son, don't mess around

Chapter 109
"Marry the eldest princess?"

Hearing the news, Lin Jiangnian was not as surprised as he imagined.

Zhi Yuan had mentioned this matter to him before, but now that Lin Hengzhong suddenly mentioned it, Lin Jiangnian was already mentally prepared.

but……

After hesitating for a while, Lin Jiangnian asked, "Is it necessary to marry?"

Lin Heng glanced at him again: "What? Don't want to marry?"

"I have never met that eldest princess before, so I have to travel thousands of miles to the capital to marry her back. Isn't it a bit too much to go to war?"

Lin Jiangyou sighed and admitted honestly: "It's true that I'm not very willing..."

He has no interest in that princess at all, let alone traveling all the way to the capital to marry a woman he doesn't know well?

Who knows what the eldest princess looks like?What about your temper?In case there are still some psychological problems...

Isn't this purely uncomfortable?
Lin Hengzhong seemed to have expected this, and nodded slightly: "You are right, but that girl is not simple!"

"She is younger than you, but now she has stepped into the Profound Sky Realm. If there is no accident, she will definitely be able to enter the Grand Master within ten years... Anyone who can marry her back is tantamount to gaining the protection of a Grand Master. Do you know what this means?"

Lin Jiangnian nodded, of course he knew what a grand master meant!
but……

For those sects of aristocratic families, great masters and masters are rare, and there are only a handful of them in the world. If they can get a blessing, the family will not decline for decades.But for Lin Hengzhong, as a king with a different surname in the Daning Dynasty, he was in charge of the military and political power in Linzhou. He was so powerful, why should he care about it?
What about the Grand Master? !
No matter how strong an individual is, he still cannot compete with a well-trained army of soldiers and horses.

In this world, there has never been a truly invincible person!

"The marriage contract between you and her was made when your mother was still alive, and it was a marriage contract that was decreed by today's emperor. Now that you have reached the age of marriage, this marriage should naturally be put on the agenda. "

As if thinking of something, Lin Hengzhong looked at Lin Jiangnian and chuckled: "That girl is not only extremely skilled in martial arts, but also talented and intelligent. I heard that she is also beautiful. If you marry her back, you will not feel wronged." about you."

"But if you don't want to..."

Lin Hengzhong paused, and waved his hands: "That's okay, Dad will find a way to help you break up this engagement when the time comes."

His tone was understated, as if he was just talking about an unimportant trifle.

Lin Jiangnian was silent.

He originally thought that Lin Hengzhong would ask him to go to Beijing to marry the eldest princess, but now it seems that this is not the case?
Lin Hengzhong handed over the choice to him?
If you don't want to, just quit?
The seemingly relaxed tone, but is it really relaxed?

After Lin Jiangnian was silent for a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Lin Hengzhong, but saw that his eyes were still calm.

"Since the marriage was bestowed by the emperor, if I regret the marriage, wouldn't the emperor be angry and punish me?"

Lin Jiangnian hesitated: "Will it implicate the Prince Lin's Mansion?"

Lin Hengzhong's eyes remained calm, "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter."

His expression and tone were light and calm.

Lin Jiangnian was silent for a long time again: "I heard..."

"There are many people in Beijing who oppose this marriage?"

"It's true."

Lin Heng nodded: "Many people in Beijing hate me deeply. Naturally, they don't want our Lin family to have more contact with the Tian family. Some people are worried that I will rob the Li family."

Lin Jiangnian's eyelids twitched suddenly.

Stealing the Li family's country?

These words are really dangerous!
But it seems normal to say these words from Lin Hengzhong?
"Then, does dad have this idea?" Lin Jiangnian asked tentatively.

Lin Heng took another look at Lin Jiangnian: "What? You want Dad to rebel?"

Lin Jiangnian shook his head: "It can be made, but it is not necessary."

"Oh?"

Lin Hengzhong seemed a little interested: "Why do you say that?"

"How can it be so easy to rebel?"

Lin Jiangyou sighed: "Even if you are powerful and powerful, you are still a king with a different surname. The Daning Dynasty belongs to the Li family. If you rebel, you will be a traitor and a traitor. People in the world will never allow it." Supporting you, the difficulty of rebellion is too high...Father, why do you have to work so hard?"

Rebellion is a technical activity!

It is something that must not be done unless it is absolutely necessary.

If we were in a troubled world today, the Daning Dynasty was in turmoil, and all the heroes rose together, maybe Lin Hengzhong would have a slight chance to succeed in rebelling, but even so, he would still be poked in the back by the people of the world.

