"What are you looking at!" Lin Xiner took the medicine from the shopkeeper's hand and glared at the waiter who was staring at her legs, "So what if I'm lame? We people with leg problems are not as good as you who are in good health.
She looks straight, but is not crooked at all, and can sit upright better than some people!"
"Yes, yes," the shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, believing that Lin Xiner was from Prince Xuan's Mansion, and knowing that people from Prince Xuan's Mansion were not easy to deal with, he let her take the medicine. Even if she didn't pay back the money, it was just a mere gift.
A bottle of medicinal wine, instead of risking offending Prince Xuan's palace, just treat it as a reward for revealing the secrets of the palace.
Yang Chen saw all Lin Xiner's words and deeds. Prince Xuan's reputation was damaged by her deliberately announcing it, but it was quite interesting that Lin Xiner was talking such nonsense.
Yang Chen unconsciously curled his lips slightly, looking at Lin Xiner's back as she returned to Prince Xuan's Mansion, but did not continue to follow her.
Lin Xiner felt that the person who had been following her had left, she slowed down and looked around casually. Where did the fortune teller who was besieged before go?
"Hello!"
Suddenly, someone patted Lin Xiner on the shoulder.
Lin Xiner was slightly shocked and turned her head. She did not expect that a passerby would stop her.
The man blinked at Lin Xiner, and did not move away from the hand he patted on her shoulder. Instead, he put his entire arm on Lin Xiner's shoulder, "Are you a maid from Prince Xuan's Mansion?"
Lin Xiner pushed away the man's hand in disgust and took a few steps forward. The man didn't recognize her, but she already recognized him as the playboy she bumped into in the brothel that day.
He had lost his skin and put on his clothes, but at first glance he was still a street ruffian.
"You were the first to say those heated discussions in the drug store, right?" The man caught up with Lin Xiner and put his hand on Lin Xiner's shoulder again, "You have something wrong with your legs but not your throat, so why are you pretending to be so?
Is the mute here?"
"It's not me." Lin Xiner threw the arm away again. If she was in a quiet and uninhabited place, she would have broken this damn arm long ago. This prodigal son should go to the Palace of Hell to report as soon as possible.
The man didn't care about Lin Xiner's darkened face at all. He pointed at the medicinal wine in her hand and said, "The shopkeeper of the medicine shop said it was the girl who bought the medicinal wine. Look, you are also heading towards Prince Xuan's Mansion, not you."
Who else could it be?”
"It's boring to ask questions knowingly!" Lin Xiner continued walking forward while holding the medicinal wine.
"Huh? I'm quite familiar with Prince Xuan. I didn't know he had such a secret. What else do you know? Tell me about it?" The man looked like he was stalking Lin Xiner, chasing Lin Xiner.
Abandon.
"Are you familiar with Prince Xuan?" Lin Xiner stopped. She remembered what she heard in the brothel. This man was indeed familiar with Ximen Jingxuan.
"That's right." The man said proudly, then looked at Lin Xiner and thought, "For example, I have never seen a maid like you in Prince Xuan's Mansion before. Are you brought here from Southern Xinjiang specially by Prince Xuan?"
Returning to the capital, one of those maids whose legs were broken by him?"
Lin Xiner didn't expect that this person would explain her identity in such a self-righteous way, so she nodded, "Not bad."
"You still stay in Prince Xuan's Mansion so obediently even after your legs were broken? I think not only Prince Xuan has a quirk, but you also have pain syndrome, right?" The man said, following his own judgment.
"I think if Prince Xuan promised that as long as he broke his leg, he could become his woman and be named his concubine, I guess there wouldn't be a few people who would be willing to harm themselves, right?" Lin Xiner said with a smile.
"Woman, ugh -" the man shook his head slightly and let out an exaggerated sigh, then stretched out his hand to Lin Xiner again, pressed her shoulders, and arched his eyebrows, "Let me guess, are you
Have you become Prince Xuan’s woman? Is Prince Xuan planning to make you his concubine?”
Lin Xiner had endured it for so many years in the Grand Master's Mansion, and her patience was enough. But when faced with this prodigal son's dirty tricks, she felt that her patience had reached its peak in an instant, and she wanted to explode.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the screams of passers-by, and a frightened carriage came running from a distance and was about to hit it.
When Lin Xiner was thinking about how to avoid this person who was familiar with Prince Xuan, her body was already lifted up and flew towards the roof on one side.
The carriage flew past, and Lin Xiner saw that the driver was none other than Huangfu Yanchong. He came specifically for her.
"It's so dangerous." The man stood on the roof, holding Lin Xiner's waist with one hand and patting his clothes gently with the other.
What a unnecessary move! Lin Xin'er secretly blamed this person for ruining Huangfu Yanchong's plan to contact her, but she had to admit that this person was indeed "saving her".
"You must remember that I saved your life today." The man said after watching the frightened horse run away.
"It's nothing to worry about with so little effort." Lin Xin'er snorted coldly.
"I am a person who is good at asking for credit. If you don't want to repay me, then just have a glass of wine with me now." The man said, without any explanation, he took Lin Xiner and swept away into the distance.
Lengzhai is a quiet and simple courtyard built next to the bamboo forest.
Ximen Jingxuan was sitting in the courtyard. Sitting opposite him was a man dressed in white, with an elegant demeanor and a clean temperament. He was similar in age to Ximen Jingxuan, but even more indifferent than him, as if he only seemed to be silent in this place.
The small courtyard is indifferent to everything outside.
He is Leng Yanqiu, one of the three famous men in the capital. As an orphan from the previous dynasty, he has a proud and upright character. He is upright, yet stubborn and unyielding. He lives at the foot of today's imperial city and does not bow to the Ximen royal family.
, for the sake of the people's livelihood and contentment, and no intention of causing any more trouble for the Leng family, they live alone in this quiet bamboo forest courtyard.
"What kind of medicine was given to me?" Ximen Jingxuan asked, looking at the plate of liquid in Leng Yanqiu's hand that had turned into an unknown color. The raw material of the liquid was the blood taken from his body.
Ximen Jingxuan left Prince Xuan's Mansion early in the morning in order to arrive at Leng's house in time for Leng Yanqiu to determine the origin of the medicine. When he left the Plum Blossom Court of the Wedding Room, he had doubts about Lin Xiner.
Since the medicine had dissipated, Leng Yanqiu took his blood for examination. Before the results came out, news of the situation came from Prince Xuan's Mansion.
Ximen Jingxuan left and came back again, and came to Leng's house again to ask about Leng Yanqiu's results.
"Yes, it is the psychedelic powder from our Leng family. Even if you have strong skills, you will be stunned instantly if you take just a little bit. The average person will not wake up within three hours, but you have the advantage of having strong skills. You can wake up better than ordinary people."
Earlier." Leng Yanqiu said while looking at the plate of liquid.
"So it's your Leng family who is acting secretly again?" Ximen Jingxuan asked.
