The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

Li Jimian's expression eased a little after hearing this, but his vigilance towards Xuan Youyan did not decrease.

At this time, Li Yuan interrupted softly, "Father, since Lord Xuan means so well, why don't we let the doctor in his house check me out. That will also put his mind at ease."

Li Jimian nodded helplessly after hearing this. He knew that his daughter was always so considerate and didn't want to embarrass anyone.

They were then led to a spacious and bright consulting room, where an elderly but vigorous doctor was already waiting. He carefully examined Li Yuan and concluded that she was fine.

Hyun Woo-ryeon smiled with satisfaction when he heard this. However, Lee Jimian did not let down his guard. He always felt that Hyun Woo-ryeon's concern for Lee Won was a little too much.

In the garden of the mansion, Li Yuan and Xuan Youyan walked side by side. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves and sprinkled on them, as if coating this time with a layer of golden glory.

"Li Yuan, I know you have always been wary of me." Xuan Youyan said softly, with a bit of helplessness and bitterness in his tone, "But I hope you can understand that my concern for you is genuine."

Hearing this, Li Yuan stopped and turned to look at Xuan Youyan. Her eyes revealed some complexity and contradictions: "Master Xuan, I know your feelings. But I also hope you can understand that I am not the kind of woman you imagine. I have my own pursuits and ideals, and I cannot invest my feelings in a relationship that has no results."

Xuan Youyan's face darkened when he heard this. He knew that although Li Yuan's words were harsh, they were true. He could not give her the life and love she wanted, nor could he free himself from the entanglement of this relationship.

At this time, Li Jimian came over. He looked at his daughter and Xuan Youlan walking side by side, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart. He walked forward, pulled Li Yuan to his side, and said to Xuan Youlan: "Master Xuan, I hope you can understand. Yuan'er is my daughter, and I don't want her to be hurt. I hope you can respect her choice and stop pestering her."

Xuan Youlan's expression became even more gloomy when he heard this. He knew that although Li Jimian's words were harsh, they were true. He could not give Li Yuan the life and love she wanted, nor could he free himself from the entanglement of this relationship. He could only turn around and leave silently, leaving behind a lonely and desolate back.

Watching Hyun Woo-ryeon's departing back, Li Yuan felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart. She knew that she couldn't give him the response and feelings he wanted. But she also hoped that he could find his own happiness and destiny.

On the way out of Hyun Woo-ryeon's residence, Li Yuan remained silent. She knew that her father had always been dissatisfied with Hyun Woo-ryeon's attitude. And she could not explain her inner contradictions and struggles.

At this time, Li Jimian said softly: "Yuan'er, I know you have always been wary of Xuan Youyan. But I also hope that you can understand that feelings cannot be forced. If you really don't like him, tell him. Don't let him keep pestering you."

Li Yuan nodded after hearing this. She knew that her father's words were simple but true. She decided to talk to Hyun Woo-ryeon and tell him her thoughts and decision.

So, on the next day, Li Yuan came to Hyun Woo-ryeon's mansion. She found him and told him her thoughts and decision: "Master Hyun, I know you have always had special feelings for me. But I also hope you can understand that I can't give you the response and feelings you want. I hope you can find your own happiness and destination."

Hyun Woo-ryeon's face darkened when he heard this. He knew that although Li Yuan's words were harsh, they were true. He could not force her feelings and response. He could only accept this fact silently and wish her to find her own happiness.

At the same time, Hyun Woo-ryeon and Lee Ji-myeon also made some progress in their investigation of the case. They found some important clues that pointed to a minister in the court. They decided to continue to investigate in depth to uncover the truth of the case.

In the imperial city, the situation suddenly changed. The assassination of the emperor was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples. People in the court and the country were in panic, and various forces were secretly spying, trying to find opportunities that were beneficial to them from this chaotic situation.

Xuan Youyan and Li Jimian, two important officials in the court, were pushed to the forefront. While they were busy investigating the assassination of the emperor, they were also secretly fighting for power. Every action of theirs could cause turmoil in the court and even change the fate of the entire country.

Hyun Woo-ryeon, a young and promising minister, originally thought that he could rise steadily in the court with his talent and loyalty. However, the assassination of the emperor put him in a difficult situation. He encountered many difficulties in the process of investigating the case. Every clue seemed to be deliberately erased, making it impossible for him to find the truth.
