I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 14: Please Come In

Kyoto has been rainy recently.

In this season of withering, the world seems desolate.

Raindrops fall on the black tiles of the Yan Mansion, like dancing white jade beads. Soon, the walls are stained and painted into an ink scroll.

In the ink painting, there is a small pavilion called "Night Rest."

Next to the pavilion, there were originally many mint plants, lush and refreshing. However, the attendants are now carrying dozens of pots of mint, preparing to move them elsewhere.

Because an unexpected guest has arrived at the Night Rest Pavilion, all the flowers and plants in the palace have to suffer.

As for the unexpected guest herself, she is now lazily leaning on a bamboo wheelchair, letting a pretty little maid tie up her hair.

Wearing the snow fur coat that Princess Zhao Hua sent her yesterday, holding a warm sleeve heater in her hand, Xiao Jin suddenly felt that her life had become complete.

The attendants lifted the flower pots, but they didn't know where Xiao Jin wanted to move these mint plants. They could only ask in fear, "Your Highness, where would you like to move these flowers and plants?"

Xiao Jin took the tea that the butler handed over, but did not drink it immediately. Instead, she lifted her eyelids and glanced at those mint plants.

"Since these flowers were sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they cannot be thrown away casually. I have heard that mint has the effect of improving eyesight and cooling blood, and it can be used as a medicine. Let's take them to Cangjin Lane, where Doctor Su should be able to use them."

After hearing Xiao Jin's words, the attendants were dumbfounded.

Even if She Highness valued Doctor Su, or had other plans, she shouldn't give wild mint plants as a gift.

Who gives green mint as a gift?

In fact, Xiao Jin had no ulterior motive for Doctor Su, she just couldn't think of anyone else to give the plants to, so she gave them to her.

Besides, mint is a good thing, it can improve eyesight, cool blood, and can also be used as a medicinal material. Both its properties and color are very suitable for Doctor Su.

Repaying kindness with kindness, a true gentleman.

However, the reason why Xiao Jin wanted to move these mint plants was because she accidentally heard from a servant's mouth that all these potted plants were originally sent by the Crown Prince to the original owner and had been placed in the pavilion for many years.

Although mint itself is an innocent plant, once she knew that these plants were moved from the Eastern Palace, according to the common plot in online novels, Xiao Jin always felt that there was likely to be a chronic poison in the potted plants, the kind that slowly wears down a person.

Therefore, just a few days after arriving, Xiao Jin began to transform the original owner's courtyard and moved away everything that the male lead had given.

Watching the servant struggling to lift the glass flower vessel and then looking at the suddenly empty courtyard, Xiao Jin couldn't help but sigh, the male lead gave too much.

She planned to stack some of the things in the warehouse first, and if conditions permit, she would check if there was any colorless and tasteless poison applied to them.

After combing her black hair, the maid picked up a black hairpin and helped Xiao Jin put her hair up.

Xiao Jin picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then looked at the steward standing beside her.
