Chapter 8 — In rebirth, I stole the merit to save the princess, I turned around to save the prince

I'm really curious. If Ly Mong Uyen continues to be tormented like this, how much longer can Tham Van Nhu last? After Tham Van Nhu was called away by the Princess's people, Ly Lan Hac walked out from the side street. He stood next to me, looked at Tham Van Nhu's back as he gradually walked away and said:

"It seems like this sister of yours really can't stand her being left in peace for even a little bit."

That's natural. Since childhood, Tham Van Nhu has hated me. It's clear that he's not as good as me in any way, yet he still wants to oppress me in every aspect. I was bullied by her many times. Even my mother was often harassed by the servants in the palace. So in my previous life, after saving Ly Mong Uyen, I honestly thought I could finally live good days. There is no need for my mother to continue to live by looking at the faces of Tham Van Nhu and their mother and child. Unexpectedly... It was all a lie. I am nothing more than a prey who walked into a trap. From a prison... Jump into another abyss.

"The other day there was a banquet in the palace."

"At that time, please follow me to the palace one more time."

Ly Lan Hac had grown up and was given a private residence outside the palace. The palace banquet he mentioned was because two months ago, when his wound had not yet completely healed, there was a drought in the North. The Emperor specially sent him and the Crown Prince to the North to provide relief. I slightly lowered my eyes.

"I heard that during this relief effort in the North, the Crown Prince achieved great success."

"Not only did we make arrangements for the refugees, but we also eased the natural disaster situation in the North and took many effective measures."

"The Emperor is extremely pleased."

"Yesterday at court, people were full of praise for the Crown Prince."

As for Ly Lan Hac, the real hero behind it all, he received nothing. It wasn't until later that the Emperor suddenly remembered and ordered someone to bring several chests of gold, silver and jewels to Ly Lan Hac palace to reward them as a reward. And the banquet in the palace two days later... was the inauguration party for the Crown Prince.

"What do you want to say?"

Ly Lan Hac looked straight ahead, his face not showing any dissatisfaction.

"Your Highness is willing?"

"And what do you think?"

Ly Lan Hac glanced at me.

"That day she said she would help me."

"I left too quickly that day, I still didn't have time to ask."

"Can you really help me get those things?"

"Of course."

I didn't shy away, calmly looked straight into his eyes.

"What you wish for... is also what I wish for."

Ly Lan Hac looked at me. His eyes wavered slightly. He quietly averted his gaze, not saying another word. Two days later. It's still Luu Kim Palace. At the inauguration banquet, the Emperor and Queen sat in the highest position. The Crown Prince and Ly Mong Uyen sat on both sides. And Tham Van Nhu sat next to Ly Mong Uyen. During the banquet, the Emperor once again stood before the officials and everyone praised the Crown Prince's merits in the Northern relief mission. Under everyone's praise, the Crown Prince looked even more pleased. Ly Lan Hac still sat quietly in his seat, silently drinking wine. It seems that all the glory and merit have nothing to do with him. I thought for a moment, then raised the wine cup towards Ly Lan Hac. Using a voice that only the two of us could hear, I softly said:

"Congratulations, Your Highness return safely."

"Natural disasters in the North have been resolved."

"Your Highness's contributions are not small."

Ly Lan Hac paused. He looked at the cup of wine in my hand. Thinking for a moment, he also raised his cup and gently touched mine. I smiled and drank the entire cup of wine. Out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally saw Tham Van Nhu quietly stand up and secretly leave the seat next to Ly Mong Uyen. Intuition tells me... Tham Van Nhu has a problem. I also made an excuse to go outside to get some fresh air and then left the party. Leaving Luu Kim Palace, I started looking for Tham Van Nhu's shadow. When I went to a pavilion next to the rockery, I vaguely heard her voice.

"Lin Lang, you don't know how Her Highness the Princess has treated me recently."

"He looked at his hand and fell asleep."

"They're all full of blisters."

"Let me see."

"It really makes me feel sad for our Van Nhu."

"It was I who made her suffer."

I immediately sped up my steps and hid behind a rockery. Through the crack in the rock, I saw under a cinnamon tree not far away, Tham Van Nhu and a man kissing. I frowned slightly. Has Tham Van Nhu found a new support? That man's voice sounded extremely familiar.
