Chapter 187: Using the Opponent's Trick

Above the small town, there are few people.

Shen Lingjun pulled Zhiyuan across two streets and came to the inn where she lived. After closing the door, I breathed a deep sigh of relief.

In the room, Zhiyuan looked around the room casually, and finally his eyes fell on the door. His face was full of surprise and uncertainty, and Shen Lingjun, who breathed a deep sigh of relief, was slightly confused.

"You, what?"

"Girl Zhiyuan, I forgot to tell you..."

Shen Lingjun took a deep breath and calmed down: "It was too dangerous just now!"

"Danger?"

Zhiyuan looked even more suspicious.

"yes!"

Shen Lingjun lowered his voice slightly: "Did you notice anything unusual when you stayed at that inn before?"

"abnormal?"

"It's just...haven't you noticed that there are mysterious and sneaky people everywhere around you?"

Mysterious?

sneaking?

Zhiyuan quickly realized that the people Shen Lingjun was talking about should be pro-military guards hiding inside and outside the inn?

Zhiyuan thought for a while and nodded: "Yes."

"Yes, the origins of those people are not simple..."

Shen Lingjun took a deep breath: "Also, did you see the dog...person standing behind me on the second floor just now?"

Zhiyuan remained calm and stared at Shen Lingjun: "What's wrong with him?"

"The origin of his identity is not simple..."

Having said this, Shen Lingjun had a look of indignation on his face, and he immediately explained to Zhiyuan.

"..."

"Prince Linwang?"

Zhiyuan looked at Shen Lingjun in front of him quietly. He looked like he was gnashing his teeth. He clearly seemed to have a deep hatred for Prince Lin?

Zhiyuan frowned slightly at first, and then became vaguely aware of it.

"Yes, he is the notorious Prince Lin of Linzhou!"

Shen Lingjun gritted his teeth and spoke, but when he saw the calm expression on Girl Zhiyuan's face, he was slightly startled: "Miss Zhiyuan, you don't know him?"

Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, "I heard a little bit about it!"

"I see……"

Shen Lingjun thought that Miss Zhiyuan didn't know about Prince Lin Wang's evil deeds. After all, this was Yanzhou. Although Prince Lin Wang was notorious, not everyone knew about his bad deeds.

Therefore, Shen Lingjun decided to educate Miss Zhiyuan about the evil deeds of the son of a bitch.

"Speaking of that son of a bitch, the things he has done are countless..."

"The people of Linzhou are all gnashing their teeth and hating him to the bone..."

"..."

Shen Lingjun told Zhiyuan like a treasure trove of the evil deeds that Prince Lin had committed, one by one. When he got excited, he remembered the tragic death of Miss Yingying and wished he could personally bring that son of a bitch to justice. Act on behalf of heaven!

There was still no expression on Zhiyuan's face, but when her originally calm eyes fell on Shen Lingjun, they seemed a little colder.

She was silent for a long time.

"Do you have any grudge against him?"

Zhiyuan suddenly asked.

"have!"

Shen Lingjun nodded angrily and told Zhiyuan about the conflict between her and Lin Jiangnian.

After learning of Chen Yingying's tragic death in Linjiang City, she sneaked into a brothel and pretended to be an oiran to assassinate Lin Jiangnian. After the failure, she was forced to flee. Later, he attempted to assassinate Lin Jiangnian on the road in Xunyang City. After failing again, he met the girl Zhiyuan...

Shen Lingjun told the story about her grudges with Lin Jiangnian without reservation. She had great trust in the girl Zhiyuan in front of her. If the girl Zhiyuan hadn't come to the rescue before, she might have died long ago.

However, what Shen Lingjun didn't notice was that while she was detailing her grievances with Lin Jiangnian, Zhiyuan, who had been listening quietly, changed her expression slightly.

The face still didn't change much, but those eyes seemed to realize something, and they looked a little colder when staring at Shen Lingjun.

That was a habit she had developed subconsciously during her years in Prince Lin's Mansion!

She remembered that His Highness had indeed been assassinated once when he was in the brothel in Linjiang City.

The person responsible for protecting His Highness that time was Lin Kong, and it was Lin Kong's negligence that time that almost caused a big disaster. After being severely reprimanded and warned by her, Lin Kong was dismissed from his position and waited for the fate of His Highness and the Prince.

The whereabouts of the assassin who killed His Highness was unknown after that.

That time...

It turned out to be her?

Zhiyuan looked at Shen Lingjun a few more times, thoughtfully, his eyes vaguely sharp.

This cold and chilling gaze made Shen Lingjun, who was still thinking about it, seem to notice it and subconsciously raised his head.

"Girl Zhiyuan, what's wrong?"

Zhiyuan looked away and said calmly: "It's okay."

