It was with the help of this child that Qingcheng was able to enter the palace.

But in the previous life, because she had already occupied the position of the Crown Prince's Consort, Xiao Jinan took a concubine and gave birth to a child. Although the illegitimate son was born before the legitimate son, which was not a good look, it was still acceptable.

But now he doesn't have the dignity of a legitimate wife. If he takes a concubine and has a child with her, it would be a small matter for the palace to be ridiculed. People with ulterior motives might report this matter to Xiao Cen!

"Your Highness, look at me. Am I the kind of person who would talk nonsense?" Lin Chunhuan pouted and acted unhappy. "I lived in a nunnery before. That place is different from what people outside think."

"Many are desperate. Women come to ask for help. There are children whose fathers are unknown. I don't know how many have been delivered in the nunnery. Some will be taken away when they grow up, and some will stay in the nunnery for the rest of their lives."

"There is a master chef in the nunnery who is proficient in this art. He told me some of it in his spare time. That beautiful girl..."

Of course, the reason was made up by Lin Chunhuan.

There was a gynecologist in the nunnery, and he did often gossip with her, but with just the naked eye, he could tell whether a person was pregnant even though she wasn't showing any signs of pregnancy.

Maybe there is someone in the world who has such ability, but she definitely doesn't.

However, it is enough to scare Xiao Cen at this time.

Xiao Cen didn't need to believe her 100%. As long as he believed her 20% to 30%, and secretly sent someone to investigate, he would naturally be able to find clues. By that time, it wouldn't matter whether she had the ability to do so or not.

Xiao Cen was silent for a while, "I understand. I will pay attention to this matter."

Lin Chunhuan nodded lightly and said nothing more. Saying too much would seem too deliberate, so just stop at the right point.

Fortunately, the carriage stopped at this time, and Lin Chunhuan was helped down by Xiao Cen. When he looked up, he saw all the masters of the Lin family standing neatly at the door, without a single one missing.

"Ah……"

Hearing her chuckle, Xiao Cen asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips and shook her head. "I was just a little surprised. After all, I have lived in the Lin family for more than half a month, and I have never seen so many people here."

"Yeah……"

Xiao Cen also laughed, and then held her hand tightly, interlocking their fingers so intimately that Lin Chu Nuan, who was standing at the front of the crowd, almost bit her lower lip.

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Prince of Pingyang and the Princess of Pingyang!"

"Please stand up, father-in-law." The smile on Xiao Cen's face was not warm, but more polite.

He said "please get up" but made no move to help. Lin's father looked at Lin Chunhuan awkwardly, but only got a polite smile in return. His old face suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Lin Chu Nuan was watching from the side. Seeing this, she went forward and helped Lin's father up. She looked at Lin Chun Huan with dissatisfaction, "Big sister, I know you are not happy that my family asked you to marry for me."

"But no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't show it in front of the prince." As she said that, Lin Chu Nuan carefully glanced at Xiao Cen's face, "Those who know you are dissatisfied with your father's decision, and those who don't know will think that you are dissatisfied with the prince."

What a good attempt to sow discord.

Tsk tsk.

Lin Chunhuan narrowed his eyes and looked Lin Chunuan up and down.

I have to admit that Lin Chu Nuan dared to be known as the most beautiful woman in Kyoto, and no one has ever questioned her for all these years. Her face is indeed delicate and lovely.

It's just that his eyes were wandering, and there was a bit of pettiness that was not presentable.

“Your Highness.” Lin Chunhuan ignored Lin Chunuan, or rather, she didn’t need to pay attention to her at all. She just pulled her hand out of Xiao Cen’s palm and said, “Since my sister has said so, please stay away from me.”

"Why?"

Xiao Cen frowned slightly. He already felt guilty towards Lin Chunhuan because of what happened to Xiao Jinan just now. Now that he noticed her moving away, he suddenly felt inexplicably panicked and immediately held her wrist tightly.

It was as if he was afraid that the person would run away.

But Lin Chunhuan just glanced at Lin Chunuan nonchalantly, not even bothering to pretend, "I haven't done anything yet, but someone is jealous of me like this."

"If I am protected by the prince again, even if I am not wrong, I will be considered wrong. Ah Huan cannot bear it."

Well, if he hadn’t been staring at Lin Chu Nuan when he said this, it would have been better if his direction wasn’t so strong. Ah Huan’s acting skills still need to be improved.

Xiao Cen coughed twice.

If it were someone else who dared to use him so blatantly, the grass on his grave would probably be two meters high by now.

But looking at his Ah Huan's arrogant little look, Xiao Cen felt like little flowers were popping out on his head. He simply loved this pretentious and vicious look!

"Big sister, I'm just telling the truth. How could you think of me like this? I..."

"enough!"

Without giving Lin Chu Nuan the chance to finish her words, Xiao Cen's face had already turned cold. He hugged Lin Chun Huan's shoulders and looked at Lin's father with an unfriendly look, "Master Lin."

"Today, I am here to accompany Ah Huan back to her parents' home. If you do not welcome me, I will take Ah Huan back to the palace. At most, I will pretend that Ah Huan has no parents' home."

"But you let such a fool come to me and disgust me. Do you think I, Xiao Cen, am too easy to talk to?"

Cold sweat broke out on Father Lin's forehead, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Chunhuan.

But Lin Chunhuan was staring at the split ends of her hair intently at that moment, so Lin's father's request for help was like a wink to a blind man, and had no effect at all.

There was no other way, Father Lin could only take a deep breath and bow to Xiao Cen repeatedly, "Your Majesty, please calm down, it is my fault for not disciplining my child properly!"

As he spoke, Father Lin flicked his sleeves and, facing Lin Chu Nuan's incredulous look, he threw her aside, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely not let this rebellious girl appear in front of you and your wife today!"

"Daddy!"

Lin Chunuan's eyes were full of tears, but Lin's father didn't have time to care about her tears at the moment. He just shouted coldly, "Get out now!"

"Nuannuan, don't be angry with your father. Mom will go out for a walk with you."

Wang was not Lin Chunhuan's biological mother. According to the rules, she was not qualified to stand in front. She hurriedly stepped forward and held Lin Chunuan, fearing that she would get angry.

Seeing this, Lin Chunhuan just smiled at the mother and daughter, with no intention of continuing to make things difficult for them.

She doesn't know how much Xiao Cen can tolerate her yet. If she does too much at once, it might backfire. As long as Lin Chu Nuan doesn't continue to cause trouble.

Today's return home can also be peaceful and smooth.

But how could Lin Chu Nuan agree?

She had been the apple of the Lin family's eye for so long, how could she tolerate being outshined by Lin Chunhuan, the unpopular elder sister? She immediately pushed Wang aside.
