Lin Jiangnian had a dream!
In his dream, there was heavy rain, thunder and lightning. He appeared in a dilapidated temple, where a strange woman in red grabbed his neck and forced him to marry her...
The next second, Lin Jiangnian shuddered and woke up from the bed!
"Where is this?"
Lin Jiangnian felt weak all over and looked around. What he saw was an unfamiliar room.
The antique decoration, the screens carved with delicate patterns, the sandalwood tables and chairs, and even the doors and windows with gold edges give people a sense of preciousness everywhere.
Even the bedding Lin Jiangnian was wearing was made of silk, soft and smooth, and the bed was soft and elastic.
The room was also filled with a faint and soothing scent of sandalwood.
The quiet and peaceful days are in stark contrast to the terrifying scenes of lightning and thunder in the dream.
"here it is……"
As his consciousness gradually returned, memories began to emerge in Lin Jiangnian's mind.
"Late night, dilapidated temple, heavy rain, a woman in red..."
At the same time, some other vague residual memories also came to my mind.
“…”
The two memories met frankly in my mind, clashed, intertwined, and finally merged into one...
Lin Jiangnian sat on the bed, breathing heavily, his eyes dull for a long time!
It’s not a dream!
The woman in red in my dream... is it real?!
And he did travel through time!
The Daning Dynasty, a dynasty of which I have no impression.
It is not clear whether it is a parallel world or a new world after the destruction of the era, but what is certain is that this is a place that Lin Jiangnian is completely unfamiliar with.
And his current identity...
Lin Jiangnian looked down at himself and fell into deep thought.
Prince Lin? !
The real Prince Lin is dead!
And he, Lin Jiangnian, was forced to pretend to be the Prince of Lin under the coercion of the mysterious woman in red.
They look the same, even have the same name...
If it weren't for the remaining memories in his mind telling Lin Jiangnian that he was not the Prince of Lin, he would even suspect that the dead one was fake!
And he is the real Prince Lin?
Lin Jiangnian was in a trance, and the memory in his mind was still stuck on the time when he fainted in the ruined temple. When he opened his eyes again, he appeared here.
Judging from the decoration in the room, if nothing unexpected happens, this should be the so-called Prince Lin's Palace?
But at this moment, Lin Jiangnian did not feel any joy. Instead, he felt uneasy, bewildered, and panicked...
He had come to this strange world for no apparent reason, and was forced to impersonate the Prince of Lin. Even now, Lin Jiangnian still couldn't fully accept it.
Looking down, I realized that his clothes had been changed and his hair had been washed. A handsome but slightly pale face was reflected in the bronze mirror not far away.
Even though he looked a little haggard, his handsome appearance could not be concealed.
He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is handsome and extraordinary, with the temperament of a graceful scholar!
Lin Jiangnian breathed a sigh of relief. He was still himself... at least his appearance had not changed at all.
Just when Lin Jiangnian wanted to check if other parts of his body were original...
“Squeak!”
The door of the room was suddenly pushed open.
Lin Jiangnian was still clumsy in untying his trouser belt and turned back subconsciously.
At the door, a little maid with pigtails appeared, looking at him with her big black eyes.
The two looked into each other's eyes!
The air froze at this moment.
Lin Jiangnian looked at the little girl who suddenly appeared at the door, then looked down at his own actions...
Who is this little girl?
Before Lin Jiangnian had time to think, he saw the little girl looking at him with wide eyes, and the next second, surprise appeared on her face.
"Your Highness, are you awake?!"
Then he turned around and trotted away, shouting as he ran.
"Someone come quickly, His Royal Highness is awake!"
“…”
A crisp sound came from outside the room and gradually faded away.
Lin Jiangnian also suddenly woke up. His current identity is the Prince of Lin? !
But how could he pretend to be the Prince of Lin? !
In the dilapidated temple, the woman in red simply told Lin Jiangnian some information clues about important people.
"Lin Hengzhong..."
Lin Hengzhong, the biological father of Prince Lin, is also one of the only two kings of different surnames in the Daning Dynasty!
Lin Jiangnian muttered to himself, and some scenes about the deeds of King Lin emerged in his mind.
Fifteen years ago, the Nanzhao was destroyed, the Miao and Yue were pacified, and in one fell swoop, all the large and small countries that had been entrenched in the southern border of the Daning Dynasty for nearly a hundred years were wiped out, completing the true unification of the Daning Dynasty.
Because of this, Lin Hengzhong, who had made great contributions, was made a king by the current emperor as an exception. He became the only two kings of different surnames in the Daning Dynasty. He was granted Linzhou and guarded the southern border of the Daning Dynasty.
He stood side by side with the king of a different surname in Xuzhou, north of the Daning Dynasty, and people all over the world called them the King of the South and the King of the North!
As for Lin Jiangnian, he is an out-and-out playboy who enjoys the support of his father.
