Chapter 130: A Humans Mouth Has Two Parts

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next day, the theft of the Grand Chancellors Daughters 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 Chancellors Residence.

How can there be such a thing in the Grand Chancellors Residence? People nowadays are getting more and more daring!

I say, they stole from Eldest Miss Lius courtyard. Could it be that they were after the number one beauty?

Forget it! Who didnt know that Eldest Miss Liu had been staying at her maternal grandfathers 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 Chancellors Residence?

In my opinion, isnt there an old saying: Its hard to guard against thieves!

I think so too. The Supreme Court has been investigating for two days and has been investigating the Grand Chancellors 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 Chancellors 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 dont think so. Who in the Imperial Capital doesnt know that Eldest Miss Liu had fallen out with her father the Grand Chancellor? Perhaps the Grand Chancellor himself knows everything about this familys 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 Chancellors Residence?

1 heard that Lord Lu has finished interrogating everyone in the Grand Chancellors Residence, but the case has not been closed. He didnt say who did it.

Its not strange that he didnt discover it. After investigating for so many days, he still hasnt left the Grand Chancellors Residence. Hes 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 Lius 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 wasnt for Eldest Miss Lius accident, she wouldnt have had the chance!

Thats true. Although theyre both the direct daughters of the Grand Chancellors Residence, Liu Yaner and Liu s.h.i.+mei are worlds apart! Liu s.h.i.+mei is talented and has outstanding looks. However, Liu Yaner is the ugliest one among the four candidates for the Crown Princess Consort! In my opinion, it would be strange if shes chosen in the end!

If her leg isnt crippled, its still possible for the Grand Chancellors sake. But with a crippled leg, there was still a chance of being elected?

What are you guys focusing on? Dont you suspect why Eldest Young Miss Liu would suddenly have an affair with Silly Second Prince? Dont 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? Wasnt she the most suspicious?

H 11

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 Chancellors Residence into a smelly ditch!

There were even rumors of the Grand Chancellor fooling around with the servant girl behind his wifes 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 Chancellors 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!
