Chapter 96: You Can Only Die in Prince Xuan's Mansion
Ximen Jingxuan was silent for a moment after hearing Leng Yanqiu's words.
Although he threw Lin Xiner into the water out of anger, it could indeed alleviate her charm. As for the arrow wound, recovery would be slower after being soaked in water, but she would eventually recover.
To be Princess Xuan, you have to accept his cruelty. You can never have your cake and eat it too.
Could it be that she wanted him to make his own antidote to save her?
When Ximen Jingxuan learned that Lin Xiner had actually been poisoned when she was injured, he understood that the problem was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Leng Yanqiu said that the poison in Lin Xiner can be transferred to the other person through sex. This is one of the Leng family's common poisoning methods, borrowing other people's bodies to use poison on the target person.
From this point of view, the opponent's target is actually him, Ximen Jingxuan.
If he, who was deliberately led to Fengxue Tower, had a sexual relationship with Lin Xin'er in order to help Lin Xin'er detoxify from the poison, then he would inevitably be poisoned again without knowing it.
The other party had calculated every step of the poisoning very clearly, but he had not calculated the result. Ximen Jingxuan was ruthless to Lin Xiner to the point of cruelty.
However, Ximen Jingxuan still didn't understand. How could the assassin in Prince Xuan's Mansion target Yan'er first?
"Are you from the Leng family again?" Ximen Jingxuan asked.
"No." Leng Yanqiu replied decisively. He had asked Leng Muran that this matter had nothing to do with them. Leng Muran just looked at Lin Xiner and looked pitiful, so he took action to save her.
"Who was the woman who took Lin Xiner away?" Ximen Jingxuan asked again. Although he left Fengxue Tower, it would be easy to know what happened after that. If she could bring Lin Xiner to Leng Yanqiu, that woman would be
Not ordinary people.
"The daughter of a former servant in my family." Leng Yanqiu said.
He knew that it was impossible to simply say that Leng Muran had nothing to do with the Leng family. Leng Muran was not him. There was Leng Lie and other people behind her. Leng Yanqiu didn't want to tell Ximen Jingxuan the truth. He could stop Leng Muran.
However, he could not personally hand over the Leng family members who still hoped for restoration to the Ximen royal family. No matter how much Leng Lie hated him, he still had to protect his relatives.
Ximen Jingxuan knew that when Leng Yanqiu was a child, he lived in the capital with his parents, and was under the eyes of the royal family. There were also some servants in the palace. But after Leng Yanqiu's parents passed away one after another, he was dismissed
Everyone moved to the bamboo forest courtyard alone, and later took Wuyou in. Therefore, it was possible that Leng Yanqiu was a servant.
"Don't blame every drug-related incident on the Leng family." Leng Yanqiu continued, "There are not many people left in the Leng family now. It is not easy to arrange an operation. I gave it to you a few days ago.
Poison's plan has been destroyed by me, they are unable to take action again in a short period of time, and this plan seems to be very strict, beyond their ability."
"I'm going to see Lin Xiner." Ximen Jingxuan said and walked towards the house where Lin Xiner was.
There was no news from Lin Keer, and the poisoning move was a series of tricks. Ximen Jingxuan couldn't deny whether this was a huge conspiracy against him, and he didn't even know who the enemy was.
Ximen Jingxuan pushed the door open and walked in. Leng Muran had already left, leaving Lin Xiner lying alone on the bed.
Hearing the noise, Lin Xiner opened her eyes and saw that it was Ximen Jingxuan. She didn't want to say anything and closed her eyes again.
"Who is the person who kidnapped you?" Ximen Jingxuan asked, standing in front of the bed. His voice was not high, but he could hear it very clearly in the night before dawn.
Lin Xiner kept silent as if she was angry. If she could talk to Ximen Jingxuan calmly after such torture, even if Ximen Jingxuan did not doubt her true purpose, she would not be able to explain it to herself.
The hand hidden under the quilt unconsciously grasped the dagger under him tightly.
"Tell me everything you see and know, and I will let you return to Plum Blossom Court to recuperate." Ximen Jingxuan said.
Lin Xiner sneered secretly. He knew that Ximen Jingxuan could not find Lin Keer, so he wanted to find clues about her being "abducted" to Fengxue Tower. For Lin Keer, the arrogant Prince Xuan could actually talk about it.
Soft words?
Lin Ke'er is so charming?
Thinking of this, a smile overflowed from Lin Xiner's lips, which was sarcasm from the bottom of her heart.
"Are you actually smiling?" Ximen Jingxuan narrowed his eyes. He seemed to see a smile on the face of Lin Xiner who was struggling in the water. Her smile appeared when it shouldn't have appeared, and it was for him.
A silent protest?
The more anxious he is to find Lin Ke'er, the less Ximen Jingxuan can be as calm as usual, and can be indifferent to everything, and the more annoyed he becomes by the resistance in front of him.
Lin Xiner felt a pulling force on her chest, and Ximen Jingxuan grabbed her up while she was lying on the bed.
"Say." Ximen Jingxuan dragged Lin Xiner to spit out a word, and the soft blowing on Lin Xiner's face actually made her feel painful.
"Jingxuan."
At the right time, Leng Yanqiu walked in, glanced at Lin Xiner who still closed her eyes and said nothing, and said to Ximen Jingxuan, "The flesh of the wound on her back has festered. Although it did not hurt her vitals, the poisoning and water immersion made her
Her situation has become very bad. It is already difficult to survive. Do you still want her to obey you? Maybe she has now figured out that it is much better to live than to be a princess, so she is eager to be kicked out of the Plum Blossom Garden.
Stay far away from you."
"Don't think about it!" Ximen Jingxuan waved his hand, and Lin Xiner fell on the bed, touching the wound again, and felt a heart-wrenching pain.
"The royal family is not a place where you can enter and escape whenever you want. Even if you die, you can only die in Prince Xuan's Mansion."
As soon as Ximen Jingxuan's voice fell, Lin Xiner was picked up again, bypassing Leng Yanqiu, and rushed outside the house.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Xiner held the dagger tightly, hiding it in her sleeve. She could not throw it away anymore. It entrusted a dream of hers, a dream that she had never told anyone.
Although it was just a dream, she also thought that she would have the opportunity to see him again in this life. When he saw her now, when he took over the dagger that he had kept for eight years, what would happen to him? Will he be the same as herself?
Remember that fateful relationship back then?
He gave her the thrill of being protected for the first time, and if he were still alive, would he still remember the little girl who clumsily bandaged his wounds that day?
"Miss?" Yan'er was awakened by the rapid knocking on the door. When she opened the door and saw Lin Xin'er being brought back by Ximen Jingxuan, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
Hasn’t the young lady been lying on the bed the whole time?
Looking back, there was nowhere to see the lady's shadow on the bed. Although it was not bright yet, there was already dim light, and it was possible to see clearly whether there was anyone there.
Yan'er stood stunned at the door of the house, unable to recover for a long time.
