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

When Lin Ze heard this, he suddenly raised his head, only to see that Xie Nanyuan had turned around and walked to the main seat and sat down, with a calm and natural look on his face.

If it weren't for the prince's pair of ink-black eyes staring at him, Lin Ze would have thought he was hallucinating.

Does the prince mean that he should quickly tell Miss Shen that the matter has been resolved so that Miss Shen won't worry?

Did he understand correctly?

Is that what you mean?

Seeing Lin Ze standing there stupidly, Xie Nanyuan's face wrinkled into a bitter melon, his brows knitted slightly, and his low voice became even colder: "Why don't you go quickly!"

"Ah, oh, yes, I'll go right away." Lin Ze felt a shock all over his body, and he immediately agreed and rushed out.

-

The sky was dark and the moon was high in the sky.

After Shaoyao returned the food box to the kitchen, she prepared to go back to the house to help the young lady take a bath.

As soon as she entered the yard, she was grabbed at a dark corner. She was so scared that she screamed, but a big hand covered her mouth.

"Don't scream, it's me!"

The low voice sounded somewhat familiar. Shaoyao took a closer look and immediately became furious.

Are all the guards in Prince Rui's Palace mentally ill?

Everyone likes to scare people.

This is the case with An Yi in the Marquis' Mansion, and also with Lin Ze.

Lin Ze realized that he had frightened the girl, so he quickly let go of her hand and said awkwardly, "Miss Shaoyao, I'm so sorry for scaring you."

He had no choice. The prince's attitude towards Miss Shen was unclear, and he didn't dare to break into Miss Shen's house at will.

In case he saw something he shouldn’t have seen, it would be fine if the prince and Miss Shen didn’t have any relationship in the future.

If the prince really has that kind of thoughts about Miss Shen, wouldn't I be in big trouble?

So when he looked around but didn't see any peony, he just found a place to hide and wait.

"What are you doing here at this hour?" Since the other master had helped her young lady, Shaoyao naturally couldn't keep a sullen face anymore.

"Um, has Miss Shen rested?" Lin Ze said with a wry smile.

Shaoyao looked him up and down and said, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go and tell the young lady."

As Shaoyao spoke, she walked towards Shen Qionghua's house and soon disappeared from Linze's sight.

After a while, Shaoyao came out of the house, looked around, and then made a gesture to Linze.

Linze understood and immediately went around the corner and climbed in through the window.

When I lowered the window, I turned around and saw Shen Qionghua sitting on an embroidered stool with a travel book on the table. The warm yellow candlelight gave it a hazy feeling.

"Miss Shen." Lin Ze stepped forward and bowed.

Shen Qionghua nodded and said, "Why are you coming here at this time? What does His Royal Highness Prince Rui want?"

Lin Ze was stunned for a moment by Shen Qionghua's question, but then he reacted and said, "Nothing happened. I came here to tell Miss Shen not to worry. The prince has won the first place and there is no need to fear Prince An anymore."

Shen Qionghua smiled and said, "I already know about this. Thank you for coming to tell me. I also want to thank you very much. If you hadn't conveyed Shaoyao's words to His Royal Highness Prince Rui in time, I'm afraid Prince An would have succeeded by now."

Lin Ze waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this.

"No, no, this is what I should do."

After saying this, the room suddenly became quiet.

Lin Ze looked up and saw Shaoyao staring at him, and he reacted subconsciously.

It seems not appropriate to stay in someone else's house so late. He said what the prince asked him to say, and he was not talking to Miss Shaoyao, but to the real person.

Now that he had completed the task assigned by the prince, Linze planned to return home.

He placed his hands on his chest and bowed, saying, "If Miss Shen has nothing else to do and the prince still needs someone to serve him, Linze will go back first."

Shen Qionghua smiled and nodded.

"Thanks a lot."

Linze climbed out the window and left.

Shaoyao stepped forward, poured a glass of water and handed it to Shen Qionghua, with a puzzled look on her face.

