Bei Chenze and Lin Xilan walked out of the gate of the Xiao Mansion side by side.

They were both handsome men and beautiful women, talented men and women, and their figures were particularly eye-catching on the bustling streets of the capital.

There was a constant stream of people on the street, and the cries of vendors, the sound of horse-drawn carriages, and the laughter of children were intertwined together, making it very lively.

Suddenly, a noise came from the teahouse next door.

"Come on, do you want to bet?"

"Bet, why not!"

"Okay, I'll bet three thousand taels. Within a month, the Prince Regent will divorce the current Princess Regent!"

"I bet ten thousand taels..."

"Damn, brother, why are you betting so much? Are you so confident?"

"Of course, you don't know how our regent feels about Yu Xueyao, but I know it all too well. Back then, our prince fell in love with Yu Xueyao at first sight, and he would not yield unless she did. He even went so far as to offend the emperor and protect the tiny country of Xiao. If it weren't for that time, Your Majesty... I won't talk about this for now! Anyway, at that time, I was a close guard of the regent, and I saw how inseparable they were. Men are all affectionate, especially our Northern Dynasty's regent, who is really a romantic! So, I bet he will divorce this stupid princess for Yu Xueyao!"

"Idiot Princess? I have long since cleared myself of this stigma! However, I remember that you did serve under the Regent..."

"So... I'll bet 10,000 taels too!"

"I'll bet 10,000 taels too!"

"Ten thousand taels!"

"..."

The voice coming from inside made the faces of the two people outside change.

Lin Xilan stopped.

Listen quietly.

Ten thousand taels, ten thousand taels, ten thousand taels, another ten thousand taels, and another ten thousand taels...

What the hell.

She is going to get rich!

Bei Chenze's face changed slightly, and he whispered, "Lin Xilan, don't be angry. These people in the capital are like this. They like to gossip when they know something. Don't take it to heart. What they say... may not be true."

however.

Lin Xilan had already walked in quickly.

Bei Chenze was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to grab her, but he only touched a sleeve, "Lin Xilan, what are you going to do!"

doing what?

Of course, it’s for fun!

Moreover, she not only wants to listen to the fun, but also wants to make a lot of money!

But as soon as she entered the door, she heard the discussion inside.

Ha ha ha.

Another bet became lively at the scene.

"Come on, come on, place your bets! Buy it and leave it!"

"I bet the Regent will divorce within six months!"

"Half a year! That's too long! Can't you see how much the Prince Regent loved the Princess? I bet the Princess Regent will be divorced in less than a month!"

"...I think you are all too conservative. Let me do it! I'll bet within five days! I'll bet a hundred thousand taels of silver!"

"You haven't pressed enough..." Suddenly, a clear voice sounded, with a hint of provocation and disdain, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone saw a pair of slender hands gently pressing the silver bills in their hands on the table.

Her hands are as delicate as jade and very beautiful.

Just when someone was about to say something heroic, the next moment, a half-smile appeared on the woman's face, with a hint of amusement in her eyes, as if she was challenging everyone present.

"I bet for five days! Is there anyone who wants to follow me?" The woman's voice was clear and confident.

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect someone to be so bold. They all looked at the woman who made the voice.

The woman's face was cold and her bright eyes flashed with a meaningful light. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing an uninhibited smile.

this person……

Isn’t this person…the Princess Regent?

"…Princess!"

The appearance of Princess Regent Lin Xilan is actually no secret in the capital.

Long before she won the top five prizes and completely bewitched Beichen Yuan, her portrait had often circulated in the capital.

So, someone at the scene recognized her quickly.

Of course, most people in the capital have never seen her portrait, but——

present.

You can bet heavily on this.

How many of them are not powerful and wealthy?

Oh my God!

The Princess Regent is here.

Then, she must have heard what she had just bet on.

Everyone was shocked.

One by one, they couldn't help but feel their legs go weak and almost fell to the ground.

"Princess, listen to me, this is all a misunderstanding!"

"We naturally like the princess and the regent to live in harmony and love each other. As for the princess of a fallen country who appeared in front of you for some unknown reason, she is nothing. The regent will definitely not continue his relationship with her and will definitely drive her out of the regent's palace."

"It's, it's..."

"We are just playing around. We definitely don't mean to curse you and the Regent to divorce. You should take back the banknote!"

"..."

Listening to these people making excuses, Bei Chenze, who has always been a gentleman, finally couldn't stand it anymore!

He had a cold expression, wearing a dark blue gown, and his eyes were as cold as ice, with a bit of murderous intent, "Just for fun? In front of everyone, in a teahouse or restaurant, you are openly making fun of the current regent and his wife!"

"Is this just your idea of ​​playing around? Do you know that slandering the royal family will land you in jail?"

"I think, if I don't let you suffer a little, you won't know that this pot is made of iron!"

Seeing Beichenze getting angry, those people's faces turned pale.

They kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Two, Your Highness..."

“Second, Second Prince… Spare me! Spare me!”

"Spare my life..."

Seeing Beichenze was really angry.

Everyone was inevitably worried.

Those who participated in the betting did not complain, but those who were just watching the fun did.

They feel that they are simply too resentful!

This is so unlucky!

I just came out to join in the fun, but I actually ran into the real person and got caught! Not only did I offend the Regent Princess, I also angered the current Second Prince!

What should I do, what should I do, what should I do?

"Your Highness..."

"Spare my life..."

There were constant pleas for mercy.

Everyone felt cold sweat on their backs.

Bei Chenze gritted his teeth and decisively rejected those pleas for mercy, "Come on, drag them all away and put them in jail!"

"Don't!" To his surprise, the first person to stop him was Lin Xilan.

Beichenze was stunned.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xilan was not angry, but stretched out her hand.

She embraced his figure, glanced at the gradually quiet teahouse, and smiled casually, "I've already placed my bet, there's nothing interesting here, let's just go!"

"Everyone, have fun, have fun..."

Lin Xilan turned her head with a faint smile on her lips, "Boss, the bet just now cannot be cancelled. I am waiting for the day when the prize is drawn and I win the money."

The boss's mouth twitched, "Yes..."

Beichenze, "..."

The rumors about her and the Regent Beichen Yuan in the capital were like dust in the wind, everywhere and pervasive. Lin Xilan had long been accustomed to it.

Until they leave.

Finally, the people in the teahouse calmed down!

"Lin Xilan, why did you... do that just now?"
