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

"Why should I feel guilty? It's you, Your Highness, who appear and disappear like a ghost. Isn't that scary?" Lin Yan wanted to break free from Zhao Yuan's arms and keep a safe distance from him, fearing that she would be on the verge of life and death again if she wasn't careful.

"So, it's all my fault?" Zhao Yuan was blamed. He ignored Lin Yan's struggle and forcibly picked her up and pinned her to his thighs.

"That's right!" Lin Yan pouted, unable to break free, so she had to endure it.

"Has your small treasury become full recently?" Zhao Yuan asked, stroking Lin Yan's cheek.

"Your Highness, you are joking. It's just some money for rouge and powder. Your Highness, you are a wealthy man. You wouldn't be attracted by such a small amount of money from me, right?" Having said that, Lin Yan raised her eyes and looked directly at Zhao Yuan.

"Your Majesty, we have agreed that the cake shop will be split 50-50. A man's word is his bond. You will never go back on your word, right?"

"You are such a jerk in your mouth!" Zhao Yuan used his fingers to play with Lin Yan's hair that fell beside her ears. After hearing what she said, it seemed that he couldn't say what he wanted to say next.

Lin Yan looked at Zhao Yuan's evasive eyes and her alarm bells rang. She planned to transfer her property as soon as possible.

"Your Highness!" Green Tea came in through the curtain.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yuan's voice was cold and his face was displeased.

"His Majesty summons you to the palace!" Green Tea lowered her head and replied!

Zhao Yuan frowned, put Lin Yan down, straightened his wrinkled clothes, and strode away.

Lin Yan patted her chest. She had never felt that the emperor was so nice and that he was of the same mind as her.

He stood at the door and looked again and again, confirming that Zhao Yuan had left the house. If he didn't go out now, when would he go out?

------

"Green Tea, pretend to be me in the room, I'm going to go out for a while!"

Green Tea was a little scared, but didn't dare to stop him: "Master, you must go and come back quickly!"

"Don't worry, I just want to go out for some fresh air. I will be back in an hour. No matter who comes, they will be turned away." After Lin Yan gave the order, she disguised herself as a man in green clothes and used her connections as a green tea girl to bribe the maid guarding the back door with ten taels of silver. She successfully sneaked out of Prince Rui's Mansion without anyone noticing.

Because time was running out, Lin Yan thought about hiring a carriage to go to her own courtyard.

How could she know that, because of the city-wide attack on Prince Rui's Palace last time, strangers were no longer allowed to stop outside the Palace, otherwise they would be attacked by flying arrows.

Lin Yan walked and stopped, but no carriage was willing to stop to take her. Forget it! Time is precious, so it should not be far.

Lin Yan felt that she was a modern soul, had an address, and would be able to arrive safely soon.

This was the first time since Lin Yan traveled through time that she was truly alone and strolling freely on the ancient bluestone streets.

The street is bustling with people, and there are shops on both sides of the street. There are constant shouting and hawking, welcoming and seeing off, walking around, looking, shopping and eating, it is quite fresh.

The people, trees, houses and courtyards along the road are very different from those of modern times. This is the real ancient market with all the hustle and bustle. I almost forgot the time while walking.

A black wild dog barked at Lin Yan. Seeing that she was about to be bitten, she ran away, turning around and around. The road became narrower and narrower. The house seemed to be getting more and more dilapidated, and the mud courtyard was covered with moss. Lin Yan finally climbed up a high platform with unknown function and accidentally threw a stone at the wild dog, which scared it away.

Frightened, Lin Yan stood in the middle of an unfamiliar road. There was no trace of the wild dog, and she seemed to have lost her way as well.

A dung carrier came over and said, "Get out of the way. What are you doing by staying in the middle of the road?"

Lin Yan quickly stepped aside. "It's over, we're lost!"

He looked at the messy alley and asked, "Which direction did I run in from?"

