Chapter 475 The Existence of the Third Person

The courtyard was quiet,

The spring sunshine lazily fell in the courtyard, a scene full of spring.

Jinxiu was in a daze for a long time, and when she came back to her senses, she looked up and noticed that An Ning was staring at her not far away.

Although there was no expression on An Ning's little face, the two of them were twin sisters, fighting and quarreling on weekdays. But many times, they could understand each other's meaning with just one look.

And Jinxiu also saw something from An Ning's eyes...

"What are you looking at me for?!"

Jinxiu spoke first, breaking the silence.

There was a little guilty in her tone.

I don't know why.

An Ning still looked at her expressionlessly, without saying a word.

Being stared at by An Ning like this, Jinxiu felt more and more guilty.

She looked away, no longer looking at An Ning, and began to change the subject: "Tell me, where did the princess and the prince go?"

No response.

"The princess actually left us two this time and went out secretly with His Highness... It's very wrong!"

In the past, when the princess traveled, she would at least bring Jinxiu or An Ning with her. But this time, the princess didn't bring anyone with her.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is... The princess went out with His Highness!

This is very interesting!

The princess and His Highness, have a secret?

As if thinking of something, Jinxiu's eyes gradually lit up: "Hey, do you think our princess has already had some thoughts about His Highness..."

"Have you had any thoughts?"

As this thought emerged, Jinxiu thought more and more that it was possible.

She could feel that her princess' attitude towards His Highness had changed. Especially on this trip south, the princess and His Highness often spent time together alone, and the two of them were often alone in the room...'healing'?

Although His Highness was helping his own princess heal, didn't His Highness and his own princess have any other things happen during the healing?

Besides, if it was 'healing', there would inevitably be some physical contact. For her own princess, such a thing was something she never dared to think about in the past.

But now her princess did not resist, but got closer and closer to His Highness. Today, she even left her and An Ning, and the two went out for a tryst alone...

In Jinxiu's opinion, this is not a tryst, what is it?

In this case, doesn't it mean that her princess has begun to... something with His Highness?

Facing Jinxiu's sudden excitement and speculation, An Ning just looked at her expressionlessly.

"Boring."

She was not interested in this.

But for some reason, her little head also subconsciously associated it with whether the princess really had... with His Highness.

If that was the case, wouldn't her princess be... the Crown Prince's Consort?

Then, would she... have to see His Highness every day in the future?

When this thought came to her mind, An Ning was inexplicably a little uneasy.

She hurriedly shook her head in a panic and stopped thinking about it.

"Alas, I don't know where the princess and His Highness went to have a tryst..."

Jinxiu sighed lightly, her eyes dim.

The journey from the capital to the south was quite boring. After finally arriving in Xunyang City, Jinxiu wanted to go out for a walk, but when she remembered the princess's instructions, she gave up the idea.

As she continued to sigh, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard.

"Princess?!"

Jinxiu's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, and she stood up excitedly. An Ning, who was in a daze under the eaves, also came back to her senses and turned her head to look, but saw only one figure coming into the courtyard.

Lin Jiangnian.

The princess was not seen.

"Your Highness?!"

Jinxiu glanced behind Lin Jiangnian and soon showed doubts: "Where is the princess?"

"Your princess has something to do and will be back later."

Lin Jiangnian spoke.

Although it was not clear where Li Piaomiao went, it must be related to what Lin Jiangnian said before.

Lin Jiangnian waited for a while, and Li Piaomiao had not returned yet, so he came back first.

"Something?"

Jinxiu was a little confused. What happened to the princess? ,

However, she still nodded, and when she looked up again, she saw Lin Jiangnian staring at him with a half-smile, and his eyes seemed to have deep meaning.

Jinxiu seemed to recall what happened last night and this morning, and her face immediately became a little hot and shy, and she subconsciously looked away in panic.

"I, I'll go back to my room first!"

Jinxiu turned around and wanted to escape.

"Go, go."

Lin Jiangnian did not stop her, turned his head to look at An Ning on the other side of the eaves, and said with a smile: "It's just right, I'll chat with An Ning."

Jinxiu's leg, which had just taken a step, suddenly retracted.

Turning around, she suddenly stared at Lin Jiangnian, her eyes full of vigilance and shame.

