Chapter 6 Goodbye the woman in red

After confirming the doubts in her heart, Zhiyuan looked slightly relaxed, glanced at the little maid in front of her, and said calmly: "Okay, if it's okay, you can go down first."

The little maid lowered her head: "Well, then Your Highness..."

Zhiyuan said calmly: "His Highness was frightened when he was assassinated. Please take good care of His Highness. Do you understand?"

"Slave, this slave knows..."

The little maid spoke tremblingly, then thought of something, lowered her head even further, and whispered: "Wan, what if, Your Highness, he wants to do something to this slave, this slave..."

"What, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Zhiyuan glanced at her: "If His Highness wants you to sleep with him, just refuse. If he dares to use force, I will make the decision for you."

"oh."

The little maid left anxiously.

Zhiyuan stood there, staring not far ahead, silent for a long time.

Although she had confirmed her doubts, she still felt a little uneasy for some reason.

After a moment, she suddenly turned her head and looked behind her, and said in a cold voice: "Help me do something."

There was no wind behind her, blowing the girl's skirt slightly.

Zhiyuan said expressionlessly: "Go to the temple where His Highness's accident happened..."

As soon as she finished speaking, a vague figure flashed behind her.

Then, it fell into silence.

…

inside the room.

After driving away the little maid, Lin Jiangnian breathed a sigh of relief. He gently rubbed his shoulders, but there was still a slight pain.

This was the slap I received from the little girl when I was ruining the temple.

That little girl looks soft and frail, but she didn't expect to be so strong!

Lin Jiangnian remembered this grudge for the time being.

Lifting his eyes and glancing at the decoction placed beside the bed, Lin Jiangnian hesitated and picked it up.

The bowl was filled with a faint aroma of herbs, which was refreshing. Even if he couldn't identify it, Lin Jiangnian could tell that the medicinal herbs in this bowl were valuable and the herbs were precious.

That's right, this is Prince Lin's Mansion, which is far more luxurious than he imagined.

As for whether someone might poison...

Lin Jiangnian squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then shook his head slightly.

Not too possible!

If the drug could kill him, those people wouldn't go to great lengths to assassinate Prince Lin outside the city.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it was the maid named Zhi Yuan who was trying to test her.

But if it was really a test, Lin Jiangnian's refusal to drink would only make her more suspicious.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian drank the decoction in the bowl in one gulp. After a while, the effect of the medicine gradually spread throughout his body, and Lin Jiangnian's body felt slightly warm. Then he felt his body felt smooth and smooth, and the vague depression in his chest was swept away, and his whole body relaxed.

Lin Jiangnian got up and walked around the room twice to make sure that his body had almost recovered and there was nothing serious.

Later, Lin Jiangnian began to think about his next plan.

Right now, he needs to have as little contact with the people in Prince Lin's Mansion as possible, especially the paper kite...

Lin Jiangnian had a hunch that the maid was most likely the biggest threat to his identity being exposed.

However, Lin Jiangnian was a little confused. That Zhiyuan was clearly just a maid, but when she met Lin Jiangnian before, although she seemed to have no problem, her words did not show any hint of respect for him, the prince of Linwang.

of respect and flattery.

And what she was wearing didn't look like a maid in the palace at all!

Something is very wrong!

Lin Jiangnian, who was idle in the room with nothing to do, wandered around the room while thinking. The interior decoration and display of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's room was naturally considered luxurious, and for Lin Jiangnian, it was enough to be an eye-opener.

But what surprised Lin Jiangnian the most was that he found a bookcase in a corner of the room with many books on it.

This made Lin Jiangnian a little surprised. It was widely rumored by outsiders that Prince Lin was an ignorant idiot. How could he still see books in Prince Lin's room?

Just for show?

Lin Jiangnian stepped forward and glanced at the bookshelf.

Soon, his eyes froze.

"The Secret History of Daning Palace"

""Stealing Jade and Stealing Fragrance""

""A Plum in a Golden Vase""

"..."

