"Your Highness, Prince Rui's uniform is too dazzling and could easily reveal your identity."

Seeing his master wearing the most dazzling Prince Rui uniform, Xu Tianxing stepped forward to suggest something.

"It's better to wear an ordinary general's uniform. This silver armor makes you majestic and handsome."

Hearing what Xu Tianxing said, Yun Wuhen quickly agreed: "Yes, Your Highness will give Miss Lin another sword dance, and I will make sure that Miss Lin can't take her eyes off it."

Ji Shen turned around suddenly, with a look of scrutiny and sharpness in his eyes: "How did you know she likes to watch sword dancing?"

"Have you performed a sword dance for her?"

"..." Looking at his master's increasingly cold eyes, Yun Wuhen shuddered and wished he could slap himself.

"Your Highness, in order to prove that his leg injury was fine, I made a few gestures with a tree branch in front of Fool Luo, and was praised a few times by Miss Lin."

"How did she praise you?" Ji Shen looked closely at Yun Wuhen.

Yun Wuhen was so frightened that his heart rose to his throat, and he said word for word: "Miss Lin, say yes, that's great. If it is paired with music, it would be even more perfect."

Ji Shen frowned and glanced at Yun Wuhen coolly: "Do you have a good memory?"

Yun Wuhen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled with a flattering look on his face.

"Your Highness, it's because Miss Lin has never seen you practice swordsmanship, so she praises your subordinate's poor sword dancing skills."

Ji Shen's eyes were cold. He could tell that Yun Wuhen's words were deliberately trying to please him. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense.

Since they met, Lin Lixia has seen him in his most miserable state, but has never seen him in his most beautiful state.

Should he show it off?

But would it seem too deliberate to do so?

Losing his identity?

On the way to the inn, Ji Shen kept thinking about this issue.

As night falls, everything is silent, and the inn is peaceful.

Two men wearing night clothes walked into the inn with ease.

One of the thieves quietly approached the window. He blew out a puff of smoke and carefully observed what was going on inside the house.

The two waited quietly for a while, then took advantage of the drug to take effect, used a knife to lift the door bolt, and slowly entered the house.

The man who was blowing the cigarette quietly touched the head of Luo Zisu's bed, twirled his hands in front of his eyes, and found that Luo Zisu was sleeping soundly, so he began to carefully rummage through his purse.

At this time, another man accidentally kicked over a chair, making a "clang" sound.

The two looked at each other, and the man blowing the smoke signaled with his hand that the other companion should be careful.

The companion pointed to Luo Zisu on the bed and waved the smoke in his hand, as if he was sleeping deeply after inhaling the smoke.

The two of them gathered all the valuable things on Luo Zisu's body and put them into their arms, and were about to leave.

The man who kicked over the chair pointed at Lin Lidong's room. Both of them were very moved.

The two of them repeated their old tricks, counting the time for the smoke to take effect, and slowly opened the door bolt.

Quietly walked into the room and saw Lin Lidong sleeping soundly. The two quickly took away Lin Lidong's money.

At this time, another man in black blew smoke into a room inside. After a while, he touched the inside. As soon as he stretched out his hand to lift the bed curtain, a needle flew out and pierced his face directly.

His eyes widened in horror, and he was frozen in place, unable to move even if he wanted to.

Another man in black came in. When he saw his companion didn't respond for a while, he lost his temper and stepped forward to find out.

Before the person got close, he found that the bed curtain was lifted from the inside. He immediately took out the dagger from his waist. Just as he raised his hand, a flying needle was inserted into his chest. He froze and couldn't move, and his eyes widened in fear. .

Seeing the two men in black who were poisoned by stiff breath, Lin Lixia was not sure how many companions they had, so she waited quietly for a moment.

It wasn't until she couldn't hear any movement in the house that she opened the bed curtains, dressed neatly, grabbed the bedside fire basket, and lit a candle.

Lin Lixia couldn't sleep well when she was away from home and staying in an inn. Lin Lidong was worried about her sister's safety. The brother and sister wanted a suite. Lin Lixia lived in the back room and Lin Lidong slept in the outer room.

Lin Lixia had already woken up the moment the man in black kicked over the chair.

She knew very well that she was no match, so she deliberately lowered the bed curtains and waited for the opportunity to make a move.

Fortunately, the two masked men in black were greedy. After stealing Luo Zisu and Lin Lidong, they also took the opportunity to touch her inside the house.

She held up the candle and illuminated the faces of the two masked men in black. She put the candle aside and walked quietly outside.

He grabbed the water from the teapot on the table and poured it directly on the face of his elder brother Lin Lidong.

Seeing that Lin Lidong was still sleeping deeply, for a moment, she didn't know what kind of drug the man in black had given her eldest brother.

She calmed down and pulled out two hemp ropes from their luggage.

Turn around and enter the house.

I want to tie up the two men in black first and then interrogate them properly.

She tried her best to tie their hands together. There was a noise outside the inn and someone was walking in her direction.

"Are there any accomplices?"

Lin Lixia murmured softly, put on her curtain hat, hunched over and hid in the door, looking out through the crack in the door.

She happened to see the inn waiter walking towards the room next to her with a lantern and several men.

Under the dim light, she only saw the person walking at the front, wearing a suit of silver armor, which was very dazzling under the light, and he walked majesticly with every step.

She wanted to see the man's face clearly, but she couldn't see clearly through the crack in the door, so she wanted to open the door slightly wider to see if these people were enemies or friends.

Unexpectedly, I accidentally hit the door bolt and made an unusual noise.

Several people immediately looked in her direction, and she was so frightened that her heart tightened.

Just as she was about to take a step back, the door was pushed open and she took a step back in fright.

"Miss Lin?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Lixia quickly lifted her hat and looked outside.

Looking into each other's eyes.

The two of them were stunned at the same time.

Lin Lixia did not expect that the majestic man she had just peeked at was none other than Lu Ji Shen, who was on crutches some time ago.

Ji Shen did not expect that in the middle of the night Lin Lixia was fully dressed and wearing a curtain hat, watching them cautiously.

"Lin Lixia, what happened?"

Lin Lixia calmed down, pointed to the room behind him and said, "Two thieves entered the room and knocked my eldest brother unconscious."

Hearing Lin Lixia say that there was a thief in the house, Ji Shen immediately felt his heart twisting. He stepped forward, held Lin Lixia's shoulders, and asked eagerly: "Are you injured?"

Seeing Ji Shen's burning eyes and feeling the cold hands on her shoulders, Lin Lixia pulled away uncomfortably.

She took a step back, distanced herself from Lu Jishen, and raised the 'Peach Shadow Chasing Soul' on her wrist. ’

"I slept relatively alert, and I used this to subdue them before they even took action."

Hearing Lin Lixia's words, Ji Shen, Yun Wuhen, Xu Tianxing, and the two guards behind him all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Shen lowered his eyes and looked at his hands, and then realized that his too eager behavior just now was very offensive to Lin Lixia.

"Lin Lixia, I didn't mean to take advantage of you. If you mind, I can..."

"I don't mind!" Lin Lixia interrupted Ji Shen.

Looking at the slightly trembling waiter on the side, he had a guess in his mind: "General Lu, can you come in for a chat?"
