After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

Gu Zhiyin's gaze suddenly fixed on the bamboo bed. A splash of crimson was particularly eye-catching on the light grey sheets.

She seemed to have thought of something, and when she looked at Lin Jianyue again, her eyes became full of disbelief.

Before today... Lin Jianyue had always been innocent?

No way?

Fu Yunjing had been guarding this woman for such a long time, and he even brought her into the palace. Whenever he returned to the palace, he would stay in Yizhenyuan. He had never touched Lin Jianyue.

Instead, the Third Prince got an advantage today?

Gu Zhiyin was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.

It was not until Lin Jianyue had put on her clothes and looked up to see Gu Zhiyin staring at something in astonishment that she felt so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.

She did not give herself up rashly in order to find the most reliable man for herself. Facts proved that she was right not to let Fu Yunjing get her, but she also decided to use this method to become the third prince's woman under such an embarrassing situation.

"Gu Zhiyin, are you plotting against me?" Lin Jianyue glared at Gu Zhiyin fiercely and shouted without thinking.

Apart from Gu Zhiyin, Lin Jianyue couldn't think of anyone else who would plot against her.

Gu Zhiyin sneered: "How capable am I to know in advance that you and the Third Prince have an affair. Not only that, I can also accurately predict that the Third Prince will come tonight. You are stupid and you blame others."

"It's not you? Then how come you happened to come to Jing'an Temple today?"

Gu Zhiyin: "For the sake of the prince, he wants to see you, but because of the majesty of my grandmother, he can't come directly. So he borrowed my name to come and see if you are doing well?"

"Tsk, you really gave him a big surprise. You seduced the prince and had the best of both worlds. This is something that most people don't have."

Gu Zhiyin said with a sarcastic look on his face.

"I have figured it out. Guan Shaowei must be your slave. He deliberately led us here because of love and hatred. You betrayed Fu Yunjing and ruined the reputation of the Third Prince. No one wants you anymore. In the end, you will become his possession."

Lin Jianyue looked at Gu Zhiyin in astonishment.

Wasn't it Gu Zhiyin who was plotting against me?

Is it Guan Shaowei?

She didn't believe what Gu Zhiyin said, but she couldn't find any loopholes in her words.

But Guan Shaowei was clearly hired by the Third Prince to deal with Gu Zhiyin?

Could it be that he was just pretending, and his promise to work for the Third Prince was false, and his ultimate target was himself?

Lin Jianyue did not feel proud at all because another man admired her, but was filled with anger.

He is not as good-looking as Fu Yunjing, and his status is not as high as the third prince. What qualifications does he have to like me?

Now it has harmed her even more, and all the good chess pieces she had worked so hard to lay out have been completely ruined.

She would dump Fu Yunjing and the Third Prince sooner or later, but definitely not right now.

Gu Zhiyin looked at Lin Jianyue's red and blue face, and thought that the time was almost right, so let them fight among themselves for the rest.

"Mother Hu, have someone keep an eye on Aunt Lin. We'll make a decision after we report to Grandmother tomorrow."

Mother Hu replied, “Yes.”

Gu Zhiyin returned to the room, thought about it, and felt that she had an obligation to care about her partner, so she went to find Fu Yunjing.

Wen Feng was squatting at the door. When he saw Gu Zhiyin, he stood up and saluted: "Princess of the County."

"Yes." Gu Zhiyin nodded slightly and looked at the dark room behind him: "Is the prince asleep?"

Wen Feng shook his head: "The prince left first, and asked me to stay and tell the princess."

Gu Zhiyin opened her mouth in surprise: "He went back overnight?"

"Yes." Wen Feng replied gloomily. After such a great shock, if the prince stayed, he would only be reminded of the past. It would be better for him to leave Jing'an Temple early. He probably wouldn't want to come here again in his life.

"If the Princess has no other instructions, I will take my leave. I am worried about the Prince being alone."

"Okay, go ahead." Gu Zhiyin said.

Gu Zhiyin returned to her own room, and Mother Hu came back soon after.

"Princess, how should we deal with Aunt Lin?" asked Mother Hu.

No one knew what was going on tonight better than her.

The Princess of the County saw through the situation and plotted against Aunt Lin and the Third Prince.

Guan Shaowei has evil intentions and intends to ruin the reputation of the Princess, how can he be let off?

It was Qing Cheng who led people to Aunt Lin's residence tonight, but it was a dark and windy night, and there was only a silhouette, so it was impossible to tell who it was.

And Guan Shaowei's appearance there at this time was indeed the news that the Princess accidentally revealed to him.

The purpose is to let Guan Shaowei take the blame.

The third prince thought that Guan Shaowei was the one who did what happened today.

This also made Aunt Lin believe that Guan Shaowei loved her but could not get her, so he resorted to trickery.

"There's no way to deal with it." Gu Zhiyin said.

Mother Hu was stunned for a moment: "The old princess wants to expose the family scandal. I'm afraid she won't spare Aunt Lin's life. The prince will be greatly upset and won't have any attachment to her and plead for her."

"Lin Jianyue will not sit and wait for death, and the Third Prince will not let Lin Jianyue die just like that."

Mother Hu was puzzled: "Why?"

"Fu Yunjing has never touched Lin Jianyue, so the Third Prince is her only man. Even though it would be embarrassing to be caught cheating, since Lin Jianyue can hook up with the Third Prince, there must be something that the Third Prince cares about. At least for now, the Third Prince will not kill her."

This was something Gu Zhiyin had not expected.

If Lin Jianyue was not innocent, the Third Prince might have given up on her to avoid suspicion, but now, Gu Zhiyin was not sure.

Mother Hu said, "But outsiders don't know."

Everyone in the capital city knew that Lin Jianyue was the woman whom Prince Ming loved to death. If she really entered the Third Prince's mansion, the Third Prince's reputation would be ruined. Would the Third Prince risk his own reputation for a mere woman?

"So Lin Jianyue will only be embarrassed to be seen by others in the future."

The Third Prince was reluctant to kill him for the time being, but he would not let Lin Jianyue enter the palace openly.

Regardless of her innocence or not, in the eyes of outsiders, she was once Fu Yunjing's concubine!

If Chu Chengnan wanted the throne, he would not allow himself to be tainted with the stigma of forcibly seizing the concubine of a minister.

The next morning, Gu Zhiyin left Jing'an Temple and returned to Prince Pingyang's Palace.

The old princess was having breakfast when she heard the maid report that Gu Zhiyin had returned home. She was stunned for a moment.

The next moment, Gu Zhiyin walked into the flower hall.

"Why did you come back so early? Is your foot injury serious?" asked the old princess.

The two of them stayed at Jing'an Temple last night, and Gu Zhiyin sent someone back to report.

"Thank you for your concern, grandma. I'm fine now." Gu Zhiyin said.

"Haven't you had breakfast yet?" the old princess asked, and then she told Madam Qin, "Get the bowls and chopsticks for the princess."

Mother Qin bowed and replied, "Yes."

Gu Zhiyin hesitated for a moment, did not speak in a hurry, and sat down next to the old princess.

Mother Qin quickly brought the bowl and chopsticks and served Gu Zhiyin a bowl of millet porridge: "Princess, enjoy your meal."

"Thank you, Mother Qin."

Mother Qin smiled slightly: "It's my duty."
