Chapter 291 His Royal Highness the Crown Prince

Outside the courtyard.

Jinxiu, dressed in light green brocade, stood under the tree beside the wall, pacing back and forth.

Her hair was messed up by the cold wind, and her breath condensed into a ball in the air. Her delicate face was round and flushed, and her eyes looked at the gate of the courtyard not far away from time to time, wondering what she was thinking.

Occasionally, a few indescribable spirits flashed in those clever eyes.

When the spirit gradually disappeared, it was followed by a bit of boredom.

Princess, what are you talking about with this Prince Lin?

That guy, is he really going to marry the princess?

The princess will definitely not marry him...

But what if the princess agrees?

No, no, the princess is cold and has never been interested in matters between men and women. The princess only has the sword in her eyes. The princess is determined to be the sword fairy who has never been seen before and will never be seen again in the world for hundreds of years. How could she be tempted by a man?

But...

I don't know what she was thinking about, but a few traces of indescribable distress appeared on Jinxiu's sweet face, and her eyes kept looking at the movement at the entrance of the yard.

Until the sound of footsteps came from the entrance of the yard, she moved her eyes away in a panic. Standing under the tree, slightly tilting her head.

Lin Jiangnian walked out of the small courtyard and saw Jinxiu standing under the tree by the wall not far away, staring at the leaves in a daze with her head tilted up.

From a distance, the tall figure standing alone and cold had a somewhat indescribable artistic conception.

As expected of a maid beside the eldest princess, her appearance and temperament were far beyond the reach of those of ordinary families.

But why was she standing in the cold wind staring at a dead tree that was almost completely bald?

"Miss Jinxiu?"

It was not until Lin Jiangnian spoke that Jinxiu, who was standing under the tree, came back to her senses, turned her head, and her beautiful eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian. Then, she subconsciously raised her head slightly, her chin pointed, and snorted lightly.

She seemed to be still angry before.

"Something?"

"What are you doing here?"

Lin Jiangnian walked towards her.

"Where else can I go if not here?"

Jinxiu rolled her eyes at him. She was the princess's maid. She had to stay here when she accompanied the princess out of the palace.

Lin Jiangnian blinked at her, his eyes slightly meaningful: "How about going back to Jiang Mansion with this prince?"

Jinxiu looked a little alert: "Why go to Jiang Mansion?"

"Didn't Miss Jinxiu say that she had nowhere to go?"

Lin Jiangnian said: "In that case, why don't you go back to Jiang Mansion with this prince? Miss Jinxiu doesn't have to worry about having no place to stay."

Go back to Jiang Mansion?

How could she not know what he was thinking?

Jinxiu blushed slightly and gritted her teeth: "Your Highness's kindness is appreciated by the maid... I am the maid of Your Highness, and I can't go anywhere without Your Highness's permission."

Go back to Jiang Mansion?

If she really went back to Jiang Mansion with him, wouldn't the Prince of Lin eat her up?

Or the kind that was stripped clean...

He even dared to have ideas about Her Royal Highness the Princess. He was so audacious and lawless. How could a little maid like her escape his clutches?

"What if your princess agrees?"

Lin Jiangnian stared at Jinxiu's tender face with interest. It was as if she had applied a layer of light rouge, white and rosy, beautiful and charming.

The princess agreed?

How could the princess agree?

Jinxiu subconsciously wanted to deny it, but when she looked up at Lin Jiangnian's eyes, she felt that her momentum seemed to be weaker.

Thinking of this, Jinxiu curled her lips and snorted: "If the princess agrees, as the princess's maid, I should naturally do it."

"Are you serious?" Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows.

Jinxiu was slightly startled, and inexplicably felt a little more uneasy in her heart.

He, wouldn't really have this idea?

Are you kidding?

Wouldn't he really want to tell the princess that he wants her?

Jinxiu's heart beat twice for no apparent reason, and she felt a little panicked.

She avoided Lin Jiangnian's slightly malicious and inexplicably burning gaze, and her voice became much softer: "How dare I disobey the princess's order... Of course it's true."

However, she comforted herself in her heart.

No!

This Prince Lin must be deliberately teasing her. How could he look down on her with so many beautiful maids around him?

Even if he really meant it, the princess would not agree... She has been with the princess for many years and is the one who knows the most secrets of the princess. Even if Prince Lin wants her, the princess will not agree.

Thinking of this, Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

But with it came a sense of inexplicable loss.

Just at this moment, Lin Jiangnian suddenly took two steps towards her and walked in front of her.