What's more, although the Daning Dynasty is now in danger, the situation is still stable.Under such circumstances, treason is tantamount to courting death.

Even if Lin Hengzhong could really lead his army into the capital, so what?
Can you stop the mouths of people in the world?
Can the world be subdued?
At that time, I am afraid that it will fall into a bigger war.

Today, Lin Hengzhong is Lin Wang, sitting in the southern territory of the Daning Dynasty, with such power that even the emperor in Beijing is a little bit afraid.

He could almost be regarded as the local emperor of Linzhou, and basically got everything he could get, so why bother to do such a mindless rebellion?

After listening to Lin Jiangnian's words, Lin Hengzhong fell into a brief silence.

After a while, he sighed deeply: "Jiang Nian, you are right. Everyone knows such a simple truth, but..."

"Those old things in Beijing are still worried about me!"

Lin Jiangnian did not speak.

From King Lin's point of view, he really had no reason to rebel.But from the perspective of those in Beijing, it's not wrong.

A king with a different surname is powerful and powerful, occupying the southern border of the dynasty and doing whatever he wants.The power is so great, you have to guard against it!

No one can guarantee that King Lin will not rebel.Taking ten thousand steps back, if Lin Wang does not turn against him, what about Lin Wang's son?What about the future Prince Lin?

Power is in the hands of foreigners, how can those people in Beijing sleep peacefully?
"Forget it, let those old things toss."

Lin Heng waved his hand again, with a sneer on his face: "I have been fighting for many years, where have I not seen it? Just their gang of frail scholars and pedantic old things, besides scolding this king for being disgusting and disgusting behind his back, they can do what?"

How can a king with a different surname, who was promoted from the chaos of the bloody sea, be afraid of those old things who can only write?
Lin Jiangnian quietly looked at Lin Hengzhong in front of him, hesitated for a while, and suddenly said, "Father, I have an idea..."

"Ok?"

Lin Heng looked at him again: "What?"

"During these days in Linjiang City, Hai'er has suffered many assassinations. The people behind it are inseparable from the forces in Beijing... They failed to kill Hai'er this time, so they will not let it go. As long as Hai'er is in Linjiang One day in the city, they will definitely make a comeback. Instead of this, it is better to take the initiative..."

After Lin Hengzhong listened, his gaze focused: "You mean..."

Lin Jiangnian showed a sneer: "Since they want the baby's life, why not give them this chance..."

"They must really want me to go to the capital, right?"

"..."

As night falls.

In a quiet courtyard.

A beautiful figure stepped on soft steps, walked through the eaves corridor, came to the door of the room, pushed the door open, stepped into the room, lit the oil lamp on the table, and the light gradually illuminated the entire room.

There was a dampness in the room, accompanied by a burst of fragrance.After taking a shower, the room seemed to be refreshed a lot.

Zhiyuan, who was wearing a skirt, walked to a table beside her, sat down, picked up a towel and gently wiped her wet hair.

In the bronze mirror, a delicate and beautiful face was reflected.

Fair and elegant.

After wiping her hair, Zhi Yuan quietly stared at herself in the bronze mirror, silent for a long time, without any emotion on her face.

After an unknown amount of time, she withdrew her gaze, and there seemed to be an indescribable expression in her expression.Immediately, he got up slowly and went to the cabinet beside him.

Got to go!
In the past few days, she has handed over all the things that should be explained in the palace.

No worries!
She slowly packed the things in the room. She has been in the palace for several years, but she didn't leave too many things behind. She simply cleaned up. Apart from some clothes, she didn't have much luggage.

After tidying up, she sat by the bed, her eyes were a little dazed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.Not long after, the sound of footsteps in the courtyard brought her back to her senses.

The night was dark and silent, and the sound of footsteps was very obvious, even a little...familiar!
Zhiyuan was dazed for a moment, then slowly got up and went to the door of the room, opened it and walked out.

In the courtyard, Lin Jiangnian's figure happened to appear.

"Hey, what a coincidence!"

Lin Jiangnian saw Zhiyuan walking out of the room, and smiled lightly.

Zhiyuan didn't speak, what a coincidence?

This is her room, what kind of coincidence?

"Your Highness, what's the matter?"

She spoke calmly.

Lin Jiangnian walked through the courtyard, came under the eaves, walked up to Zhi Yuan, looked at her, and then at the room behind her.

She had just taken a bath, and her skin was fair and red, very delicate.The hair that hadn't completely dried out was against the skin, and that delicate face remained as usual without any emotional changes.

