Chapter 381 The promiscuous Sixth Princess Wants to Find a Man to Take Her Back

The tenants watching the commotion outside couldn't help but add their own dramatic interpretations when they saw Xie Hanchuan making a good appearance.

I think Xie Hanchuan must have been moved by the Sixth Princess's expression and was about to respond to her.

"Sixth Princess, you said you were waiting for me?"

"Back then, my entire Xie family was murdered by villains. You must have gone to great lengths to help us find evidence to overturn the verdict!"

The more Xie Hanchuan spoke, the colder his gaze became towards the Sixth Princess.

"Yes, Brother Hanchuan, back then..." The Sixth Princess didn't expect Xie Hanchuan to not be fooled by her acting. Instead, he brought up his family's wrongful case, catching the Sixth Princess off guard.

"So many years have passed, has the Sixth Princess found any evidence against the villain?" Xie Hanchuan knew that the culprit who framed their family was none other than the Sixth Princess's mother.

"Sixth Princess, there are some things I haven't said outright because I'm concerned about the royal family's reputation."

"But please, Princess, don't try to fool me like a three-year-old. Some things, some truths, you know, and I know..."

"When my Xie family was wiped out, it was twenty years ago. Back then, you and I were still babies, too young to even control our bodily functions. And you're telling me you're deeply in love with me?"

When Xie Hanchuan finished speaking, he glanced up and down at the Sixth Princess, finally fixing his gaze on her lower abdomen, and then remained silent.

Seeing the Sixth Princess's expression change, he turned around and went back to his room with satisfaction.

The door slammed shut with a "bang!" regardless of what the people outside thought.

Xie Hanchuan's words left the onlookers completely bewildered, but seeing the Sixth Princess's pale face, they realized that the matter might not be as simple as it seemed.

This concerns the royal family; we can't just watch this spectacle carelessly.

The astute onlookers quietly slipped away from the crowd and returned to their rooms when Xie Hanchuan mentioned the royal family.

Watching the royal family's spectacle could cost them their heads; they didn't have any powerful backing. Preserving their lives was the priority.

The sixth princess had grown up so big in the palace, so she must have been quite shrewd. When Xie Hanchuan's gaze was fixed on her lower abdomen, she felt a chill run down her spine.

Fearing that Xie Hanchuan would expose her secret in public, she put on a show of deep affection in front of Xie Hanchuan's door before returning to the palace in a grand procession with her maids and guards.

In the stillness of the night—

It's unclear what the Sixth Princess said to the old emperor after returning to the palace, but it caused the old emperor to fly into a rage.

He also said that he would teach Xie Hanchuan a lesson after tomorrow.

When the Sixth Princess returned to report to Consort Liu, Consort Liu slapped her across the face and scolded her for not being able to handle such a small matter.

If she delays any longer and Xie Hanchuan doesn't take her in, her belly will get bigger, and she will become a laughing stock in the world.

Consort Liu was furious with her daughter. How could she have given birth to such a lewd and obscene daughter who had slept with so many male lovers at such a young age?

He was a womanizer and didn't take any precautions, resulting in so many abortions.

Today I was hoping to get Jin Ke's top student to take over, but who knew that the guy surnamed Xie was no simpleton and wouldn't take the bait at all.

After being slapped by Consort Liu, the Sixth Princess harbored resentment towards Xie Hanchuan, blaming him for being so ungrateful.

Upon returning here, the sixth princess in the palace conceived a wicked plan.

He immediately took out money and sent one of his male lovers to hire an assassin to go to Xie Hanchuan's hometown, Quanshan County, to kill Xie Hanchuan's wife...

Xie Hanchuan was unaware that because he defied the imperial decree to marry the princess, he incurred the wrath of the old emperor, the sixth princess, and Consort Liu.

In the dead of night, three groups of assassins set off simultaneously from the palace.

"Brother, do you want to go back? I need to go back tonight..."

Xie Hanchuan knew the royal family's pettiness, so after everyone in the inn had fallen asleep, he climbed through the window into Lin Wenqian's room.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wenjin and Yang Xiaofeng were also in Lin Wenqian's room.

"What are you doing here?!" Lin Wenqian was still furious. Seeing Xie Hanchuan, he was already being quite generous by rushing up and beating him up.

"Brother, I plan to set off tonight and return to Quanshan County."

Xie Hanchuan had a gut feeling that if he didn't hurry back to Quanshan County tonight to explain to his wife, he would definitely lose Lin Luoxi.

He knew Lin Ruoxi's personality; if she knew he was engaged to the Sixth Princess, she would definitely try to stay away from him.

Given his understanding of the royal family, he feared that Lin Luoxi, and the people of Wutong Village, were no longer safe.

"Oh, so you're not here being your top scholar anymore, but instead you're all lovey-dovey with your sixth princess, becoming her consort..."

Today, the sixth princess was practically pressed against Xie Hanchuan, but Xie Hanchuan didn't push her away. Based on this alone, Lin Wenqian disliked Xie Hanchuan very much.

"Big brother, please don't make fun of me. Twenty years ago, it was an arranged marriage between my mother, his mother, and Liu Fei. I wasn't even born yet at that time."

"In addition, my family was massacred twenty years ago, and my mother didn't even have time to tell me about this marriage. So naturally I didn't know that I was engaged to the Sixth Princess."

Xie Hanchuan felt extremely wronged when he thought about this, but when he saw Lin Wenqian glaring at him with eyes that were practically spitting fire, he had no choice but to explain.

"If I had known about this, I wouldn't have come to the capital to take the imperial examination." Xie Hanchuan was filled with regret.

He thought the Xie family from twenty years ago had been forgotten by the court, which is why he wanted to take the imperial examination to become the top scholar so that others would no longer say he was unworthy of Lin Luoxi.

Now things are really messed up; not only has this happened, but he may also lose his wife and children.

"Big brother, do you want to come back with me? If not, I'll set off on my own..."

Xie Hanchuan was so angry that he immediately flew back to Quanshan County to give Lin Luoxi a proper explanation.

"Why don't we all go back?" Lin Wenjin said after thinking for a moment.

All four of them came from Quanshan County. If the emperor wanted to investigate, he would definitely be able to find out.

If Xie Hanchuan leaves, their fate will definitely not be good, so it's better to leave with Xie Hanchuan.

"Alright! Anyway, we've already gotten a ranking, so it wasn't a wasted trip. Let's set off now."

Yang Xiaofeng was also aware of the implications, so he put aside his dissatisfaction with Xie Hanchuan and left the capital together.

“Then let’s set off together, but if we just walk out like this now, we definitely won’t get out of the inn. Let’s disguise ourselves first.”

"What a load of crap, let's just go..." Encouraged by the three, Lin Wenqian put on a very ordinary piece of clothing and flew out through the skylight.

"Damn, that fast?" Lin Wenjin saw that Lin Wenqian had already flown out, so he didn't slack off either. He put on his old clothes and rushed out of the house.

Seeing that Lin Wenjin and Lin Wenqian had both left, Yang Xiaofeng somehow managed to get a bottle of water and poured it on his face.
