son, don't mess around

Chapter 181 The eldest princess is still waiting for you

As night fell, Xunyang City was still full of prosperity.

Most of the time, the bloody storms and infighting in the city have little to do with the lives of ordinary people.At least on the bright side, Xunyang City is still prosperous and stable.

Zhiyuan walked through the busy street alone, and returned to a private house a few streets away from the bustling area.

Walking into the yard, passing through the pavilions and corridors, when he was about to return to the room, he stopped suddenly.

Under the eaves not far away, Youdao's figure had been waiting for a long time.

"Where did you go?"

Lin Jiangnian sat lazily by the eaves railing, looking at her with interest.

It was a kind of undisciplined and somewhat leisurely, like a playboy on the street molesting women from good families.

However, it is not annoying.

Zhiyuan hesitated and fell silent for a while, then said softly, "I went out to do some errands."

"what's up?"

Lin Jiangnian asked.

"Meet someone."

"who?"

Zhiyuan thought for a moment: "A heroine who met by chance!"

"Woman?"

Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised and looked her over.

With Zhiyuan's character, she doesn't seem like someone who would get close to others, let alone just meet by chance?
What kind of heroine is she talking about? I’m afraid it’s not ordinary?
However, Lin Jiangnian didn't ask any more questions, he got up slowly and stretched himself.

"hungry?"

Zhiyuan's beautiful eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian. She was silent for a moment and nodded lightly.

"Go, let's eat!"

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand at her, turned around and walked outside.

Zhiyuan stared at his back, startled for a moment.

Is he specifically waiting for me?
Zhi Yuan looked at Lin Jiangnian, then at the place where he had been sitting before, and was silent for a long time before slowly following.

After the meal, Lin Qingqing came to report the information in the city again, but nothing major happened, but everything seemed calm after a storm.

Lin Jiangnian was no longer interested in this, so he asked about the situation of the wounded.

A secret room in the back of a private house collapsed, causing many of Lin Jiangnian's pro-military guards to be injured. Even Lin Kong was seriously injured and almost lost his life.They all stayed outside the city to recuperate this time and did not enter the city.

"Your Highness, their injuries are no longer serious."

Lin Qingqing also kept an eye on the situation outside the city, hesitated for a while, and then asked: "Your Highness, what should we do next?"

"What do you think?" Lin Jiangnian asked her opinion.

Lin Qingqing thought for a while, and said: "Your Highness, we have wasted a lot of time in Xunyang City, the weather is getting colder and colder, and if it drags on, it will soon enter winter. Once winter comes and encounters heavy snow, I am afraid it will not be easy to hurry... ..."

Lin Qingqing naturally hoped that His Highness would enter Beijing as soon as possible, but she thought that His Highness might have some important things to do, so she held back.

"You're right, since everyone's injuries are about to heal, it's time to prepare to leave!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded. Now that the Wang family was wiped out and he saw Zhiyuan again, the purpose of coming to Xunyang City was almost achieved. It was time to leave.

Lin Qingqing received His Highness's approval and immediately hurried down to prepare for the journey.

Lin Jiangnian rested in the courtyard for a while, but he didn't find Xiao Zhu, so he turned around and went to the small courtyard where Zhi Yuan lived.

As soon as he walked into the small courtyard, he saw Xiaozhu hurrying towards him.

"Your Highness?"

"What are you doing?" Lin Jiangnian asked, his eyes fell on Xiaozhu's hand, holding a basin of hot water towels, and was about to walk to Zhiyuan's room.

Xiaozhu explained softly: "Go and give sister Zhiyuan some medicine!"

"Medicine?"

Lin Jiangnian just remembered something, looked at the room, then at Xiao Zhu: "Give it to me!"

"what?!"

Xiaozhu blinked, but didn't react for a while.

Lin Jiangnian had already reached out and took the hot water towel from her hand: "You should go back first. I have something to discuss with Zhiyuan."

"okay……"

Xiao Zhu watched in a daze as His Highness walked into Sister Zhi Yuan's room with a hot towel, and she left the small courtyard obediently.It wasn't until I walked out of the small courtyard that I gradually realized that something was wrong?

Your Highness has something to do with Sister Zhi Yuan?

but……

Didn't Miss Zhiyuan take her medicine yet?

Your Highness...

What is this going to do?
……

As soon as Lin Jiangnian stepped into the room, he saw that the room was filled with hot mist, as if he had just taken a bath, mixed with the scent of a girl, and permeated the air.

good smell!

Lin Jiangnian closed the door and locked it, blocking the cold wind outside the door and leaving the fragrance in the room.

Turning around, he saw a figure sitting on the bed behind the screen not far away.

When he saw that the person walking into the room was Lin Jiangnian, his tone was somewhat wary: "Why is it you?"

