The smug look on the face of the eighth prince Li Ping disappeared when he caught a glimpse of the familiar figure in the room.
He stood there in a daze, staring blankly at the cold figure in white in front of him, a look of panic appearing on his face.
"Emperor, Imperial Sister?!"
His voice was slightly halting, trembling with nervousness and sudden shock.
Imperial sister?
How could it be the imperial sister? !
Imperial sister, why is she here?!
How could he be hanging out with Prince Lin?
At this moment, the Eighth Prince's mind went blank and he stood there in a daze.
The group of playboys who were gathered at the door and were originally prepared to watch the fun were also stunned when they heard the Eighth Prince suddenly calling the Imperial Sister!
Imperial sister?
The eighth prince’s sister?
As everyone knows, the Eighth Prince does have several sisters.
The Eighth Prince's sister is here today?!
Everyone at the door looked at Li Piaomiao and Zhao Xi in the room.
The two of them were stunningly beautiful, and their temperaments were even more remarkable. Especially the figure in white, who was as cold and elegant as a fairy, otherworldly.
Such a temperament...
In an instant, some of the playboys at the door seemed to react and their expressions suddenly became extremely terrified.
"Princess?!"
Someone spoke in a trembling voice.
The Eighth Prince does have several sisters, but there's probably only one who could have frightened him so much...
And the figure in white before him seemed to completely match the image of the legendary eldest princess?!
In a moment...
Uproar!
There was an uproar at the door in an instant. All the dandies present gasped and their expressions became increasingly shocked!
The eldest princess?
The eldest princess is actually with the prince of Lin?!
At this moment, in the room.
The eighth prince's face was pale and he looked nervous, no longer as arrogant and domineering as before.
He looked at the figure sitting at the table not far away in the room, staring at him expressionlessly, without any emotion. Such a cold gaze made the Eighth Prince's body numb and his heart was filled with fear.
He has been afraid of this imperial sister since he was a child!
Not only was this imperial sister highly skilled in martial arts but also had a cold and unfeeling personality, but also because when he was young, he was ignorant and had once relied on his status as a prince to provoke the imperial sister, and was nearly beaten to death by her...
The eighth prince still remembers it vividly!
If the palace guards had not stopped him in time, he would have been beaten to death by the imperial sister!
Although the imperial sister was punished by their father and put in solitary confinement afterwards, the eighth prince also developed a lifelong fear of this imperial sister from that time on.
The imperial sister took action, she really didn't care about any relatives!
On weekdays, he avoided this imperial sister, who lived deep in the palace and rarely went out. Over the years, they had been peaceful and had almost no interactions.
Until today...
Seeing the imperial sister again brought back some long-lost shadows in the Eighth Prince's life.
At this moment, the feeling of fear resurfaced.
"Emperor, sister..."
The Eighth Prince's legs went weak, his face pale, and he forced a friendly smile: "You, why are you here?"
At the table, Li Piaomiao, dressed in white, looked at him coldly, expressionless: "What are you doing here?!"
“I, I…”
At this moment, the Eighth Prince was sweating profusely and his tone was extremely flustered.
What is he here for?
Of course, he came to cause trouble for Lin Jiangnian!
But who could have thought that the imperial sister was actually with Lin Jiangnian?
What is going on?
Didn’t they say that the imperial sister would not marry Lin Jiangnian?
What, meeting in private?
The Eighth Prince, who had not anticipated this situation at all, let out an extremely unnatural smile on his stiff face: "I, I just came over to take a look..."
"No, if there's nothing else, I won't bother you, Imperial Sister!"
Having said that, the Eighth Prince wanted to escape.
This imperial sister was the one he least wanted to offend.
At the moment, he didn't care about causing trouble for Lin Jiangnian and just wanted to leave here quickly.
But just as he turned around, he saw Lin Jiangnian standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.
"Your Highness the Eighth Prince is here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Seeing Lin Jiangnian blocking his way, the Eighth Prince immediately became furious: "What are you doing?!"
“Get out of the way!”
Lin Jiangnian looked at the timid Eighth Prince in front of him and said slowly, "Eighth Prince, you broke in without any reason today and ruined my tryst with the eldest princess. Do you think you can just walk away?"
"A secret meeting?!"
Hearing this, the Eighth Prince widened his eyes in disbelief.
He, he is having a tryst with the imperial sister?!
Not only the Eighth Prince, many people present also gasped.
Didn’t you say that the eldest princess doesn’t like Prince Lin?
Why does it feel like... the situation is a little different?
Zhao Xi, who was standing not far away, was also slightly stunned when he heard this. His eyes suddenly became a little strange, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Li Piaomiao next to him.
But she still looked calm and didn't react at all.
