Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

Seeing that the little maid became more nervous, her face became paler.

Lin Jiangnian was stunned.

Why does she seem even more unhappy when she is not allowed to warm the bed?

"Your name is Xiaozhu, right?"

Lin Jiangnian asked.

Xiaozhu lowered his head, clasped his hands together, and nodded uneasily: "Yes."

"Where's your real name?"

Xiaozhu looked a little confused and whispered: "Xiaozhu, just call me Xiaozhu..."

Lin Jiangnian was a little happy. This little maid was not only a little stupid, but also naive.

"Tell me, my prince, how you entered the palace?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the little maid and began to inquire about her origins.

Xiaozhu whispered: "Yes, it was Sister Zhiyuan who rescued Xiaozhu..."

"save?"

Xiaozhu seemed to remember something, with a somewhat sad look in his eyes, and whispered: "After Xiaozhu's parents passed away last year, Xiaozhu's aunt wanted to sell Xiaozhu to a brothel... It happened to be that time I met Sister Zhiyuan..."

"Sister Zhiyuan is kind-hearted. She bought Xiaozhu and brought Xiaozhu back to the palace..."

When he said this, Xiaozhu's tone was a little nervous, and there was a bit of fear in his eyes.

She was almost sold to a brothel!

Those people said that she was beautiful, that she was a courtesan, and so on... She didn't understand, but she had heard people say before that the women in brothels were bad women who had to wait for others to sleep...

She was scared...she didn't want to wait on someone to sleep.

Her aunt has not liked her since she was a child. After her parents passed away, she disliked her even more...

Fortunately, Sister Zhiyuan rescued her and brought her back to the palace. The palace is really big, there is no need to worry about food and drink, and there are beautiful clothes to wear... This is a life that she never dared to dream about before.

At that time, Xiaozhu secretly made up his mind to repay Sister Zhiyuan well and become a qualified maid.

"I see."

Lin Jiangnian nodded slightly, feeling a little more sympathetic to the little maid's life experience. At the same time, I also had a change of heart towards Zhiyuan, who had a cold face all day long.

Didn't you realize that she actually had such a kind side?

But then, Lin Jiangnian realized something again and looked at Xiaozhu in front of him, thoughtfully.

Zhiyuan will save her, perhaps because seeing the poor Xiaozhu whose parents both died reminds her of her own life experience?

The woman in red mentioned that Zhiyuan also lost her parents when she was young and was a maid adopted by Princess Lin, but she was more like Princess Lin's adopted daughter. If not, King Lin would not trust her so much and give her such great power as a maid.

Lin Jiangnian then thought about what happened in the teahouse today, and his thoughts were abounding.

If we say that Prince Lin is the only person that Prince Lin is afraid of. The only person Prince Lin Prince could care about that day was probably the late Princess Lin.

Prince Lin's playfulness, twisted personality, irritable temper, and wanton behavior over the years are probably related to his lack of maternal love since childhood.

But even so, Princess Lin still has a very high status in his mind, and no one is allowed to insult her.

Li Qianlin may be right. Prince Lin has indeed had no one to discipline him since he was a child. But his words were also alluding to King Lin and Princess Lin.

Alluding to King Lin not being able to discipline his son, and even more alluding to Lin Jiangnian being a motherless man!

Princess Lin is the counterpart of Prince Lin. This is something that many people in Prince Lin's Mansion and even Linjiang City know.

But Li Qianlin didn't know.

Or maybe he knew, but didn't take it to heart.

The last person who dared to insult Princess Lin in public was beaten to death in public two years ago by someone sent by Prince Lin. It was also at that time that Prince Lin's notoriety spread far and wide, even reaching the capital.

If the emperor had not been unwell and was in seclusion, and the officials in the court were afraid of King Lin's power and would not dare to offend him too much, otherwise the prince would not be able to escape. But even so, memorials to the impeachment of King Lin were still emerging one after another.

Prince Lin was also imprisoned for half a year. It was at that time that Zhiyuan entered the palace...

But this time, Li Qianlin once again made a sarcastic comment, which was obviously intentional.

But... Lin Jiangnian still has to take action!

So, today's scene happened.

If he were the real Prince Lin today, he would definitely fight to the death with Li Qianlin.

Of course, he probably wouldn't be able to act as resolutely as Lin Jiangnian and personally give Li Qianlin the gourd.

As for Zhiyuan's abnormal reaction when she saw him earlier... Lin Jiangnian naturally understood the reason.

Concubine Lin is an inseparable figure to Prince Lin, and she is also an extremely important person to Zhiyuan. What happened in the teahouse today could not escape her eyes and ears, and she naturally knew the cause.

It is not difficult, then, to understand her previous change of attitude.

His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince whom she hates, fights regardless of the danger in order to protect the most important person to her... Her mood must be quite complicated?

…

The room fell silent.

Xiaozhu secretly raised his head and took a cautious look at Lin Jiangnian.

When she saw that His Highness was looking attentively, as if he was thinking about something, she blinked and breathed a sigh of relief. Her smart eyes were very cute.

Seeing that His Highness didn't notice her, Xiaozhu became more courageous and gradually lost the nervousness before. She secretly glanced at His Highness, once, twice, three times...

Your Highness, is it really beautiful?

Xiaozhu blinked.

They all said that His Highness inherited the handsome appearance of the prince and the noble temperament of the princess, and was a rare handsome man in the world.

It seems...that's true?

Especially the way His Highness was thinking seriously at this moment, Xiaozhu looked at it a few more times, feeling a little obsessed.

After a while, she came back to her senses, her face turned red and she became panicked.

Xiaozhu, Xiaozhu, what are you doing? !

How can you peek at His Highness? What if His Highness is angry...

She panicked a little.

But for some reason, I don't feel that panic in my heart... Your Highness, it seems that it is really different from what they said?

Xiaozhu thought about it carefully. Although His Highness sometimes looked fierce, especially when he taught her a lesson with a straight face, it was very scary.

She was almost scared to tears!

But it seems that His Highness has never bullied her?

Nor did she force her onto the bed like other sisters said, then savagely tear her clothes apart, ignore her struggles and cry for mercy, press her down on her, and then...

Xiaozhu's face turned even redder, and he shook his head in a panic to throw away all the messy things.

It's all my fault for those sisters, they always tell me some nonsense things... It's scary!

When she finally regained her composure, she saw Lin Jiangnian looking at her strangely: "What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's nothing..."

Xiaozhu, who felt guilty, suddenly turned red, and even her earlobes were translucent and red.

Very beautiful.

Lin Jiangnian looked at the little maid in front of him who was blushing inexplicably.

What's up with her?

"My prince is hungry!"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her: "Go and get some food for me."

After spending a lot of time at the teahouse today, it was getting dark now. Lin Jiangnian suddenly remembered that he hadn't eaten yet and felt a little hungry.

"okay!"

Xiaozhu lowered his head, his pretty face flushed, got up and ran out of the room as if running away.

Flee in despair.

…

After Lin Jiangnian had his dinner and had enough to eat and drink, the sky became dark.

The maid also prepared hot water in advance and was waiting for His Royal Highness to take a bath.

The simple and unpretentious life of Prince Lin is probably just like this, with clothes on hand and food on hand, food on hand and mouth to open, right?

As soon as Lin Jiangnian stepped into the bathroom, a maid had been waiting for a long time and came forward to help Lin Jiangnian change clothes.

"etc……"

Lin Jiangnian stopped the maid's movement and glanced at a sneaky figure hiding outside the door.

There was a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Let her come!"

"..."
