son, don't mess around

Chapter 74
The next day, early in the morning.

Lin Jiangnian appeared in the backyard on time and started practicing.

As usual, first step on the horse and stand on the ground to practice.An hour later, I was exhausted and out of breath.

The paper kite still didn't appear.

However, today another person came.

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyes and scanned the strange figure in front of the yard, "Who are you?"

"Return to Your Highness, my subordinate Lin Qingqing is a guard next to His Royal Highness."

The one who spoke was a fairly handsome woman with delicate features and a slightly heroic temperament.

Wearing an off-white robe and tunic, he is capable and exquisite.It is clearly a daughter, but it gives people a very bold temperament.

Women don't let the eyebrows!

The guards of the palace?
Lin Jiangnian looked at the strange woman in front of him with a slightly suspicious expression.

He didn't know the woman in front of him.

As if seeing Lin Jiangnian's doubts, Lin Qingqing bowed his head and said respectfully: "This subordinate has no father or mother since childhood, and was adopted by the prince. He was secretly trained to become a close army around His Highness, responsible for secretly protecting His Highness, and handling some things for His Highness... "

"Subordinates rarely show up in front of His Highness, and it is normal for His Highness not to remember his subordinates."

Another orphan adopted by Lin Hengzhong?

Lin Jiangnian was startled, and seemed to realize something immediately, staring at Lin Qingnian in front of him: "Did Zhiyuan send you here?"

"Yes."

Lin Qingqing nodded: "Sister Zhiyuan asked her subordinates to come here today to teach His Highness how to practice."

as predicted.

Lin Jiangnian knows that there is a mysterious force in the palace, and it is said that it is controlled by Zhi Yuan.Now that he heard the identity of the orphan Lin Qingqing in front of him, he naturally guessed something.

Lin Qingqing in front of her is indeed Zhiyuan's person!
"Let you guide me?"

Lin Jiangnian looked playfully: "Why doesn't she come?"

Lin Qingqing bowed her head and said, "This subordinate doesn't know."

"You are her subordinate, why don't you know?" Lin Jiangnian looked at the woman in front of him and asked lightly.

She said that she was Prince Lin's heir to the army, but why didn't she obey Zhi Yuan?

Lin Qingqing still lowered her head, and said respectfully: "This subordinate is only responsible for carrying out orders, and doesn't know Sister Zhi Yuan's intentions."

Good one to carry out the order!
Lin Jiangnian was about to question her whether she was carrying out his order or Zhi Yuan's order.Thoughts popped up, and I couldn't bear it anymore.

Lin Qingqing in front of her was obviously a member of Zhi Yuan's group, so there was no need to ask such nonsense that already knew the answer.

"alright."

Lin Jiangnian nodded, and glanced at her again: "In that case, how do you plan to teach my son martial arts?"

Lin Qingqing said: "His Royal Highness still has to start from the most basic of martial arts. In the past two days, His Highness can also start with martial arts in fists and feet..."

"What I'm teaching His Highness today is how to punch, how to withdraw strength, and how to use it in conjunction with inner strength and mental methods..."

"..."

"His Royal Highness should be strong and powerful when punching, and can be retracted freely... When punching, you must pour all your strength into one point, and at the same time use the mobilization of the 'Qi' in your body to maximize the power..."

"His Royal Highness has not yet fully grasped the essentials. You should continue to strengthen the basic training and stabilize the lower body so that you can stay still..."

"..."

Pain, torture!
For Lin Jiangnian, this was an extremely difficult and painful torture.

As a person who has never been in contact with martial arts, even basic martial arts can be regarded as hell difficulty for Lin Jiangnian.

After Lin Jiangnian had practiced all the basics of martial arts several times, he was already exhausted and collapsed on the ground, motionless.

"It can't be done... This son is going to die, so I won't practice anymore... I won't practice today..."

Not far from the side, Lin Qingqing still lowered her head, and said, "Your Highness has taught His Highness all the basics of martial arts that His Highness needs to practice. His Highness only needs to follow these repeated exercises in the future, and he will definitely learn something." become."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingqing raised her eyes slightly, and couldn't help but glanced at Lin Jiangnian, who was lying on the ground not far away, with a trace of doubt and surprise in her eyes.

There are rumors in the palace that His Royal Highness is ignorant, pampered and pampered, and he is an out-and-out second-generation ancestor.

In the eyes of many people, if His Highness wants to practice martial arts on a whim this time, he will probably be dismissed as quickly as last time.After all, the hardships and efforts required to practice martial arts are unimaginable.

No one knows better than them how difficult this road is!

His Highness could be at ease as his carefree son, His Highness, so why bother to suffer?What's more, the rumored Prince Lin himself is a playboy.

It shouldn't be!
But today's scene was somewhat unexpected to Lin Qingqing.

Your Highness actually... persevered?

How can His Royal Highness endure the boring and painful martial arts training?Even lying on the ground without any image?

This completely overturned Lin Qingqing's stereotype of Prince Lin's son.

Your Highness...

It doesn't seem to be as unbearable as they say?

……

The morning passed quickly, and Lin Jiangnian regained some strength after a short rest. He took a cold shower, changed into clean clothes, returned to his room after lunch, and began to exercise and practice inner strength and mental methods.

