Chapter 317 Auntie's Advice
"Your Highness!"
Lin Jiangnian left his aunt's place and returned to his small courtyard. There was a figure in the courtyard who had been waiting for him for a long time.
Lin Qingqing, dressed in a smart outfit, stands under the eaves, with a sword on her waist and a dusty look.
"How's the situation outside?"
Lin Jiangnian asked.
Lin Qingqing lowered her head and replied: "People from Mi Tiansi and the city defense army are here. The detectives in Jingzhao Mansion have also been alerted and are digging three feet into the ground to find Chen Feiyang's whereabouts..."
Lin Jiangnian raised his head and looked outside the courtyard. Looking from a distance, he could vaguely see some dazzling lights, lighting up the dark night.
They were far apart and there was a lot of movement.
"Before the Mitiansi reinforcements arrived, my subordinates had already taken care of the funeral affairs without leaving any clues, but..."
Lin Qingqing hesitated and said, "But I'm afraid Mi Tiansi will still find out about His Highness!"
What happened tonight was too sensitive and too noisy!
The protector of Mitiansi was assassinated in the street, and Mitiansi lost twenty or thirty masters. This is simply shocking and will definitely trigger a thorough investigation by Mitiansi.
"It's okay, let them check it out."
Lin Jiangnian didn't take it to heart.
From the moment he decided to kill Chen Feiyang, Lin Jiangnian knew that he would be suspected no matter what.
After all, there are not many people who dare to kill the emperor's personal guards in the middle of the capital.
Lin Jiangnian is undoubtedly one of the most suspicious people.
However, Lin Jiangnian did not intend to stay out of the matter from the beginning. His target is not just Chen Feiyang, the protector...
"Where are the other three? Did they show up tonight?"
Lin Jiangnian asked again.
Lin Qingqing shook her head and said: "Only Chen Changqing, the leader of the Mitian Division, is here tonight. The other three guardians have not made any movement, and our people have not found any information."
"It seems that they are still very cautious!"
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes slightly.
In Mitiansi, except for Chen Feiyang, the identities and whereabouts of the other three guardians are very mysterious and they rarely appear.
Compared to Chen Feiyang, it is more difficult to kill the other three!
"They should already know what happened tonight, have suspicions, and won't show up easily..."
Lin Qingqing said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, do you need your subordinates to lead them out?"
"No need!"
Lin Jiangnian shook his head. The three guardians acted so cautiously. If they deliberately took the initiative, they would inevitably arouse suspicion.
"Don't worry, they will show up sooner or later. Once Chen Feiyang dies, if they don't show up to take charge of the overall situation, Mitian Sike will be in chaos..."
Lin Jiangnian laughed and looked up at Qing Qing: "Where is Chen Feiyang?"
"Chen Feiyang's martial arts skills are completely useless. Lin Kong has moved him to a hidden place in the city."
Having said this, Lin Qingqing hesitated: "Your Highness, why not just kill him?"
"Keeping him for the time being is more useful than killing him."
Lin Jiangnian shook his head lightly: "He is a close confidant of the eunuch Chen Zhao. He must know a lot of secrets about Chen Zhao and Mi Tiansi. Find a way to pry open his mouth as soon as possible."
"yes!"
Lin Qingqing's eyes gradually became serious. As a person from the Prince's Palace, she was very familiar with torture.
Of all the people who fell into the hands of Prince Lin's Mansion, there was no one who was not honest and confessed with tears in his eyes. Even if a master fell into Prince Lin's Mansion, he had to at least have his skin peeled off.
"Okay, it's getting late. You've worked hard today. Let's go and rest early."
After the business was finished, Lin Jiangqing waved his hand gently and asked Qingqing to go ahead and rest.
"Subordinates resign!"
Lin Qingqing handed over her hands and exited the courtyard.
Lin Jiangnian stood there for a while and looked up at the night. It was getting late. I guess Zhiyuan should have returned from her aunt at this time, right?
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian set out to find Zhiyuan in the courtyard next door.
…
other side.
In a dimly lit room.
Jiang Yuxiang was holding Zhiyuan's little hand and speaking earnestly.
"Zhiyuan, you and Jiang Nian are now in love and like each other. My aunt is also very happy, but it's a pity that you have to be wronged..."
"Jiang Nian is the eldest son after all, and he is still engaged to the eldest princess of the current dynasty. This boy said that he wants to break off the engagement with the eldest princess, but it is not yet certain whether he can break off..."
"But don't worry, with my aunt supporting you, I will definitely not let you be bullied. Next year, my aunt will go to Prince Lin's Mansion and have a good talk with Prince Lin. I will definitely allow you to marry happily. If that kid dares to bully You, aunt, can't spare him..."
