Uncle, don't overdo it

Chapter 83 Slaying the Snake

The matter had been resolved with ease, Lin Xiner didn't want to worry about Ximen Jingyu's issue, and instead thought about Yiyao's matter.

It is quite difficult to act under Ximen Jingxuan's nose while entering Mo Yaxuan's secret dark room.

Hearing Yi Yao's response, Lin Xiner knew that Yi Yao had woken up, so she was relieved.

After filling her stomach, Lin Xiner lay back on the bed and began to truly rest.

After a while, the door opened with a creak, and Yan'er walked in gently. Seeing that Lin Xiner had eaten the cold food on the table, she frowned, and said in a reproachful voice, "Oh, miss, what do you eat?" Have cold food? Wake up and don’t call your slaves.”

Lin Xiner closed her eyes and fell asleep, ignoring Yan'er.

Yan'er shook her head helplessly, covered Lin Xiner with a quilt, and left the house with the rest of the food.

It was already dark at this time, Lin Xiner took a nap for a while, and heard noises outside, got up, quietly left the house, turned over and jumped on the roof, leaning over the rubble to pay attention to the movement nearby, only saw a few figures looking towards Ximen Jing He hurried towards Xuan's study.

The whereabouts of these people are not hidden, they should be from Ximen Jingxuan, it seems that Ximen Jingxuan has something to do tonight.

Lin Xiner concealed her curiosity and quietly returned to the house.

Suddenly, a slippery thing slid by under her feet, and following the direction of that thing, Lin Xiner clearly saw a black shadow like a snake crawling into her quilt.

Lin Xiner then screamed and ran out of the house.

She wasn't sure if the snake that Liu Suixiang had deliberately sent had come back to commit the crime, or if someone had done it on purpose, so she could only pretend to be panicked.

"Xiaobai, is Xiaobai here?" Someone was looking at the gate of the plum blossom garden with a lantern.

"It's Mrs. Mei." Hearing Lin Xiner's cry, Yan'er who ran out from another side room recognized the person.

"My lord, did that snake scare you again?" Mrs. Mei walked into the plum garden with a lantern.

Under the blush light of the lantern, it was the first time for Lin Xiner to see this Mrs. Mei who knew how to train snakes. She had a graceful figure, a melon-seeded face, almond eyes, a small cherry mouth, a standard Xiaojiabiyu appearance, and she walked lightly. The proportions and postures are all handled by her just right.

Lin Xiner stroked her chest, pointed to her room, and said to Mrs. Mei, "That snake—"

Mrs. Mei nodded, blessed Lin Xiner, and walked into the room.

Lin Xiner silently watched Mrs. Mei's back. She made a few gestures and made strange noises, and the snake jumped out of the quilt and wrapped itself around Mrs. Mei's arm holding the lantern.

Mrs. Mei turned and walked out of the house, came to Lin Xiner, and said, "My lord, this snake has been taken away by me, and I promise not to disturb my mother again."

"Huh? This snake training technique is quite interesting, can Mrs. Mei teach it to me?" Lin Xiner looked curiously at the little white snake on Mrs. Mei's arm.

"Why do you learn this? Do you want to get bitten more, or do you want to disturb the peace of the palace?"

As soon as Ximen Jingxuan's voice fell, he had already jumped in front of the two of them. With a wave of his hand, the little white snake broke off at seven inches, folded in two and fell at Mrs. Mei's feet.

"Ah!" As soon as Madam Mei exclaimed, she forcibly blocked her back, staring blankly at the snake on the ground.

Lin Xiner looked at the reddish light from the lantern, a faint sadness flashed across Madam Mei's face.

"Go back to your place." Ximen Jingxuan said indifferently to Mrs. Mei.

Mrs. Mei knelt down silently, picked up the two sections of snake body, picked up her clothes and wrapped them up, and left the Plum Blossom Garden with the lantern.

Lin Xiner knew that Ximen Jingxuan was attracted by her scream just now, so she also stood silently, waiting for his move.

Ximen Jingxuan walked up to Lin Xiner. In the night, his eyes shone like stars.

The two faced each other silently, and Yan'er at the side mistakenly thought that she was an eyesore and affected the good affairs of the prince and the lady, so she hurried to her room.

Lin Xiner also felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, she looked up at Ximen Jingxuan without changing her expression.

"What do you think this king smells like now?" For a moment, Ximen Jingxuan broke the silence.

Lin Xiner was slightly startled, her eyes flickered as she looked at Ximen Jingxuan, and she shook her head blankly.

"I don't know?" Ximen Jingxuan asked calmly.

Lin Xiner shook her head again.

At this time, she has already guessed that it must have something to do with her being the first to point out that Chen Rufeng has the fragrance of jasmine on Chen Rufeng's body in Jinyang Palace. Dare to act on your own merits, that is the prelude to make things difficult for yourself.

It seems that Ximen Jingxuan is really a careful person, and every detail can arouse his suspicion. Fortunately, his ability to condense the smell is a level in the Water Moon Kung Fu, which is unique to the Water Moon Palace. Ximen Jingxuan would never know.

Sure enough, Ximen Jingxuan said next, "In the palace, don't you have a good nose?"

He had already found out everything that happened in the palace, and he closed his eyes and didn't think about it. He knew that Chen Rufeng would never be so stupid as to send an assassin to the prison to assassinate Lin Xiner, but the evidence was not good for him. The emperor, who was tossed into a frightened bird by the war years ago, could no longer tolerate the slightest sloppy, so he gave a straightforward decree and Chen Rufeng's court.

Although the superficial result is also what he wants, but he also needs to figure out the conspiracy behind the matter.

"In the palace?" Lin Xiner suddenly said, "In the palace, the scent of flowers on Chen Shangshu's body is indeed very strong, and the concubine can smell it clearly, and the concubine has also carefully thought about changing through Eunuch Tao's clothes. I can smell the fragrance of jasmine next to my body, so I definitely pointed out Chen Shangshu's suspicious behavior."

Anyway, it's been a long time, so let her talk.

Ximen Jingxuan naturally expected this, so he didn't continue to ask, but his doubts still existed. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Xiner, "It's best not to let this king find out that this matter is related to Grand Master Lin. Chen Rufeng's behavior is suspicious. Being dismissed from court, Grand Master Lin also has the same possibility."

"Don't worry, my lord. Daddy is sitting up straight. I'm not afraid of my lord to investigate." Lin Xiner smiled sweetly. This matter really has nothing to do with the Grand Master's Mansion. Ximen Jingxuan really missed it.

But then Lin Xiner changed her voice and said, "Actually, although the evidence for this matter points directly to Chen Shangshu, the concubine also has doubts."

"Oh?" Ximen Jingxuan's eyes did not move, he kept watching Lin Xiner closely.

"Actually, when I told the prince about this in private, my concubine believed that the prince did it." Lin Xiner continued calmly.
