How to programmatically navigate a WebBrowser

I made some LinkLabels on my Form, they are the link for each chapter of a eBook. According to that, I wanted to navigate on my WebBrowser using that labels but the browser isn't navigating not even for a legit Uri like "www.google.com".

If I click on the links displayed on my document from the browser, it will go to the right section, otherwise it will not move...

I have tried this link How can I navigate a webbrowser programmatically? but I didnt worked for me.

So, this is my code:

private void createBrowser()
{
  wb = new WebBrowser();
  wb.ScrollBarsEnabled = true;
  showText.Controls.Add(wb);
  wb.SetBounds(0, 0, showText.Width, showText.Height);
  wb.DocumentText = epub.GetContentAsHtml();

}       

private void linkedlabel_click(object sender, LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e) {
  // none of this worked...
  // wb.Navigate(e.Link.LinkData.ToString());
  // wb.Document.All[e.Link.LinkData.ToString()].InvokeMember("click");
}

I tried to add some navigating listeners but nothing... My e.Link.LinkData.toString() returns the the pages, like "0001.html", "0002.html", etc.

After create the WebBrowser with Visual Studio, check if your URL is correct. I mean, If the page 0001.html is in your desktop ensure to use the complete direction. Example:

    private void linkLabel1_LinkClicked(object sender, LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e)
    {
        //If your website is on the startup path
        webBrowser1.Navigate(Application.StartupPath + "\\0001.html");
        //OR
        //If your website is on the internet
        webBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.website.com/0001.html");
    }
