Chapter 364 What a Coincidence, You Are Here Too?

In the room, Zhao Xi looked at herself in the bronze mirror, reflecting a delicate and slightly powdered face.

Her dark eyebrows were curved, her nose was straight, and her red lips were shining with an alluring luster, gentle and soft, with an indescribable elegance.

She nodded, very satisfied with her image today.

"Xiao Yue."

She called the maid behind her who was still watching her young lady's beauty, and said unhappily: "What are you daydreaming about?"

Xiao Yue came back to her senses and blinked: "What's wrong, young lady?"

"Get ready to go out!"

Zhao Xi stood up and walked barefoot to the door, and Xiao Yue beside her hurriedly greeted her.

"Young lady, put on your shoes!"

Zhao Xi bent down, and the plain long skirt perfectly outlined her amazing body curves. Under the long skirt, a pair of slender white jade feet could be vaguely seen, looming. Put on exquisite snow silk white socks, the silk white socks with intricate and exquisite patterns extended to the depths of the plain snow skirt.

Xiaoyue, who was standing by, hurriedly helped her young lady put on her shoes and socks, and then stood up and said, "Then, young lady, I will wait for you outside first?"

"Go ahead."

Zhao Xi nodded, put on her shoes and socks, and walked out of the room.

The courtyard was cold, and just as Zhao Xi was about to leave the courtyard. Xiaoyue's surprised voice suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard not far away.

"Your Highness the Princess?!"

Zhao Xi raised his eyes and saw a familiar figure appearing at the gate of the courtyard not far ahead.

She was wearing a white dress and had a cold temperament. She stood at the gate of the courtyard like a thousand years of unmelted ice. In her hand, she held the 'Silver Moon' sword that she rarely left.

"Piaomiao?!"

Zhao Xi was slightly startled when he saw the princess who suddenly came to the door, and said in surprise, "Why are you here?!"

Li Piaomiao did not speak. She walked slowly into the courtyard, and her cold eyes fell on Zhao Xi. She seemed a little surprised, and after a few glances, she said, "Are you going out?"

For some reason, Zhao Xi felt a little guilty.

I can't tell the reason.

"Yes, yes!"

Zhao Xi nodded and asked, "Why are you here today?"

Strange!

Hasn't this woman always been alone?

It's hard for Zhao Xi to see her on weekdays. Every time, Li Piaomiao takes the initiative to come to Zhao Xi. But the number of times is also rare. What happened today?

If it were on weekdays, Zhao Xi would be happy.

She didn't have many friends in Beijing, and this maverick princess was one of them.

The relationship between the two was very good. Li Piaomiao took the initiative to find her, and Zhao Xi was naturally happy.

But today...

Li Piaomiao obviously came at a bad time.

Li Piaomiao held the sword, his expression was cold, and he said lightly: "Nothing."

Nothing?

So, just come to chat with her?

Zhao Xi blinked: "What a coincidence, I was just about to go out..."

Li Piaomiao glanced at her: "Where to?"

"Nanhu... cough, Xiaoyue said that the scenery over there is good, and I plan to go there while the weather is good today!"

Zhao Xi felt guilty for some reason, coughed lightly, and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go together? Rowing to enjoy the lake view?"

Based on Zhao Xi's understanding of Li Piaomiao, she likes quietness, doesn't like noise, and doesn't like to go out easily.

The weather is good today, there must be a lot of people over there, and Li Piaomiao has never liked such an environment. Therefore, if she takes the initiative to invite Li Piaomiao, she will most likely be rejected!

Sure enough, when Zhao Xi suggested going boating to enjoy the scenery together, Li Piaomiao frowned slightly, and her cold temperament became more and more worldly.

It seems that she is very resistant to this proposal.

But then, she hesitated for a moment, and suddenly nodded: "Okay."

The smile on Zhao Xi's face immediately froze.

She agreed?

Really, really want to go together? !

She, doesn't she dislike crowds? !

"Are you sure you want to go?"

Zhao Xi blinked, and suddenly felt that things were getting out of control, and was a little panicked: "There are a lot of people over there, you, don't you always dislike that kind of environment?"

"Really going?"

Li Piaomiao looked indifferent: "It's okay."

Zhao Xi: "..."

It's okay?

It's okay!

It's very annoying!

This, this is going to be a big deal!

The smile on Zhao Xi's face was somewhat stiff and unnatural at this moment. She suddenly regretted why she was so rude.

She never thought that Li Piaomiao would agree? !

What happened to her today?

Seeing Li Piaomiao's eyes fall on her, she was calm. At this point, there was no other way, Zhao Xi could only squeeze out a fairly bright smile.

"Then, let's go together!"

"Really, really good... Hehe, hehe..."

"..."

Beijing, South City, South Lake.

