Lin Ruyi was not very surprised by this rumor, after all, according to the power of Prince Jin's Mansion, it would be too easy to make Huo Tingxue obedient.

Although Huo Tingxue said before that she would marry the prince as a concubine, she has not entered the palace yet.

And the prince is not a fool, if he offends Prince Jin at such a critical moment, his position as prince may be suspended.

So it was impossible for him to stand up for Huo Tingxue, and Huo Tingxue's father was only a fifth-rank official, so he couldn't fight against Prince Jin's residence at all.

Moreover, letting Huo Tingxue go to get married, their family also gained a lot of benefits.

Huo Tingxue's father was directly promoted to four ranks, from the fifth rank to the third rank, and her brother also went to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and there were many rewards, gold, silver and jewels. .

But this matter has nothing to do with Lin Ruyi, and she didn't ask much.

Who knew that Huo Tingxue actually found her. She had just had breakfast that day when someone came to report that Huo Tingxue was begging to see her outside the residence.

Lin Ruyi didn't know why Huo Tingxue was looking for her at this time, the relationship between the two of them didn't seem to be enough to meet privately.

The previous few meetings were not very pleasant, and now she came to find herself, I'm afraid there will be nothing good.

"I don't see you." Since she knew that the other party had no good intentions, why did she want to see her? She wasn't out of her mind.

"Then I'll send her away." Chunlu said.

Lin Ruyi nodded and continued to put the flowers in the vase, but her mood was not as good as before.

Chunlu went away for a while, and came back in a hurry.

He looked a little nervous, as if something had happened.

"Ma'am, Ms. Huo refused to leave, and said she wanted to see you. I said you were not feeling well, but she said that the emperor promised her a request, and she insisted on seeing you now." Chunlu said quietly, secretly watching Lin Ruyi's expression.

Lin Ruyi frowned slightly, since this man has brought up the emperor to talk about something, she must not be able to refuse.

"In that case, let her come in. I want to see what she can say." Lin Ruyi said to Chunlu.

Chun Lu nodded, then turned around and went out to look for Huo Tingxue.

After waiting for a while, Chunlu brought Huo Tingxue in. She was wearing a snow-white skirt, only a few orchids were embroidered on the bottom of the skirt, her waist was full of grip, and her palm-sized face seemed to be even thinner. It seemed that the eyes were bigger, and the originally beautiful eyes seemed to have lost their luster at this moment, dull like a pool of stagnant water.

Huo Tingxue walked in, and when she saw Lin Ruyi, the maid behind her suddenly yelled, "You're not polite when you see the princess, is that the general's mansion that doesn't know the rules?"

Lin Ruyi saw that she was here to show her off. She had just been named princess, and she started to show off.

She got up lazily, glanced at Huo Tingxue, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I'm heavy, and I don't need to salute when I see the princess, so I neglected the princess. Don't blame the princess, I will salute you right away." .”

Chunlu walked up to her and carefully supported her.

Just when she was about to curtsy, Huo Tingxue spoke.

"No need, Mrs. Chu is pregnant, if anything goes wrong with the baby in her womb, I can't take responsibility." Huo Tingxue said aloud, but her tone was a bit strange.

He was still staring at her stomach when he was talking, his eyes were a bit dark.

Lin Ruyi's back felt a little chilled by Huo Tingxue's gaze, and she subconsciously reached out to protect her stomach.

Huo Tingxue looked at it for two seconds, then looked away, walked over to the chair over there and sat down.

"Madam Chu, I have a few words to say to you alone, can you ask your people to go out?" Huo Tingxue asked.

Lin Ruyi frowned, Huo Tingxue's eyes were filled with panic just now, now she proposes to talk to herself alone, she is naturally unwilling.

"The princess doesn't need to worry. My people are very strict with their mouths. They dare not say a word of what you said." She was afraid that Huo Tingxue would really harm the child in her womb, so she refused to agree.

But Huo Tingxue did not let go, and insisted: "If what I want to say is heard by a third person, Mrs. Chu should hold back."

Seeing what Huo Tingxue said, Lin Ruyi immediately lowered her face and said, "I'm not interested in what the princess said. If you don't want to say it, you can just ask back. If you want to say it, just say it."

Her attitude was firmer than Huo Tingxue's tone, and she was just about to drive her away.

Huo Tingxue frowned, seeing Lin Ruyi's firm attitude, she had no choice but to ask, "Is it your idea to let me go to Tianchi country to get married?"

Of course Lin Ruyi would not admit it, and said flatly: "You think highly of me, I am just a woman, and I can't influence the affairs of the court."

Hearing Lin Ruyi's denial, Huo Tingxue sneered, and said, "Really? How did I hear that you have an unusual relationship with the eldest son of Prince Jin's Mansion, but he brought you here to the capital. If you hadn't given him a My idea, how could they let me make a marriage. I don't know how I offended Mrs. Chu, let you target me everywhere, and you must kill me to be reconciled."

Huo Tingxue's voice became a little sharp, especially when she looked at Lin Ruyi, which was full of anger and hatred.

Chunlu was always beside Lin Ruyi, looking at Huo Tingxue defensively, afraid that she would do something to hurt Lin Ruyi, so she didn't dare to let go.

"Could it be that the princess misunderstood, when did I target you? I didn't know you before, and I didn't offend you. As for the marriage, I'm a woman in the back house, do you think I can control it? As for my relationship with the eldest son How, there is no need to tell you." Lin Ruyi said unhurriedly.

Huo Tingxue sneered, "Oh, I heard that you only found out you were pregnant when you came to the capital, the child in your belly..."

Chunlu couldn't bear it anymore, and said directly: "The princess can eat food randomly, but can't talk nonsense, our wife is innocent, and the child belongs to our general."

"Open your mouth and let you speak, you poor maid." Huo Tingxue stopped pretending now, showing an ugly face, and ordered the maid behind her to make Chunlu.

"You dare. You'd better make it clear that this is the General's Mansion, not your Huo Mansion. Anyone who dares to beat me will not be able to leave the General's Mansion alive today." Seeing the maid approaching, Lin Ruyi directly scolded Dao, protect in front of Chunlu.

Huo Tingxue saw that Lin Ruyi was protecting her maid so much, and intentionally provoked Lin Ruyi, saying: "Really? Then the princess wants to take a look, Heart, open your mouth."

The maid named Hongtao immediately walked up to Chunlu and raised her hand to hit Chunlu.

Lin Ruyi glared at Hong Tao angrily, Hong Tao felt a little guilty after seeing her, she dared not let go of her raised hand, and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Do it." Huo Tingxue ordered in a deep voice, seeing Hongtao standing stupidly.

Seemingly gaining confidence, Hongtao slapped Chunlu across the face.

But in the next second, she heard her screaming.

Lin Ruyi firmly caught Chunlu's hand, and then backhanded, she heard two clicks, two of her fingers were broken, and she let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Huo Tingxue was obviously shocked by Lin Ruyi's actions, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"Is Princess Yihuan still going to fight? I don't mind if you go to the wedding with your injuries." Lin Ruyi stood upright, her eyes met Huo Tingxue's, and she didn't give an inch.
