Upon hearing this, Nan Huaishuo's eyes suddenly narrowed and he showed an incredible expression.

This woman had previously set him up with Lin Qingrou, forcing him to marry that stupid woman. Moreover, he has not been able to regain the trust of the Queen and the Crown Prince until now, and now they have rejected him bluntly and ruthlessly in person.

How dare she!

But in a flash, there was only shame and anger in his eyes, and his tone was as cold as ice.

"I hope the county lady won't regret it!"

Even if she regretted it, Nan Huaishuo would not give her a second chance!

Just when Lin Yushu was tripped by Nan Huaishuo, Nan Shuning heard the sound of quarreling coming from the other side of the flowers.

"Men and women should not touch each other, I hope the Sixth Princess will respect herself."

There was a hint of anger in one man's voice.

"Oh? Could it be that in Master Lin's eyes, I am not as good as your tomboy cousin?"

"I don't mean that..."

"Then why are you hiding from me? You hide from me when you go to court, hide from me when you leave court, hide from me when you return home, and still hide from me when you attend palace banquets!"

Nan Yanran became sadder as she spoke, and looked at Lin Ling with red eyes.

"Tell me what's wrong with me, and I'm willing to change it for you!"

Lin Ling seemed to have made up his mind and closed his eyes.

"I have no intention towards the princess, I hope the princess will let me go!"

Hearing this, the tenderness and grievance on Nan Yanran's face disappeared instantly, leaving only coldness and anger.

"Oh, from childhood to adulthood, I have never failed to get what I set my eyes on! Since you are so ungrateful..."

As she was speaking, there was a rustling sound coming from behind the flowers. Nan Shuning could not help but look through the gap between the flowers, and her face instantly turned red with shame.

Nan Yanran took off her top, revealing a royal-colored bellyband and a large area of ​​well-maintained white skin.

Seeing this, Lin Ling turned around quickly, blushed, and sternly scolded, "Princess, please respect yourself!"

Unexpectedly, Nan Yanran took two steps behind him and hugged Lin Ling from behind.

Lin Ling's body suddenly stiffened. He wanted to struggle, but found that the more he moved, the more he would touch Nan Yanran's delicate flesh. He was so frightened that he dared not move.

"Why are you blushing, Lin Lang? Why don't we just go and ask our father for justice? How can I live my life in the future if you treat me so frivolously?"

Lin Ling was so angry at Nan Yanran's shameless behavior.

But at this time, anyone who saw them like this would think that Lin Ling was bullying Nan Yanran, and then he would have no choice but to marry him!

Lin Ling was used to the life of fighting on the battlefield, but now he encountered a princess who framed him with her own body. He was completely at a loss. He was so angry that his throat was choked and there was even a bloody smell in his mouth.

Nan Shuning couldn't bear it anymore. After all, Lin Ling was Lin Yushu's brother, a cavalry general who had just made great military achievements. How could he endure such humiliation!

"Sixth cousin must have gone mad. How could she be so rude to the general?"

Nan Yanran was startled when she heard this, and turned to look at Nan Shuning who was slowly walking towards her from the side of the flowers, with an unhappy look on her face.

She slowly loosened her arms around Lin Ling and straightened her torn clothes, feeling angry that Nan Shuning had ruined her good fortune.

"I was wondering who it was. It turns out to be my cousin, Nan! Shu Ning."

When Nan Shuning heard Nan Yanran mocking her life experience, her face darkened.

"A woman should love herself and be kind to herself. She should not do anything that would bring shame to her parents and ancestors. Didn't the Queen teach you this?"

Hearing this, Nan Yanran's smile disappeared instantly. She looked disdainful and mocked Nan Shuning viciously.

"I don't need a bastard like you to teach me the truth! Don't think that just because you are favored by the Queen Mother, people will forget your dirty origins. You are just a bastard left by the lowly Tuoba clan. How dare you be named Nan!"

"If I were you, I would take this opportunity to go to Northern Liao and marry the Northern Liao prince. I would become my own father's sister-in-law. This is the fate that a lowly creature like you deserves!"

"you!"

Nan Shuning was so angry at her crude curse that her eyes turned red and her lips trembled uncontrollably.

With a "pop" sound, Nan Shuning was stunned.

Lin Ling slapped Nan Yanran hard!

Even though he had been harassed, pestered, and even framed by Nan Yanran, he had never been so angry. But she had just ridiculed a beautiful woman in such a way that Lin Ling's anger suddenly got out of control. He, who never hit a woman, accidentally slapped Nan Yanran in the face.

After the fight, Lin Ling himself was stunned.

Nan Yanran covered her blushing cheeks and stared at Lin Ling in disbelief.

"Okay! Lin Ling, just wait for me!"

After saying that, Nan Yanran turned around and ran away. Lin Ling looked at his hands, still a little dazed.

"Mr. Lin, Nan Yanran has always been lawless and vindictive. You hit her this time, so you must be careful of her revenge in the future."

Nan Shuning's concerned words finally brought Lin Ling back to his senses. He shook his hands and didn't care much.

"It doesn't matter. I've wanted to beat her up for a long time."

"Pfft~"

Nan Shuning couldn't help but laughed out loud.

Yes, she had long wanted to beat up the Sixth Princess who had bullied her since she was a child.

Nan Shuning's smile was beautiful, like a ray of sunshine shining from behind the clouds in the morning, instantly illuminating Lin Ling's eyes...

After admiring the flowers for a while and sipping some tea, night finally fell.

Emperor Ming and the Empress Dowager appeared again and led everyone to a tall platform in the palace.

Officials, sons, and ladies stood neatly on either side of Emperor Ming and the Empress Dowager according to their ranks. They all looked up at the sky where the sunset glow was gradually disappearing, and talked excitedly.

Fireworks are a beautiful sight that only the powerful and wealthy can enjoy, while ordinary people can only glimpse a corner of the dazzling brightness outside the tall walls.

The fireworks used in major celebrations and festivals in the palace are rare treasures. Even the powerful and wealthy would yearn for them and can’t wait to see the beautiful sight that will soon bloom in the night sky.

Lin Yushu was unusually uneasy. She had just seen Shen Mutang trembling with nervousness. How could he be trusted if he was so timid?

It doesn't matter if she can't be trusted. Lin Yushu has always relied on herself. She turned around and asked Leng Dai, "Did you get the Night Pearl?"

Leng Dai nodded gently.

Lin Yushu felt relieved. As long as she had this night pearl, she would be able to save her life.

As long as there is life, there are endless possibilities.

"Whoosh...bang!"

Colorful fireworks bloomed in the night sky, and the fireworks ceremony began!

The first fireworks that rose into the sky were just ordinary flower shapes and were not complicated, but as time went on, the shapes and colors of the fireworks became more and more complex.

Until a huge firework rose into the night sky and the huge bang was deafening.

Then, fireworks of seemingly no shape spread out in the night sky like a bright screen.

"What kind of fireworks are these?"

The doubts that just arose in the minds of the crowd instantly turned into exclamations!

"Look, look!"

"That's...what is that?!"
