Now that she was left alone, there was nothing she could do.
Thinking of this, Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "Mom, please help me thank the Queen for her gift."
"Yes, go back!"
Xu Wanyan obediently walked forward a few steps, and sure enough, there was a little palace maid waiting there.
"Miss Xu, it was the Majesty who asked me to wait for you here."
Xu Wanyan nodded, "Thank you, sister."
Just like when she came, after walking for about half an hour, Xu Wanyan arrived at the palace gate.
"Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome, Miss Xu, please walk slowly."
When Qiao Yun saw her young lady coming, she ran over, patting her chest.
"Miss, I'm terrified. The eldest lady and the others have all come out, but you haven't. I asked them, but she still won't say anything."
Qiao Yun's tears flowed down.
Xu Wanyan felt warm in her heart. She knew that Qiao Yun was worried that something might happen to her. How scared she must be being alone outside!
"It's okay, it's okay, I just fell, the Crown Princess called the imperial physician for me."
Xu Wanyan patted Qiao Yun's back gently, trying to calm her down.
"What? Miss, you fell. Are you hurt anywhere?"
Qiao Yun ran to the side and circled around Xu Wanyan, looking everywhere to see if she was injured.
Xu Wanyan laughed dumbly, "I'm fine, look at me, I'm fine."
Seeing her moving freely, Qiao Yun finally felt relieved.
"My lady, I am terrified. It's been such a rollercoaster."
Xu Wanyan smiled and took her hand as they walked towards the carriage. “Look, the Crown Princess has given me something as a reward.”
Now, it was Qiao Yun's turn to be happy. She looked straight at the brocade box in Xu Wanyan's hand.
"Miss, I just looked carefully and saw that all the other ladies went back empty-handed. You are the only one who received a reward, right?"
Xu Wanyan nodded, "Probably."
As soon as the voice fell, Qiao Yun hugged Xu Wanyan and said, "Miss, you are so amazing, so amazing."
Xu Wanyan shook her head helplessly, she really couldn't do anything about Qiao Yun.
"Go back and go to the blacksmith shop again."
Qiao Yun nodded, got into the car quickly, and helped Xu Wanyan in.
"Miss, I am delivering a letter to the eldest lady. It is so scary."
Sitting in the car, Qiao Yun was still frightened when she thought about what happened before.
"What happened?"
"That Young Master Lu's mother... is so scary. When she heard that I was delivering a letter on behalf of the eldest lady, she looked at me like she wanted to eat me."
Now, thinking about that look, she was still a little scared.
Xu Wanyan smiled. No mother could bear to see her son being beaten like that.
What's more, Lu Mingxuan lost his father at a young age and was raised by his widowed mother alone. Naturally, the affection between mother and son... is deeper.
I wonder if Xu Wanqing knows about Lu Mingxuan’s miserable situation.
"Is it not hurting you?"
Qiao Yun shook her head and said thankfully, "It's only because I ran fast, otherwise I would have been scratched by Madam Lu."
After Qiao Yun said this, Xu Wanyan became even more impatient.
I can't wait to see Xu Wanqing's miserable condition, but unfortunately, I have to wait a while.
"Let's go. Don't let anyone know that you helped her deliver the letter."
"Don't worry, young lady. I'm in disguise. No one will recognize me."
“How clever!”

East Palace
"Where are those people?"
Xiao Muhan calculated the time and rushed back to the East Palace from outside, but to his surprise, he didn't see a single person.
Seeing his gloomy face, Lin Yuelan's expression did not change at all, and she said lightly: "Your Highness, they have all gone back."
"Going back?"
Xiao Muhan obviously didn't believe it.
Lin Yuelan nodded, "Ahem, I'll be back soon."
"Didn't I ask you to keep them for a while? Why did they leave?"
Seeing his expression, Lin Yuelan smiled coldly, "Could it be that Your Highness thinks I drove them away?"
"Isn't it? Don't you just want to keep your position as Crown Princess?"
Xiao Muhan approached Lin Yuelan with a cold smile.
Lin Yuelan didn't move, as if she had gotten used to him being like this.
Xiao Muhan grabbed Lin Yuelan's chin and said viciously, "I'm telling you, don't think that just because you have the Lin family's support, I can't do anything to you. You have to give up the position of Crown Princess, whether you want to or not."
After saying that, he suddenly shook his hand away and looked at her with disgust.
"Since Your Highness is so determined, why doesn't he just go and see the girl directly? What's the purpose of going to so much trouble to have all these people here?"
"I don't need you to ask what I want to do. You just need to help me handle these things quietly, and then... wait for death."
Lin Yuelan's eyes throbbed a little, and she endured it for a long time, but finally managed it.
"That may disappoint Your Highness. I still have some time to live."
"Ha, ha ha ha, Lin Yuelan, Lin Yuelan, you have a really tough life!"
After saying that, he kicked over the stool next to him.
Mother Lin, who was outside the door holding a bowl of medicine, heard the sound and rushed in.
"Your Highness, calm down, calm down. The Queen is not in good health. If there is anything that makes you unhappy, take it out on me, the old slave. Please let the Queen go!"
Xiao Muhan gave her a cold look and shouted, "Who do you think you are? Seeing you is simply a disgrace to this prince's eyes."
Then, he glanced at the bowl in Mother Lin's hand and smiled wickedly, "Is this the Crown Princess's medicine?"
"Yes, I just caught it from Doctor Chen."
Xiao Muhan brought it to his nose, sniffed it gently, and then smiled.
He held the medicine bowl, walked to Lin Yuelan's side, pinched her mouth, and said, "Drink it. Don't you want to live longer? Then drink it well."
After saying that, he poured it directly into her mouth without waiting for her.
Lin Yuelan struggled desperately, but her bedridden body was too weak to do anything, so she could only let the medicine flow into her mouth and into her clothes.
"Your Highness..."
Mother Lin couldn't help her young lady and could only wipe away her tears anxiously.
“Crash!”
The sound of a bowl breaking was heard, Xiao Muhan sneered, turned around and walked out.
"My Lady, my Lady, how long will you suffer?"
Mother Lin hugged Lin Yuelan and cried bitterly.
Lin Yuelan did not react, her eyes fixed on the ceiling of the tent.
She was unwilling to be tortured to death by Xiao Muchan.
But what could she do? Xiao Muhan had even bribed the imperial physician. No one disbelieved him. Everyone was probably waiting for the day she would leave.
What would happen to her father and mother if she passed away? They were old, could they still bear the pain of losing their daughter?
Thinking of her parents, Lin Yuelan could no longer hold back her tears, which flowed like a dam breaking.
"My Lady, cry. Maybe you'll feel better after you cry."
