Chapter 509: Clear and Concise

Qin Xiangnuan's words touched Jiang Lin. He... had actually been looking for a reason, but today, he was unwilling to look for it anymore.

Jiang Lin was also worried that the answer he would eventually find would not make him feel at ease, and might even cause some jokes.

His own background is not that important, and Jiang Lin does not need the family affection that does not exist.

Therefore, Jiang Lin felt a little confused at this time. There were clearly some fogs on the road he was moving forward, blurring his direction.

After Qin Xiangnuan finished speaking, she didn't hear Jiang Lin's voice. She looked over curiously and saw that he looked a little dazed.

"Jiang Lin?" Qin Xiangnuan was puzzled and thought about what she had just said. She didn't realize what could have caused such a reaction from him.

Jiang Lin didn't hear Qin Xiangnuan's voice at first. It was only when Qin Xiangnuan called out to him a few more times and stood face to face with their eyes only an inch apart that Jiang Lin blinked and gently waved away the mist.

"Are you okay?" Qin Xiangnuan asked him with a frown.

Jiang Lin shook his head reflexively, but saw Qin Xiangnuan looking at him with suspicion.

"I just thought of something." Jiang Lin said softly.

Qin Xiangnuan stepped back a little. She had never seen such a confused look on Jiang Lin's face before. Seeing that Jiang Lin had no intention of hiding it, she started to ask.

"Nuannuan." Jiang Lin was still hesitant, but it was not because he was unwilling to say it, but because he didn't know how to start.

Jiang Lin thought about it, and Qin Xiangnuan was patient and didn't urge him.

"I..." Jiang Lin hesitated, finding a way to speak, "I don't know what the eunuchs around the Ninth Prince want to do now, and I don't even know what I will end up doing in this situation."

Qin Xiangnuan still frowned. She felt a little uncomfortable with Jiang Lin's indecision.

"I don't quite understand what you're saying." Qin Xiangnuan said hesitantly, "I particularly remember that you had a plan. If I'm not mistaken, going to the border was the beginning of all your plans, right?"

Jiang Lin's eyes widened slightly. Qin Xiangnuan's guess was correct, but "I'm undecided about what I was thinking before today."

Qin Xiangnuan's eyebrows moved, and finally settled into an upward arc. She raised her chin towards Jiang Lin and said, "Tell me about it."

"I... wanted to fight with Gu Mingqi before, and I also wanted to take revenge on the emperor and find out my own life experience." Jiang Lin said slowly.

As Jiang Lin was talking, Qin Xiangnuan was also thinking along. Now that Gu Mingqi was gone, this was considered a completion. The emperor was still alive, but he was not living a good life now. Although it was not Jiang Lin's fault, but...

The result always reaches the definition of revenge, as for life experience.

Qin Xiangnuan's eyelids twitched, as if she understood why Jiang Lin suddenly became like this after hearing her words.

However, Qin Xiangnuan did not intend to change what she had said. She believed that the future was not important. People's eyes were always on the front and should not be bound by the past.

"Is there nothing else?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.

Jiang Lin frowned. Qin Xiangnuan asked the same question he had just asked himself. Jiang Lin wanted to shake his head.

But Qin Xiangnuan was also looking for an answer for him. Even before Jiang Lin spoke, Qin Xiangnuan seemed to list some options in front of Jiang Lin, and he just had to choose one.

Jiang Lin heard Qin Xiangnuan talking tirelessly, "You are helping the people on the border to find peace. No, not just those on the border. If you want, you can ensure the safety of all the people."

"You are fighting against the Ninth Prince, who is capable of doing anything crazy. You are preventing him from committing more evil."

"You led the Secret Guards to accomplish many things that ordinary people couldn't do, and you also gave the Secret Guards an opportunity to demonstrate their value."

"Your presence makes many people feel at ease..."

Listening to Qin Xiangnuan's increasingly heartwarming and touching words, how could Jiang Lin not be touched? While Qin Xiangnuan was still racking his brains, Jiang Lin laughed out loud.

It also interrupted what Qin Xiangnuan was about to say.

Qin Xiangnuan glanced at Jiang Lin unhappily, "I haven't finished yet!"

"That's enough." Jiang Lin's lips curled up. Qin Xiangnuan's words made him think that the ultimate goal was not important.

Everything Jiang Lin does now is meaningful. Although it is not what Jiang Lin expected, Jiang Lin does not reject it, and that is enough.

"So do you know what to do now?" Qin Xiangnuan asked with a raised eyebrow.

Jiang Lin still shook his head, and Qin Xiangnuan was about to open her mouth when she saw this.

Jiang Lin quickly stopped her, "Nuannuan, I don't need to know. I'm doing what I need to do now."

Qin Xiangnuan stared at Jiang Lin and found that his expression had returned to its former brilliance. She swallowed the unfinished words and nodded slowly.

"That's great." Qin Xiangnuan said.

Jiang Lin got up and confirmed her words, "That's very good."

Jiang Lin had thought it through clearly and thoroughly, but the young eunuch beside the Ninth Prince was not the same.

"Master, we've been following him for a few days and have confirmed who he's looking for. He also secretly met with a few people yesterday, and those people left the capital right after they came out. We've already sent people to follow him."

Anliu spoke to Jiang Lin excitedly.

"Just follow closely." Jiang Lin said, "Is he leaving the palace just to look for someone?"

"It seems so at the moment." Anliu frowned. It seemed that the eunuch had no contact with the Ninth Prince since he left the palace, as if they had nothing to do with each other.

Qin Xiangnuan said, "Then this person is very important to him. He must be the first to intercept him."

The undercurrent is certain.

"What is the Ninth Prince doing now?" After the news from the border reached the capital that day, the Ninth Prince did not make a big deal out of it, and Jiang Lin's existence remained unknown to others.

An Feng replied, "The Ninth Prince has been going out with some officials after court these days, and the officials accompanying him are different every day."

"How many factions are there in the court now?" Qin Xiangnuan knew nothing about this.

Jiang Lin had some idea in his mind. He took the list from An Feng and knew the temperament and character of most people clearly.

"Miss Qin, the appearance of the Ninth Prince has undoubtedly disrupted the situation in the court. Now is the time for them to form factions, and it is still unclear." An Feng responded.

Qin Xiangnuan raised her eyebrows, thinking that sowing discord would be very effective.

Jiang Lin glanced at the names and pointed at An Feng, saying, "Send someone to protect these people. Record their daily movements, no matter how big or small, and investigate everything thoroughly. As for the rest..."

An Feng listened carefully, wrote down everything, and then carried out the instructions after Jiang Lin finished speaking.
