The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge
Chapter 49: The Intrigue and Secret War Escalates
What made him feel even more helpless was that his mother, Yeon-mu, expressed dissatisfaction with his behavior. She thought Hyun Woo-ryeon was too impulsive and did not consider the interests of the family. She was worried that Hyun Woo-ryeon's actions would anger the emperor and bring disaster to the family.
"Yulian, why are you so obsessed with this case?" Lian's mother's voice was filled with blame and worry. "Do you know how many forces are hidden behind this case? If you do this, it will only make our family fall into a deeper quagmire."
Hearing this, Xuan Youyan felt bitter. He knew his mother's worries were not unreasonable, but he could not give up the investigation of this case. He believed that only by uncovering the truth could he bring justice to the emperor and maintain the fairness of the court.
"Mother, I know my actions may cause trouble to you and the family. But I can't just watch the truth about the emperor's assassination being covered up." Xuan Youyan's voice was firm and persistent. "I believe that as long as I persist, I will find the truth."
However, Hyun Woo-ryeon's predicament is far from over. In addition to his mother's reproach and worry, he also faces pressure from Lee Ji-myeon, who gradually gains the upper hand in the process of investigating the case. Not only does he expand his power in the court, he is also secretly looking for opportunities to expose Hyun Woo-ryeon's crimes.
"Xuan Youlan, do you think you can cover up everything?" Li Jimian's voice was filled with sneers and ridicule. "I'm telling you, I already have evidence of your crimes. If you dare to go any further, I will make them public."
Xuan Youlan was furious when he heard this. He knew that Li Jimian had been secretly targeting him, but he never thought that Li Jimian would threaten him so despicably. He looked at Li Jimian's cold and ruthless face, and a strong urge surged in his heart, wanting to completely eradicate this man from the court.
However, he also knew that this was not a wise move. His current situation was already very difficult, and if he clashed with Li Jimian again, it would only make the situation worse. He could only silently endure Li Jimian's threats and ridicules, but he had secretly vowed in his heart that he must find evidence of this man's crimes and completely eradicate him from the court.
At the same time, Li Jimian was also preparing for his own plan. He believed that only by further expanding his power could he protect the safety of himself and Li Yuan. He had secretly contacted some court officials and was preparing to launch a coup in the court.
"Lord Li, are you really determined to do this?" A court official looked at Li Jimian's determined face and felt uneasy. "Do you know how great the risk is?"
Li Jimian smiled slightly when he heard this. He knew that the court official's concerns were not unreasonable, but he had also made full preparations. He believed that as long as the plan was well planned, it would definitely succeed.
"Of course I know that doing this will bring risks." Li Jimian's voice was full of confidence and determination, "But I also know that this is the only way to protect the safety of ourselves and our families. Don't worry, I have made full preparations."
The streets and lanes of the capital were bustling with activity. Li Jimian's residence was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a festive atmosphere. Today was the auspicious day for him to move into his new home, and his colleagues in the court came to congratulate him. The residence was bustling with people.
Xuan Youyan was also there. He was wearing elegant clothes, with a handsome face and a look of wisdom and depth in his eyes. Holding a glass of fine wine, he slowly walked to Li Jimian and said with a smile: "Master Li, congratulations on your new home. May your new home be filled with joy and peace, and may your career be smooth sailing."
Li Jimian laughed when he heard this. He was in a good mood today. Looking at the full house of guests and the lively scene, he felt a surge of ambition. He raised his glass and drank a glass with Xuan Youyan, then said: "Master Xuan, thank you for your congratulations. I also hope that we can work together to face the challenges in the court together."
The two chatted and laughed at the banquet, exchanging information and experiences. They knew that the situation in the court was complicated and changeable, and only by working closely together could they jointly deal with the enemies who attempted to overthrow the court.
Xuan Youyan said softly: "Lord Li, I recently found some clues when investigating a case. These clues point to a minister in the court. I suspect that he colluded with some lawless people and attempted to rebel."
Li Jimian looked solemn when he heard this. He knew that what Xuan Youyan said was not groundless, and there were indeed some ministers with ill intentions in the court. He pondered for a moment and said, "Master Xuan, what you said is very serious. We must act cautiously to avoid alerting the enemy. I will investigate this matter secretly, and once we have solid evidence, we will join forces to catch them all in one fell swoop."
The two men discussed and decided to join forces to deal with the common enemy. They knew that this was a contest related to the safety of the court, and they had to go all out.
