Chapter 379 Xie Hanchuan conceals his marriage to the Sixth Princess; Lin Luoxi wants a divorce.
Lin Luoxi generously allowed Zhao Ximo to give the two of them the pills she had mentioned.
"Hmm, it also has a floral scent!" As soon as she got the pills, Zhao Mingzhu opened them and smelled them.
"These are made from traditional Chinese medicine. Some are made from leaves, and some are made from flowers. It's normal for them to have a floral fragrance."
"These pills I gave you are the kind that are sold to the ladies of the palace. How about that? Aren't I good enough?"
Lin Luoxi smiled as she looked at the two of them. This pill contained space water, making it much more effective.
“Yes, yes, we know you’re the best…” Zhao Mingzhu and Li Muqing replied in unison.
Ah, it's best to be family with Lin Luoxi; they always get all the benefits.
If it weren't for their relationship with Lin Luoxi, they probably wouldn't have been able to buy it.
Zhao Mingzhu and Li Muqing ate dinner at the Xie family's place before leaving.
Xie Hanchuan had already gone to the capital to take the imperial examination, and Lin Luoxi was alone at home. She felt a bit empty, so in the end, she went into her spatial dimension.
"Xingman, you're so kind to make my bed so comfortable!" Lying on the soft bed, surrounded by the natural scent of wood, Lin Luoxi felt completely relaxed.
"Roar!" The white tiger, which had been used as a blanket by Lin Luoxi, roared indignantly.
He was clearly lying on it, yet he praised the snake for being considerate. It's infuriating!
"Oh, I almost forgot, it's Xiaobai!" Lin Luoxi heard Xiaobai's defiant growl and quickly rolled over to gently stroke its fur.
"Hoo..." Little White, who was enjoying being stroked, forgave Lin Luoxi and hummed contentedly.
Considering that Lin Luoxi was already pregnant, Baihu had to be extremely careful even when turning over.
After playing with the white tiger in the space for a while, Lin Luoxi finally got back to her work.
When she was tired, Lin Xingman would roast chicken and goose for her in her space, and she could drink water from her space when she was thirsty.
Instead of the fetus being affected by physical fatigue, Lin Luoxi's body was in excellent condition thanks to the spiritual items and water she consumed, and the baby in her womb had a very strong life force.
When she was tired, she would sleep in the space, in the wooden suite that Lin Xingman had built for her.
During the day, fearing that the Lin family, Li Muqin, and Zhao Mingzhu would come to her door, Lin Luoxi left her spatial dimension.
Lin Luoxi only chooses to be busy in the space when no one is around and at night.
During her time in the space, Lin Luoxi realized that the spirits and monsters possessed powerful magic.
As soon as the crops in her space matured, Lin Xingman snapped her fingers, and the rice planted in the paddy field automatically threshed and flew into the warehouse.
The rice stalks without rice grains wither automatically in the field, slowly decomposing into excellent inorganic fertilizer, which continues to nourish the next crop of rice seedlings.
Once the peanuts were ripe, Lin Xingman raised her hand, and the entire peanut vine instantly rose into the air. Lin Xingman then made a hand gesture, separating the peanuts from the vines, and the peanuts flew into the warehouse.
...
A month passed, and it should be time for Xie Hanchuan and the others to release their results.
"Er Ya, Er Ya, news has come from the capital..." That day, Lin Luoxi was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun when Lin Wangshi excitedly ran in with a letter.
"Here, this is a letter Han Chuan wrote to you..."
"Your sister-in-law has already read your eldest brother's letter. She said your eldest brother came in second place in the imperial examination..." Madam Lin was beaming with joy when she mentioned that Lin Wenqian had come in second place. She would probably be laughing in her dreams tonight.
"Big brother is really amazing..." Lin Luoxi couldn't wait to open the letter Xie Hanchuan had given her after hearing Lin Wangshi say that.
"Mother, Han Chuan has become the top scholar in the imperial examination." Lin Luoxi's eyes narrowed into crescent shapes as she read the contents of the letter; she was overjoyed.
However, when Lin Luoxi saw the contents of the second letter, she could no longer laugh.
The letter stated that when Xie Hanchuan was selected as the top scholar by the emperor in the palace, the emperor immediately recognized him as a descendant of Xie Xingze and granted him the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness.
Moreover, the Xie family had a marriage agreement with the Sixth Princess back then.
To make amends for his past mistakes, the old emperor wanted Xie Hanchuan to marry the sixth princess.
Xie Hanchuan refused the royal favor, citing that he had been living away from home for many years and had long since married and had children.
"Mother, if I want a divorce, will you agree...?"
When Lin Luoxi saw the contents of Xie Hanchuan's second letter, she suddenly spoke to Lin Wangshi, who was still overjoyed.
Lin Luoxi's words were like a thunderclap, and the excited smile on Lin Wangshi's face disappeared.
"Why are you suddenly saying such unlucky things?" Madam Lin thought Lin Luoxi was possessed by an evil spirit and kept looking her over.
"Mother, you don't need to look at me like that. I'm fine. It's Xie Hanchuan who's in trouble..."
After saying that, she showed Lin Wangshi the letter Xie Hanchuan had written to her.
Since her family's circumstances improved, Lin Wangshi has been studying hard. Now, she is knowledgeable, literate, and erudite.
Lin Wangshi took the letter from Lin Luoxi, and upon reading it, her eyes widened instantly. She was so shocked that she covered her mouth with her hand, unable to close it, because of the shock of the exorbitant price.
"This, this..."
"Mother, you didn't expect this, did you? I didn't expect it either. I used to hate being a concubine, a mistress who interferes in other people's relationships."
"I never imagined that one day I would become the mistress I hate the most."
As Lin Luoxi finished speaking, tears streamed down her face.
She used to think that everyone had their own secrets, and after spending many years with Xie Hanchuan, she also knew that Xie Hanchuan had secrets.
When Li Muqing appeared, she vaguely guessed that Xie Hanchuan was related to the Xie family that had been wiped out twenty years ago.
At the time, I thought she was going to help Xie Hanchuan deal with those who framed the Xie family.
She was so sincere, yet Xie Hanchuan still kept such important news from her.
hehe……
"Daughter, it's okay. If you can't get over this, you can come back after the divorce. You'll still be our daughter..."
When Madam Lin saw Lin Luoxi shed tears for the first time, it broke her heart.
They never expected Xie Hanchuan to be such a scoundrel, actually hiding such a big thing from their daughter.
He held Lin Luoxi tightly, feeling sorry for her, unsure how to comfort her.
Feeling that the clothes in her arms were already wet, Lin Wangshi gritted her teeth and said to Zhao Ximo, who was standing guard beside her:
"Ximo, pack up your young lady's things and let's go home!"
Having a marriage agreement with a royal princess is not something Xie Hanchuan can simply refuse. The old emperor felt that Xie Hanchuan had trampled on the dignity of the royal family.
At the time, they verbally told Xie Hanchuan to go back and think about it.
However, royal personnel have already been dispatched to guard the inn where Xie Hanchuan and his group are staying.
When the emperor recognized Xie Hanchuan and revealed that Xie Hanchuan was engaged to the sixth princess, Lin Wenqian was filled with boundless rage towards Xie Hanchuan.
However, since he was in the Hall of Supreme Harmony at the time, he couldn't cause trouble for Xie Hanchuan and could only endure it.
