Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

"master?!"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at the old man in front of him, and then at the paper kite beside him who spoke respectfully and lowered his eyes slightly.

My eyelids jumped suddenly!

The rickety old man in front of me is actually Zhiyuan's master? !

Why is Zhiyuan's master in Ruyi Tower? !

For a brief moment, Lin Jiangnian's mind was short-circuited. When he came to his senses, he was on guard.

Why didn't the woman in red mention this?

No, she doesn't even know about this? !

Just when Lin Jiangnian was extremely vigilant, the old man in front of him slowly raised his head and glanced at Zhiyuan, nodded slightly, seemingly surprised: "Why are you here today?"

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and said, "Come and see the master."

"Presumably, you didn't come here just to see a bad old man like me, right?"

The old man's eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian in front of him, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.

Zhiyuan was noncommittal, her eyes also fell on Lin Jiangnian beside him, and he hesitated: "Master and His Highness, what are you talking about?"

"I didn't say much at all. Your Highness is interested in martial arts and poisonous arts. As a bad old man like me, I have nothing to do, so I will help His Highness clear up some of his doubts..."

Zhiyuan nodded thoughtfully.

Lin Jiangnian looked at the old man in front of him with some surprise: "Do you recognize me?"

The old man said: "His Royal Highness, how can this old slave not recognize you?"

Lin Jiangnian was stunned: "Then why didn't you mention it before?"

"His Highness didn't reveal his identity, so naturally I didn't expose it."

"..."

Lin Jiangnian fell silent.

He suddenly felt that the old man in front of him was evil-minded!

Lin Jiangnian looked at the old man in front of him, then at the paper kite beside him, and was silent for a moment: "You... are master and disciple?"

Zhiyuan nodded lightly: "Yes."

"When did this happen?"

Zhiyuan's eyes seemed to recall something: "Two years ago..."

Two years ago?

Wasn't that the time when Zhiyuan had just entered Prince Lin's Mansion?

Lin Jiangnian seemed to realize something: "Did this senior teach you your martial arts?"

Zhiyuan nodded slightly.

Lin Jiangnian suddenly looked at the old man in front of him, pretending to be very serious!

He taught Zhi Yuan all his martial arts, yet he still pretends to be an ordinary person?

What a hidden look!

Zhiyuan seemed to know Lin Jiangnian's thoughts and shook his head gently: "Master, he doesn't know martial arts."

Lin Jiangnian was startled. He didn't know martial arts?

"Then how does he teach you martial arts?"

"Why can't you teach?"

"Can?"

"able!"

Looking at Zhiyuan's affirmative gaze, Lin Jiangnian fell silent. He seemed to realize that he had entered some misunderstandings.

Is there really no saying that you can’t teach people if you don’t know martial arts?

"Master, he is the most knowledgeable teacher in the world today!"

There was a hint of respect in Zhiyuan's eyes.

The old man in front of him waved his hand: "What a learned teacher, this bad old man like me just read a few more books when I have nothing to do. As for your martial arts... With your talent, you don't need my guidance at all... "

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes: "Zhiyuan will always remember the kindness of the master's guidance."

The old man waved his hand again and looked at the two people in front of him: "Since you are here, I, the old man, won't bother you!"

With that said, he slowly stood up, picked up the broom beside him, left, and went to sweep the floor on other floors.

Lin Jiangnian and Zhiyuan were left in place.

Zhiyuan stood beside Lin Jiangnian, silent.

"How did you come?"

Lin Jiangnian then looked at her: "Come to see me?"

Zhiyuan's cold eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian, he seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said: "Yes."

"Is something wrong?"

Zhiyuan asked back: "Why did your highness come to Ruyi Tower?"

"Didn't your master say that? I'm here to see if there are any quick martial arts secrets or any powerful poisoning techniques..."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her and said calmly: "The servants in the house are unreliable. Is it not possible for me to find a way to save my own life?"

Zhiyuan naturally heard the sarcasm in Lin Jiangnian's tone, and it was because of what happened to Lin Kong that day.

She was silent for a moment and said: "Except for some crooked martial arts in the world, there is no quick way to achieve success."

"Crooked ways?"

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows: "Is dual cultivation a crooked way?"

Zhiyuan was silent.

It was not until a long time later that he said silently: "If Your Highness wants to learn self-defense martial arts, you cannot learn these heretical methods. Although these evil methods can indeed quickly improve your martial arts strength in a short period of time, they are also extremely harmful."

"Any crooked approach will definitely have flaws and sequelae, and you will eventually pay a heavy price!"

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her: "Then what kind of martial arts do you think this prince should learn?"

"If His Highness really wants to learn martial arts..."

Zhiyuan glanced at Lin Jiangnian calmly, and then said: "Of course it is the Xuanyang Mind Technique that the prince left to His Highness."

Lin Jiangnian's heart skipped a beat when he heard the name.

Isn't this the purpose of his coming to Ruyi Building today?

His heart was moved, but Lin Jiangnian's expression remained calm: "This Xuanyang mind method can make my son a master?"

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and said: "If His Highness is willing to devote himself to studying, with His talent, he will naturally become a master!"

Lin Jiangnian's eyes lit up slightly: "How powerful a master can he become?"

"Then it depends on how hard your highness works!"

"..."

"Fine."

Lin Jiangnian was very moved in his heart, but he still didn't show it, with an indifferent expression: "Where is the Xuanyang Mind Technique now? Can you show it to me first?"

silence.

Zhiyuan did not respond.

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyes: "What? You don't want to give it?"

Zhiyuan still looked at Lin Jiangnian calmly. After a moment, he asked: "Your Highness, have you really decided to practice martial arts?"

What is the problem?

Lin Jiangnian was wary: "Why do you ask that?"

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes and replied, "Zhiyuan will only hand it over to His Highness if His Highness is ready."

Lin Jiangnian said nothing and stared into Zhiyuan's eyes.

Those bright and small eyes, with deep pupils, are cold and unruffled.

It's hard to describe!

She was always as cool as a sculpture.

It's cool and charming, but it also keeps people away from you thousands of miles away.

As a maid, she has no manner of flattery towards her master... she is not qualified at all!

"You mean, if I am not prepared, you will not hand over the Xuanyang Heart Technique to me?"

Lin Jiangnian asked with narrowed eyes.

Zhiyuan looked into Lin Jiangnian's eyes and nodded calmly.

"My father asked you to do this?"

Zhiyuan was silent and still nodded.

Lin Jiangnian understood clearly.

Sure enough.

This paper kite is really King Lin's spy placed next to His Royal Highness.

What's even more incredible is that King Lin actually trusts her so much?

Is she really just an ordinary maid?

"OK!"

After thinking briefly, Lin Jiangnian nodded: "My prince is ready. Can you give it to me?"

Zhiyuan looked at Lin Jiangnian for a long time, as if confirming something.

It wasn't until a moment later that she reached into her arms, took out a key, and handed it to Lin Jiangnian.

"What's this?"

Lin Jiangnian was slightly startled when he saw the key in her hand.

"Ruyi Building, the key to the seventh floor!"

"..."
