The crown prince's favorite girl, she found another good match

Chapter 98
Xia Lin said respectfully, "Yes."

He quickly took a few people down, and Zhou Jinan didn't take this little episode to heart. He just went to lie down at Lin Mansion at night. It was a piece of cake for him.

He took an inch and said: "I will have lunch with you later."

When Zhao Yigang was about to say no, Li Baojia, who was next to him, had already taken a step ahead of him and said, "Then let's go in together."

After all, he has to work at night, so now he can't agree to his small request, which is just for a meal.

So Zhou Jinan went in with them smoothly. It was already dinner time, and the greenery had already spread out, waiting for them to go back.

When Zhou Jinan arrived inside, he sat down calmly. Zhao Yi rarely stabbed him and sat down quietly.

Li Baojia looked at this rare harmonious scene and nodded with satisfaction.

During the meal, Zhou Jinan was still lively and diligently picked up food for Li Baojia. He picked up a chopstick of yellow eel soup, and Li Baojia couldn't help but frown.

Lu Yi has just arrived, and I don’t know her preferences. She dislikes eels the most because she always thinks they look scary and look like snakes.So I couldn't say anything.

Seeing the spoonful of eels getting closer, Li Baojia froze in place, but Zhao Yi stopped her when he was almost in her bowl: "She doesn't like eels."

Zhou Jinan was stunned: "Don't eat eel?"

He glanced at Li Baojia and saw that she was indeed frowning with a slightly scared expression. He immediately put the eel back and pulled the plate further away: "Don't be afraid, Baojia, just don't look at it."

Then he picked up the hibiscus shrimp next to him: "Then you eat this."

A prawn fell into Li Baojia's bowl, and Li Baojia watched it pick at it for a long time. Zhao Yi immediately peeled it for her, and then cleaned his hands before continuing to eat.

Li Baojia then ate the white and tender shrimp meat. Zhou Jinan next to him felt that he was being outdone by Zhao Yi.

He was picking up his rice gloomily, but Li Baojia took the initiative to get him some food before he felt better.

The greenery next to it is a bit sighing.

In the boudoir dream of thousands of noble girls in the capital, who would have thought that they would gather together to be jealous, vying to serve a little girl for dinner.

No one would believe this.

midnight.

Zhou Jinan wore night clothes, jumped over the wall of Lin Mansion neatly, and landed firmly on the ground.

Grass clippings were flying around his feet, curling up on his boots, and the few people guarding the door were busy taking naps, and no one paid attention to him.

Who would have thought that his noble son would secretly climb over the walls of other people's houses in the middle of the night.

I don't know what's going on in this Lin Mansion. The security is much tighter than that of ordinary aristocratic families. There are actually more than a dozen people guarding outside this small courtyard.

He entered the small courtyard, groped all the way to find the dormitory that Li Baojia had told him about during the day, and went in through the window.

As the incense in the room faded at night, the stench became more obvious, and even Zhou Jinan, who had always been thick and tall, could smell it.

He called tentatively: "Lin Fengli?"

During the day, Li Baojia did not explain to him that Lin Fengli was probably killed. After all, she still held some hope that he was just injured and was being held somewhere.

The room was empty and silent, with only the occasional sound of wind blowing and shaking the curtains beside the bed, making the room even more gloomy with only the moonlight shining in it.

He followed the smell and walked straight to the bed. This bed was an old-fashioned octagonal bed made of celestial wood. The hem was quite high, the bed was heavy, and some yarn fell from the edge of the bed.

This person...wouldn't be under the bed, would he?

Zhou Jinan slowly squatted down and suddenly lifted the cloth beside the bed. There was nothing underneath.

Not under the bed?
He looked around the room again under the hazy moonlight and found that there were not many things around, and there were not many places to hide people, so he looked back at the bed.

this bed...

Only then did he notice that this bed was very different from ordinary beds. The bed of this bed was very thick, and there seemed to be space sandwiched in the middle.

Many years ago, many wealthy families would buy such a bed to place some valuables. But later, too many people bought it, and thieves would search the place almost immediately when they came in, so the number of people buying it gradually disappeared.

He moved all the quilt and other things on the bed, and the smell became even stronger. He carefully observed the bed board for a while under the moonlight, and immediately found a mark of warping.

He pressed it with his hands and pulled it open, and sure enough he saw a corner of a robe inside.

With a few brushes, he completely removed several wooden boards, revealing the full face of the people inside.

Seeing that face, even Zhou Jinan was shocked. Large parts of his face were covered with burn marks. His nose was almost gone. It was glued together by the scars and only two small holes were left. His face was pale. His eyes were closed tightly, and traces of corpse stains could be seen faintly on his hands and forehead.

It's already cool enough, and the weather is getting hot again, so some unpleasant smell has spread.

He won't come next time on this errand no matter what...

Zhou Jinan took a quilt from the bed, wrapped him up, and carried him out. Along the way, his feet seemed to be on a hot wheel, and he was in a hurry.

courtyard.

Li Baojia and Zhao Yi were waiting at the door of the study. Zhao Yi took a book and read it quietly. Li Baojia drank sour plum soup while looking at the door.

The sour plum soup was made by Lv Yi. It was ice cold and very suitable for the current weather. She slurped it happily.

After drinking, she held the small bowl and looked at Lu Yi longingly. Lu Yi took it and wanted to serve her another bowl. Zhao Yi said softly: "No more. It's cold at night. Do you want to take medicine tomorrow?"

Li Baojia puffed up his face and said nothing, Zhao Yi just pretended not to see it, Lu Yi smiled and took the bowl back.

Sometimes she had the illusion that His Highness and the young lady had been together for a long time. His Highness knew what the young lady was doing without even looking at her, and he knew her own body better than the young lady herself.

At this time, Zhou Jinan also came back. He put the body on his shoulders on the ground and said, "You can see for yourselves, I'm going to take a shower."

He ran back like the wind.

Li Baojia blinked and almost didn't react. She didn't react until she saw Lin Fengli wrapped in a quilt at the door of the study.

A gust of wind blew over, and she immediately smelled the smell again. Zhao Yi had people carry the body to the village before saying, "Don't come over here. Ask the widower to come over. I'll tell you the results after he examines the body."

Li Baojia nodded. It was useless for her to go there. She didn't know how to do an autopsy, so she might as well wait here for the results.

Lin Fengli was indeed killed as they expected, and he was still staying in the Lin family's yard.

At the moment, she couldn't figure out why Lin Fengli, who had clearly said she would never return to the Lin family, suddenly went back. That place was a memory he didn't want to touch again.

So who is it?
The one who asked him to go back.
