Chapter 9
"We meet again."

"Why is the princess here? Where are the guards?"

Thinking of Xuan Zijun who suddenly appeared alone, Lin Zixi's face turned cold instantly.

Xuan Zijun noticed the change in Lin Zixi's complexion, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.What kind of environment makes a boudoir girl who is supposed to be carefree so vigilant?Thinking of the severe criticism Lin Zixi received that day, Xuan Zijun couldn't help clenching his fists.

"The princess!"

At this time, a few swordsmen in green clothes came chasing them not far away. Lin Zixi knew they were looking for Mr. Xuanzi when she heard them shouting "Prince Master", so she felt relieved.Judging from what Xuanzi-jun did for him last time, Xuanzi-jun probably didn't want to harm him.But Bao Buding was another conspiracy of the Wang family, so Lin Zixi had to guard against it.

"The princess is here."

When Xuan Zijun saw Yue Luo chasing up, he couldn't help curling his lips, and when he looked back, Lin Zixi was already running towards the carriage that fell on the ground.Naturally, Xuan Zijun followed quickly, ignoring Yue Luo who was chasing him.

"let me help you."

Seeing Lin Zixi struggling to help Fei Yan out, Xuan Zijun hurried forward to help.Lin Zixi shook her head, still silently put Fei Yan on her shoulder, supporting her carefully.Although her feet were staggering, she still helped her to the tree with great care.

The sunlight casts mottled shadows through the dense leaves. Under the shade of a tree, the light shrouds Lin Zixi's soft and beautiful side face.Xuan Zijun couldn't help but feel flustered, it turns out that she is not such a cold-hearted person.

"Crimson Yan, Scarlet Yan."

Lin Zixi called softly a few times, but Feiyan still didn't respond at all.Lin Zixi anxiously touched the artery in Feiyan's neck, and let out a breath of foul air, it turned out that she just passed out.Taking out her own silk handkerchief and simply bandaging the wound on Fei Yan's forehead, Lin Zixi sighed.I'm afraid that scars will be left in the future, and appearance is something bigger than the sky for a woman.

"Princess, can Zi Xi ask you something?"

Lin Zixi glanced at Fei Yan who was still in a coma, and stood up to look at Xuan Zijun.Although she was begging for help, Lin Zixi's spine did not bend from the beginning to the end.

Xuan Zijun saw all this in his eyes, and there was a smile in his brows and eyes, so bright that it could almost dim the sun.

"Sister Xi, speak up!"

Lin Zixi looked at Xuan Zijun in front of her and was slightly taken aback. It had been a long time since anyone called her Sister Xi, and she remembered that a child called her that way at that time.It's a pity that a year later, she died because of her fragrance.

"My carriage is ruined, I don't know if I can..."

"Sister Xi is obliged to do whatever Zi Jun wants to do."

Looking at Lin Zixi's eyes flashed a trace of complicated emotions, and then turned into indifference, Xuan Zijun knew that Lin Zixi was not the kind of daughter who would accept everything. After all, the arrow that pierced the horse's throat was fast, accurate and ruthless. Without a trace of hesitation.

"Thank you, Lord."

Lin Zixi accepted a blessing to Xuan Zijun according to the usual etiquette.Then he ordered Yue Luo and the others to deal with the scene, and then took Fei Yan into Xuan Zijun's carriage.

Sitting on the carriage, Lin Zixi frowned and recalled everything that happened today.This Mrs. Wang is really thoughtful!

First let the groom insult her innocence, and then let her second brother Lin Yihan wait on the road with people and kill them.At that time, not only will he die, but his reputation will be ruined after death.He also used soul-calling, so afraid that if he escaped, Lin Zixi would have no way out no matter if he shot himself or the horse.

But fortunately, I was able to meet Mr. Xuanzi, but why did Mr. Xuanzi come here?Didn't the carriage of the palace leave in the early morning?It was half an hour earlier than them.Thinking of this, Lin Zixi looked at Xuan Zijun suspiciously.

Night fell quietly, as if casting a deep curtain over the entire sky.But at this time, Prime Minister Lin's mansion was brightly lit, and the Xixiang Courtyard where the old lady lived was lively.

Mrs. Wang sat on the chair closest to Mrs. Hong, and whispered something into the old lady's ear. The old lady's expression was unwavering and angry, while Lin Suiyuan stood beside her with a livid face.The fifth aunt Shi Shi and the sixth aunt Liu were also sitting in the room, and next to them were their daughters, the fourth miss Lin Ziteng, and the fifth miss Lin Ziluo.

"You bastard! This rebellious woman actually did such a mediocre thing! Suiyuan, has the person you sent out come back yet?"

After listening to Wang's whispered words, Mrs. Hong couldn't help being furious. Leaning on the crutch with the crane's head in her hand, she stood on the ground desperately twice, and roared at Lin Suiyuan.

Lin Suiyuan's complexion was not good, but he still seemed unwilling to believe his daughter, glanced sideways at Mrs. Wang, and said respectfully to the old lady.

"The old lady has not come back now, and no one knows what happened. After all, it is not appropriate to make a big deal about being the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, otherwise it will ruin the reputation of the entire prime minister's mansion. When the time comes, let the rest How can the few children of your family get married?"

By now, it was completely dark outside, but Lin Zixi still hadn't returned.Everyone had their own thoughts, but what they thought of was not Lin Zixi's comfort, but the things that were most beneficial to them.Such a blood connection, how can people not be frightened.

Seeing that Lin Suiyuan was already angry with him, Wang didn't dare to say anything bad about Lin Zixi. Anyway, as long as the matter is settled, there is no need to say anything by herself.What's more, her Han'er has sent word back that Lin Zixi is already dead!
"Old lady, don't be too angry. The master is right. The matter is not yet settled. Maybe the second lady is just going out to meet some friends."

There was something in Wang's words, she seemed to be defending Lin Zixi, but she was able to arouse everyone's suspicion of Lin Zixi, and completely wiped herself out.

Sure enough, after listening to Wang's words, Lin Suiyuan and Hong's expressions became more and more gloomy.Finally, the butler stumbled in, saluted everyone, and then looked around the room wondering if he should tell the news.

"It's getting late, take Auntie and the ladies back. Tonight I have to go to the banquet at the Xiping Palace, so don't be late. Wang, you stay here!"

All the people were sent out, only Mrs. Wang, Lin Suiyuan and the old lady were left in the room.The old lady put the crane-headed crutch on the ground, and said majesticly.

"Tell me, did anyone find it?"

"When the old lady met, the guards all lost. It was said that the second lady was going to the woods ahead, and told them not to follow, and only brought Fei Yan and the coachman. After that, the guards waited for a long time, but they didn't arrive. Second Miss came back, so I went to look for it. But I saw Second Miss and... and..."
