Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

When he saw this crack on the tree trunk, Lin Jiangnian had a look of surprise in his eyes.

It worked!

These days, he practiced basic skills in the courtyard during the day, listened to Senior Li explaining the world's martial arts knowledge in the Ruyi Building in the afternoon, and made progress under his guidance.

In the evening, I practice the Xuanyang Heart Method in my room.

Lin Jiangnian works very hard.

He hardly slacked off, and with these days of hard work, his body began to change.

The most obvious change is probably that he has become "black"!

With practicing in the sun every day, Lin Jiangnian was obviously much darker than before.

The original white, delicate, and sickly look no longer existed, but was replaced by a healthy white complexion.

It's a little less girly and dandy, and a little more solid.

Many servants in the house could clearly feel the changes in His Royal Highness, and they were all dumbfounded.

In addition to the change in appearance, Lin Jiangnian can also feel that his body has become much stronger.

Previously, Lin Jiangnian's body could not be said to be powerless, but in fact it was not much better. Even among ordinary people, it was extremely ordinary.

But as he continued to exercise and practice hard these days, Lin Jiangnian could clearly feel that his physical fitness had skyrocketed. His muscles all over his body had become much stronger, and even his strength was much stronger.

If it were now, facing Xu Lan like last time, Lin Jiangnian wouldn't need to be so embarrassed and could easily beat her.

Lin Jiangnian is very confident!

At this moment, looking at the cracks on the tree trunk in front of him, Lin Jiangnian became more confident.

After practicing this punch for days, who can stop it?

Just when Lin Jiangnian was still proud, a slight sighing voice came from behind him.

"Your Highness's punch was powerful enough, but it was not fully utilized. It's a pity!"

Lin Jiangnian turned around, and behind him stood Lin Qingqing in a long gown.

Lin Qingqing looked at Lin Jiangnian, then at the tree in front of her, and shook her head slightly: "His Highness's punches focus too much on the surface, deliberately seeking to use all the strength of the body, but ignoring His Highness's greatest advantage."

"biggest advantage?"

Lin Jiangnian was confused: "What is it?"

"Xuanyang Heart Method."

Lin Jiangnian was startled and thoughtful.

"Your Highness, listen to me and try again."

Lin Qingqing spoke softly: "Qi sinks into the Dantian, concentrates on closing the breath, and condenses all the Qi in the body into one point..."

Lin Jiangnian closed his eyes and began to follow Lin Qingqing's instructions in his mind, gradually gathering all his energy into the center of his fist.

At this moment, Lin Jiangnian felt that his fist had an explosive momentum and was faintly hot.

It seemed like this punch was so powerful that it could destroy the world.

"Punch!"

Just when the momentum reached a critical point at a certain moment, Lin Qingqing suddenly let out a soft drink.

Lin Jiangnian seemed to tremble all over, a refreshing breeze of enlightenment flowed into his body, and he subconsciously punched out again.

"boom!"

"Crack!"

There was a loud bang.

As Lin Jiangnian punched out, the bowl-thick tree in front of him suddenly broke and fell.

Lin Jiangnian opened his eyes, with a flash of astonishment in his eyes, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

this……

What did he do?

Is he already so fierce?

Lin Jiangnian stared at the broken tree and then at the fist in his hand, dazed for a long time.

I thought that being able to crack a tree with one punch was already very powerful, but it turns out...

Can it be more powerful? !

"Your Highness, remember to use your own advantages flexibly. When the external skills are combined with the inner skills, the power will be doubled..."

Lin Qingqing's reminder came to his ears, and Lin Jiangnian was thoughtful.

…

After a while.

"worn out!"

Lin Jiangnian sat on the ground again, panting.

However, this time his face looked much better, except for being a little pale, there was nothing unusual about it.

The yard in front of Lin Jiangnian was in a mess.

Several trees were lying in a mess in the courtyard, leaning crookedly, as if they had been smashed by someone.

All of this is naturally the result of Lin Jiangnian.

Seeing this scene, Lin Jiangnian was very pleased.

However, the price is also heavy.

Weak, hand hurts!

The body feels empty, as if it has been drained, and there is an illusion of kidney deficiency.

Lin Jiangnian knew that it was the sequelae of excessive exercise.

Just now, he was eager to experiment and took action regardless of Lin Qingqing's obstruction, which eventually resulted in his body being hollowed out.