Lin Jiangnian walked to the bed, put down the hot water towel, looked at Zhiyuan sitting on the bed with a vigilant and uncomfortable face, and smiled half-smile: "Why can't it be me?"

Zhiyuan looked slightly unnatural and turned away: "Where is Xiaozhu?"

"She has something to do, go get busy!"

Zhiyuan's face was expressionless, with a slightly displeased expression.

Obviously, another very lame reason.

She glanced at the hot water towel beside her, and seemed to realize something. A blush appeared on her face, but it quickly disappeared.

"It's time to change the medicine!"

Lin Jiangnian stood beside the bed, reminding and urging.

Zhiyuan didn't speak or move.

"What? Do you need me to take it off for you?"

A hint of shame and anger emerged, Zhiyuan raised her eyes and glared at him.

After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth lightly: "Let Xiao Zhu come."

"They say Xiaozhu is busy with something and has no time!"

Zhiyuan naturally didn't believe it, she glared at him lightly and glared.

Lin Jiangnian looked into her eyes, "What? Could it be that this son is not good? You don't believe this son's ability to give you medicine?"

Is it a question of believe it or not?
She believed in Lin Jiangnian's skills in applying medicine, but she didn't believe in other aspects of this guy...

The two stood in a stalemate for a moment, looking at each other.

Lin Jiangnian looked playful, obviously planning to make things difficult for her tonight.

Zhiyuan glanced at him angrily, then finally looked away and didn't speak.

Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian stepped forward and said, "Do you need my prince to help you take off your clothes?"

Zhiyuan's delicate body trembled slightly, and suddenly felt her face was red hot, she clenched her silver teeth, turned her head away, her tone was dull, as if she was a little ashamed and angry, but also seemed to be very angry.

"Need not!"

"..."

Lin Jiangnian was already familiar with the process of changing the dressing, and the injury on Zhi Yuan's back was almost healed, and even the scars had faded a lot.This day's balm really deserves to be a wonderful medicine for healing wounds. In such a severe trauma, only inconspicuous traces remained in a short period of time.

It is estimated that after taking medicine for a while, he will be able to truly and completely recover.

Perhaps he was still angry. After changing the medicine, Zhiyuan lay down in his clothes, wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, turned his back to Lin Jiangnian, and ignored him.

Angry!

Lin Jiangnian wasn't annoyed, but felt that she was getting cuter and cuter.

She had never seen such a sulking look before.Lin Jiangnian glanced out the window. After packing up the things in the room, he took off his coat and went to bed with ease.

Just when he wanted to get into the quilt like before, but the quilt had already been tightly wrapped by paper kites, there was no room for him to get in.

"Hey, do you want to freeze this son to death?"

Lin Jiangnian pulled off the quilt but didn't move it, seeing that she did it on purpose.

Zhiyuan didn't say a word, she huddled under the quilt with her back to him, motionless.

"If you don't let go, will I force my way in?"

"..."

"If I accidentally hurt you later, don't scream!"

"..."

"My prince has come in!"

"..."

In the darkness, after a while of pulling on the bed, Lin Jiangnian finally got what he wanted and got into the warm quilt.

Feeling the warmth and fragrance wrapped in the quilt, Lin Jiangnian turned around and hugged the stubborn and angry girl next to him from behind.

"Let go, let me go!"

"Don't let go... If you struggle again, I'll be groping!"

"..."

The kite didn't move.

As if frightened, her delicate body was tense and motionless.

Lin Jiangnian quietly hugged the girl in his arms, sniffing the fragrance from her hair, feeling the softness and warmth of the girl in his arms, somewhat moved.

Hard work pays off!
The relationship between him and Zhiyuan has also changed from being incompatible at the beginning, to sharing the same bed as a matter of course now.

It went smoothly and quickly.

Maybe, can we go one step closer?

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian's eyes became a little fiery.

In the middle of the night, the cold wind is blowing outside the window, and the weather is cold, suitable for sports.

After a while, just as Lin Jiangnian was trying to find something, he suddenly felt his hand being pulled hard by Zhi Yuan under the quilt.

Lin Jiangnian tried to break free, but he still underestimated Zhiyuan, who tightened his hand tightly to prevent him from moving.

Stalemate!

After a while, Lin Jiangnian sighed, leaned into her ear and said helplessly, "As for defending me so much?"

Zhiyuan didn't look back, but her voice trembled slightly: "No!"

"why?"

silence.

for a long time.

"When are you leaving for the capital?"

Her voice was very soft, no emotion could be heard.

Lin Jiangnian was taken aback, a little surprised, why did she suddenly ask this in the middle of the night?
However, Lin Jiangnian still replied: "Hurry up, if you want, we can leave tomorrow..."

Silence continued again.

After waiting for a while, Lin Jiangnian continued to try to get started.

But it was quickly blocked.

At this time, Zhiyuan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke in a low voice.

