Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

After being rejected, Lin Jiangnian didn't take it too seriously and returned to the room first.

Now that Zhiyuan was angry, Lin Jiangnian did not continue to be angry. As for what to do next, he already had a plan in mind.

But there is no rush!

After returning to his room, Lin Jiangnian rested for a while, then sat cross-legged on the ground and started practicing, and continued to practice the Xuanyang Heart Technique.

It wasn't until darkness fell that the work came to an end.

Lin Jiangnian felt refreshed and radiant.

At the same time, one can clearly feel that the 'qi' in the body is increasing day by day, becoming more and more intense. At the same time, while practicing the Xuanyang Heart Method, he could indeed feel the qi and blood surging in his body, and his whole body was burning hot.

There is an indescribable hot smell, and I even feel a vague impulse in my heart!

After taking several deep breaths, I temporarily suppressed the thought.

This is indeed a good sign. The Xuanyang Heart Technique is full of energy and blood, which means that Lin Jiangnian's strength has taken a further step. Lin Jiangnian was already satisfied that he could achieve such results after just a few days of practicing martial arts.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xiaozhu's weak voice came: "Your Highness?"

"Um?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at the door and said calmly: "Come in."

Xiaozhu pushed the door open and approached, carefully glanced at Lin Jiangnian, and then said: "Your Highness, it's getting late. Dinner has been prepared. Would you like to eat now?"

"Send it to the room."

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand.

"good."

Upon hearing this, Xiaozhu quickly turned around and trotted away.

Not long after, a servant brought food into the room.

After Lin Jiangnian finished his meal, the maid cleaned up the room. When he was about to leave the room, Lin Jiangnian suddenly called Xiaozhu.

"You stay first."

"Um?"

Xiaozhu stopped and looked back at His Highness, slightly nervous: "Your Highness, is something wrong?"

"right!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded and glanced at the door: "Go and close the door first."

Hearing this, Xiaozhu's heart skipped a beat.

His face turned red.

close the door?

Your Highness, what bad thing do you want to do?

When he was extremely nervous, he seemed to think of something. He lowered his head and blushed, walked to the door, closed the door, and returned.

"Your Highness, yes, what can I do?"

Xiaozhu asked cautiously.

"Come here." Lin Jiangnian glanced at her.

Xiaozhu nervously took small steps and came to the table next to His Highness, intertwining his little hands.

Uneasy.

"sit down."

"Slave, I don't dare to..."

"You are asked to sit down, and you are not allowed to disobey my prince's orders!"

"oh."

Xiaozhu then sat down aggrievedly.

But he tightened his body and only dared to sit lightly on the chair with half of his buttocks. His little head was full of nervousness and doubts... What is your highness going to do?

Lin Jiangnian slowly raised his eyes and looked at the little maid in front of him.

Under his gaze, Xiaozhu quickly turned red and lowered his head.

"Do you know what business this prince has with you?"

Xiaozhu lowered his head, "No, I don't know."

"Don't worry, I won't let you warm the bed tonight." Lin Jiangnian said calmly.

"oh……"

The little maid lowered her head and nodded honestly, indicating that she understood.

Lin Jiangnian looked at her reaction and narrowed his eyes slightly: "What? You don't look very happy and disappointed that I won't let you warm the bed?"

"No, no..."

Xiaozhu waved his hands in a panic, wanting to explain something, but he didn't know how to speak. He hesitated, his little face turned red.

Lin Jiangnian noticed something: "Did Zhiyuan tell you?"

There was a trace of panic on Xiaozhu's face. After a while, he still lowered his head and nodded honestly: "Yes."

"What did she tell you?"

"Sister Zhiyuan said... His Highness practices martial arts, so he cannot lose his virginity..."

"She lied to you." Lin Jiangnian said expressionlessly.

"ah?"

Xiaozhu opened his eyes wide in vain, his face full of surprise. But soon, she thought of something again and shook her head: "Sister Zhiyuan will not lie to me..."

Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes: "Do you trust her?"

"Um……"

"So, you would rather trust her than this prince?"

Xiaozhu shook his head in panic: "No, no, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I..."

"Xiao, of course Xiaozhu believes in this prince..."

"Yeah?"

The playful smile on Lin Jiangnian's face became even brighter: "Then, if I tell you that she is lying to you... I don't have to abstain from sex at all. I can let you warm the bed tonight. Do you believe it?"

Xiaozhu froze on the spot, his head was buzzing, it was a bit insufficient!

Do you believe His Highness or Sister Zhiyuan?

She, of course she believes...

"me……"

Xiaozhu was so nervous that he almost cried. He didn't know how to answer for a while and was in a dilemma.

From the reaction on her face, Lin Jiangnian verified what he was thinking. He suddenly sneered: "It seems that you only have her in your eyes, not me, Your Highness, right?"

Lin Jiangnian's tone changed in vain, and the little maid's delicate body trembled, her beauty immediately turned pale, and her little head shook like a rattle: "No, slave, no..."

"Yeah?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her and pondered: "Then if this prince and Zhiyuan ask you to do a different thing at the same time, who will you listen to?"

"I……"

Xiaozhu lowered his head and bit his lower lip, with a tangled look on his face.

She glanced at Lin Jiangnian cautiously and tentatively: "Slave, slave, can you... listen?"