Having known Lin Jiangnian for so long, how could she not know the routine of this prince.

He clearly did it on purpose... deliberately used An Ning to threaten her!

But Jinxiu had to be threatened by him!

If she left now, and Lin Jiangnian was left alone with An Ning, who knew what would happen!

With An Ning's silly personality, she will definitely be eaten up by His Highness...

How could she let the two of them be alone together?

Thinking of this, Jinxiu immediately looked alert and shouted: "No!"

While speaking, she quickly walked to An Ning's side and pulled her to leave together.

"Come with me, I have something to tell you!"

At this time, An Ning was still a little confused.

When she heard Lin Jiangnian say that he wanted to chat with her, An Ning was still thinking about what His Highness wanted to say to her. She was suddenly pulled by Jinxiu and her steps staggered slightly.

"What are you doing?"

"Don't ask questions, come with me."

Jinxiu didn't say anything and quickly ran away with An Ning, who was still in a daze.

Lin Jiangnian, who was left in the courtyard, watched this scene with interest.

This An Ning was indeed Jinxiu's Achilles' heel. She would get angry and upset when she was mentioned. In this way...

It seems, easy to control? !

...

On the other side, Jinxiu took An Ning back to the room and closed the door. Then, he stared at her with a serious face.

An Ning was still a little dazed at this time, staring at Jinxiu, who looked irritable and solemn in front of her.

"What, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong?!"

Jinxiu said angrily: "What's wrong?"

"Don't you see that His Highness has his eyes on you, and you are still standing there stupidly."

"What? Are you waiting for the sheep to fall into the tiger's mouth?"

Jinxiu looked like she was disappointed in him, anxious and angry.

And An Ning was still a little confused. She didn't understand what was going on.

But, she was not a fool after all!

When she saw Jinxiu's appearance at this time, she gradually remembered what happened just now, and seemed to realize what Jinxiu wanted to say. Without saying a word, she just looked at Jinxiu quietly.

"Don't you know that the prince has bad intentions towards you? He covets your body and wants to play with you..."

"You must not be fooled, or you will have nowhere to cry..."

"Why are you in a daze? I am doing this for your own good. You must remember that you must never be alone with the prince... Why are you looking at me like this?!"

Jinxiu was originally teaching An Ning a lesson with regret, trying to let her know the horror of being alone with the prince.

However, An Ning did not speak, just staring at her.

Didn't say anything!

But it seemed... she said something else.

Under An Ning's gaze, Jinxiu, who was originally so confident, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

Inexplicably...

Guilty!

"What are you looking at me for?!"

Jinxiu said with a straight face: "Did you hear what I said?"

"I'm doing this for your own good!"

An Ning looked at her expressionlessly: "You lied."

"How did I lie?"

An Ning thought for a moment: "His Highness is not that kind of person."

Jinxiu was stunned, and then her eyes became more alert: "How do you know he is not that kind of person?!"

What kind of magic potion did that guy give An Ning, how come even An Ning started to speak for him?

Something is wrong!

There is a big problem!

An Ning did not explain Jinxiu's problem, but still said expressionlessly: "He is not."

The tone was even a little stubborn.

Jinxiu: "..."

Her heart sank suddenly.

It's over!

"Did he tell you something?"

"No."

"Did His Highness deceive you with sweet words?!"

"No."

"Tell me the truth...Do you like His Highness?!"

"..."

An Ning was silent and did not speak.

Jinxiu felt her head buzzing. Why didn't she say anything?

Could it be... that she really fell in love with him?

She was on guard, but An Ning still fell for her?

Just as Jinxiu opened her eyes wide in disbelief. An Ning looked at her with a cold face and said expressionlessly: "You are the one who likes His Highness!"

"I didn't..."

Jinxiu subconsciously denied: "I didn't."

"You did."

"No."

"Yes."

"No!"

"..."

An Ning stopped talking, looked at Jinxiu expressionlessly, and turned to walk outside.

"Where are you going?!" Jinxiu asked hurriedly.

She was worried that An Ning was going to find Lin Jiangnian.

"To find the princess."

An Ning walked to the door without looking back, pushed it open, and walked out.

Just as she reached the door, An Ning looked back at Jinxiu in the room. Staring for a moment, and then, word by word, "You, must like His Highness!"