The weather is good today, it's rare that there is no rain or snow, the weather is sunny.

People were coming and going on the edge of Nanhu Lake.

There were many boats floating in the lake not far away. On the other side of the lake, willow trees hung low and fell into the lake, causing ripples.

People were coming and going in groups of three or two, including many young masters in brocade clothes, ladies from wealthy families, and talented men and beautiful women from afar.

It was so lively!

The prosperity of Beijing can be seen.

Not far away, on the edge of Nanhu Lake, Lin Jiangnian glanced around and took in the scenery in front of him.

He was relaxed and happy.

He was in a good mood!

The weather was finally clear, and those rich ladies who had been cooped up at home for a long time also went out for a stroll.

In just a short while, Lin Jiangnian saw at least a lot of rich and noble women with outstanding looks and good temperament. They were obviously daughters of famous families in Beijing.

Unfortunately, although these daughters of noble families and officials have good temperament, few of them are good-looking in terms of appearance.

To be precise, there are not many women that Lin Jiangnian likes.

In addition, he can also see some women who are boldly dressed and gorgeous, and exude a worldly temperament in their every move.

The orioles and swallows are dazzling!

Lin Jiangnian took a leisurely walk while enjoying the scenery.

After dealing with Zhao Changyuan, Lin Jiangnian's plan in Beijing was almost completed. The New Year was just a few days away, and Beijing was immersed in the joy of the New Year. Lin Jiangnian, who was free, naturally had time to deal with other personal matters.

For example... to meet Miss Zhao!

A few days ago, Zhao Xi suddenly came to visit. Before leaving, she played a trick on Lin Jiangnian and slipped him a note.

The content of the note was very simple, asking Lin Jiangnian to come to Nanhu for a cruise today and host a banquet to thank him.

Something was wrong with the note!

It felt a bit sneaky and exciting!

Why did they choose such a place to host a banquet?

Or were they alone together?

Something was wrong!

Something was wrong with this Miss Zhao!

As a gentleman, Lin Jiangnian naturally planned to take a good look at this kind of behavior... What tricks did this woman want to play? !

Not long after, Lin Jiangnian had leisurely strolled to the place agreed with Miss Zhao. Miss Zhao had not arrived yet. Lin Jiangnian looked around and felt bored. He just found a seat and sat down.

While enjoying the scenery, he was thinking about the current situation in the capital.

The third prince was eyeing him covetously, and his intention to seize the throne had been exposed. There will be chaos in the capital soon, and this is probably what Lin Hengzhong wants to remind Lin Jiangnian.

On the other hand, Lin Jiangnian's plan to enter the capital this time is to cancel the engagement with the princess.

Lin Hengzhong's proposal is indeed good. Marrying the princess back to the Lin Wang Mansion can indeed allow the Lin Wang Mansion to have one more master-level expert in the future.

However, Lin Jiangnian does not have the confidence to control Li Piaomiao!

One carelessness is likely to lead a wolf into the house...

Lin Jiangnian will not joke about the Lin family's foundation, and the court is definitely not doing charity. The emperor will not give him a princess for no reason!

A princess cannot be exchanged for any loyalty.

From ancient times to the present, all marriages have not played any substantial role.

Therefore, breaking off the engagement is Lin Jiangnian's best choice.

However, now that the emperor does not show up and is always in seclusion, Lin Jiangnian's plan to break off the engagement has been delayed indefinitely.

This is not good or bad for Lin Jiangnian, but he always feels very strange.

What happened to the emperor?

The situation in the court has become like this, but the emperor still hasn't come out. Is he really addicted to cultivating immortality and not caring about the country?

This is very unusual!

Is the emperor making a big move, or... is he dead? !

Thinking of this possibility, Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes.

No one has seen the emperor for half a year.

The emperor is in seclusion and doesn't see anyone. The only person who can communicate with the emperor is the eunuch Chen Zhao in the palace.

He is the only one who can meet the emperor and convey the emperor's will...

If the emperor is dead, then Chen Zhao is probably the biggest suspect!

At this moment, Lin Jiangnian suddenly remembered that Zhiyuan had told him... Lin Hengzhong once said that Chen Zhao was not simple!

A eunuch can be evaluated by Lin Hengzhong as not simple.

Indeed, he is not simple!

After careful thinking, there are indeed many doubts.

Lin Jiangnian's eyes condensed slightly. If he had the chance, he would like to meet this Chen Zhao.

Let's see what his origins are.

And...

I promised Zhao Xi before that I would assassinate Chen Zhao, but now it seems that things may not be so easy!

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian sighed. At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly came from not far away.

"His Royal Highness Prince Lin?!"

Here he comes!

Hearing this familiar voice, Lin Jiangnian subconsciously looked up.

I've been waiting for a long time, and he's finally here!