"Zhiyuan, do you know the current situation of Prince Lin's Mansion? Nowadays, Prince Lin's Mansion is suffering from internal and external troubles. The imperial court is afraid of Prince Lin's Mansion and intends to cut down the feudal vassal, and the internal affairs of Prince Lin's Mansion are not stable... The generals of Prince Lin's Army only recognize Lin Hengzhong, but not Lin Hengzhong. He is the prince of Prince Lin. In addition, Jiang Nian is now weak and has no heir. This is one of the reasons why the generals do not recognize Jiang Nian... If anything happens to him, Prince Lin's palace will directly cut off the heirs... "
"So, it is urgent to stay with the Lin family!"
Jiang Yuxiang sighed slightly: "The little maid Xiaozhu is indeed cute and well-behaved, but she is a bit young, and she is a maid of Prince Lin's Mansion. Even if she gives birth to Jiang Nian's child, she cannot be considered a direct descendant... But you, Zhiyuan, are different. Although you You are nominally Jiang Nian's maid, but you are also a member of our Jiangnan Jiang family, and you can be considered the child bride left by my sister to Jiang Nian..."
"Look, Zhiyuan, do you want to think about... giving Jiang Nian a child or something?"
Before Jiang Yuxiang finished speaking, Zhiyuan in front of him was already confused.
After listening to my aunt's words, my head was slightly confused, and my fair and pretty face turned red.
Think about it? !
"Little, aunt..."
Zhiyuan's voice was shy, and she was a little at a loss. She didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing Zhiyuan's appearance, Jiang Yuxiang chuckled: "Don't be nervous, my aunt is just giving you a suggestion. After all, you have already fallen in love with Jiang Nian. The brat has bullied you all the way to Beijing, right?"
Zhiyuan lowered her head, gently pinched the corners of her clothes with her bare hands, and said nothing.
Bully?
That's really a lot of bullying.
Her face was red and inexplicably hot.
"If possible, I still hope you can consider it!"
Jiang Yuxiang looked at the blushing and panic-looking girl in front of him and sighed softly: "No matter whether Jiang Nian will marry the eldest princess or not, as long as you can give birth to a child for Jiang Nian, it will be enough to stabilize your future." The status of the palace. Even if there are other women around Jiang Nian in the future, your status will not be shaken..."
Letting Zhiyuan give Lin Jiangnian a child was an idea that just came to Jiang Yuxiang's mind, but it was also a plan that he had carefully considered!
The population of Prince Lin's palace was sparse, and after Princess Lin's death, Lin Hengzhong was unwilling to marry again. The hope of revitalizing Prince Lin's Mansion can only fall on Lin Jiangnian.
As the eldest son of Prince Lin, Lin Jiangnian has the obligation to contribute to Prince Lin's palace. More importantly, Lin Jiangnian is the only bloodline left by his sister in this world.
Jiang Yuxiang didn't care much about Prince Lin's Mansion, but she didn't want her sister to remain in this world with her only bloodline cut off.
Nowadays, only Zhiyuan is the best candidate for Lin Jiangnian. She and Lin Jiangnian have already had a mutual understanding, and they like each other. Although they are not married yet,...
You can also have children first!
Jiang Yuxiang is not an antique, and she has no intention of waiting until she gets married. And a more important reason is that as the prince of Lin Jiangnian, it is difficult for Zhiyuan to become Jiangnian's first wife!
After all, Zhiyuan's apparent identity is that of a maid in Prince Lin's palace. The generals and subordinates of Prince Lin's army naturally did not want their future Princess Lin to be a maid.
Under such circumstances, if Zhiyuan could give birth to Lin Jiangnian's child first, she would be able to secure her position in the Lin family. If she can give birth to a boy and become the heir apparent, and if Lin Jiangnian really has no intention of marrying the eldest princess in the future, Zhiyuan may even have a chance to become the head wife!
This is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhiyuan!
This is also the reason why Jiang Yuxiang mentioned this matter. Of course, if Zhiyuan didn't want to, she wouldn't force it.
Seeing Zhiyuan lowering her head shyly, almost burying her head in her chest, not daring to raise her head.
Jiang Yuxiang sighed again: "Auntie is just giving you a suggestion. If you don't want to, that's okay. Auntie supports your idea..."
As he spoke, Jiang Yuxiang muttered to himself: "At worst, my aunt will go back and ask Jiang Nian to see if he has any other girls outside... If she is a girl from a good family, it is not impossible to bring her back..."
If Zhiyuan doesn't want to, it depends on whether that boy has hooked up with other girls outside. If you are innocent and can have children, it is not impossible...
Zhiyuan, who originally lowered his head and looked blushing, suddenly raised his head when he heard this.
The little hand held by Jiang Yuxiang suddenly tightened, and Jiang Yuxiang looked confused: "Zhiyuan, what's wrong with you?"
"without……"
Zhiyuan bit her lower lip lightly and turned her head away. There seemed to be something on her red and delicate face.
In his head, a figure in red appeared inexplicably.
At the same time, my heart suddenly tightened.
…
The cold little courtyard is surrounded by the cold wind.
Lin Jiangnian sat quietly on the steps under the eaves, looking boredly at the night in the courtyard.
The cold wind fell on him, but Lin Jiangnian couldn't feel the slightest chill.