The tone was neither cold nor indifferent, but seemed to be hesitant.

After a moment of silence, Zhiyuan glanced at her again and said calmly: "What are you going to do?"

At this moment, Shen Lingjun didn't realize that he had exposed his background. When Miss Zhiyuan asked, he immediately gritted his teeth.

"Of course I want to get rid of that bitch prince and seek justice for Chen Yingying and all the innocent people who were oppressed and killed by him!"

Shen Lingjun said with indignation, not noticing that Zhi Yuan beside her was looking at her with an increasingly cold look.

"But, Miss Zhiyuan, I'm afraid I can't do it alone..."

Speaking of this, Shen Lingjun was a little frustrated.

She failed in two assassinations and has realized her incompetence. When she met her uncle this time, she wanted to persuade her to do justice for heaven, but he told her not to mess around. He also said that Prince Lin had a good character and did not look as bad as the rumors outside...

What kind of confusing soup did Master Uncle have?

Master Uncle was unwilling to take action, so Shen Lingjun could only think of other ways. Now that she met Miss Zhiyuan, she would naturally not miss this opportunity.

"Miss Zhiyuan, I hope you can help!"

Shen Lingjun knew that Miss Zhiyuan hated evil as much as she did. If she could get Miss Zhiyuan's help, the chance of assassinating that dog prince would be much greater.

"Help?"

Zhiyuan was obviously stunned, looked at her strangely, and was silent for a long time: "How do you need my help?"

"That dog prince is surrounded by masters, and it is difficult for me to kill him alone. But if you can help Miss Zhiyuan, it will be different..."

Shen Lingjun whispered: "Miss Zhiyuan, you and I will work together to eradicate this scourge, avenge Miss Yingying, avenge the innocent people of Linjiang City, and restore the world to a bright and clear world..."

Shen Lingjun said righteously and resolutely. He clenched his fist secretly, as if he was going to do something very great.

Zhiyuan looked at her expressionlessly for a long time, and nodded without changing his expression.

"Okay."

"..."

It was getting close to evening.

Lin Jiangnian sat at the window of the room, looking at the scenery outside the window.

The wind in late autumn was getting colder.

Calculating the time, there was still a long distance from the capital, and now it had not left the territory of Yanzhou.

Information from the territory of Yanzhou was still coming in continuously.

Xunyang City was in chaos.

The dignified Xunyang prefect was killed and the whole family was killed. This news was too shocking. As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar and heated discussion in the entire Yanzhou.

The news even spread to the capital.

Yuan Zhongnan was in a state of panic. There were two small mutinies in Xunyang County. If Yuan Zhongnan had not been prepared, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, the chaos in Yanzhou is only temporary. After all, Yuan Zhongnan is the governor of Yanzhou. If he can't handle such a thing well, it's a bit too much to underestimate him.

On the other hand, although he hasn't arrived in the capital yet, the situation in the capital is always under Lin Jiangnian's ears. Staring at the intelligence sent on the table, Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes.

"This third prince is really not a good person, and his ambitions are not small!"

Lin Jiangnian sneered.

The rumors in the capital are indeed true. The third prince is unwilling to be a prince and stays in the capital. Privately, he has ties with many forces in the capital.

What he is planning is naturally extraordinary...

The emperor has been in seclusion for a long time due to his serious illness, and he has not taken care of the government affairs, and the forces in the court are complicated. With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sitting in the regent, it is safe and sound.

But not long ago, a news suddenly came out in the capital that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly fainted in the bedroom. Although the imperial physician arrived in time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not seriously injured.

But once this news came out, it still attracted the attention of many people.

There are many rumors. Some say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince overworked and fell ill due to the heavy burden on his body. Some also say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a stubborn disease and is at the end of his strength. Some people even say that they saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince vomiting blood...

Various rumors are coming one after another, but they also reveal a key piece of information.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may have a problem with his health!

This is a crucial message!

The emperor is seriously ill and in seclusion, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly has a problem with his health. If something unexpected happens...

"It seems that the capital is really lively!"

Lin Jiangnian's eyes are happy.

The more chaotic the capital is, the better news it is for him and even the Lin Wang Mansion.

He entered the capital this time, and he was afraid that the capital would not be chaotic.

Just as Lin Jiangnian was thinking, there was a sound of pushing the door outside, and a figure walked in slowly.

Lin Jiangnian looked up, a little surprised: "Zhiyuan?"

The person who walked into the room was Zhiyuan.

"Are you back?"

Lin Jiangnian looked Zhiyuan up and down, raised his eyebrows: "Where is Miss Shen?"

Zhiyuan didn't say anything, walked slowly closer, his eyes fell on the information on the table, after a glance, he retracted his gaze, and looked at Lin Jiangnian at the window.

