I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.

Chapter 138 Quarrel

After saying this, Lin Yan's mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. But her eyes revealed a kind of determination and unyielding. Although she seemed to accept the current situation on the surface, she was still dissatisfied with her situation deep down.

Zhao Yuan heard the deep meaning in Lin Yan's words, and he knew that she was not really willing to live here. So, he sighed softly, walked closer to Lin Yan, gently took her hand, and promised: "Don't worry, she won't live here for long."

Lin Yan looked into Zhao Yuan's eyes and said, "You can't live here for long? Xianyue Courtyard is a Feng Shui treasure land. Don't you have any idea of ​​the purpose of living there?"

"Xianyue Courtyard is just a courtyard. Wherever you live is the real Feng Shui treasure land. Wu Yue was selected into the palace since she was young to be the princess's companion, so she grew up with us princes. There are many people and things involved, which cannot be explained in a few words. She is a married princess who came back to visit her family. She has no other relatives in the capital except me, so she is also a responsibility to me." Zhao Yuan comforted.

"As long as you think it's appropriate." What else could Lin Yan say? She continued to bite the apple. It tasted really good. She wanted to distract herself and resolve the anger in her heart.

"My master has already ordered that we have your favorite hot pot tonight." Zhao Yuan walked over and said softly.

Lin Yan raised her eyes and asked doubtfully, "My Lord, do you still want to have dinner here with me?"

Zhao Yuan frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes: "If not at your place, where else can we eat?" He felt a little annoyed. He had already explained it so clearly to her, why couldn't A Yan be more generous? What's the point of keeping harping on this issue?

After hearing this, Lin Yan's eyes slightly reddened: "Your childhood sweetheart, your pregnant princess, which one is not your responsibility? Who am I? If you are happy, you can say a few nice words, but if you are not happy, you will strangle me."

Zhao Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Yan to say such a thing. He couldn't help but feel angry. "How can you say that? Everyone in the capital knows how much I love you, but you are the only one who is not satisfied."

Hearing this, Lin Yan, who had already felt a little aggrieved, could no longer bear it and instantly exploded, sneering: "What do you mean by ungrateful? How could I be ungrateful? I moved when I was told to move, I kneeled when I was told to kneel, I served when I was told to serve, and I rolled away when I was told to roll away."

Zhao Yuan's eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Yan angrily: "Isn't this your duty? I have tried my best to fight for you. You have everything you need now. Isn't it just a matter of moving to a new courtyard? It's such an ordinary thing. What else are you not satisfied with? And yet you are making trouble like this!"

Lin Yan was not to be outdone: "I am being unreasonable? Your Majesty, you are really a forgetful person! Do I care about this identity and status?"

Zhao Yuan was so angry that he was shaking all over: "You...how dare you speak to me like that!"

Lin Yan bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes. She tried hard not to cry, but her voice trembled a little: "Your Highness, I am only telling the truth. I told you the day I came back that my heart can only accommodate one person, and that person must be devoted to me and have only me in his heart. Didn't you know all this a long time ago? Now you actually despise me for being unreasonable. If you can't be devoted to me, please let me go." She finally stopped calling herself the humble title of concubine. This was the first time she was so determined to confront Zhao Yuan.

Lin Yan straightened her back, looked at Zhao Yuan firmly, and lowered her voice: "I am just forbearing, but it doesn't mean I have no temper or bottom line. I have to praise others for being deceived and bullied."

Zhao Yuan was furious. He widened his eyes and said harshly: "Hmph! That's unreasonable! You don't have any awareness of being a woman in the harem. You should learn to get along well with them. You are not allowed to go anywhere in the yard. Reflect on yourself." After that, he turned around and left in anger, leaving Lin Yan standing there alone.

Lin Yan couldn't hold back her tears and growled, "I did nothing wrong, why should I reflect on myself?"

Zhao Yuan's footsteps only paused for a moment, still without turning around, he left Xinyue Courtyard with firm steps.

Lin Yan was so angry that she threw away the apple in her hand. "What a lousy place, it's just a nice-sounding and beautiful shabby cage, who cares about it?"

When Green Tea and Happy saw Master Lin and the Prince having a conflict for the first time, they were so scared that they trembled and knelt aside.

Seeing Zhao Yuan leaving, Lu Cha hurried forward to dissuade him: "My master! Calm down, he is the prince, how dare you talk to him like that?"

Lin Yan looked disapproving, "I told him this, what do you think?"

"My dear master, you can't do this!" Green Tea said anxiously, "You are playing with your life!"

"Why do you think so?" Lin Yan looked at her, eyes full of confusion.

Green Tea sighed, "Men are the sky, and we are just men's appendages."

Lin Yan sneered, "Sky? Everyone has a sky above their heads. The economic base determines the superstructure. If you have the ability to survive, you are your own sky. Green tea, remember, your current food, clothing, housing, and transportation are not given to you by others, but earned by your own labor. Don't think about being a man's dependent, poor creature, no one will sympathize with you."

Green Tea widened her eyes, "But..."

"There is no but. Women can also have their own careers and pursuits, and can get everything they want through their own efforts." Lin Yan said firmly, "Don't pin your hopes on others anymore, learn to rely on yourself."

Green Tea listened to Lin Yan's words, and she couldn't help but feel admiration in her heart. She knew that although this master sometimes had a bad temper, every word she said was profound. Perhaps, she should try to change her mindset, no longer rely on men, but rely on her own strength to fight for happiness.

Kai Xin was only vaguely aware of what was being said and was full of admiration for Lin Yan.

Zhao Yuan sat at the desk, frowning as he read the book in his hand. But his mind was not on the book at all. The scene of the quarrel with Lin Yan just now kept echoing in his mind. He really couldn't understand why Lin Yan was so stubborn and insisted on her own opinion. He threw the book away in annoyance, stood up and paced in the study room.

"Defu!" Zhao Yuan suddenly stopped and shouted.

When Defu heard the call, he immediately came over and stood aside respectfully: "What do you want, my lord?"
