After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Princess Jingmin felt like she was about to vomit blood out of anger. How dare Gu Jin!

Emperor Hui'an took a while to accept the information from Gu Jin. He glanced at Xie Ran with a strange expression, "You said, you sold Xie Ran out?"

Gu Jin nodded, with a pure smile in his eyes.

"Your Highness said that I am not worthy of my husband and hoped that I could ask to leave him, and I agree with him.

But a woman's life after divorce is bound to be hard, so I reached a consensus with Your Highness that Your Highness would give me 500 taels of gold as compensation for my mental damages, and I would give up my position as the general's wife."

"I didn't..." Princess Jingmin was furious. She didn't want to reveal her aggressive true face in front of her father and her lover, but the more anxious she became, the more speechless she became.

Yun Bi didn't expect that Gu Jin would dare to openly complain in front of Emperor Hui'an. She just stared at Gu Jin in a daze.

"Your Majesty, although Your Highness did not marry my husband to bring him good luck, now that my husband has recovered, I feel that I should help him.

Your Highness is right, only a noble person like her is worthy of her husband's noble appearance. "Gu Jin lowered her eyes sadly and sighed softly, looking like a weak and helpless little pitiful person.

Princess Jingmin's eyes were red with lust. How dare this bitch take advantage of her discomfort and act sarcastic in front of her father!

Gu Jin secretly curled the corners of her mouth. She had no such thing as morals.

When dealing with an enemy, you should kick the lame person's good leg hard and kill her while she is sick. What martial ethics is there?

Emperor Hui'an understood, and he was more or less aware of his daughter's temper.

"You two girls don't know the limits when joking around. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if this gets out?" Emperor Hui'an didn't want to admit that his daughter was thinking about a married man, nor did he want to pay attention to Gu Jin who dared to sell his husband, so he just treated the two as a joke.

"Why don't you help your Highness down to see his wounds?"

Seeing Emperor Hui'an's unhappy expression, Yunbi hurriedly agreed in fear.

Princess Jingmin felt pain all over her body. She looked at Xie Ran with a feeling of grievance, but saw that Xie Ran was looking at Gu Jin without even glancing at her.

She was instantly filled with jealousy. How could a mere young lady from a poor baron's family catch his eye?

Princess Jingmin didn't dare to act recklessly in front of Emperor Hui'an and could only hide the ruthlessness in her eyes.

She wants to make that bitch Gu Jin die miserably!

After this incident, Emperor Hui'an no longer had the interest to play chess with Xie Ran and the other two, so he planned to send the four of them out of the palace. However, he noticed that Gu Jin would look up at him from time to time, with eyes that seemed to indicate he wanted to say something but stopped.

Emperor Hui'an asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Gu Jin waved her hands, looking innocent, "I didn't mention the gold!"

Emperor Hui’an: “…” How else do you want to bring this up!

"Don't worry, I'll never forget what I told you!"

Emperor Hui'an turned away, only giving Xie Ran a meaningful look on his face, which showed confusion, sympathy and a hint of gloating.

Xie Ran: “…”

After they left the palace, Xie Qing couldn't help but speak: "How can you be so bold and reckless? Not only did you cause trouble in front of Concubine Wan, but you also dared to speak without restraint in front of His Majesty. If you offend His Majesty, the Marquis' Mansion will not be able to protect you!"

Xie Qing was angry that Gu Jin did not follow the rules, but was also worried that she would really be punished by the noble.

Gu Jin glanced at him and said in a cold tone, "Big brother, just take care of my second sister. My husband didn't say anything to me, so there's no need for you to teach me a lesson!"

After saying this, she curved her eyebrows and smiled at Xie Ran, looking completely different from before, "Isn't that right, husband?"

Xie Ran looked deeply into Gu Jin's eyes, lowered his eyes and opened his lips, "I'm tired, let's go back home."

Seeing Xie Ran and Gu Jin getting into the carriage, Xie Qing felt irritated for no reason. After getting into the carriage, he frowned and asked, "What happened in the Imperial Garden?"

Gu Rou recounted the whole story, adding only a few more scenes, “I pleaded for my elder sister, hoping that Princess Jingmin could forgive her.

