Ning said was a bit childish.

But there is still some truth in what he said. The Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion now only has Miss Lin's bloodline.

When it's time to be merciful, you still have to be merciful.

I am not as cold-blooded as my uncle, and I have a decisive heart."

Xiao Ning'an felt relieved after hearing Emperor Jing's words.

Looking at Lin Yuan, he urged anxiously.

"Did you hear that? The emperor wants to pardon Lin Zhaozhao.

Why don't you kneel down to thank me? Your royal brother is kind-hearted.

In the future, you must repay the favor..."

Emperor Jing chuckled lightly and interrupted Xiao Ning'an.

"Okay, I just can't bear it.

When it came to Ning An's mouth, it was like threatening to repay a favor.

If the Marquis has nothing to do, please retreat first!

Ning An and I still have something to say."

Lin Yuan had no intention of asking Emperor Jing to show mercy, but the holy will was decided.

If he refuses, he will not only make the emperor unhappy.

It might also bring trouble to the Hou Mansion.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. I will retire now..."

Emperor Jing curled his lips and watched Lin Yuan retreat.

Until no one was seen, the corners of his mouth dropped.

"Ning'an, a few days ago a palace maid accidentally touched the hem of my clothes.

I thought she was dirty, so I chopped off her hands and feet and threw them into the stinking ditch.

Tell me, what I did was right?"

Xiao Ning'an looked at Emperor Jing's gloomy face and felt scared for no reason.

Unconsciously, he loosened his grip on Emperor Jing's sleeve.

"Of course, yes.

The emperor's brother is the emperor of the prosperous dynasty, the most respected person in the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Where can such a lowly servant touch me?"

Emperor Jing looked at the wrinkles on his sleeves and smiled slightly.

"Yes, I also think that my status is noble.

You shouldn't be the kind of humble slave that you can touch."

Xiao Ning'an felt a chill on her back, so she quickly took a few steps back and saluted.

"Brother Imperial, Ning An realizes his mistake.

It won’t happen in the future. You sir have a lot of money, so you won’t blame Ning An, right?”

She was such a royal brother, and he loved her very much when she was a child.

But I don’t know why, as he grew up, the emperor’s brother seemed to have changed.

This is why, after something happened, she immediately wanted to find her mother.

If she didn't have to, she wouldn't come to the emperor.

"Yes, of course the emperor loves you."

Emperor Jing returned to normal and his tone became much gentler.

"I heard that you went to see your mother again?

Now, uncle Huang, do you often go to see your mother?"

Xiao Ning'an frowned and shook his head.

"Uncle Huang didn't go, but that annoying Su Jinxiu is now close to the queen mother.

I don’t know what it is about her that makes her mother like her so much.

Every time I go, I run into them."

This familiar name made Emperor Jing raise his eyebrows.

"Su Jinxiu? Is that the woman who was mistakenly adopted by the Marquis and raised for sixteen years?

Isn’t she close to the emperor’s uncle? Why is she clinging to the queen mother again?”

Xiao Ning'an didn't realize the deep meaning of Emperor Jing's words and gritted his teeth.

"Who knows? The emperor gave me a good scolding for her sake."

When Emperor Jing heard this, his men paused slightly.

Looking at Xiao Ning'an, he smiled meaningfully.

"According to Ning'an, the emperor is attracted to Su Jinxiu? Otherwise, how could he come forward to help?"

Xiao Ning'an gritted his teeth and said without even thinking about it.

"I was afraid that the emperor's uncle was obsessed with Su Jinxiu, so he helped her scold me.

Huh, everyone doesn't know what's going on.

Seeing how well she was doing, I was coaxed around by her.

Brother Emperor, for the sake of his uncle and his mother, would you please put that Su Jinxiu to death?

If that doesn't work, you can just scratch her face to drive her away..."

Without Su Jinxiu, the queen mother will definitely see her goodness.

"If she is really the emperor's weakness, I will definitely not let her die..."

At this moment, Emperor Jing was a little curious about Su Jinxiu.

"What did the emperor say?"

Xiao Ning'an didn't hear clearly and asked one more question out of curiosity.

Emperor Jing put away the smile on his face and looked at Xiao Ning'an.

"In the future, Ning'an will not be able to be as rude as he is today and break into the imperial study at will without my permission.

If those old people in the court find out, they will die or live again.

When you have time, go and spend more time with your mother..."

Xiao Ning'an originally wanted to complain, saying that the queen mother did not want to see her at all.

But Emperor Jing didn't give her a chance and asked the eunuch to send her out directly.

She looked at the closed imperial study and gritted her teeth.

Not only the queen mother has changed, but the imperial brother has also changed.

He is no longer the royal brother who would hold her and coax her to play.

—————————

Lin Yuan came out of the palace and went straight back to Zhenyuan Hou Mansion.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhang Ru sitting in the lobby with a tired face.

Zhou Yixiu stood aside, looking extremely respectful.

Seeing him entering the door, he eagerly came forward.

"Master Marquis is back? Just in time, mother has something to do with you."

As he said that, he glanced at Zhang Ru eagerly.

Zhang Ru frowned and tightened her hand on the crutch.

"Yuan'er, mother heard that Zhao Zhao was arrested and sent to the Criminal Department?"

When Lin Yuan heard this, he knew that Zhang Ru was begging for Lin Zhaozhao's return.

He couldn't help but sigh, bypassing Zhou Yixiu and stepping forward.

"Mother has troubled herself over this. The emperor was grateful for the small number of people in the Hou family, so he spared Zhao Zhao's life.

Soon, an order should be issued to bring Zhao Zhao back."

Zhou Yixiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Zhang Ruque thought of something and frowned.

"Your Majesty is trying to keep things open for us, just because the people in the Hou Mansion are thin.

Yuan'er, if there is a conflict between the Emperor and the Regent in the future, I'm afraid you will no longer be able to turn a blind eye.

I can only be the emperor's sharp sword. As long as he opens his mouth, he must move forward..."

It's not that the emperor has never thought of getting rid of the regent in recent years, but most of the ministers in the court were promoted by the regent.

Half of the military power was also in the hands of the regent, so the emperor was dissatisfied with the regent.

I can only endure it and suffer it.

But if the Hou Mansion were to side with the Emperor, the situation might be different.

But for so many years, the Hou Mansion has remained neutral.

This time the emperor gave Lin Zhaozhao such great grace, they could no longer stay out of it and protect themselves wisely.

Lin Yuan smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed.

"It was our fault first and we were caught.

This is also a helpless move, but my tired mother is worried about this, which is unfilial on my part.

From now on, mother should stay away from the capital and find a more secluded place to worship Buddha!

Tomorrow, I will send my mother away..."

Zhou Yixiu didn't have the patience to listen to the two people talking about these useless things, and asked anxiously.

"Master Marquis, since the Emperor has shown mercy.

Then Zhaozhao, when can you come back?"