After a while, Lin Jiangnian came to his senses and suddenly realized that the rumors outside might be wrong.

This Prince Lin may not be an ignorant idiot... At least in certain aspects of literary appreciation, His Highness the Prince has a pretty good eye.

These are all treasures!

Lin Jiangnian glanced across the rows on the bookshelf, picked out a book at random, opened it and began to appreciate it with gusto.

vivid!

It also comes with text explanations, which makes it very immersive!

…

After a few random glances, Lin Jiangnian put the emperor's uncle back in his hand... He was only interested in it because it was novel. As a senior who has read countless things, these things did not arouse much interest in Lin Jiangnian.

Then, Lin Jiangnian's eyes fell on the other side of the bookshelf. There were several history books on it, including a copy of "The Laws of the Daning Dynasty".

When he saw the content above, Lin Jiangnian's eyes lit up slightly.

When he first arrived, Lin Jiangnian knew only a little about this strange world, strange environment and Prince Lin's Mansion.

He must find a way to check the information as soon as possible and get familiar with it as soon as possible. The contents of these books in front of him contain the knowledge that Lin Jiangnian urgently needs to know.

…

As the sky grew darker, Lin Jiangnian closed the book, put it back where it belonged, raised his eyes, and felt a little clearer in his heart.

After reading for several hours, Lin Jiangnian finally had a fairly clear understanding of the world structure.

Just as the memory in his mind said before, this is the Daning Dynasty, a strange unified dynasty!

It has been a hundred years since the founding of the Daning Dynasty. However, before that, it had only been unified in name. In fact, there were several small countries and powers in the surrounding areas. Until fifteen years ago, Lin Jiangnian's father, Lin Hengzhong,

They wiped out all the countries in one fell swoop and completed the true unification of the Daning Dynasty.

Because of this, Lin Hengzhong became the first king with a different surname to be granted the title of king in a hundred years since the founding of the Daning Dynasty.

Both his reputation and power have reached their peak, and his influence among the people and the military is extremely profound. In addition, King Lin has an eccentric personality, which offended many important officials in the court in his early years.

Because of this, it naturally caused uneasiness and fear in the court.

In the past few years, as the emperor became seriously ill and the prince supervised the country, there were gradually growing voices in the court to cut down the feudal vassals.

Of course, the target of cutting down the vassal was not only Lin Hengzhong, but also King Xu who was entrenched in the north of the Daning Dynasty. Unlike Lin Hengzhong, King Xu belonged to a hereditary vassal position, and the ancestor of King Xu followed his wife.

Zu Kaiguo made great military exploits and was granted the title of King Xu, guarding the northern territory of the Daning Dynasty and has been hereditary to this day.

But now, it has also become a worry for the Daning Dynasty.

However, compared to King Lin's publicity, King Xu, who is located in the north, is much more low-key. In addition, the north is a heavy area and cannot be easily moved.

In the past few years, the imperial court has been thinking about weakening the power and military power in the hands of Prince Lin. As Prince Lin's eldest son, Lin Jiangnian will inevitably be involved.

"So, the person who assassinated Prince Lin this time was sent by the imperial court?"

Lin Jiangnian had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't think of a result.

King Lin and Prince Lin have offended too many people, and there are countless people in the world who want their father and son to die. It is impossible to investigate with just this few clues.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian sighed.

Forget it, this is not something he should care about. He is just a fake prince. Now that he cannot protect himself, how can he care about other things?

Lin Jiangnian browsed through almost the entire bookshelf, and all he could understand was probably some basic information about the Daning Dynasty. However, Lin Jiangnian still found nothing about the Linwang Palace.

It seemed that he had to find a way to start from other places. The first thing that came to Lin Jiangnian's mind was today's little maid named Xiaozhu...

She seems like a good match?

At this moment, there was another knock on the door. Then the servant's voice came, "Your Highness, dinner is ready. Do you want to send it to your room, or..."

Lin Jiangnian just realized that he was a little hungry. He hadn't eaten anything all day since he woke up.
To be continued...
