Jiang Lin was completely dumbfounded.
He never dreamed that his sincere heart would be doubted by the Grand Master!
However, Jiang Lin didn't have much time to be stunned and sad.
He clearly saw that there was a hint of killing intent in the eyes of the Grand Master in front of him!
Jiang Lin was so horrified that his body went limp and he knelt down in front of Shangguan Yi.
"Master Taishi, you have misunderstood your subordinate!"
“My subordinates’ loyalty to you is evident from time to time!”
"Besides, you know the whereabouts of your subordinates best!"
"My subordinate has never met the Fourth Prince alone, so how could he cooperate with the Fourth Prince inside and outside and betray you?"
Looking at Jiang Lin, who was in tears and extremely frightened, the anger and doubt in Shangguan Yi's eyes finally gradually disappeared.
"good."
"I will trust you again. Regarding Xu Rong, we will wait until the second prince returns to Beijing before making any plans!"
Jiang Lin felt relieved and let out a long breath: "Thank you, Master Taishi, for your trust!"
"Please rest assured, my lord, my subordinates will treat you through fire and water without any second thoughts..."
Jiang Lin was expressing his loyalty eloquently, but unexpectedly Shangguan Yi was already extremely impatient and had no patience to listen.
Seeing Shangguan Yi's heartless departure, Jiang Lin sat helplessly on the ground, feeling that his clothes were soaked with sweat.
My brain was spinning, and my hands and feet were numb and cold!
I don’t know how long he had been sitting on the ground, but when Jiang Lin got up from the ground, he still felt like his brain was in a daze!
"Where is the Grand Master?"
Seeing Jiang Lin looking like he was just waking up from a dream, the little maid said timidly: "Master Taishi was invited to drink tea at the residence of Master Deng in Taichang Temple."
"Steward Jiang, you don't look good! Are you okay?"
Jiang Lin shook his head in a daze: "Let the coachman prepare the sedan, I want to go out!"
The little maid did not dare to delay and hurriedly went to inform the coachman.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Lin appeared in the private room of Huixian Argyle, lying on the bed with his eyes closed to relax.
As everyone knows, there are two major restaurants in Bianjing, the capital city, one is Changchunfang and the other is Huixian Yage.
Among them, Changchunfang is famous for its delicious food and high-end decoration. It is a place where many wealthy businessmen, courtiers and even princes often visit for chatting and planning.
Huixian Argyle is famous for its outstanding musicians, singers and dancers. Countless literati and elegant guests gather here just for romantic affairs.
Jiang Lin is a frequent visitor to Huixian Argyle, firstly because there are not many courtiers who frequent this place, so he avoids the embarrassment of meeting acquaintances.
Secondly, it’s because…
The quality of the girls in Huixian Accord is indeed good.
Less than a quarter of an hour after Jiang Lin arrived here, he heard the box door creaking and being gently opened.
"Meet Mr. Jiang!"
"I am the new musician of Huixian Argyle, and I have made a fool of myself in front of Mr. Jiang today!"
With that said, the woman hugged the pipa, sat on the chair opposite Jiang Lin, and started playing by herself.
Jiang Lin was startled. He didn't expect that the new musician was really just playing the pipa!
In this Huixian Accord, is there such a girl who doesn’t understand the rules?
Jiang Lin wanted to scold him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was shocked by the appearance of the woman opposite him!
It was a small face that was so plain that it was almost plain. On the beautiful oval face, a pair of round eyes were pure and clear, without any distracting thoughts.
The long eyelashes cast a shadow on her cheeks, adding a touch of tranquility to her.
Jiang Lin has been in and out of Huixian Argyle for many years, and has seen many different kinds of girls, the coquettish, the passionate, the bold and unrestrained...
However, he has never seen this girl who is as clear as a gurgling mountain spring!
Her spotless temperament was so eye-catching that Jiang Lin felt in a daze that such a clean girl should not appear in such a smoky place.
And the sound of her pipa seemed to have magic power, instantly dispelling the distress and annoyance in Jiang Lin's heart.
It was a wonderful feeling that Jiang Lin had never experienced in the midst of thousands of flowers for many years!
At that moment, he fell.
"May I have your name?"
"Back to Mr. Jiang, my name is Xiuyue."
Xiuyue...
It matches her temperament very well.
Jiang Lin's eyelashes trembled slightly: "From now on, you don't need to serve other guests anymore."
"Do you understand?"
Xiuyue knew the rules of Huixian Accord, and she understood that Jiang Lin was going to spend money to hire her.
She hurriedly put down her pipa, stood up and saluted Jiang Lin.
"yes!"
"Go back to Mr. Jiang, I know!"
…
"Say it."
Daliang Palace, inside the fourth prince's bedroom.
Song Huan folded his arms and looked calmly at Su Yuru, who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.
If she was indeed smart enough, she should be able to figure out the stakes at this moment.
Of course, if what she told her was slightly different from what she knew, Song Huan would never be merciful!
Su Yuru lowered her head and thought quickly. She knew that she didn't have much time to think.
The man in front of him was of noble status and held the power of life and death in his hands.
He could have killed himself without any explanation, because for him, killing himself was as easy as trampling on an ant!
However, he did not choose to do this, but chose to give himself a chance to survive.
This made Su Yuru feel more fond of Song Huan!
She raised her eyes to look at Song Huan's sharp eyes. After much thought, she still asked tentatively: "Fourth Prince, I can tell you the whole truth!"
"but……"
"Can you agree to a condition?"
Song Huan found it a little funny.
Is the woman in front of me crazy?
Has she still not figured out who the big and small kings are?
"No." Song Huan refused without blinking or thinking, "You have no right to negotiate terms with me!"
"The king's promise to spare your life is already showing mercy outside the law."
"Are you still negotiating terms with me?"
Su Yuru did not flinch: "Your Highness, you might as well listen to my conditions first and then decide whether to agree or not!"
Looking at the cunning smile of the woman in front of him, Song Huan finally understood why Li Pingan sent her to be an undercover agent next to him.
Under such a situation, Su Yuru could still negotiate terms with herself calmly and in an orderly manner.
It is enough to show that this woman's psychological quality is not generally strong!
And Song Huan couldn't help but feel a little curious.
It can be seen that she is very confident.
I don’t know what kind of conditions would make her feel that she would definitely agree!
"Okay, then I will give you one more chance."
"Tell me, what are the conditions?"
Su Yuru smiled sweetly: "Your Highness, my conditions are very simple."
"I hope His Highness can continue to keep me by your side and let me be His Highness's maid!"
