Chapter 511: Leaving a Shadow

The Ninth Prince understood that Jiang Lin would not give up easily, and he also knew that the other party would definitely send people to follow him. Wasn't he the same?

However, it depends on which side's people are hiding more secretly and how much of the other side's affairs will be seen. It depends on the strength of both sides.

"Ninth Prince, why don't we just let Prince Jiang show up? By then, even if the Emperor wants to protect him, the evidence is irrefutable and he won't be able to defend himself no matter how he tries."

The Ninth Prince already knows that the Emperor wants to summon Jiang Lin back to the capital, and the Emperor will read this imperial edict at court tomorrow.

The people around the Ninth Prince couldn't help but want him to seize this opportunity. Even if they couldn't kill Jiang Lin, it would be enough to take off a layer of skin from him.

However, the Ninth Prince obviously did not think so, and the person who proposed it was hard to guess.

The Ninth Prince understood his thoughts and chuckled, "Wouldn't that be rather dull? I'm still waiting to see the show! The protagonist can't end up like this so soon."

Although the sun was shining brightly at the moment and the Ninth Prince was smiling, the person next to him felt a chill and thought that there was something eerie about the Ninth Prince.

However, he didn't dare to say this to the Ninth Prince, so he could only respond with a smile.

"Alright." The Ninth Prince was annoyed by his pretense. "Go down and have someone keep a close eye on Jiang Lin."

"Yes!" The man felt relieved and ran away after taking the order.

The Ninth Prince scoffed at his behavior. He had been following him for so long, but he still behaved in such a disgraceful manner. It was time to replace him.

The Ninth Prince inevitably thought of An Feng, who was very loyal to Jiang Lin, and he lacked such a person around him.

At the beginning, the Ninth Prince wanted to persuade An Feng to rebel and work for him, but the other party refused to move. The Ninth Prince was dissatisfied and took away one of his arms as a punishment.

After that, before he had tried many methods, Anfeng was rescued by Anliu. The Ninth Prince had never taken this matter to heart.

It’s different this time. If he catches An Feng again, things won’t be so easy.

An Feng was quietly appearing around the Ninth Prince at this time, and was able to see all his actions. He just saw the Ninth Prince carrying something and walking to a place.

An Feng was no stranger to the place, and he was furious when he saw it. Fortunately, someone next to him held him back, so An Feng did not rush to the Ninth Prince in a moment of impulse.

"An Feng, what happened just now?" The secret guard next to him was still in shock.

An Feng had never made such a mistake before. The murderous intent in his eyes just now was undisguised, which frightened the secret guards.

"Nothing." An Feng said in a hoarse voice.

The secret guard thought it would be strange if nothing happened. With such a strange reaction, the secret guard must let Jiang Lin know, otherwise it would be too dangerous for him to carry out the mission alone.

An Feng's mind was in a mess, and he naturally didn't think about this level. So when Jiang Lin asked him about this matter, An Feng was caught off guard and even wanted to beat up the secret guard.

Jiang Lin saw the flash of annoyance in his eyes and frowned.

"Anfeng, don't you want to talk about it?" Jiang Lin said in a cold voice.

An Feng's body stiffened, then he looked up at Jiang Lin, "Master, I... I'm not sick!"

Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment, then all the anger that had been building up within him vanished. "I didn't say you were sick, so why did you lose control?"

An Fengshi didn't want to mention it, but the person in front of him was Jiang Lin, so he had to mention it.

So, An Feng stammered and spoke incoherently, and one sentence could almost be broken into three.

Jiang Lin frowned as he listened, but did not interrupt him because he had a guess in his mind, and An Feng's words were confirming his guess step by step.

When the secret guard told Jiang Lin about this incident, he mentioned that the Ninth Prince took the cat in for a long time, and when he came out, there were bloodstains on his clothes, but the Ninth Prince looked very happy.

This made Jiang Lin wonder what kind of inhuman torture An Feng had suffered at that time.

"Is that all?" Jiang Lin asked after hearing what An Feng said, which could have been said in just three or five sentences.

An Feng nodded, and added solemnly, "That's all."

Jiang Lin sighed in his heart. An Feng's words were too simple. He did not mention what kind of punishment he had suffered. He only said that one of his arms was chopped off there, which was why he was so angry.

"Anfeng, you..."

Before Jiang Lin could say anything, An Feng urgently assured him, "Master, I will never make mistakes again. I can hold it in."

"I..." Jiang Lin flicked his sleeves lightly, "Never mind, I don't blame you."

An Feng naturally realized it, so he was even more ashamed to face Jiang Lin. To An Feng, a person should not be so shy. Isn't it just that he lost an arm?

On the battlefield, An Feng had seen all kinds of injuries, but when it came to himself, he would be a little pretentious.

"Master, I'm sorry to trouble you, but this is indeed my mistake. I will pay attention to it in the future." An Feng said.

Jiang Lin blinked. He was a little hesitant, but he still mentioned it to An Feng, "An Feng, you don't need to follow the Ninth Prince tomorrow."

An Feng looked up suddenly, his eyes full of disapproval.

"Master." An Feng shouted.

However, Jiang Lin had already spoken and made the decision, and he would not regret it.

No matter how dissatisfied An Feng was, he always believed in Jiang Lin's words. After a moment of resistance, An Feng lowered his head, clenched his right hand, and gritted his teeth to obey the order.

"Master, if there is nothing else, I will go down first." An Feng lowered his head and never raised it again, and then said this.

Jiang Lin wanted to help An Feng resolve this issue, but heart-to-heart talks were an area they were not very familiar with, so he let An Feng go.

"Anfeng." Jiang Lin said behind Anfeng as he walked to the door, "Don't keep everything in your heart. If you can't talk to me, you can talk to Anliu.

Upon hearing this, An Feng didn't turn around. He replied in a deep voice, "I understand," and walked away.

Jiang Lin looked at the direction he left in silence for a moment, and then left as well.

Qin Xiangnuan was in the room with her eyes closed at that time. After Jiang Lin came in, he did not wake her up, but stared at the things on the table in a daze.

When Qin Xiangnuan opened her eyes and saw the figure, she was very shocked. Jiang Lin really gave her enough sense of security. She could do whatever she wanted in their territory without worrying about being discovered.

"Are these all prepared for An Feng?" Jiang Lin noticed Qin Xiangnuan's abnormality at the first moment, and turned around to ask her the moment she opened her eyes.

Qin Xiangnuan nodded.

After Jiang Lin turned around, his attention was attracted by the thing in Qin Xiangnuan's hand.

"This..." Jiang Lin raised his eyes, "This is so real it's hard to tell the difference."

Qin Xiangnuan smiled, "But it also has many functions that need to be debugged, and it also requires An Feng's strong will."
