On the day of the banquet, the palace was bustling with activity and brightly lit.
Lin Han and Wei Yuchen sat at the top, admiring the graceful dance moves of the dancers below.
At this moment, Lin Han suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She gestured to Wei Yuchen beside her and then left the table alone.
Lin Han walked alone on the path in the Imperial Garden, breathing in the fresh air around her, and only then did she feel much more comfortable.
But fate had other plans. As Lin Han was walking, someone suddenly came towards her and bumped into her.
"ah!"
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, ma'am, are you alright?"
It was Jia Yan who bumped into the person; she was helping Lin Han up from the ground.
Because of the dim lighting, Jia Yan couldn't see Lin Han's face clearly at first.
However, he judged that she was a wealthy and powerful woman by touching the fabric of her clothes, and that's why he immediately apologized.
But after she helped Lin Han up from the ground and saw her face clearly, she immediately exclaimed, "It's you!"
"Keep your voice down, you're going to rupture my eardrums," Lin Han said to Jia Yan, covering her ears in dissatisfaction.
"Oh, you! Did you sneak in here? And you even dared to steal other ladies' clothes! I'll kick you out!" Jia Yan grabbed Lin Han's wrist and prepared to drag her out.
"Miss, it's fine if your head is empty, but it's unacceptable if it's waterlogged." Lin Han forcefully shook off her hand, crossed her arms, and looked at her coldly.
"Hmph, you can keep relying on your mouth. Wait until I call the guards over, then let's see how you handle this." Jia Yan didn't take Lin Han's mockery seriously at all and said arrogantly.
After she finished speaking, taking advantage of the fact that weapons were not allowed in the palace and Lin Han could not hurt her with a sword, she directly pushed Lin Han and tried to tear off her clothes.
“You’re just a lowly commoner, what right do you have to wear such nice clothes? Take them off right now!” Jia Yan shouted as she pulled at the clothes.
Lin Han was already feeling a bit dizzy, and with that sudden push, although she didn't fall down directly, she accidentally twisted her ankle.
As Jia Yan prepared to tear off his clothes, he exhaled a slight breath, loosened his joints, grabbed her hair, and started beating her.
"If I don't plant you in a flowerpot today, you won't know what a vegetable is! You like to use your hands so much, huh? Today I'll let you use your hands to your heart's content!"
Lin Han grabbed Jia Yan and started hitting her acupoints, hitting the ones that hurt the most, until she was screaming in pain.
Jia Yan also felt that it was too embarrassing to be beaten by Lin Han, so she turned around and scratched Lin Han.
But Lin Han dodged them all. She even went around behind Jia Yan, lifted her skirt, and kicked her in the butt.
He kicked Jia Yan directly into the flower bed, where she landed upside down.
At this moment, Jia Yan was covered in wounds; her carefully applied makeup was now smeared with tears, and the hairpins in her hair had left numerous scratches on her face.
Although it was a one-sided beating, the excessive force of the movement made her already injured foot even worse.
Because Jia Yan's screams were so loud, and Lin Han's beating of her was also quite loud, it directly attracted the attention of everyone at the banquet.
General Jia followed the crowd over and immediately saw Jia Yan in the flower bed. He quickly went over to her.
"Yan'er, what happened to you?" General Jia helped Jia Yan up from the flower bed and asked with concern.
