Chapter 161: Driven Out of the Palace



Empress Zhang has always been outstanding in talent and has a place in the harem. She would write some love poems every day and bring them to the emperor.

This is just a little romance between the two of them. The Emperor may not necessarily read the love poems sent by Empress Zhang, but this time, Empress Zhang must ensure that the Emperor will see it.

So Empress Zhang gave the love poem to her daughter, Princess Silin, and asked her to take it to the Emperor.

"Mother, I'll go right away." Princess Silin was simple and innocent. She did not suspect anything and happily came to the imperial study with the love poem her mother wrote to her father.

Although the emperor had several daughters over the years, his favorite was Princess Silin, so when he heard that she was coming, he had someone bring her in.

"Father, I ate a delicious piece of honey pastry today, so I brought it to share with you." Princess Silin has a very likable personality. She happily took the pastry in her hand and gave it to the emperor.

Originally, the emperor was in a bad mood because of the matter between Lin Zhan and Jun Beiqi, but when he saw Princess Silin, the expression on his face eased a little.

"Really? Since Silin said that the pastry is delicious, I will try it." The emperor said very politely, taking the pastry from Princess Silin's hand and taking a bite.

Taking advantage of the emperor's good mood, Princess Silin took out the love poem that Empress Zhang wrote to the emperor.

"It turns out that Silin is a messenger boy today." The emperor said half-jokingly and scratched Princess Silin's nose.

Then the emperor took the paper, opened it, and a letter fell lightly to the ground, causing him to frown slightly. The eunuch next to him was very discerning and quickly picked up the letter.

And it was handed to the emperor. When the emperor saw that the letter was supposed to be addressed to Jun Beiqi, his face turned cold and he opened the letter and began to read.

The emperor's expression became uglier and slammed the table. Even Princess Silin in his arms was startled and began to tremble.

At this moment, Empress Zhang also came to the imperial study in a panic, and looked at the letter on the table with some nervousness in her eyes.

"Where did this letter come from?" The emperor picked up the letter and asked Empress Zhang directly.

Madam Zhang knelt down quickly and said in a hurried tone, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I wanted to destroy this letter, but I didn't expect the princess to take the paper that contained the letter."

"In other words, you know who wrote the letter to whom, and you have guessed the content of the letter, so you want to destroy it and don't want me to see it." The emperor immediately understood the hidden words in Empress Zhang's mouth, and his face became even more gloomy.

Madam Zhang knelt there, wanting to speak but stopping herself, and then, as if she had made up her mind, she said, "Your Majesty, I have long noticed that Lin Zhan and the Crown Prince are not behaving themselves, and that they have had close contacts in private. However, I do not want to worry Your Majesty, so I want to intercept their letters and destroy them."

"I just want to share the emperor's worries." Empress Zhang said with a look of consideration for the emperor.

The emperor sat there, his anger rising, and then he left the imperial study directly.

"Mother, father seems very angry." Princess Silin shrank into Empress Zhang's arms with some fear.

Madam Zhang smiled complacently, stroked Princess Silin's hair, and said, "It's okay, you did a good job and helped mother a lot."

On the other side, the emperor came directly to Hanfang Pavilion, and then faced the confused Lin Zhan and gave an order. "Come here, drive Lin Zhan out of the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Imperial Guards quickly stepped forward and held down Lin Zan.

"Your Majesty's brother-in-law, I don't know what I did wrong. Why does your Majesty want to drive me out of the palace?" Lin Zan said hurriedly.

The emperor threw the forged letter in front of Lin Zhan without saying anything, and was so angry that he was shaking all over. "You still say you didn't do anything. Originally I had no evidence, but now this letter is in front of me, and you still dare to say you didn't seduce the prince."

Looking at the letter that fell lightly in front of him, Lin Zhan quickly took a closer look, and was shocked to find that although the handwriting on the letter was his, the words were not written by him.

Suddenly, Lin Zhan realized that she had been framed by someone, but it was too late to explain. She was dragged out of the palace by the Imperial Guards.

Lin Zan's frail body was thrown heavily outside the palace gate by the imperial guards.

Upon learning of this, Liu Qiuchan hurriedly dragged her pregnant body to ask for an audience with the emperor to plead for Lin Zan.

But at this moment, the emperor had made up his mind and no one's plea would be of any use. He even refused to see the queen.

Liu Qiuchan in Kangfu Palace was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Finally, the person who asked for information came back. "How is it? Does Zhan'er have a place to stay outside the palace now?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Miss Lin has her own business outside the palace. Although she was kicked out of the palace, she is now living in an inn and is fine." The eunuch who was inquiring for the news said hurriedly.

Hearing that Lin Zan had already checked into the inn, Liu Qiuchan breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered the Liu family to send some gold and silver jewelry to Lin Zan in case of any emergency.

Lin Zhan, who was driven out of the palace at the moment, knew nothing about the situation in the palace. She frowned and said to Lang Ya beside her, "Lang Ya, there are still a lot of my things in Hanfang Pavilion. Go into the palace, take those things out, and give this letter to the Queen."

After saying that, Lin Zan handed a letter to Langya, wanting him to take it to Liu Qiuchan.

Langya nodded, and in a flash, he left the inn.

About a cup of tea later, there was a knock on the door of the inn, and Lin Zhan immediately asked vigilantly. "Who is it?"

"Little girl, it's me." A familiar voice sounded outside the door. Lin Zan's face lit up with joy and he quickly opened the door. Standing at the door was Murong Hui, the young master of Baitong Pavilion.

Murong Hui stepped in, looked at the environment inside the inn, and curled his lips in disdain. "Since you have been kicked out of the palace, why don't you come with me to Baitong Pavilion? Why hide here and suffer?"

"I think you want to lock me up in Baitong Pavilion, and then let me suppress the poison in your body anytime and anywhere." Lin Zhan directly saw through Murong Hui's thoughts and rolled his eyes.

Murong Hui looked at her seriously and said, "You are a guest of honor in my Baitong Pavilion. Everyone in Baitong Pavilion respects you. But in the palace, you are just a nobody."

"Now the emperor has driven you out of the palace, without any regard for the kindness of your deceased sister. You'd better come with me." Murong Hui said with a bit of lust in his words.