But Princess Jingmin is so majestic that she won’t listen to me at all.”

Xie Qing ignored Gu Rou's little thoughts. Instead, he was somewhat happy, and his cold eyes showed a hint of smile.

Gu Jin agreed to give Xie Ran to Princess Jingmin without hesitation, which shows that she does not have Xie Ran in her heart. The love between them is indeed fake, and she must still have him in her heart!

"Husband, why are there so many hornets in the imperial garden out of nowhere? Why do they choose to attack Princess Jingmin? Isn't it a bit strange?" Gu Rou always felt that this matter was weird.

Especially when Gu Jin abruptly asked Princess Jingmin if she was afraid of being punished by God, and then Princess Jingmin was stung by a wasp. Isn't this too coincidental?

"It's normal to have mosquitoes in summer." Xie Qingmo said nonchalantly. Apart from accidents, is it possible that someone could "attract bees and butterflies"?

Gu Rou felt that something was a little weird, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was for a moment so she put it out of her mind.

"Husband." Gu Rou called tenderly.

"Ok?"

Gu Rou looked at Xie Qing tenderly, "Didn't you say yesterday that you would accompany me to go around after leaving the palace?"

Xie Qing recalled this incident, thought about it and nodded: "I remember, I will accompany you wherever you want to go."

Gu Rou just smiled when she heard Xie Qing say, "By the way, ask Third Brother if they want to go with us."

Gu Rou's smile froze. Xie Qing didn't want to find Xie Ran to travel with him at all. He was probably still thinking about that bitch Gu Jin!

Gu Jin is really becoming more and more of an eyesore!

At the same time, the atmosphere on the other side was a little low. Xie Ran looked at Gu Jin, who was keeping silent with his eyes downcast, with a complicated expression, "Do you have anything you want to tell me?"

Gu Jin looked up at Xie Ran with a guilty conscience, raised the corners of his lips and showed a professional fake smile, "Listen to my excuse... No, listen to my explanation.

I didn’t intend to sell you, but I was a little scared by Princess Jingmin’s pressure, so I gave in…”

Xie Ran curled his lips, as if he had heard something extremely funny, "You are afraid too?"

The first time she entered the palace, she not only slapped Concubine Wan in the face, but also dared to blackmail the emperor. If she was said to be timid, then everyone in the world would be a coward.

"I dare to act in front of Concubine Wan because I know she is your aunt, and she can't kill me for the sake of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion.

His Majesty values ​​you, and those rewards are just given to you through me.

But Princess Jingmin is crazy. If I hadn’t been smart, you wouldn’t have seen me today.”

Gu Jin is bold but not brainless. On the contrary, she knows everyone's bottom line. Although what she does seems incredible to others, she has never crossed the safety line.

"You can see through people's hearts quite clearly." Xie Ran said meaningfully, his eyes becoming increasingly deep as he looked at Gu Jin.

Gu Jin didn't notice it, and just said, "No one in society is really stupid."

"society?"

Gu Jin waved his hand, "You won't understand even if I tell you."

Xie Ran lowered his eyes. From time to time, Gu Jin would say something that he could not understand at all. Could it be that she was not from Chen?

Xie Ran suppressed his suspicion and asked, "What about the wasp?"

"What a surprise!" Gu Jin blinked her clear eyes and tried to look harmless and innocent. Xie Ran tilted her head to look at her with an expression that said, "Do you think I'm trustworthy?"

Seeing that he couldn't get away with it, Gu Jin narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "I did do a little trick."

She just went to the laboratory to get a bottle of bee attractant, and sprayed it on Princess Jingmin and Yunbi while the chaos was going on. In order to punish Yunbi for talking too much, she sprayed her a few more times.

"Are you angry?" Gu Jin asked, tilting his head.

Xie Ran nodded.

Seeing this, Gu Jin put away the smile on his face in displeasure. Am I not allowed to fight back when being bullied?

If the money earned was so meager, she would not serve!

"I'll take you somewhere."

"Where?"

Xie Ran looked at her deeply and said faintly, "A place that lets you know how much your husband is worth."
