Chapter 1794: Power Struggle

Translator: Lonelytree

In order to prevent any accidents and rumors from spreading and to protect Yuan Shutong from being hurt again, Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan went to the palace again.

However, the two of them had secretly entered the palace. Other than the Emperor and Eunuch Zhang, no one knew.

“Is what you said true?” It was obvious that the Emperor himself was very surprised and pleasantly surprised.” Minister Jiang, is your mother really still alive?”

Jiang Zhennan did not hide anything.” Yes!”

“That’s great!” The old emperor was genuinely happy for Jiang Zhennan.” Then where is she? With Madam Yuan’s contribution, I will give her the t.i.tle of a first-grade imperial madam. How about it?”

Jiang Zhennan’s mother, Yuan Shutong, was the one who had discovered the two mines in Longyan Country.

The entire imperial court knew about this.

Therefore, it was not an exaggeration for the Emperor to bestow upon her the t.i.tle of a first-grade imperial madam.

Upon hearing the Emperor’s words, Jiang Zhennan instantly cast a pleading look at Lin Yuelan.

In that instant, the Emperor glared at Jiang Zhennan curiously. Then, he asked Lin Yuelan the same question again,” Girl, what do you think?”

Lin Yuelan pursed her lips into a smile and shook her head gently.” Old Emperor, we’re here to talk to you about this today.”

The Emperor was stunned and asked curiously,” Oh, girl, what do you mean?”

Lin Yuelan sighed softly and said,” Old Emperor, have you forgotten that Jiang Yunfeng is still alive? As his first wife, his mother will bear that burden for the rest of her life. However, his mother has already been hurt too deeply by Jiang Yunfeng. If she appears again, it is impossible for her to become his wife again. Therefore, to the outside world, we should keep up the facade that the general’s mother is dead. If you really make Mother a first-cla.s.s imperial madam, then you’re obviously telling the world that the mother of the Defender General, Jiang Yunfeng’s first wife, is still alive. Isn’t this forcing Mother to return to Jiang Yunfeng’s side? This is too disgusting.”

However, when the Emperor heard Lin Yuelan’s words, he frowned slightly and asked,” Girl, tell me, does Madam Yuan already have another man?”

This question was quite direct.

It was because he was too direct that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan’s breathing could not help but stop. They looked at each other, not knowing what the Emperor was thinking.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” I won’t hide it from you. There is indeed a man beside Mother.” She saw the Emperor’s eyes darken and continued to explain,” If it wasn’t for this man, Mother might have already become a pile of bones.”

“Who is that man?” In fact, this was what the Emperor was most concerned about.

The fact that he could save Yuan Shutong, who was bleeding profusely, proved that he was not an ordinary person.

” He’s from the Southern Border’s Witch Doctor Family!” Lin Yuelan said without hiding anything.

“Southern Border!” The Emperor was slightly surprised. Then, he asked,” Is he very good to Madam Yuan?”

Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Very good. He loved his mother very much. All these years, mother lost too much blood due to difficult labor and injured the foundation of her body. If it wasn’t for his painstaking care and maintenance, mother wouldn’t have been able to live until now.”

Jiang Zhennan nodded in agreement.

The Emperor looked at Jiang Zhennan and asked curiously,” Minister Jiang, don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to acknowledge a stepfather just like that?”

Jiang Zhennan asked doubtfully,” Your Majesty, I don’t think it’s inappropriate. As long as his feelings about Mother are sincere!” After all, her mother had suffered a lot and had been deceived.

The Emperor pondered for a moment before asking seriously,” Girl, Minister Jiang, you know how capable Madam Yuan is in finding mines. Since the man she is looking for is from the Southern Border and is from a n.o.ble family in the Southern Border, can you guarantee that she will not look for other mines for her man?”

This was something that no one in power would allow!