Looking up, a beautiful figure soon appeared in his sight.

She was tall, wearing a plain long skirt, and a snow-white mink coat. She had an outstanding temperament, cold and elegant. On her delicate and delicate face, there was a bit of surprise and surprise, looking at him without blinking.

The moment he saw Zhao Xi, Lin Jiangnian's eyes were slightly stunned.

He seemed to be amazed by the dress of this Miss Zhao today, but soon, when his eyes fell on the figure next to Zhao Xi. Lin Jiangnian was stunned, with a look of surprise and astonishment on his face.

"The eldest princess?!"

Yes!

Right beside Zhao Xi, Li Piaomiao, dressed in a white dress, stood there expressionlessly, her eyes coldly falling on him, as if she was also a little surprised, and was quietly looking at her. There was no emotion on her fair and delicate face.

Standing with Zhao Xi, the two looked like a pair of sisters, very eye-catching.

Lin Jiangnian looked at the two people who appeared in front of him, stunned for a long time, and a suspicious look appeared on his face.

What's going on?

Didn't they agree to have a private rendezvous in Nanhu?

What's the matter, she brought someone with her?

And brought the eldest princess with her?

Why don't you bring anyone else, but her?

Look... is this appropriate?

"..."

Lin Jiangnian suddenly felt like he had been cheated!

He originally thought that Zhao Xi would ask him to go out today, and at most he would bring Xiaoyue with him. In Lin Jiangnian's eyes, a master and servant pair would naturally have no pressure and could handle them easily.

But who could have expected that Zhao Xi would bring Li Piaomiao with him? !

What on earth does she want to do? !

For a moment, Lin Jiangnian was on guard. His suspicious eyes fell on Zhao Xi's face, but he saw Zhao Xi blinking wildly and winking at him.

"Your Highness, what a coincidence, why are you here today?!"

Zhao Xi's face was full of surprise and surprise.

Lin Jiangnian was stunned for a moment. After hearing Zhao Xi's words and seeing her winking expression, he quickly understood what was happening!

The eldest princess is an unknowing third party?

For a moment, a look of surprise appeared on Lin Jiangnian's face: "Yes, why are you here too?"

"What a coincidence?!"

"..."

The two looked at each other and understood instantly.

Everything is left unsaid.

Zhao Xi breathed a deep sigh of relief and blinked at him again: "Yes, Miao Miao and I came to Nanhu Lake for a cruise today to enjoy the scenery. I didn't expect to meet His Highness here. I wonder why His Highness is here?"

Lin Jiangnian's expression remained unchanged: "I saw that the weather was nice today, so I went out to do some errands and take a walk. Unexpectedly, I met you two... What a coincidence!"

"yes!"

There was a half-smile on Zhao Xi's delicate face: "Isn't this just a coincidence? It's rare to meet him, and I haven't seen your highness for a while. In this case, why don't you go on a cruise with us to enjoy the scenery and have a good time together? ?”

Zhao Xi took advantage of the situation and extended the invitation.

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

What on earth does this woman want to do?

"Isn't this not appropriate?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and then at the eldest princess beside her.

The eldest princess didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.

"Sister Piaomiao, what do you think?"

Zhao Xi turned to look at Li Miaomiao beside him and chuckled: "It's rare to meet His Highness. Since everyone is here, why not get together?"

The eldest princess had no expression on her face, and her cold eyes swept over the two of them. After a moment, Qing Leng said: "Whatever."

"Look, sister Piaomiao has agreed!"

Zhao Xi looked at Lin Jiangnian with a smile: "His Royal Highness, you won't refuse, right?"

For some reason, looking at Zhao Xi's narrow smile, Lin Jiangnian always felt that she was not holding it back.

He glanced at Li Pianmiao and saw that her expression was as usual. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Since Miss Zhao and Her Royal Highness the Princess have warmly invited me, I will be disrespectful to refuse!"

"Excuse me!"

"..."

South Lake, in the middle of the lake!

Calm and calm.

On a large ship, there were many talented people and beauties gathered together with feasting and feasting.

Some scholars who had drunk too much wine stood on the deck and recited poems and poems, venting their depressed dissatisfaction and longing for the country.

In the middle of the ship, on the third floor, private room!

Lin Jiangnian's steps slowed down a little and fell behind. Zhao Xi on the other side also took a step back as if he had a tacit understanding.

"What do you want to do?"

Lin Jiangnian raised his head and glanced at the cold white figure in front of him, and asked in a low voice.

"What do you think?"

Zhao Xi turned his head, blinked his eyes innocently, and smiled softly.

Seeing that Lin Jiangnian didn't speak, the smile on her face became even brighter. He paused suddenly, leaned close to Lin Jiangnian's ear, breathed out softly, and spoke in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Why, your fiancée is here, are you scared?"

"..."
