"what!"

The girl fell to the ground, groaning in pain, but still holding Beichen Yuan's legs tightly, "Prince! Please! Just buy me!"

"Please, wuwuwu..."

"I beg you……"

Tears mixed with dust left two clear marks on the girl's face, making her look pitiful.

Lin Xilan looked at this scene and felt a little bit reluctant, but she also felt that the girl's behavior was too deliberate.

There are so many people coming to watch the fun.

This girl didn't want to hug anyone else but the Regent... Moreover, the other person was His Royal Highness the Regent. Anyone who dared to touch him might be beheaded, but she was not afraid at all!

This……

Very intriguing.

Lin Xilan narrowed her eyes slightly, observing the girl's every move calmly...

Beichen Yuan impatiently threw out a silver ingot, which landed heavily on the girl's dusty clothes.

"Here, right here."

His tone was cold, without a trace of mercy.

But the girl crawled up to him and hugged Beichen Yuan's legs tightly again, refusing to let go.

"Your Highness! Since you have given me the money, I will be your person in life and your ghost in death!" The girl's voice was sharp, with a determination to fight to the death.

Beichen Yuan frowned in disgust, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"presumptuous!"

He was about to kick the foolish girl away when a slender hand stopped him.

Lin Xilan looked at the girl kneeling on the ground with interest, a playful smile on her lips.

"Your Highness, why are you so angry? I'm just a poor little girl." Lin Xilan helped her up, "Little girl, since you want to repay me so much, then I will give you this opportunity. After you bury your father, come to the Regent's Mansion to repay me."

Lin Xilan thought silently:

Since I can't get rid of this girl no matter what, I might as well see what tricks she is trying to play.

Beichen Yuan frowned slightly, but still gave Lin Xilan face.

"Then do as the princess says..."

……

the other side.

Anfu.

An air of decadence permeates the surrounding carved beams and painted buildings.

All of An's blood relatives gathered in the ancestral hall, knelt on the cold ground, and apologized to their ancestors.

The eighty-year-old mistress of the house sat tremblingly in front of Zhong Dingding and threw the teacup to the ground.

"The Emperor is going to depose the Empress!"

The fragments flew everywhere, reflecting her distorted face.

"We are finished with An's!"

"What are you all doing here? Find a solution!"

"The queen cannot be deposed! Our An family can no longer withstand such a great disaster!"

"Hurry up and think of a solution for me!"

Everyone was silent as a cicada.

Dare not say a word.

They even dared not to breathe.

After all, the Queen has gone insane, and it is simply a fantasy for the mistress to push a lunatic to the throne again!

An Huaiyuan, "Mother, we are not desperate now. An's daughter has become disabled, but we still have a daughter, right?"

The head of the An family had a gloomy face, but when he heard the other party's words, his slightly frowned brows suddenly relaxed.

"You mean..." Madam An immediately understood what he meant, "Bai Ling..."

An Bailing, the queen's younger sister, is as beautiful as a flower and is the object of competition among the nobles. She is also the next queen reserved by the An family for the next emperor. Now...

An Huaiyuan continued, "Now, we'd better get Bailing into the palace as soon as possible to continue the glory of the An family! And the Queen...she has gone crazy...it is inevitable that she will be deposed."

The head of the An family nodded.

"Go call Bai Ling..."

"Yes."

……

Time flies, and a few days passed quickly.

Regent's Palace.

Lin Xilan was leisurely playing with her doll. Although Beichen Yuan gave her doll a big name, she still liked to call it "Gouzi".

As long as she called, the pink and tender little baby would smile like a flower, but she was very angry.

then.

She soon received An's new plan.

She raised her eyebrows, a hint of interest flashed in her eyes, "An wants to send An Bailing to the palace? A beauty trap, then when I have time in the future, I must see how beautiful that girl is..."

Lin Xilan paused slightly.

then.

She waved her hand with interest and asked, "Arou, has she behaved abnormally recently?"

"Princess, there has been no abnormality with Arou these days. She has been working very hard without any slacking off, and she has never left my sight." said an old maid who was accompanying her.

Lin Xilan narrowed her eyes slightly.

Laughed.

Arou was the girl who sold herself to bury her father at the gate of the Regent's Palace that day. After burying her father, she had worked as a maid in the Regent's Palace for several days.

Arou was placed in a remote courtyard in the Regent's Palace.

Lin Xilan secretly sent people to investigate Arou's background, but after investigating for a long time, they found nothing.

Moreover, during the days she was in the Regent's Palace, Arou looked like a flawless person.

These days, Arou rushes to do the hardest and most tiring work every day.

Cleaning the toilet, washing clothes, emptying the nightshade, there was nothing she refused.

Lin Xilan was even more confused. What was the purpose of Ah Rou approaching Beichen Yuan?

"What is Arou doing now?" Lin Xilan's gaze fell on the old lady beside her and continued to ask.

"Cleaning the toilet."

Lin Xilan nodded.

He picked up a colorful feather and shook the little doll in his arms.

She's not in a hurry.

If Arou is a fox, she will reveal her fox tail sooner or later.

Sudden.

A guard stumbled in.

"Princess, this is bad, the prince is angry!"

The Regent is angry?

Ok?

There are many questions in Lin Xilan's little head.

"Princess, please go and take a look. I don't know what happened. The prince is angry, and his subordinates cannot bear this thunderous wrath. So, Liuyun asked me to come and invite the princess."

Hearing this, Lin Xilan quickly handed the doll in her hand to the maid beside her and rushed to the Regent's study.

Before I even entered the study, I heard Beichen Yuan's cold voice:

"Somebody come!"

The Regent shouted loudly, and the guards outside the door immediately filed in.

"Investigate for me! Who on earth is so bold as to break into my study!"

The guards all knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

"Yes!"

Lin Xilan rubbed his temples irritably. How dare someone break into my study? Who is so desperate?

Lin Xilan hurried forward, "My Lord, what's lost?"

Beichen Yuan's face turned pale and his thin lips were tightly pursed.

"Border defense map."

Border map?

Lin Xilan took a breath of cold air.

The Prince Regent's Palace has many secret guards and is heavily guarded. Who on earth stole the Prince Regent's border defense map so stealthily?

This is a secret concerning national security!

The air seemed to freeze.

The two looked at each other, both filled with shock and confusion.

Almost at the same time, they spoke.

"Where's Arou?"
