I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.

Rather than waiting for rescue, it is better to save yourself. Lin Yan gritted her teeth and pretended to be calm.

He picked up a stool next to him again. It was a bit heavy. Although he had no martial arts skills, he resisted instinctively.

"Don't worry about damaging the green tea and branches and leaves!" Lin Yan's order instantly made the two maids find their backbone. Without any worries, they threw away whatever they picked up.

Guard Li couldn't believe what he saw and was full of admiration. The woman was just as brave as any man. She remained calm in the face of danger and even commanded the troops to fight. She definitely had the potential to become a general.

He focused on dealing with the men in black in front of him, and killed one of them with one slash of his sword.

The other two were a little scared when they saw this, they came here to kill people, not to be killed.

He shouted fiercely: "Today, either you die or I live!"

The man in black, who had just been hit dizzy, had recovered. He ignored Lin Yan's resistance and approached Lin Yan's head with his knife again.

Bang! The small quilt in my hand was split into two.

Lin Yan was speechless. This was really the end of her tricks! She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, is it really God's will to kill me?

Unwilling to give up, he started looking for defensive weapons again.

...........................

"Master, I'll block it, you go first!" Green Tea bravely moved forward with a vase in her hand. If there was no other way, she could only use her body to block it.

If I hide behind my master, death will still be waiting for me when the prince returns home. It is better for me to fight my way out.

It would be a lie for Lin Yan to say that she was not touched. She never expected that Green Tea was such a loyal maid.

It's such a small room, the door is blocked, and all the things have been smashed by them. There is no way to escape. It seems that we will all die together today.

Lin Yan felt somewhat desperate. Not only was she dead, but she also implicated so many innocent people.

A bunch of damn things.

"They just want to kill me. There is no need to sacrifice your innocent life." Lin Yan pushed Green Tea aside, closed her eyes in despair, and waited for death to come again. At worst, she would be a hero again in twenty years.

The sound of swords and knives rang out again, and bang, another group of people rushed in.

The man in black who was swinging a knife at Lin Yan suddenly dropped the knife on his hand and fell to the ground limply.

"Ayan! Are you okay?" Zhao Yuan's voice sounded like the sound of nature.

"Your Majesty!" Lin Yan was overjoyed. She had never felt that Zhao Yuan was so reliable. Didn't he say he was on a business trip? Why did he suddenly appear at home again?

Guard Li finally defeated his opponent, walked over, clenched his fists, and half-knelt on the ground: "I'm sorry for failing in my duty."

"Well, go and clear out the black-clad men outside! Don't let any of them go, and make amends for your sins."

"I obey your orders!" Guard Li bowed, clenched his fist and left.

Zhao Yuan looked at Lin Yan, who was holding only half of the quilt in her hand, and couldn't help laughing: "You are really capable. You dare to use the quilt to fight against other people's swords."

"I, I have no other options, right?" Lin Yan also thought she was quite funny, so she threw away the torn quilt in her hand and ran forward to hug Zhao Yuan tightly.

Zhao Yuan patted Lin Yan's back. "It's okay!"

Zhao Yuan's words were like a magic that instantly broke Lin Yan's defense.

"Why did you come back so late? I almost... oooh..."

The strength I had just felt disappeared, my hands and feet were cold and shaking, and tears were falling down my face.

"Scared me!"

"I thought I'd never see you again!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"It's all my fault!" Zhao Yuan patted Lin Yan's back gently and soothed her in a soft voice.

Green Tea and Branches also stood by and wiped their tears.

The whole room was in a horrible state, and everything that could be used in the room was used by them to smash the men in black.

The screen fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. None of the vases or ornaments were intact. Even Lin Yan's favorite couch was now bare.

Zhao Yuan felt extremely distressed as he touched Lin Yan's pale face.

He had already left the capital and walked three miles when he suddenly felt panicky. A voice whispered in his ear, "Lin Yan is in danger! Lin Yan is in danger!"

He was really worried about his cute and adorable concubine who had a lot of money, so he rushed back with his men. Fortunately, he came back, otherwise...

It is one thing to know that someone is deliberately framing you to be unlucky in marriage, but it is another thing to see these people blatantly break into your house and commit crimes.

It was shocking, this was definitely a naked conspiracy. All the guards outside the Rui Palace disappeared out of thin air. The commotion here was so big, but the security patrols acted as if they didn't see anything.

Zhao Yuan held his sword tightly and did not dare to relax. Those bastards attacked the Rui Palace openly at night when he was not at home.

Lin Yan felt extremely relieved, as she knew her life was saved tonight.

Apart from being moody and stingy, Zhao Yuan is still very reliable when it comes to major issues.

After a while, the head guard Qu Dahai came into the room and reported: "Your Majesty, all the invaders have been eliminated!"

“Okay! Re-adjust the defense deployment. Anyone who approaches Prince Rui’s Palace tonight will be killed without mercy!” Zhao Yuan’s icy voice sounded like the god of death coming out of hell.

"Yes!"

Green Tea and Branches' behavior this time was remarkable and they were quite loyal: "You all go down, I will accompany A-Yan tonight!"

"Yes!" Green Tea and Branches left hand in hand. She still looked nervous and her heart was pounding.

Zhao Yuan then put his sword into the scabbard and led Lin Yan to Taiheyuan, his room.

The room inside the study was Zhao Yuan's private space. When he didn't want to go to any of his concubines' rooms, he would stay overnight in his own room. Generally, women were not allowed to enter.

This was Lin Yan's first time coming in, and the layout of her room was very different from her own. The overall layout was simple and elegant.

There are two rooms, the outer one is a study and the inner one is a bedroom for rest, separated by a pearl curtain.

In the courtyard opposite the study, a clump of Xiangfei bamboo is planted outside the window. Next to a bizarre-shaped rock more than one meter high, two plum trees with unique shapes form a scene in themselves. Several vivid cranes are walking freely among them. A winding stream has frozen, and some orchids are covered with snow, scattered in height and of different sizes.

Under the window is a very large desk, about 1.5 meters long and 60 meters wide, and several chairs.

The desk was neatly laid out with scriptures, teapots, cups, pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Behind the desk hangs a three-foot square painting of a galloping horse. It is majestic and the brushstrokes are sharp. It is obvious that it was created by a famous artist.

The instruments of calligraphy and painting, teacups and incense burners are placed opposite the desk and below the multi-treasure shelf. The overall style is well-balanced and well-arranged.

In the inner room, a set of wardrobes, chests of drawers, clothes hangers, dressing tables, mirror frames and lamps with carved and hollowed-out plum blossom patterns are particularly elegant when divided by a folding screen depicting a picture of thousands of mountains and rivers.

After all the attendants left, Lin Yan suddenly realized a problem and became flustered and a little worried.
