"Girl, I don't think this Yin is a good person. After failing to give your man a daughter, he wants to get an official position for their son. He is quite ambitious!" The crow's voice came into Chu Feiyan's ears.

"Okay, but I don't know whether you want to pursue a career in literature or martial arts?" Gong Beixuan's voice was still cold:

"If he wants to pursue a career in literature, let him take the imperial examination when the time comes! If he has real talent and knowledge, the court will naturally recruit him. If he wants to pursue a career in the military, he can register at the military recruitment office and someone will arrange a job for him."

The Yin couple looked as if they had eaten a fly, extremely ugly. If they had to wait for the imperial examination to enter officialdom, then why did they come all the way here?

"Mr. Gong, this is it..."

"Someone, come here! Show the guests out!" Gong Beixuan ordered them to leave without any hesitation.

"Brother Yu, is it because of her that you hate me so much?" Yin Jinglan pointed at Chu Feiyan.

"I have liked you since I was a child, and I have been waiting for you until now. I like you as much as she does, and I even like you more than her. Why can't you accept me?"

"Do you really like him? Yin Jinglan, stop deceiving yourself." Chu Feiyan looked at Yin Jinglan sarcastically:

"You were actually married five years ago. No! It should be said that you eloped with someone. I thought your Yin family kept it a secret, but there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable."

Before they left Huajing last time, she asked Hu Min to investigate Yin Jinglan. After more than half a year of running around and making secret investigations, they finally found out all the details about this woman.

"You're talking nonsense!" Yin Jinglan seemed very excited, "Chu Feiyan, in order to prevent me from marrying Brother Yu, you actually fabricated facts out of thin air and slandered my innocence?"

Gong Beixuan and Madam Xiao were very surprised when they heard this. This Yin Jinglan was actually married?

"It seems like you won't cry until you see the coffin?" Chu Feiyan sneered and shouted to the outside of the palace door, "Hu Min, bring the person in!"

"Yes!"

After a while, Hu Min came in with a handsome young man.

When they saw this man, the faces of the Yin family members changed slightly.

Chu Feiyan looked at the man. His blue shirt was washed to a pale color, but still neat, which showed that his family was not well off.

The man seemed a little reserved. He walked up to Gong Beixuan and Chu Feiyan and knelt down. "I pay my respects to you, my Lord."

"Stand up and talk! What's your name?" Chu Feiyan asked.

"This is Princess Min'an and Master Gong." Hu Min introduced them to the man.

The man stood up and answered, "My humble name is Zhai Li, and I am from Jinzhou."

"Zhai Li, right?" Chu Feiyan nodded to him, pointed at Yin Jinglan and asked, "Do you recognize him?"

Zhai Li then noticed the person sitting next to him. He saw Yin Jinglan at a glance and walked towards her excitedly, "Lan'er, I finally see you."

Madam Yin quickly stopped him, "Who are you? My daughter doesn't know you!"

Zhai Li's eyes were fixed on Yin Jinglan. "Lan'er, why don't you speak? I came to find you after you left, but why didn't you see me..."

"Sir, you have recognized the wrong person. I am the eldest daughter of the Yin family and Brother Yu's fiancée, not the Lan'er you mentioned." Yin Jinglan looked at Zhai Li with disgust.

"No! I won't make a mistake." Zhai Li pointed at her right ear and said, "You have a small black mole behind your ear, and a small red birthmark on your shoulder..."

"Shut up!" Madam Yin interrupted him angrily, "My daughter has been engaged to Master Gong for a long time, and she has never left the house alone. You have the wrong person."

"Lan'er and I have been married for two years, so I won't mistake her for someone else." Zhai Li took out a jade pendant from his arms, "This is the token of love we exchanged..."

"You're talking nonsense." Mrs. Yin suddenly slapped the jade pendant away.

"Bang!" The jade pendant fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

"Princess Min'an, if you don't want Jinglan to enter the palace, we won't force you, but you don't have to instigate outsiders to slander my daughter's innocence." Mrs. Yin was a little annoyed and pulled Yin Jinglan away.

The head of the Yin family blushed and bowed to Gong Beixuan, "Sorry for disturbing you, goodbye!"

"Lan'er." Zhai Li wanted to chase her out, but was stopped by Hu Min. "Don't chase her. If you leave this palace, I'm afraid you won't live past tomorrow."

Zhai Li stopped walking, looking distraught, "She really still thinks I'm poor."

"Work hard!" Hu Min patted his shoulder.

Zhai Li nodded silently, bowed and said goodbye to Gong Beixuan and Chu Feiyan, "I'll take my leave."

He was selling calligraphy and paintings on the street today when he was suddenly called into the palace by Hu Min and had to go back to look after his stall quickly.

"Hu Min, find him a job!" Chu Feiyan suddenly said.

Although Zhai Li was only a scholar, he was quite talented.

Zhai Li was pleasantly surprised and knelt down before them, "Thank you so much, Princess."

"Work hard and hope to pass the next imperial examination. Don't think about things that don't belong to you. Otherwise, you won't know when your life will end." Chu Feiyan advised him.

This Zhai Li was originally a child of a wealthy family. He was an excellent poet and had a handsome and elegant appearance.

As a result, he was noticed by Yin Jinglan, and they secretly developed feelings for each other.

But their affair was soon discovered by the Yin family's head and wife, who locked up Yin Jinglan and did not allow the two to meet again, because the Zhai family was just an ordinary wealthy businessmen and was not worthy of their daughter at all.

But Yin Jinglan had been fascinated by Zhai Li and would not marry anyone else. She asked her maid to help her escape at night and eloped with Zhai Li, and the two went to Jinzhou.

When the Yin couple found out about this, they were very angry, but since the matter was done, they had no choice but to let her go.

Because it was an unplanned affair, the Yin family was afraid of losing face and therefore never announced the fact that Yin Jinglan was married.

But the good times did not last long. One of Zhai Li's cousins ​​committed a serious crime, and the Zhai family was implicated and all their property was confiscated by the court.

Fortunately, no one was hurt, but the Zhai family became penniless overnight and had to live in a thatched hut.

Yin Jinglan has been spoiled since she was a child. Although Zhai Li didn't let her do anything, she couldn't bear the hard life of not even having enough food to eat.

In less than two months, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she secretly found Yin's shop in Jinzhou and asked the owner there to find someone to send her back to Huajing.

"Thank you for the reminder, Princess." Zhai Li understood the meaning of Chu Feiyan's words, thanked her profusely, and left with Hu Min.

He secretly swore in his heart that he must make a name for himself.

Seeing that Gong Beixuan had a gloomy face all the time, Xiao also made an excuse to leave the palace.

"Everyone in the Yin family is very ambitious. We have to be careful of them." Chu Feiyan said.

“Well, they’d better behave themselves, otherwise, the Yue family will end up like them.” Gong Beixuan’s eyes were full of disgust.

"Ayan, let's not see these people again."

"I found out that Yin Jinglan was married, and I saw that they had sent their marriage proposals several times, so I called Zhai Li here, hoping that they would give up." Chu Feiyan thought of Yin Jinglan's face, and realized that she might not give up yet.
