The Queen Mother sat upright on the Phoenix Chair. Her posture was graceful and elegant, but the expression on her face was cold.

After hearing what the nanny said, she just smiled coldly, without a trace of warmth in her smile.

"Mammy, others may be deceived by his appearance, but you and I have been in this deep palace for many years. Can't we see through the regent's mind?" There was a hint of bitterness in the Queen's voice, and a trace of pain flashed in her eyes.

She had thought that the regent was a cold-blooded man who never understood what emotion was. However, when she saw his tenderness and care for that woman, her heart felt like it was pierced by a needle and she felt a dull pain. She couldn't understand why he could pour all his emotions and love on another woman, but was always cold and indifferent to her, the queen.

why?

Is she bad?

The Queen's heart was filled with envy and jealousy. Her hands unconsciously clenched the armrests of the Phoenix Chair, her nails digging deeply into the wood carvings, as if trying to squeeze out all the resentment and pain in her heart.

If it was back then... if he could have treated her a little bit differently back then, how could she have entered the palace?

The Queen took a deep breath and then said, "There will be no turning point. No matter what I do, I will be hated. Isn't that right?"

The difference is... who is holding a grudge against you.

After hearing this, the nanny sighed helplessly and did not comment. She felt deeply distressed for her own queen.

……

Three days later.

The door of Duke Dingguo's Mansion was wide open, and luxurious carriages appeared one after another. The ladies were all dressed up in new and beautiful clothes.

But the ladies looked at each other and were all very wary of each other.

After all, the purpose of their coming here today is not just as simple as a flower-viewing banquet.

Therefore, everyone here will potentially become a competitor and naturally dislike each other.

The carriage of the Prince Regent's Palace came galloping at a momentum that almost cut through the air. The wheels rolled and the sound of horse hooves was quick and powerful, as if even the air was shocked by the sudden speed.

The car stopped.

The car curtain was lowered, but Lin Xilan's eyes were full of excitement, "Tsk tsk... there are so many people here..."

Although she doesn't like to participate in pulling hair flowers, she likes to watch!

The man beside her couldn't help but shook his head and laughed when he heard that. Then he tucked the hair on her temples behind her ears and warned her, "These women are crazy. You have to be careful."

After saying that, he looked at Xia Zhu with a cold, warning look.

"Serve the princess well, understand?"

Xia Zhu was so frightened that his whole body was shaking and he nodded vigorously.

"Yes! Please rest assured, Prince Regent. I will definitely protect the princess!"

Protect with your life.

When Lin Xilan saw Xia Zhu being so frightened, she rolled her eyes at Beichen Yuan.

"Look how scared you made Xia Zhu."

"No...it's okay! Princess, your servant is fine!"

Beichen Yuan was still worried. He frowned and thought for a while before saying, "How about I accompany you?"

Lin Xilan looked at him as if he were a monster.

"Are you crazy or am I? You want to stay among the women at the flower viewing banquet?"

"Then you will stay in the front yard with me."

Anyway, Beichen Yuan didn't want Lin Xilan to leave his sight.

Lin Xilan naturally knew that Beichen Yuan was worried about her, but she still had to watch the show and didn't want to listen to the meaningless flattery of that group of people in the front yard.

She pouted and just looked at Beichen Yuan.

In the end, Beichen Yuan sighed helplessly and could only agree to let her go to the back house.

"Take good care of the princess, you hear me?"

Before getting off the car, Beichen Yuan was still warning Xia Zhu.

After getting Xia Zhu's promise that almost made him nod his head off, he lifted the curtain and got out of the car first.

The moment the Regent appeared, the entire front of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion was silent at first, and then all the puppets widened their eyes in shock. Then, the noble ladies from various families began to tidy up their clothes, and each of them wanted to step forward hesitantly but did not dare.

Mu Qingran also widened his eyes at that moment, and then he quickly walked forward with surprise in his eyes!

"regent--"

Before she could finish her sweet words, she saw the curtain being lifted again. The Regent stretched out his hand tenderly and helped a woman carefully down from the carriage.

And everyone can see clearly who that person is!

Lin Xilan!

Mu Qingran's eyes were filled with gloom, and the look he gave Lin Xilan was filled with endless hostility!

"Hey, isn't this the Regent's concubine? It's been a long time since we last met."

When Mu Qingran saw Lin Xilan, she gnashed her teeth in hatred, but she still had to pretend to be a gentle lady. However, the words she said were very purposeful and mocking.

The noble ladies around couldn't help but curl their lips and chuckled behind their handkerchiefs.

Everyone knows what the eldest daughter of the Yong'an Marquisate meant by these words.

Beichen Yuan’s face darkened.

But Lin Xilan patted his hand gently.

After calming down the angry donkey, he looked at Mu Qingran.

This is the dream girl who has always been dreaming of her husband.

She didn't have the time to deal with her before, but it's different now.

Lin Xilan looked Mu Qingran up and down.

"This... is the legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion? How old is she? Is she married?"

After she said this, Mu Qingran was stunned, as if he didn't understand what she meant.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Xilan still smiled.

"You are concerned about Miss Mu. I heard that she is already in her twenties but has never married... There are other children in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. The other sisters dare not break the rule that the eldest daughter is not married. Miss Mu should be more considerate of others."

Phew...

As Lin Xilan finished speaking, someone in the dark couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This person's words are so poisonous!

Knowing that Mu Qingran has delayed getting married until this age just to wait for the Regent, this is really too much!

Mu Qingran also felt embarrassed, and immediately gritted his teeth and cursed: "What a sharp tongue! You deserve to die!"

After saying that, he rushed forward to hit someone!

But the next moment, someone grabbed his raised wrist!

Mu Qingran was startled and looked over quickly, only to find that it was the Regent!

Good news! She had sex with the Regent!

Bad news! The regent looked at her with cold eyes!

Mu Qingran suddenly changed from being arrogant to feeling aggrieved.

"Prince Regent, you see this concubine is not worthy of being in a noble place. She actually insulted me in public. Prince Regent, please stand up for me!"

The last word "ya" is the finishing touch.

Lin Xilan raised her eyebrows but said nothing.

On the contrary, Beichen Yuan pushed the man away as if he had touched something dirty.

That’s not all, he even extended his hand.

Lin Xilan suddenly took out a handkerchief and handed it to him.

In front of Mu Qingran and all the noble ladies, Beichen Yuan took a handkerchief and wiped the hand that had just been holding Mu Qingran.

After wiping it clean, he threw the handkerchief directly on the ground.

Mu Qingran widened her eyes in shock, and they were immediately filled with tears. The look she gave Beichen Yuan was full of humiliation and grievance!

"Prince Regent, how could you do this!"

Tears actually fell out of anger!

Beichen Yuan didn't even look at her.

In front of everyone, he gently took Lin Xilan's hand, and there was solemnity and murderous intent in his voice!

"This is my only princess. If I hear the so-called concubine's words again, I will definitely not forgive her! Do you understand?"
