son, don't mess around

Dark as ink.

"Sister Xu?"

When Xiaozhu was passing by the courtyard, he saw Xu Lan standing in a daze under the eaves, and suddenly became curious: "Sister Xu, what are you doing here?"

Under the eaves, Xu Lan's delicate face was full of frustration, and her voice was a little weak.

"Xiao Zhu."

"Ok?"

Xiaozhu blinked, seeming to notice that Sister Xu was not very interested?

"what's wrong?"

Xiaozhu stepped closer and asked with concern: "Sister Xu, what happened?"

It's late at night, why is Sister Xu here in a daze?
"Ugh……"

Xu Lan sighed quietly, her breath was depressed, and she seemed a little annoyed!
Xiaozhu is even stranger!

Sister Xu, what's going on?
Didn’t I hear from His Highness that Sister Xu’s family has been rescued and is safe? Why does Sister Xu still look unhappy?
"Sister Xu, what's going on?"

Xiaozhu couldn't help but asked worriedly.

Xu Lan has been living in Jiang Mansion these days and is very close to her.

Xiaozhu's title also changed from Miss Xu to Sister Xu. Xu Lan's outgoing and carefree personality, and Xiaozhu's gentle personality, made the relationship between the two develop rapidly.

"fine……"

Xu Lan waved her hands feebly, turned her head, and looked at the pretty Xiaozhu standing quietly under the eaves in front of her. A delicate pink face, wearing a light-colored chest-length skirt, was looking at her with concern and worry.

Not knowing what she was thinking of, Xu Lan's eyes slid down and landed on Xiao Zhu's part that was wrapped in a chest-length skirt, and Xiao He's sharp corners were exposed.

Subconsciously he murmured: "It's not that big..."

"Ok?"

Xiaozhu's eyes were confused.

What's not big?
What is Sister Xu Lan talking about?

Xiaozhu followed the direction of Sister Xu Lan's gaze and looked down.

Then...

As if he understood something, a blush appeared on Xiaozhu's fair and tender face. She subconsciously wanted to cover it up and said shyly: "Sister Xu, you...why do you look at me like this?"

Being stared at by Sister Xu Lan like this, the thin-skinned Xiaozhu couldn't stand it.

Sister Xu Lan is fine, why are you peeking at her breasts?
It’s not like Sister Xu Lan doesn’t have...

With random thoughts in his mind, Xiaozhu quietly glanced at Sister Xu Lan.

Ok……

You seem to be slightly better? !

At this moment, Xiaozhu's mood was complicated, and he suddenly began to sympathize with Sister Xu Lan.

"Sister Xu..."

Xiaozhu hesitated, not knowing whether to comfort him or not.

"Ok?"

"that……"

Xiaozhu thought for a while, and then comforted in a low voice: "Actually, Sister Xu, you don't have to worry too much..."

"Also, there is still room for growth..."

Xu Lan: "..."

As expected of a master and servant, the words coming out of his mouth were surprisingly consistent.

I couldn't help but want to complain, but when the words came to my lips, they turned into: "Really?"

"real!"

Xiaozhu nodded his head, his face slightly rosy, and whispered: "Xiaozhu used to be... about the same age as Sister Xu..."

Xu Lan was startled and her eyes fell on Xiaozhu again. After staring at it carefully for a moment, and thinking about it again, it seems...that it is indeed the case?

When she was still in Prince Lin's Mansion more than half a year ago, Xiaozhu was indeed a weak and delicate maid.

Everywhere is small!

Looks tender and tender.

at the moment……

The petite maid seemed to have grown up a lot, matured a lot, and developed a lot.

Xu Lan looked at her with complicated eyes, as if she had indeed... grown up a lot?

The little maid who was ordinary at the beginning now looks indeed plump and round...

"How did you do it?"

Xu Lan couldn't help but speak, a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes.

If that's the case, didn't that guy lie to her?
"Well..."

Xiaozhu's face was slightly red, and his eyes were a little shy. But then he thought of something, and with a quick turn of his eyes, he leaned into Xu Lan's ear and whispered something.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Lan's delicate face turned visibly red.

"Wha, what?!"

"massage……?!!"

Xu Lan seemed to be frightened and stimulated, her face turned red and her tone became a little stuttered.