Very weak!

besides……

Lin Jiangnian looked down at his fist, which was red and slightly stained with blood.

injured!

But it's not a big problem.

"Your Highness has achieved some success in martial arts now, but you still need to study hard and practice hard in order to make greater progress!"

Lin Qingqing glanced at Lin Jiangnian, the shock in her eyes getting stronger. And...not only was he shocked that His Highness actually persisted?

His Highness practices martial arts every day these days, almost regardless of rain or shine. His perseverance is unbelievable.

What shocked Lin Qingqing even more was His Highness's martial arts talent. How long have you been practicing martial arts and you already have such strength?

His Highness' talent was indeed inherited from the prince.

I don’t know what those guys outside who are laughing at you and saying that His Highness is a idiot and ignorant will look like if they know this.

Presumably, you will be shocked and stunned, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Qingqing's eyes felt a little happy, and she quickly calmed down her mind. Then she thought of Sister Zhiyuan's instructions, her eyes were complicated, and she sighed secretly in her heart.

Sister Zhiyuan...

For Prince Lin's Mansion and for the princess's last wish, she has made too many sacrifices!

…

"Your Highness, does it hurt?"

In the courtyard, after Lin Qingqing left.

Xiaozhu stood carefully beside His Highness and helped bandage the wound on His Highness's hand.

When she saw the wound on His Highness's hand, she was slightly shocked and a little distressed.

...Your Highness must be in pain, right?

Carefully and unskilledly, but very conscientiously, I helped His Highness bandage his hand, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, your hand is injured. Try not to be so...dangerous in the past two days!"

Thinking of the scene in the courtyard before, Xiaozhu was shocked.

She saw with her own eyes that His Highness broke a tree with one punch... so powerful!

Your Highness, are you already so powerful?

The little maid's eyes were full of shock.

Lin Jiangnian lowered his head and looked at his palm. It was carefully bandaged by the little maid. It could be seen that she was very attentive.

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Lin Jiang young shook his head lightly, and when he was about to stand up, another figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

uninvited guest.

Xu Lan rushed in with brisk steps.

When she saw Lin Jiangnian and Xiaozhu in the pavilion, she was about to speak, and when her eyes fell on the courtyard and saw a mess in the courtyard, she was startled, with a puzzled look on her face.

"What, what's going on?"

She walked into the yard and looked at the mess on the ground and the tree that was broken and crooked and fell to the ground. There was an incredible look in her eyes. She turned back and stared at Lin Jiangnian: "Did you do it?"

"no."

Lin Jiangnian shook his head.

Xiaozhu on the side opened his eyes wide and looked up at His Highness in confusion.

This, this was clearly done by His Highness?

Why did Your Highness lie?

But soon, Xiaozhu noticed that His Highness glanced at her with a meaningful look and shook his head slightly at her.

Xiaozhu blinked innocently and blankly.

Although she didn't know what was going on, Xiaozhu nodded obediently.

His Highness likes obedient maids, well...she wants to be obedient.

"..."

"call!"

Seeing Lin Jiangnian shaking his head, Xu Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It scared her to death!

She almost thought Lin Jiangnian did it.

There are a few leaning trees in the courtyard. Although they are not strong, but if you want to do this, your martial arts must be strong.

Although Xu Lan can do it, it won't be so easy. To have such ability, one's martial arts must be at least close to the ninth level.

How long has this guy Lin Jiangnian just been practicing martial arts?

How could he have such ability?

That's right, it can't be him!

Thinking of this, Xu Lan felt relieved and glanced at the yard again: "Then, what is going on?"

"Lin Qingqing did it."

Lin Jiangnian directly threw the blame on Lin Qingqing.

"I see!"

Xu Lan also knows Lin Qingqing and knows that she is a person close to Zhiyuan and a guard of the palace, and her martial arts skills are not weak.

When she was about to continue saying something, she saw the little maid named Xiaozhu looking at her with big innocent eyes.

But for some reason, the look in her eyes seemed a little... strange?

"What's wrong?"

Xu Lan was confused: "Is there something on my face?"

"No, no..."

Xiaozhu turned his head slightly nervously and panicked. Just when he was about to explain something in a slight panic, Lin Jiangnian's voice came from the side.

"Xiaozhu, you go down first."

