"Yue'er! So where should we look for the golden gourd now?"

King Lin wrote and meditated, but he was troubled.

"As I said, the only way is to go to Xiahou Mansion, and even if you go to Xiahou Mansion, you may not be able to find the golden gourd. Alas..."

Xia Lingyue sighed, followed by a lonely look on her face.

"...I suddenly remembered something, and I haven't finished it yet!"

King Lin put down his pen and ink and smiled: "What's going on?"

"Do you still remember? When we found the golden key on the Lingxiao Tower that day, didn't we find a man wearing a tasseled hat hiding under the stone steps and eavesdropping?"

"Yes! So what?"

King Lin turned over the bamboo slips in his hand and responded to her without raising his head.

"Why do I feel that the person who overheard our conversation that day might not be Qiao Yun?"

Xia Lingyue's words reminded King Lin, who frowned and put down the bamboo slips in his hand to ponder this issue.

"How can we see it?"

Xia Lingyue said: "Have you forgotten? I didn't find the tasseled hat when I was packing up Qiao Yun's belongings!"

King Lin thought for a moment, then said with doubt on his face: "If this is really the case, then things will be very troublesome."

"So, why did Xia Ruyan suddenly visit Linluan Palace? Is it really because she wanted to see us?"

Xia Lingyue's words were like another sharp stab in King Lin's heart, and King Lin was immediately alert.

"Yes! We are indeed very close!"

This time it should have been Xia Lingyue's turn to make fun of King Lin, but the two of them were no longer in the mood.

"Could that tasseled hat be thrown away by Qiao Yun later?"

Xia Lingyue waved her hand: "Impossible!"

King Lin was stunned: "Are you so sure?"

"Because Qiao Yun will not do this. Judging from the hard times he has experienced since childhood and the many years of getting along with him, you should be able to feel the habits he has developed. He is a very frugal person, so he will never do it.

That’s what it does!”

Xia Lingyue's words were indeed reasonable, and King Lin naturally nodded in acquiescence.

"Then by saying that, doesn't it mean that what we said that day has now reached Xia Ruyan's ears, right?"

King Lin asked hesitantly.

"This is not absolutely certain, but I think it is possible that Xia Ruyan already knows about it!"

Xia Lingyue pondered for a moment and then remembered the tasseled hat.

"Xia Ruyan is signaling a challenge to me. It seems we should be ready to deal with her as soon as possible!"

King Lin thought for a while: "That being said, as long as she doesn't offend us, we'd better wait and see what happens!"

"What I want to say is, if that tassel hat really belongs to someone else, then I'm afraid there will be..."

When she said this, she looked around.

"It seems that in this situation, we really need to be careful in everything!"

King Lin was stroking a leaf in his hand, but the frown between his brows was getting tighter and tighter.

"What I mean is that you'd better find a way to find the spies around you, otherwise if you continue like this, you will really have long nights and lots of dreams!"

Xia Lingyue wiped the sweat from her forehead, and her soft cheeks already had a unique pink rhyme.

"It doesn't matter! Just spend it like this for now! In short, as time goes by, the fox will eventually show its tail!"

While the two were talking, someone suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, the princess outside the door wants to see you!"

"Oh! Just go back to her and say that the king is not here!"

Before King Lin finished speaking, there were already two harsh shadows in the corners of her eyes.

"My concubine pays homage to the prince!"

While talking, Yao Xianxiu was already standing at the front door of the palace.

"What? Don't you recognize me?"

When King Lin saw her, he was no longer as disgraced as when he saw her on weekdays.

I saw her wearing elegant and luxurious brocade clothes, the makeup on her face was exquisite and beautiful, and her sweet smile was intoxicating.

"you………………"

King Lin was slightly stunned when he saw her outfit like this, but he immediately turned his head away.

"Oh! I saw my concubine and pretended that I didn't see it. You really made me sad!"

Yao Xianxiu looked around at the scene in the palace garden, and took advantage of Xia Lingyue's absence to start using all her abilities.

"If you have nothing to do, I advise you to leave quickly!"

King Lin buried his head and continued to play with his flowers and plants without raising his eyelids.

"I only hope that I can give me death! I wonder if my conscience will hurt?"

Yao Xianxiu saw that he was not getting enough, so she ran directly to him and questioned him.

"Master! Do you know that since I married into the palace for you, I have been forced to live in the cold palace? Do you know what it is like to live in the cold palace? Don't you even have a little bit of compassion?

Since I am the legitimate Princess Lin, and I live in the palace where your late mother lived before her death, I would like to ask you, have you even forgotten the hatred of your mother?"

King Lin did not respond directly to her, but continued to play with the flowers and plants in front of him without raising his head.

"This king is...actually, really surprised by your appearance!"

Yao Xianxiu has become insensitive to his words.

So, she stared into his deep eyes, and the resentment and hatred in her eyes caused the scenes of her past to replay in her mind.

………………………………………………………………

"Mr. Lang! Can you promise me you will never leave me again?"

"Well………………"

Yao Xianxiu lay naked on the floor, her clothes were scattered all over the floor, and the light green coat underneath her body was covered in dazzling red.

King Lin, who was sitting aside like a thief, was hurriedly tying his belt, blushing and tilting his head behind him, hesitating and speechless.

Because it was so unexpected! So embarrassing! I didn’t know how to answer her!

"Lang Jun, if you don't promise me, you are not allowed to leave today!"

Yao Xianxiu turned over, and her naked appearance was really eye-catching.

"Ah... no no no! You... you'd better put your clothes on first and then talk!"

King Lin raised his hands to cover his face and retracted his head into his knees like a turtle.

"Well.........Isn't that right! People love you so much, like you so much, and miss you so much. What do you want from them so as not to leave them?"

"I…………"

King Lin hugged his neck tightly, and the guilt in his heart made him look like a rat crossing the street.

"I beg you! Please put your clothes on quickly before we talk!"

"Well... no! Unless... unless you answer a question, they will wear it."

Yao Xianxiu tilted her head, the pretentious look on her face looked very unbeatable.

"Hey... Okay! Okay! Just tell me!"

King Lin still had his back to her, but he was still dressing in a hurry. It was strange that he had been used to being served by others since he returned to the palace, so he hadn't dressed himself for a long time, so of course his movements were clumsy.

"Tell me, is this your first and first time?"

She sounded shy when she asked this question, whether it was pretentious or genuine.

"this…………"

"Oh! You tell me!"

Seeing King Lin's hesitant look, she looked very nervous.

"How do you say this? What's the use of asking this?"

King Lin didn't know whether to use a dumbfounded smile or a tone of laughter. Anyway, he was like an embarrassed patient with terminal cancer.

"Oh! Just say it!"

Yao Xianxiu hugged his waist and asked.

Being hugged by her like this, the hair on Lin Wang's body mixed with goosebumps started to rise again.

"Let me go!"