With the circulation of the Xuanyang mental method in the body, the soreness and fatigue left by the practice in the morning also eased a lot.

Lin Jiangnian was finally able to confirm that this Xuanyang inner strength method could indeed regulate and heal his fatigue and injuries.

No wonder there is a saying that exercise can heal injuries, it is true.

After noticing that his body had recovered a lot, Lin Jiangnian finished his work and walked out of the room.

Outside the door, stood two maids.

Xiao Zhu was impressively among them.

"Your Highness!"

Xiaozhu lowered his head and opened his mouth.

"Ah."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and asked, "Where's the kite?"

"The servant does not know..."

When Xiaozhu heard His Highness asking about Sister Zhiyuan, he subconsciously said, "Your Highness, do you want to see Sister Zhiyuan?"

"Ah."

"Then, servant girl, go and call sister Zhiyuan?"

"No need."

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "Where does she live? Take me there to have a look."

When Xiaozhu heard the words, he opened his eyes wide.

Your Highness wants to meet Sister Zhi Yuan in person?
What is Your Highness going to do?
Xiao Zhu was full of doubts, but still nodded obediently, and led Lin Jiangnian to Zhi Yuan's residence.

Zhiyuan's residence is in a small courtyard not too far from Lin Jiangnian's courtyard.As a maid of the palace, she can have her own small courtyard, which also shows that Zhiyuan's status is not bad.

The small courtyard is quiet and not too big. There are some flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, which is full of greenery and adds a bit of literary and artistic atmosphere.

Can't you see that her cold appearance is still so leisurely and elegant?
"Your Highness, do you need a servant to inform Sister Zhi Yuan?"

Xiaozhu's voice came from beside him.

Lin Jiangnian shook his head lightly: "No, you step back first."

Xiao Zhu nodded obediently, her small eyes were full of big doubts.After looking at His Highness, and then not far away, he carefully exited the yard.

After Lin Jiangnian scanned the courtyard for a while, he looked away, and walked to the door of the room under the corridor under the eaves.

However, before Lin Jiangnian could knock on the door.

"Squeak."

The door opened.

A cold figure appeared at the door.

It was the paper kite.

Wearing a long white dress, a head of black hair like a waterfall.Under the black hair, there is a delicate face with no expression.

As if someone owed her a lot of money.

The long skirt is clean and clear, simple but elegant.Tall and slim, with a dusty temperament.I have to say that Zhiyuan doesn't look like a maid in any case in terms of appearance and temperament alone!

The only regret is probably her face.

It's cold and it stinks!
When she opened the door, she stared at Lin Jiangnian outside the door expressionlessly, and remained silent.

He didn't even have the superficial attitude he used to, and he was obviously not in a good mood.

Lin Jiangnian naturally understood the reason, his eyes fell on her fair and cold face, he narrowed his eyes, and played with it a little: "What? You didn't even say hello when you saw this son?"

Zhiyuan was silent and said nothing.

"Don't you invite me to come in and sit down?"

She still didn't speak.

The silent attitude has already explained everything.

"What? Still angry with my son?"

Lin Jiangnian looked her up and down, as if thinking of something, the corner of his mouth slightly raised: "Still angry that my son kissed you last night?"

Hearing this, Zhiyuan finally reacted.She lowered her eyes and said coldly, "No."

Cold, with a hint of indifference.

"really?"

Lin Jiangnian stared at her face and took a step forward.

However, Zhiyuan seemed wary, took a step back and glanced at him.

A trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, she still remembered what happened the night before.

She glanced at Lin Jiangnian in front of her with a little vigilance, and said silently, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"It's fine, I was thinking of coming to see you, okay?" Lin Jiangnian smiled.

The kite was silent.

"If your Highness is fine, you should study martial arts diligently and strive to achieve success as soon as possible..."

Zhiyuan spoke expressionlessly, her voice was not loud, but it seemed to be filled with an indescribable chill.And, a bit of indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away.

"My servant is not feeling well today, and I want to rest well...Your Highness, please go back."

Blameless refusal.

As soon as the voice fell, she closed the door.Leaving Lin Jiangnian outside the door alone, he was shut down.

Lin Jiangnian was stunned.

She... has a big temper?

With the identity of a maid, how dare she flirt with him, the prince's son?

A bit of a surprise!

In the past, even if Lin Jiangnian offended her, even if it was too much, Zhi Yuan didn't seem to take it too seriously.

At least on the surface, she still regards Lin Jiangnian as His Highness, whether it is his expression, attitude or behavior, he is well-behaved, neither humble nor overbearing, and can hardly find any faults.

But this time, it's completely different!
Not only did Zhi Yuan lose the superficial respect she had for Lin Jiangnian before, but she also dared to flirt with him, or even... shut him out?
It seems that the kiss she had the night before yesterday really violated her bottom line?

Give her a rush?

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian stood outside the door, his expression gradually brightened.

It's not like her to have such an intense emotional reaction after just kissing her cheek?
Could it be that this is also her weakness?
If the kiss last night was not just on the face but...even, if it wasn't just a kiss...

How would she react? !

Lin Jiangnian stood outside the door, looking at the closed door, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

interesting!
