Chapter 205 Fragrant Chicken Pot

Xia Jian's next concubine was a prostitute named Ruyan.

In the original plot, this person entered the mansion when the relationship between Shen Lixin and Xia Jian became increasingly strained.

At that time, Chen Lixin and Xia Jian had another quarrel over the heroine and Aunt Zhang. Xia Jian went to the brothel "in a fit of anger" and was "helplessly" entangled by the scheming woman Ruyan. He welcomed her into the house "out of spite" to anger Chen Lixin.

Anyway, remember, it’s definitely not Xia Jian’s fault.

Of course, taking a prostitute into the palace was against the rules. But the King of Zhao even took away a married woman, so what if his son took a prostitute into his family?

So Ruyan entered the mansion.

In the original plot, she and Aunt Zhang fought together to kill Shen Lixin.

However, after Shen Lixin's death, Xia Jian suddenly became sad again. He suddenly realized that he still couldn't bear to leave her.

So Ruyan, as the person who pushed her to death, naturally earned his hatred.

However, he was still very "merciful" and did not really do anything to her. It was she who did not know what was good for her and dared to compete for his favor and play tricks, so she brought disaster upon herself.

Shu Yan shook her head and found the brothel where Ruyan appeared.

At this time, Ruyan had not yet officially started to attract customers, but was just performing for money every day.

Shu Yan found the location of her room in the original plot and slipped in. She was combing her hair in front of the mirror.

She was slightly startled to see the stranger appear.

"you…"

"Shh." Shu Yan shook the token of Prince Zhao's Mansion at her.

It was left for her by the two secret guards. Ruyan saw it and fell silent, even bowing to her.

"Very good." Shu Yan smiled and said, "I feel relieved that he knows how to deal with current affairs."

"My dear..." Ruyan blinked her charming eyes, full of charm: "I wonder what you are looking for Ruyan for~"

"Ruyan, if I remember correctly, your family suffered a famine when you were young, and you were poor and hungry. Your father sold you and your mother, right?"

Shu Yan said slowly, "You were sold to a brothel because you were young, and your mother was too old and ugly, so the brothel refused to accept her. So the traffickers sold her elsewhere."

"You, mother and daughter, never met again."

Ruyan's charming demeanor suddenly disappeared, and she spoke slowly, "What do you want to say?"

Shu Yan simply continued, "Later, your father made a comeback, marrying the county magistrate's daughter, passing the imperial examination, and becoming an official. You tried to reconnect with your father, but he regarded you as a stain and refused to acknowledge you."

"From now on, you swear to use whatever means necessary to cling to any noble person, to use whatever means necessary to seize all the wealth and glory."

"What a pity. Relying on serving men, with your status, I'm afraid you'll never gain real power in this life."

Ruyan's eyes seemed to gleam with blood: "Then tell me, what should I do?"

Shu Yan hooked her finger: "Listen to me, I will help you."

"Follow me, and you can become an official in the future."

"I heard that you are obsessed with money. I wonder if the position of Minister of Revenue is enough to satisfy you?"

Ruyan stared at her for five full sentences, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Good! Good! Good! The great killer who cuts off heads, I like it!"

Her eyes suddenly flicked to Shu Yan's chest. "Since when has a woman been able to sneak in so quietly? And you're carrying the palace token. Could it be that you are the stunning Miss Shen who captivated the prince?"

Shu Yan raised an eyebrow. She could change the number of characters once more today, so she said, "You're quite clever."

She had the system make her look like a man, wear men's clothes, and even spent 5 points to change her voice to a male one, yet she was discovered so quickly.

He is so smart. If he is trained well, he may become a prime minister, hmm.

"It's not that I'm smart." Ruyan smiled and shook her head: "It's just that no one has ever looked at me the way you do. That look makes me feel like I've become a human being again."

"Men here never look at me like this."

......

Ruyan left with Shuyan decisively.

At this time, the two secret guards had already settled Aunt Zhang.

Shu Yan took Ruyan over to change her clothes and dress up again, then told her what she was going to do. With the help of two secret guards, she secretly brought her into the palace.

There is only one chance to change the words today, but it is enough to send the person to Xia Jian.

Shu Yan brought Ruyan to Xia Jian's yard.

Xia Jian fainted from anger after being lectured by a group of servants for half a day.

The servants stood there in confusion, and Shu Yan quickly asked them to call a doctor.

Everyone finally called a doctor to Xia Jian, and King Zhao finally learned about this.

Unfortunately, Aunt Zhang, who scalded Xia Jian, had already run away.

"Catch her! Catch her!" King Zhao was furious. "Dig three feet into the ground for me to catch this vicious woman!"

Shu Yan smiled inwardly and took Ruyan with her: "Your Highness, calm down. The prince has no one to take care of him now. This is Ruyan, the maid in my courtyard. I am willing to give her to the prince."

"Maid?" Prince Zhao glanced at Ruyan three times, his eyes suspicious. "Where did she come from?"

Ruyan is so beautiful. When did such a beautiful girl appear in Shen Lixin's yard?

[King Zhao ordered his servants to verify whether such a person really existed.]

Soon, the servants found out that there was no such person. King Zhao immediately ordered Ruyan to be taken away.

Shu Yan was busy exchanging for an opportunity, changing nothing to something, and changing taking away to staying.

So the servant investigated for a while and came back to report: "Your Highness, there really is a maid named Ruyan in Miss Shen's courtyard. It is this person!"

Prince Zhao looked at Ruyan with a sticky look, but he said, "Okay, then keep her to serve the prince!"

After saying this, his body shook violently.

Hey, why did you say you were giving it to your son when you clearly wanted to take it away yourself?

Forget it. My son is incompetent now anyway. He can just come to see Ruyan in the evening. It’s no big deal.

So Ruyan stayed like this.

…

That night, Xia Jian woke up and was surprised to see a strange woman beside the bed.

“Hiss… Come, someone…” He screamed hoarsely: “Who, who?”

"Prince~" Ruyan considerately brought a bowl of medicine and said, "I am Ruyan, a maid in Miss Shen's courtyard. Aunt Zhang ran away, and Miss Shen was worried that you would be left without anyone to take care of you, so she specially sent me here~"

Xia Jian's eyes suddenly flashed with anger.

That vicious woman, why didn’t she come to apologize herself but sent a maid?

Was this another test for him? If he treated Ruyan well, she would get angry with him again, right?

Then he just doesn't meet her expectations!

He had misjudged this vicious woman. Such a vicious person did not deserve his love.

He stretched out his trembling hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Come here... let me take a look at you."

Ruyan walked closer with a sweet smile and glanced at the Western clock on the wall. The time had already passed the middle mark.

Miss Shen said that after this time, you can do whatever you want to Xia Jian.

So Ruyan came over with the scalding medicine considerately, and then her hand trembled.

"Ouch~"

A bowl of medicine was poured all over the animal that was crowing in Xiajian.

"Ah——" Xia Jian sat up from the bed in pain, his eyeballs almost popping out!

Ah—damn—

He felt like he was being cooked!!
