Lin Yunshu crossed his arms and had a glimpse of the dog-eat-dog situation that Xiao Yiqing would have with His Highness the Third Prince.

At this moment, a gentle and young voice came from Lin Yunshu's side, interrupting Lin Yunshu's thoughts.

"Miss Lin Er, come and sit."

Lin Yunshu turned around and saw the Crown Prince sitting next to Xiao Wu Jiu. He had a big piece of watermelon in his mouth. The maid next to him was holding an umbrella for him to block the not bright sunlight.

He also held a nondescript peacock fan in his other hand and muttered: "It's still a bit hot today."

A pun.

Lin Yunshu's lips curled up, and he accepted Taifu's invitation, sat down next to Xiao Wujiu, and then said, "It's what Taifu said."

“There’s quite a bit of excitement this early spring.”

The generals around them looked at each other in confusion. Feeling the cold wind coming out, they tugged on their collars and whispered to each other in confusion.

"Why is it so hot here? It's such a cold day. What are Taifu and Miss Lin Er talking about? Could they be sick?"

"I don't know, it feels weird."

When the Taifu heard these words, he didn't take them to heart. Instead, he paid great attention to Lin Yunshu.

Taifu had grown up with Xiao Wujiu since childhood, so he naturally knew that his "fiancée" had a bad reputation.

It's just that his friend has always been very protective, and most of his words were protective of Lin Yunshu.

But those bad reputations still fell into the ears of Taifu Li.

Speaking of which, he also felt aggrieved for his friend.

This is Xiao Wujiu, the God of War in the entire Tianchen!

Who doesn't know how much the Holy Emperor trusts his younger brother? The stability of Tianchen is mostly due to Xiao Wujiu's reputation as the God of Killing, which prevents the surrounding powers from stepping forward.

It was Lin Yunshu who didn't know good from good and didn't regard his friend as a treasure. Instead, he took a fancy to Xiao Yiqing's embroidered pillow.

Although his good friend is a bit arrogant, has a gloomy face, has a weird temper, and is coy...

But he was extremely partial to Lin Yunshu.

However, Lin Yunshu was stunned and did not look at Xiao Wu Jiu.

Mistaking a straw bag for a pearl.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, really blind.

Taifu Li used to think so too, but now it seems that rumors are really untrustworthy. Rumors can kill people.

It was obvious that Miss Lin Er was very smart. She immediately picked up on what she said and understood the deep meaning of her words.

When sitting next to Xiao Wu Jiu, a burly man, he was extremely petite and looked like he was being fiercely protected by Xiao Wu Jiu.

His eyes did not fall on Xiao Yiqing for a moment.

What a wonderful person.

Taifu Li wanted to continue to look at Lin Yunshu, but his attention was attracted by the fruit plate that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Xiao Wujiu's voice was colder than the slightly harsh weather, and the words he spoke had a biting feeling: "Noisy."

Seeing this, Taifu Li rolled his eyes, pulled the fruit plate in front of him without noticing anything, and said angrily: "Yes, yes, yes, I am noisy, you are the most pure and pure."

Lin Yunshu then looked at Taifu Li in surprise.

I had heard that Taifu Li and the Prince Regent had a good relationship in the past, but I never thought that the relationship between the two could be so good.

Lin Yunshu looked at the school ground thoughtfully. The most attractive figure inside was the prince with a tall and straight posture.

His actions were a little awkward, but he did not lose his etiquette. He was a man as good as jade, and a good son like no other in the world.

So, in fact, Xiao Wu Jiu is optimistic about the prince and wants to support the prince to rise to power?

But soon, Lin Yunshu denied this idea.

Xiao Wujiu is not someone who supports any prince.

He was just guarding the throne.

Only in this way will the Holy One always trust him.

Lin Yunshu figured this out and restrained other thoughts. Instead, he wholeheartedly watched them playing Cuju.

The Taifu on the side has always been a person who doesn't take things too seriously when it comes to watching the excitement. He approached Lin Yunshu again and asked in a biting tone: "Who does Second Miss Lin think will win?"

Who will win?

Lin Yunshu knew that this Taifu Li was not as frivolous as he appeared to be.

How could a person who could always stand behind Xiao Wu Jiu and escape unscathed when Xiao Wu Jiu's situation was over in his previous life, how could he be a brainless idiot who only knew how to flatter!

So Lin Yunshu thought for a while and then said with certainty: "The prince will win."

Yes.

The prince will win.

He is also the only winner.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Yunshu finished speaking, Prince Edward and the others scored a goal.

There were earth-shaking noises and cheers all around, covering the ugly faces of King Cheng and others.

Lin Yunshu didn't miss it. She saw Xiao Yiqing's sinister expression flashing across the high platform.

She grabbed Xiao Wu Jiu beside her and her tone was unprecedentedly cautious.

"My lord, let them rest."

Xiao Wujiu did not immediately agree to Lin Yunshu's proposal.

He just stared at Lin Yunshu with a pair of deep eyes, as if looking at someone through Lin Yunshu.

Lin Yunshu was a little chilled by his look.

I always felt that Xiao Wu Jiu's eyes were not on him, but on him missing something.

Just as she was about to take her hand back, she heard Xiao Wujiu's cold voice: "Okay."

Soon, the attendants hidden among the crowd filed in, checked their master's clothes, and looked at their armor.

Just as everyone was getting ready to start the second half, someone suddenly called a stop.

Xiao Yiqing, who had been standing steadily just now, suddenly fell down in front of everyone, vomiting blood in his mouth, and his eyes were a little blurry.

The guard who stopped Lin Yunshu yesterday hurried to Xiao Yiqing's side, his expression concerned and unfailing.

Obviously, this Cuju kicking game cannot continue.

After all, Xiao Yiqing looked like he was obviously poisoned.

He poisoned the prince in public, and the place was in Kyoto. The person who poisoned him didn't take everyone seriously.

Lin Yunshu thought this in his heart and said it directly.

The people present were naturally not ignorant, and they could probably guess what was going on.

Mr. Li took a sip of the sake in his hand and said slowly, "I can't afford to lose."

Lin Yunshu nodded.

Yes.

They really can't afford to lose.

This means that he is about to lose, so he poisons himself to end the game.

In this way, neither the Crown Prince nor the Third Highness will lose.

It not only disgusts the prince, but also allows His Highness to see his "determination", which can be regarded as surrender.

Xiao Yiqing, Xiao Yiqing.

You really are still so vicious.

He can even treat himself with such cruelty.

At this moment, a vision suddenly occurred.

A slender figure rushed out from the corner, knelt directly in front of Lin Yunshu, and spoke with tears in his eyes.

"Second sister! Please help me!"
