Chapter 6 — She Wants Prosperity, I Want Freedom

I laughed coldly.

“Those properties were all bought with my mother's dowry.”

“To put it bluntly, everything the Lam family has now belongs to my mother!”

At that time, because I was so angry, I was only busy arguing with Lam Tung, completely unaware that Lieu Huong Lan had come around behind me, pulled out the hairpin and stabbed it straight towards my neck.

“You bastard, you and your mother both deserve to die!”

I instinctively turned around, only to see Lieu Huong Lan's hairpin shooting straight at me, with absolutely no time to dodge. My heart suddenly tightened. The scene of my previous life being stabbed to death immediately appeared in my mind. Could it be that if we are resurrected once, we still cannot escape the fate of being killed? Right when I was most desperate, a hand suddenly appeared, grabbed Lieu Huong Lan's wrist, and then used force to break it. Her arm immediately broke. I looked at Hoac Thua Can standing in front of me in surprise, still scared in my heart. Seeing me standing there stunned, Hoac Thua Can repeatedly asked me in a soft voice if I was injured or not. It wasn't until I shook my head that he breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Lieu Huong Lan.

"You blatantly act in the middle of the street, I could have arrested you."

“But considering that your daughter is seriously ill, I sympathize with your impatience and your extreme actions.”

“If there is a next time, I will definitely not forgive you!”

Lam Tung was so scared that he quickly thanked her, then helped Lieu Huong Lan and immediately left that place. Huo Chenggan took my hand, took me into the palace, and invited the Royal Doctor to check my pulse and diagnose me. It wasn't until the Thai physician confirmed that there was nothing to worry about that he was truly relieved. If I remember correctly, today the Emperor issued a decree granting marriage to him and his royal wife. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, directly stated his thoughts, and softened his voice.

“Stop pretending to be stupid, you know my feelings for you.”

"After I get married to the Queen of the Royal Palace, I will definitely marry her as Trac's concubine. I will absolutely not mistreat her."

I immediately withdrew my hand and respectfully bowed to him.

"Thank you, Fourth Prince, for your favor, but I don't want to be confined in the harem, competing for the affection of other women all my life."

Huo Chenggan still wanted to advise me to stay by his side. I can only speak directly to his thoughts.

"It's my honor to be somewhat like Tieu Quy Phi, but in the end I'm still not human."

"The fourth prince probably doesn't want me, someone who somewhat resembles the Noble Concubine, to fall into the same mistakes as you did in the past, right?"

Huo Chenggan was immediately stunned. He looked at the scars on his hand, and finally just sighed softly and waved his hand for me to leave. On the way back, when passing by the gate of the Lam family's palace, I discovered that the big gate was tightly closed, and there were many people gathered outside chatting.

"I heard that the Lam family's family doesn't know how to keep to themselves. They haven't even gotten married yet, but they're already involved in ambiguous relationships with many men. Every night they don't take them home until midnight."

"That's not all. I heard that behind her back she was too unruly, and played too much, to the point of making herself bedridden and unable to get up."

"Tsk tusk tusk, before I said that Lam Hoa is a fairy who came to earth, Buddha is reincarnated. I despise! That's right. defiled even the Buddha!"

“The family style of the Lam family is just that. If Lam Hoa becomes like this, then Lieu Huong Lan will definitely not be good!"

The gossip of noble families is always the topic that people like the most. Even if we discuss it for three or four days, we still won't run out of things to talk about. I just happened to listen and then left. Anyway, the Lam family no longer has any relationship with us. One month later, Huo Chengcan's wedding was held. At the same time, the Emperor decreed him crown prince, inheriting the throne. After receiving the news, Vuong Phi Anh immediately came to me and said one sentence as soon as she opened her mouth.

"The time has come, the net we have spread should be retracted!"

I nodded and handed over all the intelligence I had previously collected along with the letters I imitated the autographs of the great mandarins to Vuong Phi Anh. And he will cleverly take advantage of these things to cause a landslide in the court.
