Seeing the hesitation in his Highness's face, Lin Li quickly added:
"Your Highness, please listen to my explanation. I know that the sect has a bad reputation in this world, but those rumors in the martial arts world are actually not true..."
But just as Lin Li was speaking.
His eyes unconsciously fell on Shangguan Jin's hand.
To be exact, it was on that table.
Her Royal Highness used her hand as a pen and ash as ink to draw two words on the table.
——Everlasting brightness.
"Your Highness..."
Lin Li never thought about the royal family which was irreconcilable with the sect.
There is actually someone who can write the real name of his own sect without any mistakes.
And he is the emperor's closest person.
"Locked up in the deep palace, more time to read."
"After all, he still knows something about the underworld."
Shangguan Jin shook off the dust on his hands and nodded slightly at Lin Li.
But the tenderness of this moment.
But it always reminds Lin Li of Xiao Yun'er.
"In this case, things will be much easier."
I quickly threw the naive and romantic little guy in the inn at the foot of the mountain out of my mind.
Lin Li bowed to Shangguan Jin and said:
"I heard that the royal family has been in trouble recently."
"Brother Lin Li, if you say this in front of others, you will lose your head."
Shangguan Jin reminded.
However, the young man smiled:
"But is His Highness someone else?"
Shangguan Jin didn't answer, but just used his sleeve to cover the momentary upward smile on the corner of his mouth.
27. People in the same situation sympathize with each other
"Father has been ill lately, and has been unable to devote his attention to state affairs."
Shangguan Jin kept his hands on his thighs the whole time, and the white fur fluttered on his body with his breathing, embellishing the ups and downs of His Highness's mood at the moment.
"My brothers and cousins are fighting for that position, and there are countless open and covert struggles in the court and the country."
"In this case, Your Highness, do you intend to get involved?"
Let’s get straight to the point.
The teacup being stroked slowly turned in Lin Li's hands.
As for the affairs of the court and the government, Lin Li still thinks that he should not interfere if possible, after all, he is too busy to do so.
"Sister Chu told you?"
Shangguan Jin looked at Lin Li who was serious.
The young man put down his teacup and said with a bow:
"My guess."
"Don't mention this matter in front of others."
It was rare to see His Highness look serious, so Lin Li rationally lowered his voice.
It didn't seem like she was really angry, but rather it seemed like she cared about the boy's safety.
Seeing the warning in His Highness's eyes, Lin Li smiled gently.
"From ancient times to the present, the emperor has always been the most powerful one in the world, and tradition cannot be lost."
If Xiao Yuner were here.
A commoner with the same appearance as Shangguan Jin would probably say openly:
The position of the emperor has always been held by a man with a stick, so there is no reason for him to be an empress.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is still a member of the royal family and needs to maintain the reputation of the royal family.
"You care about tradition, but who cares about you?"
The young man walked slowly towards the side window, revealing a small hole in his eyes, and through the gap he gazed at the bustling Xuanyi City.
This northern city is bustling with activity.
The prosperity of the world is vividly displayed in the constantly rotating wheels.
The crowds were surging.
No one should have noticed the occasional gaps between the high-rise buildings of the hotel.
Lin Li was silent for a moment and then whispered:
"Let's not talk about that. Your Highness, when do you think this storm will be over?"
"The fight for the throne may be quite tragic. Not to mention me, even among the old officials in the court, it's hard to say who will have the last laugh."
A helpless smile appeared on Shangguan Jin's face.
Whenever she thought of the intrigues in the court, she would feel a headache.
When my father was in good health, we were all like a family.
It was just a momentary change, but it has exposed all his wolfish ambitions.
If possible, she certainly doesn't want to see brothers fighting and killing each other.
But throughout history, which emperor has not had his hands stained with blood, especially the blood of his loved ones?
"Since this has been going on for so long, Your Highness really has no plans at all?"
Different from Shangguan Jin’s feelings.
