son, don't mess around

Chapter 37 Ruyi Building

In the next two days, Lin Jiangnian was much more relaxed.

When I got up in the morning, the servants who came to serve Lin Jiangnian were replaced by the two maids from before. From the maids, I learned that Xiao Zhu did not dare to come.

I heard that they were called away by the kite.

Lin Jiangnian naturally knew the reason. Zhi Yuan made it clear that she wanted to protect the little maid, and at the same time, it was also a kind of... provocation to him, the prince's son?
Now that Lin Jiangnian's status is not stable, he is not qualified to wrestle with her for the time being, so he doesn't plan to continue to haggle with her.

For the time being, write down this account!
Dress, wash, eat!

After breakfast, Lin Jiangnian wandered around the palace at will.While taking a walk, I wrote down the routes of various buildings, large and small, in the palace. The palace located at the foot of the mountain is not only huge, but also has a large number of people.Lin Jiangnian couldn't even complete half of the palace after turning around.

However, Lin Jiangnian found out the location of the Buddhist scriptures pavilion in the palace from the mouth of the maid in the mansion.

Located between two mountains, under the majestic mountains, several rivers are formed by the high mountains and flowing water.The river eventually converges to form a huge pool of water.The pool is one thousand meters deep and bottomless, so it is called Sun Moon Lake.

Above the water pool, there is an attic in the sky. The attic has seven floors, beautifully decorated, towering and majestic.Outside the attic, there are also master guards around the vicinity, guarding and keeping it.

Here is the place where the Sutra Library of Linwang Mansion is located.

Ruyi Building!
The name of Ruyi Building is said to be that in the early years Lin Wang Lin Hengzhong met an expert when he was walking in the rivers and lakes, and under the guidance of the expert, he suddenly realized something.When the attic was built later, it was named Ruyi Building, which means wishful thinking!

In this wishful building, there are secrets of Jianghu martial arts collected by the palace over the years, unique learning, peerless weapons, rare herbs and pills, world culture and martial arts strategies, and even art of war, strategy for the country...

The entire building is all-encompassing, like a treasure chest, with everything that one expects to find, containing countless treasures from all over the world.

There have always been rumors in the world that there are unimaginable rare medicinal herbs treasured in the Ruyi Building!

Fifteen years ago, King Lin led his army to quell the rebellion and wipe out the royal family of Miaojiang, and wiped out all the treasures in the palace of Miaojiang.

Rumor has it that the soil in the territory of Miaojiang is fertile, growing and planting all kinds of rare treasures in the world, and all kinds of rare medicinal herbs that are almost extinct.And the royal family of Miaojiang has been good at medicine and poison making for generations.

When Miao Jiang fell to the country, the baby of the entire Miao Jiang royal family also naturally returned to the Linwang Mansion.It is rumored that after Lin Hengzhong searched for these rare treasures, he stored them in the Ruyi Building.

Lin Jiangnian was a little moved when he heard the news.

In addition to martial arts cheats, Lin Jiangnian is also more interested in those rare medicinal herbs!

Now he still has the Gu poison from the woman in red in his body, threatening his life at any time.This Gu poison is difficult to detect and difficult to remove.

Ordinary antidote may not be effective at all. If Ruyi Building is really like the rumors outside, it stores rare and rare medicinal herbs and pills in the world, maybe you can find an antidote to detoxify Gu poison?

However, after a short period of excitement, Lin Jiangnian quickly calmed down again!

Although he knew about the existence of Ruyi Building, there was another problem before him.

How to enter Ruyi Building?
As the son of Prince Lin, it is not difficult to enter and exit the Ruyi Building.

But the problem is...

In the past, the Prince Lin was not interested in this Ruyi Building. In the eyes of the Prince Lin, the treasures in the Ruyi Building were not even as interesting as the banned books in the room.

Therefore, for so many years, the son of Lin Wang has almost never stepped into Ruyi Tower.

This point was found out by Lin Jiangnian from the maid in the mansion.As a result, things are a bit tricky instead.

Prince Lin's son almost never went to the Ruyi Tower. If Lin Jiangnian went rashly, it would be hard not to attract attention.Especially that kite...she might suspect something immediately.

Therefore, although his heart is urgent, Lin Jiangnian also knows that there is no rush.

If he wanted to enter the Ruyi Building in a fair manner, he needed a reason, a reason that was reasonable and would not attract attention and suspicion!

……

Temporarily unable to enter Ruyi Building, Lin Jiangnian was not idle.Taking advantage of these two days to get acquainted with the palace, I remembered the faces of many people in the palace, and at the same time, learned more news.

Information about Linwang Mansion, about the current situation of the Daning Dynasty.

The situation in the palace is rather simple. Concubine Lin died early, and Prince Lin did not accept any more wives and concubines. This son of Prince Lin has no brothers and sisters. The pinnacle of life.

Not surprisingly, if King Lin dies in the future, this Prince Lin's son will be hereditary successor, just like the King Xu in Xuzhou in the north, he will continue to inherit the territory of the Lin family in Linzhou.

It's a pity that those Prince Lin's sons are too short-lived, and Lin Jiangnian is actually cheaper.

As for the current structure of the Daning Dynasty, it can be described as extremely complicated!

Although the dynasty is unified in name, in a strict sense, the excessive power of local forces also seriously hinders the centralization of power.