The distance between the two of them suddenly shortened.

Jinxiu was startled. Before she could retreat, she saw the Prince of Lin approaching with a breath of heat. The cold air around her seemed to be swallowed up by the heat.

The warm breath approached, as if wrapping her and Lin Jiangnian's face close at hand. Jinxiu's face instantly turned red, and her beautiful eyes were flustered. When she was about to retreat, she saw that the smile on Lin Jiangnian's handsome face became more and more intense.

"What a coincidence, your princess just said that she would give you to this prince!"

As soon as these words came out, Jinxiu's eyes widened.

She was stunned!

Reward?

Princess, said she would give her to the Prince of Lin?

How could this be possible? !

Jinxiu's mind was blank, and her beautiful face was full of confusion.

At the same time, there was also a deep... suspicion.

Did the Prince of Lin deliberately lie to her?

Before Jinxiu began to doubt, she heard Lin Jiangnian's voice again.

"If you don't believe it, go and ask your princess later."

After this was said again, Jinxiu was completely confused!

Let her ask the princess?

He said so, could it be false?

If it was a lie, she only needed to ask the princess and it would be exposed. But now that Prince Lin spoke so confidently, it clearly didn't seem like a fabrication?

Could it be...

"You just said this yourself. As long as your princess agrees, you will be fine."

Looking at Jinxiu who was confused at the moment, Lin Jiangnian moved closer again and said with a smile: "Put on a good packing, and next time I will take you back to Jiang Mansion!"

"From now on, you are my personal maid."

"Don't worry, I will let you sleep with me first when I return to Jiang Mansion."

"..."

After scaring Jinxiu severely, Lin Jiangnian left with satisfaction. The remaining Jinxiu's delicate body was stiff and stunned, her face flushed, and the blush spread from her delicate white neck to her crystal clear earlobes.

As the cold wind blew, it seemed to get hotter.

Her beautiful eyes stared at Lin Jiangnian's departing back, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Princess, did you really give her to Prince Lin?

Really, really have to go to Jiang Mansion to serve him?

The first, the first night you have to sleep with him? !

Jinxiu's beautiful face showed a look of horror.

This, so fast?

She, she is not mentally prepared at all?

Wait...

Did the princess really not want her?

Jinxiu suddenly came to her senses, and immediately ran all the way to the courtyard, ran into the courtyard, and ran outside the pavilion.

In the pavilion.

The eldest princess in a white dress was still sitting there quietly, as if she had not moved from beginning to end.

"Princess?!"

Jinxiu's face was flushed, her breathing was rapid, and her voice was stuttering.

"What's wrong?"

Li Piaomiao's eyes fell on Jinxiu's face outside the pavilion and spoke softly.

"Princess..."

Jinxiu's face was full of grievance, shy and panic: "You, you really want to give me to the prince of Lin?"

"Send?"

Li Piaomiao glanced at her with cold eyes, as if realizing something: "What did he say to you?"

"He, he said that Princess, you don't want me anymore, and you want me to be given to him last time. He also said, he also said... he will take me back to Jiang Mansion next time."

Jinxiu's face was full of grievance and resentment: "Princess, you, you really don't want me?"

After listening to this, the eldest princess stared at Jinxiu outside the pavilion for a moment, and suddenly said: "Are you willing?"

"No, I don't want to?!"

Jinxiu shook her head quickly, and said firmly: "I want to follow the princess, wherever the princess goes, I will go!"

The eldest princess was silent for a while, and said: "He just asked me for you, and I did agree."

As soon as these words came out, Jinxiu widened her beautiful eyes, full of panic.

But soon, the princess shook her head again: "But you have to be willing."

Jinxiu was stunned again: "What, what do you mean?"

"I just promised that if you are willing, you can indeed go back to Jiang Mansion with him."

The princess glanced at her and said, "If you don't want to, he can't take you away."

Jinxiu was stunned and thought for a moment before she gradually understood what this meant.

She has to be willing, then it's okay?

The princess agreed, but she needs to be willing, and the princess will not force her.

In this case...

Did His Royal Highness the Prince of Lin deliberately lie to her just now?

Is he deliberately scaring her?

Thinking of this, Jinxiu felt relieved, but became more and more ashamed.

He must have done it on purpose!

The princess slowly retracted her gaze and said calmly: "Jinxiu, you have been with me for quite a while, and you will get married sooner or later."

"You have handled too many affairs for me over the years and offended many people. Those people will not let you go when you leave the palace in the future."

