son, don't mess around

Soon, Jinxiu came into the room carrying a basin of hot water.

She put the hot water on the table beside her and came to An Ning's side. Seeing An Ning in such a miserable state, her eyes turned slightly red.

Although she and An Ning did not see eye to eye on a daily basis, they were sisters after all and had a deep bond. Now that An Ning was injured like this, how could Jinxiu not be worried?

Looking at An Ning's pretty, pale face, Jinxiu was extremely anxious, but she couldn't help much at this moment and could only stand by and worry.

Especially when she saw the sword wound on An Ning's arm, Jinxiu couldn't help but gasp. It hurt just looking at it!

Faintly, she felt pain in her arm.

"Does it hurt?"

Jinxiu couldn't help but ask.

Facing Jinxiu's concern, An Ning did not respond. She lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

At this time, Lin Jiangnian used a towel dipped in hot water to help An Ning clean the blood off his arm.

Seeing this, Jinxiu stepped forward to help: "Let me do it!"

"Can you bandage a wound?"

Lin Jiangnian didn't even raise his head.

Jinxiu was stunned. She really didn't know how to do it. She wanted to help, but she didn't know how.

"Well, then what can I do?"

"Nothing to do."

Lin Jiang cleaned the blood off An Ning's arm with familiarity, cleaned the wound, disinfected it, and then re-bandaged the wound with clean gauze.

"Okay, don't touch water until the wound is healed. Rest for a few days and you will recover soon."

After doing all this, Lin Jiangnian looked up at An Ning.

The injury on her arm was not serious and would heal after a few days of rest, but it would probably take nearly half a month to fully recover.

An Ning lowered her head and said nothing.

"As for your internal injuries, you need to take good care of them during this period. I will have someone in the mansion bring you medicine tomorrow. Remember, you cannot use your internal energy during this period!"

An Ning's internal injuries were not too serious either. She had strong internal strength and could recover on her own. With the help of medication, there would not be any sequelae.

But the prerequisite is that she cannot use her internal energy during this period!
Fortunately, An Ning's internal strength was strong, otherwise it would be a question whether she could withstand the attack of the leader tonight!

After giving his instructions, Lin Jiangnian packed up and left. It was getting late, and An Ning, who was a little weak after the injury, needed to rest early.

Lin Jiangnian noticed that An Ning was a little reserved and nervous when facing him, so he didn't bother her anymore.

"You guys take a good rest, I'm going over first!"

Lin Jiangnian turned and left the room. He did not go back directly. It was late at night, but he still had a lot of things to do.

The assassins who tried to kill him tonight are all dead, so there is no way to capture them alive and interrogate the person who ordered them to do so.

But even if he is dead, we still have to investigate!

At the same time, the leader of the Heavenly God Sect also attracted Lin Jiangnian's attention!

He suddenly appeared in Linjiang City, his purpose was definitely not simple!
And why did he come for Lin Jiangnian and suddenly let An Ning go tonight? There is something strange about this!

Now that the matter in Linjiang City has come to an end, Lin Jiangnian is ready to leave here and go to Chuzhou Jiangnan. But before that, these hidden dangers must be resolved first.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night for many people!
The news that Prince Lin was attacked in the city quickly spread among the noble families in the city, causing panic and anxiety.

In the past few days, the Prince of Linwang has taken drastic actions against the noble families in Linjiang City, which has already made the noble families panic-stricken and terrified.

No one expected that the Prince Lin would be so ruthless and merciless.

Even King Lin’s army was deployed into the city!
Under such circumstances, who would dare to go against the Prince Lin's Mansion?
In addition, when all the noble families gathered at the Lin Wang Mansion to force the emperor to abdicate, their behavior was already excessive and unreasonable. Now facing the "revenge" of the Lin Wang's son, the noble families naturally have no words to say.

And at this time, there were people bold enough to assassinate Prince Lin!

This undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, making the already tense atmosphere even more severe!

Those noble families who were already in a state of panic became even more panicked... They were afraid that Prince Lin's Mansion would put the blame on them!

Now that they have angered Prince Lin's Palace, how can they expect to have good results? !
And this night is destined to be a busy night!
The city defense troops quickly found the bodies of the assassins, brought them back, and examined the identities of these people. The guards of the Linwang Mansion appeared in every corner of Linjiang City, monitoring the various families and keeping a close eye on every move in Linjiang City.

Arriving at the Prince's Palace, late at night.

A figure in white quietly landed in the inner courtyard and was about to walk back to the room.

"came back?"

A voice broke the quietness in the courtyard.

The white figure paused and turned around.

