The Bixiao Courtyard was very quiet, but red candles were brightly lit in the house. Chuntao and Cuizhu loved to make a lot of noise, and they dragged Lin Yushu and Shilan to play mahjong together, and they played until Shilan was too sleepy to open her eyes.

The three little girls happily greeted Lin Yushu, took the big red envelopes given by Lin Yushu and went back to rest.

In order to maintain her silly image, Lin Yushu pretended to be silly and smiled all day. She was exhausted and her consciousness became blurred after lying on the bed for a while.

"Gah!"

A very light sound came into Lin Yushu's ears, as if someone had opened the lock on the window, and Lin Yushu suddenly disappeared from her sleepiness.

He reached into his arms with one hand and took out a bottle of bone-eroding water, and reached under the pillow with the other hand and grasped a dagger.

The General's Mansion was the beginning of her nightmare in her previous life. As long as she was in the General's Mansion, Lin Yushu could not feel at ease, so she always carried poison with her and a sharp dagger under her pillow.

The window was opened little by little, and the person came into her room very quietly and silently like a cat.

The stupid servants in the yard could not be relied upon, but Cuizhu was guarding outside the bedroom today, so she could still protect herself. However, if Cuizhu was woken up, she was afraid that the visitor would hurt her.

Lin Yushu secretly made up her mind to hit the target with one strike, subdue the man as quickly as possible, and never give him a chance to resist. Only in this way could she and Cuizhu have a chance of survival.

The person slowly approached Lin Yushu, and she could even smell a hint of woody aroma mixed with blood... Wait, why does this smell so familiar?

Before she could think about it, the man's hand had already reached out to Lin Yushu's shoulder. Lin Yushu did not hesitate at all. She raised the hand hidden in her arms and suddenly splashed the blood-like bone-eroding water towards the man's face.

The man was slightly stunned, but his body reacted extremely quickly and he quickly moved to the side. The bone-eroding water just brushed past the tip of his nose, and before he could open his mouth to speak, a cold light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and a sharp dagger flew towards him with murderous intent.

The man was neither surprised nor angry. A smile appeared on his face under the black cloth. He raised his right hand, stretched out two fingers and gently pinched the dagger, which stopped an inch away from his forehead.

Lin Yushu thought to herself, Oh no, this guy is so skilled, and I caught him off guard without hurting him at all!

Just as Lin Yushu's mind was racing, considering whether to perish along with him.

"it's me."

Hearing this voice, Lin Yushu's panicked heart suddenly calmed down. It turned out to be the man in black that she met in Wangshan Village.

But...he actually broke into my boudoir in the middle of the night?

Lin Yushu was speechless. She had only seen this bloody plot in the picture book that Chuntao borrowed from the maid in the other courtyard. How could she actually encounter such a clichéd thing!

Lin Yushu tightened her collar, covered her legs with the quilt, and sat on the bed, thinking, what would the lady in the picture book be like at this moment? Should she be more nervous, after all, it concerns her reputation...

Nan Rongjing looked at Lin Yushu, who had just fought with him, and was suddenly stunned, wondering, isn't this little girl afraid of him?

"What brings you here?"

Lin Yushu gave up. She was not an ordinary lady. She had been married in her previous life and had died tragically. She could not pretend to be a delicate and graceful lady.

Nan Rongjing looked at Lin Yushu's indifferent tone, and a smile appeared on his usually stiff face. The dagger was spinning and flying at his fingertips. He thought to himself that Lin Yushu was really like him in some ways.

"Have you forgotten your deal with me?"

How could she forget, Lin Yushu felt from the bottom of her heart that the man in front of her was the first person she had never met since her rebirth and whom she had no idea how to deal with.

Lifting a corner of the quilt, Lin Yushu opened a secret compartment on the bed board, which contained many medicine bottles. Lin Yushu took out a bottle and threw it directly to the man in black.

Nan Rongjing took the medicine bottle, opened the lid and sniffed it, and was surprised!

The taste of this pill is extremely similar to the pill that Old Master Shen gave him to treat him. This Lin Yushu is really capable!

"This medicine can temporarily suppress the onset of the poison, but it cannot completely detoxify it. I still need some time to research the antidote."

"Thank you."

Hearing this, Lin Yushu was slightly stunned. The antidote was originally given to her under duress by him, and this man had obviously been killing people for years, otherwise there wouldn't be a lingering smell of blood on his body. Such a cruel person actually said thank you.

"If you need my help, just let me know."

The man's deep and hoarse voice sounded bewitching, but Lin Yushu was not fooled.

"You once said that I would help you detoxify you, and you would do something for me. Now that the poison has not been detoxified, you have to do something for me first. Aren't you afraid that I will regret it later?"

"Oh, you think too much. Miss Lin seems to be glamorous on the surface, but only you know what she is like behind the scenes. I am just afraid that you will die before the antidote is made, and then I will lose. I am helping you only because I am afraid that you will die too early."

Those few words seemed to be wrapped in ice, causing Lin Yushu to shiver.

"I am fine, please don't worry."

Lin Yushu can solve the troubles around her by herself. Asking this person for help would be like courting disaster. Lin Yushu doesn't want to provoke him.

Safe and sound? Nan Rongjing sneered. Thinking of Lin Minglang's recent actions in the court, he was afraid that this young lady would not be safe and sound for a few days.

He was too lazy to talk any more, and turned around to escape through the window. He opened the window, and faint moonlight shone into the girl's boudoir. The dim light seemed to ignite the incense burner in the room, and a faint fragrance wafted into the air.

Turning around, he saw Lin Yushu's frail figure leaning against the bed. Her creamy face looked a little pale, as if she couldn't stand the cool air outside the window. Her thick eyelashes trembled slightly, which made Nan Rongjing think of the injured deer he encountered during the hunting.

Humph, it's just an illusion. This woman is so cunning, it would be more appropriate to call her a fox.

"Don't meet other men easily, especially those from the East Palace."

After saying that, before Lin Yushu could react, the man had already flown out of the window and disappeared.

East Palace?

Lin Yushu was surprised. When they met for the first time, Lin Yushu guessed that this person was of extraordinary background, but she didn't expect that he could find out about the Eastern Palace.

He was right. Lin Yushu’s biggest crisis right now came from the East Palace.

The ridiculous marriage that the Second Madam tried so hard to arrange was with the Crown Prince of the current dynasty, Nan Baixuan!

Logically speaking, the prince is so noble. If she could marry him as his princess, when he ascends the throne in the future, she would be the queen who rules the country. This is a good thing that many daughters of officials cannot even dream of.

However, Crown Prince Nan Baixuan was an exception.

The prince is the queen's legitimate son and was born weak. There were rumors among the people that the prince had been seriously ill since childhood and would not live past the age of ten. But unexpectedly, the prince is now twenty-five and still alive, and has even begun to think about getting married.

In the early years, the Queen did not agree with the Crown Prince having women around her, fearing that it would damage his body. However, there were rumors that the Crown Prince was actually unable to have sex due to illness. Not to mention how long he could live, the fact that he could not have sex and had no offspring alone meant that he would definitely not be able to keep his position as Crown Prince.

If the current emperor had not taken the Queen's maternal family into consideration, the Crown Prince would have been deposed long ago.

And now the prince wants to get married, not because his condition has improved, but because he is terminally ill and wants to get married to bring good luck!

Lin Yushu is the bride that the Lin family prepared for the prince! !
