Chapter 130: A Human’s Mouth Has Two Parts
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day, the theft of the Grand Chancellor’s Daughter’s courtyard broke out in the streets and alleys. After the confirmation of the Supreme Court, the case became a known fact.
Rumors spread from the morning to the evening, and it became more and more popular. There were all kinds of rumors. However, human nature was the same in any era. They all hated the rich, so the general trend of public opinion was nothing more than belittling the Grand Chancellor’s Residence.
“How can there be such a thing in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence? People nowadays are getting more and more daring!”
“I say, they stole from Eldest Miss Liu’s courtyard. Could it be that they were after the number one beauty?”
“Forget it! Who didn’t know that Eldest Miss Liu had been staying at her maternal grandfather’s house for nearly a month? She had only discovered it when she returned. According to her nanny, the courtyard had been robbed a few days ago!”
On the third day, after word of mouth, this matter had become:
“By the way, do you think ordinary people have the guts to steal from the Grand Chancellor’s Residence?”
“In my opinion, isn’t there an old saying: It’s hard to guard against thieves!”
“I think so too. The Supreme Court has been investigating for two days and has been investigating the Grand Chancellor’s Residence. They did not say that they suspected there were traces of foreign thieves breaking in. Besides, if it was an outsider who dared to think about the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, the Grand Chancellor would have long been unable to tolerate it. Why would this matter only erupt after Eldest Miss Liu reported it to the Supreme Court?”
“I don’t think so. Who in the Imperial Capital doesn’t know that Eldest Miss Liu had fallen out with her father the Grand Chancellor? Perhaps the Grand Chancellor himself knows everything about this family’s internal affairs and is only s.h.i.+elding that thief!”
On the fourth day…
“Have you found out about the theft of the Grand Chancellor’s Residence?”
“1 heard that Lord Lu has finished interrogating everyone in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, but the case has not been closed. He didn’t say who did it.”
“It’s not strange that he didn’t discover it. After investigating for so many days, he still hasn’t left the Grand Chancellor’s Residence. He’s definitely done it by a thief. Moreover, he must have controlled the power of the people in the residence and covered the sky with one hand!”
The tone changed again.
“Have you heard? Second Young Miss Liu’s leg is broken!”
“Eh? Are you talking about the Second Young Miss of the Liu family who had taken over the position of the Eldest Young Miss of the Liu family after she lost her virginity?”
“The one who was chosen as the candidate for the Crown Princess. If it wasn’t for Eldest Miss Liu’s accident, she wouldn’t have had the chance!”
“That’s true. Although they’re both the direct daughters of the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, Liu Yan’er and Liu s.h.i.+mei are worlds apart! Liu s.h.i.+mei is talented and has outstanding looks. However, Liu Yan’er is the ugliest one among the four candidates for the Crown Princess Consort! In my opinion, it would be strange if she’s chosen in the end!”
“If her leg isn’t crippled, it’s still possible for the Grand Chancellor’s sake. But with a crippled leg, there was still a chance of being elected?”
“What are you guys focusing on? Don’t you suspect why Eldest Young Miss Liu would suddenly have an affair with Silly Second Prince? Don’t you think that Eldest Miss Liu, who can become the Crown Princess and is publicly acknowledged as a talented woman in the Imperial Capital, would be so brainless as to give up the position of Crown Princess that is within reach and choose King Dun Yu? Have you never thought that Eldest Miss Liu was set up? Who do you think is the final beneficiary of this incident? Wasn’t she the most suspicious?”

These were all good rumors, but even the better ones had already gone out of control, let alone those vulgar ones. They simply slandered the Grand Chancellor’s Residence into a smelly ditch!
There were even rumors of the Grand Chancellor fooling around with the servant girl behind his wife’s back, and of his wife having an affair with the guard.
There were two parts of the human mouth, and when the upper and lower lips touched, what was so strange about right and wrong being reversed?
The matter was getting more and more serious. The civil and military officials had also heard about it. However, as officials of the same court, and many of the officials were the Grand Chancellor’s students, they would more or less give the Grand Chancellor face and keep their mouths shut. They would not laugh in front of him.
However, the news still reached the Emperor!
