Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

Chapter 456 I can't beat her

The princess, dressed in a plain white dress, quietly looked at Xu Lan in the corridor not far away. She paused for a moment and then turned away, leaving.

The cold and beautiful temperament came over her, giving everyone present a suffocating pressure.

Even after she left for a long time, Xu Lan still stood there in a daze. There was a bit of loss of soul on her pretty face.

Indescribable depression.

Xu Lan suddenly realized that she seemed to have no advantage in front of this princess...

She couldn't compare with her in appearance, temperament, and figure... She couldn't compare in all aspects.

Compared with this princess, she had no advantages in any aspect.

She was beaten in all aspects!

Not to mention her status...

She was the princess, one of the most noble people in the Daning Dynasty!

The most beloved sister of the current emperor!

And more importantly... She was Lin Jiangnian's nominal fiancée!

The kind with a legitimate reason!

And this was also the most fatal, the most dejected and inferior reason for Xu Lan.

Even though she had never thought of competing with the princess, she still felt disappointed when she thought of the huge gap between them.

There is no comparison at all!

She is legitimate, what is she?

Secretly hooking up with a married man?

When this thought came to her mind, Miss Xu lowered her head, her face lost.

Even if she wanted to be a concubine, she had to be careful to see her husband's face...

Lin Qingqing, who was standing by, naturally noticed the change in Xu Lan, and she sighed secretly in her heart.

As a subordinate of His Highness, she naturally saw that Miss Xu liked His Highness.

Otherwise, how could a pampered young lady put down her status again and again and come to His Highness regardless of her image?

This time, she was not afraid of the hardship along the way back to Linzhou, and she was still sticking to His Highness.

It was already very obvious!

But the appearance of the princess just now seemed to have collapsed the little confidence that Miss Xu had left?

Looking at the distraught Xu Lan, Lin Qingqing didn't know how to comfort her.

There is no comfort.

After all, she is the eldest princess, and Lin Qingqing needs to look up to her.

Let alone Xu Lan, any woman in the world would find it difficult to feel superior in front of this eldest princess.

It is difficult for anyone to compare with this eldest princess in terms of appearance, temperament, and status.

What's more... the eldest princess's martial arts are unparalleled and unfathomable.

Even Lin Qingqing admires her.

Looking at the direction where the eldest princess disappeared, and then looking at Xu Lan beside her, Lin Qingqing hesitated for a long time, and finally said nothing.

She remembered that she had mentioned to His Highness on the road yesterday that Miss Xu liked His Highness.

But His Highness did not give a clear answer after hearing it.

As an excellent subordinate, Lin Qingqing naturally realized what His Highness meant.

Therefore, she did not interfere much.

The debt of love on His Highness's body had to be solved by His Highness himself.

As a subordinate, she only needed to be a qualified mute!

…

At this time, Lin Jiangnian was not aware of what was happening outside.

He was very weak now.

After he once again consumed a lot of internal energy to help Li Piaomiao suppress the coldness in his body, his body became weak again.

However, compared to before, the situation is obviously much better now.

I don’t know whether it is because his internal energy has improved during this period, or because he is familiar with it after many times. Although he still consumed a lot of internal energy this time, he was not as weak as he imagined before.

At the same time, when helping Li Piaomiao suppress the coldness in his body, Lin Jiangnian did not gain nothing.

While absorbing the coldness in Li Piaomiao’s body, Lin Jiangnian could feel that his body had also undergone considerable changes.

The feeling of heat when practicing the Xuanyang Heart Method in the past disappeared, and now he can almost control it freely. And the coldness absorbed into his body, after refining, gradually transformed into his own use.

The Xuanyang Heart Method, which was originally extremely strong and yang, seemed to have gradually changed.

Lin Jiangnian could feel that the Xuanyang internal energy in his body was not pure enough!

But, it felt even more refined!

After integrating the pure coldness in Li Piaomiao's body, it was like a combination of yin and yang, making the internal force in Lin Jiangnian's body in a mysterious state.

Every time he helped Li Piaomiao suppress the coldness in his body, Lin Jiangnian could also feel the obvious increase in his internal force.

