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

Although he was the last one to react, he was the first to leave, leaving the rest of the people speechless.

Xie Liuxu touched the silver in her pocket and said she would be lying if she said she wasn't excited. After Mu Xueli left, she also said goodbye. Miao Yinhua also followed.

After everyone left, Lin Yan closed the gate and counted the money: "Although it's not much, a mosquito is still meat!"

"Everyone who serves me in the courtyard will be rewarded with five taels each, and green tea and branches and leaves, each of you will get fifty taels, thank you for your hard work during this period."

Green Tea, Zhiye was so surprised that he was speechless. He immediately knelt down excitedly and thanked him.

"In the future, tell them about what happened in my yard, and keep your mouths shut. You will get the benefits. If I find out that you spread rumors about what happened in my yard, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless. You will come in vertically and leave horizontally." Lin Yan's eyes flashed with a knife. Before leaving the yard, she must ensure absolute safety and must not let down her guard at the critical moment.

For the first time, Green Tea and Branches discovered that Lin Yan had such a majestic and domineering side.

Zhao Yuan tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. He was not that sad about the one thousand taels, he just wanted to make the women happy.

Although Lin Yan said she liked me, she was a coward who would not act until she saw the rabbit. With her status and position, it was absolutely impossible for her to sit on the throne of the princess.

Her personality is not suitable, but she has a lot of weird ideas in her head. When she was playing cards just now, the look in her eyes made her look like a casino veteran.

……

After the next day

"Third brother, third brother..."

"Haha, third brother, Old Thirteen is here to see you. He's acting so sneaky. Did he do something wrong again?" Zhao Lei pointed in the direction of Old Thirteen and joked with a smile.

Zhao Yuan frowned and thought to himself, this guy took all the money yesterday, and he came to me again today, is he going to give me money? But from what I know about him, this guy loves money ten times more than I do. He definitely won't be so kind, what on earth is he coming to me for?

"Is something wrong?"

"Well! Third brother, I'll treat you to milk tea!"

"Anyone who sees it gets a share!" Zhao Lei came up with a sharp eye. Although he knew that Old Thirteen must have something to do with Old Three, he didn't want to miss it. I heard that the prince made tens of thousands of taels yesterday by using Old Thirteen. Could it be that he has some tricks up his sleeve? He definitely couldn't miss it this time.

"Seventh brother, I'll treat you to a meal another day. Today I do have something to ask Third brother!" Old Thirteen took Zhao Yuan's hand without saying anything and left quickly.

"You little bastard, what could possibly happen? You're so mysterious. I'm even more interested!" Zhao Lei waved his hand.

The personal bodyguard came forward, Zhao Lei whispered a few words in his ear, and then the personal bodyguard disappeared.

……

"Third brother, I would like to borrow your Lin Yan for a while?" Old Thirteen had a serious look on his face. He did not ask Zhao Yuan for the person directly, but chose to borrow her. Even the prince had not thought of this method.

"Oh! Why should I lend it to you?" Zhao Yuan's eyes were cold, with a hint of unkindness in his tone.

"Just because Lin Yan is unhappy living in Prince Rui's Mansion now!" Old Thirteen was more serious than ever before, staring firmly into Zhao Yuan's eyes.

"Unhappy? How is she unhappy? Not only did she receive a lot of money yesterday, she also won several thousand taels from me. I really don't see why she is unhappy?" Zhao Yuan snorted coldly.

"You only know one side of the story! Although Ayan is your concubine, you make sure she has plenty of money to spend and enjoy wealth and glory, but she is lonely in her heart and not happy at all." Old Thirteen had a serious look on his face and spoke in a heavy tone.

"Oh! How did you know that, little brat?"

"You all say that I am small, but it is precisely because I am small that Ayan can show her true self in front of me! Ayan likes freedom and the vast world outside the Rui Palace, instead of being your canary. Do you want to see a bright rose, full of vitality and radiant light, slowly withering in the Rui Palace? Just like your mother, Concubine De, who used to be so confident and beautiful, but what about now?" The last sentence of Old Thirteen immediately caught Zhao Yuan's sore spot.

"I'll think about it! Little kid, you'd better study hard! Watch out for the teacher to cause you trouble! I'll treat you to milk tea today." Zhao Yuan really took the third brother's words to heart.

"Okay!" Old Thirteen didn't say anything more. Third brother's attitude said it all. This was all he could do to help A Yan.

Lin Yan originally wanted to sleep until she woke up naturally, but she didn't expect that the door outside the yard would be slammed early in the morning.

"Are these bandits coming to rob us?" Lin Yan was awakened by the deafening sound and asked with sleepy eyes.

"I've asked Zhiye to go out and check it out." Lucha came over with clothes and helped Lin Yan put them on quickly.

"Oh no, master!" Zhiye ran in hurriedly.

"What's the matter?" Lin Yan's sleepiness was finally driven away.

