In the clear river water, everything is shadowy.

The assassin was about to take the dagger from Lin Jianyue's hand and kill Lin Jianyue, but he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

A figure swam in front of Lin Jianyue like a flying fish, grabbed Lin Jianyue's waist, and slowly disappeared into the river.

Another assassin was chasing after him, and he broke through the river. He first glanced at Lin Jianyue in his arms, and then carefully explored Lin Jianyue's neck.

Although the pulse on his neck was weak, it never stopped. It was at this moment that he lightly raised his eyelids and looked at the assassins who surrounded him, revealing a contemptuous smile.

I saw this person, holding Lin Jianyue's dagger in one hand, killing one by one, and killing two by two. His methods were sharp and straightforward, and he could harvest all lives with just a raise of his hand.

Soon, the lake surface returned to calm. The assassin who had looked fierce just now was now floating quietly on the lake surface. The originally clear lake surface was covered with red blood stains.

The visitor didn't even look at it. He lowered his eyes at Lin Jianyue who was unconscious in her arms. She saw her black hair hanging wetly behind her, her eyes closed tightly, her long eyelashes quiet and well-behaved, and her plump lips exuding a hint of light. The pink and white color makes people feel pity for them.

The moment Lin Jianyue woke up, she sat up instantly, and Li En's voice came from beside her: "Miss, don't move, you are still injured!"

Lin Jianyue glanced around her. It was her familiar boudoir. She had already put on clean clothes, and all the skin wounds on her body had been bandaged with medicine.

"Where is Princess Taihe?" Lin Jianyue asked immediately. She still remembered the moment before she fell into coma, thinking that she would definitely die this time, but she didn't expect that she was actually alive.

Li En helped Lin Jianyue sit down, and then said, "Princess Taihe is fine. She has been sent to the palace. Now the imperial doctor is there. Princess Taihe was very frightened when she heard that!"

Lin Jianyue was relieved after hearing that Taihe was fine. If something happened to Taihe and himself, not to mention that the Emperor of Dongshan would not let him go, even he would not be able to explain it to Xishu.

"Where is Tingzhou?" Lin Jianyue asked.

"Master Tingzhou is still kneeling outside!" Li En said.

Lin Jianyue frowned and said, "Let him come in!"

Soon, Tingzhou walked into the house. He didn't dare to look down and knelt in the house. He was still wearing the clothes from the daytime and there were blood stains on his body.

"This subordinate is not well protected, please punish me!" Tingzhou said with his head lowered.

"The incident happened suddenly and it's none of your business! What happened next? Did you bring someone to rescue me or someone else?" Lin Jianyue asked.

Seeing that Tingzhou still refused to get up, Chunli came over and helped Tingzhou up.

"My subordinates found the girl and Princess Taihe in the lower reaches of the river. At that time, girl, you were already unconscious, and Princess Taihe was crying beside you! I also asked people to go upstream to see, and all those assassins were killed. Yes! I thought you were the one who killed me!" Tingzhou reported back.

Lin Jianyue was shocked by these words. She remembered that before she fell into coma, there were still many assassins left. Being able to kill so many assassins in one breath showed that the person who saved her was very skilled in martial arts.

"It's not me!" Lin Jianyue's expression darkened. Although he was rescued, this vague feeling always makes people uneasy.

"Those assassins were almost all killed in one blow. My subordinates also asked Princess Taihe, but Princess Taihe said that she found you downstream of the river and no one took action!" Tingzhou looked serious.

Fortunately, someone came to rescue Lin Jianyue, otherwise Lin Jianyue would really be there this time. "Check! But don't make it public!" Lin Jianyue ordered. No matter what, the person behind her saved her, and she investigated everything for peace of mind.

Tingzhou nodded, and Lin Jianyue said to Chunli, "Go and ask the doctor to take a look at Tingzhou. Although your secret guards are strong, they are still made of flesh and blood, so you still need to pay more attention!"

"Thank you, girl!" Tingzhou nodded and let Chunli help him down. It can be seen that Tingzhou was actually seriously injured, but he was just holding back.

Watching Tingzhou leave, Li En stepped forward and said, "Girl, when you were unconscious, the Crown Prince came several times and was just called into the palace!"

Lin Jianyue nodded, and Li Encai continued, "Second Young Master has also come many times, and even people from the General's Mansion have come. However, Second Young Master Cheng has not returned to the city yet, and the servants have already told people to hide this matter!"

"You did a good job! Just keep this matter a secret and don't need to alarm everyone!" Lin Jianyue praised that she was safe now and didn't want to worry those who cared about her.

Li En nodded. At this time, the maid came in with the medicine. Li En took it and tested the temperature before handing it to Lin Jianyue. Seeing Lin Jianyue drink the medicine in one gulp, Li En still felt scared.

"This girl is blessed with great fortune. Fortunately, God is blessing her!" Li En said, clasping his hands together and bowing to God devoutly.

Turning around, Li En couldn't help but say with a bit of reproach, "How many times has this happened? Every time the princess has risked her life for the sake of others, can't you just take care of yourself?"

As he said this, Li En couldn't help but blush.

Although she was just a slave, she regarded Lin Jianyue as family and support from the bottom of her heart. If something happened to Lin Jianyue, she really didn't know what to do, but Lin Jianyue loved to do such dangerous things.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" Lin Jianyue quickly took Li En's hand and wiped the tears on Li En's face with her sleeves.

For Lin Jianyue, Li En is not just a family member and friend.

"I just feel sorry for the girl, and hope that the girl can be more selfish. When encountering danger, the girl only needs to protect herself! I am a selfish person, and I don't care about the life and death of others, but girl, you are the person I hope to be safe!"

Li En said, tears flowing more and more fiercely.

Lin Jianyue sighed. She didn't understand Li En's thoughts. Everyone thought the same about the people they cared about.

"I understand, and I will try my best to protect myself, but Li En, you know, how can a person live in this world without any care and concern? The same is true for me. After repeated considerations, my conscience will trouble me, and I also have my own Whatever I can’t let go of, everything I do follows my heart, I don’t regret it, that’s enough!”

Li En listened quietly. She was very smart, so she quickly understood what Lin Jianyue meant.

"It's me, I'm confused!" Li En laughed through tears. She hoped that Lin Jianyue would be more selfish, but she almost forgot that she was Lin Jianyue.

If she were that worldly, pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages, then she wouldn't be her.

Just like when she rescued Li En from fire and water, she was just following her heart. No matter what, she has no regrets, which is already rare.

Seeing that Li En had figured it out, Lin Jianyue breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't know how to comfort people, especially the delicate Li En.

Fortunately, Li En is always so considerate.