"If you are interested in him, I don't mind fulfilling your wish... Although the prince of Lin is unstable and has a bad record, the protection of the Lin Palace is enough to keep you safe for the rest of your life."

Hearing the princess' words, Jinxiu came back to her senses and knew that the princess was planning a way out for her. She felt grateful and inexplicably emotional.

She was the princess's maid and the person the princess trusted the most. If she really left the palace one day, those spies planted around the princess would naturally not let her go.

The Lin Palace was indeed a very good place of protection for her.

But...

Jinxiu gritted her teeth and shook her head gently: "Princess, I won't go anywhere. I only want to follow you and I'd rather not marry in this life."

The eldest princess was silent for a while: "But if I'm gone one day, there will be no place for you in this palace."

Jinxiu's expression changed slightly: "How could it be? Princess, you are in good health now, there will be no problem!"

The eldest princess said after a while: "The practice of this palace is too against the sky, what will happen in the future... No one dares to assert."

Jinxiu seemed to think of something, her face was slightly pale, and she shook her head quickly: "No, it's just a legend after all... No one dares to be sure that it will..."

Just here, Jinxiu couldn't say anything.

She knew very well that the princess was walking a path that no one had ever walked before!

The princess's martial arts talent was amazing, almost the top genius in hundreds of years, far more terrifying than the rumors from the outside world.

The young princess was sent to Kendo to be trained as a disciple. In just a few years, the princess showed amazing martial arts talent and became the youngest top master in Kendo in a hundred years.

Some people even asserted that within ten years, Kendo might give birth to a "Sword Saint".

However, just when the princess's future was bright, she suddenly gave up the original skills she had learned and started all over again.

And this time, the princess chose a martial arts path that no one had ever walked.

The princess's choice seemed to be correct. In just two years, the princess once again stepped into the realm of the second-grade Tianxuan.

This is a realm that many amazing geniuses have found difficult to cross in their entire lives!

Jinxiu did not dare to assert where the princess's future achievements would end?

However, no one has ever experienced the path that the princess has taken, and with the terrifying speed of martial arts improvement, the sequelae are also extremely obvious...

The eldest princess in the pavilion looked indifferent: "This palace has long anticipated it. As for what will happen in the future, I don't know, but it's always good to have multiple escape routes..."

She looked at Jinxiu and said: "This capital may be in chaos in the future. If something really happens to me one day, it's okay for you to go to him."

Jinxiu shook her head, her face pale, and gritted her teeth: "Jinxiu just wants to stay with the princess. Wherever the princess goes, I will go!"

"What if I die one day?"

Jinxiu's eyes were firm: "I will be buried with the princess!"

Silence.

After a long time, the eldest princess spoke softly, as if sighing: "Why do you have to... Don't you like him?"

Jinxiu paused and lowered her eyes: "Jinxiu doesn't want to leave the princess."

There was another silence.

After a while, the eldest princess in the pavilion slowly stood up and picked up the "Silver Moon" on the table.

"Let's go."

"Princess, are you going back to the palace?"

"To the East Palace!"

...

East Palace.

The antique pavilion corridors and the green flowers and plants in the courtyard.

Although it is winter, there is a bit of early spring scenery.

Sitting at the window beside the courtyard is a young man in brocade clothes. He is about thirty years old, wearing brocade dragon robes, with a dignified appearance, handsome eyebrows, and a noble aura from head to toe.

However, the young man's face is a little pale, as if he is unwell, and looks quite haggard.

"Cough cough!"

The cough sounded, and the young man retracted his gaze and frowned.

Seeing this, the servants beside him hurried forward: "Your Highness, it's cold outside. You are weak, go back to your room first."

"No problem."

Li Ci Ning waved his hand: "This little cold is not a problem."

He stared at the scenery in the courtyard, seemed to be a little nostalgic, and murmured with some emotion: "I don't know if I can see the beginning of next spring..."

But just after he finished speaking, he coughed violently twice.

The servants beside him were frightened.

"Forget it, go back to your room."

Li Ci Ning retracted his gaze, shook his head gently, turned around and prepared to go back to his room.

Just then, the voice of the servant came from outside the pavilion.

"The princess is here!"

Li Ci Ning stopped: "Is Piao Miao here?"

The next second, a figure dressed in white clothes as white as snow, like winter frost slowly appeared.

"Piao Miao!"

Li Ci Ning saw his sister, and a doting smile quickly appeared on his face: "Why are you here?!"
