Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

Liu Su's mood was a bit complicated, and she couldn't explain it.

It's hard to describe her emotions.

Not long ago, she had just learned about the relationship between Lin Jiangnian and Li Piaomiao from Lin Jiangnian's mouth.

Indeed, as it seems, the eldest princess is an iceberg beauty.

It also seems to be a completely ignorant Yumu.

Compared to normal people, she lacks many emotions and desires, and lacks many emotions that normal people should have.

Because of this, Liu Su was not surprised when he learned that Lin Jiangnian and Li Miaomiao had no further development!

Even in Liu Su's opinion, it was impossible for Li Miaomiao to fall in love with Lin Jiangnian.

That eldest princess, she probably doesn’t even know what liking means!

However, at this moment... Liu Su suddenly realized that she was wrong!

How wrong!

The eldest princess doesn’t understand what love is, maybe even...

She already likes it!

Her behavior has already been obvious!

She is a person who is very indifferent to emotions, very slow, so slow that she cannot even express her emotions at all.

But such a person deliberately hid his injury just now...

Very deliberate!

He deliberately concealed it in front of Lin Jiangnian.

what does that mean?

it goes without saying!

It is true that for someone like Li Miaomiao, she is not good at expressing emotions. But once you can notice the emotions she expresses, they are often extremely turbulent emotions...

"Sometimes, I find you are quite stupid."

Liu Su looked at Lin Jiangnian with complicated eyes and sighed softly.

She couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, and it wasn't that she was jealous. It was just that when she guessed and learned about the thoughts and plans of Lin Jiangnian and the eldest princess, she suddenly felt that her behavior seemed a bit petty.

The eldest princess obviously lacks the seven emotions and six desires, and is a cold-blooded and ruthless person in the eyes of others, but now she is already thinking about her family and country, and the common people of the world.

And what about her?

But it seems that she is still struggling with the issue of love between her children!

The difference is obvious!

Perhaps, this is probably the gap between him and her?

Liu Su smiled mockingly, looking at Lin Jiangnian whose face changed slightly and whose brows were furrowed, he was silent for a moment and said softly: "Go and see her quickly."

She glanced at the upstairs of the inn and paused, "Maybe at this time...she needs you."

"..."

After supporting Liu Su, sending her back to her room and telling her to have a good rest, Lin Jiangnian exited the room and then quickly came to the door of Li Miaomiao's room.

As soon as he reached the door, he met Jinxiu who was guarding the door.

"Your Highness."

Lin Jiangnian looked solemnly at the closed door behind her: "Where is the princess?"

"The princess is resting in her room."

Lin Jiangnian was about to step forward, but was stopped by Jinxiu.

Jinxiu opened her arms and stood in front of His Highness; "Your Highness, you can't go in."

"Why?"

"Princess, it's inconvenient..."

Jinxiu blinked her eyes and made an excuse. The princess was still recovering from her injuries, and she had specifically told her not to let His Highness know.

Lin Jiangnian looked solemn when he saw Jinxiu stopping him.

In the past, Jinxiu would not stop him. This must be because of Li Miaomiao's instructions. So, was she really hurt? !

Lin Jiangnian's expression changed slightly: "What's wrong with the princess?"

Jinxiu noticed His Highness's expression and her heart skipped a beat. Could His Highness know this?

"Princess, she, she, nothing, nothing happened..."

Jinxiu gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness, don't worry..."

She wanted to make up some reason, but she saw Lin Jiangnian staring at her quietly, expressionless.

The direct gaze made Jinxiu look extremely weak, her hands were intertwined, and her head lowered unconsciously.

"Your Highness, you, don't look at this slave like this..."

"Tell me, what's going on?" Lin Jiangnian looked at her.

Jinxiu felt guilty and uneasy: "Your Highness, please stop asking...Princess, the princess won't let the slave say..."

She had already guessed from His Highness's reaction that His Highness might have known about the princess' injury...

As expected, Lin Jiangnian asked in a deep voice: "Is the princess injured?!"

Jinxiu's body tightened slightly, her expression became even more difficult, and she subconsciously glanced at the closed door behind her.

She didn't speak, she just blinked at Lin Jiangnian!

The answer is already obvious.

"Is the injury serious?"

Lin Jiangnian's tone was low, with a gloomy aura. At the moment, he didn't dare to break in, for fear of disturbing Li Miaomiao, who was recovering from his injuries.

"Slave, I don't even know this..."

Jinxiu's voice was weak. His Highness already knew that the princess was injured, so she had no need to hide it anymore. She whispered: "The princess said it's nothing serious..."