Lin Li came here at this moment just to seek a win-win cooperation.
He needs Shangguan Jin's attitude.
A firm, justifiable attitude.
"You seem to want me to take action."
Shangguan Jin looked at Lin Li and said softly.
"That's not the case. I just think that a small Xuanyi City is not something that Your Highness can turn a blind eye to. Although the affairs of the court and the country have nothing to do with us cultivators, they are still matters of the world."
"And since it is a matter of the world, Your Highness cannot avoid it."
After all these years, Lin Li finally summed up a philosophy of life:
——The more people want to stay out of it, the more likely they are to be at the center of it.
This is not only what Shangguan Jin said, but also a true portrayal of Lin Li's current situation.
"I understand. I also know that my father sent me here just to protect me temporarily."
"But I still refuse to believe that those brothers who used to draw with me and play with me have all changed now."
Shangguan Jin sighed. Although she was still a young lady, her cheeks were tinged with a heaviness that did not belong to her.
These things shouldn't have been something she had to consider.
However, the turmoil in recent years has intensified, and even the government and the opposition have become battlefields for power struggles.
At a time when his father was seriously ill, the undisguised ambitions of his brothers had already torn Shangguan Jin's family into pieces.
"Many things in this world are not what we want. Most of the time, we are pushed."
Lin Li brought a bench and sat casually opposite Shangguan Jin.
So when His Highness raised his head, he saw Lin Li with his neck tilted and his chin in his hands.
The distance between the two people suddenly shortened a lot.
Shangguan Jin could even feel the other person's breathing.
I think men and women should not touch each other.
She was about to retreat without leaving a trace.
As a result, Lin Li, who was holding the teacup, said briefly:
"Don't move."
At this moment, Shangguan Jin's heart seemed to skip a beat.
She seemed to sense something.
As a result, the sharp sound of breaking through the air shattered the windowsill of the pavilion.
Countless dark purple daggers flew through the air, but all stopped about an inch behind Lin Li.
It was as if there was a transparent barrier, and these deadly hidden weapons could not go any further.
Countless dark shadows like maggots attached to the bones actually stuck to the outer edge of the wall and climbed up at the same time.
They drew their swords and stabbed at Lin Li, who never looked back from beginning to end.
Shangguan Jin's pupils suddenly shrank, and he was about to remind him, but Lin Li reacted even faster.
The teacup slipped out of his hand and smashed on the first person's forehead.
Lin Li kicked up and sent the killer back into the air, then waved his sleeves and stabbed all the daggers in the air back at the opponent.
The guy who was stabbed into a rag doll while still in the air fell into the sea of people and was shattered beyond repair.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the others immediately ran away.
"Do you really think you can come and go as you please?"
Unexpectedly, the seemingly weak scholar had already put his hand on his shoulder.
The masked assassin's eyes widened instantly, and the next second, a solid wooden wall appeared in his sight.
The whole movement takes only a few breaths.
By the time Shangguan Jin calmed down, Lin Li had already filled himself a cup of fresh tea.
Boom boom boom!
Hurried footsteps could be heard outside.
Lin Li knew that he didn't have much time, so after drinking his tea, he said to Shangguan Jin:
"I think I need to remind Your Highness that since you are a royal relative, you have been trapped from the beginning. Running away will not solve the problem."
Then, he came to the big hole created by the group of unknown assassins, turned around and nodded to Shangguan Jin, then jumped down.
Lin Li left silently.
Even though Shangguan Jin hurried to catch up, he still couldn't see the young man's secret as he disappeared into the crowd.
She stood in the howling wind.
The white fluff of the shawl flutters.
His eyebrows are deep.
"Your Highness, I failed in my duty! I frightened Your Highness!"
The guards who broke in through the door looked at the unconscious assassins on the ground, and they immediately knelt down before Her Royal Highness the Princess, trembling in fear.
Shangguan Jin looked back when he heard the voice, and a flash of red light flashed across his eyes.
Just for a moment.
