Chapter 83: Killing the Snake

The matter had been settled with ease. Lin Xiner didn't want to worry about Ximen Jingyu's issue, and instead thought of Yi Yao's matter.

It is difficult to act under the nose of Ximen Jingxuan and enter Mo Yaxuan's secret darkroom.

Hearing Yi Yao's response, Lin Xiner felt relieved knowing that Yi Yao had woken up.

After filling her stomach, Lin Xiner lay back on the bed and began to truly rest.

After a while, the door creaked open, and Yan'er walked in gently. Seeing that the cold food on the table had been eaten by Lin Xin'er, she frowned and said reproachfully, "Oh, Miss, how do you eat it?"

Want some cold food? I won’t ask the slaves to come when I wake up.”

Lin Xiner closed her eyes and fell asleep, ignoring Yan'er.

Yan'er shook her head helplessly, covered Lin Xiner with a quilt, and carried the remaining food out of the house.

It was already dark at this time. Lin Xiner took a nap and heard a noise outside. She got up and walked out of the house quietly. She jumped on the roof and leaned over the rubble to pay attention to the nearby movements. She saw a few figures walking toward Ximen Jing.

He rushed towards Xuan's study.

The whereabouts of these people are not hidden. They should be from Ximen Jingxuan. It seems that Ximen Jingxuan has something to do tonight.

Lin Xiner concealed her curiosity and quietly returned to the house.

Suddenly, something slippery passed by under her feet. Following the direction of the thing, Lin Xiner clearly saw a snake-like black shadow burrowing into her quilt.

Lin Xiner then screamed and ran out of the house.

She wasn't sure whether the snake that Liu Suixiang had deliberately sent before came back to commit the crime, or whether someone did it deliberately, so she could only pretend to be panicked.

"Xiao Bai, is Xiao Bai here?" Someone was holding a lantern and looking at the entrance of the Plum Blossom Courtyard.

"It's Mrs. Mei." Hearing Lin Xiner's cry, Yan'er ran out from another side room and recognized the person.

"Princess, did that snake scare you again?" Mrs. Mei walked into the Plum Blossom Garden holding a lantern.

Under the red light of the lantern, Lin Xin'er saw for the first time Mrs. Mei, who knew how to train snakes. She had a graceful figure, a face with oval seeds, almond eyes and a cherry mouth. She had a standard Xiaojiabiyu appearance and walked lightly. Everything was perfect.

The proportions of her body were all perfectly controlled by her.

Lin Xiner stroked her chest, pointed to her room, and said to Mrs. Mei, "That snake——"

Mrs. Mei nodded, blessed Lin Xiner, and walked into the house.

Lin Xiner silently watched Mrs. Mei's back. She made a few gestures and made a strange sound, and the snake jumped out from the quilt and wrapped itself around Mrs. Mei's arm holding the lantern.

Mrs. Mei turned around and walked out of the house, came to Lin Xiner, and said, "Princess, my concubine, I took this snake away. I promise not to disturb my concubine again."

"Huh? This snake training technique is quite interesting. Can Mrs. Mei teach it to me?" Lin Xiner looked at the little white snake on Mrs. Mei's arm with curiosity.

"Why are you learning this? Do you want to get bitten more, or do you want to disturb the peace of the palace?"

As soon as Ximen Jingxuan's voice fell, he had already jumped up to the two of them. With a wave of his hand, the little white snake broke off at seven inches, broke into two pieces and fell in front of Mrs. Mei's feet.

"Ah!" As soon as Mrs. Mei exclaimed, she forced herself back and stared blankly at the snake on the ground.

Lin Xiner looked at the reddish light from the lantern, and a touch of sadness flashed across Mrs. Mei's face.

"Go back to your place." Ximen Jingxuan said calmly to Mrs. Mei.

Mrs. Mei knelt down silently, picked up the two sections of snake body, picked up her clothes and wrapped them up, then left the Plum Blossom Garden with the lantern.

Lin Xiner knew that her scream just now attracted Ximen Jingxuan, so she stood silently, waiting for his move.

Ximen Jingxuan walked up to Lin Xiner, his eyes shining like stars in the night.

The two of them looked at each other silently. Yan'er on the side mistakenly thought that she was disturbing the prince and the young lady's good deeds, and hurriedly ran towards her house.

Lin Xiner also felt that the atmosphere at this time was a bit strange, and looked up at Ximen Jingxuan without changing her expression.

"What do you think my king smells like now?" After a moment, Ximen Jingxuan broke the silence.

Lin Xiner was slightly startled, her eyes flashed as she looked at Ximen Jingxuan, and she shook her head in confusion.

"Don't know?" Ximen Jingxuan asked in a calm tone.

Lin Xiner shook her head again.

At this time, she had guessed that it must be related to the fact that she was the first to point out that Chen Rufeng's body smelled of jasmine in Jinyang Palace. In front of Chen Rufeng, she dared to secretly use her skills to condense the scent of his body, but in front of Ximen Jingxuan, she did not

Dare to exercise your own power rashly, that is a prelude to trouble for yourself.

It seems that Ximen Jingxuan is really a careful person, and every detail can arouse his suspicion. Fortunately, his ability to condense scent is a level in Shuiyue Cultivation Technique, which is unique to Shuiyue Palace. He doesn't say it.

Ximen Jingxuan would never know.

Sure enough, Ximen Jingxuan said next, "Didn't you have a very good nose in the palace?"

He had investigated everything that happened in the palace. He closed his eyes and did not think about it. He knew that Chen Rufeng would never be stupid enough to send a killer to the prison to assassinate Lin Xiner. It was just that the evidence was not good for him. He was eight

The emperor, who was frightened by the war years ago, could no longer tolerate any sloppiness, so he issued a straightforward decree to terminate Chen Rufeng's court.

Although the superficial result is what he wants, he also needs to figure out the conspiracy behind the matter.

"In the palace?" Lin Xin'er suddenly said, "In the palace, the fragrance of flowers on Chen Shangshu's body is indeed very strong, and I can smell it clearly. Moreover, I have even thought about changing into Eunuch Tao's clothes, and I have

I can smell the fragrance of jasmine flowers next to my body, so I definitely pointed out Chen Shangshu’s suspicious behavior.”

Anyway, it has been a long time since it happened, so let her talk about it.

Ximen Jingxuan naturally expected this and did not continue to ask, but the suspicion still existed. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Xiner, "It is best not to let me find out that this matter is related to Taishi Lin. Chen Rufeng is acting suspiciously.

If he is dismissed from the court, Grand Master Lin will also have the same possibility."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Daddy is sitting up straight and is not afraid of Your Majesty going to check." Lin Xiner smiled sweetly. This matter really has nothing to do with the Taishi Mansion. Ximen Jingxuan really thought wrong.

But then Lin Xiner's voice changed and she added, "Actually, although the evidence directly points to Chen Shangshu in this matter, I do have doubts."

"Oh?" Ximen Jingxuan's eyes did not move, and he kept looking closely at Lin Xiner.

"Actually, when I told the prince about this matter in private, I became even more convinced that the prince did it." Lin Xiner continued calmly.