"The eldest princess is still waiting for you!"

Hearing this nonsensical sentence, Lin Jiangnian was puzzled.

Princess?
"wait for me?"

The eldest princess is waiting for him?
Are you sure you're not waiting to break his dog's leg?
"Go to sleep."

Before Lin Jiangnian could speak, Zhi Yuan seemed to say something lightly.

Still very light tone, no waves.After she finished speaking, she remained silent and seemed to have fallen asleep.

But for some reason, she could clearly feel a trace of resistance from her.

Inexplicable.

Lin Jiangnian looked down at the quiet and cold face of the girl in his arms, thoughtful.

What she said...

Are you implying something?

still is……

……

The Wang family fell, and the prefect's mansion was formally controlled by the governor of Yanzhou. Lin Jiangnian and others did not need to hide in Tibet.What's more, the governor of Yanzhou kindly invited Lin Jiangnian to live in the prefect's mansion.

Rejected by Lin Jiangnian!

Yuan Zhongnan probably did not have any good intentions in doing this.

Now in Xunyang City, countless pairs of eyes are watching every move of the prefect's mansion, and any disturbance will attract the attention of others.Not to mention that the news of the Wang family's demise could not be concealed.The Prefect's Mansion is a place of right and wrong.

If Lin Jiangnian moved into the prefect's mansion at this time, it would be like inviting trouble.

Yuan Zhongnan's calculations sounded loud, and he wanted to pull Lin Jiangnian to bear the consequences of the destruction of the Wang family, and take part of the pressure and firepower for him as the son of Lin Wang.

Lin Jiangnian would naturally not let him get his wish, not to mention that the news of his 'death' had already spread throughout the world.After what happened some time ago, most people believed that Prince Lin had been killed.

The turmoil in the city a few nights ago made many people even more certain of this.

Lin Jiangnian was so happy too!

Right now everyone thinks he has been killed, which is actually a good thing.In this way, he can hide in the dark and strategize.

On the other side, Yuan Zhongnan was not idle either.

After getting clues about the Tenjin Sect from Lin Jiangnian, he sent people to search the city non-stop to arrest the suspects.

Then he sent people out of the city to take over the soldiers and horses inside and outside Xunyang City, and at the same time mobilized his cronies to rush to Xunyang City.

News of the upheaval in the prefect's mansion had already begun, and Yuan Zhongnan did not have much time left. Before that, he had to hold the entire Xunyang City in his hands.

At the same time, Yuan Zhongnan did not let go of anyone related to the Wang family.Although the Wang family was wiped out, there are still many trusted members of the Wang family who hold important positions inside and outside Xunyang City.

For example, Wang Shi, the county magistrate outside Xunyang City, is a distant relative of the Wang family. Following this clue, many people related to it were dug up in a series.Even the two brothers Xie Yongan and Xie Yongqing hadn't even realized what was going on, and they were put on their heads by soldiers and horses sent from Xunyang City.

Regarding this clue, the news about human trafficking and the abduction and trafficking of good women into prostitution came to light. Wang Shi and others did not even have a chance to quibble, so they were beheaded by Yuan Zhongnan with a wave of his hand.

The people of Xunyang City applauded, but it also aroused suspicion and vigilance from other aristocratic families in Xunyang City.

At this time, the news that the Wang family was wiped out could no longer be concealed.

As the news came to light, the whole city was in an uproar, shocked and astonished.

From the aristocratic families to the common people, everyone was stunned by this news and couldn't believe it.

The Wang family was wiped out?

The prefect's mansion was taken over by a bunch of people?
The majestic Xunyang prefect was first imprisoned for treason, and then assassinated in prison?
This is too exciting, right?

After being shocked, ordinary people clapped their hands happily.

There was such a fierce commotion in the city some time ago. Wang Qin, the son of the prefect, preyed on the people, bullied men and dominated women, but was protected by the government. The people were already filled with anger.

Now hearing that the Wang family was wiped out, although it is miserable, many people are still full of joy in their hearts.

God has eyes!
On the other side, although people from various families had expected it, they were still terrified when they actually got the news.When he reacted, he quickly realized that something was wrong.

Leaving aside the charges of the Wang family being imprisoned...Would it be too coincidental that the members of the Wang family were assassinated right after they were imprisoned?
It's a bit too much like being murdered and silenced!

Is it to hide some truth?
For a time, all doubts and suspicions were directed at Yuan Zhongnan.

Naturally, the various aristocratic families did not sit still and wait for death. The news that the Wang family was wiped out made them aware of the incomparable crisis, and they were ready to take action, with undercurrents surging.

The weird atmosphere in the entire Xunyang City was extremely dull at this moment.

It was also at this time that Lin Jiangnian had already hidden his achievements and fame, quietly left Xunyang City, and continued his journey to the north and into Beijing!
