"Have you heard? Miss Lin is a woman who brings bad luck to her husband."

"I heard that it was the abbot who personally decided her fate, and her future husband is the Crown Prince—"

"I've heard rumors a long time ago that her third uncle died when she was born. How scary."

"Are you talking about the former Lin Tanhua?"

"right--"

Fang Yule listened to all this with a slight smile on his face.

The two women seemed to have just remembered her and turned their heads, "Yu Le, have you heard?"

She then pretended to be enlightened and said, "Not yet. If you hadn't mentioned it just now, I wouldn't have known about it."

The woman in the pink dress continued, "Hasn't she been with the Marquis of Wu'an since she was a child? The prince has been a sickly child since he was born. Just a while ago, when she returned to the capital, the prince couldn't even stand up."

The blue-clothed woman was surprised and covered her lips. "Is it really like this? I didn't know. I was wondering why I couldn't see Prince Yu outside recently?"

Fang Yule pretended to be regretful and said, "Is the condition of Prince Yu so serious now? It's really a pity. Prince Yu is a man of amazing talent, but he has ended up like this."

"Who says it's not true? If Lin Tingwan had stayed at the border honestly, this wouldn't have happened."

The blue-dressed woman replied sarcastically, "I am just lucky. I was personally chosen by the late emperor as the Crown Prince's principal wife."

The pink-dressed woman held Fang Yule's hand and sighed, "It's a pity for Yule. If Lin Tingwan hadn't gotten in her way, she might have become the head of the East Palace."

"But don't say that. I would never dare to have such an idea." Although Fang Yule said this, his bright eyes were full of ambition.

"Yu Le, you are just too low-key. You have been the ninth princess's study partner since childhood, and you and the crown prince have seen each other every day, so you can be considered childhood sweethearts."

"If it weren't for Lin Tingwan, this position would definitely be yours, there is no doubt about it. Who else but you is worthy of being His Highness?" the woman in blue said confidently.

The pink-dressed woman heard this and continued, "That's right, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats you so well on weekdays, how can she compare to him?"

Speaking of this, Fang Yule's expression was a little stiff. In fact, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really nice to her a few years ago, but for some reason he became increasingly cold towards her in recent years.

"Yes, yes, the jade bracelet that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave you a while ago was made of emerald. The color was really beautiful." The blue-clothed woman looked envious. "If someone is willing to give me a bracelet like this in the future, I will definitely be extremely happy."

The bracelet was not actually given by Pei Yanli, but Fang Yule's vanity. She actually bought the table herself, but Fang Yule would not tell the truth, "It's just a bracelet anyway. Someone will definitely give it to you in the future."

"Then I'll lend you my good words."

The three of them talked for a while and then Fang Yule went out on the pretext of going to the toilet.

The woman in blue laughed contemptuously, "Do you really think I've never seen anything like this? It's just a bracelet, given to her."

"That's right. I really don't know what kind of magic potion she has fed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Lin Tingwan is not worthy of His Royal Highness, but she really thinks that she can be worthy of him."

……

The news that Lin Tingwan was destined to bring bad luck to her husband soon spread to the palace.

The Queen looked at Madam Liu in shock, "Are you sure this was the order from Abbot Tianquan?"

Madam Liu nodded heavily. "I have specially asked someone to tell me, and it is indeed Abbot Tianquan who made the prediction. It is said that the strange phenomenon that fell from the sky a few days ago was because Miss Lin returned."

The queen then remembered that the sun had indeed come out when it was raining a few days ago. The Imperial Observatory said it was a very auspicious sign, but she believed more in the words of Abbot Tianquan.

Thinking about it this way, the strange phenomenon from the sky happened a few days before Lin Tingwan returned to the capital. So this is exactly the case.

Abbot Tianquan was well-known throughout Yongjin. On weekdays, the Queen would occasionally invite Abbot Tianquan to the palace to talk to her about Buddhism, and the Queen believed in it without a doubt.

This made the Queen very anxious. "No, she must not be allowed to marry Yan Li."

After saying that, the queen stood up and said, "Go to the East Palace."

In the East Palace, Pei Yanli was practicing calligraphy. When he saw the Queen come in angrily, he asked in confusion, "What is the matter that makes Mother so anxious?"

"Do you know that Lin Tingwan is a murderer?"

Pei Yanli frowned slightly when he heard this, "I wonder what you mean, mother?"

"Madame Liu, please talk to him." The Queen said angrily.

"Yes."

In the next half a minute, Nanny Liu told Pei Yanli everything in an orderly manner.

After knowing the whole story, Pei Yanli chuckled, "Mother, this is all nonsense. How could Wanwan be a jinx to her husband?"

He didn't know why Abbot Tianquan said that, but it was all thanks to him that he could see Lin Tingwan again in this life.

But Pei Yanli knew very well whether Lin Tingwan was a jinx or not. They had been married for sixteen years in their previous life. If she was a jinx, he should have died before Lin Tingwan.

But the reality is that Lin Tingwan died early, but he actually lived a few decades longer. If Lin Tingwan was really a jinx, he should have gone with her at that time.

Hearing this, the Queen looked at him in shock, "I think you have really lost your mind. For a woman, you even disregarded your own life."

Pei Yanli sighed, and said helplessly, "Mother, this matter must be because someone saw that Wanwan had returned to the capital and did not want her to marry me, so it was spread by someone with ulterior motives."

The Empress looked at Pei Yanli with displeasure, "This is the fate that Abbot Tianquan personally approved, how could it be false?"

"I knew you didn't believe it, so I sent someone to verify it early in the morning. Don't make a fuss here. Anyway, I don't agree with this marriage! I will go to your father and explain it clearly, and find a way to cancel this engagement."

Pei Yanli was completely panicked when she said that. He had only one purpose in coming back this time, which was to be with Lin Tingwan, raise Tuanzi together, and be buried in the same coffin.

"Mother, this is an engagement granted by the Emperor. You can't do this." He paused and took a deep breath. "If you insist on doing this, you will be alienated from your son."

The queen's eyes widened instantly, and she looked at him in disbelief, "Do you know what you are saying? You are so disobedient to your mother for a woman! If that's the case, I will never let her marry into the East Palace!"