"Miss, this entourage of His Royal Highness Prince Rui is truly strange. They even came all the way to inform you of something that everyone already knew."

It was no secret that Prince Rui had won the first place. The news had spread in the palace as early as dinner. Why should he bother to make a trip in person?

He acted so mysterious that she thought Prince Rui had something important to tell the young lady.

Shen Qionghua was also a little confused, but she was still very grateful that Prince Rui had helped her again this time.

Shen Qionghua stood up and said to Shaoyao, "Prepare some water."

"Yes!" Shaoyao responded and turned to leave the house.

-

Chaoyang Hall.

When Linze walked in hurriedly, Xie Nanyuan was sitting at the desk reading a military book.

Hearing the footsteps in the hall, he asked without raising his head, "Have you said it?"

Linze took a step forward and nodded in agreement.

Then he stood there, like a gourd with a sawed mouth, without saying another word, for fear of disturbing Xie Nanyuan from reading the military book.

Xie Nanyuan's grip on the military book gradually tightened, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of Lin Ze standing there, his mind wandering, his thick black eyebrows slightly knitted.

After a long pause, he cleared his throat and asked, "Does she know?"

After the words fell, there was silence for a moment, and then Lin Ze realized that the prince was asking him.

He quickly said, "Miss Shen already knows."

This answer did not satisfy Xie Nanyuan. He asked casually, "You didn't see her?"

Did he only tell the maid?

"Yes, Miss Shaoyao personally took me to see Miss Shen." Lin Ze replied.

Xie Nanyuan hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Then she didn't say anything?"

Lin Ze paused when he heard this, and tried hard to recall what Miss Shen had just said, then a big smile appeared on his face.

"Miss Shen expressed her gratitude to me for promptly informing His Highness of Miss Shaoyao's words."

"Gone?"

"No more." Lin Ze said.

Hearing Lin Ze's answer, Xie Nanyuan pursed his lips, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became cold.

Lin Ze's hair suddenly stood on end. He subconsciously looked up at Xie Nanyuan, but found that Xie Nanyuan was not looking at him, and his eyes were not on the military book, but on the empty space.

After more than ten years of getting along, Linze intuitively felt that Xie Nanyuan was angry, but when he thought about what he had just said, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

It can't be that the prince is angry with me for being nosy and shouldn't tell Miss Shen, but only need to tell Shaoyao, right?

Lin Ze racked his brains but couldn't figure out why Xie Nanyuan was angry. He rolled his eyes and saw that Xie Nanyuan's disappointed gaze fell on him again.

Eyes as deep as an ancient well stared at him without blinking, as if he was looking at a dead person.

A sudden fear rose in Lin Ze's heart. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, please don't look at me like that. I'm scared."

Xie Nanyuan abruptly retracted his gaze, stood up, and said quietly, "I've drunk a bit too much today, and I'm feeling a bit more excited. I want to stretch my muscles. Come and try some sparring with me."

Having said that, he took the lead and walked towards the open space outside the hall.

Lin Ze was petrified on the spot. He was stunned for a long time before he caught up and said, "Your Highness, I am not very good at martial arts. Let Ji Bei help you practice!"

What a joke!

The prince is a martial arts master, even Ji Bei cannot compare to him. What is the difference between fighting with the prince and getting beaten unilaterally?

Seeing Xie Nanyuan remained silent, Linze panicked. He noticed Ji Bei standing at the door and quickly grabbed Ji Bei's sleeve.

"Ji Bei, hurry up! Come and move around with the prince!" Lin Ze said anxiously.

Ji Bei clasped his hands together, holding a large knife. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Lin Ze lightly.

Then he swung his long sleeves, grabbed Linze's collar and threw him onto the open ground.

Linze: “…”

He stood up with some trembling, looked at Xie Nanyuan walking towards him step by step, and closed his eyes resignedly.

That night, the screams from Zhaoyang Palace lasted until midnight.
