But she had just been reborn and her body was in very poor condition. It was not the time to settle the accounts with them.

"I heard that thieves broke into the palace and stole things from the storeroom. I was worried so I came out to check."

Xie Ruyan, wearing a moon-white gauze dress with a long skirt, walked over gracefully and knelt to Beitang Hong.

"Your Majesty."

Xie Jinglan raised her lips in a mocking manner and was about to leave.

"Xie Jinglan, stop right there." Beitang Hong called out to her, "Did I tell you to leave?"

"What else does Your Highness want to say?" Xie Jinglan turned around.

"Apologize to Yan'er." Beitang Hong supported Xie Ruyan with one hand and pointed at the broken pieces of the jade bracelet on the ground with the other hand.

"That jade bracelet was personally chosen by Yan'er as a gift to you. How dare you break it? You must apologize to Yan'er."

"Why should I apologize? Since the jade bracelet has been given to me, it belongs to me. Your Highness has no right to interfere with how I deal with my things, right?" Xie Jinglan asked coldly.

"You..." Beitang Hong was speechless for a moment, and said angrily, "How dare you speak to me like that?"

"Isn't what I said the truth?" Xie Jinglan retorted.

Since these two people want to cause trouble, she doesn't mind making things bigger, preferably even before the emperor.

"Sister Jinglan, please don't be angry." Xie Ruyan looked at the broken pieces of the jade bracelet on the ground, a hint of pride in her eyes. "Did I do something wrong to make you and the prince angry again?"

"Xie Ruyan, you are an unmarried woman, and you run to live with your cousin's fiancé's house and have an affair without a matchmaker. You are so shameless." Xie Jinglan looked at the two people with mockery.

"Sister Jinglan, don't talk nonsense. The prince and I are innocent." Xie Ruyan's face was pale, and she said to Beitang Hong in grievance:

"Your Highness, it seems that Sister Jinglan has a deep misunderstanding of us. Yan'er shouldn't come to live in the palace."

"Xie Jinglan, you are such a vulgar and vicious woman. Ruyan is your cousin, how can you say that about her?"

Beitang Hong's face flushed red again, "It's none of your business who I like."

"What? You guys can do shameless things, but you won't let others say anything?" Xie Jinglan sneered.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xie Ruyan's eyes. This idiot actually dared to speak to King Mu like this, and in an aggressive manner. He didn't even dare to breathe in front of Beitang Hong before, so what happened today?

"Sister Jinglan, you really misunderstood me and the prince. You also know that my health is not good. It was the prince who took pity on me and helped me find a doctor. I had no choice but to come to the palace.

If you are angry about this matter, I apologize to you. Please don't let me cause any rift between you and the prince."

"Did he misunderstand you? He went everywhere to help you find a doctor? Since the prince is so kind and there are so many patients in the world, why didn't he help other women? But he only helped you?

You are inseparable wherever you go, and treat me, your real fiancée, like air. Do you think I am a fool?

"Xie Ruyan, since you say this is all a misunderstanding and you have no dirty thoughts towards Prince Mu, then when I enter the palace the day after tomorrow, I will not ask His Majesty for permission to grant you the position of Consort Ping." Xie Jinglan sneered.

The day after tomorrow is the emperor’s fortieth birthday.

In her previous life, she entered the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday. At the palace banquet, she knelt down in front of the emperor and begged him to grant Xie Ruyan the position of Concubine Ping.

She thought that by doing so she could please Beitang Hong, and that the cousins ​​would share the same husband, which would also demonstrate her virtue and magnanimity as the main wife.

In this life, she would of course go to the palace to ask for permission from the emperor, but it would definitely not be for Xie Ruyan.

Xie Ruyan choked and became even more suspicious. When did Xie Jinglan become so eloquent?

Suddenly, her body softened and she fell into Beitang Hong's arms. She was about to cry, "Your Highness! It's all my fault that my body is not doing well. I need Sister Jinglan's blood to stabilize my condition. I am unlucky. I am afraid that I can no longer stay by your side."

"Yan'er, you are not allowed to say that!" Beitang Hong hugged her with heartache, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a better doctor to cure your heart disease, and I will never allow you to leave my side."

"What a loving couple, you and I." Xie Jinglan clapped her hands and said sarcastically:

"Xie Ruyan, why aren't you pretending now? You're just a hypocritical white lotus, growing in filthy mud. No matter how pure you appear on the surface, it can't change the filth and dirtiness at your core.

You keep saying that your relationship is innocent, but now you are hugging and kissing each other in public without any scruples. Do you still know what shame is..."

"Enough!" Beitang Hong interrupted her angrily. In his heart, Xie Ruyan was the most perfect woman, and he would never let anyone insult her like this.

"Xie Jinglan, you just can't stand seeing Yan'er doing well. How can you be so vicious? You are not even as good as a hair of Yan'er. You are not worthy of being the Princess of Mu."

"In that case, our marriage will be annulled! I will grant your wish, but Your Highness, please return my marriage certificate and token of love." Xie Jinglan stretched out her hand to him.

"You want to cancel the engagement? Xie Jinglan, are you threatening me?" Beitang Hong glared at her angrily. This woman was getting bolder and bolder. She actually played hard to get with him?

"If Your Highness insists on thinking so, then so be it." Xie Jinglan glared back fearlessly, "As long as you return the marriage certificate and token to me, I will never appear in front of you again."

"Our marriage was arranged by the Empress Dowager and granted by the Emperor. If you want to cancel the engagement, go and tell the Emperor yourself." Beitang Hong didn't believe that she would cancel the engagement.

This woman has liked him for so long, and her eyes are always full of love when she looks at him. After finally getting the emperor to grant her marriage, how could she bear to cancel the engagement?

What she said was just a way of retreating in order to advance, and she didn't want Yan'er to enter the palace and become Concubine Ping.

What a vicious woman!

"Wait." Xie Jinglan didn't want to see Xie Ruyan's pretentious face again, so she walked away, leaving behind a sentence:

"Beitang Hong, no one is a fool. You'd better not push them too far."

Xie Ruyan raised her head from Beitang Hong's arms and looked at her departing back with a fierce light in her eyes.

After leaving Prince Mu's mansion, Xiao Jinzi's angry voice came from the space, "Master, so it was Xie Ruyan who took your precious blood? How abhorrent! The next time I see her, I will definitely poison her."

"That's right, but I've already put a Hundred Days of Laughter on that bowl of blood, so Xie Ruyan won't be able to be so proud any longer." Xie Jinglan replied.

[She's already been given Hundred Days of Laughter? Then how come she's fine?] Xiao Jinzi was surprised. This poison takes effect quickly, yet this woman drank it and was fine?

[She is not sick at all, why should she drink...] On the way back, Xie Jinglan told Monkey everything about her past and present life.

After hearing this, Xiao Jinzi was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He rubbed his hands and said, "Master, those who hurt you deserve to be cut into pieces! Leave it to me. I can take care of them with a few packets of poison by tonight."
