Chapter 1293: The Great General Who Must Take the Blame!

"What?" Rumors? "Lin Yuelan, ask directly." What about the Ninth Princess?"

Eunuch Zhang sighed," The ninth princess was found unconscious outside the palace gate. After she was sent back to the Rain Spirit Palace by the guards, she has been unconscious until now!"

At this point, he looked suspiciously at Jiang Zhennan and asked, "General, is it really not you who did this?"

"He didn't do it! " Lin Yuelan said coldly," Because I was always with Brother Nan, he didn't have the time to commit the crime!"

When Eunuch Zhang heard this, he said, "That's bad! The little palace maid was dead, and the only one who could prove the general's innocence, the Ninth Princess, was unconscious. Now Consort De is crying and begging the Great General to make the decision.

"Otherwise, if something happened to her only daughter, she wouldn't be able to live. She might as well die.

"At that time, she wanted to bang her head against the wall.

"Now, His Majesty had finally appeased Consort De and promised to make decisions for the Ninth Princess.

"However, His Majesty has sent this old servant over to pa.s.s a message. He wants you to investigate the matter as soon as possible."

At this point, Eunuch Zhang paused for a moment and continued, "Princess, General, His Majesty also asked this old servant to pa.s.s a message, 'Unless the real murderer is found. Otherwise, this matter may really be blamed on the General. At that time, whether you agree or not, for the sake of the royal family's face, the Ninth Princess must marry into the General's Estate'!"

As for Lin Yuelan and the people from the General's Estate who could prove Jiang Zhennan's innocence, they could not be considered witnesses at all.

Jiang Zhennan's face turned cold, and he said sternly, "Don't even think about it!"

Not to mention that he had Yue 'er, he did not like Yuwen Ling at all. Even without Yue' er, he would not like her, let alone do those disgusting things to her!

Eunuch Zhang understood Jiang Zhennan, but…

Although His Majesty favored Jiang Zhennan, the royal family could not lose face.

His Majesty's most favored ninth princess had lost her innocence after a trip out of the palace. Someone had to take the blame, but the palace maid beside the ninth princess kept saying that the general had raped the princess.

So...

However, for Yuwen Longyan to get Eunuch Zhang to pa.s.s on the message, it was obvious that he trusted Jiang Zhennan.

Otherwise, if such a big incident happened to Yuwen Ling, the most favored princess, he would very likely immediately blame Jiang Zhennan.

There were only two outcomes. One was to remove Jiang Zhennan from his position as the Defender General to show the royal family's prestige. Secondly, marrying Yuwen Ling directly could be considered as preserving her innocence and the royal family's reputation.

After all, the person who made Yuwen Ling lose her virginity was the person she wanted to marry.

This could be said to be the love of two people, a man and a woman, and they couldn't help themselves for a moment.

Although it would damage Yuwen Ling's reputation, at the very least, the royal family's reputation could still be barely preserved.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said to Eunuch Zhang seriously," Eunuch Zhang, go and reply to the old emperor. Jiang Zhennan, he's my man, Lin Yuelan. Don't even think about putting all the blame on him! Also, I, Lin Yuelan, will definitely find the culprit within three days!"

Eunuch Zhang seemed to have gotten used to Lin Yuelan's " treasonous " words to the Emperor. He bowed respectfully to Lin Yuelan and said," This old servant will definitely convey the Princess's words! Princess, General, and this old servant will return to the palace first!"

"Butler, send the guests out! "Lin Yuelan shouted loudly.

After Eunuch Zhang left, Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan sat in the living room.

"I really didn't expect that something like this would happen after she left the General's residence! " Lin Yuelan's expression was not pitiful nor sympathetic.

Although it was pitiful for a girl to lose her innocence, she would not pity a girl who coveted her man. Moreover, to put it bluntly, Yuwen Ling asked for it.

She was a princess of the royal family, but for a man, she didn't care about her own safety. She didn't bring any guards and only brought a little palace maid out of the palace.

Now that something had happened, she had pushed the blame onto an innocent person.

Jiang Zhennan had never thought that trouble would come from the sky when he was in the residence with the person he liked. His expression was not very good, and it was rare for him to be angry.

He looked at Lin Yuelan and said very seriously," Yue 'er, whether or not this matter is found out, I will never marry that Yuwen Ling! At most, I won't be the Defender General. I'll live a rural life with Taoyuan Village!"

If His Majesty forced him to admit it, he would do it.

In reality, he was more worried about Lin Yuelan's soft-heartedness rather than the Emperor's coercion.

Although Lin Yuelan usually had a cold expression, she was actually a person who was easily persuaded.

Therefore, he was afraid that Lin Yuelan would agree to marry Yuwen Ling after seeing her pitiful appearance. If that happened, he would be sad.

Looking at Jiang Zhennan's serious expression, Lin Yuelan, who was in deep thought just now, suddenly burst out laughing.

She smiled and said," Brother Nan, what are you thinking? You didn't do this in the first place, so why were you worried? Yuwen Ling's own mistake caused her to be in trouble, and she still wants to blame this matter on you. Did she ask for my permission?"

As she spoke, she thought of something.

She sneered and said, "Hmph, that little palace maid by Yuwen Ling's side is really dead. Once she died, unless Yuwen Ling opened her mouth to prove your innocence, otherwise, there would be no evidence.

"It's so coincidental that Yuwen Ling is unconscious. I now suspect that Yuwen Ling is pretending because she could only marry the man she fancied if she was unconscious.

"When everything was settled, she would wake up at the right time.

"Hehe, I knew that the princess who was doted on by His Majesty would not be so arrogant and ignorant. Now, it seemed that she was still very smart.

When Jiang Zhennan heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he asked in confusion, "Yue 'er, do you suspect that Yuwen Ling was the one who ordered the death of that little palace maid?"

Lin Yuelan nodded and said," She happened to be discovered unconscious at the palace gate. Coincidentally, the little palace maid told the truth and crashed into the wall, and died. She had been unconscious all this while. At this moment, the rumor that the general raped the ninth princess suddenly spread.

"Consort De, who loved her daughter dearly, could only beg His Majesty to make the decision. There are two outcomes to making the decision. Either you are stripped of your position as the Defender General, or you marry Yuwen Ling directly. However, it was obvious that any of them would choose the second outcome."

At this point, she frowned again, feeling that something was wrong.

Seeing Lin Yuelan frown, Jiang Zhennan asked in confusion, "Yue 'er, what's wrong?"

Lin Yuelan said," I just feel that this rumor came too coincidentally and too quickly!

"What happened in the morning spread throughout the entire capital in the afternoon!

"If it was said that it was Yuwen Ling's operation, it was simply impossible. At that time, when such a world-destroying incident happened to her, how could she have the mood to spread rumors? Also, she couldn't possibly spread rumors that would ruin her reputation. Most importantly, other than a palace maid by her side, there was no one else at all. It was impossible to spread this rumor!"

"So, Yue 'er, you're suspecting that Yuwen Ling's accusation of her losing her innocence is linked to the rumors in the capital, but these rumors are clearly targeted at me."Jiang Zhennan a.n.a.lyzed.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said," That's right. If my guess is correct, Yuwen Ling doesn't know about this rumor at all."

"Then who spread the rumors?"