And this is also the reason why Lin Jiangnian was exhausted and very weak every time he was squeezed by the princess, but he still flocked to her and was willing to "heal" Li Piaomiao.

Such "cultivation" can make Lin Jiangnian progress much faster than when he explored alone!

Lin Jiangnian, who had just entered the fourth-grade realm not long ago, clearly felt that his realm was gradually stabilized and his strength was vaguely improved again during the period of "healing" with Li Piaomiao.

Although he was still some distance away from the third-grade master, if the princess was around, Lin Jiangnian felt that it would not take long...

...

Sitting cross-legged in the room, he circulated his internal force through his body. As his internal strength slowly recovered, the weakness in his body was swept away, and Lin Jiangnian finally finished his training and opened his eyes.

His physical condition was much better!

He stood up and looked at himself through the bronze mirror not far away. Although his face was still a little pale and weak, it was obviously much better than before when he needed to rest for several days.

After determining what was seriously wrong with his body, Lin Jiangnian walked to the door of the room.

Push the door and walk out.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw several figures standing outside the door.

However, what surprised Lin Jiangnian was that the people standing outside the door were not Jinxiu and An Ning. But Lin Qingqing, standing next to Lin Qingqing, lowered her head and said nothing, seemed to be a little depressed.

"Xu Lan?"

Lin Jiangnian was slightly startled, a little strange: "What happened to you?"

When he was helping Li Miaomiao 'treat', he vaguely heard Xu Lan's voice coming from outside the door, but he was so focused at the time that he didn't listen carefully.

Look at Xu Lan's appearance again...what happened?

Lin Jiangnian looked at Lin Qingqing on the side and saw that Lin Qingqing also looked helpless.

At this time, after hearing Lin Jiangnian's voice, Xu Lan raised her head and looked at him with a pair of faint eyes.

Lin Jiangnian was a little embarrassed by her look and couldn't help but pat her head: "What's wrong? Don't look at me like that."

Xu Lan pursed her lips, her face full of resentment, and said nothing.

Lin Qingqing on the side saw this and immediately coughed: "Your Highness, I'm going down first!"

Lin Qingqing wisely chose to run away.

Lin Jiangnian and Xu Lan were left standing there, staring at each other.

"What's wrong? You look like you've been bullied? Who bullied you?"

Lin Jiangnian thought about it, could it be that Jinxiu and An Ning bullied her just now?

That's right, how could Xu Lan defeat the twins. This eldest lady is an idiot, I'm afraid she won't be fooled by Jinxiu.

"Huh, you're bullying me!"

Xu Lan's tone seemed a little aggrieved.

"When did I bully you again?"

"You just bullied me!"

"Be reasonable when you speak, why did I bully you?"

"Don't tell me!"

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

He wanted to say something, but when he noticed that Xu Lan didn't seem to be in a very high mood, Lin Jiangnian realized something... was he really unhappy?

What's wrong with this girl?

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Lin Jiangnian sighed secretly: "This is not your character, Miss Xu. What happened to make you so depressed?"

"Tell me, why did I bully you?"

Xu Lan lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said somewhat glumly: "Why is the eldest princess here?"

"It just happened to happen."

"How could it be such a coincidence?"

"Don't tell me yet, I want to ask too."

Lin Jiangnian was also puzzled. He had kept a low profile this time when he went back, but he didn't expect that he would still meet the eldest princess.

…It’s indeed a bit of a coincidence!

"She, she also wants to return to Prince Lin's Mansion with you?"

Xu Lan asked tentatively.

"Stop it, why don't we go back to Prince Lin's Mansion together? She is going to Prince Lin's Mansion to do something, we just happened to run into each other."

Lin Jiangnian shook his head.

"Then she doesn't want to go back with you?"

Xu Lan's tone became even more resentful.

Lin Jiangnian sighed: "If you want to understand it this way, it's not impossible."

Xu Lan stopped talking, staring at Lin Jiangnian pitifully like a young daughter-in-law who had been wronged and angry.

