"Let's go!" Xie Jinglan didn't hesitate and took her brother into the carriage.

With the prince's carriage leading the way, passers-by made way and the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace unimpeded.

At this time, a long queue had formed outside the palace gate. The ministers, with their families, were waiting to be inspected by the Royal Guards before entering the palace.

Seeing that it was the carriage from the Prince's Mansion, everyone thought that the Prince had arrived. They all stretched their necks to look over, curious about what the Prince looked like.

The carriage slowly stopped, and Hu Xiu lifted the curtain. "Xie Miss, we have arrived at the palace."

"Yeah." Xie Jinglan took her brother out of the carriage. Everyone was disappointed and felt jealous when they saw it.

It seems that the prince still values ​​Xie Jinglan very much, and he actually used his own car to pick her up and bring her into the palace.

At this moment, the carriage from Prince Mu's palace also arrived from the other end of the road and stopped next to the prince's carriage.

Everyone's eyes suddenly flashed with gossip.

These two people were once an engaged couple, and their wedding was just over ten days away. Now they have become future sister-in-law and brother-in-law. This is going to be a good show to watch.

Hu Xiu was originally going to drive away, but when he saw that it was the carriage from Prince Mu's Mansion, he frowned and handed the carriage to a royal guard guarding the gate, preparing to personally take Xie Jinglan and her brother into the palace.

The curtain of Prince Mu's carriage was lifted by the guards, and Beitang Hong came out of the carriage with a bent waist. Following him was Lin Ruyan, who was wearing a plain brocade dress and a cloak of the same color.

When they saw it was her, some people started whispering.

"I heard that it was this woman who broke up Prince Mu and Xie Jinglan's marriage. An unmarried woman staying alone in a room with a man is so shameless. No wonder the Duke of Li's Mansion wants to cancel the engagement."

"Isn't this Xie Ruyan? No! She should be called Lin Ruyan now. She stole her cousin's fiancé. She is really shameless.

In fact, Xie Jinglan is also quite pitiful. Her parents are gone, and there is no one to support her. She is bullied by that family.

Now that Old Lady Xie has recovered from her illness, she naturally has to make the decision for her granddaughter. She divorced Lin Yuansheng with great vigour, drove away that family of wolves, and canceled the marriage with King Mu, marrying her off to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

It’s Old Lady Xie who has the guts.”

"Of course. When Old Lady Xie was young, she was both talented and beautiful, and was famous all over the world. She never expected that she would end up marrying a jackal like Lin Yuansheng."

Although the discussion was not loud, Beitang Hong and Lin Ruyan heard it.

"Hey! The affair between these two is well known; it's no longer a secret. Sister Lin Ruyan used to be so arrogant in front of us, relying on her status as the daughter of the Duke of Li's mansion. Now that she no longer has the support of the Xie family, she must cling to Prince Mu's thigh tightly."

Everyone looked at Lin Ruyan with contempt, disdain, and ridicule.

Beitang Hong saw Xie Jinglan as soon as he got off the carriage. She came in the prince's special carriage. He was already unhappy, and when he heard the discussions around him, he glanced at her with a vicious look.

Those people immediately shrank their necks and pretended to be quails, not daring to speak anymore.

"Miss Xie, let's go in!" Hu Xiu said, leading the way.

"Okay," Xie Jinglan said indifferently, holding her brother's hand and following him.

"Sister Jinglan." Lin Ruyan suddenly called her.

"Who is your sister? Why are you shouting?" Xie Jinglan felt nauseous and turned around with a sarcastic look in her eyes.

Lin Ruyan's eyes instantly turned red. "Ms. Xie, I have no ill will towards you. I just want to say sorry. You don't have to be so hostile to me."

"No ill intentions? A man-eating wolf grandmother, covered in a hypocritical human skin, full of evil intentions, thinking about hurting people all the time, actually said that she had no ill intentions. It's a huge joke." Xie Jinglan sneered.

Now that she has the prince as her backer, she doesn't have to be afraid of Beitang Hong anymore. She has to disgust this scumbag and bitch.

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of laughter all around.

"Haha! Grandma Wolf, what Miss Xie said is so appropriate, hahaha..." A voice laughed particularly loudly, without any scruples.

Beitang Hong's face turned blue with anger and he was about to explode, but when he saw the man's face clearly, he took back the curse that was on the tip of his tongue. He just glared at him fiercely and turned his anger towards Xie Jinglan.

"Xie Jinglan, you have a vicious heart, so why do you use this to judge others?"

“Since I am considered a vicious person in the prince’s eyes, why are you still talking to me?

"Remember yesterday in the Council Hall, this woman kept saying in front of the Queen Mother and His Majesty that she wanted to stay away from you, Prince Mu. Now you two are fooling around together again. Does this count as deceiving the emperor?" Xie Jinglan said sarcastically.

"You..." Bitch, Lin Ruyan was so angry that she almost cursed out these two words.

"Lin Ruyan, I will not let go of what you did to me." After saying this, Xie Jinglan didn't want to pay any more attention to the two of them, and walked towards the palace gate with her brother.

"Xie Jinglan, stop right there." Beitang Hong chased after her angrily, trying to grab her hand.

Hu Xiu quickly stepped in front of him and said, "Prince Mu, Miss Xie is now the future Crown Princess of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and your future sister-in-law. I advise Your Highness not to make any advances on her."

"Apologize to Yan'er." Beitang Hong was really mad. The woman he looked down upon the most in the past two days had been provoking him again and again.

Do you think this will attract his attention?

"Apologize to her? A lowly maid, does she have the nerve to do that?" Xie Jinglan sneered.

"Your Highness, that's not necessary!" Lin Ruyan held Beitang Hong's hand, looking pitiful and bullied. "It's because of Yan'er's low status that she doesn't dare to ask Miss Xie to apologize."

"You do have some self-awareness." The man who had laughed the loudest just now walked forward and glanced at Lin Ruyan with disdain. "Xie Miss, this prince likes your personality very much."

Xie Jinglan looked at the man, who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a red robe, with a flamboyant look, handsome features, and a half-smile on the corner of his mouth.

A name popped up in my mind: Sikong Xiao! The third prince of Nanyang State. His mother was the half-sister of Emperor Kunming. He had been married to Nanyang State over 20 years ago and was now the Queen of Nanyang State.

"It's the Third Prince. I'm honored to meet you." She bowed slightly.

"You're welcome!" Sikong Xiao waved at her and glanced at Lin Ruyan.

"Brother Mu Wang, your eyesight is really not very good! How could you fall in love with this double-faced wolf grandmother?"

"Third Prince, I hope I haven't offended you." Lin Ruyan's face was as pale as paper, and her frail body was shaking.

"Sikong Xiao, you are not allowed to say that to Yan'er!" Beitang Hong looked at the people whispering around him and felt completely ashamed.

It’s all because of that damn Xie Jinglan.

"Xie Jinglan, I will let you go today." He glared at Xie Jinglan fiercely, supported Lin Ruyan and left first.

Xie Jinglan looked at the backs of the couple and felt like she was being stared at by two mad dogs in heat, which would pounce on her and bite her from time to time.

The good mood of the day was ruined.