Then, she said angrily: "How, how is it possible...you, are you lying to me?"

"how come?"

Xiaozhu said seriously: "Everything I said is true!"

"Yes, but..."

Xu Lan stammered and felt flustered. Xiaozhu's words made it difficult for her to accept them for a moment.

She doesn't quite believe it!

I very much doubt that Xiaozhu is deceiving her!

But Xiaozhu's eyes were clear, and he didn't look like he was lying.

Xu Lan was silent again.

it is true?

But, but...

When Xu Lan thought of that scene, she couldn't suppress the shame in her heart.

"Sister Xu..."

Seeing Sister Xu Lan's blushing face with a tangled and complicated expression, Xiaozhu sighed softly: "Sister Xu, can I ask you a question?"

"Ok?"

Xu Lan looked at her subconsciously.

Then Xiao Zhuwu's eyes rolled: "You like my Highness, don't you?"

As soon as these words came out, the blush that had not dissipated on Xu Lan's face reappeared again.

"me……"

"How could I possibly like him?!"

Xu Lan denied it subconsciously.

"really?"

Xiaozhu didn't believe it. She stared at Sister Xu's shy eyes and said seriously: "Sister Xu, you can deceive others, but you can't deceive me..."

Xiaozhu said with determination: "You must like my Highness!"

"you……"

Xu Lan's face was hot and she was very shy. When she heard Xiaozhu's words, she was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but said: "How do you know?"

"Because you can't hide your love for someone!"

Xiaozhu said eloquently: "I can see it from Sister Xu's eyes!"

Xu Lan was slightly startled.

In the eyes?
Is there love in her eyes?

Is it that obvious?

Xu Lan's eyes were dazed, "In my eyes?"

"Have it?"

"Have!"

Xiaozhu nodded seriously: "Sister Xu's eyes are full of Your Highness!"

As the closest maid to His Highness, how could Xiaozhu not see what Xu Lan meant to His Highness?
After all, Xiaozhu is no longer the innocent little maid she used to be!
During the more than half a year since he entered the capital with His Highness, Xiaozhu not only learned many experiences and postures from His Highness that he had never seen before. In addition to increasing her knowledge and gaining rich practical experience, she also gradually matured as she was ignorant in the past.

I also seem to understand things about the relationship between men and women! Although I don't fully understand it, I can still see something.

For example, Xiaozhu can discern who is interested in His Highness!
For example, Sister Liuye from last time!

Although Sister Liuye seemed to dislike His Highness, in fact, as a bystander, Xiaozhu could see clearly... Sister Liuye must like His Highness!
Otherwise, she would not have allowed His Highness to bully her...

Of course, there is also the sister Xu Lan in front of me. Xiaozhu is also sure that Sister Xu Lan definitely likes His Highness.

When she was still in Prince Lin's Mansion, this sister Xu always liked to go to Prince Lin's Mansion. She would come to see His Highness when she had nothing to do, and she would stay all day long!

After arriving in the capital, this sister Xu was still like this. Whenever she was free, she could be seen coming to the Jiang Mansion.

Moreover, every time Sister Xu was with His Highness, Xiaozhu would quietly observe and inquire.

...Not just Sister Xu Lan, Xiaozhu would secretly note down the appearance of every beautiful woman who appeared around His Highness, and then observe them secretly.

After all, he might become her mistress in the future!

Xu Lan froze in place and blinked.

That guy is all she has in her eyes?
How is that possible?

Yes, is it that obvious?
Xu Lan seemed to think of something, and her heart moved: "Xiao Zhu?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"you say……"

Xu Lan said anxiously: "Your Highness..."

"Can he see it?"

Xiaozhu couldn't help but sigh, and said with an old-fashioned look on his face: "Sister Xu, even I can see it, do you think His Highness can't see it?"

"what?"

Xu Lan's face turned red: "You mean...he, he also saw it?!"

"Have you known it for a long time?!"

"should be."

Xiaozhu thought for a while and nodded.

His Highness is so smart that even she can see it. How could His Highness not discover it?
After all, Sister Xu Lan has already made it obvious!

"Yes, but..."

Xu Lan quickly remembered something again: "He, since he saw it...why didn't, didn't..."

She suddenly looked a little disappointed.