Under the eaves next to him, Lin Jiangnian was sitting by the railing, waiting for a long time.

Li Piaomiao looked at him quietly without saying anything.

Under the moonlight, the figure in white appeared even brighter, and the reflection was stretched out very long.

Lin Jiangnian's eyes fell on Li Piaomiao's cold and fair face: "Did you find him?"

Li Piaomiao's beautiful eyes darkened slightly, and after a moment, she said coldly: "No."

"An Ning's impulsiveness is indeed something she learned from you."

Lin Jiang sighed, stood up and walked towards the courtyard. As he approached, he smelled a faint smell of blood in the air. His face suddenly changed and he looked at Li Piaomiao: "Are you injured?!"

"No."

Li Piaomiao's answer was neither cold nor indifferent.

Lin Jiangnian's gaze fell on Li Piaomiao, looking her up and down to make sure that Li Piaomiao was not injured.

Then, his eyes fell on the sword in her hand. Only then did he realize... the bloody smell was coming from the sword.

"Did you kill someone?"

Li Piaomiao's eyes were calm, "Yes."

"Kill who?"

Li Piaomiao lowered her eyes, her expression still calm.

"Some damn people!"

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

"..."

"So, you didn't find the whereabouts of the leader, but you found a stronghold of the Celestial God Cult?"

It's quiet at night.

inside the room.

Lin Jiangnian looked at Li Piaomiao in astonishment.

Li Piaomiao, who was sitting opposite in a white dress, looked calm. She put down her sword and placed it on the table beside her.

"Did you kill them all?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at the cold face in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

Otherwise, she has to be the eldest princess!
Not long after they went out, they found a stronghold of the Celestial God Cult. Judging from the situation, none of those people would survive.

Li Piaomiao was obviously angry tonight!
When I left earlier, I was also angry.

If she finds the leader tonight, there will inevitably be a fierce battle.

However, the whereabouts of the leader was unknown. Instead, Li Piaomiao found a stronghold of the Heavenly God Cult, where more than a dozen remnants of the middle-level members of the Heavenly God Cult were located.

These unlucky guys naturally became the targets of Li Piaomiao's anger!
Come to think of it, those people must have died miserably!

However, Lin Jiangnian didn't take it to heart.

Even if Li Piaomiao did not take action, the people in Lin Wang Mansion would definitely wipe out the remnants of the Heavenly God Cult!
"That leader is indeed a little weird!"

Lin Jiangnian said: "His purpose in coming to Jiangcheng is unclear. It seems that he is coming for me, but..."

Lin Jiangnian had a vague guess in his mind, but he couldn't be sure.

"I'm afraid he encountered something special tonight, otherwise he wouldn't let An Ning go easily. As for what it was..."

Lin Jiangnian frowned. He didn't understand this point, but he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

The fact that the leader could let An Ning go obviously meant that he had something more attractive to him or something else. It might even be related to the Linjiang Annual Meeting...

Otherwise, the leader came here tonight for Lin Jiangnian. He wanted to take An Ning away, most likely to use An Ning to threaten Lin Jiangnian, but it didn't make sense for him to suddenly let An Ning go!

Li Piaomiao did not speak, but just listened quietly to Lin Jiangnian's analysis.

The expression on that originally cold face changed slightly when he heard the word An Ning.

"How is An Ning?"

"It's nothing serious, just a minor injury. I need to recuperate for a while."

Li Piaomiao's cold expression seemed to ease a little, but it was still very cold, and one could feel the coldness surging in her body at this moment.

At this moment, Lin Jiangnian, while watching the changes in Li Piaomiao's cold temperament, suddenly had an idea in his heart.

His eyes fell on Li Piaomiao's beautiful and cold face, and he suddenly said: "I have a plan..." Li Piaomiao and Lin Jiangnian looked at each other, and saw that Lin Jiangnian's eyes were slightly narrowed, and there seemed to be a gleam of light flashing.

"Do you want to avenge An Ning?"

"To vent your anger?"

"..."

Late at night, I arrived at the palace.

The front yard was still brightly lit.

In the backyard, the lights are gradually turned off and I fall asleep.

There were still faint yellow lights on in the courtyard and in the rooms.

"I am sleepy!"

An Ning spoke expressionlessly.

"I'm sleepy too!"

Jinxiu yawned and felt a little sleepy.

An Ning stopped talking and stared at her.

"I'll sleep with you tonight!"

Jinxiu said.

"Need not!"

"need."

Jinxiu said seriously, "You were injured today, I can't bear to leave you alone, I want to sleep with you!"

"I do not want!"