"There is something I want to talk to you about." Lin Jiangnian said.

Zhiyuan raised her eyes: "What's the matter?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her, with a half-smile: "Are you planning to let my son talk to you at the door?"

Zhi Yuan was silent, hesitated for a while, and said, "It's getting late...Your Highness has something to say."

Lin Jiangnian looked her up and down, and suddenly said, "You have changed."

Zhiyuan looked puzzled and frowned slightly: "Why do you say that?"

"You never rejected my son before."

Lin Jiangnian said lightly: "Looking at you now, it seems that you don't welcome me?"

Zhi Yuan was silent, and said after a while: "Your Highness is thinking too much."

"Am I thinking too much?"

Lin Jiangnian stared into her eyes, and suddenly took a step closer.

Zhi Yuan backed away subconsciously, avoiding Lin Jiangnian's sight, her expression slightly unnatural.

"What exactly is your Highness trying to say?"

"You are dishonest!"

Lin Jiangnian quietly stared at her delicate and fair face, and suddenly sneered: "As the maid of my son, you want to sneak away?"

"You maid, you are so courageous!"

As soon as the words fell, a trace of panic flashed in Zhiyuan's eyes.But soon he calmed down again, raised his eyes to look at Lin Jiangnian, and said calmly: "Your Highness knows?"

"If this son doesn't know, are you planning to sneak away?"

Lin Jiangnian sneered.

When he was in Ruyi Tower today, when he learned the identities of Liu Su and Zhiyuan, he also learned from Lin Hengzhong that Zhiyuan was leaving.

Lin Jiangnian was very surprised, he had never heard of this matter.The personal maid by his side was about to leave the palace, but his son was kept in the dark?
So, Zhiyuan didn't intend to tell him?
Lin Jiangnian was somewhat angry.

So, he immediately came to ask for accountability.

Facing Lin Jiangnian's questioning tone, Zhiyuan quickly calmed down, lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "I'm not here, is it a good thing for Your Highness?"

"Good thing?"

Zhiyuan said indifferently: "Your Highness never waited to see the servants before, and always wanted to drive them out of the palace. Now that the servants leave the palace, no one will discipline His Highness in the future, and they will no longer obstruct His eyes. Shouldn't Your Highness be happy?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned.

It seems... is that the case?

From the moment he entered the palace, he knew that Zhiyuan was not going to deal with Prince Lin.Not only that, during the few months when Lin Jiangnian was in the Prince's Mansion, she also played against Lin Jiangnian, without the flattery that a maid should have.

Now that she's gone, does it seem like a good thing?

In a daze, Lin Jiangnian looked at the delicate and slim girl in front of him, she was always calm, elegant and slightly gentle.

For some reason, Lin Jiangnian felt a little inexplicably dazed.

This maid is disobedient, she fights against him on weekdays, and she can 'catch rape' even molesting a maid, she is indeed not qualified at all.But when she was about to leave, Lin Jiangnian had an indescribable feeling.

Thinking about it again, Zhiyuan didn't seem to treat him too much as he imagined?
Although she didn't have the awareness of the duties she should have as the personal maid of Prince Lin, but other than that, she did not have any dereliction of duty.The work is impeccable, and there has never been any mistakes.Instructing Lin Jiangnian in martial arts, arranging the maidservants in the house, and arranging everything in an orderly manner.

Strictly speaking, she can be regarded as a qualified maid.

Now that he was about to leave suddenly, Lin Jiangnian was somewhat... reluctant?

Also, is it normal that such a juicy and good-looking maid suddenly wants to leave?
"What you said does make sense."

Lin Jiang sighed young: "You are gone, and no one will be able to take care of this son in the future. This is indeed a good thing, but..."

Having said this, Lin Jiangnian paused, then suddenly took another step forward, walking up to Zhi Yuan, staring down at her fair pink face.

Zhiyuan subconsciously wanted to back away, as if recalling the experience of a certain night not long ago.

"Since it's a good thing, why is Your Highness still being aggressive?"

"because……"

Lin Jiangnian opened his mouth lightly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch her delicate and small chin.

A flash of panic flashed in her eyes, Zhi Yuan immediately turned her head away, a blush quickly climbed up the side of her face, and took a step back.

"His Highness respects himself!"

Lin Jiangnian didn't have the awareness to respect himself, so he stepped forward slowly again, approaching.

"You are my maidservant!"

Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes, stared at her eyes, and said lightly: "If you want to leave the palace, you must first obtain the consent of my son!"

"Understand?"

"..."