"oh."

Xiaozhu was relieved and trotted away with his head lowered.

She was afraid that if she ran slower, it would be exposed... His Highness was so good that he actually deceived Miss Xu.

"What's up with her?"

Xu Lan looked at Xiaozhu's leaving figure strangely.

"I don't know, maybe I'm feeling spring-like."

Lin Jiangnian was talking nonsense.

"Sichun?"

Xu Lan glanced at the courtyard, the sun was shining brightly.

The sun is scorching in the sky, autumn is not far away, spring has passed long ago, how can we miss spring?

"etc……"

Xu Lan frowned slightly: "Xiao Zhu Sichun, what? Isn't she your maid?"

As if she realized something, Xu Lan's face changed slightly: "Did you do something to Xiaozhu?!"

"what are you thinking?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her: "Can you think of something healthy in your mind?"

"Something healthy?"

Xu Lan was startled, then turned slightly red, and said angrily: "What are you talking about?"

After a pause, he said angrily: "Then Xiaozhu is not your personal maid now? How can he escape from your clutches by taking care of you all day long?"

"Don't you have any idea about her?!"

As he spoke, Xu Lan stared into Lin Jiangnian's eyes, feeling slightly unspeakably worried for some reason.

"No!"

Lin Jiangnian shook his head.

"Liar!"

Xu Lan sneered.

"What did I lie to you about?"

Lin Jiangnian gave her a strange look: "I'm not interested in underdeveloped little girls."

The sneer on Xu Lan's face froze slightly, and she subconsciously looked down.

The next second she reacted, she instantly became angry.

"You surnamed Lin, are you criticizing Sang and Huai?!"

"..."

In the courtyard, it soon became quiet.

"Why are you here again today?"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at Xu Lan who calmed down and asked.

"I want you to take care of it?!"

Xu Lan hummed and spoke, the blush of anger on her delicate face had not faded yet, she glared at him angrily: "I'll come if I want!"

"Okay, as you wish."

Lin Jiangnian didn't want to argue with her, and since she had helped before, he let her do it.

"By the way, have you bought all the wine and materials I asked you to help buy?"

Lin Jiangnian brought up business.

"Huh, no!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Lan seemed to still be angry and snorted coldly.

"Really not?"

"No!"

Xu Lan stared at him with a fierce face.

"Are you still angry?"

Lin Jiangnian sighed. He was small-chested and not very broad-minded. He was stingy?

"I want you to take care of it?"

Xu Lan was obviously still thinking about what happened before. Seeing Lin Jiangnian's indifferent attitude, he was so angry!

How many times had this guy taunted her?

He teases her every time, she... is so small? !

Is it really small?

Xu Lan couldn't help but lowered her head and looked again...and fell silent.

After a while, she realized what she was doing, her face turned red.

...Just, even if it is indeed a bit small.

so what?

Have you eaten at his house?

Can he speak? !

Lin Jiangnian naturally noticed Xu Lan's movements, and saw her crimson and gritted expression, and quickly guessed what she was thinking.

He coughed lightly: "Actually, cough...you don't have to feel too inferior..."

Xu Lan suddenly raised his head: "What did you say?!"

Lin Jiangnian thought for a while, "I have a unique secret recipe here... do you want it?"

"A unique secret recipe?"

Xu Lan was startled. When she saw Lin Jiangnian's eyes glancing at her, she instantly realized something.

Immediately his face turned red and he said angrily: "I don't need that kind of thing!"

"You really don't want it?"

"don't want!"

"Forget it."

Lin Jiangnian felt a little regretful.

"..."

Xu Lan's face turned red with anger, and her chest kept moving up and down.

They all seemed very angry.

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding you!"

Seeing that she was about to fall out completely, Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "I was wrong just now. Do I apologize to you?"

"snort!"

Xu Lan stared at him with fierce eyes and gritted teeth: "I don't accept it."

"Then how do you accept it?"

"think it yourself!"

"..."

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows, why did he feel something was wrong?

Why does Xu Lan look like an angry girlfriend?

Waiting for him to coax?

coax?

Lin Jiangnian shook his head.

impossible.

He sighed: "How about I ask you to scold me back?"

Xu Lan's face showed a fierce look: "I want to hit you!"

"That won't work!"

Lin Jiangnian immediately shook his head and refused.

