Jinyuan was the most favored among the young ladies in Prince Jin's Mansion. She was a distant cousin of Prince Jin's Mansion, and she was already eight years old when she was sent to Prince Jin's Mansion.
But she had a pair of eyes similar to those of the little princess, so Princess Jin always kept her with her.
In her previous life, Jin Yuan repeatedly prevented her from going to Prince Jin's Mansion to recognize her ancestors and return to the clan, but she didn't expect to meet her first in this life.
Of course Jin Yuan was surprised the moment she saw Chu Yan. This face was so familiar to her.
Not to mention that Chu Yan looks similar to Princess Jin, but the portraits in her room were all drawn by Princess Jin when she was often absentminded.
King Jin was worried that the princess was overthinking, so whenever she finished, he would let Jinyuan take it away.
But Jinyuan didn't dare to throw them away, so she kept them in a dark compartment in the room. From time to time, she would take them out and study them, looking in the mirror and trying to imitate the children in the portraits to see how she could be more like her.
Now when she saw Chu Yan, her heart was pounding, as if the child in the portrait had grown up and stood in front of her in an instant.
No, such a person cannot be kept, let alone be seen by the princess.
Jinyuan made up her mind, but a smile appeared on her face.
"In this case, just follow me and I will take you out."
How could Chu Yan believe her kindness, and said hurriedly, "No, my mother is probably waiting for me at the door. I'll go take a look first."
"Don't leave!"
Jin Yuan said sharply and almost immediately grabbed Chu Yan's wrist.
As soon as she finished speaking, the two maids beside her also chased after her.
Chu Yan frowned slightly, showing displeasure on his face.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. This place is where noble people stay. If anyone discovers it, they will lose their heads."
Jinyuan said softly again.
Chu Yan looked around and saw that these two maids had no restriction on her.
But she didn't want to disturb Princess Jin's purity.
"Let me go and I'll leave."
"I told you, I'll take you out!"
As she said this, she signaled with a glance that the maids' hands would be heavier.
Chu Yan's face sank, he turned his wrist upwards, and with one force he pulled the two maids together. The two collided and screamed in surprise.
Jinyuan's face suddenly turned pale, "Help, someone is coming, they are going to kill someone!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the guards from Prince Jin's Mansion heard the sound and rushed over.
Jin Yuan immediately pointed at Chu Yan, "This crazy woman is going to break in and hurt the princess, why don't you catch me quickly!"
"The person under my command was injured by her when she blocked her! Quick, don't let her run away!"
The guard didn't do what he thought and rushed out directly.
Chu Yan didn't want to make the matter a big deal and ran inside quickly.
Thanks to the training in Qinggan Village, her current speed is no worse than those of the men, not to mention her petite body, which makes it easier to dodge.
After a while, she had already shaken off those people.
"call……"
After secretly exhaling, Chu Yan was glad to be away from those people, and felt a sudden chill on his neck.
She froze instantly. At this moment, she saw a secret guard in black holding a sharp sword against her neck.
Chu Yan knew that he was in a place he shouldn't be.
After a while, Jinyuan, who was out of breath, also chased after her, "Huh! Where do you think you are going? I have already told you that you are not allowed to enter this place!"
"Ignorant fool!"
There was vicious hatred in her eyes.
No matter what, Chu Yan cannot appear in front of Princess Jin.
No matter what identity Chu Yan is, with this face, he is afraid that he will take away his favor in Prince Jin's Mansion.
After being by Princess Jin's side for so many years, she knew that the little love she felt was due to the eyes that were similar to hers. When the other party always looked at her in a daze, she tried her best to respond, even though she always felt extremely disgusted.
"Yuanyuan, are you outside?"
There was a voice not far away. Jin Yuan came back to her senses, looked at Chu Yan warningly, and then replied, "It's me."
"But what's the matter?"
"No, I just met a girl who is looking for someone. I will send her out right now."
When she said this, people had already arrived at Chu Yan's side.
"If you don't want to die, don't make any sound."
She scolded in a low voice, which was full of threats.
Chu Yan blinked his eyes, indicating that he understood.
Jin Yuan went to see the secret guard again, but he put away his long sword, while she took a dagger and pressed it against Chu Yan's waist and abdomen.
"I didn't expect the girl to be carrying a dagger. It's really rare."
"What do you know? My brother gave this to me. I naturally carry it with me, but I don't understand it even if I tell you."
There was quite a bit of pride in Jinyuan's words.
She is the only one among the few ladies in Prince Jin's palace who has an intersection with her eldest son. If it weren't for the fact that he had no intention of marrying, she would not have changed her last name to Jin.
Chu Yan was coerced by her to get farther and farther away from the Zen room. Seeing that she was around the corner, it would be easy for her to escape from Jin Yuan as long as she got out of the sight of the secret guard.
Of course, if you don't meet Chang Zhe.
On the long and narrow corridor, she and Chang Zhe faced each other.
Both of them were stunned.
Chu Yan didn't know what Chang Zhe was thinking, but she was sure that after what happened last night, Chang Zhe would definitely not help her.
It would be nice not to add insult to injury.
"Miss Jin? What is this?"
Sure enough, Chang Zhe stopped and looked in the direction of Chu Yan.
The words "Miss Jin" have already made Jinyuan feel happy.
She had a smile on her face and said, "You must be General Chang. I have heard of the general's name a long time ago. When I saw him today, he looked really majestic. She is the thief I just captured. I don't know what she stole. She was about to take her to the room.
Searching."
Chang Zhe looked deeply at Chu Yan, "Oh?"
There was a lot of joking in his eyes, as if he was waiting for Chu Yan to speak.
"If you ask me, I might..."
"Aren't you leaving yet?"
Before Chang Zhe finished speaking, Chu Yan turned his head and said coldly to Jinyuan.
She doesn't need Chang Zhe to save her, as long as he doesn't get in the way.
It seems that Jin Yuan and the other ladies are well-dressed and well-fed in Prince Jin's Mansion, but in fact Prince Jin's Mansion does not treat them as their proper masters. The secret guards around Princess Jin only protect Princess Jin's safety.
After leaving the other party's range, how could she still be tied down by Jin Yuan, an embroidered pillow?
Chang Zhe waited for a while, and Jin Yuan also began to doubt the relationship between the two people, and her eyes flashed with caution.
"Just because she looks familiar, I know this girl. Miss Jin, be careful, she knows some boxing and kicking skills!"
Chu Yan suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him. This man was so hateful!
There was a coldness in Chang Zhe's eyes, as if to say, look, you are nothing without my help.
The dagger on the back moved forward a little further, and the tip pierced the skin, causing Chu Yan to sweat on his forehead.
