Xu Zhiyan knew that relying on her own abilities, she would not be able to find out anything even if she had a guess.

She rolled her eyes and immediately went back to tell Li Wenjin everything.

“Although these people just want to create some chaos and destabilize Magistrate Lin’s official position, seeing that they are so unsuspecting and dare to discuss these things in a store, I think there must be more than a few people who know these things. "

"If there are political opponents or enemies of Magistrate Lin among them, they can completely amplify the chaos, such as killing people, and directly bring down Magistrate Lin."

"Of course, most of the above are my personal guesses. I need Brother Wenjin to help you check whether this is the case."

There was a bit of flattery in her smile, and she didn't look philistine, even a little cute.

But Li Wenjin's attention was not focused on what she said. Instead, he looked her up and down with serious eyes. However, many changes were not visible to the naked eye. Under her gaze, he carefully held her in his arms, and then gently of checking her body.

After confirming that there were no new wounds and no old wounds opening, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"I shouldn't have let you go out. Things happened as soon as you went out. You were lucky not to get hurt this time. What will you do if you get hurt next time?"

Xu Zhiyan didn't expect that Li Wenjin's attention would be here after she said so much.

It feels sweet and sour in my heart.

"Oh, Brother Wenjin, this time was an accident. There will be no next time. You should first consider what I just said."

Li Wenjin raised her eyes slightly, which were originally cold, and with this action, they looked even more cold and stern. But from Xu Zhiyan's point of view, her eyes were full of love, so she was not afraid at all and continued to act coquettishly.

"I promise, there really won't be a next time, brother Wen Jin."

The long and soft tail sound hit Li Wenjin's heart.

He sighed.

"You, every time you ask me for something, I call you brother Wen Jin. If you ask me for anything, I don't have the suffix "brother". Seeing that you worked so hard today and called me brother so many times, I will help you this time. Yes, but there is a request."

He stopped and looked at her seriously.

"The request is that you don't go out again, because if things are really as you guessed, Baihua Town will be very dangerous next, and I don't want you to get hurt."

The person was brought out of Yangzhou Mansion intact, but she was injured before she reached her destination. He really couldn't accept her being injured again now.

Xu Zhiyan understood Li Wenjin's nervousness and nodded obediently.

In the days that followed, I conscientiously stayed at the front door and never took another step forward.

Until that day comes.

The usual hustle and bustle of the market suddenly became chaotic. Xu Zhiyan stood up and listened. She faintly heard the sharp cries of children. She frowned and counted the days in her heart. She found that today was the opening ceremony of the Hundred Flowers Festival, and her heart skipped a beat.

[Is the matter not done? 】

She lifted up her skirt and walked out quickly, but before she stepped out of her courtyard gate, she was stopped by soldiers.

"Miss Xu, His Highness has ordered that you are not allowed to step out of this door today."

Xu Zhiyan was anxious, "Why not? I have to go out today. Please get out of the way. If Wen Jin finds out, I will explain it myself and won't embarrass you."

The most basic ability of a soldier is to obey orders 100%, so no soldier responded to Xu Zhiyan. Xu Zhiyan gritted her teeth and planned to rush forward. The next second, Xu Yanqing appeared outside the door. He strode over, put his arms around Xu Zhiyan's shoulders, turned her around with a clever move, and led her back.

"Nanny, don't embarrass the soldiers. They all follow orders. If you are let out like that, even if you explain to His Highness later, they will be punished."

"So, I suggest you stay here obediently. If you have any questions, you can get them answered tonight."

Xu Yanqing pushed Xu Zhiyan to sit down. The person who had been struggling suddenly stopped struggling after hearing his last words, and looked at him with a pair of big eyes.

"Will you have an answer tonight?"

"Correct."

Xu Yanqing had never deceived Xu Zhiyan. When Xu Zhiyan heard this, she felt relieved and began to ask people about the situation outside.

Why did someone gather to make trouble at the grand ceremony? In the blink of an eye, it turned from a war of words to a fire fight. Torches were thrown one after another. The torches came into contact with flammable materials, and a fire suddenly broke out. Then His Highness rushed to the rescue.

In just a few words, Xu Zhiyan didn't know whether she should be happy or not.

"It's good that the rescuers arrived in time, but I don't understand why Wen Jin is leading the team. He is the prince. There is no need for him to lead the team for this kind of thing!"

[If this kind of thing is not handled well, it will be a fishy mess. 】

When Xu Yanqing heard that Xu Zhiyan was thinking about Li Wenjin in this way, she silently lamented that her sister was not married yet, so she started thinking about other men. The more she thought about it, the more sour she became.

Xu Zhiyan knew him well, and she could tell at a glance that he was jealous. She immediately raised her eyebrows and slapped him with her backhand.

"How long have you been here to get jealous? Besides, Wen Jin is my legitimate fiancé. I care about what happened to him!"

Xu Yanqing grinned and rubbed his arms.

"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything. Why are you hitting me so hard? Your elbows are bent outwards before you get married. If you get married, then it won't be a problem!"

Xu Zhiyan was really speechless, but the tension in her heart was indeed relieved a lot because of his gag.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore. Anyway, there won't be any useful information if I continue to ask. Come, drink tea with me and wait for the results."

This wait is until midnight.

During this period, Xu Zhiyan listened to the sounds outside going from peaceful to chaotic to peaceful, and her mood also fluctuated. It wasn't until Li Wenjin stood in front of her that her heart was completely relieved.

She stood up suddenly and looked at him with red eyes.

"I heard it all. It's so dangerous outside, why did you lead the team yourself and didn't let me go see it!"

The cry-like accusation made Li Wenjin's heart soften instantly. He raised his hand to gently pull her into his arms, placed his slender fingers on the back of her heart, and stroked her with moderate force, giving her a sense of security.

He waited until her mood stabilized before he spoke.

"I'm stopping you because I'm afraid you'll get hurt when you go out. I'm leading the team myself to gain popularity."

"Because of your previous reminder, I have a lot of information in my hands. Based on the information, I made a complete plan to get everyone the stolen goods. I personally led the team. Everyone can see my efforts and their confidence in me is also high." will increase." (End of Chapter)