"So, what's going on with you?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her reaction and felt something in his heart. He vaguely guessed something: "Because of the eldest princess?"

Xu Lan sighed quietly: "She is so beautiful!"

"You're not bad either!"

"She has such a cool temperament, so enviable!"

"Your temperament is also good."

"I can't compare to her, she is so good..."

"You don't have to compare with others, everyone is unique, and you are also excellent..."

"But she has a good figure, with curvy front and back, tall legs and long legs, and her skin is white and tender..."

"..."

Lin Jiangnian stopped talking, and there was no way to comfort him.

Is the truth.

He can't be unconscionable, can he?

But seeing Xu Lan's appearance, Lin Jiangnian also guessed something. He sighed slightly: "Why do you compare with her if you have nothing to do?"

If you have nothing to do, you can’t compete with anyone. Do you have to compete with Li Piaomiao?

Isn't she humiliating herself?

Xu Lan lowered her head and pouted a little aggrievedly: "I didn't compare with her, but...she is your fiancée!"

Lin Jiangnian's heart moved slightly and he couldn't help but look at Xu Lan. The implication of her words...

"so what?"

Xu Lan's tone was a little weak: "When will you get married to her?"

"Who said I'm going to marry her?"

Xu Lan was startled when he heard this and looked up at Lin Jiangnian, "What?"

"She, isn't she your fiancée?"

"so what?"

Lin Jiangnian asked back: "Who said that the fiancée will definitely get married?"

Xu Lan: "?"

At this moment, Xu Lan's face was stunned, and her brain seemed a little weak.

Fiancée, may not get married?

They are both fiancées, why are they still not sure about getting married?

Facing Xu Lan's blank eyes, Lin Jiangnian shook his head: "A fiancée is a fiancée, and a marriage is a marriage. They cannot be confused..."

He didn't explain the complicated relationship to Xu Lan, and he didn't bother to explain it. With her IQ, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to understand it even if she explained it.

Xu Lan really couldn't understand, but from what Lin Jiangnian said...didn't he plan to marry the princess?

"You guys, don't you plan to get married?"

Xu Lan suddenly asked tentatively.

For some reason, there was a hint of expectation and excitement in her tone.

Although it seemed that even if Lin Jiangnian didn't marry the princess, it wouldn't be her turn?

But...it seemed that she would be much less stressed this way?

When she thought of this, Xu Lan became more and more excited.

"Who knows what will happen in the future?"

Lin Jiangnian didn't give a definite answer.

After all, Li Piaomiao was still his nominal fiancée, so Lin Jiangnian couldn't say anything too final.

But after hearing this answer, Xu Lan's originally depressed and uneasy mood instantly turned from cloudy to sunny.

Yes!

Who knows what will happen in the future?

But for now...it hasn't been married yet?

Who knows...it might fail?

After the appearance of the princess, Xu Lan had been in a state of guilt and uneasiness. On the one hand, she felt inferior to the princess, and on the other hand, she felt like an outsider, with a sense of moral condemnation for destroying someone else's happy family.

But now, after listening to Lin Jiangnian's words, she was instantly cleared from the haze.

Suddenly enlightened!

That's right!

Who said that the fiancée would definitely get married?

In fact, she and Lin Jiangnian knew each other earlier.

Obviously she knew each other first!

Is the princess so great?

... Maybe she should call her sister, right?

When she thought of this, Xu Lan's originally dim eyes were full of color again, staring at Lin Jiangnian with a smart and flowing look, full of energy.

Lin Jiangnian didn't know what happened to this Miss Xu. She had a lonely look on her face just now, but in the blink of an eye, she became radiant?

This face changed too quickly!

"Are you okay?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her.

"Yeah."

Xu Lan nodded hurriedly.

"That's fine."

Lin Jiangnian nodded, and didn't ask her what she had been through.

"Ok, hurry up and pack up, and get ready to continue on the road."

"Ah?"

When she heard that she had to continue on the road, Xu Lan, who was originally excited, instantly became weak again.

She looked at Lin Jiangnian pitifully and asked tentatively: "Can you, can you rest for another day?"