That guy has already seen his own thoughts?

But he saw it, why didn't he show it?
Why is there no response?

Is it...

Xu Lan began to worry about gains and losses.

"Well..."

Seeing Sister Xu Lan's disappointed look, Xiaozhu blinked and realized that he might have done something wrong. He quickly whispered to make amends: "Actually, there is also a possibility... maybe His Highness doesn't know about it yet?"

"After all, Sister Xu Lan, you have never expressed your feelings to His Highness. Maybe His Highness just regards Sister Xu Lan as a very good friend and has not thought about it in this regard!"

"Friend, friend?"

"Yes!"

Xiaozhu nodded and said: "I'm not sure, my Highness regards you as a friend, Sister Xu, for the time being, but he just doesn't think about it that much..."

Hearing this, Xu Lan was in a daze.

What about friends?
It seems that this is possible?
Didn't that guy always say he considered her his buddy?
Brother, brother...

As if thinking of something, Xu Lan subconsciously lowered his head and glanced...his face was slightly red, with a hint of anger.

Yeah, could that be the reason?
but……

Although it is indeed a little too small, it is not impossible... He is also too insulting!

Xu Lan was ashamed and angry.

Xiaozhu looked at Sister Xu Lan's hesitant look and continued to comfort her in a low voice: "Sister Xu, don't worry too much, you will really grow up..."

"I heard His Highness say before that in addition to craftsmanship and technology... there seems to be some medicine that can help growth..."

"How about I go back and ask His Highness for you?"

"..."

While Xiaozhu was still persevering in imparting unreliable blind knowledge to Xu Lan.

The front hall of Jiang Mansion, in the main courtyard.

Lin Qingqing stood under the eaves, reporting what happened in Beijing tonight.

"Gao Boyan, the Minister of Civil Service, was killed in his own manor after escaping from prison with his son..."

"The great hatred of the Zhou family has been avenged. Zhou Yao handed over a letter of surrender to His Highness, willing to follow His Highness in the future..."

"After the Gao family escaped from prison, many people were alarmed. The imperial court will definitely conduct a strict investigation, and I'm afraid it will be traced to the Zhou family. Does Your Highness want to..."

Gao Boyan and his son escaped from prison late at night, but in the end they could not escape the fate of death!

From beginning to end, this was a carefully planned game. Lin Jiangnian was the one who planned it, but he was not involved from beginning to end. He only needs to stir up the trouble, and then someone will naturally cooperate with him to finish the drama!
From beginning to end, Lin Jiangnian stayed out of the incident.

"No need!"

Lin Jiang young shook his head: "Since it is a matter of the Zhou family, Zhou Yao knows what to do!"

At this point, he paused: "If he can't handle it, it will be their own lives!"

Lin Jiangnian always respects individual destiny!
"Yes."

Lin Qingqing lowered her eyes.

The Gao family's prison escape tonight was a set-up, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was Gao Boyan who was unwilling to sit back and wait for death and teamed up with outsiders to escape. Under the pursuit of Mitiansi, he refused to surrender and was eventually beheaded by Mitiansi on the spot...

The incident itself is full of loopholes, but it is almost impossible to find out the truth! The key thing is that not many people care about the truth!
Lin Qingqing seemed to have thought of something, but stopped talking.

"What's the matter? Tell me?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and asked.

Lin Qingqing hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "In tonight's matter with the Gao family, Chief Chen of the Mitian Division was also involved..."

Lin Qingqing informed Lin Jiangnian of the discovered information in detail.

"Although he is helping Your Highness this time, but..."

Lin Qingqing was always a little uneasy in her heart and frowned slightly: "Your Highness, can you really trust this person completely?"

"No."

Lin Jiangnian spoke.

Lin Qingqing's eyes were solemn, mixed with worry.

"Your Highness, if he..."

"He will not."

Lin Jiangqing shook his head lightly, interrupting Lin Qingqing's worries.

From the beginning, Lin Jiangnian knew very well that Chen Changqing could not be completely trusted!