--------

"Old Thirteen, what are you holding in your hand?" Old Thirteen ran too fast. When he left the Rui Palace and reached Zhengyang Street, he bumped into the second brother, Zhao Wei, who was out doing business.

Old Thirteen looked at him warily and quickly hid the bamboo man behind him. "No, nothing! I'll leave first if I have something to do!"

Then he slipped away from Zhao Wei's hands like a loach.

Zhao Wei frowned, and glanced at what looked like a few bamboos. They were not precious things. Why was he hiding them? He shook his head and said he would ask another day. He had some important things to deal with today. If he went too late, the person would run away, and he would lose another thing to show off in front of his father.

Lin Yan was dizzy and unlucky. She didn't pay attention to her feet and accidentally stepped on dog shit.

"Ah!" He jumped three feet high in panic.

Zhao Wei and his men just happened to take a shortcut and rushed over from another alley. Lin Yan kicked his leg without any hesitation, and the dog shit stuck on his shoes flew into the air and landed on his shoulder with a whoosh.

"Assassin!" Zhao Wei shouted loudly, and all the muscles in his body immediately became alert.

The guard immediately became alert. He looked around but didn't see any suspicious people who knew martial arts. He glanced at something suspicious on the prince's shoulder. He took a closer look and smelled something foul: "Which one, prince? It looks a bit like a pile of black dog shit."

"What?" Zhao Wei felt so nauseous that he almost vomited. He quickly took off his clothes and threw them away.

Lin Yan happened to be walking over from another alley and heard their conversation. She glanced at one of the men and felt he looked familiar.

"It's over!" Lin Yan retracted her neck. How could it be so unlucky to meet him for the first time she came out in the Year of the Ox? It was impossible to retreat, so she decided to pretend nothing happened and sneak away.

"Stop!" Zhao Wei called out to Lin Yan, who looked sneaky.

"Did you just throw dog shit on me?" Zhao Wei was furious and wanted to teach Lin Yan a lesson without thinking twice.

Lin Yan dodged the attack with the help of her flexible body. Seeing who was coming, her heart sank. This was a tough call. She had to get away as soon as possible.

"How could it be me? Look..." Lin Yan stretched out her clean white hand.

As long as he doesn't look at the soles of his feet, even if he is blinded, there will be no evidence at all.

Zhao Wei narrowed his eyes, looked at the hands meaningfully, then looked at the face. Other thoughts instantly came to his mind, and he reached out to touch them.

Zhao Yuan would usually launch sneak attacks from time to time. Lin Yan's instinctive reaction was very fast. She withdrew her hand in a flash.

Then, he took a big step back, and completely distanced himself from the two of them. Who knew if this Zhao Wei would like to pinch people's necks like Zhao Yuan did?

Zhao Wei didn't expect that appearances are not the best thing to judge a person. He grabbed nothing and reluctantly withdrew his claws. He looked at Lin Yan again. The young and tender man immediately attracted his eyes and won his heart.

"A gentleman uses words, not fists. You are obviously a man of status and position, so please observe etiquette!" Lin Yan's eyes widened and she cursed in her heart. She had just recognized the second prince Zhao Wei. He was indeed a brother of Zhao Yuan. He started to touch her right away, without any sense of etiquette.

"Do you have a good eyesight? Why don't you come home with me today!" Zhao Wei teased with his lustful eyes.

"Brother, how can you say such a thing? With a pair of eyes full of wisdom, you are obviously a well-educated person, how can you say such a disgraceful thing? The Master taught us every day: Believe in learning, and stick to the good way until death. Do not enter a dangerous country, and do not live in a chaotic country. If there is a way in the world, show yourself, and if there is no way, hide yourself. If there is a way in the country, it is a shame to be poor and humble; if there is no way in the country, it is a shame to be rich and noble."

Of all the princes she knew, this one was the most feared, unfathomable, and his eyes were always unfathomable. So she had to use stereotyped words to dispel her evil thoughts about herself as soon as possible.

