Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 54 Guess
"Are you okay?"

Xiao Chen lowered his head, seeing that the person in his arms was almost completely pale, he couldn't stop panting lightly, his expression couldn't help showing a bit of worry.

After a while, Shen Ruo recovered from the loss of strength. She shook her head, trying to get out of Xiao Chen's arms, but he supported her: "Don't be brave."

Shen Ruo frowned, but didn't say anything, she insisted on breaking free from his grasp, stood up straight, and said firmly, "I'm fine."

Immediately after walking to the door and opening the door, General Lin and his party who had been waiting outside immediately surrounded him and asked eagerly, "Lang'er, how is he?"

Shen Ruo comforted the excited Mrs. Lin with her eyes, but her plain tone made people calm down: "The operation was a success, Mr. Lin, as long as you don't move your injured foot during this period, after a month, when the foot bone heals, you will be fine." never mind."

"Really!? Really!? God bless, God bless!" Mrs. Lin clasped her hands together excitedly, thanking heaven non-stop.

Seeing this, General Lin glared at her: "It's obviously the concubine who saved Lang'er, why are you thanking God?"

Immediately, he looked at Shen Ruo again, as if he had relieved a heavy burden from his heart, General Lin had regained his usual calm and majestic attitude, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, you have saved Lang'er, and you have done a good job of rebuilding our Lin family. Well, if it is useful to get Lin Cheng in the future, this old man will never shirk."

"General Lin, you are being polite..."

She was about to say a few more words of greeting, but Xiao Chen had already walked behind her, and said calmly: "General Lin, the princess has spent a lot of energy in treating Young Master Ling, so we won't stay for long, we will go back first."

"and many more!"

Unexpectedly, General Lin stopped Xiao Chen.

Looking at the man in front of him who has grown into a dragon and phoenix, and even as famous as he was back then, General Lin's eyes became a little complicated: "Master Jing, what happened to your mother back then was our Lin family's fault for you. I was betrayed during the confinement period, that's why..."

"That's enough, I don't want to talk about these past events!" Xiao Chen's expression turned cold in an instant, until his eyes fell on Shen Ruo beside him, he became more relaxed, "Let's go."

Shen Ruo knew that he was in a bad mood at the moment, so she didn't say anything more, and left with him.

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, Mrs. Lin hesitated for a moment, and said, "Master, it seems that Prince Jing still has a deep grudge against us. I'm afraid it will affect the empress and the second prince in the future... Tell me, do you want me to marry you?" Go and walk around more with Princess Jing?"

"Looking at the prince's attitude towards the princess just now, it is clear that he attaches great importance to it, maybe..."

"Okay." Old General Lin interrupted her in a deep voice, "You woman, what do you know?"

Mrs. Lin suddenly lowered her head dumbly, not daring to say any more, but General Lin kept looking at the direction where King Jing and the two left, with a deep and complicated expression.

……

"In the future, if the Lin family makes an excuse to get close to you, don't pay any more attention."

In the carriage, as soon as he was not far from the Lin residence, Xiao Chen spoke in a deep voice.

Shen Ruo was leaning on the cushion, rubbing the center of her brows, her expression was tired, when she heard Xiao Chen's warning, she raised her eyes: "Because of your blood feud with the Lin family?"

Never thought about it, but Xiao Chen shook his head, he thought for a moment, and then said: "Do you still remember those assassins in the hunting ground last time?"

When Shen Ruo heard this, he immediately became serious: "Could it be with..."

Xiao Chen nodded: "Those assassins are the killers of the blood alliance in Jianghu. They only care about money and not people. I sent someone to investigate. Although the blood alliance will not inform the employer, I still only found out about this matter. I'm afraid I won't be able to get away from the Lin family."

Shen Ruo immediately sat up straight, seemingly a little unbelievable: "The Lin family is so courageous that they dare to buy the murderer to kill the prince?"

She paused, and said again: "In this case, why didn't you report this matter to the emperor?"

"One is that the above is just my guess, there is no definite evidence, even if I tell my father, it will be useless, and the other is..."

Xiao Chen didn't know what he was thinking of, his expression darkened in an instant, and he didn't want to continue talking, but unexpectedly, Shen Ruo answered, "Because of the queen?"

He looked up instantly, with shock in his eyes, but he saw that Shen Ruo just smiled: "You don't have to look at me like that, I'm just guessing. But your performance made me sure, I guessed right. "

"..." Xiao Chen stared at her closely with an extremely complicated expression. After a long time, he asked, "How did you guess that?"

But Shen Ruo leaned back on the soft pillow, looked at the top of the carriage, and said lazily: "It's not hard to guess, although you are now on the side of the prince, but you are a prince after all, so you may become an obstacle to the prince's ascension to the throne." , the queen is pleased with your growing power, but also deeply fears you."

"If the second prince's greatest support, the Lin family, falls, you will become the prince's greatest enemy."

She turned her head, her expression was still calm, Xiao Chen couldn't help but began to wonder what kind of situation would break her face.

He sighed deeply: "Shen Ruo, you are so smart, even much smarter than the king's counselors..."

He paused for a moment, his eyes flashed with inquiry: "But your performance today is not like what a smart person should do."

"What exactly do you want to do?"

His eyes were tightly locked on Shen Ruo's face, but she suddenly came closer, not avoiding his inquiry: "In order to show my use value."

At this time, the two were so close that they could even feel the other's breath, as well as the faint scent of the other's body.

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, but he didn't show it. He just took a step back calmly and said slowly, "Is it for Lin'er?"

Shen Ruo opened her mouth, and just about to speak, suddenly the horse neighed outside, as if frightened, the carriage stopped abruptly, and under the inertia, she threw herself into Xiao Chen's arms, her strong chest hit her nose immediately .

She was rubbing her nose when she heard muffled laughter from above, Xiao Chen said slowly: "It's better to be my concubine obediently than to show off your intelligence and be my counselor."

Shen Ruo's expression sank, she gave him a cold look, then stood up and asked outside, "What happened?"

Before the coachman could answer, he heard a familiar and rough voice: "Woman, you are indeed here, and it is not in vain for me to risk my life to block the way!"

Shen Ruo frowned, and her already unhappy mood became even more gloomy when she heard this voice. She asked coldly, "What are you doing here? Is it regrettable that my throwing knife didn't land on you last time?"

The Khitan prince heard her words, instead of being angry, he laughed and said, "I appreciate your violent temper!"

Seeing that Shen Ruo was about to draw his sword and attack him, the Eldest Prince changed his words and pulled a person from the side: "I heard that you are ill, this Prince specially brought the doctor to see you this time."