"Come here."

Lin Jiangnian waved at her.

Zhiyuan stood there, hesitated for a moment, and walked forward slowly.

As soon as he approached, Lin Jiangnian habitually held her hand, and then stretched out his hand to hug her slender waist and hugged her into his arms.

Zhiyuan's face was a little unnatural, and she struggled slightly. Then she let Lin Jiangnian do something frivolous.

"What did she say to you?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her pretty face, smiling: "Did she ask you to assassinate this prince together?"

Zhiyuan was silent for a while and nodded.

"Sure enough."

Lin Jiangnian's eyes were playful.

He realized something when Shen Lingjun anxiously pulled Zhiyuan out of the inn, looking nervous and hurried.

Zhiyuan, is she the beautiful and powerful female knight she mentioned?

It's really... a coincidence!

"How did you get to know her? Tell me about it?"

Lin Jiangnian hugged Zhiyuan with one hand, leaned in to smell her faint fragrance, and asked softly.

Zhiyuan was a little uncomfortable, turned her face away, a blush flashed across her face, and she bit her lower lip lightly.

"I met her in an inn in a small town outside Xunyang City. Her martial arts were sealed by you, and she ran into trouble in the inn..."

Zhiyuan spoke softly and talked about the scene of meeting Shen Lingjun.

At that time, Shen Lingjun was unarmed and was threatened by the owner of the black shop inn in the small town and almost sold out. Zhiyuan rescued her in time and uncovered the abduction and trafficking of women in the small town inn. Afterwards, the two were arrested and taken to the county jail. Under Zhiyuan's instructions, Shen Lingjun escaped from prison and went to Xunyang City to kidnap Wang Qin until they discovered the secret room in the back mountain...

Zhiyuan's voice was very soft, with a bit of coldness, but very soft, and she described in detail the process of her acquaintance with Shen Lingjun.

After hearing this, Lin Jiangnian became thoughtful and then remembered something: "So when you went out that day, you went to see her?"

Zhiyuan nodded slightly.

"I see."

Lin Jiangnian nodded. He also wondered why Zhiyuan had friends in Xunyang City.

It turns out that it’s Nvxia Shen!

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian smiled a bit strangely.

"That's a bit of a coincidence!"

Unexpectedly, Shen Lingjun met Zhiyuan by accident?

Unexpectedly, she actually wanted to take Zhiyuan with her to assassinate him?

interesting!

Lin Jiangnian suddenly looked forward to how the heroine Shen would react after knowing the truth.

Presumably, it will be exciting?

"So, she doesn't know your identity yet?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at Zhiyuan, who shook his head slightly, paused for a moment, and looked at him again.

"What are you going to do?"

"What do you think?"

Lin Jiangnian asked back.

There seemed to be a bit of silence on Zhiyuan's delicate face.

"She's not a bad person at heart."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhiyuan spoke.

But then, a sharp coldness flashed through her eyes.

"I'll take care of her."

Lin Jiangnian looked at her, a little surprised, but seemed to be expecting it.

Based on Zhiyuan's temperament, it stands to reason that when she learned that Shen Lingjun had the idea of ​​​​murdering him, she should have been killed.

He understands Zhiyuan, and Zhiyuan will never be merciful in this regard.

Now that Zhiyuan is saying this, it shows that she has some soft feelings for the heroine Shen.

It seems that the relationship between the two is not bad?

"She is indeed a heroine with a righteous heart, but it's a pity that she has a single-minded brain and is not very effective!"

"She may not be a bad person, but if she is stupid, she will most likely do bad things!"

Lin Jiang young shook his head lightly and sighed: "If she hadn't killed me, I might have to praise her a little!"

The heroine is a good heroine. It is rare to meet such a passionate heroine in this world of intrigues.

It's a pity that she was targeting Lin Jiangnian.

Lin Jiangnian couldn't praise her enough.

Zhiyuan remained silent and lowered his eyes.

"A self-righteous heroine like this just suffers from the disadvantages."

Lin Jiangnian sighed with emotion, glanced at Zhiyuan in his arms, and hugged her into his arms.

Zhiyuan was caught off guard and was held in Lin Jiangnian's lap. Her delicate body was tense, as if she didn't expect Lin Jiangnian to do such an intimate thing to her.

Although the two of them now sleep on the same bed, they have also had close contact. But such an aboveboard thing still made her blush instantly.

Her delicate body tensed, and she immediately broke away from Lin Jiangnian's arms, took a few steps back, and turned her head.

Lin Jiangnian felt a little regretful, felt the warmth in his palms, and said with a half-smile, "Didn't she want to assassinate my son?"

"In that case, let's try to pull it off!"

"Teach this righteous woman Shen a lesson!"

"..."
