son, don't mess around

Chapter 16

In the early morning of the second day, Lin Jiangnian woke up as usual.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and then the maids from yesterday appeared as usual, ready to wait for His Highness to change and wash.

Not surprisingly, the little maid from yesterday was still following behind the maid, lowering her head carefully, as if you couldn't see me.

She raised her eyes cautiously, and took a tentative glance at His Royal Highness.When he realized that His Highness Shizi's gaze was falling on her, he quickly lowered himself like a frightened bird.

Pretty face was flushed, her little heart was beating, nervous and flustered.

"You all go out."

Lin Jiangnian's eyes fell on her, and he waved his hands meaningfully, "It's fine for her to stay."

"Yes."

Seeing this, the two maids knew that His Highness still liked the little maid from yesterday, and left the room after putting down their things.

By the way, the door was closed.

"boom!"

There was a slight sound of closing the door, and the little girl's heart skipped a beat.The nervous heart hangs, and the fingers are intertwined and pinched slightly red.

dare not look up.

Luckily, Sister Zhiyuan came in time yesterday, His Highness didn't...

But then she thought again, it seemed that she accidentally fell into His Highness's arms yesterday... Her face turned even redder.

"Looked up."

There was an expressionless voice from His Highness.

Xiaozhu's tender body tensed up, and she carefully lifted up a delicate, but flushed and flustered face.

The pitch-black pupils were full of panic, and he stammered: "His Royal Highness, Your Highness..."

Lin Jiangnian quietly looked at the nervous little maid in front of him. Compared with the two maids just now, this little maid seemed to be more foolish.

The pitiful appearance can easily arouse a desire to bully.

"What are you still doing?"

Lin Jiangnian said with a stern face: "Why don't you come over and wait for this son to change clothes?!"

"Ah, oh..."

The little girl just woke up like a dream, her face was flushed, she walked carefully to Lin Jiangnian, stretched out her little hand tremblingly, and began to help His Royal Highness change clothes.

As soon as her slender hands touched His Highness's body, she felt a soft and warm breath. She immediately remembered what happened yesterday, and her face became more fluttering, like a ripe apple that made people want to take a bite.

Perhaps because of nervousness and fear, her movements were trembling and unfamiliar, she couldn't tie her clothes even after struggling for a long time, the little maid was so nervous that she was about to cry.

"Take your time, don't rush."

Lin Jiangnian's expressionless voice came from his ear.

The little maid shuddered, and looked up at His Highness with some fear, and saw that His Highness was expressionless, and her voice was devoid of any emotion.

But for some reason, I felt that His Highness didn't seem to blame her or mean to be angry?
The little maid's hanging heart relaxed slightly, and finally helped His Highness get dressed after stumbling.

Standing in front of the mirror, Lin Jiangnian saw a handsome young man through the bronze mirror.Dressed in a green python, with gold silk tracks wrapped around his waist, he has an outstanding temperament, a delicate appearance, a dignified appearance, and a bit of a gentle temperament.

Standing by the side, Xiaozhu cautiously looked at his highness through the bronze mirror, looking at the majestic and somewhat gentle highness in the bronze mirror, he was a little dazed for a while.

Your Highness, it seems to be different from what those sisters said?
They said that His Highness has a bad temper, moody, and often beat and scolded them... There was once a servant girl in the house who angered His Highness because she was slow in serving His Highness, and was dragged out and beaten for half the night.

but……

The little maid lowered her head, thinking of just now... She moved slowly and clumsily, not only did His Highness not drag her out to beat her, but she didn't even seem to be angry?

The little maid tilted her head, and there was some doubt and confusion in her nimble eyes.

……

Lin Jiangnian quickly reflected in the mirror and saw the little maid who was secretly peeking behind her. She looked dazed and cute.

"What are you looking at?"

He straightened his face immediately and turned around expressionlessly.

"ah……"

The little maid hurriedly lowered her head and said in a panic, "No, I didn't see anything..."

Seeing her nonchalant appearance, Lin Jiangnian didn't continue, and glanced outside the door: "Where's the kite?"

The little maid lowered her head and whispered, "Go back to Your Highness, sister Zhiyuan has gone out."

"Where did you go?"

"The servant does not know..."

The little maid spoke softly.

Lin Jiangnian seemed to think of something, and narrowed his eyes: "So, she's not at the house now?"

"Um……"

Lin Jiangnian heaved a sigh of relief.

In Linwang Mansion, the person who threatens him the most is this kite.Every time he faced her, Lin Jiangnian had to work hard and be cautious.

Knowing that she is not at the house now, Lin Jiangnian is much more relaxed.

"I'm hungry, my son wants to eat."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at the little maid beside him who was still in a daze, and patted her on the head lightly.

The little maid was suddenly slapped on the head, and she was in a daze.After regaining consciousness, her little face was flushed, and she said nervously: "Morning, breakfast is ready, your highness, your highness is coming with your slaves..."

As she said that, she almost ran away from here.

……

Zhi Yuan was not at the Prince Lin's Mansion today, Lin Jiangnian was relieved, but at the same time his mind became active.

Right now, he not only has to prevent his identity from being exposed, but on the other hand, he has to find a way to find out the identity of the woman in red.

And find out what is the Gu poison she planted?
What happened last night made Lin Jiangnian frightened. She was afraid that she had been wary of Lin Jiangnian's detoxification from the very beginning!
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian's face darkened slightly.

If he doesn't understand this poison, his life will always be under her control and become a puppet in her hands. When her goal is achieved, Lin Jiangnian will definitely die.

"Gu poison..."

Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes, thinking of the people around the woman in red, silent.

Gu poison is probably not something that ordinary people can have.If we can find out the origins of those people around her, maybe we can find some clues...

Just as Lin Jiangnian was contemplating his next plan, a familiar figure rushed in again.

Lin Jiangnian looked up, and saw yesterday's...brother?
"Why are you here again?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at Xu Lan who barged in without any hesitation, "Do you think this is your home?"

"if not?"

Xu Lan sat across from Lin Jiangnian generously, and glanced at him a little proudly: "I am Uncle Lin's niece, and this Linwang Mansion is also half of my girl's home. Is there any problem if I go home?" ?”

"Have."

After eating and drinking, Lin Jiangnian slowly got up, glanced at her, turned and walked outside.

"You are not welcome in this home."

"Is this girl worthy of your welcome?"

Xu Lan glared at him lightly, seeing Lin Jiangnian walking towards the door, followed him again: "Where are you going?"

"sleep."

Lin Jiangnian didn't want to talk to her.

Xu Lan and Prince Lin have known each other since childhood, so it's inevitable that she will see some flaws, so it's better to have less contact.

"Are you a pig? Go to bed early in the morning?"

Xu Lan glanced at the sky outside, seemed to think of something, rolled her eyes: "The weather is nice today, do you want to go out for a walk?"

Lin Jiangnian stopped in his tracks and looked back at her with strange eyes: "You mean...you asked my son to go out with you?"

Xu Lan nodded excitedly: "Is there any problem?"

Lin Jiangnian's eyes fell on Xu Lan's chest, and he sighed with some regret.

"I'm sorry, this son is not good at this."

Xu Lan was startled, what do you mean?
When she noticed Lin Jiangnian's eyes, she subconsciously lowered her head to take a look, and then the expression on her face gradually froze.
