Chapter 179: Standing Up for Sisters



At this moment, Wang Lanye is wearing a golden crown and has a picturesque face. Her pretty face becomes even more beautiful and charming with the blessing of bridal makeup.

At a glance, Lin Zhan couldn't help but marvel at her, and walked over and said with emotion, "Sister Wang, you are so beautiful today!"

But just after saying this, Lin Zhan keenly noticed that Wang Lanye's eyes were a little red, and she lowered her head slightly, as if avoiding Lin Zhan's inquiring gaze.

"Why is Sister Lin here?" Wang Lanye turned her head to the side and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, as if she didn't want Lin Zan to see this scene.

But Lin Zhan quickly squatted down, and saw the wetness in Wang Lanye's eyes, and said sternly, "Sister Wang, why are you crying on such a happy day? Did someone bully or look down on you?"

"Sister Lin, you're worrying too much. I'm fine. I was just too happy that I couldn't control my joy." Wang Lanye said with an evasive look, not daring to look Lin Zan in the face.

Lin Zhan could tell at once that she was lying. He stood up and looked at the maid who was standing silently beside her. "You have been serving Sister Wang since you were a child. I think you must be loyal. What happened?"

As soon as he entered the room, Lin Zhan noticed that the maid who came with the dowry had an indignant expression on her face. Now he thought that something must have happened.

As expected, when Lin Zhan asked this, the maidservant couldn't help but speak up for her young lady. "It's all because of His Royal Highness Prince Heng. Before the young lady even entered the palace, she was secretly having an affair with another woman, and even came to provoke our young lady on the day of the wedding."

After the words fell, Lin Zan was shocked, as if he had not expected such a serious thing to happen. Then he frowned and asked, "Who came to provoke Sister Wang on the wedding day?"

"She is the niece of Concubine Qin who was banished to the cold palace, and the adopted daughter of the Qin family, Si Xueyi." The dowry maid still said it under Wang Lanye's gaze.

Lin Zan was quite surprised to hear her words. He didn't expect Si Xueyi to be so arrogant that she came into the bridal room to provoke Wang Lanye on the wedding day.

Lin Zan was so angry that his face turned red. He turned his head to look at Wang Lanye and found that she looked lonely, but had no intention of resisting. He couldn't help but become even angrier.

"Sister Wang, why didn't you tell me what happened? And why did you endure it in silence?" Lin Zan asked Wang Lanye angrily.

Wang Lanye's tears flowed down like crazy, and she choked up and said, "What if I tell Sister Lin? After Concubine Qin was banished to the cold palace, the prince brought Si Xueyi into the palace and took care of her personally."

"Besides, before the wedding, the prince also told me that Si Xueyi would live in the palace regardless of whether she got married or not, and asked me not to interfere."

These words shocked Lin Zhan. She never thought that Jun Beiyu would say such words to Wang Lanye before getting married, and Wang Lanye was his legal wife.

Looking at Wang Lanye crying in front of her, Lin Zan couldn't help but sigh. Is this still the bright and sunny Wang Lanye she knew at the beginning? How could things turn out like this?

But Lin Zhan would not sit still and wait for death. She held Wang Lanye's hand tightly and said seriously, "Sister Wang, when you marry into the palace, you will be the mistress of this palace, the principal wife. Si Xueyi is not even a concubine, so it is not your turn to worry."

"But she is the apple of the prince's eye. What can I do?" As expected, Wang Lanye saw through the matter and knew that Jun Beiyu treated Si Xueyi differently.

Lin Zhan gritted his teeth and continued, "So what? Everything means nothing in front of power."

Wang Lanye was startled when she heard the word that came out of Lin Zhan's mouth.

"Sister Wang, don't worry. Today is your big day. I won't let anything disturb your mood." Lin Zhan said firmly, then told Wang Lanye to rest assured and left the bridal chamber.

After leaving the bridal chamber, Lin Zhan clapped her hands, and Lang Ya appeared behind her like a shadow.

"Find Si Xueyi." Lin Zan ordered coldly.

Langya nodded, and in just a short cup of tea, Lin Zhan found out where Si Xueyi lived.

Arriving at the East Courtyard, Lin Zan looked at the pavilions, towers, and various exotic flowers and plants inside, and he knew how much Jun Beiyu valued Si Xueyi.

"This pair of dogs is like a dog-skin plaster that can't be torn apart." Lin Zan's face turned cold when he thought of the collusion between Jun Beiyu and Si Xueyi and the things they had done in the original book.

Lin Zhan strode over directly. The maid inside saw the stranger breaking in, and her eyes widened immediately, and she scolded him, "Who dares to trespass into the East Courtyard?"

"A dog has the right to bark in front of me? Get out." Lin Zhan said bluntly, and the next second Lang Ya threw the maid out.

The sound outside the door naturally startled Si Xueyi who was inside the house. She opened the door in panic and looked out. What surprised Lin Zan was that she was also wearing red clothes.

Moreover, the phoenix crown and cloak worn by Si Xueyi was of the same standard as Wang Lanye's.

This made Lin Zhan laugh so hard that he crossed his arms and said sarcastically, "Why are you wearing such festive clothes, Miss Si? If someone didn't know, they would think it was Miss Si who was getting married to the prince today."

The moment she saw Lin Zhan, Si Xueyi's face became a little stiff, and then she gave an awkward dry laugh and said, "Why is Miss Lin here?"

"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that someone would run to the bridal chamber to mock and threaten my sister Wang on her wedding day." Lin Zan's eyes narrowed slightly, flashing a dangerous light.

Speaking of this matter, Si Xueyi seemed to suddenly gain confidence, and said calmly, "Ms. Lin misunderstood. I just moved into the palace earlier than Miss Wang, so I wanted to pay a visit. I have no other intentions."

"Don't tell me that you were wearing this dress when you went to visit Sister Wang. Could it be that all the propriety, righteousness, integrity and honor that Miss Si learned in Qinglan Courtyard have been eaten up by the dog?" Lin Zan's voice suddenly became sharp and powerful.

Si Xueyi's expression became more and more ugly, and she continued, "Miss Lin, why do you have to vent your anger on me? It's not my fault that the prince dotes on me."

"Haha, you said that the prince dotes on you, that's just right. Today is the prince's wedding day. Why don't I take you to the prince to ask him in person to see if he really dotes on you, dotes on you to the point of letting you commit crimes and forget about hierarchy."
