Chapter 414 - 414 409 Not Suffering
?Chapter 414: Chapter 409: Not Suffering Chapter 414: Chapter 409: Not Suffering The second charge, “accepting huge bribes for land and houses”, was confirmed to be done by Mrs. Chen without Chen Shiying’s knowledge.
Now, another investigation has been sent to Jiangnan to verify if he really committed any crime. The two issues in Jiangnan were also related to Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Tang. Although Chen Shiying had taken remedial measures afterwards, he had no idea about the outcome.

Chu Lingxuan continued saying, “If there are no major issues in Jiangnan, the person we entrusted will plead for your father-in-law, asking the emperor to consider his contributions in promoting highly productive crops, his tireless devotion to the court, his dedication to his family, and handle the situation emotionally.

Chen Afu’s tense mood for many days eased considerably, and she was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes.

Also, thank your family members for me, they’ve been strained too.”
Chu Lingxuan held her hand and softly said, “The person who deserves thanks the most is you. If your father’s daughter wasn’t the adoptive mother of the eleventh master, he wouldn’t be so comfortable now. I managed to see your father, and when he spoke of the Emperor’s grace, even he got a little emotional. He never expected to be so comfortable.”