An Ning looked unnatural.

"As your sister, I must take care of you if you are injured!"

Jinxiu was confident and didn't give An Ning a chance to refuse: "It's decided anyway, I want to sleep in the same bed with you tonight!"

An Ning remained silent and looked at Jinxiu.

The twin sisters looked at each other like this.

In the end, An Ning responded.

She had a cold face and said coldly: "You are so boring!"

After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the bed, no longer paying attention to Jinxiu.

Seeing this, Jinxiu's eyes narrowed with a smile and her expression was happy.

No rejection!
That means I agree!

So Jinxiu followed excitedly.

I walked to the bed, took off my shoes and socks, took off my coat, turned off the lights in the room, and got into bed.

Soon, the room fell into darkness.

On the bed, the two sisters crawled under the quilt.

An Ning was sleeping on the inside, lying flat on the bed with her eyes closed, her face peaceful, her breathing steady, and she seemed to be soundly asleep.

But in fact, she was not asleep.

The thoughts in my mind were even more confused and could not calm down for a long time.

Can't sleep at all!

Close your eyes, and you can recall the scenes that happened before...

Suddenly, I felt a faint pain in the bandaged wound on my right hand.

It doesn’t hurt!
In the past, this little pain could be completely ignored by An Ning.

But for some reason, when I closed my eyes and saw His Highness's face in my mind, the originally insignificant pain seemed to be magnified many times.

Suddenly the pain became severe!

It doesn't feel like pain, but more like...

"Hey, are you asleep?"

Just when An Ning's thoughts were in confusion, Jinxiu's voice came to his ears.

In the darkness, Jinxiu lay on her side and looked at An Ning.

She couldn't sleep either!

I was feeling sleepy just now, but after I lay down on the bed, the sleepiness disappeared.

Looking at the peace in front of her, many thoughts suddenly arose in Jinxiu's mind.

An Ning didn't open her eyes and didn't pay any attention to Jinxiu.

"Don't pretend, I know you're not asleep."

Seeing that An Ning ignored her, Jinxiu rolled her eyes and said, "How can anyone fall asleep so quickly?"

In the darkness, Jinxiu looked at An Ning's slightly pale face and felt distressed: "Does the wound hurt?"

no respond.

"You shouldn't have been so reckless tonight. The assassins had already run away, so why did you chase them? You were always like this before, completely disregarding your own safety and always taking risks..."

In the darkness, Jinxiu's faint voice was heard.

"Even now, you are still like this. The princess has told you so many times, but you still don't change..."

"You are indeed a great martial artist, but there are many people in the world who are more powerful than you. If something happens to you one day, what will the princess and I do?"

Jinxiu muttered in a low voice, her tone full of nervousness and anxiety.

It can be heard that she was a little confused tonight. An Ning's injury had a great impact on her!
On weekdays, An Ning looked weak, timid, and afraid to show up in public. But once she started to fight, she seemed to be desperate!

Completely different from her usual image!
How could Jinxiu not worry about this?

In the darkness, An Jing listened quietly to Jin Xiu chattering in her ear, without saying a word.

Until I heard Jinxiu's words.

"Your Highness was worried about you when you were injured today, right?"

These words made An Ning, who had her eyes closed, suddenly open them.

A hint of panic flashed across her eyes.

Even she herself didn't know why she felt inexplicably flustered, as if she was... guilty.

Your Highness, are you worried about her?

As if she recalled the look on His Highness's face when he saw her injured not long ago, An Ning gradually became a little dazed.

Jinxiu didn't seem to notice the change in An Ning's expression. She continued to speak softly: "When you were injured, His Highness must have been very worried about you. When you went to chase the assassin earlier, His Highness was worried about your safety and went to find you alone..."

"When His Highness was bandaging your wound just now, he looked at you with a nervous and worried look..."

Jinxiu said softly.

But An Ning's expression had changed.

An expression of nervousness, panic and helplessness emerged on her fair and delicate face.

She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, then she turned her head subconsciously and met Jinxiu's eyes.

In the darkness, the two sisters looked at each other.

Very close!

As if they had a telepathic connection, both of them could see what was in each other's eyes.

At this moment, An Ning's eyes suddenly became extremely flustered.

And Jinxiu's clear and calm eyes seemed to be able to see through her.

"You're my sister!"

"Even though you won't admit it, we are sisters as close as blood!"

"We have been together day and night for so many years, there are many things you can't hide from me."

"For example..."

Jinxiu suddenly paused, looked calmly at An Ning who was at a loss at the moment, and spoke softly.

The tone was also very calm.

"You like His Highness too, right?"