"The princess asked you to go to the morning and evening meditation! You must do it in time for a cup of tea."

"Fuck! What's wrong with her? Didn't she tell me not to go? It's still early in the morning and she's already torturing me. Doesn't she know that sleep is important for women? Besides, it's still a while before dawn." Lin Yan was helpless. This news was like a bolt from the blue. There was no room for resistance. She could only obediently get dressed and go to the Dream Courtyard.

"The sun doesn't even get up earlier than her. What tricks has Mu Xueli come up with so early in the morning?" Lin Yan asked Green Tea.

"I'll go ask around right away!" Green Tea responded cleverly.

"Well! Go quickly and come back soon! I'll go over there and wait first, and Zhiye will accompany me to the Dream Courtyard and wait!" Lin Yan felt that Mu Xueli came with bad intentions this time, so she didn't come.

The Dream Garden was surprisingly quiet. Even the maid who cleaned the yard was gone, and the maid who opened the door had also disappeared. Lin Yan and Zhiye were standing alone in the yard.

All the lanterns in the yard were extinguished.

"What does Mu Xueli want to do? Does she think there is no one guarding her yard? Let me guard the yard for her! If she thinks this way, even if she catches me, I won't be in a hurry!" Lin Yan came prepared. Although it was still very cold in the early morning, she couldn't help but wear a lot of clothes today. She still felt it was okay. The yard was well maintained. It was also a good experience to look at the flowers, plants and trees and look up to greet the rising sun.

Click, the door opened

Xiangling and a group of about ten maids came out, each carrying a basin of water. What happened next was beyond Lin Yan's expectations.

Puff…Puff…

Basins of water were all poured on Lin Yan and the branches and leaves, making Lin Yan have a thorough Water-Splashing Festival, soaking wet from inside to outside, from top to bottom.

"Oh! Aunt Lin, I'm so sorry. We didn't see you. When did you come to our yard?" Xiang Ling said with a slightly apologetic voice and some surprise.

"Ahem..." Lin Yan couldn't even open her eyes because of the water splashing on them. She tried hard to wipe the water off her face and head. So there was something like this waiting for her. Mu Shirley was really cruel.

"Aunt Lin, I'm really sorry. Please come into the house and warm up." Xiang Ling hurried down and held Lin Yan's hand to prevent her from leaving.

"No, I'm going to go back and change my clothes now." Lin Yan struggled hard to break free from the pull of her neighbors. Zhiye also reacted and supported Lin Yan and prepared to leave.

"Girls, quickly help Aunt Lin into the house. How can we let her suffer the cold here?" Xiang Ling shouted.

Seven or eight girls came over and blocked their way.

Zhiye was shocked: "Thank you for your hospitality. When the prince comes back and sees my master wet like this, whether you did it intentionally or unintentionally, I believe you will be punished. You should think it through."

"Look at what you said. We didn't mean it, Master Lin, right? Come into the house and warm up for a while. Zhiye, you can't do this. It's obviously because you are the one who is protecting him. If Master Lin gets cold later, it will be your fault."

Zhiye was speechless and incoherent with anger! "You, you, you... you are talking nonsense... it's obviously you..."

Lin Yan suddenly realized what had happened, and she had calmed down from the sudden shock she had just received. She stopped wiping the water off her face and stopped moving.

Bending over, holding her stomach, she said, "Ouch, my stomach, my stomach, it hurts..."

"It's over! Master, you can't be..." Zhiye was instantly panicked and his face turned pale.

Xiang Ling, who was still pulling Lin Yan, also realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately jumped away from Lin Yan.

The other maids who were watching the scuffle also left quickly.

"Master!... You are bleeding..." Zhiye supported Lin Yan and did not dare to let go.

Xiang Ling turned pale instantly, her lips trembling: "It has nothing to do with us, it was done by your Master Lin himself..."

"You deliberately splashed water on Master Lin in such a cold day, and now you want to just say it has nothing to do with you..." Zhiye shouted.

"Zhiye, it hurts so much... Let's go back first..." Lin Yan gritted her teeth and grabbed Zhiye's arm.

"Okay!" Zhiye hurriedly helped Lin Yan leave the Dream Courtyard.

Mu Xueli never showed up from beginning to end, and no matter what happened to Lin Yan, it had nothing to do with her.

Xiangling felt uncomfortable and confused. She seemed so confident just now, but now she was filled with anxiety and regret, like a pancake being tortured in a frying pan.

Lin Yan's favor is obvious to all, and the princess's unpopularity is also obvious to all. If anything happens to the baby in Lin Yan's belly, the prince will eat her alive.

If she had known that Lin Yan was pregnant, she would never have joined in. But now she is in danger of death.

The other maids who were involved were not feeling much better now. They were like ants on a hot pan, running around in the yard in circles.

Those who had good eyesight quietly left the Dream Seeking Courtyard...