"Haha! Interesting! I like tender skinned and young hunks like you the most. You're just a little pedantic!"

Zhao Wei's lustful eyes eased a lot. He didn't expect that this man in front of him, dressed as a scholar with a green feather fan and a long scarf, was quite eloquent. Every word he said was as sharp as a sword, yet he never got angry.

Lin Yan was speechless. She went out today without checking the almanac. Getting lost was not scary. What was scary was the bastard in front of her. Even though they had only had brief contact twice, she was instinctively afraid of him.

Now nothing has been accomplished. If I can't go back on time, I will be trembling all over if I am discovered by Zhao Yuan.

There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind, it is a dilemma.

I must get out of here as soon as possible, I must get out as soon as possible, I must get out as soon as possible. I looked down and saw my shoes, and suddenly an idea came to my mind.

"Brother, there seems to be something on your shoulder... Could it be that you accidentally got some dirt on it like I did?" Lin Yan tried to save the situation, as these people all had mysophobia. She pinched her nose and took another step back.

I almost forgot, I feel so sick, I must go back and wash as soon as possible, all the clothes on my body cannot be used, and I have to fumigate inside and out. Let this pedantic man go for now, there is still a long way to go, as long as he is in the capital, he will not escape from my grasp.

"Let's go! You're lucky today. If I find out who threw it, I'll skin him alive!" He led the guards around the corner and disappeared.

Lin Yan patted her chest, asked passers-by, and finally arrived at her own courtyard safely.

"Master, you are here!" The old man guarding the gate greeted respectfully.

"Yes!" Lin Yan nodded, took out a purse from her bosom and handed it to the old man who was guarding the door. "You go and do your work! I'll come over and sit for a while and give you some living expenses and house maintenance fees."

"Yes!" The old man took the purse happily, thinking that he had sold to the right owner this time.

Lin Yan went back to the house and hid the banknotes! She looked up through the window and saw that it was getting late. If she didn't go back, once her trick was exposed, Green Tea and the others would be in big trouble.

Lin Yan finally got a taxi quickly after going out, but maybe her luck was really bad, as she encountered a traffic jam when she walked to Nanmen Street.

It was crowded and everyone seemed to have nothing to do. They just stood there watching the fun. With new people constantly pouring in, Lin Yan was now in a dilemma.

Seeing that it was getting late, the people in the palace should be moving around in the yard.

She was not worried about anyone but Xie Liuxu and Miao Yinhua. They liked to come to Xianyue Courtyard to chat with her when they had nothing to do. If they couldn't handle the green tea, she would be exposed. They were not easy to get along with.

I asked the old man driving the horses through the window: "Why is there a traffic jam ahead?"

"Sir, it seems like two people are arguing, and neither can convince the other?

They are all powerful people, ordinary people like us should just wait!

If you are in a hurry, I suggest you get off the bus, go around this section of the road, and take another bus!" The driver stretched his neck, and from the words of the onlookers, he had already judged that daring to block the street was not something that two ordinary dignitaries could do.

The security patrol officers are no pushovers. Now none of them are present, so you can imagine they have all hidden themselves.

Lin Yan sighed, paid the fare, jumped off the carriage, and prepared to squeeze into the crowd. When she looked back inadvertently, she found someone who was rushing into the crowd just like her.

"Oh my god!" Lin Yan was so scared that her soul almost flew away. She quickly retracted her gaze and hid behind the back of a big man.

Zhao Yuan frowned, as if a familiar pair of eyes had just looked at him, but he was distracted and realized that the crowd was full of people just watching the fun, and none of them were people he knew.

I squeezed into the crowd and found that I actually knew the two people standing in the middle of the road.

One of them was the unruly fourth son Zhao Si of the Seventeenth Great Uncle's family, who was older than Zhao Yuan. He was known for being ignorant and unreasonable all day long. Anyone who got involved with him would be stuck to him like a grain of rice, and could not get away without paying a price. Everyone in the royal family avoided him.