"..."

Looking at the angry Xu Lan in front of him, Lin Jiangnian sighed again and shook his head gently: "Actually, you don't have to be like this."

"When you're not angry, you're actually quite pretty!"

Xu Lan, who was still angry, suddenly heard Lin Jiangnian's praise and was a little confused!

Some people didn't react... This guy actually praised him?

What the hell?

The sun rises from the west?

At this time, Lin Jiangnian looked at Xu Lan in front of him: "You said that you, a girl, have nothing to do all day long like a man, is it appropriate?"

"I want you to take care of it?"

Xu Lan still glared at him fiercely.

"Of course I can't control it, but..."

Lin Jiangnian shook his head and said: "I just made a small sincere suggestion... Actually, I think you are quite good-looking, but you dress like a man all day long... It's hard not to let me look like this. Treat you as a brother..."

Xu Lan has a fiery personality, and even his clothes are extremely masculine. Standing in front of him, he looks like a man with a delicate face.

Such a good girl, dressed like a brother, it was inevitable that Lin Jiangnian would not be able to help but criticize her.

Inappropriate!

Xu Lan was startled, then looked down at her outfit in confusion... Is this really the case?

"Girls should look like girls. If you take care of yourself and imitate women's behavior, you will definitely look very good... Your appearance is not bad, except..."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her breasts inadvertently, realized what he was saying, and quickly covered it up: "You, Miss Xu, are naturally beautiful. If you dress up like an ordinary woman, you will definitely amaze all living beings, and you will be the best in Linjiang City... just by Linjiang." Those courtesans in the city’s brothels are completely incomparable to you..."

Praising someone is free of charge, so it is not difficult for Lin Jiangnian, he just says it casually.

However, Xu Lan was completely stunned.

The originally angry face gradually solidified, and was replaced by a fair face that gradually turned red.

This, this guy...is praising her?

Compliment her on her beauty? !

Accident!

Very unexpected!

This guy actually complimented her, and it sounded like... a sincere compliment?

Xu Lan was a little confused for a moment, her face was red, her head was lowered, and she was at a loss.

The hot-tempered Miss Xu had disappeared.

It wasn't until a moment later that she seemed to come back to her senses. She bit her lower lip and glared at Lin Jiangnian with a blushing face: "You, stop talking nonsense..."

"Just, even if you praise me, I won't forgive you so easily!"

Duplicity!

Lin Jiangnian saw through this girl's underwear at a glance, and it was obviously very useful to him. He praised her for being so happy... and pretending?

Talk back!

However, Lin Jiangnian did not expose her: "I am not praising you, this is a sincere suggestion... Do you want to think about it?"

"No, I don't want it!"

Xu Lan spoke subconsciously, feeling her face getting hotter and her whole body trembling slightly.

"You, stop talking nonsense!"

"I, I will ignore you and go back..."

For some reason, Xu Lan felt nervous and extremely shy, and had the urge to escape on the spot.

So, she turned around and ran away.

But as soon as he turned around, he seemed to think of something again, and let out a weak snort.

"Go get the stuff yourself!"

After saying that, she ran away without looking back.

Lin Jiangnian looked at the little girl who turned around and ran away with a smile. She was a bit cute!

Then, he thought of something again and became slightly suspicious.

During this period of time together, Miss Xu Lan's temperament and character were almost revealed by him. She is clearly a silly young lady with a bit of scheming, but not much!

Could such an innocent and even a bit silly Miss Xu be the murderer of Prince Lin's death?

It looks a bit different no matter what.

Lin Jiangnian was thoughtful.

…

In the afternoon, Lin Jiangnian went to Ruyi Building as usual. He came back before dark, had dinner, and then went into the room.

See no one.

The servants in the house have long been accustomed to this.

His Highness has always been withdrawn, and it was difficult for his servants to get close to him in the past. Even though His Highness has undergone a lot of changes recently, His Highness still doesn't like anyone approaching his room.

Of course, even the servants in the house wouldn’t dare!

Until nightfall, a figure appeared in the yard as usual, came to the door skillfully, opened the door, and entered.

As soon as he stepped into the room, a strong smell of strong alcohol hit his face, accompanied by a burst of mellow aroma of alcohol.

Permeates the entire room.

The woman in red's eyes lit up instantly as she just stepped into the room.