He can't be completely his own person!
When he first met Chen Changqing, Lin Jiangnian knew that this man was an extremely principled and ideal person! He was unwilling to succumb to Mi Tiansi's darkness and became a puppet under the orders of others.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Jiangnian gave him a chance! Help him clear the obstacles in Mitiansi, let him succeed and gain power, and reach the sky in one step!
But it is also because of principles and ideals. Chen Changqing will not become a chess piece that Lin Jiangnian can use at will in Mitiansi!

If this is true, then there will be no difference between Lin Jiangnian and the Mitiansi Dharma protectors who oppressed him before!

During this period of time, the things Chen Changqing secretly did for Lin Jiangnian were repaying his kindness and repaying Lin Jiangnian's kindness! But this does not mean that he will always do things for Lin Jiangnian unconditionally!
He is a man with ideals and justice in his heart!

To become the leader of Mitiansi with real power, there are still more things waiting for him to do.

However, Lin Jiangnian is not worried that Chen Changqing will rebel!
A leader of Mitiansi who has justice in his heart and can enforce the law impartially. Many times, it is often more beneficial to Lin Jiangnian!
……

After listening to Lin Qingqing's report, Lin Jiangnian returned to the inner courtyard, but Xu Lan was nowhere to be seen.

I learned from the maid in the courtyard that Xu Lan did not go back tonight and went to Xiaozhu's room.

Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised when he learned the news.

But then it dawned on me.

That's right, Xu Lan and Xiaozhu are similar in age, and their personalities are quite compatible.

Although Miss Xu has many problems, she does not have the domineering and condescending attitude of Miss Xu. It is not surprising that she can get along well with Xiaozhu!

In addition, Xu Lan was staying in Jiang Mansion these days, and it was Xiaozhu who was comforting, caring and comforting her. After this back and forth, the relationship between the two naturally goes without saying.

The Xu family was acquitted, and the Xu family was also unblocked!

But it seems that Miss Xu doesn't plan to go back?
Lin Jiangnian came to the next room. As soon as he approached the door of the room under the eaves, he heard faint sounds of discussion coming from the lighted room not far away.

"Is this really possible?"

In the room, Xu Lan's slightly trembling and stuttering voice sounded, as if she was extremely nervous.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaozhu's slightly excited tone came.

"It will definitely work... Your Highness did this to me before..."

"Yes, but..."

Xu Lan's voice seemed to be trembling even more: "Okay, what a strange feeling..."

"Sister Xu, just be patient and you'll be fine soon..."

"Hmm~"

"..."

Outside the room door, Lin Jiangnian listened to the strange conversations coming from the room, looking strange and suspicious.

What are they doing in the room?
This conversation is not quite right!

Are they... doing something weird?
Especially Xiaozhu's tone, why is it so similar to when Lin Jiangnian bullies her... This little maid, is she now learning and applying it to Xu Lan?
Lin Jiangnian became more and more curious, what were the two of them doing in the room?
It can't really be...

With this in mind, Lin Jiangnian walked quietly to the door of the room.

The door was closed tightly, and Lin Jiangnian tried to push it.

Not moving at all!

The doors and windows are locked!

This time, Lin Jiangnian became even more suspicious!
The doors and windows were locked so tightly. What kind of shameful things were the two of them doing?

Lin Jiangnian listened carefully for a while. Except for Xu Lan's slightly unnatural voice occasionally coming from the room, there was no other sound.

I hesitated to knock on the door, but after thinking about it, I finally gave up!

Knocking on the door is like alerting the enemy, and probably nothing will come out! It would be better to wait until Xu Lan is gone tomorrow and he can torture Xiaozhu alone.

The little maid has no secrets in front of him!
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian turned around and left, coming to the other side of the roof.

Paper Kite's room.

Open the door and walk in.

The room was dimly lit, shrouded in the ambiguity of the night. Behind the screen, Zhiyuan sat sideways on the bed, reading with her eyes down.

Her hair was scattered, a strand of blue silk covered her delicate and flawless face, and she was wrapped in plain white pajamas. Slightly thin, her whole person has a delicate temperament and an indescribable coldness.

Seeing Lin Jiangnian walking in, Zhiyuan raised her eyes slightly and looked at him.

"why are not you sleeping?"

Lin Jiangnian approached, chuckled and spoke.

Zhiyuan said nothing, nodded slightly, and lowered his eyes again.

"Get some rest early."

Lin Jiangnian took the book from her hand and closed it!

