LOVE OR DESTINY

"If I drink this and get hot, do you want to help put out the fire?"

Pfft! Xiao Tan frantically grabbed the medicine and chugged it himself to the ground. Lian Cheng asked if it tasted bitter. But Xiao Tan did not want to talk to him.

Following the advice of the two witches, Yi Huai went to talk to his father-in-law. Master Qu realized that Lian Cheng was a very careful person, so it would be difficult to find his fault.

So if Yi Huai wanted to attack him, then Yi Huai would have to start from his weakness first. And Lian Cheng's weakness was Tan Er.

"Tan Er's? But she's your own real daughter."

"Yes, Tan Er is my daughter. My heart hurts too. But he can sacrifice for His Majesty's great ambition. Since it has become like this, if we don't utilize it properly, isn't it a waste of his efforts? Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is the position of the crown prince." (Well! What kind of father is he?)

"Then what will my father-in-law do to Tan Er?"

"I'll use it. I'll use it properly to make sure the 8th Prince won't be the crown prince."

But he noticed Yi Huai looked uneasy. Master Qu knew that Yi Huai cared deeply for Tan Er. But he reminded Yi Huai that right now the most important thing was the selection of the crown prince for the sake of the future of this kingdom, and the only thing he could do was to make Tan Er suffer a little.

"I understand. The position of the crown prince is more important. I will not falter because of personal feelings. Father-in-law, please tell me what your plan is."

Today, Xiao Tan was so happy that she was finally able to get out of the room and enjoy the sunshine. Lian Cheng came shortly afterwards and immediately commented on Xiao Tan's happiness when he had just left the room.

"of course. If you let me out of the house, I'll be happier."

Jing Xuan suddenly ran to her brother-in-law while giving her a box of ginseng, but Xiao Tan instead thought it was radish.

"Sister-in-law 8th, you really don't know any valuables. It's ginseng for thousands of years. I gave it to the 8th sister-in-law to strengthen the 8th sister-in-law."

Xiao Tan thanked him for the gift even though it seemed obvious that he was disappointed to be given medicine again. Hehe. Lian Cheng instead said that he would only allow Xiao Tan to leave the house after he drank the ginseng.

"I need to strengthen my mind again? I can't do it anymore. I can burn to death if I reinforce my needs again!" (because Chinese herbal medicine makes tbuh hot)

As Jing Xin returned to bring snacks for her, this time Tan Er reappeared. He had heard the guards outside saying that the perpetrators of the assassination attempt were rebels from the previous dynasty and not Yi Huai.

Jing Xin confirmed it. Now Tan Er can calm down. Tan Er was relieved to hear that, he knew it was definitely not Yi Huai. "Hearing he wasn't affected by this matter, I felt calm."

But Jing Xin told her that the two annoying concubines were outside right now. They want to meet Tan Er. Tan Er was lazy to meet them, just say that he was not feeling well.