Perhaps it was because the princess died early, and Prince Lin was busy all year round and had little time to care for his son. In addition, he was spoiled and acted recklessly since childhood. Unsurprisingly, Prince Lin was spoiled into a complete playboy and bully!
Linzhou, as the fief of Prince Lin, naturally became a place where the prince could do whatever he pleased and exploit the people. He bullied men and women, raped women... it could be said that he was guilty of all sorts of evil.
Of course, these are just folk rumors.
It is of no help to Lin Jiangnian at the moment.
He wasn't sure what Prince Lin's personality was like, what kind of person he was in his daily life. And how could he avoid being discovered and exposed?
But before Lin Jiangnian had time to think about this, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the room.
Immediately afterwards, several figures squeezed into the room.
"Your Highness, you are finally awake?!"
Two doctors walked into the room quickly with smiles on their faces, and Lin Jiangnian quickly lay down and pretended to sleep before they came in.
Two doctors came to the bedside and were stunned to see the Crown Prince with his eyes closed.
Didn’t you say that His Highness has woken up?
The two men looked solemn and did not dare to delay. They carefully checked Lin Jiangnian's body and then felt relieved.
"Your Highness was just frightened and caught a cold in the rain, so he's a little weak. He's fine!"
"I'll prescribe some medicine for His Highness. After taking it and resting for a while, he will be fully recovered."
“…”
"Xiao Zhu, follow the two doctors to get the medicine."
A cold voice sounded in the room.
"yes."
A respectful voice sounded, like the little maid at the door just now.
Then, the cold voice came again.
"You all should go out first."
"yes."
The footsteps faded away, and soon the room became quiet.
Lin Jiangnian lay on the bed, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep... Pretending to be asleep was the only way to conceal his identity and stay out of the sight of others.
As long as you don’t come into contact with others, you won’t be exposed!
Just as Lin Jiangnian closed his eyes and thought about what to do next, that cold voice suddenly sounded again.
"Your Highness has been in a coma for three days. Do you want to continue sleeping?"
The sound is very close.
Right next to the bed.
A cool and calm tone.
Three days?
Lin Jiangnian was shocked. He had been in a coma for three days?
etc……
Whose voice is this?
Does she know she's pretending to be asleep?
Lin Jiangnian's whole body was tense, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Then, he slowly opened his eyes.
Now that I've been seen through, if I continue pretending to be asleep, people will probably notice something's wrong.
Lin Jiangnian had to wake up.
Lin Jiangnian saw a woman in a green shirt standing beside the bed.
A dress made of exquisite satin, with light-colored patterns embroidered on the hem and a silk ribbon tied around the waist, showing off the woman's slender waist.
The woman looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, the age when her childishness had faded. She had a delicate oval face, and even without makeup, she was stunning.
The first time he saw the woman in front of him, Lin Jiangnian felt tremendous pressure!
The woman looked cold and indifferent, standing quietly beside the bed, neither cold nor indifferent, with a calm and indifferent look.
who is she?
Lin Jiangnian's mind went blank.
Don’t know!
I don’t even know him!
After a brief hesitation, Lin Jiangnian looked a little weak and avoided the other person's gaze: "I, I was unconscious for three days?"
He tried to make his voice as low and hoarse as possible, pretending to be weak to disguise himself.
"Yes."
The woman in green seemed to remember something, and a sharp look suddenly appeared in her cold eyes.
"Your Highness's attack this time was probably premeditated. I have already sent someone to investigate and I believe there will be results soon."
"Um……"
Lin Jiangnian responded nonchalantly, he was not interested in the murderer.
but……
What did she just call herself?
Slave?
In an instant, Lin Jiangnian seemed to remember something and subconsciously asked, "Kite?"
As expected, the woman in green reacted and looked up at Lin Jiangnian on the bed: "What are your instructions, Your Highness?"
It’s her!
The cold maid mentioned by the woman in red.
"It's okay, I'm just not feeling well. I want to take a rest..."
Lin Jiangnian found an excuse.
After confirming her identity, Lin Jiangnian felt a little more at ease.
Zhiyuan stared at Lin Jiangnian on the bed for a few seconds, then slowly withdrew her gaze and said calmly, "Then your highness, please have a good rest. I will not disturb you!"
"By the way, the prince has learned of this matter and will be returning from abroad soon. The assassination of His Highness this time is a provocation to our palace, and we will never let it go!"
A hint of coldness flashed across Zhiyuan's eyes, and then disappeared.
Turn around and leave.
Lin Jiangnian breathed a sigh of relief.
It can be considered that I have been able to get away with it temporarily.
But just when he breathed a sigh of relief, Zhiyuan, who had just reached the door, suddenly stopped again.
"Your Highness?"
"What, what happened?"
Lin Jiangnian's heart sank, and he continued to speak in a low voice.
"fine."
Zhiyuan withdrew her gaze from Lin Jiangnian, shook her head slightly, and turned away.
In the room, on the bed!
Watching Zhiyuan's cold figure disappear, Lin Jiangnian's heart suddenly sank.
Oh no!
Exposed?
