Looking at Xia Zheng's wary eyes, He Lienuo suddenly felt a sense of pride in his scheme's success. But before the smile on the corner of his mouth could expand, Lin Yuan had already unhesitatingly exposed him.
"Crown Prince Helian, it seems the agreement you're referring to is one-sided, isn't it? I didn't agree to it, you know!"
He Lienuo was embarrassed, and seeing Xia Zheng's smug expression only made him grind his teeth in irritation.
Having received the Old Emperor's ten taels of gold and He Lienuo's pearl bracelet, Lin Yuan was also very pleased.
She turned back and directly took a gold ingot from the tray and tossed it to the Little Eunuch who had helped her earlier.
The Little Eunuch cradled the heavy gold ingot in his hands, his eyes almost bulging out as he stammered, "Com-Commandery Princess, wh-what is this..."
"This is a reward for you, take it! Thank you for helping me just now!"
Lin Yuan casually waved her hand, smiling with an air of nonchalance.