"cannot."

Lin Jiangnian's face was expressionless: "You can only choose one of two. Do you listen to my son or her?"

"me……"

Xiaozhu had a tangled look on his face, and finally seemed to have made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will listen to His Highness."

Her answer was beyond Lin Jiangnian's expectation.

Did you think that this little traitor would stand by Zhiyuan as always?

"Why?" Lin Jiangnian looked at her.

Xiaozhu lowered his head, stared at the ground, and whispered: "Zhi, Sister Zhiyuan said that I am His Highness's maid, so I should obey His Highness's orders..."

Lin Jiangnian was slightly stunned. Zhiyuan actually ordered her like this?

"In that case?"

Lin Jiangnian came to his senses and glanced at her again: "Why did you betray me?"

"Slave, I don't have any..."

"As my eldest son's maid, you secretly complained to Zhiyuan before... If you're not a traitor, what are you?"

Xiaozhu's face suddenly turned pale: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I..."

"Do you know who decides the future in Prince Lin's Mansion?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the frightened little maid in front of him who was already pale, and said leisurely: "This prince is the future master of the palace, and Zhiyuan is just a maid like you. Of course she has feelings for you. Yes, but don’t forget, who is the person who really took you in?”

"The real place to take you in is Prince Lin's Mansion, and the person who takes you in is...my prince!"

Lin Jiangnian pointed at himself and began to brainwash the little maid in front of him: "Without my son's promise, do you think you are qualified to enter the gate of Prince Lin's Mansion?"

The little maid's mind was blank and her face was confused... Is that what happened?

It seems, it makes sense?

Sister Zhiyuan is also a maid of the palace like her. Without His Highness's permission, how could she be brought back by Sister Zhiyuan?

How can I become a maid beside His Highness and live a life without worries about food and clothing?

So the person who really took her in was actually His Highness?

Xiaozhu, who was unaware, was deceived and led astray by Lin Jiangnian without even realizing it.

"So, you should know now who you should be grateful to, right?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the little maid in front of him leisurely and raised the corners of his mouth. From the little maid's slightly confused eyes, she could see a look that she already believed.

"Yes, Your Highness?"

Xiaozhu spoke softly, his tone a little uncertain?

"That's right!"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and softened his tone: "Of course you have to thank Zhiyuan, she is indeed the one who saved you. But more importantly...do you also have to thank me?"

"Um……"

"So, you know what to do, right?"

Xiaozhu looked up blankly: "What, how to do it?"

When looking into His Highness's meaningful eyes, Xiaozhu understood something even though he was stupid.

She had heard from the sisters in the house that His Highness did not seem to have a good relationship with Sister Zhiyuan?

Could it be that Your Highness is...

"no!"

Xiaozhu shook his little head in panic: "Slave, slave, no, you can't betray Sister Zhiyuan..."

Hey, not too stupid?

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Don't worry, I won't let you betray your sister Zhiyuan."

"Then, Your Highness..."

Xiaozhu's face was puzzled: "What does Your Highness want from this slave?"

"Do you still remember that this prince said that he would give you a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious deeds? Now, I need you to help me with something!"

"What's up?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the little maid in front of him playfully: "Since you betrayed my prince's affairs to Zhi Yuan before, now I need you to secretly tell me the information about Zhi Yuan!"

"Including her daily schedule, what she eats for three meals a day, where she goes, what she sits on every day...even when she bathes and when she goes to sleep..."

"All of these things must be reported to this prince, do you understand?"

"..."

"..."

The little maid is gone.

Left in a daze.

She didn't know why His Highness wanted to know what Sister Zhiyuan ate and did every day?

Do you even need to know when Sister Zhiyuan takes a bath and falls asleep?

The little maid is young and does not understand what perversion is. It just felt wrong instinctively, but when I thought about it, His Highness just asked her to quietly tell him what Sister Zhiyuan did every day. Doesn't this seem to hurt Sister Zhiyuan?

Sister Zhiyuan actually doesn't do much every day, it's all normal, and it's not a secret...

In this way, she has not failed Sister Zhiyuan, but can she compensate His Highness the Crown Prince?

Kill two birds with one stone?

Thinking of this, the little maid was confused and suddenly enlightened!

…

After Xiaozhu left, Lin Jiangnian sat at the table and was in a good mood.

The little traitor's IQ was obviously not high, but under Lin Jiangnian's deception, he somehow fell into the trap.

The little traitor is obviously a bit young.

Since she was an informant placed by Zhi Yuan around Lin Jiangnian, Lin Jiangnian was naturally able to take advantage of his scheme and give Zhi Yuan a little surprise.

At this moment, a teasing voice came from the side.

"Tsk, look at you smiling, what bad things are you thinking about?"

Slightly relaxed tone.

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyes and realized that the woman in red had appeared in the room at some unknown time.

"when did you come?"

"Come early!"

The woman in red sat down opposite Lin Jiangnian and looked at him with a half-smile in her beautiful eyes: "Can't you tell that the little maid was so confused by you that she would have to help you count the money even if she was sold by you?"

"I guess I can't escape from your grasp, right?"

"What, when do you plan to capture her?"

"..."

I still owe a chapter, so I should write it later! Don’t wait, everyone, let’s watch it tomorrow~

Thanks to [Wangji] for the reward!
