I took Xie Xue out of Shouning Palace, but felt like there was nowhere to go.

After thinking about it, the two went to the Imperial Garden to appreciate the flowers.

The chrysanthemums in the imperial garden were blooming in all colors, and many concubines and princesses were enjoying the flowers.

In order to avoid bumping into the nobles in the palace, Xie Jinglan walked towards a place with fewer people.

As expected of the imperial garden of the palace, there are many precious chrysanthemums, including some rare varieties that she has never seen in the 21st century.

"Xie Jinglan, stop right there." Someone suddenly called her from behind.

Hearing the owner of this voice, Xie Jinglan's eyes flashed with disgust. It was really bad luck to go out and meet this scumbag again.

She turned around and saw Beitang Hong coming from another path.

"Prince Mu came to me to return the 480,000 taels of gold?" she asked coldly.

When he heard her mention the gold, Beitang Hong's already ugly face became even gloomier.

But you are just a loser, and you dare to ask him for gold? You’ll have to wait for the next life!

He walked up to her and stopped, his eyes falling on her, and he was slightly stunned.

I haven't seen her for more than ten days, and I always feel that something is different about her.

She was wearing a light blue soft gauze dress, and her jet-black hair was tied up in a popular bun. Her face, which had been so thin before, had gained some flesh and her complexion was rosy, and she seemed to be a little prettier than before.

But she is only a little prettier than before, and is far inferior to his Yan'er.

Lin Ruyan, who is recognized as the most beautiful and talented woman in the world, is the white moonlight in his heart, and no one can replace her.

And Xie Jinglan wasn't even a ten-thousandth of her! Relying on her status as the legitimate daughter of Duke Li, she went to great lengths to get the Empress Dowager to grant them a marriage, and she pestered him relentlessly, much to his disgust!

Fortunately, Yan'er was generous and willing to give up the position of Princess Mu to her.

"Xie Jinglan, don't think that just because you've hooked up with the Crown Prince, you can ignore me."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may indeed not take you seriously, but I am the future Crown Princess, and I will rise and fall with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The implication is that she is the future Crown Princess and can ignore him.

"Hahaha!" Beitang Hong laughed disdainfully, "It's just an engagement, you really take yourself so seriously!"

Xie Jinglan's eyes turned cold, but this was the imperial palace, and she didn't want to pay any attention to this self-righteous mad dog, so she turned and left.

Seeing her about to leave, Beitang Hong thought she was scared, "Xie Jinglan, stop right there, did I let you go?"

Xie Xue saw that the visitor had bad intentions and was a little worried, "Miss..."

"Nothing." Xie Jinglan stopped and looked at what he wanted to do.

"Xie Jinglan, if you apologize to me now and admit your mistakes, and continue to give Yan'er two bowls of your heart's blood every month as before, I will forgive your mistakes." Beitang Hong thought that as long as he said a few nice words, this woman would come back to him.

This woman liked him so much before, her heart and eyes were filled with him, it is impossible for her to suddenly stop liking him.

"My fault? What fault of mine?" Xie Jinglan felt that this bastard must be out of his mind.

"Although Lin Yuansheng did some wrong things, Yan'er has always treated you as her own sister, and I have never thought of canceling your engagement. But you are narrow-minded and have always targeted her, preventing her from marrying into the palace.

If you go and apologize to Yan'er, I will still accept you as before. The position of Princess Mu will still be yours, and you will be on equal footing with Yan'er and stay by my side."

During this period, his father, the emperor, and his mother became increasingly dissatisfied with him, and many court officials were also impeaching him, all targeting Lin Ruyan, causing Yan'er to cry all day long and even have thoughts of suicide.

And all this is because of this woman.

"Beitang Hong, have you forgotten that I am now the Crown Prince's fiancée and the future Crown Princess. This marriage was granted by the Empress Dowager and His Majesty. Why would I be so eager to be your Princess Mu?" Xie Jinglan suspected that this bastard might have a head full of tofu, which is why he said such idiotic words?

Seeing her disdainful look, Beitang Hong was a little annoyed, "Xie Jinglan, how dare you look down on me like this? Aren't you just relying on the Crown Prince to back you up?

I'm not afraid to tell you that Beitang Yuan is a short-lived ghost. When he dies, who will you rely on? When the time comes, I will just say a word and you and the Duke of Li will disappear from Yuyong Country at any time."

"Beitang Hong, you are so bold that you actually dare to curse the crown prince? Aren't you afraid that I will tell the crown prince? And let His Majesty punish you?" Although Xie Jinglan had no feelings for Beitang Yuan, she couldn't bear to hear someone cursing him so blatantly, and she was angry in her heart.

"I am telling the truth, Xie Jinglan. I am saying this to make you face reality and stop dreaming unrealistically. You have been making trouble enough recently. As long as you admit your mistake, I will promise you a life of wealth and glory and make you the most noble woman in the world." Beitang Hong turned his nose up and gave her a condescending look.

"Beitang Hong, I think you are dreaming an unrealistic dream. I might as well tell you that as long as I, Xie Jinglan, am alive, Beitang Yuan will be fine." Xie Jinglan clenched her fists tightly.

For the sake of Duke Li's Mansion, she would never let Beitang Yuan die, and would never let Beitang Hong ascend to that position.

"Xie Jinglan, I'm trying to persuade you with good words, but don't be ungrateful! Don't think that just because you cured Madam Lu's tuberculosis, you're a miracle doctor. I don't even know your true abilities. You were lucky enough to cure Madam Lu's illness, but it was only because of your blood!"

When Beitang Hong said this, a smug look appeared on his face. This woman must be panicking now that he knew her secret, right?

There was a depth and unfathomable look in Xie Jinglan's dark eyes.

Beitang Hong actually knew that her blood could cure diseases. It must have been Lin Ruyan who told him.

Seeing that she was silent, he thought she was scared, so he softened his tone, "Xie Jinglan, you have been slandering Yan'er all this time, but Yan'er is kind-hearted. She has been feeling wronged, but she has been speaking well of you, asking me not to be angry with you. If you were half as considerate as Yan'er, I wouldn't have treated you like that before."

"Haha..." Xie Jinglan sneered a few times, "Since your Yan'er is so good, then you should be locked up with her for the rest of your life! Don't harm others anymore."

"You..." Beitang Hong's face suddenly turned ugly. It seemed that this woman didn't hear a word he said?

"Xie Jinglan, I'm just giving you a way out. Don't be so shameless. The Linggun Mountain Martial Arts Competition will be held in a few days. Once your Xie family is no longer ranked, you'll only have the empty title of Duke of Li, and you won't even be qualified to carry my shoes."

"Since I am not worthy and so ungrateful, why are you still talking so much nonsense to me? Beitang Hong, let me reiterate to you again, I am Xie Jinglan! I have nothing to do with you anymore, please stay away from me in the future." After Xie Jinglan finished speaking, she turned and left.

"Stop right there." Beitang Hong was furious. How dare this woman turn her head against him?

He quickly stopped her and said, "This is the last chance I'll give you. If you don't appreciate it, don't blame me for spreading the news that your blood can cure diseases.

By then, you will be a piece of fat meat, snatched up by everyone in the world, with no one to protect you. You won’t even know when you will die.”

Xie Jinglan sneered, "Are you threatening me? After all this talk, you just want me to continue to be used by you and squeeze out all my value? The person who came up with this vicious idea should be Lin Ruyan..."

"This has nothing to do with Yan'er. Don't use your dirty mind to guess about her." Seeing that she was about to slander Lin Ruyan again, Beitang Hong was furious.

Yan'er is such a good woman, he will never allow anyone to desecrate her.