Zhiyuan didn't say anything, but looked at him slightly dissatisfied. Still silent, he lay down with his clothes on and got into the quilt.

Then he subconsciously moved into the bed, slightly vacating half of the bed. Turning around, Lin Jiangnian was left with a delicate back of his head and a head of thick black hair.

When Lin Jiangnian saw this, he took off his clothes easily and got into the quilt. His hands pulled her into his arms from behind.

One hand gently hugged the slender and soft waist, and the other hand habitually landed on the place where it should fall.

"You, be honest..."

Under the quilt, Zhi Yuan's slightly shy and cold voice came from behind. At the same time, a bare hand stretched out and opened Lin Jiangnian's hand.

Lin Jiangnian didn't resist, and allowed Zhiyuan to move his hand away, seeming to breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, he spoke in a slightly warning tone.

"go to bed!"

"Okay!" Lin Jiangnian agreed.

then……

After a while, without realizing it, the hand returned to its rightful place.

"you……"

Zhiyuan quickly noticed it again, and she said angrily: "Can you be more honest!"

"can."

"Then why don't you take it away quickly?"

"It's its own choice and I have no control over it."

"..."

Listening to Lin Jiangnian's "shameless" words, Zhiyuan became furious and breathed slightly.

Lin Jiangnian also felt the trembling touch.

While feeling it carefully, he leaned close to Zhiyuan's ear, sighed softly, and said with some helplessness: "Some things are actually beyond my control..."

"If I don't hold something while sleeping, I won't sleep well."

Zhiyuan's face turned slightly red with embarrassment, she bit her lower lip lightly, and her breathing quickened: "You, you..."

"Then, how do I sleep?"

Lin Jiangnian blinked: "You can't sleep?"

"What do you think?!"

Zhiyuan stared at him in shame.

How could she sleep with him like this?

"It seems you're not sleepy?"

Lin Jiangnian seemed to realize something, his eyes flickered slightly.

Zhiyuan immediately noticed something and immediately became vigilant: "You want to do it... um..."

Before she could say the warning, she was blocked again.

Soon all that was left in response was 'Uh huh'!
After a while, even the sound of 'Uh-huh' gradually disappeared.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became ambiguous.

Zhiyuan struggled slightly at the beginning, but as time went by, the intensity of the struggle gradually became smaller.

Compared to struggling for a long time every time before, the struggle now is more like...rejection but welcome.

Perhaps, she also realized that struggling was of no use!

The harder someone struggles every time, the more excited someone seems to be!

In the end, it was she who suffered.

Ever since, I have adopted the attitude of life that since I can't resist, I'll just screw it up!

Give up the struggle!
Zhiyuan closed her eyes tightly, her delicate, cool and white face flushed with blush, and her red lips were moist.

"Turn out, turn off the lights..."

Lin Jiangnian held the girl's body in his arms, which was gradually weakening and becoming boneless. He panted heavily and breathed softly: "Today... we won't turn off the lights, right?"

"No, it can't be done..." Zhiyuan seemed to be very nervous and her tone was serious.

"Tonight, I want to watch you!"

"No, no way!!"

Zhiyuan's tone became even more embarrassed, and she struggled to bury her head in the quilt, but was stopped by Lin Jiangnian.

"you……"

Zhiyuan's face became even redder.

Just when she was about to feel ashamed, Lin Jiangnian approached the girl's ear again and spoke softly.

"It's okay to turn off the lights, but... you have to agree to one condition!"

Zhiyuan was very angry. He, he was actually bargaining with her at this time?

Threaten her? !

Zhiyuan opened her beautiful eyes, her eyes filled with emotion. Those cold eyes that used to be cold were now glaring at him with a hint of shame and anger.

But Lin Jiangnian was not afraid at all, staring at the delicate appearance of the girl in front of him, as well as the pure and charming look that wanted to resist but still welcomed her.

His heart became more and more confused, he leaned close to the girl's ear and spoke softly. Immediately, Zhiyuan's pretty face turned red and her eyes were filled with shame.

"no, do not want!"

"You, you dare?!"

"I, I don't want..."

"...I, I will bite you..."

"..."

"..."

early morning.

Lin Jiangnian was lying on the bed, with a proud smile on his face, half-squinting his eyes, and quietly thinking about it.