Jinxiu spoke softly to comfort His Highness, but her words were not convincing even when she said them herself.

When the princess came back, she asked An Ning to protect her and heal her injuries. It was obvious that her injuries were not serious...

Lin Jiangnian was obviously aware of this. His face was gloomy, he took a deep look at the closed door, looked away, and said in a deep voice: "Remember to notify me when the princess comes out of seclusion."

"yes."

Jinxiu nodded and looked back at the door, her eyes full of worry. When I turned back, I found that His Highness had turned around and left, going downstairs.

Lobby on the first floor.

Lin Jiangnian called his subordinate guards: "Where did you find the princess? Where did the princess come back from? Send someone over to check!"

His guards received the order and immediately went to investigate his whereabouts.

Immediately, Lin Jiangnian called Lin Qingqing again, and Lin Qingqing noticed something was wrong on His Highness's face: "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"That leader is probably nearby!"

Lin Jiangnian's face was gloomy and he said expressionlessly: "Send the order and tell them to be on guard and be careful."

Lin Qingqing immediately understood what His Highness meant and hurriedly took the order and left.

Lin Jiangnian was left standing in the lobby, his eyes slightly narrowed and cold.

Where did Li Piaomiao go yesterday?

He didn't know it clearly, but he could vaguely guess it.

With Li Miaomiao's current strength, there are only a handful of people in the world who can hurt her! And one of them happens to be nearby...the leader of the Celestial Sect!

Li Piaomiao must have met the leader. It was even very possible that she took the initiative to find the leader!

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian's face became even more ugly.

On the night of the prince's rebellion on New Year's Eve, a mysterious master broke into the palace and fought with Li Miaomiao.

After that battle, Li Piaomiao was seriously injured!

And that mysterious master is most likely the leader of the Celestial Sect!

But now... he is the only one who has the ability to hurt Li Pianmiao again.

No wonder the leader didn't show up last night...

Lin Jiangnian's eyes became colder as he wanted to understand all this.

...Very good, he has another debt with this leader!

…

Night gradually fell.

The guards sent out still found nothing. For several miles around the town, they did not find the whereabouts of the leader of the Celestial Sect.

In the small town inn, Lin Jiangnian came to the door of the room on the second floor.

This time, besides Jinxiu, there was An Ning's figure outside the room door. An Ning stood guarding the door with her sword in hand, standing quietly like a cold sculpture.

As Lin Jiangnian approached, she seemed to have some reaction, a complicated look flashed across her face, and then she habitually moved her head away.

"Your Highness."

Jinxiu spoke softly.

"Where's the princess?"

"The princess is in the room..."

Jinxiu spoke softly, and seeing that His Highness' face was still solemn, she whispered: "Your Highness, don't worry, the princess is fine...the injury is not serious."

When An Ning came out earlier, Jinxiu went to see the princess and confirmed from An Ning... that the princess only suffered some minor injuries, and her life and foundation were not endangered.

It's not serious.

However, the princess's body was severely exhausted, as if she had encountered a powerful enemy, and her body's aura was almost exhausted, making it look as if the princess had been seriously injured.

After hearing Jinxiu's words, Lin Jiangnian turned to look at An Ning.

An Ning turned his head away and was silent for a long time before saying something coldly.

"Princess, it's okay."

After getting a definite answer from An Ning, Lin Jiangnian felt relieved.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"I'm going to see the princess!"

After saying that, Lin Jiangnian walked to the door of the room, opened the door and walked in.

At the door, Jinxiu glanced at the shy, cold and unnatural An Ning next to her, wondering what she was thinking. After a while, he sighed quietly: "Peace?"

An Ning then turned to look at her.

"You and His Highness..."

Jinxiu paused for a moment and then said, "Don't you want to have a good chat?"

Very strange!

Ever since she realized that An Ning was most likely interested in His Highness, Jinxiu had always felt that the way they got along was weird.

It's hard to describe!

But Jinxiu doesn’t like this feeling very much!

Whether it was between her and His Highness, between her and An Ning, or between An Ning and His Highness, there seemed to be an invisible barrier blocking several people.

Jinxiu really wanted to have a serious and heart-to-heart talk with An Ning, but An Ning was a very stubborn girl and didn't want to talk to her at all.

And... his mouth is very tough.

An Ning seemed to be stunned for a moment, looking a little dazed. She pursed her lips and said nothing.

"You are exactly like the princess, both very stubborn..."

Jinxiu hates the irony: "It's the same with the princess. She obviously cares about His Highness in her heart, but she just doesn't want to express it. And you..."

