Lin Jiangnian had figured out that the reason why Prince Lin had such a bad reputation among the people was probably partly due to that kite!
For example, right now, Lin Jiangnian is sitting at home and something bad is happening.
Song Jue was killed by Zhiyuan, and had nothing to do with Lin Jiangnian.
But will the Song family believe it?
You are the prince of Lin Wang, and your maid killed someone... then it was you who killed her, right?
You dog prince, accept your death!
…
Lin Jiangnian sighed inwardly and glanced at Xu Lan, who looked gloating across from him. "So you came here today just to show off in front of this prince?"
"What else?"
Xu Lan raised her eyebrows and said proudly, "Seeing you unhappy will brighten my mood for the whole day!"
"Do we have a grudge against each other?"
"I don't have any grudges...but I just don't like you."
Lin Jiangnian sneered: "If anyone else dared to speak to this prince like that, they would have been dragged out and fed to the dogs!"
"Then if you have the guts, why don't you drag me to feed the dogs?"
Xu Lan was not afraid at all. She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of provocation in her eyes.
"Forget it, the dog won't eat it."
The smile on Xu Lan's face froze again.
"Can you say that again?"
Xu Lan slammed the table, furious.
Lin Jiangnian saw that her face was slightly red with anger, her eyes were wide open, her breathing was rapid, and her chest was moving up and down... without even a curve.
Just as she was getting angry, Xu Lan suddenly noticed Lin Jiangnian's gaze and subconsciously covered her chest, saying angrily, "What are you looking at?"
"No, I just thought of a question." Lin Jiangnian looked thoughtful.
"What's the problem?!"
Lin Jiangnian glanced out the window at the yard and asked, "If this tree doesn't have a heart, does it still need to be wrapped in bark?"
Xu Lan followed his gaze outside and subconsciously said, "Of course not. Wouldn't a tree die without a heart?"
"If there's no pot for the teapot, do you need a lid?"
"Why keep the tea lid if there's no teapot?"
"If a person has no feet, does he need to wear shoes?"
"Why wear shoes if you don't have feet... Wait, what are you trying to say?"
Xu Lan looked at him suspiciously. What was this guy saying for no apparent reason?
"Yeah, you're right. Why would I wear it if I don't have any?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at Xu Lan and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'm done."
After saying that, Lin Jiangnian stood up and left the room, leaving Xu Lan sitting there, looking a little dazed.
What does he mean by this?
Why wear something if you don't have it?
Xu Lan frowned slightly, pondering and thinking carefully...
Then……
She suddenly recalled the look in Lin Jiangnian's eyes before he left, and subconsciously looked down.
After a moment of silence, as if realizing something, the expression on Xu Lan's face gradually froze.
After a while.
"This Miss Lin is not done with you!!!"
“…”
When Xu Lan chased out of the room with murderous intent, Lin Jiangnian was standing in the yard, looking at the scenery in the distance.
Behind the palace, there are mountains and flowing water. With the sunlight, the morning mist has long dissipated, and the towering mountains in the distance appear even more spectacular.
The scenery is picturesque and breathtakingly beautiful.
Xu Lan suddenly stopped under the eaves behind him. Looking at Lin Jiangnian's back in the yard, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes suddenly became complicated.
Eventually, this complex expression gradually dissipated and disappeared.
As if he had made up his mind, Xu Lan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, a faint sneer emerging. Then he stepped into the yard and came behind Lin Jiangnian.
Lin Jiangnian turned around, expecting Xu Lan to come angrily to settle the score with him. But to his surprise, she was very calm.
Xu Lan looked at Lin Jiangnian, sized him up and down, and suddenly sneered, "Let's talk, shall we?"
"talk?"
Lin Jiangnian asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"
Xu Lan glanced around the courtyard, then suddenly walked up to Lin Jiangnian and moved closer.
Lin Jiangnian subconsciously took a step back, his eyes full of vigilance: "What do you want to do?!"
Seeing Lin Jiangnian take a half step back, Xu Lan immediately revealed a trace of shame and anger. She reached out and grabbed Lin Jiangnian's collar, pulling hard: "Come here!"
Caught off guard, Lin Jiangnian felt a surge of powerful force. Xu Lan looked frail, but she was incredibly strong.
Is this the strength of a ninth-grade master?
Lin Jiangnian stumbled and bumped into Xu Lan headfirst.
It hurts!
I could smell the faint feminine fragrance coming from Xu Lan, and at the same time I could see a hint of red on her crystal clear earlobe.