Even if the Xuanyang mind method in the body is not functioning, it still continuously provides heat to Lin Jiangnian's body and blocks the cold wind.
This is the power of Xuanyang Mind Technique.
It continuously tempers Lin Jiangnian's body, making his aura's inner strength far stronger than that of people in the same realm!
This is why Lin Jiangnian is confident that he can beat Chen Feiyang.
In the same realm, as long as nothing unexpected happens, he can even use his strong internal energy to drag Chen Feiyang until his internal energy is exhausted and exhaust him to death...
Sitting under the eaves, Lin Jiangnian was waiting for the kite to come back while thinking about his next plan.
The purpose of keeping Chen Feiyang temporarily was to pry out news about Chen Zhao from him. Once pried out, Chen Feiyang must die!
However, its death is not completely meaningless.
Just as Chen Feiyang was shocked and unwilling to accept it, he was about to become a favor...
Presumably, the Miss Zhao family should be very interested in Chen Feiyang.
On the other side, it seems that someone from the Gao family came to send an invitation two days ago and wanted to meet Lin Jiangnian. I have been so busy these past two days that I almost forgot about this...
And the third prince, I wonder how his plan to compete for the heir apparent is going? I wonder how much the Crown Prince's illness has anything to do with him?
While Lin Jiangnian was thinking, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance wafting in the air.
It is very fragrant and smells good, floating in the air, as if it is there but not at all.
Lin Jiangnian turned his head and saw a kite wearing a cold temperament walking slowly under the eaves in front of him.
The dim light from the corridor fell on her, adding a sense of mystery.
The graceful and slender figure, exquisite and well-proportioned, and the close-fitting green long skirt make her temperament more beautiful. The skirt seems thin, but it shows the girl's figure. The waist that can be grasped, the plump chest that is tightly attached to the dress, and the beautiful face that Lin Jiangnian has seen countless times, but still likes.
Especially the cold color and the high and cold temperament that makes Lin Jiangnian think of the scene two nights ago.
For a moment, my heart is slightly hot.
Thinking of this cold and serious maid in front of me, but two nights ago, she was disheveled and begging for mercy, Lin Jiangnian inexplicably felt a sense of pride in his heart!
When he first met this high and cold little maid in the Lin Wang Mansion more than half a year ago, didn't Lin Jiangnian secretly make up his mind to take her down and make her obedient?
Now, this can be regarded as half of the original intention, right?
Taken!
But it's not completely tamed yet!
Still need to work hard!
"Zhiyuan."
Putting away the random thoughts in his mind, Lin Jiangnian stood up from the steps and walked to Zhiyuan with a smile.
As soon as he approached, he saw Zhiyuan's face flushed, with a blush that had not yet faded, and she looked even more beautiful in the night.
Lin Jiangnian asked in confusion: "What are you doing..."
When Zhiyuan saw Lin Jiangnian under the eaves, a trace of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes. She lowered her head slightly and shook her head: "No, it's okay..."
The voice was still cold, but Lin Jiangnian heard a hint of nervousness.
Something's wrong?
"What's wrong with you?"
Lin Jiangnian stared at Zhiyuan again, and then he saw that her expression was indeed not right. The flushed face and evasive eyes seemed like some kind of shy emotion.
"You, what's wrong?"
Lin Jiangnian was startled, as if he realized something: "What did my aunt tell you?"
"No, no."
"Really?"
Lin Jiangnian stared into her eyes and asked.
Zhiyuan's eyes dodged and she didn't look at him.
"No."
"You're not right, you've learned bad things!"
Lin Jiangnian stared at Zhiyuan for a while, and quickly concluded: "You've learned to lie, little Zhiyuan!"
Zhiyuan's eyes revealed a trace of shame and annoyance, but she felt a little guilty for some reason.
"I, I want to rest!"
She opened her mouth, trying to avoid Lin Jiangnian and go back to her room.
But just as she passed by Lin Jiangnian, she was suddenly hugged by Lin Jiangnian.
Zhiyuan was startled, her body was slightly tense, and before she could react, Lin Jiangnian had bent down, and his other hand passed through the girl's bent legs and picked her up by the waist.
"Okay, now you've learned to lie, even your own prince lied, I'll take care of you tonight!"
Lin Jiangnian said 'viciously'.
Zhiyuan opened her eyes wide, and the blush that had not completely dissipated reappeared. Her eyes were flustered and angry.
Clean up?
He clearly wanted to take advantage of the situation and had bad intentions!
"Let me go..."
Thinking of the "horrible" experience of the previous two nights, Zhiyuan blushed and struggled hard.
However, Lin Jiangnian held the struggling Zhiyuan and strode back to the room.
Close the door and lock it!
In the courtyard.
Under the eaves on the other side not far away, in the crack of the door, a pair of sneaky eyes were staring at the scene in front of them.
Xiaozhu, who secretly saw this scene, blushed and couldn't help but spit.
"Your Highness, bad guy, you want to bully Sister Zhiyuan again..."
"..."