Zhao Xi seemed to remember something and leaned a little closer, raising her eyebrows slightly as she spoke softly, "Piaomiao, are you having a tryst with him?"
Li Piaomiao did not answer her boring question.
Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at her, then looked at Lin Jiangnian not far away, wondering what he was thinking.
"impossible!"
The Eighth Prince was stunned and immediately didn't believe it: "How could my sister have a secret meeting with you?!"
"Yeah?"
Lin Jiangnian said calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
ask?
How could he have the courage to do that?
Although I didn't believe it in my heart, the imperial sister and Lin Jiangnian were indeed here, and it seemed like they were having a tryst...
For a moment, the Eighth Prince was inexplicably panicked.
"Well, then what do you want?!"
"How about it?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at him and said, "I would like to ask His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, what do you want to do by barging in here today?!"
Faced with Lin Jiangnian's questioning, a trace of fear surged in the Eighth Prince's heart.
“I, I…”
The Eighth Prince stammered, unable to articulate his thoughts. His face flushed red, and he angrily exclaimed, "What does my presence here have to do with you? It's none of your business!"
The Eighth Prince snorted coldly and was about to leave.
He was afraid of the imperial sister, but not Lin Jiangnian! The imperial sister didn't say anything, so what could Lin Jiangnian do to him?
Then, the Eighth Prince had just taken two steps when he felt someone grabbing his collar. Then his feet were empty, and he was pulled back along with his clothes.
The eighth prince staggered and almost fell down.
“You, what are you doing?!”
The eighth prince was grabbed by the collar and turned around in shock and anger, only to meet Lin Jiangnian's sneering gaze.
"Did this prince let you go?!"
The Eighth Prince's heart trembled, and his expression was panicked: "You, what do you want to do?!"
"Let me go?! You're just a mere prince of a feudal lord, how dare you touch me?!"
Facing the Eighth Prince's childish threat, Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your Highness, Eighth Prince, have you forgotten something?"
"Although I am just a small prince of a vassal state, I have another identity!"
As he spoke, Lin Jiangnian suddenly sneered and stared at the Eighth Prince: "I am still your future brother-in-law!"
The Eighth Prince's pupils dilated and he stood there in a daze.
Sister, brother-in-law? !
Also, it really seems to be happening?!
"Not only did you not greet your brother-in-law when you saw him, but you were also so disrespectful... As your future brother-in-law, I have the right to teach you a lesson on behalf of your sister!"
"You, you dare?!"
The eighth prince's eyes widened in shock and anger, and he looked terrified.
He, he dared to teach me a lesson?!
"Who do you think you are?! You are not my brother-in-law, don't even think about it..."
The Eighth Prince spoke angrily, but Lin Jiangnian ignored his impotent rage and turned to look at Li Piaomiao beside him.
"Piaomiao, this kid isn't very obedient. He came here to cause trouble today. Do you need me to teach him a lesson?"
"Royal sister, don't listen to his nonsense...Royal sister, please save me quickly. Don't you dislike him? He's taking advantage of you. Kill him quickly..."
Li Piaomiao glanced at the Eighth Prince, then at Lin Jiangnian. After a moment, he said expressionlessly, "Don't beat him to death."
The nonchalant tone of voice left the Eighth Prince completely stunned.
My head is dizzy!
Wait, don't kill him?
What does this mean?
Imperial sister... Imperial sister, what does she mean by this?!
The eighth prince's heart instantly sank!
Before the Eighth Prince could react, Lin Jiangnian had already turned his head to look at the door: "You guys still want to get beaten?!"
The cold voice immediately woke up the playboys at the door, and they all ran away and said goodbye!
Something big happened!
The Prince of Lin actually has a close relationship with the eldest princess, they are like a duo!
In this way, today's incident becomes a royal private matter!
Now the Eighth Prince has hit a wall and he will probably die here!
The rest of the people quickly ran away, fearing that they would be implicated.
Soon, everyone at the door ran away.
The playboy in the room who had been slapped twice by Lin Jiangnian didn't bother to cause trouble for Lin Jiangnian at all. After realizing that the situation was not right and the Eighth Prince was in danger, he hurriedly ran away.
When he ran out of the room, he closed the door to prevent Lin Jiangnian from chasing him out!
The room became completely quiet!
Lin Jiangnian turned his head to look at the Eighth Prince who was standing there in a daze, stunned and stunned, and sneered, "Okay, now no one else can see..."
The Eighth Prince shuddered immediately, his expression horrified, "You, what do you want to do?!"
"You, let me go...you...ouch..."
I have to say that the eighth prince does have some martial arts skills.
As a prince, the Eighth Prince received royal education since childhood and did learn some martial arts skills.