After that, without waiting for Jinxiu to quibble, An Ning held the sword and left the room without looking back.

Jinxiu was left standing in the room, with a blush on her beautiful face.

"I, I didn't..."

Jinxiu murmured to herself, still wanting to refute. But she gradually lost her voice halfway through her words.

After a while, Jinxiu was inexplicably angry.

"Who, who likes him?!"

"I, I am your sister, how can you talk to your sister like this?!"

Jinxiu's face seemed to be even redder, and her fair skin was painted with a layer of rouge, which was breathtakingly beautiful.

After being stunned in the room for a long time, Jinxiu finally came back to her senses slightly, with mixed emotions, and then a little angry.

"It's all your fault!"

"It's all his fault!"

"He promised not to tease An Ning, but he went back on his word!"

Jinxiu, who had made up her mind, went out angrily, ready to find Lin Jiangnian to settle the score.

...

On the other side, not long ago.

In the courtyard, in the room.

"Miss, tonight is the best opportunity, you must seize it!"

In the room, two figures were sneaking together.

Xiao Lu looked at her young lady and began to talk about her plan: "Wait a minute, I will sneak into your room while you are away and put the medicine in your tea..."

"When your highness comes back, you will find an excuse to stay in your room tonight and find a way to make him drink the tea, and then delay as long as you can..."

"The effect of this medicine will take effect soon, and the effect is very good. Anyway, miss, you can find a way to delay it until the effect of the medicine takes effect..."

"When the time comes, great things will happen!"

"Miss, have you written it all down?!"

In the room, Xu Lan's face turned red with embarrassment, and she felt anxious and nervous: "Really, is it really possible?"

"Of course, don't worry, miss."

"No, you won't be discovered, right?"

"This medicine is colorless and odorless and will never be discovered!"

"But, but..."

"Stop it, Miss, if you don't work hard, you won't even be able to be a concubine. Then I will suffer with you!"

Seeing that his young lady was still hesitating, Xiao Lu immediately made the final decision for her young lady: "That's it. Miss, just find a way to make His Highness drink the tea, and leave the rest to the slave..."

"When the time comes, my servant will also be guarding the door to ensure that Miss's work is completed without being disturbed by anyone. I will also keep an eye on your situation, Miss, and will never let anything happen to you, Miss..."

"I have everything!"

Xiao Lu patted her swollen chest, with an attitude of making sure she was covered by her slave.

"Well, then..."

Under the temptation of her maid, Xu Lan finally made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and decided to risk it all!

"Miss, just wait for the good news from this slave!"

"..."

In the small courtyard, warm sunshine fills the air.

It was quiet all around.

It can be said that He Jinqun spent a lot of money to entertain Lin Jiangnian this time. He took out the best place in the prefect's mansion and didn't let anyone come to disturb him.

The courtyard was deserted. At this moment, a sneaky figure appeared. He looked around indifferently, and after making sure there was no one around, he quickly walked towards the front under the eaves.

As he walked, he continued to observe his surroundings. Not long after, he stopped at the door of one of the rooms, and once again made sure that no one was around, he quietly opened the door and walked into the room.

In a cold and dark room.

Xiaolu looked around the room. His Highness hadn't come back yet, so it was the best time.

With bright eyes, she tiptoed to the table not far away.

There is a pot of tea on the table.

Xiao Lu carefully opened the teapot, then took out a small bag of powder from her arms and carefully poured it into the teapot.

After pouring half of it, I felt that the weight was not enough, so I poured it all in at once.

As for my young lady, if she can't handle it then... doesn't she still have herself? !

Xiao Lu blushed and quickly shook the teapot. Soon, the powder in the teapot dissolved in the water and disappeared.

The little green eyes were bright, and he was so excited that his breathing was a little short.

She quickly cleaned up the scene with trembling hands and put the teapot back to its place. After confirming again that nothing was wrong, she carefully exited the room.

Then, carefully close the door. Then, he quickly lowered his head and fled the courtyard with a guilty conscience.

Feeling guilty about being a thief, Xiao Lu was extremely nervous. What Xiao Lu didn't notice at all was that a figure happened to appear at the entrance to the other side of the courtyard not far away, taking in the entire scene in front of her.
