Chapter 62: Losing both the wife and the army



"I clearly had good intentions in helping Si Xueyi solve her hidden illness, so I cooked so many medicinal foods for her to eat. I didn't expect that she not only misunderstood me, but also accused me of poisoning her. I was really wronged. I feel so upset!"

Lin Zhan pretended to look pitiful, and covered his little heart sadly with an expression of hurt.

No matter what, this matter was indeed a misunderstanding of Lin Zhan, and the emperor felt guilty. After all, he did suspect Lin Zhan before.

When he thought of this, the emperor picked up Lin Zhan and said a few words of comfort in a gentle voice. "It is true that Concubine Qin was wrong in this matter. I will let Concubine Qin apologize to you."

"Your Majesty, I did nothing wrong. Why should I apologize to a little kid?" Concubine Qin said coquettishly while standing there, but was given a cold look by the emperor.

It's not that easy to suppress and slander me. Today I will make you lose both the wife and the army.

Lin Zan thought with a snort in his heart, but he didn't know that Jun Beiqi heard his thoughts clearly.

Jun Beiqi also didn't mind giving Lin Zhan a helping hand, so he stood up and bowed to the emperor and said, "Father, I think that Concubine Qin has generalized and slandered Miss Lin based on the surface. This is indeed inappropriate, and Miss Lin has been wronged. She should be compensated."

After Lin Zan finished speaking, his eyes lit up instantly. He really didn't expect that Jun Beiqi was so understanding. Before he could say anything, Jun Beiqi took the initiative to bring it up.

The emperor nodded slightly while holding Lin Zhan, and then said to Concubine Qin with a cold face. "Concubine Qin, before you find out the truth of the matter, you slander Xiao Zhan'er for causing unrest in the harem. I will punish you for half a year's salary."

Hearing this, Concubine Qin was shocked. She had never expected that what was originally a done deal was overturned by Lin Zan again.

"Your Majesty, you must not be fooled by this little bitch!" Concubine Qin said half-coquettishly.

The emperor slammed the table in anger. "As the head of a palace, you are so uncultured and magnanimous that you say such foul language in front of me. Since you don't repent, I will fine you one year's salary."

For a whole year, Concubine Qin's Mingde Palace would not receive a penny, which made her face change drastically. She dared not say anything and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.

But the emperor had made up his mind, and with a wave of his hand, he not only fined her a year's monthly salary, but also confined her to Mingde Palace.

Concubine Qin, who had finally been released from house arrest, was placed under house arrest again in the blink of an eye. She became a well-known house arrest professional in the harem and a laughing stock among many concubines.

The culprit behind all this is a little girl who is less than ten years old.

This surprised everyone and frightened them so much that they dared not to cause trouble for Lin Zan again.

And after this incident, Lin Zan naturally kicked Si Xueyi out of his Hanfang Pavilion.

Now that the two of them have gotten to this point, the emperor will naturally not arrange Si Xueyi to stay in Hanfang Pavilion anymore, but will instead expel Si Xueyi from the palace.

In order for her plan to go forward, Concubine Qin pleaded for mercy in every possible way, and finally let Si Xueyi stay in her Mingde Palace.

After doing all this, Lin Zhan looked at the entire Hanfang Pavilion with a refreshed spirit, and couldn't help but smile happily. "I finally pulled out a thorn in my eye. It's really comfortable."

And the compensation that Concubine Qin gave to Lin Zan also arrived soon. It was a huge red coral, which was gorgeous, rare and valuable.

If the Emperor had not personally ordered Concubine Qin to give Lin Zhan a gift to apologize, Concubine Qin would never have given up her beloved thing and given it to Lin Zhan.

Lin Zhan naturally liked such a big red coral very much, and then he sold it.

That's right, she sold them. The treasures bestowed by the emperor were all royal gifts, so Lin Zhan naturally didn't dare to lose or sell them at will. But she didn't have so many concerns about the things given by Concubine Qin.

After selling the red coral, Lin Zhan had a large amount of silver in his hands, so he asked Bixia to secretly leave the palace and exchange all the silver for fields and shops.

These things will be Lin Zhan's basis for survival after she leaves the palace, and must not be lost.

Under the dual protection of the Queen and Jun Beiqi, Lin Zan lived a smooth life in the following days.

Soon, several months passed.

The Northern Qi Dynasty also welcomed the New Year on a snowy day. On the first day of the New Year, officials from all dynasties went to the palace to congratulate the emperor on the New Year.

At the same time, this was a rare lively day in the palace. Lin Zhan got up early in the morning, changed into festive clothes, and had two small buns on his head. A golden bell was tied on each of his hair with red silk, which made a tinkling sound when he walked.

"So beautiful!" Lin Zhan looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Her little face was rosy, her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, and the fat on her face had disappeared a little, making her look more beautiful.

Lin Zhan was naturally happy to wear new clothes for the New Year. The first thing he did after dressing up was to pay his respects to the Queen's palace.

Lin Zhan went there early. When he arrived at Kangfu Palace, the concubines from the palaces had not arrived yet. Liu Qiuchan smiled and stuffed a big red envelope into Lin Zhan's hand and said, "Little clever boy, you came so early, it seems you want a big red envelope."

"Of course an elder sister has to give a big red envelope to her younger sister. It has to be bigger than anyone else's." Lin Zan said in a baby voice, looking very cute and amusing Liu Qiuchan.

Soon, all the concubines in the palace came to pay their respects to the Queen Mother in gorgeous costumes. There were so many people at the scene that Lin Zhan couldn't get a word in, so he secretly went to the back hall to eat and drink.

She also opened the red envelope Liu Qiuchan had given her and found it was full of golden peanuts, and she immediately burst into smiles.

Soon, a palace maid brought Lin Zan to the front hall, where the emperor and other princes were also.

Perhaps it was because it was the New Year, the princes all looked full of energy and radiant, especially Jun Anqing. Lin Zan felt that he seemed to have lost some weight.

While he was thinking, Liu Qiuchan pulled Lin Zan to sit next to Jun Beiqi.

Jun Beiqi's eyes fell on the golden bell on Lin Zhan's head, and then he said, "This golden bell looks a bit delicate."

"Of course, it's not only beautiful, but also pleasant to listen to." Lin Zan said happily, shaking his head like a child, and the golden bells on his head tinkled, like spring water falling on rocks.

Then a head squeezed in between the two people. Jun Anqing had come to Lin Zan's side without knowing when. His eyes were wide open, staring at her face curiously, as if he hadn't seen her for a few days and didn't recognize her.
