Chapter 61: Accidentally Provoking the Dark Guard, Begging for Mercy Every Night (11)

Upon hearing this, Concubine De raised her head and laughed wildly:
"Hahaha, that's easy for you to say! Have you ever considered those of us who have followed the emperor for more than ten years?
I am already twenty-eight years old this year, not just eighteen like you!
You tell me, how can a woman of our age who has lost her virginity find a good man? Lin Shu, tell me!!!"

Glancing at Concubine De like a mad dog, Lin Shu just found it ridiculous.

In modern society, many women get married in their thirties or forties. How many women of this age still retain their chastity?
If she is capable, can't she still marry an excellent husband?

Whether a woman is happy or not is never linked to her chastity, but depends on her ability!

"Sister, you don't have to be so self-deprecating. If you bloom, butterflies will come to you.

As long as you are good enough, your lover will naturally come to you!

This time, Concubine De committed an insubordination. I will not pursue the matter because it is your first offense.

If there is a next time, don't blame me for not caring about our sisterly love!"

Lin Shu put on a stern look.

However, Concubine De's mentality had collapsed and she had lost all hope. She still cursed the witch for bringing disaster to the country.

If he hadn't been restrained by the guards, he would probably have rushed up and vented his anger.

Lin Shu was very angry.

If she didn't want to have other women in the harem, she really wanted to banish Concubine De to the cold palace immediately and fulfill her wish of not wanting to leave the palace!

……

This time, Lin Shu actually came mainly to see Lin Ran leave.

She was too lazy to pay attention to the crazy Concubine De, and asked Lin Ran to walk around the palace with her for the last time.

"Sister, I feel so wronged. I thought they would be very happy if I let them leave the palace to find their own happiness.

Did I really do something wrong? Do they prefer to die alone in the palace? "

After becoming pregnant and giving birth, Lin Shu's figure became even more charming and her face became rich and noble.

Now that the other party is the mother of the country and she is a commoner, there is a huge difference in their status, so Lin Ran spoke more politely.

"I am not in a position to speak for others. I can only say that I am very happy to be able to leave the palace and find happiness elsewhere. Thank you very much, Queen."

It seemed that Lin Shu was pleased by Lin Ran's humble attitude. She felt like she was being praised. She felt better and began to think about Concubine De's words.

It's not that she doesn't sympathize with the old ladies who have followed the emperor for more than ten years, but they are really not that old, and the emperor gave them more generous compensation, distributing a lot of land, farms and silver according to their positions.

As long as they don't squander money recklessly and don't let others cheat them out of their assets, they can live a rich life even if they never get married.

I don’t understand what they are afraid of?
Lin Shu couldn't help but sigh:
“Generally speaking, women in the palace are still used to relying on men and lack the ability to survive independently.

Just like Sister Defei, she was actually afraid that she would not be able to live a good life after leaving the palace when she got older.

Sister, you must maintain your optimistic attitude. Women will not have trouble finding a husband even at 38, let alone 28."

There was a sense of arrogance and superiority in Lin Shu's words that a superior looked down on an inferior.

"…Your Majesty is right." Lin Ran lowered her eyes.

In the original plot, after the male protagonist disbanded the harem, he only briefly mentioned the dismissed concubines and did not explain what happened to them afterwards.

In order to expand his family, the male protagonist has taken in not only daughters of officials into the palace over the past ten years, but also many women from the common people who have been carefully selected.

After being dismissed from the palace, the daughters of official families could probably go home and continue to be rich ladies, with no worries about food and clothing; but the common women who had no background to rely on, without protection, didn't know whether they could keep their wealth and beauty and live an ideal life.

However, Lin Ran had no intention of interfering in other people's lives.

She also needs to think carefully about how to go in the future. I just hope everyone can be well!
At this time, the emperor also came.

Of course, he came to see his queen.

When he heard that Concubine De had slapped the Queen, he was afraid that it would affect the Queen's fetus, so he hurried over to check.

As for Concubine De, who crawled over crying and begged him for mercy, the emperor kicked her one meter away.

Concubine De vomited blood and fainted on the spot.

Ugh……

At this time, Lin Ran was extremely glad that she was about to leave the palace.

The other old friends also wanted to ask the emperor to revoke his decision, but they could not bear to see that the Defei, who was of such a high status, was treated like this by the emperor. Without any consideration for their old friendship, they dared not appear in front of the emperor anymore. They took the compensation and left the palace one after another.

……

Lin Ran returned to the Lin family with her generous dowry when she entered the palace and the silver compensation from the palace.

The Lin family already had a daughter who became a noble queen, and the daughter who was sent home was no longer valuable. When Lin Ran returned home, she was almost left out in the cold and lived in the most deserted courtyard.

Lin Ran likes this kind of quietness, at least no one comes to cause her trouble.

One night half a year later.

Xie Fengye finally showed up.

The way he appeared was consistent with his identity as a secret guard. He did not come to the Lin Mansion to ask for a meeting openly, but appeared at the door of her room without anyone noticing.

No one knew how he was able to find her location so accurately in the huge Lin Mansion, but seeing that his lips were pale and his palm was covering his abdomen with blood obviously flowing out and staining his fingers red, Lin Ran didn't bother to ask him this question and pulled him into the room to check his injuries first.

Letting him sit down at the table, Lin Ran moved her own medicine box and placed it on the table.

"Xie Fengye, how did you get hurt?"

Lin Ran said this, signaling him with her eyes to undress him and take a look, because any injuries must be treated.

Xie Fengye did not move, as if he was surprised by Lin Ran's arrogance. His ears turned slightly red, and he looked just as respectful and upright as when he was in the palace:
"It's... it's an old injury. I just accidentally injured it on the road. It's actually nothing serious. Master, don't worry."

Look how reasonable he is. He automatically hired himself for the job before I even said a few words.

Lin Ran really admired people with such strong psychological qualities, so she had to help him heal his injuries no matter what.

"Since it's an old injury, you need to pay more attention to it. I'll help you clean the wound tonight. Tomorrow I'll take you to see the best doctor in the capital and make sure your wound heals as soon as possible."

Lin Ran's concern was sincere, and there was a hint of strength in her tone.

Knowing that there was no need for him to refuse, and that as a subordinate he should obey his master, Xie Fengye nodded in agreement:
"Then I would like to thank you for your concern, my master."

Xie Fengye had beautiful eyes, and the flickering candlelight in his eyes was as charming and dazzling as broken stars.

Lin Ran was dazzled.

I thought to myself that I had earned a fortune by getting a secret guard who was not only skilled in martial arts but also good-looking!
"Then take off your clothes and let me see your current injuries.

Although I'm not a professional doctor, at least I can treat the wound, you can trust me."

In order to demonstrate her credibility, Lin Ran deliberately put on a serious expression, staring at him intently with her clear and transparent eyes.

Xie Fengye slowly turned his back when he was being stared at.

He lowered his head and began to untie his belt.