Very peaceful time!

As the old saying goes!
For some things, if there is a first time, there will be a second time, and then there will be countless times!

The old saying is true!

Although Zhiyuan tried her best to resist last night, she even bit someone in desperation!

He even threatened Lin Jiangnian to bite him... and kill him!
But in the end, with Lin Jiangnian's comfort and request.

Zhiyuan still gave in!
The consequence is that Zhiyuan is angry again!
If nothing else, I'm afraid he won't look at him well in the next few days.

Lin Jiangnian was already used to this!
His behavior last night was indeed excessive, and it was reasonable for Zhiyuan to be angry.

But it doesn’t matter, go back and coax you for two days! Zhiyuan has soft ears and a personality that is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, so it is not difficult to coax her! Say some kind words, comfort and reassure, and by the way, promise that this will never happen again next time, that's about it!

As for next time...

How dare you!

After lying quietly on the bed for a while, Lin Jiangnian got up. Wait until Xiaozhu comes in and help him change clothes and wash up.

Xiaozhu's face flushed, obviously noticing the changes in the room.

I also guessed what happened last night!

"Xiao Zhu."

Lin Jiangnian looked down at Xiaozhu, who was helping him arrange his clothes, and suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

Xiaozhu subconsciously raised his head and looked into His Highness's eyes.

Then, his face turned redder...

"last night……"

Lin Jiangnian was about to speak when he saw Xiaozhu shaking his head and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't tell anyone... and I won't tell Sister Xu either!?"

"Ok?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her suspiciously, what did he say?

What won't be told?

As if realizing something, Lin Jiangnian glanced at the room and immediately squinted: "Wait, you told Xu Lan?"

"No, no..."

Xiaozhu realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly covered his mouth, his eyes panicked: "No, no... Xiaozhu didn't say anything!"

"Really?"

Facing His Highness's questioning gaze, Xiaozhu quickly became guilty, lowered his head, and spoke cautiously: "Just, just say...a little, just a little!"

"Just a little bit?!"

"Really, really!"

Xiaozhu panicked and spoke. It was a serious crime to talk about His Highness's affairs, especially to talk about His Highness's private matters. Even though she was favored by His Highness, she still knew the seriousness of the matter.

"Xiaozhu is wrong, Xiaozhu won't dare to do it next time..."

Xiaozhu spoke pitifully.

He wanted to teach this little maid a lesson, but when he saw Xiaozhu's pitiful look, Lin Jiangnian was a little amused: "Now do you know how to pretend to be pitiful?"

"Why didn't you think of this when you casually talked about your Highness's affairs?"

"Slave, I know I was wrong..."

Xiaozhu lowered his head and said pitifully: "Slave, just, just... I told Sister Xu a little bit!"

"What a wonderful sister Xu. When did your relationship with Xu Lan become so good?"

"Just, it's pretty good..." Xiaozhu whispered.

"Then let me ask you."

Lin Jiangnian remembered what happened last night and stared at her with squinted eyes: "What were you and Xu Lan doing in the room last night?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiaozhu's eyes suddenly widened and he said in panic: "Your Highness, you, how do you know?!"

"What do you say?"

"Your Highness, are you eavesdropping?!"

Lin Jiangnian reached out and tapped her head: "Do I still need to eavesdrop?"

"Tell me, what were you doing sneaking around in the room last night?"

"me……"

Xiaozhu panicked.

She didn't expect His Highness to actually know what happened between her and Sister Xu Lan in the room last night. Her face turned red and she said, "Me, Sister Xu and I...no, nothing?"

"Not honest, huh?"

Lin Jiangnian immediately narrowed his eyes: "Do you want to be taught a lesson again?"

Upon hearing this, Xiaozhu reached behind him to cover his butt like a conditioned reflex, and took two steps back. His head shook like a rattle: "No, no, no... Xiaozhu doesn't want to be taught a lesson."

"Then why don't you tell me the truth quickly?!"

Facing His Highness's intense questioning, Xiaozhu grimaced. Silently thinking: Sister Xu Lan, I'm sorry, Xiaozhu is going to betray you... Xiaozhu didn't mean it!
It's really... His Highness is too bullying!

