"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wake up, it's time to eat." Jian Yu gently patted Zhou Jinyan's shoulder and called softly.
Eyelashes fluttered and he slowly opened his eyes. Zhou Jinyan's eyes were full of sleepiness. Within a few breaths, his eyes suddenly became sharp and he woke up completely.
——Pretending to be real.
Jian Yu secretly commented on Prince Jing's acting skills.
She knew that the other party was pretending to sleep. Prince Jing was a man with martial arts skills. People who practiced martial arts were more alert than ordinary people. Especially those who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round, Prince Jing, would only be even more alert.
He didn't step lightly, and it was impossible for the other party not to notice.
Zhou Jinyan sat up and leaned on the bed. The maids outside the door filed in with meals. Jian Yu skillfully picked up the bowls and chopsticks and fed Prince Jing.
As they ate bite after bite, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was full of weirdness.
This meal was surprisingly efficient. Jian Yu fed Prince Jing whatever he wanted. Instead of being picky as before, he was extremely cooperative.
After the meal was finished and the table was moved away, Jian Yu stood up and saluted: "I have a severe headache today. I will go back to the house to rest. Your Majesty will send someone to tell me something."
Zhou Jinyan nodded blankly, "Oh."
Looking at Jian Yu's leaving figure, he was a little startled, and just... left like this?
*
When Jian Yu returned to the house, she lay weakly on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she had not thought about how to face Zhou Jinyan, but when it was time for feeding, if she didn't go, it would be too much for her to have three hundred taels of silver here.
She couldn't figure out why the dignified Prince Jing was pretending to be a dog assassin and staying by her side. If the identities of the two were related, would his previous identity with Tang Fu be true?
Although it was not mentioned in the original work, did the villain actually have contact with the heroine secretly?
Combining the identities of Prince Jing and the Dog Assassin into one, there are too many doubts and tricks. If you make a mistake, you will be wrong every step of the way. You must not act rashly!
However, with Prince Jing's mind, the incident about the Jianghu trio must have alerted him. He was still a little reckless and exposed his thoughts too early.
When going to the east courtyard, Jian Yu was fully prepared, thinking that if Prince Jing would break the window paper or question her about some of her previous affairs...
Either way, it would be very difficult for her.
It has to be said that Prince Jing still knows something about Jian Yu. When she went there this time, she really had the idea that if she couldn't explain it, they would break up.
As a result, she didn't mention it, and neither did Prince Jing.
Jian Yu didn't know what the other person was thinking. She had a muddled mentality and just took it one day at a time.
Maybe, should I talk to my grandfather? Jian Yu soon denied this. It would be okay if her grandfather didn't know. If he knew something happened, Prince Jing would not show mercy to his grandfather.
If you say this to your grandfather now, you are harming him. When your grandfather faces Prince Jing, no matter how powerful his mind is, he will be completely defeated. Who let Prince Jing have the emperor behind him!
After thinking about it, Jian Yu decided not to say anything. At the moment, the other party had no intention of taking her life. She would wait and see. She didn't know what she was waiting for, she just wanted to wait and see.
Thinking about this in her mind, Jian Yu sighed heavily, how could she survive until her head was pinned to her waistband?
Even if it were another person, she would dare to challenge him, but the villain was assigned to her from the very beginning, a character who can overwhelm the protagonist in the later stage!
She first figured out the relationship between the dog assassin and Prince Jing, and then looked at where the other party's bottom line was. She had to think of a good reason for the dog assassin. In fact, up to now, the persona she had set up as a beloved person had not fallen down!
You can still play along. Lying on her side on the bed, Jian Yu was thinking about the mess in her mind and stared at the beams unconsciously...
The rafters, the rafters!
Jian Yu's eyes lit up, she risked her life and took a gamble! The bet is won, my life is saved, and then I have the opportunity to plan the rest.
If you lose the bet, the worst thing you can do is lose your identity as Princess Jing, and you can save your life even if you ask yourself to step down!
Jian Yu sat up from the bed and looked at her wardrobe, her eyes as dazzling as flames.

"The princess is rubbing the rope."
In the east courtyard, Wei Bai reported.
It was a scorching hot day and Jian Yu, who was afraid of the cold, had been sleeping with the window open these days. Wei Bai, who was ordered to monitor the princess's every move, stood on the tree and could just see what the princess was doing in front of the desk.
Princess Jing cut a cloak into strips with scissors, and then twisted them together to form a strong rope.
Zhou Jinyan was confused, why was he rubbing the rope? He said with a deep breath: "We will investigate again and report again."
After Jian Yu finished feeding and left, Zhou Jinyan asked Wei Bai and another secret guard to monitor Jian Yu's every move. If there was any abnormality, one person would come back to report it, and the other would continue to monitor.
Make sure Jian Yu is always in their sight.
Not long after the guard here left, another secret guard came back. The two of them had obviously worked shifts. He looked quite nervous and said: "Master, the princess will hang the kneaded cloth rope on the beam. She is sitting on the ground. Looking sad, looking, looking.”
After careful consideration, the secret guard finally revealed his guess: "It looks like he is seeking death."
"absurd!"
Little fox seeking death? It's really a joke. It's probably because the daughter's family is being overly emotional.
He was scolding him like this and ignored it, but the next second Zhou Jinyan got up from the bed, walked back and forth a few times, looked at the secret guard, and then at the sky outside, he took a sip. He pursed his lips and said, "I'll go take a look."
Zhou Jinyan's Qinggong was quite beautiful. Just by turning around, he left the hidden guard two steps behind. When he used Qinggong to step toward the west courtyard, he even pushed most of the hidden guard behind.
The secret guard at the back thought, the master is just tough-talking, look at how anxious he is! He can't even catch up!
Wei Bai was very anxious. He watched the mistress bring a stool, step on it, and put his neck on the rope. His heart almost stopped.
This anger is too great! Will he seek death because his master concealed it? ! Wei Bai was anxious about why the secret guard hadn't come back yet. His eyes were fixed on the stool under Jian Yu's feet. As soon as the princess kicked the stool away, he would immediately throw a stone and break the rope!
"How long has she been standing like that."
Suddenly hearing Zhou Jinyan's voice, Wei Bai was so frightened that he almost fell from the tree.
Because he was too focused on the situation inside the room, Wei Bai didn't notice the people coming from behind. He didn't realize that it was also because his martial arts was superior to Wei Bai's.
"About one stick of incense."
After putting her neck on the rope, the mistress didn't move. She didn't know what she was thinking about. She pulled the rope and dangled from time to time, which made Wei Bai's heart skip a beat every time.
What a dangerous behavior! It's scary to watch.
