Wan Dong poured her a glass of warm water and said, "My lady, drink a glass of water first to calm your nerves."

Shen Ruolan nodded to Wandong, took the water and started drinking.

After a while, after breakfast, Shen Ruolan sat in the yard and began to ponder.

Since she had to keep the child, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death for the child's future. Although General Qin promised to help rescue her last night, she knew in her heart that it would be harder than climbing to the sky to successfully escape from the palace.

After Shen Ruolan thought it over again and again, she stood up and said to Wan Dong: "Dong'er, take me to find the prince."

When Wan Dong heard that the young lady wanted to go find the prince, she hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes, young lady."

On the way to the front yard, Wan Dong asked her young master curiously, "Young master, why did you think of going to see the prince?"

You know, in the past half month, her young lady had been acting like a ferocious beast whenever she saw the prince. As long as the prince approached, she would be so scared that she would run away. Now she suddenly wanted to go find him, which made her a little confused.

Shen Ruolan said to Wan Dong: "I have something to ask him."

"Oh." Seeing that the young lady was unwilling to say more, Wan Dong did not ask any more questions.

In the dining room of the palace, Jiang Dichen and his sister were having breakfast when suddenly a servant came to report to him, "Your Majesty, Concubine Lan wants to see you."

Jiang Dichen, who was drinking porridge, heard Shen Ruolan looking for him, which made him pause for a moment. Before he could say anything, Jiang Yingxue beside him immediately said, "Go tell her that the prince is busy eating and has no time to see her."

"Yes, Princess." After hearing Jiang Yingxue's words, the visitor turned around and left with a respectful look on his face.

Jiang Dichen shouted at the visitor: "Stop!"

The visitor asked Jiang Dichen, "What do you want, my Lord?"

Jiang Dichen was silent for a moment and said, "Let her in."

"Yes, Your Highness." After the man finished speaking, he turned and left.

When Jiang Yingxue heard that her brother wanted to meet that hateful woman, she looked at him with disapproval and said, "Fifth brother, when did you become so easy to talk to? That woman avoided you like the snakes and scorpions, but you tolerated her again and again. You have become so different that I almost don't recognize you anymore."

Jiang Dichen heard what his sister said, frowned, and said to her with an unhappy look on his face: "Xue'er, this is between me and Lan Wanxi, so don't get involved in it in the future."

After he finished speaking, he paused and continued, "I see that you have almost recovered. Eat breakfast and return to the palace as soon as possible."

When Jiang Yingxue heard that she was going back to the palace, she was instantly unhappy. She put down her chopsticks and said to her brother, "I haven't lived here long enough. I won't go back if I don't want to."

At this moment, Shen Ruolan came in from outside and bowed to Jiang Dichen and his sister, saying, "I pay my respects to the prince and the ninth princess."

Jiang Dichen looked at the woman who took the initiative to find him. For some reason, he felt a little happy. But when he thought of her attitude towards him before, the little happy also disappeared. He stared at her in silence for a long time before asking, "Why did you come to see me?"

Shen Ruolan glanced at Jiang Yingxue and said to Emperor Jiang, "I have something to talk to Your Majesty about."

After listening to Shen Ruolan's words, Jiang Dichen said to his sister, "Xue'er, you go down first."

"Fifth brother, I'm not full yet." Jiang Yingxue said reluctantly when she saw her brother wanted to drive her away for a woman.

Jiang Dichen said, "What do you want to eat? Ask the servants to bring some to you."

Jiang Yingxue stood up angrily and said, "Fifth brother, you are too biased now, I will not pay attention to you anymore."

After saying this, she ran out crying.

When Jiang Dichen saw his sister leave, he looked at Shen Ruolan expressionlessly and asked, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Shen Ruolan looked at Jiang Dichen in silence for a long time before she mustered up the courage to say to him, "My Lord, can I make a deal with you?"

Jiang Dichen listened to Shen Ruolan's words, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her, a little surprised and asked: "What deal?"

Shen Ruolan stared into Jiang Dichen's eyes and said word by word: "How about I give you something that can dominate the world in exchange for your position as the principal wife?"

Since she already has children and cannot get rid of this man, she has to do her best to give the children a decent identity and let them grow up without worries.

Jiang Dichen listened to Shen Ruolan's words, he looked her up and down, and asked her with a smile: "My concubine Lan, what do you want to use to exchange the position of the principal wife with me?"

After he finished speaking, he walked closer to her and said, "To be my wife, you must eat and sleep with me while you are alive, and be buried with me after you die. The price of this position is very high."

After Jiang Dichen finished speaking, he deliberately reached out to pull Shen Ruolan, but Shen Ruolan's reaction was the same as usual. When Jiang Dichen touched her, she had already taken several steps back.

Seeing that she was still like this, Jiang Dichen instantly turned cold. He said to Shen Ruolan with a frost on his face: "If you want to be my wife, Jiang Dichen, you, Lan Wanxi, are not qualified."

After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly at Shen Ruolan and strode out, leaving Shen Ruolan standing there with a grim look on her face and her hands clenched into fists under her sleeves.

Jiang Dichen, who had already walked out, suddenly came back and said to Shen Ruolan with disdain: "If I want the world, I can fight for it myself. I don't need any favors from anyone."

Shen Ruolan turned to look at him, took a deep breath, bowed to him and said, "It was my fault for being arrogant and reckless today. Your Majesty, just pretend that I didn't say anything."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer and walked out. Even when she passed by Jiang Dichen, she didn't hesitate at all. She didn't even look at Jiang Dichen and walked away without looking back.

Jiang Dichen looked at the woman's back as she left angrily and couldn't help laughing. Since she disliked him so much and yet wanted to be his wife, was it because he, Jiang Dichen, was easy to talk to, or did Lan Wanxi really have some extraordinary ability that made Jiang Dichen have to marry her?

Jing Yun, who was beside Jiang Dichen, looked at Shen Ruolan's receding back and said to his master, "Master, why didn't you ask what Concubine Lan wanted to exchange with you?"

Jing Yun was different from the other guards, he had seen Shen Ruolan's abilities with his own eyes, so his intuition told him that the thing Shen Ruolan wanted to exchange for her principal wife must be extraordinary. Although they couldn't find out where her medical skills came from, they were very advanced.

Jiang Dichen said to his subordinates without thinking: "I would rather not marry in my whole life than trade this."

If Jiang Di wanted anything, he would fight for it himself and would never exchange it for women's things.

After listening to his master's words, Jingyun nodded and said nothing more.

Yes, my master is so outstanding, how could he use such a deal to exchange for a wife of such a huge difference in status from himself?

At General Qin's Mansion, Zhong Lingzhu learned that Shen Ruolan wanted to escape. She looked at her husband with a conflicted look on her face and said, "My husband, we can help our benefactor in any way she wants, but if we help her escape and King Han finds out, our General's Mansion won't be able to withstand his wrath!"