As soon as Lin Jiangnian lowered his head, he caught a glimpse of Xu Lan's slightly flushed cheeks. With a hint of gnashing teeth, he leaned close to Lin Jiangnian's ear and suddenly said, "You're not the real Prince Lin, are you?"
"boom!"
Lin Jiangnian's ears suddenly roared like an explosion. Like a frightened venomous snake, its sharp edge was exposed!
Discovered?!
A look of astonishment flashed across Lin Jiangnian's eyes. At this moment, his whole body was stiff and his back felt cold. He suppressed the fear in his heart and looked at Xu Lan.
Just as he was about to deny it, he saw her sneer again and again: "You don't need to argue with me... You can fool everyone, but you can't fool me!"
"You are not the Prince of Lin at all!"
"You're a fake!"
Lin Jiangnian was horrified, but his expression remained unchanged: "You said this prince is fake?"
"What else?"
Xu Lan stared at Lin Jiangnian without hesitation. Eye to eye, she sneered: "Why, you don't believe it?"
"How about I go and have a good chat with Zhiyuan?"
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Go ahead... How can this prince be afraid of you?"
"Saying that this prince is a fake is the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
At this moment, Lin Jiangnian's heart was in turmoil and he was extremely frightened, but he remained calm... He couldn't guarantee whether Xu Lan had discovered his identity.
Or was she blasting him?
Unexpectedly, Xu Lan just smiled faintly. "It seems that you won't give up until you see the Yellow River. In that case, then this girl will grant your wish!"
"I think Zhiyuan must be very interested in you, the fake Prince of Lin!"
After saying that, Xu Lan took a step back, smiled meaningfully at Lin Jiangnian, turned around and walked out of the yard.
One step, two steps, three steps...
Just as Xu Lan's figure was about to disappear at the end of the courtyard corridor.
"etc."
Lin Jiangnian's low and cold voice came from behind.
Xu Lan stopped, raised the corners of his mouth, and a smug smile appeared in his narrowed eyes.
“…”
In a quiet room.
The doors and windows are locked.
At the table, the two sat facing each other again.
However, this time, Xu Lan's expression became even more complacent, as if he had a victorious attitude as he glanced at Lin Jiangnian opposite him.
"Yeah... Really, you look exactly like that guy. You're practically identical to him. You can't tell the difference at all... Tsk tsk, how could there be someone so similar in this world?"
Xu Lan clicked his tongue and spoke.
Lin Jiangnian didn't say anything, but stared at her in front of him with a serious look.
Identity exposed!
When Xu Lan said that he was not the Prince of Lin, Lin Jiangnian realized that something was wrong.
It was discovered after all!
If he pretends to be the Prince of Lin, he will surely die if his identity is exposed.
However, just when Lin Jiangnian thought his life was over, he suddenly realized that Xu Lan did not choose to expose him in public... but said that he wanted to talk to him?
Obviously, she has other purposes!
And Lin Jiangnian, perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope? !
"How did you find out?"
Lin Jiangnian asked in a deep voice.
He thought he had concealed it very well and it would be almost impossible to find any flaws, unless... yesterday?
"Of course it's because of my discerning eyes that I can tell there's something wrong with you at first glance."
Xu Lan said in a smug and meaningful tone, "However, I have to say that you acted really well. You are almost exactly like that guy. Apart from me, I'm afraid no one can tell that you are fake!"
Lin Jiangnian's eyes narrowed: "You mean... except for you, no one else can see it?"
"certainly!"
"Can't you see the kite?"
Xu Lan glanced at him and said, "If she finds out, will you still be alive?"
Lin Jiangnian immediately narrowed his eyes.
"Take it back... Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!"
Xu Lan sneered: "Do you want to kill me to silence me?"
"No." Lin Jiangnian denied it flatly.
"Still trying to quibble? I saw the fierce gleam in your eyes just now."
"I have sand in my eyes and it's uncomfortable."
“…”
"I advise you to be honest and don't have any evil thoughts!"
Xu Lan looked at him and sneered: "If anything happens to me, you, the fake prince, will die miserably!"
Lin Jiangnian put away the murderous intent that had just crossed her mind. Xu Lan dared to confront her today, so she must have been prepared.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Lin Jiangnian spoke in a deep voice.
"I should be the one asking this question!"
Xu Lan propped up his chin and looked Lin Jiangnian up and down with interest: "Who are you? Who asked you to pretend to be the Prince of Lin?"
"What is your purpose?"
"Also, where is the real Prince Lin?"
"Is he dead?"
“…”