Jinxiu originally wanted to accuse An Ning, but she stopped when her words reached her lips.

She feels like she has changed a lot recently?

In the past, when she learned of any clues between An Ning and His Highness, Jinxiu would be extremely nervous and cautious, fearing that An Ning would be poisoned by His Highness.

But I don’t know since when, it seems that her thoughts gradually began to change?

It seems... not as resistant as before?

Realizing this, Jinxiu also began to become confused.

"What's wrong with me?"

Jinxiu murmured to himself, with a complicated expression.

It can't be...she's starting to gradually accept this fact, right?

An Ning was still silent, but this time she looked back at the closed door for the first time. I don't know what he was thinking, but those eyes that used to be confused and panicked were much calmer this time.

But she still felt a little confused and hesitant, which kept her silent.

The girl's delicate and beautiful face also made the silence feel a little colder.

…

There was a faint chill lingering in the cold room.

Li Miaomiao, dressed in a white dress, sat quietly in the center of the room, with a delicate body and soft black hair, a beautiful face, exquisite facial features, and a cold temperament that made it impossible for anyone to think of infringement.

Lin Jiangnian stepped into the room and stopped in front of her. He didn't speak, just stared at her quietly.

Li Piaomiao was also silent, and neither of them spoke.

It's like being caught in some kind of confrontation!

It wasn't until a long time later that Lin Jiangnian approached Li Miaomiao again and stared at her quietly.

So close!

The distance between the two of them was very close.

Li Piaomiao seemed to finally react and raised her eyes to look at him. This time, she, who had always been cold and calm in the past, seemed to have a slightly unnatural expression.

Dodge slightly.

Even if it's subtle, but...

She still feels guilty!

Perhaps it was Lin Jiangnian's direct gaze that finally made her, who had always been cold and cold, unable to hold back any longer.

An atmosphere of silence lingered in the room, and Li Miaomiao slowly looked away, eyes slightly lowered.

Still silent.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Finally, Lin Jiangnian spoke.

The tone was calm.

Li Piaomiao did not answer.

Maybe he didn’t know how to speak.

"We promised to be together, but you broke your promise."

Lin Jiangnian looked at her and spoke calmly.

The voice was still calm, without much emotion, or even any tone of blame.

But the calmer the tone, the more unsettling it is.

Li Piaomiao seemed to tremble slightly under her slightly lowered eyes.

She remained silent.

Looking at Li Miaomiao, whose expression was no longer as strong as before, Lin Jiangnian originally had a lot to say, but in the end he didn't say a word.

He held out his hand.

Li Piaomiao glanced at it but had no reaction.

Lin Jiangnian grabbed her hand and held it in his palm. It was as cold as ever. When it touched the smooth skin, a biting chill came over and entered Lin Jiangnian's body along the palm of his hand.

To others, this cold air is extremely terrifying, and if you don't pay attention, it is very likely to hurt yourself. But for Lin Jiangnian, this is a rare 'tonic'.

His body greedily 'sucked' this cold air, sucked it into his body, wrapped it, refined it, and used it for his own use, constantly increasing the strength of his internal energy.

Along the way, Lin Jiangnian's strength has improved by leaps and bounds by absorbing the 'cold energy' from Li Miaomiao.

Li Piaomiao's injury was indeed not too serious, and was much better than Liu Su's. She only suffered some minor injuries, her breath was a little disordered, and her internal energy was severely depleted, but she was not seriously injured.

But even so, serious internal energy loss will have some impact on her body.

Of course, what's more important is... her reckless behavior!

An Ning's temperament was indeed learned from her.

The behavior of the master and servant is almost exactly the same.

Li Miaomiao remained silent, letting Lin Jiangnian hold her hand with her eyes slightly lowered.

Until Lin Jiangnian let go of her hand and looked at her calmly for a long time. In the end, he just said softly: "You should have a good rest."

Immediately, Lin Jiangnian stood up and walked towards the door.

At this time, Li Miaomiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head when he noticed Lin Jiangnian getting up and leaving.

Subconsciously he said: "Wait a minute."

Lin Jiangnian paused and turned around: "Is there anything else?"

At this moment, when he sensed that Lin Jiangnian was about to leave, Li Miaomiao's beautiful and cold face seemed to be in a trance, and an indescribable emotion flashed across her face.

Seems...a little panicked.

She stared at Lin Jiangnian blankly. After a long time, her tone was cold, she opened her mouth and spoke softly.

"Yes, I'm sorry." (End of chapter)