In particular, the two kings with different surnames in the north and the south are the most powerful, the king Lin who is entrenched in Linzhou, and the king Xu who is in Xuzhou in the north, are collectively called the kings of the north and the south by the people of the world.The two kings with different surnames supported their own self-respect, which caused great hidden dangers to the dynasty.

In recent years, the imperial court has been trying its best to weaken the military power in the hands of the two, and even cut down the vassal.

But the effect is negligible!
The reason, apart from the fact that the two kings with different surnames are huge and cannot be easily shaken, also has a huge reason within the court.

A few years ago, the emperor of the Daning Dynasty was suddenly seriously ill and could not be cured for a long time. After ordering the prince to supervise the country, the emperor retreated into the deep palace and seldom appeared in the past few years.

Above the court, although the prince is capable, he is weak and unable to preside over the overall situation.The forces of all parties in the court are undercurrents, and it is difficult to be united.

In addition, when the emperor was in seclusion, there was a very trusted eunuch by his side, who was responsible for delivering the emperor's will.The eunuchs in the palace themselves have no power, but they may be worried about what happens to them, or they may be monitoring the court.Before the emperor retreated, he handed over the power of the Dynasty Mi Tiansi to him.

With the power of Mi Tiansi, the power of the eunuch is also growing day by day, which has gradually affected the situation of the court.

Therefore, the eunuchs gradually messed up the government!

Today's dynasty and court structure can be regarded as three parts of the world, with the princeling party as the leader, the old eunuchs in charge of secret affairs, and the two dynasties check each other, confront each other, and fight openly and secretly.

The structure of the Daning Dynasty has nothing to do with Lin Jiangnian, the only thing he cares about is the eldest princess of the dynasty.

After all, she has a marriage contract with Prince Lin.

Lin Jiangnian didn't know much about the origin of the eldest princess. He had learned a little bit from Xu Lan before.

The marriage of the Daning dynasty, marrying the eldest princess to the son of Prince Lin, is obviously a kind of solicitation.

However, it is not clear whether it is to win over or have other plans.Political marriage usually has a deep meaning behind it!
What Lin Jiangnian was interested in was not the eldest princess, but what Xu Lan had mentioned... was the eldest princess a second-rank master of the Profound Sky Realm?
How strong is the second grade Tianxuan?
Lin Jiangnian didn't have any idea, but he was definitely not someone like Xu Lan who could touch porcelain.

Lin Jiangnian wanted to know more, but he found that no one could help him in this regard.

The woman in red still didn't come back, and the maids and maids in the house didn't know much about martial arts.As for asking Zhiyuan?
That's not realistic either!
The only person who might be able to solve Lin Jiangnian's confusion is probably...Xu Lan?
However, since what happened that day, Xu Lan has not appeared for two days.

It seems that what happened that day caused a lot of psychological shadow on her. She did not come to the palace again, but she did not break her promise and did not expose Lin Jiangnian's identity.

A delicate balance was maintained between the two, holding each other's handles and maintaining a tacit understanding.

However, that's fine too!
Just when Lin Jiangnian thought that the girl would not dare to come again for a short time.

After two days' absence, Xu Lan came to the door again.

……

Lin Jiangnian was somewhat surprised when he saw Xu Lan again.

"How did you come?"

"Can't my girl come?"

Xu Lan crossed her arms and glanced at him sideways, with that disdainful look in her eyes, as well as the arrogance that this girl would come whenever she wanted.

Familiar expression, familiar barbaric tone.

"Okay, of course."

Lin Jiangnian spread his hands and glanced at her, a little amused: "Then what is Miss Xu doing here today?"

"Of course I will settle accounts with you!"

Xu Lan sneered, and her eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian, as if thinking of something, complex emotions flashed across her.

She stared at Lin Jiangnian condescendingly, and sneered: "You don't think that what happened two days ago, just forget it?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned, and looked up at Xu Lan's recalcitrant expression, a little dazed: "Did anything happen two days ago?"

"boom!"

Xu Lan slapped the table angrily, and said angrily: "Stop pretending to be stupid for this girl!"

"This girl is here to settle accounts with you today!!"

"..."

side yard.

Zhiyuan sat under the eaves, quietly flipping through the information sent by his subordinates.

Although she is a maid in the palace, she is in the hands of almost all the decisions of the big and small affairs in the palace.

His Highness was assassinated a few days ago, implicating many forces in Linjiang City.But following the investigation behind the scenes, it was discovered that things were far from being as simple as imagined.

"Who on earth is it?"

Zhiyuan was silent, her eyes slightly cold.

Her duty and mission is to protect His Highness's safety, and it was her dereliction of duty that His Highness was frightened by the assassination.

Finding out the mastermind behind that has become the most important thing for her right now.Now that the voice of the imperial court cutting down the vassals is getting stronger and stronger, those people's eyes are naturally on His Highness.

His Highness is the only son of the prince, if something goes wrong with His Highness, the huge family business of the Linwang Mansion may end up with no one to inherit it.

Thinking of this, Zhi Yuan's eyes drooped slightly, without saying a word.

At this time, a maid hurriedly appeared under the eaves.

"Miss, Miss Xu is here, she went to find His Highness..."

Zhiyuan raised her eyes slightly, and was stunned for a moment: "She, what is the matter with His Highness?"

"No, I don't know, but...Miss Xu seems to be very angry, saying that she is going to settle accounts with His Highness..."

The maid whispered: "Just now, Miss Xu dragged His Highness out of the palace, saying that she was going, going..."

Zhiyuan's eyes narrowed: "Where are you going?"

"The brothel."

"..."