Xiaozhu felt pitiful, and then told Lin Jiangnian the whole story of yesterday.

After Lin Jiangnian finished listening, his eyes were stunned and a little mysterious.

After a while, he finally said: "You mean, you gave Xu Lan a massage in the room last night?!"

"Ah."

"Do you know how to massage?"

"No, it won't..."

Lin Jiangnian was happy: "Then you will give her a massage?"

Xiaozhu answered honestly: "I, I saw His Highness before, and it was the same..."

Xiaozhu said and made a gesture on his chest.

Lin Jiangnian was silent.

After a while, some people couldn't help laughing and wanted to laugh for no reason.

Of the two of them, one really dares to say it and the other dares to believe it!

One said that massage can help you grow, and the other really believed it and put it into practice...

"You said it and she believed it?"

"Yes!"

Xiaozhu nodded his head.

"She didn't realize you were lying to her?"

"cheat?"

Xiaozhu was confused: "What lie? Isn't this what you taught me, Your Highness?"

"Xiaozhu didn't lie to Sister Xu!"

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

He almost forgot that Xiaozhuhui's skills were basically all taught by him. At this moment, Lin Jiangnian suddenly realized that what he said yesterday was a bit too harsh on Miss Xu!

Did this make Miss Xu doubt herself and start to feel inferior? Did you even believe Xiaozhu’s lies, saying that massage can help you grow up?

...can’t wait to practice?
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian felt a little uneasy. I was wondering whether I should wait to find Xu Lan and persuade her. In fact, there is no need to deliberately pursue such a big thing...

Small ones are actually very cute? !

……

"Your Highness..."

Xiaozhu observed His Highness's expression and reaction, and cautiously said tentatively: "Actually, Sister Xu likes you, Your Highness."

Hearing this, Lin Jiangnian looked at Xiaozhu: "Who told you? Her?"

"no!"

Xiaozhu shook his head: "I saw it myself!"

"How did you tell?"

"Just, you can see it..."

Xiaozhu thought for a while and said, "Sister Xu looks at you very differently, and, and..."

It's hard for Xiaozhu to describe it, but he is very determined in his heart.

Sister Xu Lan likes His Highness!

That's true!

Hearing this, Lin Jiangnian didn't change his mood much. He chuckled and touched Xiaozhu's head again: "That's right. Your Highness is so outstanding. Isn't it normal for someone to like you?"

"What about you, Your Highness?"

Xiaozhu asked again: "Your Highness, do you like Sister Xu?"

"how?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her: "Xu Lan asked you to test me?"

"no no!"

Xiaozhu shook his head: "This is what I want to ask."

"this problem……"

Lin Jiangnian thought for a while and shook his head: "It's hard to say."

"Hard to say?"

Xiaozhu was confused: "What do you mean it's hard to say?"

"It's just hard to say."

Lin Jiang young sighed.

Does he like Xu Lan?

It’s really out of the question at the moment.

At present, Lin Jiangnian doesn't have much interest in Miss Xu beyond the scope of friends. Perhaps it was the first impression that preoccupied Lin Jiangnian. Every time he saw Xu Lan, he would automatically put her in his friend's impression!

Take the place of Xu Lan, a hot-tempered, delicate-looking young man with red lips and white teeth, dressed in men's clothing like a boy's girl!

Who would have evil thoughts about his brothers?
If you don’t have evil thoughts, naturally you can’t talk about liking it!
As we all know, the friendship between men and women always begins with evil thoughts.

Typical representatives are Lin Jiangnian and Zhao Xi!
The two of them started having evil thoughts about each other. Lin Jiangnian coveted her slender and fair legs, and Zhao Xi missed his handsome and delicate appearance... Then it was natural and everything went smoothly!

But if you don't like her... let alone Lin Jiangnian, he has a good impression of Miss Xu. He quite likes this little girl's character... Of course, this kind of liking is different from liking her!

Otherwise, Lin Jiangnian would not go to such great lengths to save the Xu family!

All this is for Xu Lan's sake.

Xiaozhu, on the other hand, had a puzzled look on his face. If he likes it, he just likes it, and if he doesn't like it, he just doesn't like it.

Why is it so hard to say?
what do you mean?

"You'll know later!"

