The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Lin Ze's whole body stiffened instantly, his pupils widening.

Why is it that he is the one who suffers even though it is the prince who is jealous?

Does the prince want to fight him for a few moves, or is he simply angry and wants to find someone to beat up?

Linze felt that the latter was more likely.

He said hesitantly, "Your Highness, why don't you let Ji Bei fight you for a few moves? He's better at martial arts than me, and he'll definitely give you a beating... and a satisfying training session."

Lin Ze didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt when he said this, but Xie Nanyuan refused to cooperate.

Xie Nanyuan glanced at him coldly and said, "Don't waste time."

Seeing that Xie Nanyuan had made up his mind and would not change it, Lin Ze went forward with a sad face and clenched fists.

Screams and wails intertwined above the training ground.

I don’t know how long it took, but with an over-the-shoulder throw, Lin Ze was thrown heavily to the ground, and he felt like his internal organs were about to be shaken out.

Xie Nanyuan still had some sense. As Lin Ze was his follower, it was not good for him to have injuries on his face, so he attacked those parts of his body that were not easily noticed.

Xie Nanyuan took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He slowly exhaled, and the anger that came from nowhere in his heart dissipated a lot.

"Cough cough cough...hiss——" Lin Ze staggered to his feet while rubbing his butt, feeling severe pain all over his body.

He felt extremely frustrated and couldn't help muttering, "What's the point of beating me? If you have the guts, go find Miss Shen. You only dare to hide behind me and secretly get jealous and angry. Really..."

Linze's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, but Xie Nanyuan had excellent hearing and heard everything he said.

In an instant, Xie Nanyuan's face, which had just relaxed his brows, darkened again. He stopped in his tracks as he was about to go to the study, and turned back to Lin Ze.

"Your Majesty?"

Linze was a little confused as to why Xie Nanyuan had returned.

Then he saw a strange arc on the corner of Xie Nanyuan's lips, his deep pupils staring at him motionlessly, his thin lips slightly parted, but the words he said were without a trace of warmth.

"Come on!"

Lin Ze, who just thought he was free: "..."

-

The main gate of Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Shen Qionghua got off the carriage and walked inside with Shaoyao.

Turning the corner, a tall man in a purple robe came towards me.

Shen Qionghua paused, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but this road was the only way to Yunmengxuan, and the other party had already seen her, so she couldn't turn around and leave, so she could only bite the bullet and move forward.

"Prince." Shen Qionghua squatted slightly to salute, and then was about to move forward, but an arm suddenly blocked her way.

Shen Qionghua was startled and suddenly adjusted her center of gravity and fell backwards before falling into the other person's arms. Shaoyao, who was standing behind her, supported her in time, thus avoiding her embarrassment.

"What does this mean, Prince?" Shen Qionghua said angrily, looking straight at Zhou Jinlin with a pair of clear eyes.

Zhou Jinlin smiled, his peach blossom eyes full of teasing.

"Don't be angry, cousin Shen. I was just joking. I haven't seen you for a long time and I want to catch up with you."

During the royal hunting trip, Marquis Yongning, as an important official of the royal family, followed the emperor to the temporary palace, but Zhou Jinlin stayed behind to help Marquis Yongning handle military affairs in the western suburbs camp. He only had time today to return to the marquis' mansion.

"I don't think the prince and I have any past connection." Shen Qionghua said in a cold voice.

"Alas, cousin Shen, you are wrong. To reminisce about the past, we must first get to know each other well before we can reminisce about the past."

"Mother and aunt have a deep relationship, and naturally they hope to continue this deep friendship. We can't let them down, don't you think, cousin?" Zhou Jinlin said.

Shen Qionghua raised her eyebrows, sneered inwardly, and said, "I don't think that's necessary. My aunt and mother grew up together and have a close relationship. I've only met the prince a handful of times. If I try to act warm and welcoming, it's really a bit unreasonable."

"Besides, there are differences between men and women, and we are not children anymore. If we get too close, it will inevitably lead to criticism and cause unnecessary trouble. Maintaining an appropriate distance is good for both me and the prince."

"If you are alright, I will go back first. Mother is still waiting for me at Yunmengxuan."

After Shen Qionghua finished speaking, she didn't wait for Zhou Jinlin to speak, and left with Shaoyao without looking back.

After a while, Zhou Jinlin's brows relaxed and he turned around, looking at the hurried backs of the master and servant, with a playful smile in his eyes.

Before, I only thought that Shen Qionghua was good-looking and had an interesting personality, but I didn't expect that she had such a fierce side.

Tsk~

It really is becoming more and more to his liking.

That's what makes it fun, isn't it?

Zhou Jinlin chuckled and turned to walk towards Lanquan Garden.

"The prince is well."

As soon as Zhou Jinlin stepped into Wu's courtyard, he saw a maid dressed in green servant's clothes, whose appearance seemed a little mediocre to him, kneeling in the middle.

As soon as the maid saw him come in, her eyes lit up and she seemed ready to pounce on him in the next second.

Zhou Jinlin frowned. Although there were many maids who wanted to climb into his bed due to his status as the son of the Marquis of Yongning, most of those maids were pretty and seduced him secretly.

No one has ever dared to reveal his intentions so openly. The ambition in those eyes cannot be concealed. How could there be such an unruly person in my mother's yard?

Being noticed by a maidservant of average appearance was obviously not something Zhou Jinlin was happy about. He even spoke with a hint of displeasure, "Mother."

Lin nodded. She hadn't seen her son for a long time, and she couldn't help feeling happy.

"The prince is fine." Bai Zhi's pretentious voice sounded in the air, seeming very abrupt.

Lin pulled herself back to her thoughts and glanced indifferently at Bai Zhi who was kneeling on the ground.

He noticed that she was kneeling upright just now but now she was kneeling at an angle, with one palm supporting the ground and the other hand resting softly on her thigh, outlining her slim figure. Her blushing face was slightly raised as she looked at her son.

Seeing the other party being so disrespectful, Lin became more and more annoyed.

She said calmly, "Have you remembered everything I told you?"

Bai Zhi finally came back to her senses and said, "I remember it clearly."

Lin hummed lightly.

"Now that you have remembered it clearly, you can go down first."

what?

Bai Zhi glanced at Zhou Jinlin reluctantly before saying, "Yes."

He stood up and walked away.

After he left, Zhou Jinlin sat on the armchair below Lin and said, "Where is this maid from? How dare she be so unruly."

"She is a maidservant beside Shen Qionghua, a lowly person who betrayed her former master, had lofty ambitions, and wanted to become a phoenix by flying up the tree." Lin's voice was full of disdain.

After hearing what Lin said, Zhou Jinlin understood.

"It turns out it's her."

Even the attendants around him looked down on such a woman, yet he still wanted her to be his concubine. It was simply a fantasy.

"Your Highness, have you made your decision?"

Lin nodded and whispered in Zhou Jinlin's ear.

After a while, Zhou Jinlin raised his head, and the mother and son smiled at each other.