However, his limited martial arts skills were clearly not enough to stand up to Lin Jiangnian. Before he could even begin to display his skills, he was knocked to the ground by Lin Jiangnian, screaming and wailing.
"You, you dare to hit me... Ouch, you're dead... Ouch, stop... you... stop, stop hitting me..."
"I was wrong, brother-in-law, I was wrong... Stop hitting me, wuwuwu..."
“…”
The eighth prince's ability to withstand a beating is not much better than Jiang Shaoan's.
Lin Jiangnian had just warmed up when he burst into tears and apologized for his mistakes... As a prince who lived a life of luxury, he had never suffered any grievances from childhood to adulthood except for the time when he was almost beaten to death by the imperial sister.
Where have you ever been treated like this?
Especially the words of the imperial sister, "Don't beat him to death," were enough to scare him!
Don't beat him to death?
What you mean is... as long as you don't die, everything else is fine?
Broken arms and legs?
Disfigured and paralyzed?
The eighth prince was frightened at the thought of this possibility. How could he dare to be stubborn?
After all, the Eighth Prince is only sixteen or seventeen years old, a child who has been spoiled since childhood. Even if his character is indeed not a good thing, his mental quality is not good after all!
Seeing the Eighth Prince crying like a teenager, Lin Jiangnian clapped his hands contentedly and looked down at the Eighth Prince lying on the ground: "Now, I ask you a question, you answer... If you dare to lie or be stubborn, I will continue to beat you, understand?"
"Understand, understand..." The eighth prince's voice was weak and aggrieved.
"Let me ask you, what are you doing here today?"
Hearing this question, the Eighth Prince hesitated for a moment, "I, I will help Jiang Shaoan get back his face..."
"Oh!"
Lin Jiangnian knew he would use this excuse. He slapped him on the head and sneered, "You still dare to lie?"
"to be honest!"
"Stop, stop hitting me, I, I said..."
The Eighth Prince screamed, and then he told the truth: "I, I came to find you!"
"What do you want me for?"
"Looking for, looking for trouble with you..."
Lin Jiangnian sneered: "Do I have a grudge against you?"
“No, no…”
"Then why are you bothering me?"
"You, you have a grudge against the Third Brother..."
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes and asked, "Did the Third Prince ask you to come?"
“No, no…”
The Eighth Prince shook his head: "Yes, I came here on my own..."
“Bang!”
Lin Jiangnian slapped him on the head again: "You dare to lie?!"
"No, no... I, I didn't lie..."
The eighth prince shed tears of grievance.
He really didn't lie this time!
Seeing him crying like this out of grievance, Lin Jiangnian guessed the boy's true purpose.
Come and cause trouble for him?
To get back face for the third prince?
I have to say that this eighth prince is indeed a little mentally retarded.
"But, can you let me go?"
The eighth prince was crying miserably with tears and snot.
Lin Jiangnian thought for a moment, then a meaningful smile appeared on his face: "It's not impossible for me to let you go, but you have to do me a favor!"
"W-what is it?"
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes: "Jiang Shaoan, is he following you?"
The Eighth Prince was slightly startled, then nodded subconsciously: "Yes, yes?"
"That's easy..."
“…”
After hearing what Lin Jiangnian wanted him to do, the Eighth Prince's eyes widened in disbelief: "Really, really want to do this?"
"Any questions?"
Seeing Lin Jiangnian's narrowed eyes and unfriendly gaze, the Eighth Prince shuddered and shook his head quickly: "No, no!"
"That's all, just do as I say, understand?"
Lin Jiangnian let him go: "You can leave now!"
The Eighth Prince finally struggled to his feet, retreating in terror. He glanced at Lin Jiangnian with a horrified look before gritting his teeth. He then turned and left the room without a backward glance. He ran as fast as if escaping a dangerous place.
After the Eighth Prince escaped, Lin Jiangnian slowly stood up and turned around, seeing that Zhao Xi and Li Piaomiao were looking at him.
Especially Zhao Xi's look, it was very strange.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised.
"You are such a bad person!"
Zhao Xi obviously heard what Lin Jiangnian said to the Eighth Prince just now, and couldn't help but sigh.
This guy is full of bad intentions!
Li Piaomiao on the side didn't say anything, but from the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Jiangnian, it was obvious that he had the same idea.
"What do you know?"
Lin Jiangnian shook his head: "I'm helping a young man who has gone astray to get back on the right path!"
"Do we have to do this to get back on the right track?" Zhao Xi curled his lips.
"Of course not!"
Lin Jiangnian said calmly, "However, I don't like that brat, so I'm planning on making him suffer a little more!"
Zhao Xi: “…”