Lin Jiangnian touched Xiaozhu's head.

Lin Jiangnian had long realized that Xu Lan liked him.

Zhiyuan reminded him before, but Lin Jiangnian didn't take it to heart at that time. But as Xiaozhu suddenly mentioned it again today, Lin Jiangnian had to start paying attention!
Even Xiaozhu can tell that it seems that Miss Xu's covetousness towards him is already known to everyone, right?
If this matter is not handled well, it will easily hurt this calm and carefree girl!
Lin Jiangnian thought about it and had to have a good chat with Xu Lan sometime.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the hospital.

"Your Highness!"

Lin Qingqing's figure appeared outside the hospital.

"What's the matter?"

"Someone sent a letter and asked me to deliver it to His Highness!"

Lin Qingqing stepped forward quickly and handed the letter to Lin Jiangnian.

Lin Jiangnian took the letter without leaving any mark on it. Like an anonymous letter. After opening the letter, Lin Jiangnian's eyes narrowed when he saw the contents.

Lin Qingqing noticed His Highness's reaction: "Your Highness, what's wrong?!"

"I don't know."

Lin Jiangnian looked slightly solemn, thinking about something.

Then he threw the letter in his hand to Lin Qingqing. Lin Qingqing took the letter, glanced at the content on the letter, and was suddenly surprised.

"what?!"

"Chen Zhao suddenly sent several close masters from Mi Tiansi to secretly enter the palace last night?"

"What does he want to do?!"

Lin Qingqing immediately realized who wrote this letter...Chen Changqing!

Did he send information to Lin Jiangnian? !

According to the intelligence, Chen Zhao secretly mobilized several close masters from Mitian Division to enter the palace in the middle of the night last night. It seems that something big has happened!
This thing doesn’t look like much at first glance!
Chen Zhao is the actual controller behind Mitiansi, and the Mitiansi under him have the responsibility and right to report to the palace!
However, since this letter was sent by Chen Changqing, the matter is definitely not that simple.

"Why is Chen Zhao suddenly anxious to summon his confidants into the palace? Did something happen in the palace?"

Lin Qingqing looked solemn and spoke analytically.

Lin Jiangnian said nothing, thinking about something.

Since Chen Changqing sent this letter, it was certainly not an unintentional move. He was specifically reminding Lin Jiangnian to be careful.

Since the four great protectors of Mitiansi were eradicated by Lin Jiangnian, Chen Changqing paid the price and successfully won Chen Zhao's trust. Although Chen Zhao did not completely trust him, as the leader, Chen Changqing could still hear a lot of troubles in Mitiansi at the first time!
"Suddenly summoning experts into the palace, it's probably because something happened in the palace..."

Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes and murmured: "I'm afraid it has something to do with that emperor!"

There was a vague guess in his mind.

After all, Chen Zhao was just a eunuch. If he summoned masters into the palace, he would inevitably be able to avoid the emperor's eyes and ears.

So……

Lin Qingqing suddenly realized something, and her face changed slightly: "Your Highness, do you mean that the emperor may have..."

Lin Qingqing guessed a certain possibility!
All signs seem to be pointing in this direction...

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Lin Jiangnian nodded.

He had always suspected that the emperor who was in seclusion either had a physical problem or had... died!

Now, it makes him even more guessing!

If the emperor really dies, then the world may really be in chaos!

"Send someone to check quickly and see the movements of the city defense troops in the capital and the troops stationed outside the capital, as well as the movements in the palace... keep an eye on it!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Lin Qingqing hurriedly turned around and left.

Lin Jiangnian stood under the eaves, thinking about the current situation. Chen Changqing's letter was a wake-up call for him, but at the same time, Lin Jiangnian also smelled something unusual in it.

If the emperor really died... why did Chen Zhao summon the masters of Mitiansi to secretly enter the palace?
Where is the prince?
I'm afraid he was also the first to know, right?

So……

Just as Lin Jiangnian was thinking, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door again, and a maid appeared outside the courtyard.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

"how?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the flustered maid: "What happened?"

"Your Highness, yes, someone is looking for you!"

The maid blushed and panted, out of breath. She had obviously run all the way here.

He looked nervous and excited, as if something big had happened!
"Chang, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is here..."

"Tell me, I want to see you!"
