Lin Xilan's heart was filled with alarm.

——In particular, she clearly saw that because of the assassination just now, many people had already noticed them and were even watching them carefully.

Everyone saw this classic scene.

They couldn't help but focus their eyes on Lin Xilan.

In particular, when they saw Murong Xuan's beautiful appearance in gorgeous clothes, they became even more excited.

"Whose family is this young man? He is so handsome, and he is also a hero who saves the beauty. They will make a perfect couple, right?" A man in simple clothes leaned close to the ear of the person and whispered to him in a low voice, with excitement shining in his eyes.

Yes.

Seeing the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of him, he seemed to have witnessed the birth of a beautiful story.

"Hush, are you crazy? You say anything. Don't you even look at who the other person is? She's our Regent Princess. How could you pair them up?" The man's companion's eyes immediately widened like bells. He quickly interrupted the other person, with a look of disbelief on his face.

On a straight face.

They all looked nervous.

He looked around to make sure that no one else had heard these outrageous words, then he patted his chest and felt relieved.

"Oh, he just said it casually. Why are you so nervous? There are no outsiders here." Someone else stood up and curled his lips indifferently, but his voice still unconsciously lowered a few degrees.

His Royal Highness the Regent.

He was a well-known figure in the Northern Dynasty, a man whom even His Majesty did not dare to disrespect, but they, the common people, did not dare to discuss him openly.

but.

It's just a quiet cricket, it's nothing...

After all, the Regent is such a powerful figure, he would never cause trouble over such a small matter!

"Have you forgotten what happened to the teahouse owner who talked nonsense last time? The Regent's affairs are not something that servants like us can discuss casually."

"That's true, that's true..."

Lin Xilan, "..."

Lin Xilan had very good ears, so all the whispers fell into her ears.

and.

With the other party's reminder, she suddenly remembered something.

That was a long, long time ago. She went to a brothel to meet Zhao Hanshuang, and the incident was witnessed by the owner of an unknown teahouse.

then.

There was a rumor about the Regent Princess and the top prostitute in the brothel...

However, this rumor happened to reach the ears of the busy Regent Beichen Yuan... Ahem, as for the boss's ending...

If nothing unexpected happens, the unknown teahouse owner should still be mining in the distant desert...

That was all Beichen Yuan’s fault!

Thinking of this, Lin Xilan's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

A hint of complex emotions flashed across her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

As soon as she said this, Lin Xilan did not hesitate and retreated three meters. After three meters, she said gently and respectfully: "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my life. Goodbye! I will come to thank you another day!"

She didn't want to be killed by the rumors in the capital!

and so.

Lin Xilan must keep her distance from strange men.

Especially this man in front of her, who is both familiar and strange, she has to keep her distance!!!

Murong Xuan: “…”

???

Lin Xilan’s reaction made him very dissatisfied.

Does this woman think he is a plague god?

This look...

This retreating action...

This is this...

He wanted to say, "Do you have to be so clear? I was seriously injured just now because of you, don't you have any expression at all?"

Lin Xilan, you really, really, really have no conscience!

but.

Before Murong Xuan could even open his mouth, the woman had already run away. Her feet seemed to be greased and she ran very fast.

Lin Xilan's figure had already become farther and farther away, until it could no longer be seen.

Murong Xuan was so angry that she laughed, "I really don't know what kind of magic potion Beichen Yuan gave her. That man is so cold and can't say more than three sentences. This woman must be crazy to fall in love with such a man!"

"It's impossible. Lin Xilan can't even take me, the most handsome man in the South Country, seriously. She must be running so fast because she's afraid of Beichen Yuan and is forced to do so by her power."

"That must be it."

Murong Xuan had no doubt about his charm. He looked at Lin Xilan's back in silence and frantically tried to make excuses for himself.

The guard sighed.

He didn't care that his master was injured, and put all his energy on the Regent Princess. He was helpless about this!

"Your Highness, look, even though you have been a hero and saved the beauty, she still has no reaction at all. She is eager to cut off all ties with you. In my opinion, she must be afraid of Beichen Yuan. Such a timid girl is not worthy of you, Your Highness. Don't pursue her!"

"Noisy!"

He waved his folding fan over the servant's head, "Don't talk if you don't have brains!"

Is he pursuing Lin Xilan because he likes her?

That's not true!

——What he really wanted was to plant a nail next to Beichen Yuan, so that he would have a chess piece by his side that he could use. What he wanted to calculate was people's hearts, and what he wanted to fight for was his reputation!

As for Lin Xilan...

He lowered his eyes to glance at his wound, a hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes: he even let himself get injured on purpose for the sake of a self-torture tactic, but who knew that this woman would be more ferocious than him, it was really infuriating... Putting aside other things, is he really not as good as Beichen Yuan's dead face?

Lin Xilan returned to the palace without stopping.

"Quick, close the door!"

She took a deep breath, asked the maid beside her to quickly close the door, and made sure that no one was following her. Then she slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay."

Fortunately, she was just bandaging the wound at that time.

Forgive her for being frank: Ever since Xiao Wuchen started telling her that Murong Xuan was planning to propose to her, she felt that something was wrong with Murong Xuan.

She really felt that Murong Xuan had bad intentions.

——It’s bad enough that he secretly wants to seduce his mortal enemy’s wife, but now he’s trying to do it openly. Does he really not care at all whether he can return alive?

Think of this.

She clicked her tongue twice.

"Princess, why do you look like you have survived a disaster? Did something happen?"

Lin Xilan shook her head. "It's nothing. I was just accidentally assassinated when I went out. There's nothing else. I managed to save my life."

"Who dares to be so rude!"

Need I say this?

She slowly curled her lips. The people she had offended were only a few: Yun Susu, Jiang Mingzhu, Yu Xueyao...it could be any one of them.

But he was brave enough to kill in the street...

She bet five hundred taels!

Absolutely ***!!!

Just as Lin Xilan guessed, the one who had the courage to do this was none other than a ***. At this moment, she was sitting in the hall, listening to the news from her subordinates, her face gloomy.

"Useless! With so many people, they can't even kill Lin Xilan!"

What's the point of her keeping them?
